WEAKENED MANLY FUNCTIONS.

DR.. Hathaway's treatment for that ter
rible condition of mental and bodily weak
ness brought about by youthful ignorance
and folly or by excuses in later life. is
unlike all others. 1t is not, as most others
are, simply a stimulant which acts for a
few days and then leaves the poor de-
luded patient in worse condition than be-
fore. DR.. Hathaway's treatment cures; 1t
acts on every weakened protion of the
body. 1t builds up nerve tissue and mus
cular strength and revitalizes the whole
body. Every organ is put in such condi-
ton that 1t can perform naturally its prop
er functions. AL unnatural losses and
drains are stopped. The eye becomes
bright and the brain clear. Youth returns
to the prematurely OLD body.
This is what DIR. Hathaway's treatment
does, and 1t does it invariably in every
case, never mind how serious the condi-
ton of the patient.

The earliest authentic record OF bubonic

brought evidence before the Royal Socie-

epidemic of 1141 B. c., described in the
First Book of Samuel Chapters iv-vD was
true bubonic plague. After the Phils-
tines had captured the Ark of the Cove
nant and taken II to Ashdod severe Ill
ness broke out among the people. The
hand of the Lord was heavy upon them

smote them with emerods." The Ark was
afterward taken to Enron. and here again

Hospital Ship Maine.
Comparison Between Male
And Female Nurses.

The Hospital ship Maine, now
lying in dock in London, having
discharged her last patient, leaves
again soon for South Africa, to bring
home another batch of sick and
wounded from Lord ROberts's com
mand. The original intention was,
of course, that the Maine should SER

ital ship, and much curiosity has
been aroused as to the reasons of this
change of plan. The medical autho-
rites who have inspected the ship
say that the change was necessary,
because her fittings and equipment
render the ship more efficient in her
new role. There is also much dis.
cussion in medical circles of the dec.
isicn to replace women nurses on the
Maine bY men. Of course there is
nc such suggestion OF personal unfit
ness against the Maine nurses as is
freely made against some of the am
ateur lady nurses who have fiocked
out to the base hospital in South
Africa. The change is due entirely
to economic reasons. Women take
up more room than men nurses, and
are found physicalle unable to carry
patients up and down from the deck,
as is most desirable in passing
through the tropics.
Moreover, in hospital ship more
or less cramped, there is lack Of
privacy for patient and nurse, which
is the canse of mutual embsrrass- :
ment and inconvenience This is
particularly noticeable in a hastily
fitted-Out hospital ship in which the
on the sick are the only
women on board. On the general
question of men or women nurses,
Mr.. Frederick Treyes, the well-known
just back from South Afri-
ga, says that women are better fit.
