ASTHMA, CATARRH
and CONSUMPTION
Cured at Last.
Dear Doctor Koch:

Dear Doctor Koch:
Having read in the N. Y. papers and
medical journals Of the wonderful
cures Of y-ur Lymph by inhalation,
was determined TO try it, after doc
tors had failed to cure me, they seemed
to rely on cough medicines which stop
ped up the tuDes OF my lungs, ] was
getting worse all the time, coughing,
splitting blood at times, no appetite,
pains in my side, my husband said l
must do something soon or I would be
in the last stages of consumption and
then no one could cure me- Knowing
that Prof. Koch of Germany, was the
first man to cure consumption at once
put myself under his Lymph in
halation, my improvement was slow for
the first month, but gradually 1 regain
ed my strength, now do my house
work and am in as good health as any
one would wish to be, would advise
any one suffering as I was to try DR..
Koch's Lymph inhalation before it is
to late.-Mrs. E. L. Harding, West
64th street, N. Y. City.
P. S.-For my throat and stomach
trouble used Koch-o-lene which the
doctor furnished me free.
DR.. Koch, 119 West 22d st., Dear Sir:
AS you know was treated for
years for Catarrh and Asthma and a
dry scabby nose that would always
bleed when l blew it, my lungs were
affected as I coughed a great deal,
used Koch-o-lene and INHALED the oily
Lymph into my lungs, to heal them
and destroy the germs, 1 am now as
we'll as any one-Emma Link, ,6S Huron
st., Brooklyn, N. Y.

sIchs In summer.

We always associate Slcds with ice
and snow. and the idea of people sit
ting on an OK sled with a canopy over
their heads to keep off the rays of the
blazing sun and being hauled over the
bare ground by oxen is a queer one.
But that is precisely what they do in
Madeira ANA the Philippines. There
they have the novelty of sled ride
surrounded by flowers. grass and green
trees. with the warblings of birds in
stead of bells as an accompaniment
In these countries sleds were used hun
dreds of years before wheeled vehicles
were thought of. DR.. Karutz, a noted
German scholar who has been investi-
eating the invention of the sled, eX-
plains that primitive man probably ar
rived at the idea of the sled from see
Ing trees slip and slide down the noun
tains. He at first hitched his dog to
the deer that he had just killed, and
both dragged it toward the cave or hut
in which they lived. When he saw
logs slide down the mountain, the idea
of using smooth logs that would slide
over the ground easily when drawn by
himself. or one of his animals was the
next step in the development of the
sled. Primitive peoples, like the Ma
lays of the Philippines and the unpro-
gressive peasants of Madeira, still use
the sleds invented by their ancestors
thousands of years ago.

The Legend of the Arbutus-Sleds In
Summer-Going to School In
an Old Fort.

There are many beautiful legends
which the Indians from ancient times
have handed down to their children,
and they all relate to something in M
ture, either the seasons, the flowers,
birds, trees, fish or tile elements One
which is very pretty tells Of the pass
ing of the winter and the coming Of
spring and how the trailing arbutus.
which sometimes is called the "may-
flower" originated. 1t reads as fol
lows:
Many moons ago theie lived an old
man alone in his lodge beside a frozen
stream in the forest. His locks and
beard were long and white with age.
He was heavily clad in furs for snow
and ice were everywhere The winds
blew wildly through the forest, and the
old man went about searching in the
deep snow for pieces of wood to keep
up fire in his lodge. In despair he re-
turned to the lodge, and. sitting down
by the last few dying Goals, he cried to
Mannaboosho that he might not perish.
And the wind blew aside the door,
and there came in a beautiful maiden.
Her checks were red and made of wild
roses, her eyes We're large and her hair
touched the ground as she walked.
Her hands We're covered with willow
buds, and her clothing was of sweet
grasses and ferns. Her moccasins
We're of white lilies. and when she
breathed the air of the lodge became
warm. The old man said: My daugh-
ter, am glad to see you. My lodge is
cold and cheerless, but it will shield
you from the tempests. Tell me who
you are. | am Manito. l blow my
breath, and the waters of the rivers
stand still" The maiden said. 81
breathe, and the flowers spring up in
all the plains" The old man said
when l walk about, the leaves fall
from the trees at my command the
animals hide in their holes in the
ground, and the birds fly away"
The maiden said. "When 1 walk
about, the plants lift up their heads,
the trees cover their nalledness with
leaves, the birds come back, and all
who see me sing" Thus they talked
and the air became warm in the lodge
The old mans head dropped upon his
breast, and he slept.
Then the sun came out, and blue
bird came to the top of the lodge and
called: "Say-ee. say-ee! | am thirsty"
And the river called back: Il am free
Come and drink"
And as the old man slept the maiden
passed her hands above his head and
he began to grow small. Streams of
water ran out of his mouth, and soon
he was a small mass upon the ground.
His clothes turned to green leaves, and
the maiden, l+neeling upon the ground,
took from her bosom the most precious
flowers and hid them all about under
the leaves. Then she breathed upon
them and said. II give all my virtues
and my sweetest breath, and all who
would pick thee must do so on bended
knee" Then the maiden moved away
through the woods and over the plains.
All the birds sang to her, and wherever
she stepped ana nowhere else grows
the arbutus.

FREAKS OF THE MIND.
Some of the Strange Powers 1t often
Hns Over the VIII.

Iins Over the VIII.
Did you ever think how often you eat
and never stick your fork in your eye?
You always stick your fork in your
mouth. If you ate in the dark, it
would be the same thing. You would
never put out your eye by putting your
fork in it. Why? Because your sub
conscious mind is doing its automatic
duty and knows very well that you eat
with your mouth and not with your
eye.
Many other actions are automatic.
For instance, 20 people have gathered
on street corner to board passing
car The very fact that they are there
means that the car will stop. The first
man has already signaled the motor
man. So do the other 10. And the
same thing happens if ten people
gather to descend in an elevator. The
first conner rings the bell. So do the
other nine-merely automatically. The
sign says "Rlng," so each man takes
this sign to himself and rings.
A shoemaker once had a shop in the
basement Of q large building down
town. The shoemaker worked with
his back to the door. Every time the
door opened the shoemaker turned his
head to the left to see who entered.
For ten years the shoemaker worked
and turned his head almost every hour
in the day. Before many years had
passed the shoemaker's head turned
automatically, and now that man has
spent all the money he has ever made
trying to be cured of this automatic
habit. But his head still jerks, so that
he looks over his left shoulder con-
stantly.-New York Herald.

lures
The boy who goes fishing. with a pail
Of worms for bait, little knows wha a
pleasant hour he might have and make
his outing much more agreeable for the
worms and for the fish. He should
take n look-a scientific peep-at the
contents of hat pail instead of throw
ing them iSnorantly away. After all
his pains in digging for the worms
he and they are scarcely acquaintances.
and yet il we should ask him he must
admit that he has dug up worms In the
springtime year after year n gone
fishing. knowing as little about the
worm when his sport was over as he
did when he started cut
To see really what sort of fellow
the common earthworm is. first put him
into Il bowl of water. He Will soon
wriggle himself free of every particle
of dirt, and you may then make him
more comfortable on some dry, smooth
surface while you study the peculiar
movements of his remarkable body,
which consists of n series of segments,
or rings. all alike In form except at the
two ends. the anterior end tapering to
a blunt point. the hinder end being
broad and flattened.
Watch the worm shorten himself aft
er n long stretch. Projecting from the
sides and the lower part Of each ring
you will see the tiny briStleS, called
seta, with which he manages to walk.
When he lengthens his body, the set3
on the hinder rings prevent him from
stretching backward, because they. IN
pointing backward, stick into the
ground. The worm car therefore
stretch only forward. In the same
manner when he shortens his body b.
set@ In the from rings stick into the
ground. and the hinder part Of the
body is drawn up. He repeats this
process every time he moves along.
That way of walking may seem very
complicated and wonderful, but 1t Is no
more wonderful than that o should
be able to balance your body on your
two feet and walk. without giving a
thought to how you do 1t or to how
wonderful II is that 1t can be done
without thought. Watch n baby's eff
forts to keep his balance in learning to
toddle only a few steps. and you will
understand that walking seems eaSy
to you because You have had SO much
practice.
The usefulness of the worms may be
seen at once when you compare some
of the things that they do with those
that they are unjustly accused of do
ing. They do not destroy the roots of
trees and of plants. They eat half de-
cayed leaves. which they are able to
grind with the muscles of the mouth.
but they have no teeth with which to
knaw. They are useful to man i'm bor-
ing through the ground and looSening
the soil TO make it ready for the fibers
OF plants to enter. Surface soil is more
or less loose, but the subsoil is hard
and compact until the earthworms
have worked IL. Our tallest trees
even would soon die If no opening were
made by the worms for their root fibers
to enter.
To keep worm life In check nature
has provided the birds, and IN one
that has watched the robin dine will
see that there is III danger of the earth
worm supply exceeding the demand

Utilization of U,heaIthfuI Meat.

In France meat unfit for food and
bodies of animals that have died of dis
ease are exclusively used for the manu-
facture OF superphosphates, says The
Sanitarium. The meat is placed in a vat
containing sulphuric acid. which sepa-
rates the resulting heterogeneous product
from the fat. The dead animals are
thrown whole into the covered lead lined
watts full of s%ulphuric acid. II they have
died of anthrax, or CHAMBERS, they are cut
up before being thrown in. In 4S hours
the fat alone remains. and the animaiized
sulphuric acid. which is now SO rich In
heterogeneous substance, is drawn of and
sent through an underground conduit to
the superphosphate factory. Instead of
the insanitary method OF burying such
putrid substances directly in the ground
they are effectually disposed of by the
complete destruction OF the Injurious
germs, and the product Is available for
the manufacture of valuable fertilizer.
