SomnambulSm? What is it? Did y0n
ever walk in your sleep? II so, yeu
know Just about as much about this
strange use of the faculties and senses
of the mind and the body as does the
average physician. Somnambulism has
been mystery and matter of discus
sion TO the medical profession since the
DAYS of the ancicnts. They knew as
we'll as we all now know that there Is
such thing as somnambulism or walk
Ing in the sleep. They attempted to eX-
plain it just as modern medical science
has been cndcavoring to explain 1t ever
since Eut as it was then so 1t is now.
There are 50 many explanations that
even the physician is puzzled to decide
which TO accept.

THE INVALlDS HOT-L.
The Ideal Modern Hospital.

1t Is genera(s the Case tat when
some great modern Improvement
of Old methods of business IS put
forward, the world says, How
simple. Why did't somebody think
of it before?' Wien you read of an
"Invalids Hotel" as the modern
hospital ideal, the thought at once
comes, What great improvement.
Why didn't somebody think of 1t
be ore"
The Invalids Hotel ard Surgical
Institute, OF Buffalo N. Y, the
unique model of medical and surg
ical progress. owes its existauce to
its founder, DR.. R V. Pierce, and
the rare combination of busine S
acume and professional ability
which be possesses In marked de
gree.
Most people dread the thought
of the ordinary hospital, however
ben!fcent the ms tuition may be.
In the popular mind the hospital Is
next to prison: a place where
identity Is lost, and man or wo-
men before merely lease" for the
experiments of doctors or surgeons.
With his experience the thought
occurred to DR.. Pierce, why not put
the hospital on hotel basis? Why
not let the patient preserve his in
dividuality and identity and lead an
existence as independent and free
as the condition of invalidism will
allow And SO was born and built
the "Iuvalids" Hotel" whose wait.
ers are white-clothed men and
white,capped women nurses. Here
are no great dreary wards, echotng
with the moaning of the sick, but
seperate rooms, as In an ordinary
hotel, with extraordinary hotel
service, the servants being skilled
physicians and nurses.
The Invalids Hotel and Surgi cal
Institute Is provided with every
modern appliance for the electrical
or mechanical treatment Of disease.
Nearly a score of physicians (each
man a specialist In his Department.
are In constant attendance on the
inmates. Everything that can con.
duce to comfort and home likeness
Is provided by DR.. Pierce for his
guests, and the sights and sounds
and smells of the public hospital
are entirly avoided.
Undoubtedly DR.. Plerce's 1pvai-
ids Hotel and Surgical Institute,
of Buffalo, N. Y, Is the ideal mod
ern hospital.

TREE PLANTING IN ALABAMA.
Eighteen Hundred Acres to Be Plant ed to Pine, Chestnut and oaK,

' ed to Pine, Chestnut and oaK.
 A planting plan has recently been pre- nsred by the Bureau Of Forestry TOT ROO acres of land in Cullman County, Ala. owned by Emil Ahlrichs. and val ned at from SIPS to 8 per acre The planting will be done in several different localities, but all in Cullman County. Work will begin as soon as grown ceases next fall, and will continue through the winter, except in freezing weather The first seasons work will include the planting of LobIolly pine seedlings col lected in the forest on tract Of l6o acres of open woods. Two hundred ana eighty acres will be planted with chest nut and white and post oak. A seed bed will be prepared for the raisin gof Lob lolly pine for tract of $40 acres, as It is considered not advisable to use entire Iy stock collected from the forest.
 All this planting Is based on the fact that while immense quantities of Lob Iolly are being cut in that locality, there is little or no reproduction on the land in question, due chiefly to anual fires set to improve the pasture. MT. Ahlrichs will have a fire patrol system.
 If is purposed also to treat tract Of $40 acres to improve the natural repro duction by the prevention of fires.
 Labor may be obtained at $15 per month, hence the work can be done at very small cost. It is estimated that the plant ing will cost from g to s per acre.
 Loblolly pine is to be planted for the production of lumber chestnut for posts and telegraph poles. and oak for railroad ties

THE MEN AND WOMEN
Who Enjoy the Choicest Products
 of the Worlds Commerce.
Knewledge of what Is Best More I'm. portant Than Wealth With-
 out It.

It must be apparent to every one that qualities of the highest order are neces- sary to enable the best of the products oe modern commerce to attain permanently to universal acceptance. However loudly heralded, they may not hope for world-wide preeminence unless they meet with the general approval, not Of individuals only. but of the many who have the happy faculty of selecting, enjoying and learn ing the real worth of the choicest prod ucts. Their conlmendation, consequently, becomes important to others, since to meet the requirements of the well in- formed of all countries the method of manufacture must be of the most per- feet order and tho combination tho most excellent of its kind. Tho above is true not of food products only, but Is espe- cially applicable to medicinal agents and after nearly quarter of Q century of growth and general use the excellent remedy. Syrup of Figs, is everywhere accepted, throughout the world. as tho best of family laxatives. Its quality is due not only to tho excellence of the combination of the laxative and carmin- alive principles of plants known to act most benefcially on the system and pre- scented in the form of a pleasant and re- freshing liquid, but also to the method
 of manufacture of the California Fig Syrup Co.,, which ensures that uniformi- ty and purity essential in a remedy in- tended for family use. Ask any physi- clan who is well informed and he will answer at once that it is an excellent laxative. If at all eminent in his pros fession and has made a special study of laxatives and their effects upon the sys- tenn he will tell you that it is the best of family laxatives, because it is sim- pie and wholesome and cleanses and sweetens the system effectually, when a laxative is needed, without any un- pleasant aftcr-effccts. Every well-in- formed druggist of reputable standing knows that Syrup of Figs is an excel- lent laxative and is glad to sell it, at the regular price of fifty cents per bot tie. because 1t gives general satisfac- tion, but one should remember that in order to get the beneficial effects of Syrup of Figs it is necessary to buy the genuine, which Is sold in original pack ages only; the name of the remedy Syrup of Figs and also the full name of the Company-California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of every package.
