DOCTOR SOL.
Sunshine One of Natures Most Valu-
able Medicines.

The marvellous energy manifested In
plant life is derived from the sun act
Ing upon the green parts to organize
and vltaliZe the elements Of the earth
and air into living substances The
same energy Of the sunlight is essen
tlal to animal life. The sun bath Is
ROW well recognized and much val
ued therapeutic agent.
In this form Of treatment the whole
body is exposed to the direct action of
the suns rays. Persons who are not
accustomed to exposure to the sun and
individuals who have light bar and
light skins should make the first ex-
posture to the sun of short duration
ten or fifteen minutes. Longer ex
posures are likely to produce sunburn.
No particular harm is done by sunburn
excepting the Inconvenience occasioned
by II. The fermentation of the skin
induced by sunburn protects the skin
from further Injury.
The body may be exposed either in
the open air or before Il window. When
the suns rays are so intense that the
heat Is depressing the heat rays may
be filtered out by means of II blue
screen placed between the patient and
the sun.
After the sun bath cold plunge, a
cold shower. Il cold towel rub or n wet
sheet rub should be administered to
tone the skin and the nerves
In the summer time In hot climate
the sun bath may be very conveniently
taken In an outdoor gymnasium A
sand pile furnishes most appropri-
ate couch, as the heat which 1t accu-
mulates may be utilized as an aid to
induce perspiration when this Is de
sired
Every home should be provided with
a convenient place for taking the out
door sun bath In the summer time and
sun bath indoors during the cold sea-
son.

drawing Rowe's hand possessively
AT our house we do most anything
for the sake Of peace in the family"
she said, withdrawing her hand. but
walking at Morton's side. Attacks
screwed his face into a picture Of dis
content, but trailed on obediently to
his mothers nod, at his sisters other
hand They went aimlessly in and out
among the great tree boles, hating at

oak with richly messed roots. which
grew within twenty yards of the ramp

Rowe leaned against the big stem
and lawlessly locked both arms around
her blue muslin knees. Her hat was
pushed far back, so far 1t framed her
glowing face in blue lowered halo.
Youth, supple grace, limpid innocence,
exhaled from her whole figure. Morton
half knelt three yards OFF, his eyes fast
on her face He tried to speak with
his old airy ease, but in spite of him
self note of concern crept In as he
said, Attacks, my son, aren't there
things you had rather do than stay
here?'
Lots" Attacks answered, standing
on one leg and raising both arms high.
"Then go and do them! want to
find out what they are" Morton said.

A Healthy Year.

While the amount OF sickness in
Canon City for 1903 was unusually
swell compared to former years, yet it
is surprising the amount of medicine
used by the public.
Take for instance the Palace Drug
store, the largest prescription drug
store in the city, whose prescription
business has increased thirty per
cent over last year. This store. which
has three-fifths Of the prescription
business OF Canon, has cause TO feel
proud Of its magnificent business.
The success OF this firms large pre-
scription business is due to the fact
that all prescriptions are filled with
the drugs procured from the most re-
liable manufacturers.
There is no substitution employed at
this store. By this is meant that when
you take your prescription to them to
be filed and they happen to be out of
that particular drug. they will honest
ly tell you so. and not fill it with some
thing else which might produce diff
ferent effect from that which the ply
sician intended.
The Palace Drug store is the only
drug store in the town that buys its
medicines direct from reliable manu-
factu'ers. This not only gives them
the freshest drugs but the advantage
of better prices consequently no pre-
scription can re filled or will be filled
cheaper than they fill it. 1t pays to
get your prescriptions filed at rsli-
able drug store like this; it satisfies
the physician, also the patient, and
above all, you have the satisfaction OF
knowing that you receive the best that
money can buy.
Take your next prescription to the
Palace Drug Store, across from the
Strnthmore. Phone West 5S.
