Liver Medicine occasionally.
The symptoms of Liver Complaint are
we'll known to every one, such as consti-
patton. dyspepsia. loss of appetite, sleep
1essness, headache, a tired feeling and
many others of a similar nature.
Thousands die annually by not needing
the warnings of nature.
Many acquire some chronic disease
from which they never recover.
Many of these could be spared for years
of usefulness. by keeping in the home
some reliable remedy.
We believe that we can convince any
fair-minded person that there is no bet

DR.. TEACHERS Liver and Blood Syrup.
The formula is known. consisting of !:
Bnchu, Hydratfgea. Mandrake, Yellow

SIENNA and Iodide of Potassium. You
know just what you are taking. How
many other formulas of liver medicine
are published9 Ask your druggist about
this. It is already prepared and can be
taken Immediately.
The strength is extracted in the most
skillful manner, certainly superior to any
powdered preparation known. 1--WE also
manufacture Liver Medicine in pow

Liver Medicines requires preparation.)

There is no opportunity for doctor

PROPER TREATMENT OF PNEU-
MONA,

Pneumonia is too dangerous a dis
ease for anyone to attempt to doctor
himself, although he may have proper
remedies at hand. A physician should
always be called. It should be borne
in mind, however, that pneumonia al
ways results from cold or from an at
tack of the grip, and that by giving
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy the
threatened attack of pneumonia may
be warded off. This remedy is also
used by physicians in the tseatment of
pneumonia with the best results. DR..
w. J. Smith, of Sanders, Ala, who is
also druggist, says of it: II have
been selling Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy any prescribing if inssmy prac-

that you eat must be digested, assimi-

THE BATH AND THE SKIN.
lCont1nued from first page.

measure, but it is only for a while
that it impresses the bather as trial.
In short time she Graves it and feels
no shrinking from the tingling of Ice
cold water, even after very hot bath.
The spraying need not last long-only
a minute. 1t is mistake to continue
it until one becomes chilled and loses
the bracing effect. As a matter OF
course, there are some bath rooms
where spray cannot be used, because
of the arrangement of the faucets or
for some other reason. This is a pity,
but it need not oblige one to renounce
the douche. The pitcher to which |
have already referred can be used or
one can adopt the simple expedient OF
a man I knew who used the common
or garden variety o.. watering pot as
means for attaining cold spray.
The stimulation of the skin is pur-
sued by friction with a rough towel.
The ordinary towel will not serve.
Sometimes even a Turkish towel gets
soft and In such cases it is we'll to pass
it through little starch water before
drying 1t. It should never be ironed,
of course.
The ideal method is to take half
an hours rest after the bath and if the
ride has been long and bard one, or
if the course over the links or the con-
test in the tennis courts has been un-
usually fatiguing, 1t is worth while to
give half an hour to repose. But the
healthy, active woman does not usual
ly need 1t un:ess she has rather over
done.
"But," I hear woman say, cit may
all be very we'll to talk about taking
time to battle and to rest for the wo-
man who has been playing golf or ten
mis-, but it is out of the question for
the woman who rides a wheel. Her
machine must be cleaned before it is
put away !"
Not at all, my dear madam or girl.
In the days before the ehainless b;cy-
Gle came into service this might have
been the case. With the driving me-
chanism neatly ENGAGED and amply
protected from mud ard dust and even
from rain, there is no more trouble at
ter return from a ride than there is
in hanging up racket or setting the
bag of golf sticks in the corner.
Always following bath there must
be some precautions adopted against
cold. Even the cold spray and the
hard rub have not done everything
and the woman who sits in draft
when she has just dressed after her
BATH runs great risk. This is espe-
cially the case after exercise, but it is
true also when one has taken the bath
without preceding it by the ride, the
walk or the game. Sometimes one
maryels what has become of the COM
mon sense that was presumably dealt
out to all mortals when they came into
this world.
II have such a mean headache"
said a woman to me the other day.
"The only way I can account for it is
that forgot how soon after dinner it
was last night, and as i was tired /
took hot bath before going to bed
early. have felt rather queer all day.
And she was sensible woman-old
enough to have known better Yet
from sheer carelessness she did thing
which might haye had fatal result.
The frequency with which such a
bath as have described may be taken
is mooted question. There are some
persons to whom 1t is as regular an eve
ry day function, barring Ill health las is
