The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1904-04-07

The three bold comrades advanced
toward the stairway which leads to
the treasures concealed in the
upper regions. As the first of the
trio put his foot on the first stair
human shadow threw it's substan-
tial shape across his visage and the
next instant the robber was lying
on the floor, stunned by a fierce
blow from a hickory club. As the
two others pressed forward they
met a crushing onslaught which
caused them to retreat to the
window. But the widow (for it
was she) followed and rained blow
after blow upon them while they
begged for mercy. After disabling
them the daring woman backed to
the door and shrieked for help.
AS the neighbors focked in and
turned on the lights they saw three
powerful looking men hopelessly
manned lying in their own blood.
When the three burglars recovered
consciousness they were amazed,
and chagrined to learn
that their undoing had been &C.
complished by a woman, only one
woman, and who is but five feet
four inches in height.
The citizens of Cleveland ought
to give that woman a gold medal
or erect a monument in her honor.
One of the most dreaded diseases
of modern life is consumption.
Only within recent years has med
ical science made radical progress
in it's diagnosis and cure. While
the store of knowledge concerning
it's various manifestations is fairly
complete the more conservative
specialists admit that they yet
have important facts to learn, facts
bearing vitality on it's treatment
and cure. At the same time, mod
ern methods have appreciated SO
vastly that when tuberculosis ap-
pears in an individual there is no
longer the hopeless, hysterical
panic in which the relatives once
thought it imperative to indulge.
For if the disease be not too far
advanced, science now holds out
reasonable hope of a cure under
careful hygienic regulations.
Of all the modes of treatment
which have been advanced in
recent years, the "outdoor" method
seems to obtain the best results,
while, at the same time, it is rec
commended by common sense and
economy. At present there
are several "consumptive colonies
in the dry Western states, where
patients live outdoors the year
round, and many surprising cures
have been reported, few if any
cases having not been at least
benefited by contact with the
open air. The theory is that air
untainted by other lungs or those
Of the patient. or the many cor
rupting influences of a partially
closed house should have constant
access to the diseased cells One
important factor of this open air
treatment is that as far as possible
the atmosphere shall be of a dry,
salubrious, even nature. While
under treatment, the patient dwells
either in tent or roughly con-
structed shack with sides SO built
as to give free play to the air. A
warm bed, of course, is to be pro-
vided, as well as protection from
the elements. Here the patient
should and does lead quiet life.

dictates. The appetite is not to be
