to suit each patient. They relieve the worst
cases in day and quickly cure.
These Treatments are the result of 25
years of close study, careful research and
extraordinary success. They are far In ad-

doctor and few show such faith In their
remedies. Every sufferer should take ad-

North star and D,puer.

The polestar is really the most i'm
portant Of the stars 10 our sky; it
marks the north a. all times; it alone
is fixed in the heavens; all the other
stars seem to swing around it once in
twenty-four hours. But the polestar or
POlaris is not a very bright one, and
it would be hard to identify, but for
the help Of the so-called pointers in
the big Dipper" or Great Bear"
The outer rim of the Dipper points
nearly to Polaris, at distance equal
to three times the space that separates
the two stars of the Dipper's outer
side. Various Indians call the pole
star the Home Star" and 1.-The Star
That Never Moves" and the Dipper
they call the Broken Back" The
Great Bear is also to be remembered
as the Pointers for another reason. 1t
is the hour hand of the woodman's'
clock. 1t goes around the north star
in about twenty-four hours, the re-
verse way Of the hands of watch;
that is, it goes the same way as the
sun, and for the same reason-that +
is the earth that is going and leaving
them behind.-Country Life in Amer
