Bedroom Climate.

A person at the age of sixty years
has spent about twenty years of his
life in his bedroom. Have you inves-
tigated the average sleeping room eli
mate? If you were sent as a mission
airy to some distant pestilential spot
the climate of which was as unhealth-
full as that of the average bedroom,
would you not feel that you were risk
ing a great deal for the sake of the
heather?
On the tombstone of tens of thou
sands of those who nave died from
tuberculosis might appropriately be
inscribed, Disease and death ere
invited and encouraged by a death
dealing bedroom climate"
To show hat this is no exaggera-
ton it is only necessary to call at
tention to the fact that fully half of
the tubercular patients placed in out
door consumptive hospitals make a
satisfactory recovery. If fresh air
will cure the disease, it is certainly a
wonderful preventive Of it. 1t is not
more reasonable to deliberately
breathe impure air than it is to drink
impure water or to eat ~unhealthful
food or wear infected clothing.

Some Chinese Baths.

A traveller in Mongolia writes:
There are some hot springs on the
road about twenty miles north of
Chingpeng. The place is named
T~angshan. The arrangements for
those anxious to benefit by their heal
ing properties are very primitive. A
row of twenty to thirty wooden boxes
the size of an ordinary packing case
is ranged beside the road. In these
sit bathers of every age and both
sexes, with their heads ~protruding.
Attendants with buckets continually
refill the boxes from the springs. For
less luxurious bathers there is accom-
mediation in a pool which has been
dug out close by. In this they squat
~scooping up the water and pouring 1t
over their heads with brass basins. 1t
is curious to reflect that establish
ments like Homburg and Aix-les-Bains
have had their origin in such begin
nings."

"Cuticura cured me of a terrible

agony and pain for eight years, being
unable to obtain any help from the

with scabs and my face was like a
piece of raw beef, my eyebrows and

In harmony wlth Nature.

Modern science as well as expert
ence has shown that contact with nat
ural surroundings, especially fresh air,
sunshine and the %ozoning emanations
from growing plants, has marvellous
health-imparting virtues. In these
natural agencies is active the power
which created and maintains all things
and which is constantly communicated
to all living things as the essential
condition OF continued life. The more
closely man comes to Nature, the
more deeply he may drink from the
fountain Of life and healing. To live
in harmony with Nature in the fullest
and truest sense is to live in har'
mony with God; and to live in divine
harmony is to be happy.

One of the most anomalous features
of our Christian civilization is the
slaughter house, especially the abat-
toirs of our great cities, where veri-
table torrents of blood perpetually
flow. the ebbing life Of millions OF in
nooents which die that mar may feast.
Indians are not noted for being
over-sensitive; and particularly de-
spise any exhibition of weakness. The
interior of a slaughter-house, however,
is said to have proved too much for
their powers of s%elf-control. The Chi
cago Record states that "a party OF
fifteen Blackfoot Indians recently Wis
tied the killing room of Armour's
plant. One tainted, three more were
i'll, the rest covered up their eyes.
They we're hurried out of the place

) TUBERCULOSIS in CHTLDKEN 5
Appalling Mortality Among the Little Ones Due /
) to This C~ause-Proper Attention to Health of 9
Mothers Would Save Many Lives :


The number of deaths due to tuber-
culosis is tremendous. When the word
is spoken one instinctively thinks of
pulmonary consumption. This is the
form which attacks cdults and which
we see daily gathering in its victims.
There are other forms, however, more
common in children, that levy trib-
ute upon them without calling atten-
ton to the relationship between these
diseases and consumption Of the
lungs.
DR.. jacob is authority for the state
ment that Tuberculosis kills as many
people, old and young, as ~diphtheria,
Group, w|hooping cough, ~scarlatina,
measles and typhoid fever taken to-
gether." In all of our cities active
steps have been taken to protect the
Ieople from the above named dis
eases. Until quite recently, however,
a few years at most, nothing was done
to reduce the mortality from tuber-
culosis.
Now, however, the attention of the
world, the common people and the
health authorities, has been called to
it's durability and prev%entability.
The causes, the modes of scatter
ing, and the prevention are all being
studied, and an educational campaign
is on to wipe out this white terror"
The children suffer from tubercu-
losis Of the bones, the bowels and
lymph glands. Tub5rcular meningitis
is frequently found in early life and Is
uniformly fatal. Only by careful at
tention to the food and daily habits
can the rising generation be made i'm
mune from these varied forms of tu-
berculOsis.
The fact that e one half of all
babies born die before they reach the
age of five years, proves that the con
stitutional capital" %bequeathed them
is small. Is the proper attention paid
to the diet, exercise and o~ut-of-door
life of the mother? If this were done,
the child would undoubtedly have
greater vitality and could by proper
care and education live above the tu-
berculosis of childhood and of adult
life.

Cause and Cure Of Gastric catarrh.
Chronic congestion of the stomach,
known as gasti-c catarrh, is usually
caused by one of the following errors,
or by all of them put together: Eat
ing too much or too fast; swallowing
food insuficiently m~asticated; the
use of such coarse foods as cabbage,
greens, etc; mustard, peppersauce,
ginger and other condiments and
spices; pastry containing animal fats;
free fats, which lodge in the stomach
and remain there a long time; pork,
griddle cakes and burned fats-these
are the things that produce gastric
catarrh.
The first and most necessary step
in the treatment of this disease is to
remove the cause of the trouble. We
may induce activity of the skin by
hot applications followed by cold or
hot bath followed by a short applica-
ton of cold; lamentations followed
by a short cold application to the
stomach. These treatments are use
full, but the most important factor is
the regulation of the diet. A fruit
diet is best, for the reason that in gas
trio catarrh there is a great accumula-
ton of germs, which are destroyed by
fruit Juice. A well-prepared diet of
toasted bread, %zwieback, granose bis
cult. etc, is also useful in these
cases.

A Cure for colo Feet.

An excellent and simple remedy
for cold feet is the application of cold
water. Step into the bathtub, let the
cold water run in a little faster than
it runs out. Standing in the water,
rub one foot with the other, rapidly,
ten or twelve times. Then change and
treat the other foot in the same man
ner. Keep up this alternate rubbing
for about three minutes. The feet
will have become very red, and as you
step out of the water, you will find
them burning and glowing with the
warm blood brought into them by this
means.

SYSTEM THAT DIDN'T WORK

Some of the feats in remembering

ORIGIN OF FLY FISHING
Sport Dates Back to Classic Times. as
Shown i'm Greek Writings of Third Century

Probably few fishermen are aware
that fly fishing dates back to classic
times, says Forest and Stream. A
minute description of the artificial fly
as used by Macedonian anglers is
given by Aelian, Greek writer of the
third century A. D., as follows:
Between Berea and Thessalonica
there flows a river, Astraeus by name.
and there in it fishes of a spotted col
or; but by what name the people of
those parts call them it is better to
ask Macedonians. At any rate, these
fish live upon the native flies which
fall into the river, and are like no flies
of any other part; one would neither
call them wasplike in appearance, nor
would one reply to question that
this creature is formed like what we
call the humble bees, nor yet like the
honey bees themselves. 1t has really
the proper fashion of each of the
above. In audacity it is like fly, in
size it might be called humble bee,
in color it rivals the wasp and it
buzzes like the honey bees. All COM
mon creatures of this sort are called
horse tails. These pitch upon the
stream to seek the food they affect,
but cannot help being seen by the
fish, which swim underneath.
so whenever one of them sees the
fly floating he comes softly, swimming

for the immunity that they enjoy from

At any rate, the secret of the i'm
munity is one of the most carefully
guarded secrets of the rites of the
Mokis and is kept within a select or
der of the priesthood. DR.. j. Miller
for years annually attended these
dances and made a study of the GER
emonies. The Indians formally adopt
ed him, not only into the tribe, but
advanced him in the priesthood. The
doctor wanted chiefly to learn the Sc
cret of the poison antedote, and he
was told year after year that the next
year he would be put in possession
of the secret. But he died without it.
