HONEST PHYSICIAN.

1t is a mistake to that phv.
sicians are always skeptical as to the
curative properties of anything else
than drugs.
Indeed. the best doctors are those
who seek to heal with as little use of
drugs as possible, and by the use Of
correct food and drink. A physician
writes from Calf. to tell how he made
a we'll man of himself with natures

"Badger Pulling"

Considerable sums of money
changed hands at the badger
pulling Tuesday. The enter
tainment, which opens the fall
season for this class of sport,
was under the expert manage
ment of W. G. Kenyon. The
badger, a very fierce one, was
furnished by Bob Foster and he
was pitted against Harry Mill
er'S recently imported trained
dogs. Harry himself acted as
dog holder and Nj. Il. McKiilip
of Chicago, one of the Tall
madge railway party, pulled the
strings on tue badger. Only
one round was necessary TO
show that Miller's best pup was
not in it at all with that badger
and Miller in behalf of his re-
naming dogs declining further
com bat, the umpire, j. N. Don
ohoo, declared for the badger
and settlements were made aC-
cordingly. Although this in
itial badger entertainment was
rather short, it made up in
spice what it lost otherwise
and no one added more 10 the
general fun than did our young
Chicago friend, McKiIlip, who
pulled off cap, coat, collar and
tie to assist his protege, the
badger, should he deem it nee
eSSarv.

How do You Eat?

1t is safe to say that modern &C ok
ing develops business for both the Va.
loonkeeper and the undertaken When
boy eats mustard plasters in the
form OF food that is almost saturated
with fiery spices and irritating condi-
ments, thirst is created that nothing
but liquor or cigarets will satisfy. Man
is admOnished to "eat for strength,
and not for drunkenness" but in these
days anything that will tickle the four
square inches of taste surface is con-
sidered good food. although it may
contain scarcely any of the elements
that nature requires to replace broken
down tissues and to rebuild the worn
out brain. AS consequence, the vi
ta.ity and physical resistance soon
reach such low ebb that the individ-
ual falls an easy prey to any microbe
with which he may chance to come IN

Some "Donts- About Dress.

Don't dress the neck too warm when
going out in cold weather. A little
extra protec:iol is required for the
ears. but ii is not necessary to muffle
up the neck with thick furs to protect
the ears. Warm wrappings about the
neck cause the skin of the neck to
become mo!stened with perspiration.
When the wrappings are removed in
doors. the SLOW cooling which takes
place in consequence Of the evapora-
tion chills the part, and may produce
sore throat or nasal catarrh.
Don't wear rubbers indoors, nor out
OF doors, except when it is necessary
to prevent wetting the feet. Rubbers,
being impervious to air, prevent eyap-
grafton, so that the perspiration is re.
taihed, and the shoes and stockings
become damp from the perspiration
When the rubbers are removed, evap-
Grafton chills the feet, the same as If
they had been wet by the rain or by
walking on wet pavement. On re-
moving the rubbers after they have
teen worn for some time it is a good
precaution to remove the shoes and
stockings and put on dry ones If this
cannot be conveniently done care
should be taken to keep the feet warm
until the shoes are dry. The rubbers
should De dried before wearing again.

Ten. Life Cure. Consumption.

A doctor in Denver some time ago
made some experiments with consump-
tves. A tent colony was established
little way out of Denver. and the
patients progressed fairly well during
the first part of the winter. But by
and by there was a blizzard, and the
thermometer went down to 20 degrees
below zero, and then they began to
improve very fast. One woman did
not seem to improve at all until the
temperature reached this mark, and
then she improved rapidly. She had
had no appetite. but that 90 degrees
below zero weather gave her an appe-
tte. which was an indication that the
body was beginning to work naturally,
that the assimilative processes were
being resumed. and from that time she

Home Sanitariums.

In New York city consumptives are
building little huts on the tops OF the
houses, and are recovering. Outside
New York. Boston, and other large
cities, tent colonies. where consump-
tires can live out OF doors, are being
established. Every city ought to have
outside it camp where tubercular
patients can live and get well. The air
inside the city is not SO good as it
is outside; but on the tops OF the
houses, where the sun can shine. it
is great deal better than it is IN the
damp, dirty buildings in which most
city people live.
