FOR HER.

For her, what marvels he would do!
For her what dangerous paths pursue!
What va1orous ambitions STIR
For her!
No worldly station is too proud
The echoing plau1its of the crowd
Are worth the pain-though sharp the
spur x %"r'
~~ For her!
And yet, remote from fame's unrest,
Love smiles and seems to thrive the best.
And life is sweet, she will aver.
For her!
Though fortunes gifts be strangely few
Her tender woman's heart and true
Feels that he plods without demur
For her!

HELPING OTHERS.

In Club Notes recently asked that
anyone who knew of q good home
remedy for any OF the ills of life,
should tell me Of it so that Il might
tell all of the readers. Some who may
need just that remedy will read it and
be grateful to you for many years for
the kindly help which you have given.
Not long ago there was q meeting
here at the headquarters OF the club
of some of the more earnest and
thoughtful members, and some of the
noted men and women who have sub
scribed to the special report of the
meeting expressed the belief that the
Home Health club has been and is
now one of the most powerful factors
for good that has appeared for many
years. Time, labor and expense have
not been spared to make the club
work the most helpful and practical
possible, and while you and / may
never know who nor how many suf
fering ones we may help, yet we have
the consciousness of having given to
suffering ones the means which have
been tried and tested, of relieving
pain.
For seven years this work has
steadily grown until to-day many
thousands are constantly helping it
along by telling to others what it has
done for them. The Home Health
club seems to have the faculty of in
spring an enthusiasm for health and
right living which is resistless l do
not claim to have discovered all of
the secrets of perpetual youth, but
have been able to not only grow young
er, stronger and healthier myself, but
to help others. do the same thing.
Good health enables one to succeed be-
cause there will be enthusiasm to
back up the energy and fresh rich
blood to the brain which supplies the
ideas, master at the helm of strong
craft sailing steadily forward over the
sea of life, ready at all times to help
the struggling ones who have been
shipwrccked.
I have always said that enthusiasm
was the glow of the soul, the lever
which lifts men out of the rut Of
cynicism, pessimism, gossip and doubt
to a higher level than the common
man and give him power for achiev-
ing desired results, that is almost
God-like in it's potency. Given q
sound mind in a sound body any legit-
innate object within the range of hui
man abilities is possible, and the man
who is determined" to have a sound
mind in sound body can have it.
The Home Health club will help
any and all, and in many cases during
the past years has turned despair into
Joy and dependency into brightness
and happiness. Life in it's fullness,
with gladness and happy faces, hope
for future and helpfulness to others is
the portion of the Home Health club
members. The watchword of the club
has always been: pass 1t On" You
have been helped. Tell it to others,
get them to subscribe for. this paper
and they will then come into the circle
of Home Health club, influence and
may at any time receive help also.
Write to me of your ills and I will
try to help you. Write to me of what
has helped you and 1 will tell 1t to
many thousands.

CLUB. NOTES.

Hartville. David H. Reeder, La
porte, Ind.-Dear Doctor: I wish to
consult you regarding my little
boy, aged six. When lie was two
years old he was stricken with
paralysis. It came on all at once. He
seemed cross all day and at night
staggered when he walked. The next
morning he could not walk at all and
for over a year he did not walk, but
crawled around. AT first when he
sat in his chair he would twist his
head and neck as though his back hurt
him. After he had been this way
about year he began to walk again
little at time. He now gets around
quite we'll, but one leg is somewhat
shorter than the other which seems to
be all right. He cannot move the toes
OF the one foot but very little, and if
allowed to go barefoot he walks on
the outside of his foot.
One doctor told me that it was
caused by an adherent prepuce. An
other doctor said it was dfslocation
In his spine. Our family doctor
laughed at both these ideas and said
that no doctor could tell what caused
ats What is your opinion? Can it be
entirely cured? Our doctor says the
only thing to do is to let him exercise
and nature do the rest. Respectfully,
p. NJ. s-:.
l would refer you to the lecture
which was recently published on the
subject of "Infantile Paralysis" and
would advise you to read it carefully
and adopt the suggestions therein
given. If treated promptly by the
method described cure can nearly
always be effected. j: ..
The doctor who laughed at the sug-
gestfons made by the other doctors,
was himself the one who should be
laughed at, as either one or both of
the conditions could cause the dis
ease and careful examination ought
to disclose the cause. >s.s@ : \ :

waiting for customers, goes out to
seek them. He carries his shaving APP

an American milkman, rings a bell to
attract the attention of likely custom
ers. The man who wishes to be shaw

stool on the ground for the custom

WoMAN'S FANCY.

Have 'em, Sure.
The new woman" has been exploit.
ed and discussed, both pro and con,
SO extensively that the world is rath-
er familiar with her now. 1t has
found that because she is inclined a
little toward athletics she is none the
less woman; that because she has
developed somewhat the practical
side of her nature She Is none the
less charming as feminine enigma;
that because she is a little more indie
pendent than in the good old days OF
the ''clinging vine" she is even more
fascinating. People can become &C.
customed to anything, and the new
woman has probably come to stay.
The world is now admitting that the
active and enthusiastic young girl on
the links, climbing the hills or dash.
ing pell nell along country byways on
horseback is much more admirable
than the trembling, cringing young
parlor plant of the elder day.
But there is one feature to the new
woman idea that is so decidedly al
variance with the popular conception
of womanhood that the world has not
yet accustomed itself to the change.
There is very manly movement on
the part of portion of the fair sex
which is affiliated with the Woman's
Club Federation that is somewhat dis
concerning to most men and must be
positively frightful to most women.
There is disposition to question
wOman's right-her divine right-to
finery. Ii is now claimed that elegant
attire is expensive; that plain clothes
are just as warm and do just as well
Now, really, isn't that becoming
just little bit too practical? Who
ever heard of striking down any por-
ton of the woman kingdom because
it was too expensive? Portions have
been demolished because they were
deemed too cheap-but too expensive,
never!
We are constrained to seriously
question the propaganda against ele-
CANT attire for women. Old Mother
live and her Immediate daughters
taught the world to look upon the
woman as a peacock-radiant, proud.
and beautiful. And through all the
changing years from Egypt and Rome
down through the dark ages and on
until today the mind of woman has
turned toward clothes. And we are
glad of it. There is nothing in crea,
ton SO disgusting as a slovenly dress
ed woman; nothing so dainty and at.
tractive as one becomingly gowned.
And so we raise our masculine voice
in protest against this rather unusual
movement OF the Federation of Won.

A LOST INVENTION.
Fortune for Discoverer of a Metal
of Ancients.

of Ancients.
Fame and fortune await the lucky
individual who can reaiscover the
combination of metals from which the
Egyptians, the Aztecs and the Incas
of Peru made theirs tools and arms.
Though eacn of these nations reached
high state of civilization, none OF
them ever discovered iron, in spite of
the fact that the soil of all three
countries was largely impregnated
with it. Their substitute for it was
the temper of steel. Despite the
greatest efforts, the secret of this
composition has baffied scientists and
mas become lost art. The great
explorer Humboldt tried to discover
it from an analysis or chisel found
in an ancient Inca silver mine. but
all that he could find out was that
it appeared to be combination of a
small portion of tin with copper. This
combination will not give the hard
ness of steel, so it is evident that tin
and copper could not have been Its
only component parts. What ever
migisi4s have been the nature of the
races were able SO TO prepare pure
copper that it equalled in temper the
finest steel produced at the present
DAY by the most scientifically approx
ed process. With their bronze and
copper instruments they were able
to quarry and shape the hardest
known stones, such as granite and
porphyry, and even cut emeralds and
like substances.
"A rediscovery of this lost art
would revolutionize many trades in
which steel at present holds the mo-
nopoly. II copper could thus bestem-
pered now its advantage over steel
would be very great and it would no
doubt be preferred to the latter in
numerous industries. 1t is curious
fact that though this lost secret still
battles SCIENTISTS, it must have been
discovered independently by the three
races which made use of il so long
ago"
The above item from Sunday pa
per is an example of many such float
ing about which both reflect and i'm
press an exaggerated sense of the i'm
portance of so-called lost invention
Or art. The writer says: "A redis-
covery OF this lost art would revolu-
tionize many trades in which steel
at present holds the monopoly" Why
would there De any revolution? Is
any man signing for copper razor,
or does any boy want a brass jack
knife blade? There is no evidence to
prove that the tempered copper tools
OF the ancients were capable of hold
ing a keen edge like STEEL; on the
contrary, they were probably very
crude and unsatisfactory substitutes
for what We now have. The United
States government board appointed
twenty-five years ago to test iron.
