the large blood vessels and causing an
excessive amount Of blood to go to the
brain. In such cases the patient must
sit upright; to lie down would increase
the pressure. Next the stomach must
be unloaded at once-warm water with
salt and mustard is most useful. The
hands and feet will usually be found
cold; battle them in hot water contain
ing mustard or ginger. Always loosen
the clothing about the neck and body
and allow abundance of fresh air.
When it is known that the attack is
not caused by overeating, the patient
may lie down with the head raised.
Enforce quietude and battle the ex-
tremities in hot water containing
stimulation. The bowls must be
moved-injections- of warm water con-
tanning salt and ginger being excellent.
Days may elapse before improvement
is noticed. But the means OF relief
must be persisted in, and the patient
sustained by frequent administrations
of broths Or other soft or liquid nour-
fishing foods If swallowing is too diff
icult 'sustenance by injections must
be resorted to. Feeble heart action
may be sustained by small doses of an
infusion of golden seal and scull-
cap or cactus.
The rules to be observed by persons
predisposed to apoplexy may be stat
ed as follows: Avoid excessive labor,
mental strain, anxiety and excitement.
Eat plain food, and that very moder-
ately: subsist mainly on fruits and
vegetables. Leave all alcoholic liquors
alone. Keep the bowels open, exercise
moderately and keep cheerful dis
position-do not quarrel. Never lie
down soon after eating, and don't re-
tire at night. with full stomach.
Avoid exercise before breakfast and
Immediately after meals. Avoid hard
water, which often makes brittle the
blood vessels in some persons; and do
not indulge in foods or habits liable
to produce fats. Use instead foods
that increase the vitality and health
of the nerves.

Nets for Bridge Workers.

The acrobatic feats performed by
structural ironworkers are brought
into closer relation with those Of the
circus by the adoption of the safety
net of the latter in the erection of
cantileyer bridges built out from each
shore and meeting in the center. In
this method of construction the net
does not interfere with the handling of
materials, and in one recent instance
was the means of saving no less than
six lives in the building Of one bridge.

dertones. BY the light that shone in
from the corridor Abner read from his
Bible. He sought out passages of Scrip
ture that might have borne upon his
Maynard brothers life.
But if any man walk in the night, he
stumbleth, because there is NO light in
him.
Hours went by as they sat together.
The jail was as quiet as a tomb Abner
knelt to pray, his brother beside him.
The preacher poured out his anguish in
an inspiring plea for the one who was
in the shadow Of the gallows. He
prayed with fervor that he had never
felt before. He was led on by the force
of ais own eloquence; his mind tran
scehded his surroundings; his voice
fell to whisper, and he pleaded on.
Suddenly Abner felt rough hand on
his shoulder. He opened his eyes, the
prayer still on his lips. Jim was bend
ing over him with a fiendish look on
his face.
Keep quiet or I'll strangle you!"
muttered the prisoner.
Abner Pitts sank back speeches., his
face deathly white.
Jim leaned close to him and said:
DO you want to save my soul? 2"
The preachers lips were quivering,
but he made no reply.
I'm going out of this jail tonight

What is believed to be the largest
white sapphire ever discovered was
lately taken to Berlin by NJ. Heppmer,
a German engineer, who has resided
for many years in Brazil, where he
possesses several mines. Before cut
ting the stone weighed 1880 karats,
but flaw caused the cleavage of q

!, -

If the many letters which l receive
daily are an indication of the interest
in the Home Health club lectures,
then it is plain that the desire for
knowledge upon subjects of health and
disease is great. find also that many
of my readers desire knowledge of a
deeper nature than is usually given in
newspaper articles. That is, they
want the most profound. technical in
formation regarding subjects which
are supposed to interest only learned
college professors and grave medical
societies. I am glad because of this
awakening of the people and trust the
interest will continue until a prac
tical working knowledge of home rem
edies and methods of overcoming sick
ness may be common property.

CLUB NOTES.

CLUB NO1G0s 3
Minnesota.-Dr. David H. Reeder,
| Laporte, Ind.-Dear Friend: We have
boy who has been sick for five or six
| months. The doctor here calls it
Brights disease. He swells up all
over his body, but worse in the lower
| part Ct the body. | would be very
thankful if you could give me some
good method of treatment and the
name of the sickness. He is II years
old. Very truly yours. ]. e.
Such a condition as Bright's dis
ease should have very prompt and
careful treatment. It arises from dis
eased kidneys, making itself manifest
by degrees, the swelling being one of
these. I would first advise a general
constitutional remedy for building up
the glands of his body, and particular
ly the kidneys, gradually restoring
a specific form of herb medication
which will act Immediately upon the
parts affected, and arrest the progress
of the disease. For the former / do
not know anything better than the
vegetable remedy which / have often
referred to and given the formula in
these columns compound gentian
syrup. This is a glandular form of
treatment, and would permanently
build up his entire system. The specific
treatment should supply to the vast
ing tissues Of the kidneys, etc, the
lacking elements necessary to their
restora ton. This is the form of treat
ment discovered by the old German,
DIR. schuessler, hence the tissue ele-
ments are called after him. They are
usually in tablet form, and would be
very beneficial for your son.
However, for immediate treatment
of the condition, would advise you
to battle the boys body with very hot
vinegar every night just before retir-
ing. Have it very strong. This should
give temporary relief.
Wisconsin.-Dr. David III. Reeder,
Laporte, Ind.-Dear Doctor: / am a
reader of this paper and would like to
tell you Of my trouble, may be you
have remedy TO suggest.
l have pain in my left leg between
the hip and the knee. It Varies in de
gree, but seems to get worse all the
time. It varies in location, but moves
always between these two points.
have had it since last fall, but for the
first few months was only slightly no.
ticable. The pain seems to be a,
drawing together kind, and is always
worse in the morning at getting up, SO
bad that I can hardly move about. One
doctor pronounced it muscular rheu-
matism and prescribed for it, but this
and many other remedies were all of
no avail Please tell me what to do.
Yours very truly, S. w.
From the description which you have
given of your condition, am ,inclined
to think that you are troubled with
sciatica. Now these pains many come
from rectal trouble, and If you are
troubled with constipation or piles
or any kind of rectal trouble, then it
will be necessary for you to overcome
this condition before you will get'much
relief. If, however, it is caused by uric
acid, in other words, rheumatism
alone, then / would suggest that you
use the Home Health club method of
for that condition.

An Attack of Group warded or

"Our little girl, two and one-half
years old, woke up coughing with the
Group one evening recently. We hap
pened to have some of Chamberlain
Cough Remedy on hand md gave her
two doses of it. She went back to

great medicine" says A. J. Luginbill,

for them by the board of education in
the school at Eighth street and Grand
avenue.
Here, under the tutelage of Miss
Mary Bennett, instructor of the city's
deaf and dumb since the day the de-
partment was started seven years ago,
these children worm out the under
standing of language which they may
never interpret by the ear but only
through the movements of the lips of
the speaker.
The instruction ranges from that of
the kindergarten to that of the seventh
grade. There are so many weeks be-
fore the instructor can see any adj
vancement by her teaching that unless
the labor of love went hand in hand
with the work the seeming hopeless
ness of it at the start would deter the
strongest hearted.
Other instructors see their pupils
pass from under them to those in
charge of higher work and the pupil
completes his course with many to take
the credit for his proficiency. Miss
Bennett has taken children who have
begun with kindergarten work labor
ing under difficulties that other chill
dren do not have to contend with and
retains them under her teaching until
they completed the graded school work.
The success of the child is her own.
Obey Their Teacher
The sixteen children understand her
perfectly; they obey her implicitly,
have faith in her and through her will
find their way into the world as talk
ing men and women.
The classes are necessarily small
and the work is entirely individual At
the commencement of the child's work
his attempts at speech are merely imi-
tative, but soon he is impressed with
the fact that imitation will not ad-
vance him and that he must think for
himself. His teacher insists that once
ne has taken up the pronunciation of
a word he must be able to speak 1t cor
rectly. Sounds are worked out.
There is strong sympathy existing
between the members of the class and
understanding between themselves
comes readily.
"I suppose you have perfection in de-
portment?" said visitor the other day.
"By no means" replied Miss Bennett.
'I am afraid the school more often is
carried on like that of the Chinese. for
every one is talking. Each one may
talk as much as he wishes. but this l
insist upon, and that is that all talk
ing must be aloud. In spite Of this,
however, there are some expert whis-
perers."
