Poet Who Succeeds

The italian government has voted an
annual pension of about 81, 400 to the vet
eran poet, Carducci, on his retirement,

literature in the University OF Bologna.
Carducci, who has long been recognized
as Italy's greatest living poet. was tn

against romanticism, return to the

model was Horace, but a Horace en-

Appetlte Juice.

The taking of food into the mouth
is a signal to all the digestive organs
to prepare for work. Even the sight
and odor OF food may cause an out.
flow Of saliva. and at the same time
the gastric Juice pours into the stom.
ach.
Pawlow, of ST. Petersburg. In ex.
periments upon a dog, observed that
when food was introduced into tho
animals stomach through an opening
made for the purpose II was not acted
upon: the digestive Juice was not
poured out, and the stomach appar.
emily remained inert for nearly half
an hour. On the other hand, when the
animal was allowed to see and smell
the food, the saliva and the gastric
Juice poured forth abundantly, even
though the animal did not actually
taste a mOrsel. II Is important that
the food should be retained in the
mouth for a sufficient length of time
to make the proper impression upon
the nerves Of taste, so that the entire
digestive apparatus shall be thorough.
~ prepared to carry the food sub.
stances through the successive steps
Of the digestive process.
rhe thorough chewing of the food
produces an abundance OF what Paw.
low calls Appetite Juice which is
the best and most important juice
formed by the stomach. Hence food
must be well relished, and eaten with
careful attention to very thorough
mastication.

Real Healing Agents.

There are many fictitious remedies.
Some make man feel better when
he Is really getting worse. The most
valuable measures which can be EN-.
ployed in dealing with the sick may
be said TO be baths, exercise and diet.
The chronic invalid can be made well
only by being reconstructed, The
sick man must be transformed into
healthy man by process OF gradual
change. He has been months or years
In tearing down his constitution and
substituting an inferior grade Of ma
terlal. Now this process must be re.
vcrsed. and little by little. the old It's.
sues must he torn down and new It's.
sues built In their place
Warm baths help throw of stored
up poisons. and cold baths hasten the
destruction Of waste tissues, increase
the activity Of the heart and OF all the
organs. encourage the formation OF
the digestive fluids. and increase the
appetite for food
BY means Of exercise the movement
of the blood is quickened and the old
diseased tissues are broken down and
carried out of the body. Exercise al.
ways diminIshes weight BY exercise
a normal appetite is earned and deep
breathing encouraged.
Pure simple food is the proper ma,
teral with which 10 construct a new
and healthy body, Man is built OF
what he eats. The house is no better
than the material. Thus baths, exer'
else, and a natural dietary constitute
curative trio each helping the other.

The acold Air cure.v

Cold air purldes the blood. ener.
gizes the heart, puts new vim into
the muscles. helps the stomach, wakes
up the liver, lifts the whole being to
higher plane Of life.
The most successful consumption
resort In the world Is Dayos, winter
resort In the Swiss Alps, near the En-.
gadine. where the snow Is six feet
deep and the temperature close TO
zero all winter. Every winter hun.
dreds of tubercular patients from all
parts of the world resort to Dayos to
take the cold cir cure"
Cold air cures there Is no doubt
about ~, when accompanied by wise
and skillful management. and careful
regulation OF diet. In the summer
season this great healing force is
available only In small measure by
means Of cold baths. ice rubs. and
fans; but In the winter season, the
keen frosty air is everywhere. ready
TO be put TO work as the great uDlitt.
ing power II is when rightly applied.
The winter season alone provides
continuous tonic conditions. The
dense air, containing from one.eighth
to one-fourth more oxygen than mid.
summer, stimulates all the vital pro.
cesses to higher degree of activity.
Here is a healing force which is in
operation day and night. and steadily
lifts the patient up to a higher level
until the ebbing tide OF life turns
backward, and renovatlng forces OF
the body resume their activities with
all the old.time vigor.

Alcohol Va. strennth.

The laborer. the traveller and the
soldier use alcohol under the deluslon
that II produces strength. When ia.
tlgued, the laborer takes a glass OF
grog, and feels better He imagines
himself stronger. His increased
strength, however, is wholly a matter
of imagination.
The use Of alcohol makes a man
feel stronger-makes him believe that
he can do more work, endure more
fatigue and hardship. and withstand
greater degree Of cold than he could
without It.; but when an actual trial
Is made, It soon becomes apparent
that the ability is lacking Numerous
experiments have shown that alcohol
decreases muscular strength Says
DR.. Brunton, The smallest quantity
takes somewhat from the strength OF
the muscles Says DR.. Edmunds. OF
London. "A stimulant is that which
gets strength out of man"
Some years ago a series Of expert.
ments were made for the purpose Of
determining the influence OF alcohol
upon the muscular strength. The
combined strength of all the different
groups Of muscles in the body was
found in the case of a healthy young
man. to be 1881 pounds. The young
man was then given two ounces OF
brandy, and the test was repeated,
He felt confident that his strength
was increased. In fact, 1t was found
to be only 1886 pounds. loss Of more
than onc.third. A notable diminutlon
In strength was still present ten hours
sitter the administration OF the
brandy.

Vital Activity in Cold Weather.


The vital fires burn brighter in cold
weather. The whole tide OF life
moves with greater activity. The pro.
cess OF digestion is quickened because
the process of oxidation is increased
The liver requires oxygen for max.
ing bile and performing all its varied
functions, and the oxygen We breathe
In cold air. improves the function Of
the liver so It can do one-seventh
more work than before.
The muscles, also. depend for their
activity upon oxygen. In an excess
OF carbonlc acid gas the muscles are
asphyXiated, and so one. feels de-
pressed In warm weather.
A person does not get out OF breath
so easily In cold air as In warm. The
woodchopper can swing his axe with
more energy on a cold day. Cold air
aids In the elimination of the poison.
GUS matters which are all the time
forming within the body.
When oxygen is not plentiful
enough to make the vital fires burn
sufficiently to consume the fuel and
waste of the body, then much Of the
waste material is left behind III the
form Of imperfectly burned sub.
stances. which may be called elnders
Of the body.

BURNING Up the Body cInders.
