The Health in Summer.

The best way to keep in good health
in the summer is to pay Just a little
attention to the body physically. and,
by proper attention to diet and ma
lures warnings, avoid sickness.
More and more each year the pro-
fession is getting away from the theory
OF always dosing for disease, as a cure
and a preventative, and prescribing
natural treatments. We are thus get
ting closer to nature, aud nature, as a
restorer CO the spent vigor and health
is coming into Its right and just recog-
milton.
The bath as one OF the aids to
nature is now given its due credit and
attention. In the warm summer sea-
son the cold bath in the morning i'm
parts vigor and starts the day off with
tonic effect. IT stimulates the boly
and tempers the blood, and. when fol-
lowed by 1.-THE warm bath at evening,
keeps the system in excellent condition
for the trials of warm weather.
One OF. if not the greatest baths
science has developed is the dry hot
air treatment. In this the tempera-
ture can be run up to 500 degrees,
but, by a process which gives a free
circulation of air through the ma
chine. the heat Is never oppressive
This treatment opens thoroughly the
pores of the most obstinate skin ami
puts 1t in good condition. and by the
perspiration assists nature In elimi-
mating the impurities from the sys-
tom.
The after effects % the treatment
Is inyigorating. Instead Of being the
least Oppressive, they are tonic. and
for the tired-dowI WORKOUT system,
It is a wonderful rejuvenator. Espe-
cially is this so, when the treatment
is followed by the osteopathic treat-
ment.
am giving these treatments With
marked success, and shall be pleased
to tell you how and why 1t is such in
few moments. as well as refer you

attest to the meI Is of them.

THE GOLD SEEKERS.

at was midday on the tableland
of Utah, and the suns rays came down
with a fierce heat" writes Day Allen
Wiley. in Technical World Magazine
for July. 1.-The man had crawled I'M
der ledge of rock which Afforded a
little shade. Sitting on the ground
he began knocking against the edge
of the rock-cleft with his pick, with
out thought Of what he was doing. A
piece of the rock became dislodged
and fell at his feet He gave it a cas-
ual glance. then one OF more interest
Finally he picked up the chunk, hur-
riedly pulled a magnlfying glass from
his pocket. and studied every corner
of~the rough surface.
"What he found caused the man to
spring up and WELD his prospecior's
pick with both hands until dozen
fragments lay at his feet Carefully
gathering Up every particle, he paced
them in a bag, and again started on
his way thoughtless of the deadly
heat of his lips cracked for want OF
water. He was half insane before the
desert journey was over; but he
managed to reach the nearest settle
ment. staggered into the assay Office
and dropped to the floor unconscious
The men in The room lifted him up
revived him with a liberal dose Of
whisky and water. and opened his bag.
The experts in mineralogy were
amazed Wei they might be. for the
unerring crucible test showed that
The chunks of rock contained so much
pure silver that ton would yield no
ess than twelve pounds.
"Old miners in Utah still tell this
story about the discovery of the Par
ley's Park lode. Farley lived to go
back and get some Of the fabulous
wealth which had been taken from
that desert plateau; but only a little
bit. for it is an actual fact. as the
records show, that over three million
pounds 500 tons-in weight of
pure silver has thus far been taken
from this wonderful deposit"

His tale is one OF brutal, cowardly
assassination, devoid of a single feat

Sound Advice Given to the Negro

After his address at Portsmouth
Va, President Roosevelt delivered
another in the afternoon to the stu

institution for the education of ne

with the question of education in the
abstract, while particularly empha-
sizing lis value in ameliorating the
condition of the colorcd man and
woman. lie first pointed out the
value of a school In making them
better men and women as pre-emi-
uently in the interest of the white
man. "Th.re is aothing.' he said.
that can be done better Tor the
white man who is to live side by side
" tn the colored man than to train
the colored man up to be good
citizen. The good man, who is a
white man, by his presence is a
benefit to every colored man in the
community. and the safety of the
white man is in having the colorcd
man grow to be a good and decent
man"
These are undoubtedly sound fun.
damental propositions, and from
them the president proceeded to
show that. from the standpoint of
he white man. the safest and best
thing that can happen is to have
the colorcd people around him be
come thrifty, industrious home
makers and home-kecpers. and that !;
was the aim OF the Hamp ON lnst.-
tute in its training to bring about
such results In the same way he
showed that from the standpoint oi
