Trust to Nature.

A great many Americans, both men
and women, are thin, pale and puny, with
poor circulation, because they have i'll
treated their stomachs by haSty eating
or too much eating, by consuming alco-
holic beverages, or by too close contine-
ment to home, Office or factory, and in
consequence the stomach must be treated
in a natural way before they can rectify
their earlier mistakes. The muscles in
many such people, in fact in every weary,
thin and thin blooded person, do their
work with great difficulty. AS result
fatigue comes early, is extreme and lasts
long. The demand for nutritive aid is
ahead of the supply. To insure perfect
health every tissue. bone. nerve and
mUscle should take from the blood GER
tain materials and return to it certain
others. 1t Is ncyrs> AIRY to prepare the
stomach for the work OF taking up from
the food what Is necessary to make good,
rich, red blood. We must co to Nature
for the remedy. There were certain
roots known to the Indians of this
country before the advent Of the whites
which later came to the knowledge OF
the settlers and which are now growing
rapidly in professional favor for the cure
of obstinate stomach and liver troubles.
These are found to be safe and yet GER
tain in their cleansing and invigoratng
effect upon the stomach, liver and blood.
These are: Golden Seal root. Queens
root, Stone root, Bloodroot, Mandrake
root. Then there is Black Cherry bark.
The medicinal principles residing III these
native roots when extracted with glyc-
crime as a solvent make the most reliable
and efficient stomach tonic and liver in

right proportions, as in DR.. Picrce's

Birds and Mosquitoes.

"Birds suffer more than man from the
mosquito naturalist said. Ere
quently the mosquito can't get at man.,
but birds he can always get at.
The male mosquito is harmless. He
never stings 1t is the female who does
all the mischief. Male and female alike
live through the winter.
After the mosquitoes egg is first
matched, the creature that issues forth
is called a wriggler. The wriggler lives
in water, in marshy pools, in the pud-
dies and the ooze of low-lying meadows.
He is like tiny snake, and he must
come to the surface to breathe.
Hence kerosene as a mosquito eXter-
minator. Ladle out kerosene on pool of
water and two tablespoonful will spread
until they cover eifectually fifteen square
feet. This oily covering is as alright as
skin. If there are any wrisglers in the
water under it they must die, they must
smother.
Some think mosquitoes feed on blood
alone. This is mistake. If a mosquito
can't get human blood or bird blood or
animal blood it stabs plants and feeds on
their juices.
How l wish we could convert the
mosquito to an exclusive use of this vcge.

Queer Filipino Mothers.

4 problem has arisen In the govern
ment Of the Philippine Islands which
is somewhat perplexing to the Ameri-
can officials In charge there. 1t relates
to the question Of convincing the Fill
pino or Malay mother that her children,
up to a certain age, belong to her home.
The Filipino child Of the wilds Is
scarcely able TO toddle before It Is given
to understand that It's home Is wher-
ever it may happen to be when night
fall comes. Its parents do not discard
1t, but they do make it plain that the
more it roams the better they will be
satisfied. Western civilization does not
regard this as right; 1t holds that up to
n certain age the child should be al
most wholly under the influence or tho
parents and the school, and should
come into its majority having some
knowledge Of the law and much OF
It's obligations TO others.
Filipino parents Of the jungles have
resented this view to a considerable
extent and hold that IL they kept their
children at home they would virtually
be making prisoners" Of them.
