The Health in Summer.

The best way to keep in good health
in the summer is to pay just 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 preventative, and prescribing
natural treatments. We are thus get
ting closer to nature, and nature, as a
restorer OF 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 holy
and tempers the blood. and, when fol-
lowed by 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 800 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
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 invigorating. 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 those treatments with !
marked success. and shall be pleased |
to tell you how and why It is such in
few moments, as well as refer you
to Paducah people who will personally |
attest to the merits OF them.

Under the caption Bryan and
Hearst the Nashville Banner says:
at is generally agreed that the
tendency of the conservative element
Of the Democracy towards Mr.. Bryan
comes of a negative as wen as a pos
tive cause. II is what he is not as
well as what he is that attracts them.
He is not for instance. SO radical as
VIM. Randolph Hearst and he ap-
pears to be the best man the party
affords for commencing the Hearst in
fiuence 1t is hardly doubtful prop
osition that in a contest between Bry-
an and Hearst for the Presidential
nomination Mr.. Bryan would win, but
an important question is. should Mr..
Bryan be nominated by the Democrats,
can he get Hearst's support? And
should Mr.. Bryan be nominated by
the Democrats, would that deter Mr.,
Hearst from becoming a candidate?
He ran against Mcclellan. the Demo-
tfd'ft hoiiihtt loi ihn'oi VI -Nt"
York. and he may become an indie
pendent candidate for president on
some sort of socialistic platform of his
own devising Hearst, as an indie
pendent candidate. would have a
strong following, and it would be
mostly drawn from the Democratic
party. The question then arises
whether Mr.. Bryan can really. unity
the Democracy or at least whether
he can command the support Of all
who were formerly embraced in the
two Democratic organizations of 1896.
He could under present conditions
probably come nearer doing it than
any other man, but with Hearst lead
ing a radical movement many of his
old supporters would desert him.
