CLUB NOTES.

Minnesota.-Dr David II. Reeder,
Laporte, Ind.-Dear Doctor: We have
been subscribers to this paper over ten
years, but l do not think it has ever
been so instructive as it is now. The
first thing l look for when the paper
comes is your good and helpful leo
lures, for which l am very thankful
to you. Now l wish to present soma
questions to you. Our youngest child
nearly all the time, although at times
only in part. For the remainder lie is
we'll. We have a girl nine years old,
who three years ago fell and got a cut
in one leg. 1t is not an open sore, but
is something like a boil, at times ac-
cu1nulating matter Do you think it
is necessary to have an operation on
lit? l have not consulted any doctor
for it as yet. will be very thankful
to you for advice. Now / wish to tell
you what do when the children take
cold. First battle their feet in water
them something hot to drink, and put
snugly to bed. Next morning they will
be better. I have overcome the worst
fevers by mixing 20 drops of aconite
in one glass of water, one teaspOOnful
every other hour. For younger chill
dren, one drop in three teaspoonfu}s Of
water. Again thanking you, am,
Mrs. J. G.
am glad you as we'll as so many
others are SO thoroughly interested in
the important subject OF health. It is
said that there was at one time Pc
Rod of 600 years in the history Of
Rome in which there were no physi-
clans in the city. Good health by right
living and observing the laws of ma
ture was the condition of the Romans,
and I am convinced that such a con-
dition could only have been secured
by reason OF the fact that the doctors
who taught these people were of the
right sort. Their teachings were so
true, however, that they destroyed
their own profession.
The trouble with your boys tongue
is caused by some error in his diet, and
indication of the condition of his
stomach. 1t will be necessary for you
to give me- a very careful description
of the child and tell me of what his
diet consists. If he is nursing, and
takes no other food, tell ME OF your
own diet; give a full description of
what he eats, how often and how much.
The little girl has probably bruised
the bone of the leg and the sore is deep
seated. You should apply the treat
n1ant given for home cure of diseases
Of the bone; even if the bone is not in
jured and is not diseased, this treat
ment, which is quite simple, should be
applied and the additional treatment
OF which I have written you should
also be carried out. ! thank you for
| the suggestion for the benefit Of others
| in regard to colds and fevers.
| Nebraska.-Dr. David H. Reeder, La
porte, 1nd.-Dear Doctor: Your kind
! inquiry has been received and I am
glad to inform you that the sores on
my eye and face-are WELL | effected a
cure by using the acid and oil as you
; directed. Please accept my gratitude
and kindest regards. Yours truly, R. r.
