How Nature Provides.
OUR BEAUTY, HEALTH AND
HAPPINESS.

Is it not possible II not probable that
elements necessary for the body-heath
are contained in the native medicinal
roots found in the earth, digested in the
plant laboratory of nature and made
ready for man or animal2
The medicinal virtues Of many Amer
lean plants and roots were known TO the
early Indians. Thus a root known to
modern physicians as Caulophyllum or
Blue CohOsh was known to the Indians
as rSquaw loot" Another, known TO the
Indians as URattleweed root" Is used in
modern medicine as vCimlcifuga."
Prof. Kings American Dispensatory,
an authority in these matters, SAYS: NOur
Indians set high value on Rattleweed
root BLACK Cohosh) in diseases OF women.
1t Is surpassed by no other drug In con-
gestive conditions of the parts where
there are dragging pains and tenderness.
After many years of study and expert .
ment DR.. Pierce, the medical director OF
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Insti :
tute, at Buffalo, N. Y, put up asprescrip-
ton Of his own, containing the nom
alcoholic, klyceric extracts Of the two
above mentioned Ingredients, together
With Golden Seal root, LedY's Slipper

THE TELEPHONE.

It's Marvellous Progress In Less Than
a Generation.
or the S,500,OO0 telephones in use
throughout the world at present the
United States and Canada have more
than 100000 with other countries
practically nowhere. To include Cana
Ga is indeed only complimentary, since
the United States alone has about
0,IoOOOO instruments out of the 6,0OO,.
OOO In use. More than 10000 towns,
cities and villages in this country now
nave telephone connections.
Many are the strange ways in which
TINS instrument, only one generation
old, is utilized in various parts of the
world. In. San Francisco there is
Chinese exchange, while in many of
the manufacturing towns of New Eng
land operators are often compelled be-
cause of the mixed population which
depends upon the telephone to speak
two or three languages in addition to
English. Away over in the capital Of
Persia another novel use Of the tele-
phone is found. There the shah, whom
itiis practically impossible to see, has
allowed his subjects the right to petit
ton by telephone. A booth has been
set up In the central square of the city,
and there citizens can get their SOW
ereign's ear and demand their rights
In way as curious as it is new.
Each day a long line Of petitioners as
sembles at the booth at daybreak and
remains until shutdown, when 1t is
closed.
Indeed, the telephone is proving a
powerful democratic influence in bring
ing together rulers and their subjects.
King Edward, the car and the Ger
man emperor are reached by this means
| much more often than was formerly
| possible. They are indeed fast becom"
ing more accessible than many Of New
York's money kings whose telephone
numbers appear In no directory, the OPP
orators being forbidden to reveal them
under any circumstances. Were this
not the case, it is said, the millionalres
would be flooded with numberless calls
Of every description. BY revealing their
numbers to only a few business and
personal associates this bother Is elm
iinated. Another novel use Of the In
| strument in New York is the taking of
testimony under oath by means of it.
| The annual number Of telephone mes
sages in the United States is almost
Incredible, totaling probably 100000
| 900. Were one man to attempt to
speak all these conversations it would
have been necessary for him to have
started about 1900 years before Christ
since the task, allowing three minutes
for each call. would occupy 5000 years
Expressed differently. this number OF
calls would give every man, woman and
child and even the babies in arms In this
country about 100 a year, remark
able indication Of the point Of develop
ment which the telephone has reached
in its brief life of thirty years as an
organized business.
