CanSanite BuriaIs.

Some important discoveries have
lately been made with regard to the
burial customs of the Canaanites. The
bodies were usually deposited in
caves. as Abraham deposited the body
Of Sarah. The caves were either
natural hollows in the rock, such as
abound in Palestine, or artificially
formed excavations, usually roughly
circular. On the floor of these caves
the body was laid, in contracted DO.

law requires that the amount of chic

BATTLED FOR YEARS
With Much Dreaded Dis
ease, Consumption,
ONLY TO DIE OF A SORE TOE
Some of the Plans He Adopt
ed TO Keep Health and
PrOlOng Life.

Hagerstown, Ind, Jan. 17.-PhiliI
Pipher, aged 70, farmer, died Of
blood poisoning caused by stubbinl
his toe. The foot was amputated 6
week ago, and death followed last
night.
Fifty years ago Philip Pipher was a
hopeless consumptive. Himself, his
physician and his friends, did not
believe that he could live more than a
few weeks. Everything that medi-
cine could do had been done, and nc
benefit was to be seen. lie accidental
~ encountered a stranger who sug-
gested to him a course of treatment
which he Immediately adopted. This
treatment was a rigorous abstention
from every article of food usually
regarded as necessary by the aver
age man. According to the code he
was not to eat meat of any kind
nor fish nor fowl nor their products
This placed milk and eggs on the ban,
He could not partake of white flour in
any form, nor any kind Of pastry. COT
fee, tea or chocolate, wines, beer and
all kinds of liquor, tobacco, every sort
of medicine was interdicted.
He was free to partake of such veg
etables as he desired, and was ad-
vised to use vegetable oils. Nuts OF
all kinds were eaten in every form of
preparation, and took the place OF
meats on his bill of fare. Mr.. Pipher
rigidly practiced dieting and exercise
in the fresh air. He had no preceptor
in his mode of treatment, as his ad-
wiser had gone to other scenes, and
he was often Obliged to adopt meas
ures of his own for treating sudden
indispositions which frequently at
tackled him. He dared not taste any
medicine, and for this reason his case
did not come under the ordinary code
He hit upon the plan of refrainine
from all forms of food until the troub
lie passed.
To fast a week was so common an
occurrence with Mr.. Pipher as to be
unworthy OF note He has frequently
gone three weeks without a morsel OF
food. During these fasting periods he
drank distilled water freely and pursu
ed his usual vocation of farming, II
able to do so. He seldom went to
bed from, sickness and rarely had to
cease his ordinary work.
His extraordinary case attracted the
notice Of scientists in various parts
of the country, and he was frequently
visited by persons who were suffering
from maladies of various sorts. He
was a frequent contributor to journals
devoted tc the subject OF health, and
his articles attracted wide notice.

Third That we have full faith In

again repeat that we regret that con-

and confidently hope and expect that
no more will occur; and recall with
pride that ali is serene in Trigg coun-

but thinking makes it So" is as true

will be no need for suicide bureaus
nor for human gloom and despair. We
shall think ourselvs contented and
happy and that will make us so.

IS CONSUMPTION INHERITED
Opinion of a Prominent Bacter-
iOlOgist Given at Recent Lee
ture at Harvard College.

Prof. II. c. Ernst in a recent Ice
ture before Harvard Medical school
discussed this theory at length. He
claims that consumption Is not an
inherited disease, and that the chill
dren OF parents who have had tuber-
culosis are as likely to grow up
strong and healthy as children of par
ents who have not. DR.. Ernst further
claims that the cardinal means for
curing this dread disease are plenty
OF fresh air, sufficient nutritious food
rest and exercise.
For centuries physicians every
whtre have recognized the value OF
cod liver oil in the treatment of con-
sumption and all wasting diseases
but unfortunately few could take IL
with benefit ON account of the indi-
gestible oil.
Vinol has solved this problem. II
is the modern cod liver preparation

CULTURE OF TOBACCO
Is a Failure Anywhere Except
On Native SOil--.SOme
Experiments.

New York, Jan. 17.--Long-continued
experiments, with view of raising
high-gr3de tobacco outside the Sec
ton in which the leaf has long been
grown, have been a complete failure,
according to Vice President Harris of
the American Tobacco Company. Mr..
Harris made this statement on the
witness stand at to-day's session of
the hearing in the Governments i'll
vestigation into the American Tobac-
CO Company. Attempts have been
made to grow the tobacco from Ameri
can seed in Australia, China, India
and other countries.
In Australia not more than 10 per
cent. of the tobacco grown could be
used, and in the other countries il
was even less of success. In India
and China the leaf became moldy
before It could be manufactured. For
that reason, he said, it had been
found impossible to compete with the
cheap native tobacco. AS result, In
India ard China, the business of the
British-American Tobacco Company,
which controls the foreign trade, is
confined largely to high-grade goods.
The native tobacco grown in China,
Mr.. Harris said, amounts TO between
500, 900, 900 and SOO,OOO,OOO pounds an
nually, but it is much inferior TO
Americana grown tobacco.
