Are Drugs Necessary?
Do Drugs Cure Disease?
Can Nature be Assisted?

If people were born right and after
wards lived right, there would be no
use for medicine. Every doctor knows
this. So do other well-informed people.
One thing more. When person lives
wrongly, or acquires bodily weakness by
heredity, medicine can do only very
little. Medicine cannot cure him. Only
charlatans claim that medicines will
cure disease. Medicines may palliate
symptoms. Medicines may urge the
powers of Nature to resist disease. Med
lcines sometimes arouse the efforts of the
human body to right itself against de-
engagements. This is the most that med.
icine can do.
A man accidentally puts his finger in
the fire. Instinctively he vets bis
finger in his mouth, then blows on il
for the cooling effect. This is no cure
He knows it very we'll. But it makes il
feel better for the time being.
People eat unwisely. This produces
dyspepsia or indigestion. The only
rational cure is to eat correctly. Yet il
palliative is at hand the pains of indi.
gestion can be mitigated, the throes oil
dyspepsia assuaged. The medicine can
not be said to have cured. 1t simply
palliates disagreeable symptoms. The
cure must come through right living.
Take Peruna, for instance. No one
claims Peruna is cure for dyspepsia
But Peruna will stimulate the stomach
to perform its function properly. Peru.
ma will increase the flow of digestive
fluids, without which digestion cannot
be carried on at all. 1t will increase the
relish of food, the appetite.
1t is admitted that all this can be
accomplished by right living, but there
or do not know how to eat correctly thai
tremendous amount of good can be
done by the wise use OF Peruna.
A stomach that has been frequently
abused performs he function OF diges
ton very lazily. UGH stomach allows
the food to remain undigested for some
time after it is swallowed. This leads
to fermentation of the food. Sour stom
ach is the result. This goes on week
after week, until the blood is poisoned
with the products of fermentation. This
condition is very apt to produce rheum'
atism.
1t is not claimed that Peruna will cure
rheumatism. Nothing will cure rheum-
atism but correct living. But it is
claimed that Peruna will assist badly
abused stomach to perform its work.

INSURANCE IN GERMANY.

accident. When a boy begins his
apprenticeship at 16 he begins his
insurance. Even children under age
who work for wages out of school
hours are required to insure for in
Validism and old age. The men in
labor colonies must be insured, and
prisoners hired out by the state. In
every factory one meets it; in every
tenement. 1t has been estimated

Brother of Assassin CzolgOsz Dis
liked Idea of Being Swallowed.
Lock me up now; I don't want
to be Swallowed all day" said a clean
looking, well dressed laboring man
who walked into Los Angeles police
headquarters the morning President
Taft was in that city.
What do you want 10 be locked
up for?" asked the captain in charge.
The man hesitated, glanced about
him to see that he was not over
heard, and said quietly:
my name is CzoIgosz."
1t was the police captains turn
to hesitate, but he caught himself
quickly.
"Well, go over there and sit
down." he said.
so it happened that the brother
of the man who died for having
robbed the nation of the life of one
of its presidents voluntarily sat in
a police station while President Tart
was driven through the streets. Be
lieving that he would be watched
that day because of the act OF his
brother at Buffalo he preferred to
go upon his own motion to the po-
lice station that there might not even
be a suspicion attached to aim.

YOUNG MANS ARM CRUSHED IN COTTON GIN
serious Accident Befell Lloyd Odom
Oil Mill in Albany. Arm Torn Into shreds and Amputated

Lloyd Odum, the eighteen-year-old
son OF Mrs. R. D. Goss of Dawson,
was the victim of a serious accident
in Albany Tuesday at the Planters

The result of the accident was that
he lost an arm.
Young Odum was working with

the Other Ride in His Auto.
The Albany Herald tells of an ex-
citing scrap in that city between J..
B. Tyler and Dan Minis, both we'll
known citizens of Lee county.
The exact cause of the difficulty
was not learned, but from what a
Herald reporter, who happened by at
the time, overheard of the heated
conversation between the two par
ties Immediately preceding the fight
it seems that the misunderstanding
arose in connection with Mr.. Tylerfs
having declined to take Mr.. Minis in
the formers automobile.
To the reporter, who was a wit
ness of the fight, it seemed that Mr.
Minis was under the influence of
liquor, while Mr.. Tyler, though Sc
her, was very angry.
Several men rushed up and with
difficulty succeeded in pulling the
men apart.
Mr.. Minis sustained a cut on the
nose from which blood flowed freely,
while Mr.. Tyler's necktie was pulled
off and his shirt and collar were bad
ly torn. No weapons other than
fists and feet were used in the fight
the feet coming into play when out
siders rushed in and held the arms
of the belligerenJs.

chinery was running slowly, while
the workmen were adjusting the new
gins. In some unaccountable man
ner young Odum's left hand was
caught between the cylinders of the
gin, and the arm was pulled into the
machine nearly to the elbow.
The young mans arm was torn to
shreds, and it was necessary to am
putate the member about four inches
below the elbow.
