wooDMAN's sANITARIUM
Some Interesting Facts About Insti-
tuition in Colorado Springs.

Frank A. Wahlquist recently receiy-
ed letter from julius Valley who is
now an inmate at the Woodman' S
National Sanitarium for tuberculosis
patients in Colorado Springs. In this
letter Mr.. Valley states that he is
much pleased with his surroundings
and finds the sanitarium up-to-date
in every respect.
Although the institution has been
opened for patients only short time
the appointments are all that one
could wish. Water is brought from
the mountains nearby by a private
pipe line. The milk used by the pat
tents is from a herd of especially sell
ected cows kept in the vicinity. Ex-
cellent meals are served at a central
dining. hall Most of the patients
live in tents and are served three full
meals and three lunches each day.
One feature of this institution
which especially recommends itself to
the man with limited means is that
any member of the Woodmen may
obtain treatment free of charge. The
only expense to be incurred is carfare
to and from Colorado.

HER MOMENT OF COMPLETE JOY.
When grandmother Reads First Let
ter from Her Grandehid.

You may talk about great state pa
pers, of presidents messages, of royal
exchanges of salutations, and all that
sort of thing, but when you want to
strike a chord that beats in harmony
with the human heart, just see that
grandmother reading that first letter
from her grandchild. All time ald
space, and things created and uncre
ated. are concerted into the bliss Of
the moment, when the dear woman
drinks in the meaning of those awk-
ward, hesitating, incongruous lines,
which with all their crudities, still
seem stately and dignified under the
emotion of first great effort.
There is nothing like It, Shake
speare never matched 1t. Dante reads
like an almanac by the side of it, 1t
is a revelation that makes st. Johns
seem insipid and pale. The good WON
an reads 1t over and over. and thinks
away back when she was little girl,
and when the child's mother was lit
tie girl, and then of this little boy, just
starting to open path into the mys-
terry OF life; and she reads another
passage of the sweet, laundering let
ter which closes with the very for
mality of affection-"Your loving
friend"-and then her thoughts rush
out of the window into the gray skies,
but after while they come back,
bringing her the assurance from some
where, that of all the blessings of life,
one of the sweetest has come to her
that of getting the first epistle from
her first observation-disclosures (O)

Medicine In the Sea,

The sea, according to certain scient.
fists, can furnish not only nourishment,
but medicine. A distinguished French
practitioner prescribes the drinking of
sea water as cure for diabetes, the
water being aerated in order to re-
move its impurities and, to some ex'
tent, its nauseous flavor. 1t has also
been administered with success in
cases of bronchitis and pleurisy. Elk.
periments carried out on consumptive
patients show that simultaneous in
jections of sea water are beneficial, at
all events in the early stages of tuber'
culosis. Bread made with sea water
is said by those wfo have tried it to
be most appetizing and nourishing.

Guthrie was throwing his line, in the most approved manner. according to his companions and was leaning far over the water, when an unusually large fish caught his hook, and the un- expected jerk nearly threw him into the water n. A LeBaron has invented a new way of fishing and it is declared by the rest of the party he is to patent it. Here is his method: He takes a fine wire, makes loop, drops II into the water and when a nice big fish swims through, Mir. LeBaron jerks up the wire quickly and to use his own words, catches it around the waist

Curing Catarrh Accept Our Advice and Try This Remedy at Our Risk

Catarrh is disease of the mu- cous membrane. The mucous mem brane is. one may say. the interior lining of the body. Catarrh therefore may exist in any part of the system.
 When the catarrhal poison attacks the mucous membrane. inflammation and congestion are produced and nature fails to throw off the accumulated poi sons. The organ which has been af- flicted ceases to perform it's proper function as nature intended it should. The result is. complication upon com plication; which may lead to other even more serious afflictions
 We honestly believe Rexall Mucu- Tone will do wonders toward over coming catarrh. It is made from the prescription of an eminent physician who made a long study of catarrh, ana his great success with this remedy was an enYiable one.
 We want you if you are sufferer from catarrh in any form. to give Rexall Mucu-Tone a thorough trial. Use it with regularity and persistency for a reasonable time. then if you are not satisfied, come back and tell us. and without question or formality we will hand back to you every cent you paid us. This is certainly the fairest offer that anyone could make and should attest our sincerity of purpose. It comes in two sizes. prices 50 cents and s1.00.
