Put a few grains Of rice in

Glue pieces Of felt or pieces

tuberculosis, absolute rest Of
ten in bed, must be extended
over a period of months, before
the c9nsumptive should take any
eXe> else. He says, prolonged
rest in bed out Of doors yield
better results than any other
methed Of treating pulu nary
tuberculosis. Patients will
have a getter appetite and take
more food without discomfort
and gain weight and strength
faster than patients with active
disease who are allowed to eX-
erclse. Complications are much
less frequent. When used in
the incipient stage recovery is
more rapid and surer.
Mr.. Ross, who is himself a
cured consumptiye and a writer
Of considerable prominence,
holds that unless resting be-
comes a business to the tubercu-
loSis patient, he might as well
give up his fight for health.
"%The period of infection with
tuberculosis, he says, lis not a
vacation. 1t is a twenty-four-
lour-a-day job. True it is a
period Of idleneSs, but one Of IN
telligent, directed idleness. The
days work should consist Of
business on hand. The light
rest; rest should be the only
business on hand. The light ex-
ercise or hour of reading
should be considered as the re-
ward of a good days work, like
tie evening of slippered ease to
the tired business man at the
end of the day. This recreation
however, should be considered on
J, as an incidental result Of the
PATIENTS work, not the main
object"

SAMPLE CURED OLD

One of the most remarkable proofs
Of the unusual laxative merit con-
tanned in DR.. CaldwelTs Syrup Pepsin
is that it is effective not only in peo-
pie in the prime of life, but at the
extremes of ages. AS many letters
are received from mothers regarding
the cures of children, as from men and
women of sixty, seventy and eighty
years Of age. 1t must be truly a won
derful laxative.
In the cure of constipation and
bowel trouble in old people it has no
equal. 1t corrects the constipation,
dispels the headache, b~iliousness, gas,

CRENSHAW & YOUNG

1907. This very large increase
in the value of cottan exports in
the fiscal year 1911 over that Of
an earylier year is due chiefly
to the high prices, the quantity
.Cf cotton exported in 1911 being
materially less than in 1909 or
1907, while the value will ex-
coed by more than 100 million
dollars that of the years in which
tie quantity was greater than
in 1911. The average export
price of domestic cotton in May
1911 was Isl cents per pound,
and for the 9 months ending
with May, 14.5 cents per pound
against 14.5 cents per pound
against 14.2 cents in the cotton
year 1910; II cents in 1904; ia
cents in 1908; and less than 6
cents per pound in 1895, 1898
and 1899, these figures being in
all cases for the cotton year end
ing with August 31st.
Meat and dairy products show
a marked increase in value Of ex-
PORTS in the fiscal year 1911,
when compared with the i'm
roediately proceeding year, be-
ing for the IL months ending
with May 1852 million dol
lars; against 100 million in the
same months Of last year; and
for the single month of May.
1912 million dollars, against
million for the corresponding
month of last year. This in
crease is due in nearly all cases
to larger quantities, the prices
being in most cases lower than
last year. For example the
average export price of bacon in
the month Of May, 1871, is lbs
cents per pound, against 15.s
cents per pound in May of last
year; hams, lis cents pei
pound, against 14.6 cents in May
, year ago; lard, 80 cents pei
pound, against 1877 cents in the
corresponding month last year
butter, 20.7 cents per pound
against 25,5 cents in May a
year ago; and cheese, 11.5 cent;
per pound, against 1873 cents in
May last year.

fiscal year 1911 over that of the
corresponding period Of the pre-.
ceding fiscal year are fruits, q

Professor Lee, writing on the
subject "The Physiology of

experiments on dissected frogs
the way in which exercise tires
the muscles and, in fact, all the
organs Of the body. He says:
"There is no known antidote
to fatigue, unless it be rest, with,
with all that rest implies. Sleep

rest to be performed most quick

degree of fatigue, or even a con

ia provided with great recupera-
tive powers, and does not rapidly
succomb to even excessive de-
mands on its energy. But it
should be allowed the proper con
dition for r%ecuperation, and that
condition is adequate rest. There
is danger when the fatigue of
one days labor is not eliminated
before the next days work is
begun. The effects may then

be in a continued state Of de-
preston, and the end may be
disastrous"

ton Of the poisonous germs of
