Lungs Declared Sound Life Insurance Granted.

If you knew a remedy that really had cured Tuberculosis. that had saved from death quite a number of people. would you try to get COnsumptives interested in it and induce them to take it; or, would you say nothing about it, for fear of giving offence?
 We know the medicine. We know the people cured-zoTlc of them. We have the stories of cure of many-and affida- wits from some. We advertise Eckman $ Alterative to tell those who have lung disease what has been done by its use. Investigate the following:

 Gentlemen; "On the evening of May 13. 1907. had five hcmorrhases from the right lung. Ny hcmorrhaSes kept up for one weck-T had twenty-eight in all. Sep tic pneumonia developed. My doctor told me l had better go to another climate, a my left lung had also become affected.
 About that time I met Howard Klotz, 1919 Susquehanna Ave, this city. Who had hcDorrhaSes several years ago and who was cured by Eckman's Alterative.
 I started to take Eckman's about the latter part of August, 1907. My appetite improved at once and in about two weeks l started to gain weight. l improved veloped in my right leg aId ] commenced to get a lump on my right hip. My doc tor told me I was getting tubercular sbEcess and that it was affecting the sciatic nerve. The lameness and lump gradually disappeared. Have not had any trouble of that nature since.
 Since my recovery about year ago. I was accepted for life insurance, after two examinations by company that had previously rejected me.
 I have advised several people to take Eckman's and those who took it faith fully had the same results as myself.

THE soUTH's PROSPERITY

More and more the South is forg- ing to the front as wealth produ,- ing region. In the ten years ending with 1910, West Virginia's growth in population was 27 per cent, that of Texas also was 27 per cent while OklahOma's increase was I09 rer cent. or greater than that of any other state except Washington in the far Northwest. which grew 120 Der cent. Birmingham, Ala. and the leading cities of Texas-FOustOn Fo-t Worth, Dallas, San Antonio. Waco and Austin-increased at d very high rate. In some of the important towns of Oklahoma the growth was still faster.

lose control of their children. but it is rarely the mother who stays young with her children who is called upon to regret in this wise
 There is scarce'y a lrettler sight in the world that-that of mother and daughter living in perfect companion ship with each other The daughter gets d very great deal of inspiration from such close living and the mother I certainly derives d great deal of com fort from it.
 It may be a sacrifice in the begin ming for d mother to give up her own predilections to enter into the amuse- ments and the ambitions of her daugh- ter, but there comes a time when she finds that it has been worth all it has cost and that it has been eminent ly worth while. The daughter who grows up with the idea that mother is her best friend. who finds it as nat ural as anything in the world to in clude her mother in her calculations gets a harmony that is restful and in vigorating.
 When the time comes that only one travels the road of life where but d little while before there were two. there is the sweet consolation that one has lived the true measure of life. If it is the mother who is called first she has given the daughter an exper- fence that shall be her shield through all the worries and temptations of the after years
 But even before that time comes, often when she reaches d point in lifes road where there is only an in terrogation point instea of direction, she will stop and ask herself what mother would advise under the cir cumstances. And by her knowledge of mothers thoughts on just these things she is able to make the right decision.
 It isn't the daughter who grows away from the mother as often as it is the mother who grows away from the daughter This is particularly likely to happen where the mother has interests outside the home. She leaves her growing daughter too much to the society of others. and often to foreign influences. Some day she ayvakens to find herself separated as far from her child as if each dwelt at the opposite poles.
 The companionable mother gets her daughters confidence and holds 1t through the critical years. She is able to discriminate between the young people with whom her child is thrown into association and she is able to surround her with just the right type of companions to keep her clean and wholesome. Surely the undertaking is well worth while.

Mothers Companionship

The mother who stays young with her children is doing the world an in finite amount of good. This retention of the youthful spirit is something other women might well envy because it brings d happiness nothing else can.
 The mother who does this can ap- preciate her children's outlook upon life and help them to form their car eers-just the aid most young people need but rarely get. The perfest sym pathy thus established will last through life and after the mother is gone will be the greatest influence in her child's life
