CURED BY A NATIVE HERB.

On BOARD a vessel DOundeTor India
recently a man was bitten by a pois-
onous reptile; both the ship doctor
and a famous surgeon failed to con-
troll the poison, fast spreading through
his system
In a day the vessel reached port.
An Indian medicine man was sent for,
who produced a native herb which
quickly allayed the poison and the
mans life was saved.
Roots and herbs are natures cure
for disease. That great remedy for
female Ills, Lydia E. PinkAam's Vege-
talie Compound, had it's origin in the
roots and herbs of the field, tons of
which are now consumed yearly in

Will the Plague Come

How much will it cost to build the
''plague" out of our %seacoast cities?
Can we do it for 800, oO0, 900? viii
even half a billion dollars be adequate
to accomplish the work? This is a
problem which we shall DOR be oblig-
ed to face, and we might as well be-
gin to think about 1t now.
The imminence of the danger now
threatening our shores is by no means
generally realized. 1t is the policy OF
the Federal health service to alarm
the public as little as possible. Never
theless, the disease that holds rank as
the most destructive enemy mankind
has ever known has arrived in New
Orleans, and there is only too good
reason to fear that the rats In other
American seaports are already in
fected with it.
Originally a disease of rats, it is
carried by them, on shipboard, from
port to port. Starting from some
where in Asia nobody knows how
many thousands Il years ago, 1t has
repeatedly devastated Europe.
In the fourteenth century, for in.
stance, it wiped out one-tifth Of the
entire population of that continent.
Having secured a foothold in San
Franciso five years ago, 1T was driven
out by the public health service after
a remarkable campaign which in
volved the rat PROBING of the entire
city. Since then it has been threaten
ing Us from other quarters, making
it's appearance recently in Cuba and
Porto Rico, and there would be nc
cause for surprise if an outbreak Of it
in New York, Baltimore, or Boston
we're announced in the news dispatch
es any day.

necessary to establish a quarantine.
Were 1t not for the flea, there would
be 40 plague. Yet the fact that this
insect is the agent Of transmission
has been known for scarce half .
dozen years. The business of remov-

out how many of the insects there are
per rat, per sex Of rat, per species Of
rat and so forth. There Is more than
one kind of rat flea. In fact. the
whole subject is much more complex
than n might imagine; and the
data secured in this way have q funda-
mental value in relation to the prac-
tical problem which the experts are

The question whether the fleAs

Human Skeleton Dug

Police and county officers believe that
the find brings TO light an unsolved

Of them shoveled up human skull. As
they continued to dig the entire -skele-

LINCOLN SEEN AS
TAI 7 DARK HORSE
Sherman 'Gumshoeing' in Chi
caeo, Ills Said, to Ask for
Lorimer'S Resignation.

CHICAGO, May 25.-Yice President
James s. Sherman arrived in Chicago
today upon a secret mission that may
prove of tremendous significance in the
contest for the Republican presidential
nomination The report has spread
persistently that he has come as an
emissary of Taft to offer Robert Todd
Lincoln the support of the presidents
faction at the national convention. The
rumor in effect has it that Taft vir-
tually has concluded his own nomina-
nation is next to impossible. and thai
he can best revenge himself upon Colo
mel Roosevelt by putting up as a third
candidate the son of the president
whose name and fame Theodore Roose-
Welt is constantly using in his own be-
half. The report adds, however. that
the Taft Sherman influence will not be
swerved to Lincoln until Taft nomi-
nation is manifestly impossible.
The vice president alighted from d
train at suburb station and was
whirled away in waiting AUTOMOBILE
in an obvious effort to elude reporters.
But from Washington the report Of
the Lincoln movement had preceded i
and coupled with it came a second ru-
NOR that the real purpose of his visit
was to ask Senator William Lorimer to
step down and out by. resignation and
not embarrass the administration fur
ther by permitting his fight to retain
his seat in the senate to come to a
vote. 1t was said The vice president
would tell Lorimer it would be better
for himself and all concerned If he
would resign while the Endorsement of
the senate investigating Committee
majority in his favor remained as the
latest official action
At the Lorimer home it was said the
vice president had not been there and
would not call Mr.. Sherman's secre-
tary said Sunny Jim is il Chicago or
purely private business.

Girl S Suicide
Brought COLLINS.

Up to taat time some years ago when
very good looking young woman hung
herself TO a tree that oyerhung its mir
roring lake Sprlngyale park was one
of the most loved recreation spots in
Georgia. Nesting In the heart of In
man Park, it smiled up at the lording
terraces at it's sides and flowers laughed
out from the grass that mantled its
bosom. Down in the vale a clear, cool
lakeiet rippled in the sunbeams between
the weeping willows that fringe its
banks and 1t vas all 40 beautiful that
bevies Of little children played there all
day along with squirrels and the birds
of many brilliant hues,
BY daylight Springvale park seemed
vertically the haunt Of all the good
fairies. Then the girl came there, de-
spondent, and Killed herself above the
lake, and after her came the ghosts and
ghouls
II is still quite well remembered that
she was a poor girl who had journeyed
to Atlanta from some outlying town In
a desperate hope that she would nnd
work here and a chance to earn the
honorable living that she craved. She
found no work, and after many days
when the last OF her money was gone
she made her way one evening 10 the
dark pond of water in the heart Of
SpringvaIe and took the life that she
thought hopeless
