HOMEOPATHY

"The trend Of modern medicine is
toward homeopathy. The action OF
bacterins, vaccines. and remedial
agents Of this kind a best be ex-
planned upon the principle Of homeo-
pathy. The small doses in which
some of these-notably tuberculin-is
employed have prevented any further
rtdicule Of homeopathic doses. Prof.
Richard Cabot, of Harvard Medical
School, states that the. small doses of
tuberculin in tuberculosis are homeo-
pathic as are also bacterial Vaccines.
He is also authority for the statement
that radio-therapeutics is a striking
example Of the HOMEOPATHIC principle.
Such men as Wright Of London, Robin
and Hubbard of Paris. Won Behring,
Fox Of Johns Hopkins. and other adj
vanced thinkers in the old school have
either openly avowed the truth Of
homeopathy OF else have practically
shown it in the results Of their in
vestigations.
Veterinary medicine also bears
striking testimony to the value Of
homeopathy. DIR. Brasol: Of. st. Pet
ersburg, is authority for the state
ment that nearly all the high-class
horse breeders&in Russia give nothing
but homeopathic prescriptions 70 their
horses and Dr.. .Vasconce1lo states that
homeopathy has been introduced into
the Brazilian army because 1t has been
proved to be more eflcacious."

So little and little he got farther
out in the cornheld and. away from
the safe, thick cover Of the Green
Meadows. Right in the midst Of the
rnaddest chase after that little short
tail a shadow passed over him. A
sudden chill Of fear clutched his heart.
He looked up. There was a great bird
sailing overhead. He didn't. know
who it was. but he guessed. He had
heard Danny Meadow Mouse tell about
fierce Redtail the Hawk and some
thing told him that this great bird
with the keen eyes was Redtail. Now
If Little Mite had been under some
thing he probably would have sat
perfectly still. which would have been
the right thing to do But he was
right out in the open and at the sight
of those hungry-looking eyes a great
terror took possession of him and he
just couldn't keep still as he should
have done. With a little faint squeak
Of fright he ran.
Now the instant he ran. Redtail
saw him. With a few strong beats of
his great wings he was right over
Little Mite. He half closed his wings
and shot down with his great cruel
claws stretched wide. Something
prompted Mite to dodge Just then as
he had learned to do in the games at
home. Redtail missed him and had
to fly back in the sky to try again.
Twice this happened and then quite
suddenly Redtail gave up. the chase

The days and the nights were very
long to Little Mite. the runaway baby
of Danny Meadow Mouse, and he
wished and he wished and he wished
that he never had thought Of trying
to see the Great World. Now that
he was out in the Great World it
seemed to him q. dreadfully cruel
place, inc he didn't feel safe a min
ute-not a single minute. 1t seemed
to him thai no sooner had he escaped
danger than he walked straight
into another, yet all the time he was
trying his best to keep out Of danger.
He thought of that dear safe homc
under the pile of old cornstalks a
great many times, and wished with
all his heart that he was back there
with his brother and sisters. He
wondered If they missed him and If
his father n mother had tried to
find him. When he thought that. he
might never see them again, for he
had tried and tried to find his way
back and couldn't, his eyes filed with
tears.
Blu he didn't have a great deal of
time for this kind Of thing. He was
too busy getting enough to eat and
trying to keep out of trouble. He was
learning how to take care of himself.

broken and bruised and weak,
Battling in from the stormy lakes my

Wrapped in the trailing fog-wreaths,
cropping meath sullen skies
Your whistles call to the harbor's
arms seeking the harbor's eyes.
"In from the waves that beckon,
crash and whisper and run,
When the mad nor'easter Kisses by
and the cloud-rack wells the
sun,
In from the siren voices, ealing to
ship and barque,
Where the Lake Queen waits her low
ers, down in the utter dark.
SIN from the far horizon, I beckon
you. one by one,
Where the white gulls gather and cir

Till the in-rolled fog and the break

seem ,
Like the fears Of a day forgotten, the
mists of a vanished dream.
IT whisper to you in the night time
of rest at the journeys end,
OF welcoming light in a maiden's eye
where tears and laughter
I call to you from the darkness, ever
my lanterns burn
To guide you back to my sheltering
arms. that wait and hunger

be fully reconciled to her father-in-
law, who did not want his son to wed
her at all. But having social charm
and many friends, she had a. posi-

Recently she made a remark about
the elder Astor's money bags, a re-
mark so sharp that it hurt the mil

consequence Astor offered for sale two
