ChangeabIe Climate
IS A CONSTANT THREAT TO THE
HEALTH OF THE PEOPLE.

DR.. Hartman, of Columbus, Ohio,
discusses an important health topic.
He says:
Yes. it is the climate, not the germs.
that we have to fear in this country.
The germs are present, to be sure,
and are OF some significance in
diagnosis. Climate, a changeable
climate, is the true cause OF disease.
The atmospheric pressure varies, the
humidity of the atmosphere changes.
Every day the temperature rises and
falls. All this presents to the body
very great trials to adjust to.
The area of high pressure forms in
the northwest. Moves rapidly south
east, subjecting millions of our
population to its influence. The re-
suit is, thousands upon thousands of
people catch cold. A small per cent
OF these thousands do not get well of
their cold. It goes into pneumonia,
or chronic catarrh, or bronchitis, or
laryngitis. or pleurisy.
Now. what am getting at is this.
These climatic changes are inevitable.
No one can prevent them. The very
best we can do is to prepare for
them, defend ourselves against them.
Good health Is the best preventive.
The very best. Vigorous health, with
excess vitality. this is Natures own
preventive and protection.
We do not all have this, however.
Some of US must have assistance.
The assistance that use for myself.
would recommend for my friends to
use, my neighbors and my country
men, Is Pe-ru-na. Keep Pe-ru-na in
the house.
II the children indicate they are
catching cold, give them Pe-ru-na.
II the parents, the grandfather or
grandmother. present those symptoms
that are so well known which precede
a cold, few doses of Pe-ru-na and
the deed Is done.
Some people are very subject to
colds. Others who have weak lungs
and are timid about our winter
weather, take Pe-ru-na off and on
during the whole winter season.
The plan Is good one. The medicine
is inexpensive. It, does no possible
harm to the system. 1t keeps the
appetite regular and keen. 1t as
sists digestion and helps the user
through the Indictment weather Of
winter.

DETECTING COUNJEREE1IS.
The Feel of the Paper the First

The hand is quicker than the eye

ton of silk fiber in the bill itself, but
eau of the treatment the stock
receives in printing. The silk threads
are sometimes initiated by pen-and-
ink lines, but these do not bear close
examination. The engraving has
been the greatest protection, for even
photo-engraving fails to bring out
the proper color values, and
ing by the craving tool makes the
lines heavy and irregular. Photo
graphy also fails in reproducing the
color of the seal, which must be
washed in with water color, the black
lines OF the engraving showing
through in counterfeits.
The most dangerous counterfeit is
that in which a genuine bill Of lower
denomination is bleached out and a
false plate showing a high denomi-
nation placed upon it. Here is a gen.

Pushing DcwbcTry Farming.
Dewberry farming is pushing
farther up into the Deep River eoun-
try, and while IL is not an innovation
introduced under the Mcconnell man
agement it is encouraged by these peo-

seventy full cars Of berries from their
line alone. and the signs are that the
crop this ason will De greater.
1t is interesting 10 observe among
the forest products of this Deep River
section that railroad ties from the
fine tough oaks are coins ont in large
quantities to the Pennsylvania rail
DAD up in the Northern States. and
that lumber is shipped from here 20
Maine alone with many other States.
The forest woods are of great va
riety, and of excellent quality. Mr.. Me-
Council is figuring that the gum.
jack pine and other soft woods in
the neighborhood might prove attrac-
