IF You Have tuberculosis

1t is most important that you should
pay proper attention to diet and living
conditions, and get plenty of rest and
fresh air day and night. Many life
claimed by this disease might have been
saved by timely attention to these mat
tiers. In most cases, however, a run
down system needs assistance. Under
these circumstances, try Eckman's Al
terative, lime treatment which has
the unique quality of being easily as
simulated by the average person.
Give Nature every chance, but streng-
then your own chances by using this
remedy, which has effected beneficial
results in many cases.
No undue claims are made for Ii, but
1t has helped in many cases. And it Is
safe to try, for it contains no opiates,
narcotics or habit forming drugs. From
your druggist or direct.

Mankind Has Mostly
Good Intentions. Il

That humankind is bent on not
being so bad at heart is easy to be-
lieve when we take the time to
glance at the history of the race.
Practically every man has good
intentions. He may be misguided, and
oftentimes 30 much 80 as to be dan
gerous, but if the world could see the
very intent it would be obliged, in
many instances, at least, to judge
man less harshly.
1t has been shown by the varied ex-
periences Of prison life that there is
some real good in practically every
man. The flesh may be too weak to
Withstand temptation in an unguarded
moment, but the real intent is more
often to do the right thing.
If the world would try to accuston
itself to seeing only good in the life
of every man there would be less
troubles to worry over and fewer lives
ruined in their influence and power
for good.
John Greelief Whittier must have
had vision Of the inner life of man
when he pennsd the following lines
and made them expressive Of his own
mind and heart:
make my mortal dreams come true
With the work I fain would do;
Clothe with life the weak intent,
Let me be the thing / meant"
