took with her a quantity of the heal : ing bark, and thus was the first per son to introduce it into Europe. Sub sequently some of the Jesuit nilsson aries in Brazil sent parcels of the powdered bark to Rome, whence it was distributed by the Cardinal de Lugo to other members of the fra ternity throughout Europe. It was therefore often called "Jesuits' bark and som etimes "CardinaIS bark. v Something over a hundred years af- ter the Countess of Chinchon had in troduccd it into Spain, Linnaeus, the great Swedish - botaniSt, in making 3 his remarkable classification of all known trees and plants, to com memorate the service rendered to mankind by that lady, named t he genus which yields the bark Chin chOna, and subsequently, still further immorta1izcd the name by giving it to the great family Of trees and plants now known as the thinChOnaceaSe, which includes not only the Chinchon- ac but also the ipecacuanas and the coffees.'
 In their native habitat in Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Columbia, the trees flourish in a cool and equabIe temperature, on the slopes and in the valleys and raVines of the noun tains, surrounded by the most ma- Jestic scenery. never descending below an elevation of 2.50O, and ascending as high as 5000 feet above the sea- When in good soil and under favor, able circumstances, they become large forest trees: on the higher elevations and when crowded and growing in rock ground, they frequently run uD to great heights without a branch; and at the upper limit of their zone they become mere shrubs. The leaves in the finest species are lanceolate, with shining surface of bright green, traversed by crimson veins. and pet ioles of the same color The flowers are small and hang in clustering pan 1cles, like lilacs, generally of a deep roseate color, paler near the stalk dark crimson within the tube, with curly hairs bordering the laciniae of the corolla, and give forth a delicious fragrance.
 About 55 years ago Sir Clements Markham, the English scientist and traveller, succeeded in securing a quantity of seeds and plants of the various valuable species of the chin chonaceae, which were taken to India for the purpose of starting chinchona plantations. Marked success followed the experiment, and subsequently, plantations were started in Ceylon and Jamaica. The Dutch were sue cesSful in their efforts in Java. The plantation product drove out the for est product from the worlds markets and the world has depended upon these countries to supply it.

Jump from Bed
 in Morning and
 Drink Hot Water
Tells why everyone should drink hot water each morning
 before breakfast.

Why is man and woman, half the time, feeling nervous, Respondent, worried; some days headachy, dull and unstrung; some days really in- capacitated by illness.
 If we all would practice inside bathing, what gratifying change would take place Instead of thou sands of half-sick, anaemic-looking souls with pastN, muddy compleXions we should see crowds of happy, healthy, rOsy-Cheeked people every- where. The reason is that the human system does not rid itself each day of all the waste which it accumulates under our present mode of living. For every ounce of food and drink taken into the system nearly an ounce of waste material must be carried out, else it ferments and forms ptOmaine- like poisons which are absorbed into the blood.
 Just as necessary as it is to clean the ashes from the furnace each day, before the fire will burn bright and hot, so we must each morning clear the inside organs of the previous days accumulation of indigestible waste and body toxins. Men and women, whether sick or well, are advised to drink each morning, before break fast, a glass of real hot water with teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, as a harmless means of washing out of the stomach liver, kidneys and bowels the indigestible material, waste, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food ino the stomach.
 Millions of people who had their turn at constipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach, nervous days and sleep less nights have become real cranlls about the morning inside-bath. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will not cost much at the drug store, but is sufficient to demonstrate to any one, it's cleansing, sweetenlng and freshening effect upon the system.

Remedy Prescribed
 by Nany Doctors
Compound of Simple Laxa- tive Herbs Proves Most
 Efficient.

Dr. w. A. Evans, Writing for the Chicago Tribune, makes the assertion that practically everyone, at sometime or other, suffers from constipation This applies regardless of age or con- dition in life.
 The congestion of stomach waste in the bowels is evidenced in various ways; bloat eructation of foful stomach gases, sick headache langouf, all indicate constipation, and call for prompt attention, not only to relieve the present discomfort but also to avoid possible disease that follows neglect of this important function.
 Harsh cathartics and violent purga tives should not be employed, as these afford only temporary relief, while they serve to shock the entire system. A mild laxative such as Dr. CaldWells Syrup Pepsin is far preferable and is now the remedy generally used and prescribed by many doctors It is free from opiate or narcotic drugs, acts easily and pleasantly, without gripping or other pain and is safe effective family remedy
