Weekly Health Talks
GOING BACK TO NATURE
BY DIR. w. LUCAS.

People get sick because they go
away from Nature, and the only way
to get well is to go back. Something
grows out Of the ground in the form
of vegetation to cure almost every i'll.
Some of these vegetable growths are
understood by man, and some are not.
Animals, it would seem, know what to
do when they are sick better than
Een and women. Observers have
noted that sick horse, dog or cat
will stop eating food and seek out
some vegetable growth in the field or
yard, which, when found and eaten,
often restores appetite and health.
Haven't you seen these animals do
this very thing yourself?
DIR. Pierce, of Buffalo, II. Y, long since
found the herbs and roots provided by
Nature to overcome constipation. and he
had these vegetables collected and made
up of Mayapple, leaves of Aloe, root OF
Jalap, into little white sugar-coated pills,
that he called DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
You must understand that when your in
testines are stopped up, poisons and de-
cayed matter are imprisoned in your sys-
tenn, and these are carried by the blood
throughout your body. Thus does your
head ache, you get dizzy, you can't sleep,
your skin may break out, your appetite de-
clines, you get tired and respondent AZ
matter of fact, you may get sick all
over. Don't you see how useless all this
suffering is? All that is often needed is
a few Of DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets,
which he has placed in all drug stores for
your convenience and health. Try them
by all means. They are probably the very
thing you need right now.

Height of Peaks Among the
Canadian Rocky Mountains

Although there are many mountains
in the Canadian Rockies still to be
measured, list compiled by the Ca
madam Pacific railway in 1916 showed
that the number of peaks exceeding TO-
900 feet then numbered 80, of which
AZ reached or exceeded 10000 feet,
while one exceeded 1900 feet. One,
called the President, in honor of Pres,
ident Mckinley measured 1O,2S7 feet
in height, and the Vice President meas
ured 10,040. One, named Wilson, In
honor of President Wilson, measured
1000 feet. The two highest peaks in
Canada are Mt. Alberta and Mt. Co
lumbia, both 1880 feet.

Is wanted. In the opinion Of men OF
science, it should be continuous
through ten or twenty years. 1t has
been shown how little definite infor-
nation the world has about the largest
of the oceans. One specialist declares
that in the north Pacific there is
tract twice as large as the United
States that has been crossed by only
a single line of sounding at intervals
of $50 miles wide, and that there are
a number of tracts as large as this
country that are entirely unfathomed.

A Valuable Tree.

The cashew nut tree of western In

nut is the fruit of an evergreen tree

South America. 1t is native to South

an outpost nation guarding q frontier
Of civilization, strongly urged the crea-
ton of an immediate international
army and navy to enforce the rulings

placing of it in France until all danger
of an attack by Germany was at an

CHARGE CHURCH
BROKE CONTRACT
File Petitions in Equity
Against Christian Science
Organization of Boston.
By United Press /:

BY United Press:
BOSTON, March 2s.-The First
Church Of Christ. Scientist. of Nash
vile, Tenn. and Henry NJ. Mason
and Annie o. Mason Of Nashville
have filed petitions in equity in the
supreme court against the directors
of the First Church of Christ, Scien-
fist, of Boston, and the trustees Of
the Christian Science Publishing So
ciety. The petitions charge breach
Of contract by the trustees of the
publishing society and allege that
the directors of the Mother church
Of Boston induced this action. An
order OF notice was issued, return
able April s. when a preliminary
hearing will be held.
1t is claimed by the petitioners
that the directors of the mother
church of Boston a few years ago
illegally invested them and encour-
aged some of the members Of the
First church, in Nashville, to leave
it's membership and form a so
called Christian Science society"
The petitioners claim that the di-
rectors OF the mother church or
dered the Nashville chuch to recog-
nize the Christian Science society
and upon refusal Of the directors Of
the church to do so the directors Of
the mother church ordered the Nash
Vile church stricken from the list
of churches in the official publica-
ton of the Christian Science church.
