Southern Cypress Has Many colo-s.

Southern cypress Has many CoiocS.
Southern bald cypress, is about the
most variable in color Of any Of our
native woods. and in different locaIi-
ties is known us red cypress, yellow
cypress, white cypress and black cy-
press.
There is rather prevalent belief
that cypress with dark coiored heart
wood is the most durable, but the opin-
ion Of the United States forest pro-
ducts laboratory is that as far as dur
ability is concerned the color of the
wood makes very little difference:
In service records Obtained by the
laboratory, any differencein the length
Of service of red cypress and yellow
cypress appears to be due entirely to Il
difference in the amount of sapwood
in the timbers. Cypress trees with
light-colored heartWood usually have
more sapwoOd than those with dark
colored heartwood, and sapwood is not
resistant to decay.
The.important thing, if durability is
desired, appears to be to select the
heartwood Of cypress regardless Of its
shade.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
By David Cory.

There were no telegraph poles to count
as Puss Junior and the Mermaid Prin-
cess looked out of the window Of the
Iceberg Express. Instead, there were
numerous fish, swimming here and there,
some Of gorgeous color others Of white
or silver hue. Hills and valleys Of sand.
as well as long meadows of seaweed,
stretched away for miles and miles.
Strange looking sea animals crawled
close to the rushing train. If they came
too close, the suction of the water drew
them along until they disappeared be-
meath the train. As darkness settled
down over the quiet deep, Puss Junior
turned from the window with a sigh. Il

said the Mermaid Princess On their re-

Soft green seaweed curtains hung grace
fully to the floor, one of them being
drawn aside, showing a little white bed.
1t looked as comfortable as her own lit

Softly the sea bells are ringing away,

spray,

Over and over again in his dreams lit

suddenly, the bells seemed TO change
their tune They changed out wildly,
until, with a sudden loud crash, they
awoke him with a start. The engine
whistle was sending fourth loud, warn

In a number of cases we are going to

How can this be done?

en-, and men too, have publicly testified a.
to how this great tonic relieved them Of
dizzy spells, nervousness, sleeplessness,

due to feeble or slow digestion or to
habitual constipation
From time to time their statements

Is interesting to note what people in
other cities are saying about Pepgen. In
Springfield, Ohio, scores of prominent
persons have recommended Pepgen. In
fact, Pepgen is being highly Endorsed
wherever 1t has been introduced.
Mrs. Clara Dunn, 672 Gallagher street,
Springfield, furnishes a good example Of
the general sentiment in that city, Mrs.
Dunn says:
For more than a year I suffered with
kidney trouble until my system was all
broken down. At times my limbs were
badly swollen from my feet to my knees.
My muscles grew so sore that 1 could
scarcely touch them without screaming.

my stomach became so disordered that

After the first few doses of Pepgen I
felt improved. As l continued to take it
l continued to get better. The first thing
I noticed was that l was not constipated
Then gradually my appetite improved.
And lastly the soreness in my back dis
appeared, which was positive proof to
me that Pepgen had relieved my kidney
trouble.

g. If the patient must stay at nome
let him follow explicitly the advice
of his doctor or of the board Of
health nurse. Let him live out
doors, sleep out doors, aud take
every advantage Of the open air. He
has as good a chance to get well in
his own town as anywhere else. The
climate is Of little Importance. About
as many people get well under proper
treatment in indianapolis as in
Colorado.
8. Once the disease is cured. the
patient must live a fairly careful
life. This means moderation and
careful adjustment to work and to
living. 1t means normal, not Excess
sive living.
7. The patient should also remem-
Der that he has d communicable dis
ease and that he must be careful
with coughing and sputum If he is
not to infect others.
There is no royal road to a cure II
tuberculosis. 1t requires patience an(
cooperation, persistence and courage. I
is up to the patient II he is to get well
more than to the doctor or to anyone
else.
Much Of the best work of the worlt
has been done by tuberculosis patients
whether cured or not. For instance
Robert Louis Stevenson, Theodore
Roosevelt and Edward L. Trudeau, thu
founder Of the first tuberculosis sana
torium in this country at Saranac Lake
We are winning the fight against
tuberculosis. We are going to fight II
to a finish. This means an attack at al
possible points-we shall fight 1t out
along these lines II 1t takes all summer
1t is going to take many summers t
finish the fight. 1t can be done If al

two meals of the day, having dinner
at noon, or let the little people have
supper by themselves earlier than the

Children under five should never be

THE SAILORS STAR.

While other watchers of the night
Are rowing round the sky
In Lyra's scintillating group
II keeps its station high,
A lighthouse In the armament
For ships both near and far,
Serene and steady all the year,
The sailors special star.
On lonely seas where tall white sails
In stately beauty go.
And ocean lanes where liners race
With roaring wakes of snow.
A thousand quadrants mirror back
The pure celestial light
That never falls from port to port
To lead the sailor right.
1t shone above the viking ships
That westward boldly bore.
1t led the little Mayfiower safe
To Plymouth's rocky shore.
And long as men in sail or steam
The trackless pillows roam,
Vega will guide the outward bound.
And bring the sailor home.
