Lilies Grow In
American Deserts

Surprising as it is, for those who
regard the lily as plant only to be
found growing in rich, moist soil. in
the shady woods or fertile meadows,
a true member Of the lily family
grows wild in the desert areas of the
South and Southwestern parts Of this
country. These lilies are the Yuccas.
Writing in the Illustrated World,
E. Ellis Reeks describes these lilies:
"Strange, interesting plants are the
Yuccae, with many names and vari-
Gus uses. Spanish bayonde, needle
and-thread plant, and soap vea9 are
some of the sobriquets applied to
them and derived from the qualities
of leaves or roots. Some species con-
sist merely of clumps of dagger
like leaves with no apparent stalk,
while others have tree-shaped forms
that may attain a height of thirty
feet or more. In all, the leaf blades
are long and narrow, needle-pointed
and fibrous-margined; the blossoms

ish-white, growing in tall spikes or
large clusters. The power Of the
plant to resist the drought Of the
desert comes from the fact that the
thick roots and stalks form excellent
storage reservoirs for the water
which is supplied by the scanty rain
fall, while the wax-coated foliage
gives out no moisture to the air.
"From earliest times the yucca has
held an important place economically
in the lives of the inhabitants Of the
Southwest. Relics from the ancient
ruins of the cliff dwellers reveal many
articles, such as mats, baskets, cords
and ropes, and even crude fabrics
made of its fiber; and today it is put
to much the same uses by the present
Indians. The roots Of one species
make the soap bark Of commerce
while other roots and seeds are said
to possess medical qualities and are
used by the natives in cases Of sick.

fruits, and the blossom, stalks and

A lad at public school was asked
to give as briefly as possible the rea-
sons for the defeat of the Spanish
Armada lin the days of Queen Eliza

He gave his answer in fourteen
words. He wrote: "The defeat was
caused by the Spaniards' lack of three
ships - Seamanship, Workmanship

So we might say that many firm

NATURE AND HEALTH.

NAlONE AND HEALTH.
In all nature, there are few babies
born that are more helpless than the
the human baby. None that remain
helpless for so long a period and none
that require so many years to reach
maturity and full growth, except the
elephant.
This animal requires from 20
to 30 years in which to grow into
enormous size. 1t starts out, however
with weight of from 200 to 800
pounds and, like nearly all other ami
mails, except man, does not grow old
and decrepit until about five times
the years required for maturity have
passed. Man comes into the world
minus sight, hearing, smelling, tast-
ing and with very little sense of
touch. He is absolutely helpless for
many months and practically so for
several years.
He is taught to eat all sorts of food
connections and he shuts himself up
in houses devoid of sunshine and fresh
air.
Naturally, he gets old and worn
out before he gets fairly started. It
takes man from 20 to 35 years to fully
mature, and it is very rare that he
lives five times as long as he had on
reaching maturity.
Some men appear to be fully ma
tured at 18 to 20 years, while many
women appear to mature even earlier
but in these things appearances are
more or less deceiving.
Under natural conditions and with
natural diet, most men, as we'll as wo-
men, are fully matured around 25
years, but some are not, In my own
experience, think I did not stop ply
slcal development until I was 33
years old.
expect to reach my prime, or
best years, at about three times that
number. It will be time enough then
to plan for the other two periods.
| To retain the full enjoyment of
ones faculties in completing ones
cycle of physical life, it is necessary
to know how to live in harmony with
nature, to observe her laws and keep
free from fear. Hate, anger, jealousy
and worry are offsprings Of fear.
Fear gives birth to the most deadly
poisons and they react upon you.
/ If you hate anyone it is because
you fear him. Analyze your own
mind and you will know this is true.
As worry is an offspring of fear, it
creates poison within you. No drugs
no system of diet, no kind Of treat
ment will cure you of that sickness,
unless it first removes fear.
By removing fear, no matter what
process is used, worry then ceases au-
tomatically and nature does the cur
ing.
The man who takes his food just
as nature prepared it cones nearest
to the laws Of nature in his diet and
stands the best chance of living out
five times the years required for his
maturity. know a few who are
approa ching the ideal method Of liv-
ing. In time, these laws will be a
part Of our school system and when

simply become an extinct species.
In making changes in the diet one
must know how to supply the neces-

natural question of food selection.
Some people get panicky and worry
about this food and that food. .s4sss

you are afraid to eat good, wholesome
