Precipitation and Digestion.

Precipitation depends on the circu lstion of the blood. The body not only requires nourishment from the blood for cell growth and repair but also demands the separation and elimination of waste which cannot be converted into blood and which must be thrown off daily in the normal healthy person.
 Precipitation is continuous process invisible during periods of inactivity or sedentary life.e Better condition of play, exercise or work, even in middle age or inhrm adults, which will promote healthy circulation and convey an abundance of blood to the glands of the skin, is desired for increased precipitation.
 Physicians of the present day are we'll aware that the skin does not play the important part 1t was formerly supposed to perform in elimination. But it is a great cleansing agent and a sort of health barometer which

 Ruth made it very plain by her it. llstrations with the Seventh and Eighth Commandments. A man treats the breaking of the Seventh Commandment as a joke. To the wo- man it always spells tragedy.
 A woman hates to confess that her husband is something direputsble in the eyes of other men. Because I vas a woman l knew how hard if would be for Ruth to say this about her husband and I knew that she had some peculiar motive in doing so.

STRANGE NEIGHBoRs.

In the circus Cuffy Bear met many strange animals that he had never seen nor heard of before. If anybody had told him before he left home that that there were such creatures in the world, he wouldn't have believed 1t.
 Living as he did among these odd new neighbors, he sometimes wonder ed If he wasn't growing to look like them himself. Now and then he would feel of his neck to see if it was stretching out like camel's or siraffe's Often he turned his head to look for hump on his back. And he couldn't help fearing that in time he would grow long tufted tail like old Caesar the Lions.

Improvement in transportation
conditions. The operating in

These figures become even more
impressive when read in come

when operating income averaged

That the railroads are giving

Especially significant is the in
crease in the earnings OF South

come OF those railroads for Jan

OF s.53 per cent. on valuation.
as against a return OF csc per

convincing evidence OF increasing
prosperity in the South, for the
increase in earnings warrants de-
auctions that general business is
increasingly active.
