by Cuptuln liirnr In Jr t Demand in
Vicinity of Th Ir Humes
In tho winter of 1902 3 Mr Scbroeppel
was confined to his bed by n soverc at
tack of rheumatism His doctors treat
ment proved unsuccessful but ho subse
quently regained his health by means
which ho describes with great enthu
siasm
After five or six weeks of helpless
ness and pain said he during which
I was receiving regular visits from tho
doctor I felt as bad us ever Just then
my mother n woman eighty years of
age paid mo a visit Slits had received
great benefit from Dr Williams Pink
Pills and she was confident they would
Jiolp me At her solicitation I gavo up
tho doctors treatment and took tho pills
in its place
And wero you cured as tho result of
taking her advice
Yes quickly and thoroughly Be
fore tho second box was finished I felt
very manifest improvement and within
two weeks I was able to leave my bed and
take up my neglected farm work I con
tinued to use tho pills however until
eight boxes had been taken although
long before that I felt that every ves
tige of the disease had been eradicated
Aro there no traces loft
Absolutely none For a year and
three months there has never been tho
slightest return of the old trouble For
this happy result I aud my family freely
praise Dr Williams Pink Pills
Within the bounds of China township
St Clair count Mich there is no bet
ter known farmer than Mr Henry
Scbroeppel His cure has therefore nat
urally attracted a great deal of attention
One of Mr Schroeppels neighbors Cap
tain George Balfour after hearing of tho
salutarv results in Mr Schroeppels case
decided to try Dr Williams Pink Pills
for an attack of rheumatism from which
ho was himself suffering He took eight
or ten boxes and now declares himself
free from the painful ailment
Ibis little wonder that Dr Williams
Pink Pills are much in favor in the com
munity where Mr Scbroeppel and Cap
tain Balfour arc so well and favorably
known They are sold by all druggists
and are equally successful in curing
neuralgia sciatica and partial paralysis
Women can manage a flirtation and
avoid producing ugly complications

TO LIVE LONG AND WELL
How Tuberculosis and Kindred Ills May Be
Avoided Alleviated and Cured
Suppression of Consumption
Tuberculosis can be suppressed It
is not necqssary for a person to die be
cause he has consumption Thousands
of men and women have been sacri
ficed who might have been alive to
day if only the right procedure had
been adopted That which is neces
sary for the mastery of this disease
is to return to nature to live natur
ally in the fresh air develop the lungs
and eat proper food
Tuberculosis is a low level disease
People are not subject to it until their
tissues have become vitiated and their
whole bodies weakened
To live a natural life is the only
safeguard against tuberculosis One
climate may do as well as another if
only one lives out of doors gets plenty
of cold fresh air bathes the body with
cold water several times a day and
takes as much exercise as he can
stand
Child Labor in Factories
The physician in attendance at a
municipal lodging house in Chicago
has within tho past year been making
a careful inquiry into the history of
the tramps who have become the citys
guests He has found that a large
proportion of the tramps give a history
of having been employed in factories
or in other debilitating occupations in
boyhood Our artificial modern life
is making multitudes of human wrecks
one class of whom is represented by
the homeless friendless disheartened
men known as tramps Fortunate in
deed are the boys and girls who live
in country homes and have the oppor
tunity of growing up in contact with
nature
How do You Eat
It is safe to say that modern cook
ing develops business for both the sa
loonkeeper and the undertaker When
a boy eats mustard plasters in the
form of food that is almost saturated
Avith fiery spices and irritating condi
ments a thirst is created that nothing
but liquor or cigarets will satisfy Man
is admonished to eat for strength
and not for drunkenness but in these
days anything that will tickle the four
square inches of taste surface is con
sidered good food although it may
contain scarcely any of the elements
that nature requires to replace broken
down tissues and to rebuild the worn
out brain As a consequence the vi-
the transportation of the following i tality and physical resistance soon
cies ueuveen stations in me state ot no- - iUnt t1lo
i ctiujii auiil a iuu uu umt - -
ual falls an easy prey to any microbe
with which he may chance to come in
contact
Tent Life Cures Consumption
A doctor in Denver some time ago
made some experiments with consump
tives A tent colony was established
a little way out of Denver and the
patients progressed fairly well during
the first part of the winter But by
and by there was a blizzard and the
thermometer went down to 20 degrees
below zero and then they began to
improve very fast One woman did
not seem to improve at all until the
temperature reached this mark and
then she improved rapidly She had
had no appetite but that 20 degrees
below zero weather gave her an appe
tite which was an indication that the
body was beginning to work naturally
that the assimilative processes were
being resumed and from that time she
kept on improving
Metal will rust if not used and the
body will become diseased if not exer
cised Exchange
Condiments Create False Appetite
There is absolutely no food value
in mustard pepper ginger capsicum
and such things and some of them
spiced pickles for instance are indi
gestible as sawdust But these things
people say have a relish Those who
have a good healty appetite do not
feel the need of anything of that sort
for a relish
A condiment is something which
creates a false demand for food It
enables us to eat when we really have
no appetite Appetite is an evidence
of gastric juice with which to digest
food Lack of appetite is an evidence
that one is not in a condition to digest
food But a condiment often produces
a false impression resembling appe
tite making one think that he is ready
for food when he is not It is there
fore a deceiver to be especially avoid
ed by those who have no appetite
Mustard pepper spices of all sorts are
enemies to health
If my next door neighbor chooses to
have his drains in such a state as to
create a poisonous atmosphere which
I breathe at the risk of typhus
he restricts my just freedom to
live just as much as if he went about
with a pistol threatening my life
Prof Huxley
Natural Cure for Tuberculosis
A Swedish doctor some fourteen or
fifteen years ago succeeded by a very
crude method in curing patients who
have been given up to die His prac
tice was first of all to rub the patient
three times a day with a towel wet
in very cold water A little later he
put the patient in a tub of water at
about 60 degrees rubbing him vigor
ously for about a minute and later as
the patient became better able to
endure the cold water he was plunged
into a tub full of ice water This was
done three times a day Think of
those poor consumptives Neverthe
less they got well The cold water
with the rubbing following produced
such a powerful reaction that the
whole body was stimulated to In
creased vital activity and recovery fol
lcwpd
Here is another case A young mtfh
in New York who was getting ready
to go to the Klondike went into prac
tice to convince his friends that ho
would not freeze to death Out of a
large buffalo robe he made a bag
pitched a tent in the back yard and
slept in the tent in the buffalo bag all
the winter without suffering any In
jury from the cold
And another A cultured lady In
New Jersey who made up her mind
that she needed a little hardening
slept out of doors all last winter She
had her bed put out on the second
story veranda and an awning put up
with a net around it to keep the night
hawks away Plenty of clothing was
provided a cap worn to keep the ears
from freezing and she got along so
well that she slept out of doors the
entire winter
A National Error
Our cities are growing so rapidly
that only about one lialf of our popula
tion are now living in the country Dr
Gould speaking of the wrong of shut
ting men and women up in houses and
forcing them into sedentary occupa
tions says There is enough land and
opportunity if both were allowed and
utilized to give every human being a
livelihood that will permit life of a
normal length lie adds that with
proper hygienic living especially in
youth and with right lung expansion
and development no person should
have tuberculosis
Home Sanitariums
In New York city consumptives are
building little huts on the tops of the
houses and are recovering Outside
New York Boston and other large
cities tent colonies where consump
tives can live out of doors are being
established Every city ought to have
outside it a camp where tubercular
patients can live and get well The air
inside the city is not so good as it
is outside but on the tops of the
houses where the sun can shine it
is a great deal better than it is in the
damp dirty buildings in which most
city people live
Some Donts About Dress
Dont dress the neck too warm when
going out in cold weather A little
extra protection is required for tho
ears but it is not necessary to muffle
up the neck with thick furs to protect
the ears Warm wrappings about the
neck cause the skin of the neck to
become moistened with perspiration
When the wrappings are removed In
doors the slow cooling which takes
place in consequence of the evapora
tion chills the part and may produce
sore throat or nasal catarrh
Dont wear rubbers indoors nor out
of doors except when it is necessary
to prevent wetting the feet Rubbers
being impervious to air prevent evap
oration so that the perspiration is re
tained and the shoes and stockings
become damp from the perspiration
When the rubbers are removed evap
oration chills the feet the same as if
they had been wet by the rain or by
walking on a wet pavement On re
moving the rubbers after they have
teen worn for some time it is a good
precaution to remove the shoes and
stockings and put on dry ones If this
cannot be conveniently done care
should be taken to keep the feet warm
until the shoes are dry The rubbers
should be dried before wearing again
