Consumption Cure
An Illinois friend whose wife was
very greatly benefited by the follow
ing prescription for consumption tak
en from an English medical journal,
sends It to us for publication:
Put one dozen whole lemons in
cold water and boil until soft (not
too soft); roll and squeeze until the
juice and pulp is all extracted; sweet
en enough to be palatable. Use as
many as a dozen a day. Should they
cause pain or looseness of the bowels,
lessen the quantity and use five or
six a day. By the time you have
used five or six dozen you will begin
to gain strength and have an appetite.
As you get better you need not use
so many. Follow these directions and
we know you will never regret it
If there is any help for you. Keep it
up faithfully. We know of two cases
where both patients were given up
I by the physicians and were in the
last stages of consumption, yet both
were cured by using lemons accord
ing to the directions we have given.
One lady In particular was bedridden
and very low, and had tried everything
money could procure, but all in vain.
She was persuaded to try lemons, and
accordingly she began to use them in
February, and in April she weighed
140 pounds. She is a well woman
today and likely to live as long as any
iOf us. Do not boil the lemons too

What the Labels Must Show
The branding of meat products will
have to undergo a radical reform, ac
cording to rules issued by Secretary
Wilson of the department of agricul
ture. The long established system of
deception in pet names of meat pro
ducts evidently must go. The label
must now give the true name of the
product, and the true names of the
manufacturer and of "lace of man
ufacture must appear it any are
given.
Lard must not be labelol leaf lard
unless it is what it is represented to
be. Pictures cannot be used to de
ceive; for instance, the picture of a
chicken must not appear on a label
marking a package that contains pok
or veal. Such words as "special,"
"superior," "fancy," and "selected" no
longer go on inferior products. An
other branding fraud must cease. Vir
ginia ham, English, Bologna and
Frankforter sausage are familiar
names placed upon products that never
came from the places indicated. Such
branding must now be modified by
using the word style. For instance,
Virginia style ham or Bologna style
sausage.
In the case of mixture the fact
must appear on label. Sausage, hash
and mince tell the story without ex
planation. Other mixtures must be
marked compound. In the case of
fats and oils the ingredients must ap
pear. Such names as "Cottolene,"
"Cottosuet" must be followed by a
list of the ingredients. Flour or other
cereals may be used in veal, pork or
beef loaf or pate, soups or gravies
without the fact appearing on the la
bel. In canned products not marked
loaf, pate or soup the label must show
the presence of flour if it is used.
Finding a Market for American Teas
After it has been shown to be prac
ticable to grow the tea plant success
fully and economically and to manu
facture tea leaves into an acceptable
product, there still remains the task
of getting a place for the new product
on the market. In every line of trade
matters move along established chan
nels. Even though new lines of move
ment may be equally advantageous,
they are difficult of adoption, because
they are new. Any new product must
literally "break into" the market. In
the performance of this task American
tea is now engaged. The chief neces
sity Is that of getting the product be
fore the people and of creating a de
mand for it under its own name. By
any other name it not only smells as
sweet, but sells much better that is
to say, by an oriental name hut it
seems a sounder policy to sell the pro
duct under its own name and connect
Its quality with the name of American
tea. Although this creates some diffi
culties in the minds of the dealers,
last year's crop of nearly six tons has
already been largely sold, and advance
orders have been placed against the
output of the coming season. In order
to facilitate the introduction of the
product, Dr. Shepard conducts a con
slderable mail order business. Sum
mervllle tea grows well, manufactures
well, and promises to sell well. We
may therefore look hopefully for sue
cess in the experiment of the Ameri
can Tea Growing company at Tea, S.
C, which is now ripening for theh ar
vest, and In the governmental expert
ment in Texas. The annals of suc
cessful tea In this country have so
far been annals of "Pinehurst," as Dr.
Shepard's estate is called. Reports
from the new gardens indicate that
they may soon be making similar his
tories of their own. From "Tea Cul
ture in the United States," by Rod
ney H. True, in the American Monthly
Review of Reviews for September.
Cooking Vegetables
Have them fresh as possible.
Look them over and wash well, cut
ting out all decayed or unripe parts.
Lay them when peeled in cold
water for some time before using.
Always let the water boil before
putting them in, and continue to boil
until done. Turnips should be peeled
and boiled from forty minutes to an
hour.
Beets Boil from one to two hours,
then put in cold water and slip the
skin off.
Spinach Boil twenty minutes.
Parsnips Boil from twenty to thirty
minutes.
Onions Best boiled in two or three
waters, adding milk the last time.
String beans should be boiled one
and one-half hours.
Shell beans should be boiled an
hour.
Green Corn Boil from twenty to
thirty minutes.
Green Peas Boil twenty minutes;
should be boiled in as little water as
possible.
Asparagus Same as peas; serve on
toast with cream gravy.
Cabbage should be boiled from one
to two hours in plenty of water; salt
while boiling.
Hints for Stout Women
Don't wear wide belts.
Don't wear a tight-fitting coat.
Don't wear a sleeve that is full be
low the elbows.
Don't use frills of any kind on a
gown if you are stout. Use flat trim
mings. Don't wear bow ties. Wear some
thing small and narrow if a tie is re
quired. Don't wear fluffy things about the
neck. Let the neck finishing be as
flat as possible.
The s'out woman who dresses to
her figure rather than to fashionable
models is always more charmingly
srowned than she who wears what is
fashionable in itself rather than what
is suitable.
Don'ts for Girls and Boys
Don't lie.
Don't be idle.
Don't be rude.
Don't be untidy.
Don't practice deception.
Don't be jealous.
Don't be vain.
Don't lack pride.
Don't be devoid of ambition.
Don't be stubborn.
Don't try to "show off."
Spontaneous Cure of Cancer
The fact has come to light within
the last few years that an enormous
proportion of mankind suffer for a
short time from tuberculosis without
knowing It, and get well. Post-mortem
study of the lungs of people who
have died from other causes prove the
fact indisputably. For this and other
reasons the medical profession are
