jar, you could take it easily. Yes, you must take it, you can put it right
in your window, where it will get the sunshine all winter, and just think
how you will enjoy it.”
“And now, let me tell you,” said this frail looking woman, “if any
thing should happen to me, I want Violet to have all my flowers —she loves
flowers so. They will grow beautifully for her —the dear child has the magic
touch —love.”
“Isn’t she just wonderful, the little woman?” said Jean, as we walked
home, “and she makes you feel that you are the one conferring the favor,
while she is lavishing her treasures upon you. That is what I call true
charity,— why, she is a real missionary! To meet with such acquaintances
is truly to walk along the sunlit paths of life, for
“A gleam in an unselfish soul
Shows how life’s elemental blaze
Goes wandering through the whole.”

POPULAR SCIENCE.
This is the day of popular educa
tion on the subject of sanitation.
The best method of combating dis
ease is to prevent it.
Hence the necessity for the people
to be informed as to the nature and
causes of prevalent diseases.
Great progress has been made along
this line by informing the people.
Typhoid, Dysentary, Malaria, Yel
low Fever and Tuberculosis are giv
ing way before popular education on
sanitary methods.
But education is necessary also as
to coughs, colds, croup, catarrh and
pneumonia.
All of these are diseases due to in
fection of the air passages.
The germs are taken in with the
air as it enters the nasal passages or
by the mouth.
They attack the delicate mucous
membrane which forms the lining of
these passages.
Nature resists the attack by a rush
of blood to the affected parts.
This is inflammation or congestion.
We call it soreness and think it is evi
dence of disease.
In reality it is nature battling to
destroy the germs and restore health.
The blood is doing the fighting for
us.
Good blood becomes bad blood in
the struggle.
It has to be renewed constantly.
This is done with plenty of good
fresh air in the lungs and good diges
tion of wholesome food by the stom
ach.
These processes mean the renewing
of the old blood by oxidation in 'the
lungs and the addition of fresh blood
by the stomach.
Hence plenty of fresh air and good
food is important.
In the struggle, at the point of in
flammation, the debris of the battle
is thrown off in the phlegm.
This phlegm is full of disease
germs.
It should be removed from the air
passages and destroyed.
As long as it remains it coats the
air passages and prevents the life re
newing oxygen of the air from fully
reaching the blood in the lungs.
Hence the blood is not properly oxi
dized, remains filled with impurities
and this weakens the struggle for
health and encourages the spread of
the disease.
In combating croup, coughs, colds,
pneumonia and catarrh the following
directions should be followed:
Don’t medicate through the stom
ach if it can be avoided; you may up
set digestion if you do.
Don’t fail to give the patient plenty
of fresh, pure air. You can’t have
pure blood without pure air.
Don’t fail to remove the phlegm so
that air can reach all parts of the
lungs.
Apply stimulating antiseptics and
healing vapors to the inner linings of
the air passages, to attract fresh
blood to the parts, stimulate the nor
mal flow of secretion, loosen the ob
structing and disease ladened phlegm,
encourage its ejection, cleanse the
parts and induce healing of the wound
ed surfaces.
This process is assisted if the skin
of throat and chest is also stimulated.
The above is a description of the
modern treatment for croup, coughs,
colds, catarrh and pneumonia as prac
tised in the use of Vick’s Croup and
Pneumonia Salve.
ffi ffi ffi !fi K
KSXISX
When directions are followed the
results are very satisfactory.
Breathing immediately becomes ea
sier; and croup is usually relieved in
fifteen minutes.
The proper use of the salve reduces
the fever attendant upon these dis
eases by removing the cause.
It is equally effective on external
inflammations or congestion.

Vick’s Croup and Pneumonia Salve.

ous of testing the Vick’s treatment.

Dear Home Circle:
Guess you all will be glad to have a
few lines from the “Dear Old South”
(Florida). We are having some beau
tiful weather. People coming from
our Northern and Western States, ad
mire the climate so much, and this
lively afternoon I am just wondering
what kind of a time the Household
friends will have Christmas. I enjoy
reading, so much our Bachelor Girl’s
letters, they are so interesting.”
Come again, “Bachelor Girl.” Dr.
Broughton’s sermons are just fine. I
never tire reading them. I only trust
the “Tramp” will come back and
give us his story about “Husband and
Wife.” His flirting in the street was
good. I agree with him in every sense
of the word.”

CUTTING DOWN THE COST OF
PIANOS.
Have you ever stopped to ask your
self the question why oranges which
sell for five cents apiece cost only
forty cents a dozen? Or why apples
sell so much cheaper by the bushel
than by the nickel’s worth?
It is the same way with pianos and
everything else you buy. If you were
to purchase one hundred pianos (eight
car loads) you would expect to get a
much lower price than if you purchas
ed only one. That is why The
Golden Age Piano Club, composed of
one hundred piano buyers, who club
their orders into one big order, is able
to save its members at least one dol
lar out of three and still provide pian
os of much better quality.
You are cordially invited to write
for your copy of the Club’s beautifully
illustrated catalogue which fully ex
plains every feature of this unusual
piano opportunity and pictures and
describes each of the five different
styles of pianos offered. Address Lud
den & Bates, Golden Age Piano Club,
Dept., Atlanta, Ga.

Up and Down? Go To Your Doctor
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is a tonic. It does not stimulate. It does not
make you feel better one day, then as bad as ever the next. There
is not a drop of alcohol in it. You have the steady, even gain
that comes from a strong tonic. Ask your doctor all about this.
Trust him fully, and always do as he says. LoSem e Ma°*
