THE SiClli OF THE YOUNG MOTHER AND
THE FAT HOG.
There' a State Board ol i loaltli in Indiana and
tin* *< eivtary V name is -I. W. Ilurty. 11 1> writes an
artl<>r Pearson's Magazine under the above head
ingand declares it V. not i faldcj Imt straight goods.
Here's the Hurt;’ story:
Ono tin 1 ., 1 a Hit!, mother, wlm wns nnlv 25 >pnr* old, began tn fppl
tlrtd ail ihp time. 11. i npiirlllc lad fallol b< ■ for weeks before the
fired feeling ratm. Hoi ;hr* <• Hoic unis, nitre a Joy l n her life, now be-
Cine a burden lo her. It was "mamma," "mamma," all day long. She
never had noth i d tic e . |.p< ; j 1 until the fired feelJnK came. The little
mother also had red spots on her cheeks and a alight dry cough.
Om day. when dragg ng herself around, forcing her weary body to
work, she fell a Hluirp but - light pain In her chesl, her head grew dlzß.v,
and suddenly her imnilh ' ,l; il with blood The hemorrhage wa* not
severe, bul II left her very weak The doctor she had consulted for he,
cough and tired feeling had -aid: "You are all rn n down; you need a
tonic." For a fee he prescribed bitters made ol alcohol, water and gen
tian.
Tills gave her false strength for a while, for It checked out her
little reserve When the hemorrhage occur rid she nnd all her neighbors
knew she had consumption, and (lie doctor should have known it and
told her months before.
Now she wrote to the state board of health and said: “I am fold
that consumption In Us early stages can he cured by outdoor life, con
tinued rest and plenty of plain, good food. I do not want to die. 1 wan*
to live nnd raise rov children to make them good citizens. Where can
I go to gel well?"
The reply was "The great Christian state of Indiana has not yet
risen to the mighty economy of saving lives of llllle mothers trom con
sumption. At present, ihe only place where you can go Is a grave.
However, the state will car< for your children in an orphans’ asylum
after you are dead, and then In a few years a spclal officer will find a
home for them Hut save your Ilfs never.”
"That 1s a cranky Idea,” for a member on the floor of the sixty-fifth
assembly said so besides, said lie. “It Isn’t business; the slate can’t as
ford It." So the llttl, mother died of the preventable and curable dls
ease, the home wa.- broken up, mid the children were taken to the or
phans’ asylum.
A big fat hog one morning found he hud a pat n ln Ills belly. He squeal
ed loudly, and ihe tanner came out of bis house to see what was the
matter "lies got the hog cholera," said the hired man. So the
farmer telegraphed to Pecretnr.v Wilson, of the United States agricul
tural department (who said ihe other day he had 3.00 n experts In ani
mal and plant diseases), and the reply was: "Cert, I’ll send you a man
right away "
Sure enough, the man came He said he was a n. V. S . and ho
was. too He had a gov. rnment syringe end a bottle of government
medicine |p his handbag, and be went for the hog It got well. Il wasn't
cranky for th- gov. rnment to do this, and It could afford the expense,
for the h<ig could be turned Into ham, sausage, lard and bacon
Anybody , even i fool, can see m would he cranky for the state to
gave the life of a tilth- mother and II could not afford It, either.
Moral: Be u hog and be worth saving
29 FOREIGN COUNTRIES HAVE PARCELS POST
PRIVILEGES IN THE U. S.
TN hy should the Tinted States charge its own
citizens a higher postage rate than it does the resi
dents of 29 foreign countries. Senator Jonathan
Bourne, Jr., dots not believe in such a practice and
on June 23 introduced a lull in the Senate to prevent
it for the future. His bill provides:
That from and after the passage of this act no
higher postage rate shall he charged for the trans
mission of mail entirely within the United States or
its possessions than is charged for transmission of
mail partly within and partly without the United
States or its possesions. The Postmaster General is
hereby authorized and required to establish and en
force rules and regulations which will give the peo
ple of the United States rights and privileges in the
use of United States mails as liberal as the rights
and privileges the United States accords to the peo
ple of the most-favored nation.
The facts are these: Within the United States
the rate of postage on fourth-class matter is It* cents
a pound, with a limit of 4 pounds. The United
States is party to a treaty under which residents of
29 foreign countries may send fourth-class matter
through the United States mails at 12 cents a pound,
with a limit of 11 pounds. In other words, a man
may scud an 11-pound package from San Francisco
to Rome. Italy, at 12 cents a pound, but if lit* wish 's
to send the same articles to New York he must di
vide them into packages of not to exceed -1 pounds
each and pay 16 cents a pound. A Japanese residing
in N< w York can send an 11-pound package to his
friend in Tokyo at 12 cents, hut an Vmoriean in Now
A <*T, can send only a 4-pound package from New
York to Washington and must pay 16 cents a pound.

Consumptives Helped by
Tuberculosis Medicine
It Is foily to believe that Consumption
differ* from every other disease In not
requiring the use of any specific medi
cine for ll.s cure. The trouble ha* been
that none whs known until the many
cures effected by Eckman’s Alterative
began to be realized. Now, for ten years,
an enormous maga of voluntary and
thankful testimonials from persons who
consider that they owe their lives to
this remedy have been accumulating.
Surely plenty of time t.o demonstrate its
lasting value. You can write to any of
them. Here Is one:
5323 Girard Ave., Philadelphia, Pa.
•Gentlemen: In the winter of 1903 I
had an attack of Grippe, followed by
Pneumonia, and later by Consumption I
grew steadily worse. in the winter of
1904 I had cought. night sweats, fever
and raised quantities of awful looking
stuff and later I had many hemorrhages;
at. one time, three In three successive
days. Milk and eggs became so dls
tasteful I could keep nothing down.
Three phslcians treated me. I w«y or
dered to the mountains, hut did not go.
Eckinan’s Alterative was recommended
by a friend. After taking a small quan
tity I had the first quiet night'* sleep
for week*. My improvement was mark
ed from the first. I gained strength
and weight and appetite I never had
another hemorrhage and my cough grad
ually lessened until entirely gone. I am
perfectly well Every tiling 1 say here
