Broken Hearts Mended.
Broken hearts are now being
mended. Not the hearts shat
tered by unfortunate romances,
but the valvular organs pierced
by knives. Time mends the first
kind, but only the skilful sur
geon, Zeldler, can be depended
on to operate successfully on the
knife-torn heart.
Dr. Zeldler has a little hospital
at Obuchow in Russia. Thirty
one persons brought to the hos
pital with hearts pierced and
slashed by knife wounds have
successfully had their organs re
paired and have recovered en
tirely, to all appearances, from
their remarkable experiences.
One patient has lived seven
years and shows no signs of hav
ing been affected by the heart
wound and subsequent sewing
up. The patients were all put
under the influence of ether very
soon after the injury, part of
the chest wall was removed, the
heart lifted from its bed, and the
stitches quickly introduced be
tween pulsations. The oony
chest wall over the heart was
not put back into place, that or
gan be.ng left protected onlv by
skin and muscle. This was done
to give the heart room to expand
and to prevent adhesions from
embarrassing the heart's action.

of an African hunting expedi

used it as a decoy for tigers and

it is usual to tether a lamb to a

Before leaving England the ex

bleating lambs, and, says a re

UNUSUAL STATEMENT
Great Business Lrfsses Due to
Neglect
W. WITHERS MILLER
President of the Polk-Miller Drug
Company, Richmond, Va., is authority ,
for the following extraordinary state
ment: "I estimate that the business men of
this country could increase their effi
ciency fully ten per cent by taking an
occasional laxative and not neglecting
the bowels as most of them do."
He also said that if the Department
of Commerce in Washington would
present each business man in the coun
try with a box of Rexall Orderlies, it
would be of great benefit to the na
tional welfare. Rexall Orderlies are
prompt in action, pleasant to take and
never gripe, can be used by men, wom
en or children, and are just the thing
for toning up sluggish livers.
We have the exclusive selling rights for
this great laxative. Trial size, 10 cents.

Nine Negroes Killed.
A race war in Early county,
Ga., and across the Chattahoo
che river, in Alabama, has re
cently resulted in the killing of
nine negroes, the wounding of
several whites and the burning
of four negro lodge buildings.
The trouble grew out of the
murder of J. Villipigue, a white
plantation overseer, by negroes
grandison Goolsby and his sons,
Mike and Ulysses. The killing
of the white man is said to have
been caused by a beating which
he gave to one of the young
Goolsbys.
Immediately mobs and posses
started in pursuit of the slayers
and are said to have killed nine
negroes in the conflict which
followed. In retaliation the
blacks wounded a number of
white men.
Reports that a negro secret or
ganization had delegated Gools
bys and his sons to kill Villipigue
caused the burning of four ne
gro lodges. The elder Goolsby
was known as one of the leading
spirits in negro Ma-on and ne
gro Odd Fellow's lodge in that
section and also as a member of
several negro organizations.

Typhus and Influenza.
ln Mexico there are 250,000
cases of tyhus fever, while in the
United States more than a mill
ion people are now suffering
from influenza. The death rate
from typhus is abnormally high,
while that from influenza is rap
idly approaching the figures set
by "the grip" which swept the
councry 20 years ago., Both re
sults from insanitary conditions,
both being germ diseases.
In Mexico climatic conditions,
utter failure to give attention to
sanitary matters, and the rava
ges of war largely account for
the prevalence ot typhus fever.
In the United States the open
winter, exposing decaying vege
tables and animal matter, may
be the principal contributing
cause of influenza. Mexico is
without physicians or other med
ical assistance, Carranza having
banished the Red Cross. In the
United States doctors are plenti
ful and are able to afford relief
if summoned in time But be
yond all these the people them
selves must giv.e attention to
cleanliness about homes and
premises, and take such other
Bowels are Basis
of Child Health
The careful mother, who watches
sely the physical peculiarities of her
.ldren, will soon discover that the
jst important thins in connection with
child's constant good health is to keep
a bowels regularly open. Sluggish
wels will be followed by loss of appe
te, restlessness during sleep, lrrita
.aty and a dozen and one similar evi
lences of physical disorder.
At the first sign of such d'sorflpr sivo
:ne child a teaspoonful of Dr. C iwell's
3"rup Pepsin at ninht on ret..ni,r and
repeat the dose the following night if
necessary more than that will scarcely
be needed. You will find that the child
will recover Its accustomed good spirits
at once and will eat and sleep normally.
This remedy is a vast improvement
over salts, cathartics, laxative waters
and similar things, which are altogether
measures as will surpress dis
ease germs, if the public health
is to be conserved.
The one great animating prin
ciple of medicine and of sanita
tion today is the prevention of
disease, not the cure of it, For
nearly a generation in this coun
try public schools and newspa
pers have been educating the
people along health lines, and if
what they have been told is put
into effect by them influenza and
kindred diseases can be stamped
out on their first appearance.
Upon the people rests the primal
responsibility of being well and
staying well.

Paper Made of Grass.
As a means of conserving the
forests in this country, the De
partment of Agriculture is ex
experimenting with wire grass
as a source of supply for pulp
for making paper instead of wood
pulp. Wire grass, as it is com
monly known in the West, grows
on the Pacific slope and in West
ern Mexico. Ir forms a dense
mat of roots and yields in fertile '
soils sometimes as high as three
tons of grass. It is fibrous and
tough and can be reduced by the
soda process. The use of the
"nog," by which wood is re-
duced to pulp, is entirely done
avvay with.
The paper manufactured from
the stock has proven as satis-
factory, in physical tests, as a
first grade, machine-finished
printing paper. It has, more
over, a very satisfactory appear
ance and feeling. For bleaching
however, the experiments
showed that more bleaching
powder was required than with
poplar stock.
It has been estimated that the
growth of wood in the United
States is being removed at the
rate of 36 cubic ' feet per acre
each year, while the natural in-
crease is at the rate of 12 cubic
