PINE TREE BREAD.
KAMSCHATKANS USE THE INNER
BARK OF PINE TREES.
Macerate It in Water and Bake Good,
Wholesome Bread—The Pine
Keeps the Blood Pure and
The Body Healthy.
In Kamschatka the people live In
earth covered pits Mr Kennan com-
pares the sound of their language to
that of water running out. of a narrow-
mouth jug. Their biead is made from
the Inner bark of the Pine Tree, mace-
rated in water and baked without flour.
They are a hardy raco, the Pine keep-
ing the blood pure and the various or-
gans of the body in a healthy condi-
tion Consumption is unknown among
them.
A noted specialist In throat and lung
trouble, who established a camp for
consumptives In the Pino Woods of
Maine, and whose remarkable cures
there have attracted great attention
from the medical world, says that one-
half ounce of the Pure Virgin Oil of
Pine, mixed with two ounces of Gly-
cerine and one-half pint of good Whis-
ky and used In teaspoonful doses, will
heal and strengthen tho lungs, break
up a cold in tweet-- four hours, and
cure any cough that Is curable. Tho
Ingredients can be secured from any
i prescription druggist, at Binall cost.
Inquiry at tln> prescription depart-
ment of a leading local druggist elicit-
ed the Information that the Pure Vir-
gin Oil of Pine is put up only In half-
ounce vials for dispensing. Each vial
is securely sealed In a round wooden
ease, with engraved wrapper, showing
(ho name Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure)
guaranteed under the Food and Drug
act, Juno 30, 1900. Prepared only by
the Leach Chemical Co., Cincinnati, O.
I—plainly printed thereon. There aro
many rank Imitations of Virgin Oil
of Pine (Pure), which are being put
out under various names, such as Con-
centrated Oil of Pine, Pine Balsam,
etc. Never accept these as a substi-
tute for the Pure Virgin Oil of Pine, as
they will invariably produce nausea
and never effect the desired results.
ONE WAY OUT OF DIFFICULTY.
Match Twins with Twine. Was the
Fond Mother's Idea.
A little woman entered a drug store
and asked the proprietor if he had "an-
| other picture."
"What kind of a picture do you
mean?" the druggist asked.
"One like this," said the woman,
; holding up aa attractive advertising
print.
"I may have rmo or two of them
left," the proprietor said, "but 1
haven't many of them."
Tho woman said she only wanted
one, and her tone indicated that she
was anxious for that one. Sho ex-
plain* il that the one she had with her
tiad been given to one of hr-r children.
Another child, she staled, was sick,
and was crying for a picture such as
his brother had.
"That's a bad way to bring up your
children," ventured a woman customer
, In tho store. "Do you try to give a
child everything he cries for Jutt be-
1 cause his brother Is more fortuuate?"
"Mut," said the mother of the chil-
dren, "you don't know. The children
j are twins and what one has tbo other
wants."
DREADED TO EAT.
A Quaker Couple's Experience.
How many persons dread to eat theft
; meals, although actually hungry near
! ly all tho time!
Naturo never Intended this should
bo so, for wo are given a thing called
appetite that should guido lis as to
what tho system needs at any tlm«
■ and can digest.
But wo get in a hurry, swallow out
food very much ns we shovel coal Into
tho furnace, and our senso of nppetlts
becomes unnatural and perverted.
Then wo eat the wrong kind of food
or eat too much, and thero you are—
indigestion and its accompanying
miseries,
A 1'hila. lady said, the other day:
"My husband and I hnvo been sick
and nervous for 15 or 20 years from
drinking coffee -feverish, indigestion,
totally unfit, a good part of tho time,
for work or pleasure. \\'o actually
dreaded to eat our meals.
"We tried doctors and patent medi-
cines that counted up Into hundreds ol
dollars, with little If any benefit.
"Accidentljy, a small package o(
Postum came into my hands. I mad#
some according to directions, with sur-
prising results. Wo both liked it and
liavo not used anv coffee since.
"The dull feeling after meals has
left us and wo feel better every way
We aro so well satisfied with Postum
that wo recommend It to our friends
who have been made sick and nervous
and miserable by coffee." Name given
by Postuni Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Read tho little book, "The Road to
Wellvllle," la pkga. "There's a He*>
Boa."
