to thecau.se of our misery and has
put us wise to the cure.
Tobacco, alcohol, spices and
tight-lacing are the diabolical in-
ventions of the evil one which
have caused the infelicity of the
unfortunate seven o^t of eight.
And the remedy is the simple life,
as illustrated and illuminated and
exemplified by “Doc” Mitchell’s
purity home in the sagebrush sec
