(By Dr. David H. Reeder, La Porte, Indiana)
Diarrhoea: la this acute affile-]
tion nature is doing all it can to
right itself. It Is an effort on the
part of nature to rid the person af
riicted of offending material t
might otherwise be fatally danger-
ous. Hence to check the diarrhoea
suddenly means to take chances
with the patient's life or health.
The cause of diarrhoea is the ac-
cumulation of undigested and ob-
jectionable material in the stomach
that by its very quantity, hinders
the presence of sufficient digestive
fluid to prevent the material from
fermenting and generating and de-
veloping a poisonous substance that
would cause far more serious re
suits, were it not that nature en-
deavors to carry it off by diarrhoea
or vomiting.
Of course the thing to do is to aid
nature, which means to remove the
cause of the trouble by sensible
ttfeans. A plentiful and thorough
' "iema of water warmed to about 95
degrees, is the first thing to be giv-
en, thus to cleanse the colon and
prepare it for the extra work it must
do. After the enema has had its
entire effedt, give a large dose of
rastor oil, gaged in size by the ca-
pacity of the patient, in years and
strength, to take it. That is to say,
give to a child what would be gen-
erous dose for a child and to a
grown person what would be a gen-
erous dose for him. This treatment
is radical and will always prove ef-
fective If there are no complications,
which, generally there are not. It
is usually and simply a case of over-
eating, or the eating of stuff that is
unfit for the human stomach—green
apples and Buch, for instance, in a
boy. Some sort of a painkiller or
other diarrhoea patent medicine,
might give temporary relief and
sound sleep, but the causes not hav-
ing been removed, the danger will
increase every hour.
After the enema rfnd castor oil
have had the full effect, give the pa-
tient blackberry cordial — which
should always be kept in homes
where there are children, or others
liable to diarrhoea or stomach-ache,
from the cause suggested. This
cordial should be made at home,
and it is a simple though excel1
remedy, easily prepared as follows:
Take of common blackberries,
thoroughly ripe, enough to extract
from them a quart of juice,—more
may be prepared in the same pro-
portions as to the other ingredients
—cover the berries with water in
the vessel in which they are to be
prepared; heat slowly until the ber-
ries have opened; place the heated
-—but not cocked—berries in a
close bag and express the juice
thoroughly. To every quart of juice,
after placing H in a porcelain lined
cooking vessel, add a close cloth bag
containing half an ounce each of
cinnamon alspice and ginger also
a small quantity of cloves and mare.
Heat this slowly in the covered ves-
sel for two hours add two and a
half pounds of granulated sugar.
After the sugar has thoroughly dis-
solved—in which it should be assist
ed be stirring store the preparation
in perfectly clean, small bottles—
half pints are a good size.

Dear Doctor: —
i am a farmer's wife. 4^ years old.
Have had kidney trouble 10 years.
Sometimes not bad, but just now am
suffering baring pains and soreness
in small of back, and darting and
itching pain in left breast, mostly
at night. Gae in stomach after
meals, and notice my nostrils and
lips burn. Urine Is scant and light
colored; bowels irregular; appetite
good. Sweets, tea and coffee Irrl
tate trouble. Tongue coated white
and bad taste in mouth; restless
sleep. Please prescribe and tell
cause of trouble.
MRS. J. M. R.
The symptoms indicate rheumatic
difficulties more than kidney trouble
An analysis of the urine should be
made, however. I would suggest a
diet of two pieces of toast or rusk
3 times dally, with one pint of fresh,
sweet butter-milk every two hours
during the day. Continue this from
to 10 days. Some patients And
one-half pint of the butter milk suf
ficlent. You will not lose strength
on this diet, but may lose a little
weight. You will feel fine after-
wards and kidneys will be in fine
shape. Drink lots of water; chew-
toast well.

Dear Doctor:—•
Bloated all of the time all over
my stomach especially. Don't seem
to have stomach trouble; sometimes |
I have the cramps, have a weak fenl-1
ing in my stomach most of the time.
Health has been poor for two years,
but bloating present only aboul six
months. Am thirty years old.
MISS I . S.
Would suggest that you use ch |
coal dyspepsia tablets These will
aid in cleansing the system, pre- (
vent the bloating and help in over
coining the gas. If you have been
in the habit of eating cream you
should avoid it in the future. Using
skimmed milk instead on all foods
on which you have previously taken
cream. You should practice thor-
oughly masticating the food you {
eat, and drink absolutely nothing t
while eating. About one hour after :
eating you can drink all the water
you want. If you do not want any
water, force yourself to drink from j
one to four quarts daily. You will |
note results after a few weeks and
be gratified with them.

LIVE STOCK LSTTER.
Kansas City Stock Yards, July 29,
1912.—The bear campaign which
buyers had been prosecuting with
vigor and success for ten days began
to totter the middle of last week,
and Its sandy foundation allowed It
to fall with a crash by the end of
the week. Moderate supplies of cat-
tle at all the markets prove'd too
much for it. Prime cattle had re-
covered all their loss by the end of
the week, and other classes, Includ-
! Ing pasture cattle, were on the road
to recovery. Stockers and feeders
did not regain ayn of their loss last
j week, but most of it has been put
I back today, and dealers say last
week saw the low spot on them,
particularly on decent feeders weigh-
ing 900 pounds and upwards. The
supply today is 12,000 cattle here
and considerable hope in the atmos-
phere respecting future prices. Mis-
souri cattle brought $9.75 today, 10
cents more than anything has
brought this year. Top in Chicago
today is $9.75 also. Saline county
came to the front on grass catt,le
today with a drove at $8.30, 1430
pound weight. Others from that sec-
tion brought $8.00, and 1100 pound
plain steers sold ot $6.50. Chase
county sent in some grassers that
brought $8.90, and other lighter
ones at $7.50. Morris county had
some $8.70 steers here today, but
the feature of the market was the
sale of some 1222 pound steers from
Green wood county, brought up from
Texas this spring at $7.80, Green,
wood county did not extend herself
otherwise today, stopping at $8.20
for grassers. Supply of quarantine
cattle today 130 cars, market steady
following an advance of 20 to 30
cents last week, sales at $4.25 to
$6.35 on steers, $3.75 to $5.50 for
cows and heifers. Stockers range
from $4,00 to $6.40 feeders 06.00 to
$7.00. Hogs totaled 7500 head here
today, market 10 lower than the
close of last week, but still half a
dollar above a week ago, top $8.05
bulk $7.80 to $8.00. W. H. Tower,
Edison Nebraska, furnished the fea-
ture today, with 10 cars of hogs of
his own raising, 587 head of which
brought $7.90, 60 head $7.85, and
40 pigs $6.85 the big drove weigh-
ing 212 pounds. Sheep and lambs
are 25 to 40 cents higher than the
low time recently best spring lambs
today $7.35, Arizona springs $7.25.
Twelve hundred Utah feeding lambs
49 pounds, sold at $5.00 last Thurs-
day, good feeders worth up to
$5.50, wethers $4.50 top ewes
$4.25.

What the Public Thinks
of Good Store Lighting
The Editor of the St. Peter (Minnesota) Press recently
wrote an editorial about lighting. He scored some
good points. Here are a few of them.
"A poorly kept and poorly lighted business street is
just as repulsive to customers as an old half tumbled
down structure used for a store.
"Everybody likes things tidy and inviting, and the ap-
pearance of negligence and disorder appeals no
more to him at a store than it does at his own home.
"This preference for comfort and neatness can be ob-
served in every trading center. Customers out shop-
ping are a constant object les;on in this direction.
"While a dark, uninviting concern is hardly ever not-
iced and hardly ever entered, a well lighted, well kept
and neatly arranged store never fails to attract atten-
tion and most always draws patronage."
