BETTER METHODS NEEDS
If one believes the reports is
sued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, he would
think our farmers are rolling in
wealth, and that this wealth is in
creasing at the rate of eight or
ten billion dollars a year.
It is true, that a vast sum of
money passes into the hands of
the farmer every year, but it is
just as true that the greater por
tion of it passes out again, so at
the end of the year the average
tiller of the soil is not much, if
any, better off than at the begin
ing. There are a few who are
making money, and a little careful
observation will show that they
are the ones who farm with their
heads as well as their hands. They
plan their work, and then work
their plan. The ones who do lit
tle thinking and little planing, and
merely confines his efforts to a
single system of crops, fails to
recognize many chances for better
things.
Opportunities come to every
one, whether on the farm or some
place else. To the farmer there is
an ever-present opportunity for
success, by increasing his yield,
improving the quality and reduc
ing the cost of production.
The farmer is not so prosperous
as the agricultural department
paints him; and yet there fs really
no reason why he should not be.
Woodrow Wilson, in a recent
speech, paid the South the follow
ing compliment: “No one who
knows the South can look foward
to her future without the most con
fident expectation of an extraordi
narydevelopment.The character of
her people, of her resources, and of
her climate assure a development
which will be one of the most not
able features of the growth of
America in the 20th century. The
past 30 years will be but an imper
fect indication of what the next
30 will bring forth.”
After the cruel war is over let
us remember only the good and
Kind things Theodore and William
once said about each other.
Its only a week from next
Tuesday till the fateful fifth of
November.

Serious Kidney Disease Treated
By an Old - Fashioned Doctor
S. B. HARTMAN, M. D.
In 1 SfiO I was practicing; medicine in
Millersville, Pennsylvania, a thriving
farming community. A prominent
citizen of that locality called at my
office one day in a very feeble condi
tion. So much so he had to be assist
ed in alighting from his wagon.
I found on questioning him that he
had been afflicted for about two years.
He had consulted various doctors,
among them a specialist from Philadel
phia. They pronounced his disease to
be Bright's disease of the kidneys. He
was gradually falling in strength, los
ing flesh rapidly, and altogether pre
sented a very, pitiable spectacle, the
remnant of a once strong and happy
man.
I had been treating a neighbor of
his successfully. This neighbor had
highly recommended me and thus it
was he had come to me.
He told me that the doctors had
practically given up his case as hope
less and he felt free to consult any
other physician. I hesitated to take
the case, as I felt sure I could not do
anything more than the other phy
sicians had done. I told him so, yet he
Insisted upon'my prescribing. I was a
graduate of the Jefferson Medical Col
|le(?« at Philadelphia, and as one of the
consulting physicians had been a pro
fessor in that college it seemed to me
quite unlikely that I would be able to
do any more than had been done, but I
prescribed what seemed to be the best
thing under the circumstances.
He went away and in a week he re
turned saying he was no better, that he
was still losing ground. He judged
that he had taken the same medicine
before. No doubt he had. Hut he
wished me to prescribe again. I did so.
This -went on for about two months,
the patient failing all the time, and I
was becoming thoroughly discouraged
with the case.
One day the patient said to me,
"Doctor, why don’t you give me the
medicine you gave my neighbor? We
all thought he would die, but your
medicine cured him. This was why I
came to you. Why not give me the
same medicine you gave him?"
"But," I said, "your neighbor did not
have kidney disease. It was a bowel
complaint that I prescribed for in his
case. I remember I gave him the
Neutralizing Mixture that I make a
great deal of use of in bowel dis
eases."
"Well, I want some of the same
medicine you gave him. It worked
wonders with him and I believe it
will with me."
"But," I said, "this is not a medi
cine for kidney disease.”
'Well, since you seem to be like the
rest of the doctors, you cannot help
me, why not try the medicine that
helped my neighbor?"
After some hesitation I concluded to
give him a bottle of it. In ten days
he returned. He at once began to be
rate me In no complimentary' words,
saying:
“You knew very well this medicine
would help me. You held it back
merely to get more fees for treating
me. From the first the medicine has
helped me and I have made rapid Im
provement. If I could have had tills
medicine a year ago I should have
been saved a great deal of expense
and loss of time."
I replied that I was glad the medi
cine had helped him. I was somewhat
confused by his brusque manner and
rough speech. I gave him another bot
tle of medicine. Did not see him again
for about three weeks. Once more he
called at my ofnro for another bottle
of medicine, which was his last calL
A month or so afterwards a neighbor
of his called and got a bottle of the
same medicine, saying that my patient
was practically a well man, attending
to his duties about his large farm.
I had given him the Neutralizing
Mixtpre which was a remedy that I
had used before only for bowel dis
eases. The same remedy that has since
been sold under the name of renma.
I could not quite understand how It
u as that Peruna should operate so
beneficially In such seemingly different
diseases. I had not yet grasped the
correct philosophy of disease. I did
not then clearly comprehend that
catarrh may affect the kidneys as well
as the bowels. Nothing of that sort
was taught In the books In thoso days
It took me years before I clearly com
prehended that catarrh was a disease
liable to attack any organ of the body.
Catarrh is a disease of the mucous
membranes. The mucous membranes
line every organ, duct and cavity In
the body. Thus It la catarrh may set
tle anywhere where there Is a mucous
membrane.
