The Woods Vanished The people of the country were mostly farmers, and of these, nearly all were dairymen. The few manu- facturers were on a small scale, except perhaps the making of oars, which were shipped all over the world from the heart of the pri- meval forests densely wooding the vast levels of the region. The port- able steam saw mills dropped down on the borders of the woods have long since eaten their way through and through them, and de- voured every stick of timber in most places, and drunk up the water courses that the woods once kept full: but at that time, half the land was in the shadow of those mighty poplars and hickories, elms and chestnuts, ashes and hemlocks; and the meadows that pastured the herds of red cattle were dotted with stumps as thick as harvest stubble. Now there are not even stumps, the woods are gone, and the water courses are torrents in spring and beds of dry clay in summer. The meadows themselves have vanished, for it has been found that the strong, yellow soil will produce more in grain than in mills. -Front "Years of My Youth," by William Dean I/tie-elle, Harper anal Broth- er's. 15'(si FEOW CAN 1?

'laybe when some of these new miracle drugs for arthritis are more commonly used, relief will be in sight for thousands of sufferers. I doubt if there is any disease that causes so Hutch misery over so long a period of time as arthritis and rheumatism, and for which there is often so little sympathy. And 1 speak from personal experi- ence, haying had my share of it some years ago. Even now, just a little twinge awakens that dread within me because I know it is just an indication that the trouble is still there, lurking like an evil monster, ready to spring if an op- portunity presents itself. One thing that everyone should remember in dealing with arthritis is that there are many different types. They can, however, be di- vided roughly into two distinct classes -the type that requires rest, and the type in which muscles grad- ually loosen up when they are used, Well, I ani afraid no druggist will ever get rich from our custom.
