'Under cinnamon In the preventive treatment a bush beside the trail.". of German measles and urges that it be tried extensively in the endeavor to prevent epidemics of the ordinary variety of measles, which is more se- vere and fatal then German enetteles. He writes: "Cinnamon is a drug whose therea- eputic virtues are not sufficiently re- cognized. The eseence of cinnamon in 25 -drop doses is one of the most et- tective remedies in cases of acute coryza (Cold in the head). It is cer- tainly much niore efficacious as well As more pleasant than the popular ammoniated tincture of quinine. Some years ago an article was pub- lished in The Journal strongly advo- cating cinnamon as a preventive of measles. The writer stated that it was his practice, when he met with a case of measles, to prescribe a course of cinnamon for any unprotected children 1 nate family. He stated that M. most cases the. child who was treated eith- er failed to contract the disease or took it in a very mild form. 1 myself have had the same experience, but I was able to try the experiment only in a few cases, ae I gave up general praetice. • "Recently T have had an opportun- ity at trying a course of einnamon as a prophylactic in German measles.

Look- ing over his shoulder, Sam saw him in talk vvitit Sellers. He had. an impres- sion that both turned their heads as he looked around. . • 'When the boy evertook him, he de- manded to know what they had been talking about, -"I say to Sellers better bring some pain -killer out of the store," the boy answered readily. "Sellers say all right." Reaching the flat country above at the end of the long pull, they halbid for the briefest possible time to eat and let the horses feed. As they pre- pared to mount again, Sam said: "Funny Sollars hasn't overtaken us." "Guess can't catch his horse," -seid St. Paul. They rode forward through the as- pen woods, and across the open spac- es. Haviag crossed the widest of these that goes by the name of Little Prai- rie, Sam began to keep watch ahead for evidences *of the camp. Every few minutes be asked St. Paul where it was.. "Only a little way now," was the toy% invariable reply, "You sail twenty miles from the river." "Maybe. I mak' little Mistake" After an honr of this, Sam turned sullen. "If it's a trick it won't do any- body 'any good," he said. "I shall ride back withoet dismountine." ett. Paul merely looked blend. Finally Sam looked at the Sun.

"Ogee side tats muskeg, then piney ridge and little small prairie. -It is there." This -time St. Paul proved to be tell- ing the truth, As they lamed out on the meadow Sam saw the wagon standing under a tree on the other side. Coining deem- he made out a re- cumbent figure under a willow bush. The other boy and the other horse were not visible. It was elusq'oosis. The bush pro- tected him from the sun. With the first glimpse Sam had of his face, re- morse attacked him for his suspicions. In truth the old man was far gone. His Skin had taken on a waxy, yellow consietency. He looked as serene and unearthly as if he had already passed away, His eyes were closed. Sam epoke his name in alarm. (To be continued.).
