In comparing the yokes and burdens of others with our own we have good reason to exclaim, "Lord, I thank thee for the things I miss."

With some the spirit is willing, with others it is all flesh.

Those who recognize that "heaven is within" may know the truth.

Nature furnishes unlimited powers, while man in discovering them is able to use them.

Freedom from fear makes one happy and of good cheer.

All men are born alike, still conception and gestation are brot to bear upon the daily walks of life to a degree of sharp demarcations among men.

In death, too, all men are alike, still who knows of the ways in the hereafter?

Hints

The rule for September is, "More fruits and less vegetables."

Perishable fruits all around us serve as a reminder that they are to be used freely, but with consideration.

The juice of fresh grapes proves a tonic and an eliminator. It should be used from five to nine times a day according to the effect desired. Making a light meal on grapes will repay us for our indulgence. Good wholesome bread once a day will suffice to supply the necessary vitamin to the system while the organs undergo a thoro flushing.

The grape cure in high summer or early autumn is as imperative as the milk cure in spring.

In all blood and skin disorders the grape cure also proves efficacious, providing alkaline and sulphur baths are indulged in daily. for three weeks.

In all forms of membraneous, glandular, kidney, rheumatic, neurotic, catarrhal and nerve troubles in general, the white grape is the most potential. Used with meals grapes are less effective. It is best to go

on a cure.

The blue, red and raisin grapes are valuable in aeanemic troubles and hardening of arteries. The juice should be strained thru a layer of charcoal and the glass or jar set into a bowl of hot water for five minutes. A wine glass full sipped every hour and a half constitutes a cure. After every two glasses, or every three hours, take a three-grain tablet of charcoal. Do not eat anything unless hungry enough to nibble at twice toasted bread, thoroly crusted and free from all moisture, consequently absolutely crisp. The bread may be substituted by thoroly dried cereals like rolled wheat, oats or corn.

Early cold plunges still hold good, but be sure to have a brisk run, and with hands, not towels, thoroly dry all of the body.

The care of the body is very essential at this time when from the end of summer we enter autumn, a time of crystallization.

Office employes should seek opportunities in rural districts for at least a month and return home with praise and thanksgiving.

Beware of damp underwear or wet clothes. Dry them thoroly near a fire before putting them on. Much depends upon the condition of our clothes. As to hose, they should be changed twice a day in most cases, while a foot bath before slipping them on is advisable.

Add to a bath tub full of hot water one cup full of salsoda and one tablespoonful of powdered sulphur. Such a bath will charge. the pores and quicken the circulation. It is to be a hot bath, followed by a vigorous rub. In connection with a fruit or a grape cure the results are satisfactory even to the skeptical.

Corn roasts are in order, but be sure you take your time in masticating each kernel. Roasted corn may be well done, but when corn is to be steamed then three minutes will suffice. It is better still to eat the tender corn unfired. In connection with half-andhalf or goat's milk a corn cure will prove of value to sufferers from diverse liver troubles.

When a dish begins to taste about right it is time to quit eating.

Potato roasts at eventide, out in the open, the field, the canyon, the river bank or the seashore, will prove a means unto inspiration and respiration.

What a blessed thot to gather where mountains are the walls and the heavenly canopy the roof above our head, and where for a companion the fruits of the field, fired upon an improvised altar, erected by purim, kosher and ashem hands directed by amesha spyentas, constitute the links of a royal chain that binds us unto God.

Outdoor sports with hayfork and spade in hand will be found much more scientific than baseball or tennis. We are always to yield to the need of the hour.

After the fruits have been all gathered from the trees, the latter should be given a scrub and a bath with mild disinfectants, while the roots will be thankful if a pint of epsom salt is placed near the trunk. Certain temperaments should be given similar treatment when indulging in much fruit.
