In most instances the slumber is disturbed by frequent awakenings, with difficulty in returning to sleep, which is marked by distressful dreams and the so-called “night mare,” the countenance is usually sallow and bears evidence of more or less mental disturbance. Causes Too rich and too abundant diet, over indulgence in candies, pies, cakes, puddings and other sweet concoctions, the abuse of alcoholic liquors, tobac co, narcotics or sedatives, exposure to damp or foul atmospheres, seden- tory habits combined with insufficient exercise, irregular eating, especially of sweets, or any other cause which tend to disturb the normal action of the liver. Treatment Treatment must be especially of a character to produce as far as possible a normal, which means a healthy ac tion of the liver. The first step (which is important) is abstinence from food (under the advice of a physician) until the existing and well marked irritability of the stomach has ceased to be imperative and then, and only then, food but of only of the lightest and most easily digested kxnd must be taken, taking care that H is such as to agree with the patient s=fj affected, and must be used in the most moderate quantities. A very valuable addition in the cure of this disease is exercise, and should be such as to bring the liver directly under its influence, such as swinging the arms high above the head, bringing the hands down as near the floor as pos sible; also take a deep breath, filling the lungs as full as you can of air, then squat down with some force be fore expelling the breath; this acts by squeezing the liver, stimulating it to action; any bending exercises are good and should be persisted in, more particularly upon arising in the morn ing and on going to bed; if the exer cise is vigorous eno’.igh to induce per spiration it is so much the ?nore valu able; water drank as hot as you can comfortably take it, about one pint in quantity, should be drank soon after rising in the morning and on going to bed. Anotbe^ thing highly recommended and used largely in sanitariums as well as private prac tice, is the massaging of the liver and the region thereabouts, and has prov en to have been in many cases highly beneficial. Rest mus*; not be over looked, and sufficient sleep should be secured and the bedroom should be well ventilated. Mennal recreation should be indulged in and may take the form of occasional excursions when the season of the year and the weather permits, more particularly if such excursions should be to a point or points where the opportuni ty of out-door exercise can be taken advantage of and should if possible include those of horse back riding, boat rowing or climbing hills or mountains. To those whose time is so employed as not to permit of the taking of such exercises as above mentioned I should advise the Turkish bath which could be obtaine<l by the use of a “home cabinet.” The daily ordinary bath (the early morning be ing the best time) should not be for gotten, nor the necessity of much friction and hand rubbing after leav ing the bath should not be overlooked; hair brushes are capable of good work in that respect (hair brushes made to fit the hand like a glove, the hair being cut very short).

A Good Opportunity. Call and Examine it lllilillllllllllllllllllllllllllllill Speaking ot Secrets Several projects are hatching just now that are not allowed to be told because they are not far enough along to be counted. They may not work out. But if they do that will mean a lot of New Peach Development However, the plan at Marlboro is no secret. MARLBORO FARM is just below Aberdeen. A few years ago it was a sandy desert. Last week Sam Richardson bought a half interest in 25 acres of it, and the price of that 25 acres was $15,000. And another transaction that is not a secret is that Marlboro Farm will plant 100 acres of peaches this fall, and that ultimately it will have 500 ACRES OF PEACHES. There is no secret about the fine peach lands the EDGEMOORE ilEIGHTS still have available. A view from the hill top where Lee Page has cleared the tract he has bought a few weeks ago from the Edgemoore property tells whether Edgemoore land is peach land. Take a look at that JiiU top, and after you have sized up that ridge take a look at FRANK BUCHAN SOUTHERN PINES, NORTH CAROLINA Money there for you if you want it. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiimiiii OE
