GOTTLIEB LEHMAN, Prop. v Climatic DUMM. • • t'he influence of climatic conditions itl the cure of consumption is very much overdrawn. The poor patient, and the rich patient, too, can do much better at home by proper attention to food diges­ tion and a regular use of German Syrop. Free expectoration in the morning is made certain by German Syrup, so is a good night's rest and the absence of that weakening cough and debilitating night sweat. Restless nights and the exhaustion nue to coughing, the great est danger and dread of the cohsninji- t.iv<, can be prevented or stopped by raking German Syrup liberally and reg­ ularly. Should you be. alble t© go to a warmer clime, you will find that of the rhom>ands of consumptives there, the few who are benefited and regain -trength are those who use Gerrnm ^yrup.

Henry Beach Needham, in tin inli* mate study, "Theodore Roosevelt--An Outdoor Man," in the January Mc Clure's, tells more than the average cit izen of the United States ever guesses of the work and play of the President After reading this article one wonders how Mr. Roosevelt has the strength to stick to the pace. And Mr. Needham fells something else: that the Presi lent started life handicapped by ill - health, and only through persistent ef­ fort acquired his splendid physique. The illustrations are copies of rare pho­ nographs, most of which borrow added interest from their unusual surround­ ings. The article is especially interest­ ing to fathers and mothers and sons and laughters because it suggests the idea chat almost anybody can attain the -<ame degree of activity that Mr. Roose velt has attained--by choosing rightly what to do. That its the President's own idea about it. JJe says (hat it is in the choosing. »- ~ .
