Only Half Alive.

There are hosts of men and women who, to coin phrase, are only half alive. That is to say, they have seldom if ever any ap- petite, are nervous, weak, fdgetty and troubled by numberless small pains and aches. In the presence of vigorous, exu- berant vitality they seem mere pignies. Such persons are usually fond of frequently dosing themselves, swallowing D, the course of the year enough drugs to stock any apothecary's shop of average dimensions. This, of course, defeats inst cad of further ing the end in view, viz, the recovery of health and vigor. Were they to seek it from an uafailiag soarce of vitality, Hos tetter's Stomach Bi5ters. hoa different would be their case. Then vigor would return to their facilitated frame the glow Of health to their wan cheeks, their tr>.ab- ling uncertain gait would grow firm and elastic, appetite that grandest of all sources would give a relish for the daily food, were it ever so coarse, and refreshing sleep would crown the tasks of the day.

O.eomargarine is made in the following way: Animal fat, over the surface of which salt has been s,rinkled. IS heated to abou, l2) deg. F. The fat melts to oil. the str4ight fat rises to the top, the poorer DOT tion is exported to Europe for candle mak- ing. The clear fat is placed in large boxes holding 500 to GOO pounds and is allow ed to cool and granulate. It is next placed in heavy duck bags, and submitted to d hy dTaulic pressure Of from 50 to 70 tons to the square inch. Under this pressure the oleo oll flows out, leaving the hard stearine. which is largely used to mix with lard. Tle oil Is then mixed with milk and real butter, the latter being added in greater or less amount, depending on the kind of pro- duct desired. The mixture is churned ike rsgalar butter, and the product is oleoinar- garine. Instead of the straight animal fat, suet is often used Butterine is a con.- pound of lard and butter.
