"NASAL VOICES, CATARRH AND
FALSE TEETH"

A prominent Enolish woman says
the American Women all have high,
slrll na. al voice aud false teeth
Americans cont like the const mt
tWilti1g they get about this nasal
tNang. AM vet it is II fact caused 10y
our dry stimulating atmosphere, and
the universal presence OF catarrhal
di.lieu ties.
But why should SO many of our
women have false teeth ?
That is more ol a poser TO the Eng
lish. 1t is qui'c impossible TO az
count for il except oli.the theory OF de-
ranged stomach action caused by Inn
prudence in eating and by want OF
regular oXerciTc
Both conditions are unnatural.
Catarrhal troubles everywhere pre-
vail and end in cough and consump-
ton, which are promoted by NAL
nutrition induced by deranged
stomach action. The condition is a
modern one, one unknown to our an
cestors who prevented the catarrh.
cold, cough and consumption by
abundant and regular use OF what il
now known as Warmers Log Cabin
cough and consumption remedy and
Log Cabin sarsaparilla, two old
fashioned standard remedies handed
down from our ancestors, and
now exclusively put forth under
the strongest guarantees of purity
and efficacy by the world-fan.ed
makers of Warner's safe cure.
These two remedies plentiClly
used as the fall and winter sea-
sons advance, together with an oc.
ca>ional use of Warmers Log Cabin
rose cream, to strengthen and protect
the nasal membranes, give a positive
assurance OF freedom, both from
catarrh and those dreadful and if
neglected, inevitable consequences,
pneumonia, lung troubles and con-
sumption, which so generally and
fatally prevail among our people.
Comrade Eli Fisher, of Salem,
Henry Co., Iowa, served four years in
the late war and contracted disease
called consumption by the doctors.
He had frequent hemorrhages. After
Using Warmers Lo, Cabin cough and
consumption remedy, he says, under
date of Jan. 18th, 1888: 81 do not
bleed at the lungs any more, my cough
does not bother me, and | do not
have any more smothering spells"
Warmers Log Cabin rose cream cured
his wife of catarrh and she is "sound
and we'll"
OF course we do not like to have
)ur women called nose takers and
alse teeth owners, but these condi-
lions can be readily overcome i'll the
manner indicated.

sept lchers are cut in the solid rock
and carefully formed in regular com
partments, with an area of from thirty
five to forty square meters. In these

Accordi3g to medical contem'
porary, br. Gous eneur l.. Smith, u
New York, has just given some III
teresting and startling facts in regarJ
to pneumonia. DR. Smith points ouI
that the disease is becuning worse
every year, increasing rather than de-
cle,slng, both in the number of cases
and the percentage ot mortality. The
Stats les Of the Pennsy lvauia hospitt.l
show that the mortality from pnen.
mona there advanced from 81 per
cent m 1917 to Is J per cent i'll 1867 !,
and 81 per cent III 1886. Similarly
IN the New York hospital the ra,lo OF
mortality from this disease IS more
than double that it was III 1873.
Thirty or forty yea,s ago IL was re,
garded us SERIOUS, but il did not eXclt {
anything like the alarm it does to-
day. Dr. Smith is rather incilned to
believe that the medical art, instead
ot progressing Iii Is Treatment OF

bakers profits, or what a barrel of
-four is worth when made into bread
A baker will toss barrel of flour into
a trough. Then he tosses 104 pounds
of water on top. A quantity of yeast
is added, and the baker has 800
pounds of dough to operate on. The
300 pounds cost him So. In short
order the dough is turned into
TWISTS" high loaves, pan loaves, and
other styles of the same quality. The
ovens heat reduces the 300 pounds of
dough to 26O pounds of bread. The
baker sells his bread at the rate of four
cents a pound, or at an advance of
over 30 per cent over what it cost
him. There are l 400 bakers, great or
small, in New York City, and to them
is committed the trust of supplying
bread for 1000, 900 persons.
There are many bakers in that city
who make 1900 loaves of bread per
day and sell it for from $50 to $50,
or a net profit Of $40 Little money
is lost i'll the business, and most
bakers do a cash trade.

It would do Price McGrath and
John Harper good to see the Blue
Grass horsemen Of .Old Kaintuckp
gather about a Hoffman House table
these nights, drink whisky and talk OF
the old times of the race track. These
Kentuckians are all such big men that
three of 'em completely SURF ound and
fill up a table. They never seem to
be able to fill themselves up. Major
Dougherty, OF Lexington, saw a man
a night or two since who reminded him
Of a gallant young Kentcukian named
Offatt, and an adventure MIR. Offatt
had with his brother-in-law He had
notion to forbid this brother-in-law
toscome to town while he was there
One day in conversation with Major
Dougherty at a store door Offatt said:
"Pardon me, Major, I want to speak
to my brother-in-law for moment, y
and Selling doubled arreIed shotgun
from the corner, he stepped quietly in.
to the street, and riddled his brother
in-law for his disobedience He re-
turned without a, VOID, leaving the
dying man on the sidewalk,
and was surprised that the
Major didn't seem to feel like
resuming their conversation where it
had been interrupted. This same
Offatt, who was tbA black sheep OF a
good family, told Ia friend who expos,
tulated with him: $50 help me Gawd,
sab, I nevah killed niggah in my life,
'ceptin' war in liquor" At that
time he had five notches on his stick,
each Of them figuring for a corpse he
had made. -.
Another Kentucky story told at
this table was by the handsome and
gigantic ex-Mayor Walsh, of Hot
Springs, Ark. Heastruck up a pleasant
travelling acquaintance with fellow
passenger on q Kentucky railroad.
AS the train Stacked up at way sta
ton his new acquaintance said: eek
cuse me, but you'd better move to
one side, hadn't you. l see q man on
the :. platform l may have
you're just in line for q shot,
Mayor Walsh moved, the shooting be-.
gan, and when the train steamed
away in few moments the man on
the platform was still there, and not
likely to leave it except feet forem ost.
Then old Colonel Zeb Brown, Price
McGrath's chum, and the same al
most as q son to him, remembered
walking down a street of Versailles.
KY, one day. and seeing a man on
the opposite side of the street stop
and kiss q very pretty woman. She
was the L.sser's wife, too, but she
hadn't tuli,:>l one corner before her
brother, with knife in his hand,
turned another, and, before they
could cross the street, the husband
h ad received thirty five cuts, and was
dead, on his back. The brother-in-
law, who had warned the husband he
would kill him on sight, staggered
away with a dozen or so cuts, leaving
a bright red trail on the pavement.
