ing those of low and high cost She found
that twenty-five cents worth of Horsford's

moneys worth of the cheap aduterated
powders. and also that it took fifty cents
worth of the ordinary high-cost baking pow

this she concluded that it was more economi-
cal to use the Horsfords than the low priced

much better. We recommend trial of this

There is no doubt that the diphthera in its
worst form is very prevalent in many cities
and small towns. At the same time, that
fact is no reason for frightening people out
of their wits, with every new Gaze of sore
throat. Even liberated sore throat is bad
enough and no person would have that for
fun. Yet hundreds of persons are said to
have had diphtheria who only had severe
sore throat. The form of sore throat which
often passes for diphtheretic is what old
people call quinsy. ''Putrid sore throat"
known long before diphtheria, was probably
form of diphtheria, and very dangerous.
An old hospital nurse in Boston, says: at
amt the clear cold of winter that LAYS people
up with colds, catarrh, and sore throats, and
lays the children low with diphtheria; it's
the soft, pleasant, alternating with the wet,
slushy days" This is very true, and ex-
plains why those troubles are not so prevail
ent this unusually soft rainy winters the air,
in fact, is laden with poisonous vapors.
The first symptoms of true diphtheria are
much like those of heavy cold on the
lungs. There is fever, some stupor, and
difficulty in breathing. Very sharp pains
are often felt in the neck glands, Just below
the ear. The tongue is coated, the throat
and tonsils iuiiamed, little white spots
which increase and turn TO dirty yellow or
brown color next appear, and peculiar odor
totally unlike liberated sore throat is
noticeable. If the disease is of the black or
malignant type nothing but miracle can
restore the patients to their former good
health. Very many reliable people claim
to have cured severe cases of diphtheria
with Johnson's Anodyne Liniment. Be that
as it may, it is worth trying, because so
easily used internally, dropped on sugar or
as gargle, and bathing for external use.
We know from experience that it will cure
a common sore throat In one night and
