Settles Nervous BankruDtCV

Statistics show that ninety-fve
per cent. Of all persons engaged in
business in the United States fail.
Investigation shows that men who
succeed are men of brains, strong
nerves, great willpower. Ordinary
food and drink cannot supply the
vital force which people with active
brains and bodies require. Bicola
Pills feed the nerves, make the mind
bright, muscles strong make flesh
and blood and new energy, and give
perfect manhood with all that perfect
physical condition means. Eicola
Pills are a great tonic for wonsen-
they give health and strength to the
special organs and nerve centers.

Death in Milk Cans.

A case of milk poisoning in Utica, N.
Y, was traced first 20 the dealer whose
milk cans were found to be clean. Then
the health officer looked up the farmer
who supplied the dealer, and found his
cans in a most filthy condition, look
ing, he said. as if they had not been
cleaned for a week. This Is another
fact to indicate the value Of scrupulous
cleanliness in the handling of milk. AZ
other case, traced to the same cause,
was that which occurred at Camp Eat
on, Island Lake. Mich, where num-
Der Of soldiers were made violently Ill
from drinking milk taken from cans In
every one Of which decomposed milk
was found in the seams and crevices.

The Earth Was Made for All.

There's a question now uprising.
Deep affecting every hearth,
Sweeping on with speed surprising
IT'S the ownership Of earth;
And the sage the man Of letters,
Gazing on the future years,
Sees the falling of the letters
Sees the drying up of tears.
Men are learning now the folly
OF the claim that man at birth
Is a trespasser and wholly
Void Of claim to Mother Earth.
Let no tyrant bind thy knowledge
In a cell so cramped and small;
Seek the truth at natures college,
This fair earth was made for all.
Think We that the God Of nature.
When creation was at birth,
Dreamed that there would rise creature
That would buy and sell the earth
Who would extort from his fellow
Grinding landlords tribute high,
Ere the earth the poor may pillow
Aching head and dropping eye?
Pause and ponder, friend and brother;
IT'S the law of hellish birth
That one man must from another
Buy a right to live on earth.
But the mind of man is growing;
Soon the writing on the wall
To the tyrant will be showing
That the earth was made for all.
