The Latest Scientific Knowledge on
 Food and Digestion.

The real cause of most of our diseases is simply an inability to digest food This induces thinness, weakness, loss of flesh and fat, loss of vitality, wasting away.
 Loss of flesh and vitality means con- stant liability to sickness. Wasting away is consumption.
 If getting thin is what ails you, there is only one thing to do-get fat. The only way to do it is to take something which will help your stomach and stim- ulate it to do its work.
 If you are tired out you do not like to move your legs or arms. If your stom- ach is tired it does not like to digest; it cannot do it's work.
 To eat, or even to eat with relish, does not necessarily mean that one is being nourished. Strength, vitality and flesh are the true indications.
 Getting thin is sign that you need the Shaker Digestive Cordial. You would not be getting thin if you could digest your food.
 The Shaker Digestive Cordial not only contains artificially digested food, but it will digest other foods in the stom- ach.
 A single ten-cent bottle will show whether or not it is going to meet the conditions of your case, and if so, it's continued use may be depended on to effect cure. All druggists keep it in stock.

COOKING PossUM.
A Negro Chef Tells How To Do I

A Negro Chef Tells How To Do It.
 A negro's juicy appreciation of pos sum meat was well illustrated upon recent ccasion when woman with whom the narrator is acquainted paid a visit to New Orleans. She told him the story. She was walking down
 Chartres street early one morning, in tending to visit the celebrated French market of the Crescent City, and on her way she met a very old colored man coming from the opposite direction, evi-
 dently from the market, as he was car rying in one hand a 'possum and in the other a small, split wooden basket of sweet potatoes. The old mans face was beaming with good nature and wreathed
 in smiles of anticipatory pleasure. He
 looked so joyously into the face of the
 woman that she, too, could not help but
 smile at him, whereupon he held the
 'possum up aloft and said, Good eatin',
 missey, good eatin'." She stopped for a
 moment, looked at the childlike, hap
 py face of the old negro, and said:
 So, you like 'possum, do you?"
 Like 'possum, missey! I loves pos
 sum. Dare ain't no eatin' like 'possum.
 De 'possum am good, but de gravy
 with sweet potatoes is better. Did you | never eat 'possum, missey? Den you didn't know what good eatin' was. But
 mebbe you all wouldn't know how to
 cook MT. 'Possum, fur dars ebbyting in
 de know how"
 "Well, then, tell me how you cook it, !"
 she said.
 The old man set the 'possum and po- | tatoes down on the pavement, or. as they call it in New Orleans, the ban | quet," and with look of earnest con-
 centration began with: Now, don't
 you never forget jest what I'se gwine to tell you about how to cook de 'possum. We'll, de fust ting you does is to get you possum. Dat may be easy fur youths, but tain't for me; dat is, all ways. Well, den, when you's don got you's 'possum you skins him fust. Den you puts him into de pot with cold water, and put de pot over a hot fire,
 an den you parbiles him-not so much, fur you don't want to lose any of his | nice sweet fat. Den you takes him out of de pot an you dries him in clean towel. Den you puts him into a big | frying-pan; den you scrapes de skin off you sweet potatoes an you puts dem into de same pan wid MT Possum.
 Den you has you stove red, and den you
 puts de pan an pcssum and potatoes
 into de oven and den go away for lit-
 tie while, but not too long. Den you you comes back you puts in a little hot water, an den you begins and bastes de 'possum an de sweet potatoes, an
 you keeps on a-basting and adjusting till de 'possum is a good brown-jest like my color-an' de sweet potatoes Is soft and juicy an de gravy is almost
 black an plenty of it. Den you takes it
 out ob de oven an den you sots de ta- ble, and den-well, den, you bars de doors, fo' the smell of cooked 'possum
 goes a long ways, an wien you have l only one 'possum you doesn't want
 much company besides yourself" Now, there is your receipe for cooking possum, and given by probably one of the best chefs for that dish in the World.-Philadelp Times.
