Discovered by a Woman.

Another great discovery has been
made and that, too, by lady in this
country. Disease fastened its clutches
upon her and for for seven years she
withstood its severest tests, but her
vital organs were undermined and
death seemed imminent. For three
months she coughed necessarily and
could not sleep. She finally discovered
way to recovery by purchasing a
bottle of DIR. Kings New Discovery
for consumption. and was so much re-
-neved on taking the first dose, that she
slept all night and with two bottles has
been absolutely cured. Her name is
Mrs. Luther Lutz. Thus writes w.
C. Hamnick & Co.. of Shelby, North
Carolina. Trial bottles at A. G.. Luken
d Co. IS drug store.
Regular size so and $l.00, every
bottle guaranteed.

DEATH RATE GROWING.
Doctors Attribute II to What We Eat

The constantly increasing number
OF deaths from stomach troubles is ex
citing the keenest interest among the
medical fraternity. The prevalence
of these stomach disorders or ailments
the doctors attribute largely to impure
food products with which the country
at large seems to be flooded. and in an
attempt to couLteract which many of
the states have enacted pure
food laws. The fact of the matter is
the people of the United States
are. as a rule, too careless and indif-
ferent as to what they eat or how it il
cooked, and the inevitable penalty of
dis ordered stomaehs is the result. One
of the authorizations that is most seri-
Gus in its effects is the use of alum TO
whIten bread or to furnish cheap bak
ing powder. 1t destroys the coating
of the stomach, produces dyspepsia,
and eventually poisons the blood. Try
piece of alum in your mouth and
note the result. No stomach into which
it enters can long remain healthy.

Glass has been employed. we know,
both for decorative and domestic pur-
poses since the dawn of civilization.
The earliest remains date from Egypt
1904 b. c., and are preserved in the
British museum. 1t is an amulet in the
form of a lions bead. of opaque blue
color, with hieroglyphics that determine
its date. On the rock cut tombs of the
metropolis of Memphis glass blowers
were depicted as early as 5000 B. O.
Stories are told by Pliny, Josephus and
other writers to account for its discov-
cry, but these are very doubtful, so that
we have only to rely upon facts attested
by actual remains. The discovery was
doubtless fortuitous. Such lucky finds
are often the work of chance. When il
occurred, we cannot determine, but so
far as we know, Egypt. as she was the
germ of all civilizations, was also the
mother of this art, which she applied
to multitude of purposes. strangely
excepting that which we deem most
necessary-namely, to admit light into
buildings. The jewellers by the Nile
handed down the art to the Phpnicians,
who in like manner bequeathed it to
the Assyrians. Then it was passed along
to the Persians and the Greeks; then to
the Romans and the Byzantines. who
in turn communicated it to the Vens-
tians The monks of the middle ages
appropriate it to beautify their Gothic
temples, and so it came on the centuries
to modern times. - Woman's Home
