THE ANALYSIS OF MILK.
Its Importance to the Physician Brought Be-
fore the State Board of Health.

Its Importance to the Physician Brought Be.
fore the State Board of Health.
The State Board of Health intends
to issue quarterly, four-page bulletin
relating to the work of the Laboratory
and its relation to the health of the
State and to the needs of the physic-
ians. The bulletin fol- this quarter is
entitled: ''The Analysis of Milk and
its Importance to the Physician. 1t
is written by A. Robin, NJ. D., who
starts out by saying:
"Milk is justly considered to be an
ideal food. 1t contains all the organic
and inorganic substances i'll a quantity
and proportion, which makes it not
only assimilable but highly nutritious
The fonr food stuffs essential to nutri-
ton are found in milk. Proteids are
represented by the casein and serem-
albumin, otherwise called lactalbumen.
Carbohydrates are represented by the
milk sugar, hydrocarbons by the fat
(butter.) The inorganic salts are
chiefly calcium phosphate, potassium
and sodium clOrides with small quaint
ties of magnesium phosphate and iron.
Water forms 80 per cent. of the total
quantity of milk. This ideal food is
primarily intended for the nutrition OF
the young of all the mamalia"

Story of a Slave.

TO be bound hand and foot for years
by the chains of disease is the worst
form of slavery. George D. Williams,
of Manchester, Mich. tells how such a
slave was made free. He says: my
wife has been so helpless for five years
that she could not turn over in bed
alone. After using two bottles of
Electric Bitters, she is wonderfully i'm
proved and able to do her own work. :"
This supreme remedy for female dis
eases quickly cures nervousness, sleep
lessness, melancholy, headache, back
ache, fainting and dizzy spells. This
miracle working medicine is godsend
to week, sickly, run down people.
Every bottle guaranteed. Only so
cents. Sold by Jas. P. Hoffecker,
Smyrna, and 7. L. Mason, Clayton.
One man is probably just as good as
another, but he usually considers him
self a little better.
