Surgeons Knife Not Needed.

Surgery is no longer necessary to cure
piles. DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve
cures such cases at once, removing
the necessity for dangerous, painful and
expensive operations. For scalds,
cuts, burns. wounds, bruises, sores and
skin diseases it is unequalled. Be

The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1902-09-12

The necessity for a system Of inspec-
ton Of shingles is thus discussed by the
Mississippi Valley Lumberman:
Some time ago Minneapolis jobbers of red
cedar shingles gave some consideration to a
scheme for the inspection Of shingles. AS ex-
pressed at that time, the idea was to establish
inspection bureau along the same lines fol-
lowed in the organization of the bureau of uni.
The number Of complaints that have recently
come to our notice of shortage i'll single punches
and Of poorly manufactured shingles, suggests
the possibility that the wholesalers would find
it to their advantage to carry out the plans
suggested In connection with the various COM
two rndoubted facts. One of these is that there
IRE good many poorly manufactured shingles.
The other is that good many complaints are
registered that are not justifable. The first
of these is probably due less to the willingness
Of the manufacturers themselves than to care.
manufacturing concerns on the west coast EN-.
poy regular inspectors but in most Of the plants
tue head packers the bosses. AS these men
are paid for the amount of work they turn
out they are less likely to be particular about
excluding poorly manufactured shingles than they
would be We're their compensa ton dependent OIL
some other principle.
On the other hand the number OF complaints
made by buyers of shingles would very likely be
cut down to large extent were the complain
ant possessed of the knowledge that his kick
would be investigated by competent inspector
a system Of inspection whereby disputes could
be referred to q dsinterested party would prove
check on the buyer who makes unjust claims,
