Every recovery, whether from head

Therefore. do not let yourself be ILL.,
The best plan to avoid illness is to

that stupid people alone will deem

Sleep eight hours in every twenty

Ventilate the rooms you work and

Examine seriously into your list Of

and simplify your social life-simplify

Drink nothing but water or milk

In looking over the new publications
of the holiday season, the observer cam
not but be struck by the presence of
one especially admirable factor i'm the

and II Is not by any means. i'm every
instance, a new edition of foreign au-

too many reprints of English and Con-
tinental classics but 1t Is good to see
that the American classic also is more
than ever in favor among the makers
OF handsome books. We need not
quarrel with the occasional inclusion of
some American who Is not i'm the least
classical. He, after all, is not con-
spicuous among the new books The
chief aim of the publishers in this mat

like Hawthorne and Poe, Bret Harte
and The Autocrat. and for activities of
this sort we can only be grateful. While
we are abiding to new editions of ma

form OF enterprise which may be popu-
lar but is none the less tasteless and
absurd. We refer to the new edition
OF a novel that has been put upon the

commercial point of view, but it is

increased it, until at present 4 bust
ness of $500, 900 annually is trans
acted. The business has always been
profitable. There has not been n year
in the past IL when the business has
not earned in actual cash more than
an amount necessary to pay ~ annual
dividend on 81 900. 900. and the past
four years the business has more than
doubled, and is still growing.
AS an evidence of the prosperity of
the business, the, fact is cited that
from 727, 1924 pairs of shoes sold in the
year ending July l, 1898. the business
has steadilyincreased to ], 7sS, OOOpairs
for the year ending July l, 1902, or
more than million pairs increase.
An addition is now being built to
the Douglas factory, which will in
crease the output from 1900 pairs to
10000 pairs daily, and increase the
volume of business to s., 900. 900 in 1903.
The w. l.. Douglas shoe business is
managed on an entirely different plan
from that of any other shoe concern.
The business is now and has been
for many years managed by board Of
directors composed of capable bust
ness men. This board of directors
are young men, heads of the business
departments. They have learned my
system of manufacturing and method
of selling shoes The business has
more than doubled in the past four
years under their management, and is
now paying larger profits than ever
before. There can be no break in this
board of management, as each head
of department has an able assistant
who can step in at any time and take
charge of the department with which
he is connected. This plan was orig
mated by me for the purpose of per-
petuating the business, and making it
permanently prosperous without re-
quiring my personal supervision.
The Douglas product is marketed in
an original way. The method by which
the goods are sold has made a place for

Hot Weather Hints,

Something that will protect the
health and strength OF men, women ana
children during hot weather is truly a
great blessing. A medicine which in
sures perfect digestion and healthy
stomach is the medicine that Will DO
this. Summer sickness is ~ per cent
stomach sickness due to indigestion.
Ninety nine of every 100 people Who
are sick in summer can trace 1T TO m
digestion. All stomach and bowel tfou-
bles, such as collie. cholera, diarrh@a,
dysentery. tlux bilious collie and often
fever are the direct results OF lndlgeS-
ton.
Summer diet is hard on the stomach
and digestive organs. Fermentation re
sulting from Indigestion is the cause OF
all of the above troubles.
Kodol is the one great remedy Whlch
protects the health and strength OF
men, women and children during no,
weather. 1t is impossible for the ston.-
ach and digestive organs to get out OF
order or fail to perform their functions
naturally when kodol is used. No sum
n,er sickness, no Indigestion and no
stomach trouble can overtalle the man,
woman or child who will meet the first
SYMPTOMS by the use of kodol. Sour
stomach. belching of gas, heartburn,
ralpitation of the heart, fullness after
eating. loss of appetite. bad breath ana
coated tongue are some of the synlp-
toms indicating imperfect digestion,
ard fermentation as the first stage of
stomach disorder Cathartics paralyze
the digestive organs, they strain and
break down the glands of the stomach
and their effect is to weaken the
strength and vitality of the system
generally. Kodol contains the natural
clements of digestion, and removes the
cause of the trouble by correcting fer
mentaton.
kodol corrects fermentation. insures
perfect digestion. cleanses. purities and
sweetens the stomach, gives strength,
tone and elasticity to the glands and
membranes lining the stomach.
This famous tonic is prepared in
.he laboratories of Il. c. Dewitt q Co,
Chicago, whose facilities for the manu-
facture of medical preparations are
unequalled anywhere in the country.
