times when there is a possibility of in

modern science has provided methods
unthought of a few years ago. The
books arc opened up wide so as to let

ana Thea stacked in an air-tight box
about the size of a piano box. The for
m3ldehyde generator is placed in the
box and set at work, the cover fastened
on and the books left to stew in the
poisonous fumes for some hours. The
close contact with the gas may injure
the bindings, but it is sure death to
everything in the microhe line. After
being removed from the box the books
are aired. as the gas is not the most
pleasant thing to breathe, and it is got

to the readers again. The same
method is employed in disinfecting
books at the schools, and in work at
houses. the rooms being shut up tight

Everything is opened up so that the

of irons. his legs were shackled, after
which he was placed in cell and
locked in. Then the iron door and the
wooden door leading into the station

ton, and when the outer door was

A CLEVER ILLUSTRATION
With Conclusive Proof.

There is an old formula in philosophy
which says that no two things can oc-
cupy the same place at the same time.
AS a simple illustration, drive nail
into Il board and you will find with
every stroke of the hammer, the nail
will force aside the particles of wood
into which it is being driven, finally
making a place for itself, and proving
that the nail and the wood do not oc-
cupy the same place at the same time.
DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS
AND BLADDER and DR.. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy cannot occupy
the same place at the same time. If
You are troubled with frequent pains
in the back: if your urine stains linen;
if you are forced to urinate frequently
during the night, and a burning pain
accompanies its passage, your kidneys
and bladder are in bad shape and
should be treated at once.
With every bottle of DIR. DAVID
KENNEDY'S FAVORITE REMEDY,
taken according to directions, some of
the particles of the dread diseases of
the kidneys and bladder, liver, blood,
rheumatism, dyspepsia and constipa-
ton of the bowels. are slowly, but
surely, pushed aside until they COM
pletely disappear. Do not lose faith or
find fault. if you are not entirely cured
by one bottle, because if these diseases
have fastened their grip on you the
longer and harder it is to drive them
away.
