was also made to get better facilities for
shipping. and that within REASONABLE
snort time a pipe line and crushers will
be put in. The location of the building
will be determined by the engineers and
capitalists when the deal is assured. but
IL is most likely that 1t will be near Gun
nison. small town about fifteen miles
south of this city.

Mrs. John {. Witbeck of this city were
held from the Tabernacle yesterday aft
ernoon at 3 o'clock. A large gathering

ALCOHOL AS FOOD.
Science Has Found Substitutes That

KANSAS city Journal)


Science has found a good substitute for
every one of the medical uses for which
alcohol may be employed. As a hypnotic

or as an antiseotiC. other drugs have
been found or manufactured that are SUI

In hospitals and the sick room only in
the cases OF patients whose cornwall ma b.
stimulus is necessary, and where there
Is no choice as TO what kind shall be
used. Alcohol may now be dropped from

The best that can be said for alcohol

depend on the functional activity OF the
tissues Of the body to oXidize the com
Dustible alcohol presented to it. There
Is no way TO figure out a rule to fit
all cases IN this matter. But the con

In tact; medical science has reached the
conclusion that II is useless. IL rot in
