THE MODERN WAY

To cure a weak stomach is to take Hostetter's Stomach Bitters at the very first symptom. It does away with starving and dieting yourself because it puts the stomach in proper condi- tion to digest the food. In this way It cures Indigestion, Dyspepsia, constlpa- ton, Blllousness, Heartburn, Insomnia, Headache, Cramps or Diarrhoea. Ner- vous and sickIy women also find the Bitters unequaled as a regulator and tonic. We urge fair trial.

She sat down YEARLY and gazed for

"That was the idea we started to

will not stand advertising is passed.
Men are advertising today who told
us five years ago that advertising
would do them no good. Others who
now say the same thing will them
selves be advertising in another five
years.
"Why," concluded MIR. Aver, with a
smile, there were some who told us
when we started that this business
could not be run successfully from
Philadelphia. Think of that"

FISH FOOD NOT THE BEST
Many Fallacfes About a Diet ON Sc,
Products Are Extant.

Many Fallacies About a Diet ON Sea
Products Are Extant.
1t is doubtful whether any given
food in common use contains constitu-
ents which have a selective action, so
to speak, on the property of minister
ing to one part Of the body more than
another. AS a rule. when food is as
sumed to have specific reparative prop
erties-as, for example, a so called
brain or nerve food-the fact really is
that such food is easily and quickly
assimilated to the body's general ad-
vantage; in word, in such a case re-
pair quickly overtakes waste and a
real purposeful nutrition and restora-
ton are accomplished. The admins
tration of such elements as phosphorus
or iron in medicine is. of course. diff
ferent matter, but these elements are
evenly distributed in the materials Of a
daily diet.
It is often stated that fish is food
which ministers particularly to the
needs Of the brain, because it contains
phosphorus. AS q matter of fact. fish
does not contain more phosphorus than
do the ordinary meat foods, and it GER
tainly does not contain it in free
state. The notion that fish contains
phosphorus had no doubt it's origin in
the glowing pAosphorescence Of fish in
the dark. This phosphorescence is due
not to phosphorus at all, but to micro
organisms. The belief, therefore. that
fish is brain food is just about as
reasonable as the idea that because q
soup is thick and gelatinous 1T will

Fish. Of course, is excellent food.
partly because Of the nourishing ma
ture Of its constituents and partly be
cause Of its digestibility. But It is in
no sense specific for brain or nerve.

a few hours and afterward placed in

manufacture of matches. The employ

charging of matches made the indus

workpeople, if not in the best of

terrible disease known as necrosis of

which was "phossy jaw" With i'm

The Effect Of Evaporation Upon solu-
tions of Formaidehyde,

The Effect Of Evaporation Upon solu-
tions Of FormaIdehyde.
(By Henry l.. Bolley and Thomas
Manns of the State Agricultural
College.)
Farmers have often asked the ques-
tons: Must the solution which is
made UP for treating seed grain all
be used up the same day." 'Will it
grow weaker from standing?" Must
new lot Of solution be made up each
day." Does the standard formalde-
hyde lose strength if left uncorked ?"
etc.
We have thought it worth while to
make some special tests of this matter
of evaporation, and the results are q
surprise.
/. We have boiled formaldehyde
of many stregths and tested both that
which evaporated and that which re-
manned in the still; and we have made
similar tests after slow evaporation at
ordinary room temperature. The re-
suits are always the same. Solutions
Of formaldehyde grow stronger by
evaporation; that is, water is given OF
faster than formaldehyde.
This is an important fact. The
farmer can therefore rely on solution
which has stood open for number Of
days, being fully as strong as when
first made. q; .&. "a. .>l>4sss Z sssss.
1t also gives us a pointer In regard
to weakening or adulterauon. Solu-
tions of standard formaldehyde do not
grow weaker from long standing un-
less water is allowed to get into the
bottle or carboy. This also settles
the complaint of the druggists that
farmers who fail with the smut treat
ment do so because they carelessly
allow the formaldehyde to lose it's
strength by evaporation" And final
", 1t shows that the manufacturers
of formaldehyde who contend that It
is difficult to make water hold 40 per
cent, have not. perhaps, tried as hard
as they might. Full details Of this
work will be given In the Annual Re-
port Of the Experimental station for

AVER & SONS s5TH BIRTHDAY.

Great Advertising Firm Started In
One Room with $3.50 capital-Has
y Since Transacted Business Of $685.
100000.
The firm of N. W. Aver & Son. the
largest advertising agency in the
United States, celebrated recently the
thirty-ffth anniversary of a business
whose success and growth can be
measured only by the progress of ad-
vertising itself in this country.
Il Starting at a time when the i'm
mense resources and power of modern
advertising were unknown. N. w.
Aver and his son, F. W. Aver, entered
the field with the idea of making it a
business and conducting that business
along Philadelphia methods.
+. They started, father and son, in a
room only twenty feet square, on
SAMSON street, near Seventh, near the
present press" building, on April 1,
1869. Their capital was $3.50, and, as
Mr.. F. w. Aver, the present head of
the firm, laughingly said the other
day: Father was the head, was
the Office boy, and we we're equal
partners"
With this capital the firm proceeded
to develop newspaper advertising, and
in the first year did business Of $15,-
600. In the thirty&our years since
they have furnished to the newspapers
OF the United States total OF more
than $35, 100000 Of advertising. To
day they are dealing with $4,000 publ
cations and their payments to these
average $4,000 day, or roughly
speaking, $3,60000o a year. f. ~..
kept Everlastingiy At IT,"
II This enormous business enterprise
was started with the settled convic-
ton that Philadelphia was the city in
which it could be made a success, and
that Philadelphia business methods
would make MSa success. In the little
room on SAMSON street, father and
son adopted the now we'll known Phil
adelphia motto, keeping everlasingly
.at It brings success On the wells
