Excessive Use of Pepper, Salt, Nus
lard and Vinegar in Consump-
ton Of Tasteless Foods.

The condiments In common use are
SALT pepper. mustard and vinegar.
and they are generally employed to
give sapidity to unpalatable, odorless or
comparatively tasteless food The first
named three substances have the prop
erty OF stimulating the flow OF the di-
gestive juices when applied to the tongue
or stomach, and thus they compensate
to some extent for the absence Of the
natural stimuli. which are tempting in
appearance, smell and taste, says the
American Queen.
A bit OF cold meat does not tempt
the appetite; the teeth do not water at
the prospect of an attenuated joint Of
cold mutton. Why? Because neither the
eye, the nose nor the tongue is able
to give the signal that something de-
sirable Is on its way to the stomach,
nor is 1t inclined to put all the diges-
tive forces on the Qui vive The
healthy inner man does not crave for
cold meats. unless the system is badly in
want OF nourishment, because it knows
to its cost that such are neither so di-
gestible nor SO nourishing as fresh
cooked hot viands.
Hence, cold food is generally very
freely mixed with salt, pepper of the
cayenne order. mustard, or vinegar,
which stimulate the palate by me-
chanical process of irritation, and so
promote the reluctant flow of digestive
juices of a sort.
OF all the condiments mentioned
above. salt is the only one that can just
ly lay claim to being necessary to health.
SO universal is its use that it has been
called the cosmopolitan condiment It
helps In forming important. constitu-
ents OF the gastric juice with the bile,
existing. indeed, in every fluid and every
solid OF the body, and forming about
half the total weight of the saline mat
tiers Of the blood.
But it is quite otherwise when we
come to deal with black, white or red
pepper, mustard, vinegar, sauces,
pickles. curries and spices
In the very strictest moderation they
may add fresh zest to dish, and slim

palate. But they are often INDUCED
in to such an extent that their action
on the processes of digestion and as
sim1lation becomes Injurious by vitiat-
ing the gastric juice and affecting the
coats of the stomach. Moreover, they
are provocative of thirst, which leads
to the consumption Of more liquid of
some kind or other than is good for the
system. even of healthy persons.
Persons who would think twice be-
fore applying small mustard plaster
to their comparatively hardy skins
think nothing ct bringing quantities of
mustard into immediate contact with
the more highly organized, and, there
fore, delicate mucous membrane of the
stomach, with results that must be in
the long run productive of serious i'm
pairments of its normal functions

The Earliest Pioneers.

The early account of the Wisconsin
river is unwritten history. There is
no theme that will attract and hold
the attention Of the early pioneers in
the Wisconsin valley like the romance
of their early pioneer adventures.
They never tire OF this theme and it
Is this instinct that has kept alive
with increasing interest OF the early
days Of the fur trader and explorer.
Jean Nicolet was the first white
man to explore the rivers and forests
in this state in 1884. But the Hud-
son Bay Fur Company was the
pioneer Of the Wisconsin river more
than two hundred years ago and its
history is one Of marvellous achieve
ment. No other company has held
sway SO long and SO we'll. Governors
and chief factors have changed with
the changing centuries but the charter
OF the Hudson Bay Fur Company and
their purposes have never changed.
They ruled over country as large as
all Europe and had 5000 men in their
employ. One Of their principal trad
ing posts in this state was in Forest
county close to the head waters Of
the Wisconsin river.
The writer has interviewed q
man that visited this post over ninety
years ago.
This company was perfectly familiar
with the Wisconsin river here at
Grand Rapids and the small streams
tributary to it two hundred years ago
and drew a splendid revenue from
this country for more than u hundred
years.
1t is not difficult to find several
graves where their comrades were
buried on the banks OF pleasant
lake just south OF Crandon, In Forest
county.

ABOUT WORK AND WORRY.
Overwork Sometimes Kills Because
the Health Has Not Been
Taken Care OF.

It is sometimes slight compensation
for the man who is broken down physi-
cally or mentally, the man with early
heart-disease or kidney disease, or the
neurasthenic, to boast that hard work
was the cause OF his undoing. It is a
much more respectable cause than dissi-
patton, or. at least, it would be, if it
were the cause, says Youths Compan-
ion. But the best medical authorities
and hygtenists believe that few men
have ever been seriously injured by
hard work properly done. It is hard
work, combined with worry, or hard
work performed In the wrong way, that
does the mischief in the majority of
cases.
as too much work-too constant appli-
cation without recreation of any sort;
but even in such case inquiry will usu-
ally show that there is want of
system which increases the hours Of
work and induces state OF worry and
hurry. Some of those who accom-
plish the greatest tasks seem to have
the least to do, and the reason for this
is that their work is thoroughly sys-
tematized. The day is not begun with
a despairing glance over all that must
be done before night, and hesitation
where to begin. On the contrary, each
hour has its appointed task; one thing
is taken up, and for the time being the
mind is concentrated upon that alone,
as If nothing else pressed for the day.
When this Is done the next Is taken up,
and the next; and when night comes
there is no accumulation of unfinished
work, and no worry for the morrow.
1t is the lack of system. the inability
to concentrate the mind on the work OF
the moment that makes for failure and
for breakdown.
Another reason why overwork kills is
that the man willfully or ignorantly
neglects the laws of health. He eats
too much under the mistaken idea that
food Is needed to help him bear the
strain. He neglects physical exercise
In the open air, and the system becomes
clogged with waste material.
System, a quiet perseverance in TAX
ing up and completing one thing at
time, moderation in eating, one hour at
least each day In the open air and seven
hours sleep, will enable man to put
behind him an enormous amount of
work every day without hurt to mind
or body.

ticket. While there has been another

TO ALL cATARRH SUFFERERS.

or Money Refunded.
The popularity and increase in the
sales OF Hyomei are unique in the
annals OF medicine. Such astonishing
cures have been made by this remark
able remedy that the proprietors have
authorized John e. DAILY to sell every
package of Hyomei under an absolute
guarantee that 1t will cure catarrh.
II 1t does not, the purchaser can have
his money refunded by John e. DAILY.
Hyomei is no ordinary remedy. 1t
Is tie only method Of treatment that
sends BY direct inhalation to the most
remote part Of the air passages, a
balsamic air that destroys all catarrhal
germs ia the breathing organs, en-
riches and purifies the blood with
additional ozone, and makes perma-
nent and complete cures OF catarrh.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but 81 90 and consists OF an inhaler
that can be carried in the vest pocket,
q medicine drcpper and bottle OF
HyOmei. The inhaler lasts lifetime,
and il one bottle does not cure, an
extra bottle of Hyomei can be OBJ
tanned for SO cents. 1t is the most
economical Of all remedies advertised
for the cure OF catarrh, and is the
only one that follows nature in her
methods OF treating diseases OF the
respiratory organs.
Breathe through the inhaler for q
few minutes four times a day and
your cAtarrh is cured. That's all,
II not cured John e. DAILY will
refund your money.

The Home Paper.

The Windsor mo. Review publishes
the following on the subject of the re-
lation Of the "home paper' to the
people of a community:
Someone has well said that your
home paper never loses interest in you.
This possibly you have never given a
passing thought. No matter whether
you like the newspaper man or he likes
you, If he is true to his profession and
publishes paper for the people, he
allows no personal matters or petty
spites to interfere with his work of
news-gathering. He may meet you as
stranger, yet along with his best and
dearest friends chronicle your sue
ceSses and your sorrows wherever you
may be. Those who would forget you
but for your home paper, are ever and
anon reminded of your existence by
some item In the village paper where
you spend your boyhood days. Others
may deceive and defraud you, but the
home paper never forgets you.
Possibly you do not always deserve it,
but a newspaper on the right lines has
no pets, and should it at any time say
things that cause your fur to turn the
wrong way, study moment and see
II it has not at various times said
many nice things of which you fail to
give it credit,
