The Craze for Ouiuine.

They dose themselves with quinine

pear to regard it as a universal cure

and feyers, but for stomach disorders

"One customer of mine recently be-
came slightly nauseated after eating.
and he took quinlne. in the full be-
lief that Ii would put a period to the
sick feeling, while another entertains
theory that qulnlne is good for the

wrong with his organs. These are just
few of the foolish beliefs that many
people entertain regarding quinine. |

use for other physical troubles II it

nave ever sprung up | cannot imagine,

This Is the time of year when the
craze for quinine is most noticeable.

that while it is good thing for GER
tain ailments. when ,aken under the
direction of a physician. it has some
what injurious effects when taken pro
miscuously and for any old trouble

heavy dose of quinine will have a bad
effect on it, producing palpitation in
many cases. 1t will also cause head
aches, congestion in the nasal passages

The humiliation of Distance.

How much nearer to each other the
nations of the world seem to be to-day
and really are to-day than was the case
few decades ago! When weeks and
months were required for communica-
ton between the United States and
Europe the countries of the old world
appeared to be long way off. Now the
circumference of old earth is belted
with telegraph and cable lines in every
possible direction. What happens to-
day in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia,
South America and the great islands of
the sea is made known to us tomorrow
by great newspapers like The Chicago
Record-Herald, whose foreign CORE
spondents are located in every import
ant city in the world outside of the
United States. In addition to its own
staff correspondents The Record Herald
enjoys the foreign news service of the
New York Heard, famous for many
years for the reliability of its foreign
news; the New York World, and also of
that great cooperative newsgathering
association, the Associated Press. No
other daily newspaper in America pos
sesses facilities so varied and extensive
for covering the news of all nations.
