Common Sense.

A large Minneapolis manufacturing
concern, The Pillsbury Co., are en-
ploying a unique method in advertis-
ing their product, "Pillsbury's Vitos,
The Meat of the Wheat" in appealing
to the Common Sense" of the Ameri-
canpublic.
Their assertions are modest as COM
pared to most of the cereal food adver-
tisements of the last few years, but
they carry a ring of truth. Their rea-
soning is certainly rational; here is
some of it:
"We all believe that Wheat is the
best cereal the Creator has given man
kind.
"Pillsburys Vitos is nothing more
nor less than the white heart of this
wheat kernel, cut out by steel machin-
cry and Notwithstanding added
nothing taken away-no adulteration
no flavorlng-no coloring-no COOK
ing.
"This product comes to your table
in it's pure, white. granular form, an
appetizing dish for young and old.
Easily digested because it retains
its granular form when cooked, never
lumpy or pasty.
"a two pound package makes twelve
pounds of pure white cooked food, and
Pillsbury quality, too. Two generous
dishes for one cent.
We have no competitors because we
are the largest millers in the world and
get the best wheat. Your grocer will
gladly fill your order for Pillsbury's
Vitos because he knows he sells you
satisfaction. Vitos is put np only in
two pound packages-air tight. Price

Dyspepsia.-A dessert spoonful or
more Of glycerine diluted with Ave
parts Of water and taken at the be-
ginning Of the meal prevents the usual
distress, belching. etc, which follows
the eating Of certain vegetables and
fruits. 1t Is not cure but simply a
relief.
Eruptions on the Face-The patient
should live temperately. avoiding all
stimulants and keep the bowels open.
A solution of carbonate or bicarbonate
of soda, one scruple to pint OF water,
makes very good wash. When the
eruptions break and become sores use
an ointment composed of lanoline one
ounce and oliate of mercury one grain,
rubbed on two or three times daily.
Black heads should be steamed and
squeezed out and the spots rubbed with
the ointment few times.
Homemade Liniment.-The primary
purposes Of a lniment are to serve as
disinfectant and to allay Inflammation.
Nature must do the rest toward curing
cuts. bruises or wounds of any kind.
Swellings. aches and pains result from
Inflammation and require the use cf
linlment. A very good one for both man
and beast Is composed OF alcohol. one
pint; spirits Of hartshorn. ~ ounces;
turpentne, one gill: sweet oil. one half
pint; line arnica, five ounces; chloro-
form. two ounces. This will make about
PA pints the equivalent of which in
quantity ard quality Of patent linl-
ment would cost from 50 to 81.
The Rain Cure.-This is the latest
fad. All that is required OF the pa
tient Is to stand in the open with the
body bare Of all clothing in the falling
rain. The sensation is said to he very
agreeable Those who have tried It as.
sert that the rain falling upon the bare
body invigorates the whole system and
is especially strengthening to the
nerves There Is no set rule for taking
the treatment. 1t Is declared that the
rain cure Is sure remedy for rhen-
matism and that decided improvement
has been noted in cases Of persons af-
fiicted with tuberculosis. For nervous
disorders the treatment is said to be
infallible. although we do not take
much stock in II.

HOW TO SELL GOODS
Instance In Which Salesman Made q
$4,000 Sale By Being Alert.

Instance In Which Salesman Made q
$4,000 Sale by Being Alert.
In the Worlds Work Is q story Of
good craftsmanship. The writer says:
At all times the travelling salesman
should be quick to see the unexpected
opportunity-and 1t might be added
that often such an opportunity is
brought to light by the impression
made upon the customer by a genuine
leader" Once bright young
salesman went into the office of a
Memphis merchant to sell him a bill
OF carbons for his arc lights. He was
conscious Of having a distinct advan-
tage In carbon that he could sell at
$11, for which his competitors were
obliged to get $3.50. You can't sell
that carbon for Sill, can you" in
quired the merchant Yes, sir; there
Is no mistake about It," quietly an
swered the young man. If you feel
any question about it just let me send
you what you need, and if they are not
all right In every particular you have
only to notify me and will come here
personally and ship them back to the
house"
We'll, on that understanding" re-
Piled the merchant, you may ship me
5000.
This time 1t was the salesman's turn
to be astonished, for this was a sensa-
tional quantity for a merchant to buy
for his own use.
May l ask" inquired the young
man. how you are going to use SO
many"
Certainly" answered the mer-
chant, drawing a set Of contracts from
a pigeon hole of his desk here are
the contracts for $4,000 lighting
plant that I am going to put in across
the street"
Signed them?" inquired the young
man.
No. but Pm going to tonight" an
swered the merchant, "for I've thrash
ed the details of this thing over until
I'm sick and tired Of them"
Now" responded the salesman,
1--WE demonstrated to you that can
beat those people all to pieces on The
price of carbons, and I give you my
word that l can do the same thing on
the plant that you propose to put in.
Put off the signing Of that contract
until tomorrow night, get on the train
with me and go to our plant in Chi
cago and l will show you that l can
save you money on equipment"
The merchant finally agreed, with
the result that the salesman who saw
this opportunity sold the merchant
$4,000 plant.

Home Nurain0.

Tenderness, in fact, Is more called
for in convalescence than during acute
illness. That the sick-room wheels run
with apparent ease will be infinitely
more grateful to person in actual
pain or discomfort than assurances Of
undying affection. Instead Of smooth
ing the patients brow. quietly guard
against wrinkles in the under sheet.
Instead of feeling" If the poor soul
be feversh or chilly. see that the hot
water bottle is hot and properly rolled
in a soft towel, or that the ice-bag has
not sprung a leak. Put your whole
mind to disposing the furniture so that
you neither take extra steps in walk
ing around tables and chairs, nor STUN
Bile twenty times a day over the same
footstoo. Set all bottles. measures
and medicine troopers in tidy groups
marks on window stills and table COW
ers. See that no light daZzles your
patients eyes-if necessary, change
the head Of the bed to the foot. Keep
fresh drinking water always at hand
and be sure that no used implements
are left about, waiting It'll some one
goes downstairs" also that no half
consumed food is left in sight, de-
stroying appetite for the next meal.
In your inevitable struggles with cut
flowers no one can help you. Like poor
Peggy, in Miss Killmansegg," before
the patient Is out again many nurse
fairly hates the scent of roses" You
can at least see that no faded ones
pollute the atmosphere. In the mat
ter of visitors be very sure that the
doctor directs how many may be seen
with advantage. and how many at
time, as this may insure an immense
saving Of iscussion.-Success Maya
