WHAT SULPHUR DOES.
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease.

The mention of sulphur will recall
to many of us the early days when
our mothers and grandmothers gave
us our daily dose of sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall.
1t was the universal spring and fall
"blOod purifier" tonic and cure~all,
and mind you, this old-fashioned rem
edy was not without merit.
The idea was. good, but the remedy
was crude and unpalatable, and a
large quantity had to be taken TO get
any effect
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects of sulphur in a palatable, con-
Centrated form, SO that a single grain
is far more effective than a table
spoonful of the crude sulphur.
In recent years, research and eX-
pertinent have proven that the best
sulphur for medicinal use is that OBJ
tanned from Calcium Calcium sui
phide) and sold in drugs stores under
the name of Stuart's Calcium WATERS
They are small chocolate coated pei
lets and contain the active medicinal
principle OF sulphur in a highly con-
centrated, effective form.
Few people are aware of the value
Of this form of sulphur in restoring
and maintaining bodily vigor and
health; sulphur acts directly on ale
liver, and eXcretory organs and pUri-
fies and enriches the blood by the
prompt elimination of waste material
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dOsed us with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall. but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary flow
er of sulphur We're often worse than
the disease, and cannot compare with
the modern concentrated preparations
of sulphur, of which Stuart's Calcium
Waters is undoubtedly the best and
most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure
constipation and purify the blood in
q way that often surprises patient
and physician alike.
Dr. r. M. Wilkins while experiment.
ing with sulphur remedies soon found
that the sulphur from Calcium was
superior to any other form. He says:
For liver kidney and blood troubles,
especially when resulting from consti-
patton or malaria, I have been sur
priSed at the results obtained from
Stuart's Calcium Waters. In patients
suffering from boils and pimples and
even deep-seated carbuncles, / have
repeatedly seen them dry up and dis
appear in four or five days. leaving
the SKIN cledf anu SHlooll. Although
Stuarts Calcium Waters is a pro-
prietary article, and sold by druggists,
and for that reason tabooed by many
physicians. yet | know of nothing so
safe and reliable for constipation, liver
and kidney troubles and especially in
all forms of skin disease as this rem
edy."
At any rate people who are tired
of pills, cathartics and so-called blood
purifiers" will find in Stuarts Cal
cium Waters a far safer, more palat-
able and effective preparation.

ROSH HASHANNAH.
The Jewish New Year Will Begin
Today at Sunset.

The Jewish year $3.50 will be ush-
cred in today. Rosh Hashannah, the
Jewish New Year, will begin at sun
set and end at sunset tomorrow.
Technically, it is not the first of the
year, inasmuch as it is the first day
of the seventh month in the Jewish
calendar.
Rosh Hashannah next to the Day of
Atonement, is the most sacred in the
Jewish calendar Not even the liberal
Hebrew will perform any labor on this
day. In the Hebrew world all work
ceases. The wheels of commerce rest,
and though a Hebrew may not enter
his place of worship during the whole
year, on this day, as on the Day Of
Atonement, the temple or the syna-
gogue will be graced by his presence.
On this day the regular order of
services are followed with this addi-
ton, that inasmuch as the Feast of
the New Moon comes at the same
time, being the first of the month,
selections from the Book of Psalms
are read. The blowing of the shofar
or rams horn, prior to the reading of
the selection from the five books OF
Moses.
In the middle of the ages. and even
among the most devout Hebrews to-
day, the time of the blowing of the
shofer is not only the most sacred
and solemn moment in the services of
the day, but the most sacred and sol
emn of the whole year, for al tins
time they imagined almost that the
gates of Heaven We're opened. and the
Shekinah himself drew near to look
into the hearts of the people to judge
them.
The old Hebrew sagas relate how or
this day Gods book of life is otpen'
and all those who are to be given life
for the ensuing year are inscribed in
this book 1t is further told how
those whose names are written in the
Book of Life obtain this reWard-by
the sincere observance of the holiday,
by the religious preparation during the
nine days succeeding, and the rigid
observance of the Day -Atonement.
One recognizes in this saga sim
DIe and effective method of having all
perform their religious duties on this
day.

the day, refused to state what expert
testimony the State intended having
to combat that of the defense. He
stated, however, that the question
would be largely one between what
had been seen by witnesses and what
had ben alphabetically testified to by
experts.
1t is gathered from other sources
that the State will contend that while
the diagnosis as to the cause of Nall
death which was made by Doctors
Mckee and jenkins and which was
supported by the majority of the eX-
perts examined might have been jus
titled by the symptoms exhibited, the
fact was that the heart of the dead
man was not found on examination
to exhibit the conditions which would
have obtained had he indeed died from
dilatation OF the heart.
