light when she sees hat in a mil.

sees the same hat on her neighbor's

A Chicago physician now claims
that a tuberculosis patient can be
cured by singing eight hours daily

We don't want to trade there any more,

The Spanish minister at Washing.
ton says that the loss of her colonies
was the best thing that could have
happened to Spain. Certainly the
acquisition of them was the worst
thing that could happened to the
United States. If Spain still harbors
any vindictive feeling against Uncle
Sam because of the war, she is getting
q whole lot OF satisfaction witnessing
the trouble he is having with the
white elephant captured.
The school board OF Neenah, Wis,
has established rule against kissing
among the pupils OF the public schools.
Any child over twelve years of age
who is caught kissing another will be
expelled. and any child under twelve
years Of age detected in the same
naughty act will be spanked "real
hard" Expulsion is too serious a
thing. but the child who won't take q
spanking in preference to the loss of a
kiss has an undeveloped intellect.

The Happy Waitress.

In q restaurant in a small town not
far from Kansas City is a waitress
who writes poetry. The other day
che approached a travelling man who
had just sat down a t atable and sur.

We have bean soup to-day,
Some roast lamb and steak.
Now which will you take?
Then coffee and tea.

The travelling man knew q little

EMBALMED MEAT.
The Effect Upon Dogs Demonstrated by the
Illinois Board Of Health.

The effect OF benzocote and borax,
two preservatives most generally used
as preservatives for meat, on the health
and disposition of brute creation and
probably on the human organism, was
demonstrated before the county and
city boards of health officers of the
State. who we're present by invitation.
DR.. ]. Crumbine, Secretary Of the
State Board of Health, conducted some
experiments on three dogs, which had
been on prescribed diet during May
and June. They found that benzoate
had made one Of the dogs cross and
spiteful and caused loss OF appetite;
that borax had caused a general decline
in health. Both chemicals after hav-
ing been used for q time caused loss in
weight.
The 1st of May DR.. Crumbine took
three dogs of about the same age.
Each morning he fed them half q
pound of fresh lean meat; at noon
each had q pint OF milk, and at night
each dog had another half pound OF
meat.
The meat was fresh and without
bones and was not scraps. The food
for one dog was treated with . l per
cent. solution of benzoste and for the
second per cent. solution of borax
was used. The third dog was fed un.
treated meat and milk. Within two
weeks the benzoate dog became cross
and refused to have anything to do
with the Others. It lost its appetite
and in six weeks had gained only three
pounds in weight. The borax dog did
not become cross, but within ten days
its general health declined and it re-.
fused to drink borated milk. In four
weeks it had to be coaxed to eat meat,
even when tasteless borax acid was
used. The dog gained one pound in
weight in six weeks, but became list.
less.
The dog that had been fed untreated
meat gained in weight an average of
one pound week during the test, and
1t was At no time listless nor did it
lose its appetite. From these expert.
ments DR.. Crumbine has concluded to
recommend that the State Board OF
Health limit the use of preservatives
to foodstuffs.
"Abolish" would have been . better
word to use.

1t was little lawyer man
Who softly blushed as he began
Her poor dead husbands will to scan.
He smiled, while thinking of his fee,
Then said to her so tenderly,
You have a nice, fat legacy.
And when, next day, he lay in bed
With bandages on his head,
He wondered what on Earth he'd said.
