1t comes from the breakfast delica.
cics made out of Gamer cows ami
trichina pork.
The Trust sausage Is one of the won.
dcrs of creation.
1t is made out Of the cheapest meat
and the trimming of Gamers, lumpy-
jaw cattle and dead swine.
After being thoroughly mixed with
Il horrible connection known to the
trade us potato flour, this chopped.
stamped, crushed and chemically treat.
ell meat is stuffed into the frequently
diseased CUTS of dead animals aud II
sold to the public us sausage.
Despite the chemicals compounded
with the meat to make 1t smell
natural" both the compound itself,
as well us the casing" us the gut Is
now called, IRE frequently the abode
OF micrO.organlsms.
1t is these heterogeneous that
cause appendicitis.
The word appendicitis means an In.
Illumination of tho verinlfOrm appendix,
which lies in the lower right hand cor
ner of the abdomen.
The vermiform appendix Is sack
attached to the intestine.
1t Is into this resting place that the
microbes crawl and cause trouble.
The real trlchina microbc, which Is
very abundant In pork, and for which
10 search Is made by the Beef Trust,
eats through nll the human intestines,
and, playing no fav0rites, Is always
fatal.
But the bad meat mlcrobe, which
causes appendicitis, has not strength
enough to bore through the intestlnes.
1t merely crawls into the first and
only stopping place In the bowels--the
vcrmiform appendix--and there 1t
works away until 1t starts intamma.
tiOn.
When the first physicians began to
realize the Geological Importance Of
the appendix In Intestinal intiamma'
ton, 1t was thought that seeds or 9th
or offending material became lodged
therein, but many operations soon
proved the contrary, for Outlines no
foreign bodies were found In 1t, and
other abdominal operations often show
cd collections In the appendix that had
caused no trouble.
Most OF the best physicians and the
ablcst surgeons are now convinced that
appendicitis Is caused by bad meat.
The disease, singularly enough, was
never heard of until Beef Trust meth
DDS began to prevail In this country
and now 1t Is to DO found whereve!
Beef Trust products have a SALE.
According to the United States cen
sus. 5,il1 persons died from appendi
citls In 1900. The disease was not even
mentioned In the United States census
report of 1S0O--ten years befOre--be
cause there were no cases and nc
deaths. How Is that for tho work o;
the Beef Trust!

Now the city inspection has beer
stopped und that 1t was always thu
habit to use the carcases Of cancerOu'
or lumpy jawed cattle after the can
GERS were cut out, the public IL prob
ably getting a fuller dose Of lumpy
jawed cattle for food than ever. o.
the very day that the city discontinued
Its inspection and condemnation, thu
Commissioner Of Health OF Chicago IL
sued the following remarkable instruc
lions In his bulletin Of December 80
1906:
"rhe Commissioner has issued tin
following instructions to the chief In
spector at the Union Stock Yards:
"'While actinomycosis Is usual!
confined to the head, and may be salt
In one sense to be a localized disease
and while some inspectors condemn
only the part involved, l believe 1t ]
safest and most practicable to condemn
the entire carcass wherever the actl
nomycOtic abscess opens into tn
mouth, pharynx, larynx or any part o
the digestive or respiratory tract; q
when the Emphatic glands are invOl\
ed; or where there are actin0mycotl
tumors In the lungs; or when the Il
siOns have become generalized, sine
generalization In actinOmycOsls appear
to run a very atypic course, maxim
the detection Of all fOci inside til
muscle very difficult; therefore, the Ell
tire carcass Is to be condemned.
"In cases where the actin0mycotI
LESSONS are positively localized, the II
fected part may be cut away aud til
remains of the carcass used.
"'rhese instructions apply only I
"lumpy jaw" There may be othe
reasons why you should want to COZ

ter OF Judgment for you and your mel
But you should never hesitate to col

not fit for human food"
