Rye Bread in Diabetic Diet.

1t has been long since we first
heard that potatoes were less
harmful to diabetic patients than
wheat bread. Another authority
has suggested oatmeal as the prin-
cipal carbohydrate to be used in
such affected person. The latest
contribution to this diet list is rye
bread. Black rye bread or pumper-
nickel is hugely recommended by
Lidwell, he having found that the
sugar is very much diminished I'M
der this diet. The patient in
creases in weight and feels much
better.
A comparative study of potatoes,
oatmeal and rye bread is now in
order to verify these conclusions
and to determine the relative value
of each of these starchy foods.

Humors of a Druggists Life.

Please give me a bottle of hair

man in the Dreiss drug store yes
terday.
Herman Dreiss, who was stand

girl repeat her order several times,
then learned that the woman want
ed a bottle of hair remover.
This is only one Of the many
amusing incidents that fall to the
lot of a druggist in the course of a
days business. In speaking of
the troubles of a druggist, Mr..
Dreiss said,
We have many funny things
happen If the.way of calls which
put us up a tree. For instance, a
person came in short while ago
and asked for one ounce of peculiar
ointment She meant to say,
'rnercurial ointment. Another
wanted happy kick when she
meant 'ipecac.' Still another sent
a note with the following request:
Please send me something for
information of the bladder, or
touch of the gravel.

IT IS not often that the kiss OF
an innocent babe causes a fight,
but this is what happened in the
court room at Houston a few days
ago. A writ of habeas corpus had
been sued out by a man for the
custody of his wife and two chill
dren, whom, he claimed were be-
ing illegally restrained of their
liberty by the wife's father. The
little tot spied its arnt i'll the court
room and toddled across to her and
was kissed and taken onto her
lap. This started the row among
the women and the men soon join
ed in the melee. But for timely in
reference, serious trouble would
have resulted.

wonder to the editorial association

A local paper is a public iustitu-
ton when it comes to boosting
everything in town for nothing.
1t must advertise every society,
semi-public entertainment that col
lect cash at the door. and any other
old thing. 1t advertises the real
estate man when it mentions his
sales, the hotel in chronicling
arrivals and the doctor in mention

are expected, for verify the paper
belongs to the public and it is only
doing its duty. All this changes,
however, when it comes to paying
expenses-then a newspaper is a
strictly private affair. - Corpus
