A WINNING START.
A Perfectly Digested Breakfast Makes
Nerve Force For the Day.

Everything goes wrong II the

son.,
A bright lady teacher found this
to be true, even of an ordinary light
breakfast Of eggs and toast. She
says:
1.-TWO years ago I contracted 2
very annoying form OF indigestion.
My stomach was in such condition
that simple breakfast Of fruit, toast
and egg gave me great distress.
81 was slow to believe that trouble
could come from such simple diet,
but finally had to give It. up, and
found a great change upon a cup OF
hot Postum and Grape-Nuts with
cream, for my morning meal. For
more than a year have held to this
course. and have not suffered except
when injudiciously varying my diet.
81 have been teacher for severai
wears and find that my easily digest
ed breakfast means a saving OF ner-
yous force for the entire day. MY
gain Of ten pounds in weight also
causes me to want to testify to the.
value of Grape-Nuts.

In its stomach, he cut 1t open. CAS-
I cut it open there was mighty rush
and a tapping Of wings, and away
flew a wild duck; and when looked
inside. there was a nest with four

High Prices For Fish.

AIN these days." said hsh dealer,
"people pay for fish luxuries prices
that they never used to dream of.
The costliest fish in this market now
is English sole, which sells for
sixty cents a pound, but there is
demand for it at that price. Striped
bass brings as much as fifty cents

such enterprises always i'm
prove conditions; they are ii
public convenience in the same
class with water works, electric
lights and telephones, and do
more in advertising and building
up property values than either
of these necessities. TIE Col
lege and Starkville con- nunities
are dependent on each other 10 a
great extent. The College is
dependent for trading facility,
churches, sabbath school, pub-
lie schools and other public utili-
ties; the College SHOULD be of
use TO the StarkviIle community
by giving it an increased intel
lectual standing, providing en-
tertainme1t, and high-class en-
yironment, as we'll as its trade.
The two communities are inter
linked socially; neither could
prosper so we'll without the
other; they are component
parts Of ape community and
should be held together as such.
The intervening distance be
tween the two communities is
too great for walking. and the
College community is at great
expense to maintain conveyance
and the Starkville merchants
delivery facilities. The distance
prevents easy communication
and has been the cause of the
fostering by the College Of busi- |
ness enterprises, such as book |
stores, student supply stores,
shoe stores. cigar and cOnfec-
tionary stands, and barber shop;
these would not be necessary |
with easy communication and |
fve-cent fares. Unless some |
better means of communication |
is provided it will finally be
necessary to foster a cOmmissary |

Dr.. HESS POULTRY
PAN-A -CE-A
Is the Scientific Compound
for Poultry.

Poultry Paa-a-ce-a cures diseases
and makes hens lay
It has special merit peculiar to
itself; take no Poultry Food or
Poultry Powder as a substitute.
POULTRY PAN-A-CE-A is not
made from stock formula, but
an actual and practical knowledge
Of every condition and disease that
fowls fall heir to.
We have, in addition to our i'm
mense laboratory, a large poultry
hospital in which we are continual
ly experimenting on large scale.
POULTRY PAN-A-CE-A is the
result Of this extensive scientific re-
search
PAN-A-CE-A not only cures and
insures immunity from disease, but
it is a digestive tonic that makes
poultry grow healthy and strong,
and keeps them so.
It develops bone, muscle and
feathers. 1t makes poultry raising
more profitable
Chicks very frequently become
exhausted from rapid growth of
feathers, which is characterized by
debility, general i'll condition and
leg weakness. The digestive tonics
of DR. HESS POULTRY PAN
A-CE-A work wonders in these
cases.
PAN-A-CE-A is a boon to poul-
raising It is eqnally good for
chickens. turkeys, ducks and geese.
PAN-A-CE-A is a guaranteed
egg producer. 1t is not stimuli
ant but a nutritious tonic, which
produces eggs in natures way.
In winter you keep hens warm,
and feed PAN-A-cE-A; if you
don't get more eggs and lots more,
return the empty package and your
money will be refunded
It is fed with other foods and en-
ables the system to appropriate egg
making material from the stuff fed.
POULTRY PAN-A-CE-A cures
diseases after they are once estab
lished in the flock.
