Sciatica Cured After Twenty Years
of Torture.

For more than twenty years Mr.. J. B.
Massey, of 1922 Clinton ST., Minneapolis,
Mimi, was tortured by sciatica. The
pain and suffering which he endured
during this time is beyond comprehen-
sion. Nothing gave him permanent re-
lief until he used Chamberlain Pain
Balm. One application of that liniment
relieved the pain and made sleep and
rest possible, and less than one bottle
has effected permanent cure. If
troubled with sciatica or rheumatism
why not try a 25-cent bottle of Pain
Balm and see for yourself how quickly
it relieves the pain. For sale by Stafrin

PROTECT PROPRIETARY MEDI-
CI\ES.

Did it ever occur to you that pro-
prietary medicines are a blessing to
mankind generally? The good ones
have long continued sale; the poor
ones have short life and soon leave
the market.
1t we had to depend entirely upon
physicians and druggists it would be
expensive and very inconvenient at
times. especially in the country and
at night when neither could be con-
veniently reached. For nearly 40
years Boschee's German Syrup has
been used in many families and
thousands Of lives have been saved
by its use, when it was impossible to
reach q physician. German syrup is
the best household remedy for coughs,
colds. throat and lung trouble. It

An Early BetrOfhal.

In the early days of California the
daughters of the Lugos were sought in
marriage by the best families Of the
state. 1t was a boast that they were
even courted in the cradle, as when the
young officer Colonel Ignacio Vallejo,
being in San Luis Obispo on the occa-
sion Of the birth of daughter to the
Lugos, asked her father for the hand
Of the day old baby, provided when the
time came to fulfill the contract the
senorita should be willing. This seem
ingly absurd betrothal took place. The
child grew up to be an intelligent as
well as attractive young woman, mar
ried her betrothed and became the
mother Of many children, among them
Mariana Guadalupe Vallejo.

ANALYZiNG MILK.
The Process In Neither DAbacult Nor
Complicated

The Process In Neither Dinacult Nor
Complicated
The chemical analysis Of milk is not
complicated nor difficult First the
chemist weighs small dish, cup or
saucer and carefully notes down the
results In ounces, grains and fractions
Of grains. Next he pours in some milk
to be analysed and again carefully
notes down the result. By subtractins
the weight of the dish from that OF
both the weight of the milk is found
and recorded. Next the receptacle is
placed over a steam jet, which eyapo-
rates the water Of the milk, leaving
only the residue or Solids" Again the
dish and its contents are weighed, and
by simple calculation the percentage
of solids is ascertained.
The solids of the milk have been
found by innumerable analyses to
average about Is per cent, and while
the fat varies In milk from different
cows the solids left after extracting
the fat are found to be very constant
quantity, seldom falling below 10 per
cent or over IA. This gives the chem
list positive basis for his calculations
and enables him to state with great
certainty whether or not the milk has
been Watered. 4
The fat or Oil in milk is determined
by dissolying 1t by means Of ether, the
residue remaining after such test be
ing termed solids other than fat
The average fat or oil found i'll milk
from cows ia per cent, and any
amount less than 3 per cent indicates
almost to a certainty that the milk has
been SKINNED. If analysis shows !;
decrease Of fat it indicates that tht
milk has been watered, while if fats
and other solids together are low yol
may infer that the SKINNER has done
| its worst.
