Modest Claims Often Carry the Most
Conviction.

When Maxim, the famous gun inven-
tor. placed his gun before a committee
of Judges. he stated it's carrying power
to be much below what he felt sure the
gun would accomplish. The result Of
the trial was therefore a great surprise,
instead of disappointment. 1t is the
same with the manufacturers of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. They do not publicly boast
Of all this remedy will accomplish, but
prefer to let the users make the state
ments. What they do claim, is that It
will positively cure diarrhoea, dysen-
terry, pains in the stomach and bowels
and has never been known to fail. For
sale by all druggists.

SELECTS HIS OWN SAMPLES.
Food Commissioner Pays No Attention

pies of food to be analysed by hopeful
manufac turers who hope to get a com

commissioner saying that their foods
are all right, but the food commissioners
unloads the accumulated supply onto
the janitors about the building ana
goes about his way securing samples
from the groceries OF this and other
cities of the state.
The new law provides that the food
commissioner shall secure and nave
analysed samples of all the food pro-
ducts coming into the state or SOFA
In the state. The commissioner instead
of accepting the samples sent In by the
manufacturers Is securing his samples
from the grocery stores without allow
ing the store keeper to know what
the purpose is, or who is buying the
food.
The new food law is creating havoc
already in some of the markets of the
state Barrels of preservative powder
have been sold to meat markets
now absolutely useless as the preserVa-
tives are poisonous. Not enough Is put
in the meat usually to make people
sick but III taken in sufficient quaint
ties II would kill. Meat market men
have been using the powder to preserve
the meat. II being used especially IN
making sausage and Hamburger steaks
and large meat houses have been buy
ing 1t by the barrel, but under the new
law 1t is Illegal to mix this or any
other substance with the meat one
powder Is called meat -four and 1t is
used primarily because II soaks up
moisture In great amount and makes
the meat weigh more.
Under the new law the label on food
must not be misleading and must emu
merate the ingredients of the food. one
concern sent to- the food and dairy
commissioners office a sample label
for some molasses The label read,
Pure Louisiana Molasses," and In
enumerating the ingredients the label
read 40 per cent pure Louisiana mo-
lasses, 60 per cent pop corn syrup. The
manufacturer has been notified that to
make his label conform with the law
lie must SCRATCH OUT tuS uiS l1ou''
lana" or else leave out the go per cent
of corn syrup. Even IL the ingredients
are given on the label, IL the name OF
the food is misleading 1t is illegal.
"A manufacturer of jellies sent to the
commissioner glass OF jelly labeled
"Fine Fruit Currant Jelly" Another
label on the back of the glass said:
This jelly compound is composed of
apple juice and glucose, with frac-
ton OF / per cent Of vegetable color
and trace of acid phosphate" Under
the ruling OF the commissioner the la
bel is illegal The jelly Is not fine
fruit currant jelly" as shown by the
second label which shows there are no
currants in It, The second label is
Illegal also for the reason that the law
provides that the ingredients must be
named only and not the per cent of the
amount given. The law provides that
every food product in cans and pack
ages shall be labeled: This (naming
the substance) contains the following
ingredients and none other" and then
enumerate the ingredients.

who would be wronged by that kiss"
she said. '"rhey should be taught In
stead that a kiss Is thing holy in
itself. and to be given only to their
parents and brothers and sisters

mere men,
Miss Earle finally compromised by
permitting tho young man to quicker up
his lips, but not to touch her face with
them.
After rehearsal Miss Earle said: II
suppose you think I'm very queer. but
really I've seen so many girls lured on
to destruction by kissing that I've de-
cided to come out dead against 1t. A
man kisses girl for the first time and
1t means nothing to him. but it means

that he was a thief to save the wife
