Presbyterian Church Items.

Our fifteenth anniversary was observed last Sunday. Notwith- standing the storm, goodly num- Der answered to the roll call at morning service and more at the well attenked evening one.
 Cecil Schulz read a good paper on history of the Sunday School. Glenn Haffly showed what had been done by the Christian En- deavor society. Mrs. Pulliam gave an excellent history of the Church. The pastor, having been identified with the church from few months after its organization to the pres ent time, gave some interesting and sometimes amusing reminis- cences.
 The services were made more pleasing by a large chorus choir.
 The annual congregational meet ing occurred Monday evening. The house was filled. Reports from the different departments were read, and a new board of trustees and missionary treasurer elected. The reports disclosed the Church and Sunday School to be in excellent condition and starting new year under favora- ble conditions.

The state superintendent Of public

superintendent Of the city schools in
the state notifying them that the law
plainly requires the use Of the books

HOW MANY OF US?
Fail to Select Food Nature Demands
to Ward OF Ailments.

A KY. lady, speaking about food,
says: 81 was accustomed to eating
all kinds of ordinary food until, for
some reason, indigestion and V
prostration set in.
after / had run down seriously
my attention was called to the neces-
sity of some change in my diet, and l
discontinued my ordinary breakfast
and began using Grape-Nuts witt a
good quantity Of rich cream.
"In a few days my condition
changed il @ remarkable way, and /
began to have a strength that I had
never been possessed Of before, a
vigor Of body and q poise of mind
that amazed me. 1t was entirely new
in my experience.
my former attacks Of indigestion
had been accompanied by heat flashes,
and many times MY condition vas
distressing with blind spells of dizzi-
ness, rush of blood to the head and
neuralgia pains in the chest.
"Since using Grape-Nuts alone for
breakfast I have been free from these
troubles. except at times when l have
INDUCED in rich, greasy foods in
quantity, then l would be warned by
a pain under the left shoulder blade,
and unless I needed the warning the
old trouble would come back, but
when ! finally got to know where
these troubles originated l returned
to my Grape-Nuts and cream and tho
pain and disturbance left very qu.ck-
ly.
II am now in prime health as a
result Of my use of Grape-Nuts."

The Age of Lead.

We are wont to speak of this era
as the "age Of iron," and there is NO
gainsaying that, industrially speak
Ing, iron is a precious metal"
Nevertheless, few people realize
how useful, if not absolutely neces-
sary, to modern civilization, is that
other metal, lead. Soft, yielding,
p1iable. it is not much like its sister
metal, but those Distinguishing uuali-
ties are what give it such q prominent
place in the arts and industries.
Modern plumbing, requiring many
turnings and tw;stin.s. M. wi%lal
tight joints, would be almost inipos-
sible without lead pipe. The great
est civilizing agent in the world--the
printing arts absolutely dependent
on lead. Hand-set type, linotype
"slugs,' monotype type-all ara
made OF compositions OF which lead
Is the chief coniponent-to say moth
ing of the bearings in the presses as
we'll as all other kinds of machinery
in which "babbitt" metal is used.
Solder Is another lead product
what a field of usefulness that one
form opens up.
Then there Is the most i'm portant
use Of all to which lead Is put-paiEt,
that necessary material which keeps
u houses looking pretty - inside
and out--aEd preserves them from
decay.
How many OF us thank metallic lead
for the comforts of paint? Yet the
best house paint is nothing but me-
talic lead eorroded by acid to q white
powder known as white lead" Of
course, there ale many limitations Of
white lea6." some of which are sold
as white lead and some which are
offered by the name of ready-pre-
pared paint under the familiar pre-
tense that they are "just as good as
white led. But all good paint is
made Of the metal, lead, corroded and
ground to a fine white powder and
mixed with linseed oil.
White lead is also used in the coat
ing of fine Oil cloths and for many
purposes besides paint.
Red lead" is another product Of
metallic lead and is what is known as
an oxide of lead, being produced by
burning the metal. Red lead is the
best paint known to preserve iron,
steel or tin, and is used largely in
painting metal structures, such as
skyscraper skeletons, mills and
bridges.
There are many othe> products OF
the metal lead, such as litharge.
orange mineral, etc, which are es-
sential D many Of the arts in which
we never imagine that lead would be
of the least use.
Verify, we live in az age of lead

SALT FOR

At a meeting of the Kansas Poultry
Association MI. E. Harrington said:
This fall Mrs. Harrington discovered
that the cholera had appeared among
her chickens. l had heard somewhere
that there is nothing to beat salt as
a disinfectant. 7 had the hired man
clean the henhouse as clean as he
could, wash it out thoroughly with
just as strong brine as he could make,
and fill every crack and crevice with
the brine. He did so, and we havenA
lost a hen since. 1 tried the same
thing on my hogs when the cholera
broke out among them, and l am sat
isfied that l saved a ldt of them and
prevented a further spread of the dis
ease"

suits of extensive tests seem to show
that fall spraying with sulphur washes
Is safe upon harder varieties of fruit

ing, SO far as scale destruction is con-
cerned. Some Of the washes listed
