These thousands were killed BY the

and by the polsons used In the makeup

Neither the bullets Of the Spaniards

did any havoc to the American soldier,

damage done by the frlghtful embalm.

The young fellows who offered their
lives to the American government, did
not for moment imagine that the
country for which they were fighting
would permit Beef Trust to furnish
them with poisoned ratlons.
But It did.
The soldiers trusted their country

The result was death, disease, broken

destroyed 30. 08S pounds Of meat, %
being UNIT for food: all Of witch
would have been sold In the city Of Chi.
cago. and for which the purchaser
would have paid hrst.class prices"
"From these nsures It ia vsrv evident
that inspection BY the city Of all food
produces Is Of untold value, not only
from Anancial but from sanitary
and hyglenlc standpoint"
