Barrel Racing on leo.

An exciting form of winter sport In
which Canadian boys excel is barrel
racing on the ice. Ordinary barrels.
with their heads removed, are placed
at regular intervals along the race
course for about quarter of mile
Then at a given signal all the boys
skate for the first barrel. Many reach
it together and as each skater must
crawl through all the barrels in Or
der to win it is to be imagined that
there Is quite scramble for first turn.
Sometimes Il barrel wheels completely
around while the boy is working his
way through it. and when he comes
out he is so confused that he skates
off in the wrong direction. Usually
the laugh Of the spectators makes him
realize his blUnder, and he quickly
turns about ard tries to make up for
lost time. 1t is quite an exciting sport
and an interesting one also for the
spectator. as the boys and barrels bob
about in the most amusing fashion,

ARTHUR A. CURME

Claims to Hold the Record
Along This Line in the
City of Richmond.
DOES REMARKABLE WORK..
HE is NOT ONLY THE FASTEST
TYPEWRITER IN THE CITY, BUT
ALSO THE MOST SPEEDY STEM.
OGRAPHER.

Arthur Curme, circuit court report
of the city.
Mr. Curme took a Stenographic rec.
ord of the testimony of witnesses sum-
moneG before the grand jury in the
Verna Green case. Mr. Curme was
particularly anxious to have this tes-
timony Transcribed into typewriter
form by the first of this week. so Sat-
urday morning he began his task
In Just ten and one-half hours he
transcribed from his shorthand notes.
no one debating to him, into typewrit-
ten form twenty-eight thousand words
which filled eighty-four foolscap pag-
es. In other words Mr.. Curme in $50
minutes wrote twentyeigh thousand
words on his typewriter. This is an
average of about forty-five words per
minute, a remarkable record when it
is considered that Mr.. CuTme wrote
from his shorthand notes.
While transcribing this testimony
is thought to be unexcelled by any
stenographer in the city. In one hours
time while transcribing the Green tes-
timony Mr.. Curme wrote twelve pages
consisting of four thousand words. an
average of one page every five min
utes or an average of sixty-six words
per minute. OF course he was not able
to keep this lightning speed up for ten
and one-half consecutive hours
Mr. Curme is not only the fastest
typewriter operator in the city but
without doubt is the most skilful short
hand expert. In the circuit court
strangers watch his work with the
keenest admiration. Mr.. Curme can
take any statements made by At
torney Henry l. Johnson. well known
as a remarkably fast talker, with
ease.

PRICES OF BUTTER
MAKE OLEO DEMAND
State Food and Drug Commits
sioner Calls Attention to
The Situation.
HE DEFENDS SUBSTITUTES.
SAYS AN ARTICLE AS PALATA-
BILE AS BUTTER AND HEALTH
Full CAN BE BOUGHT FOR
HALF THE PRICE.

II. i. Barnard, state pure food and
drug commissioner, says that the
present high prices of butter, lard and
other fats used in cooking are bound
TO product an increased demand for
oleomargarine and similar articles.
Mr.. Barnard says that useful foods OF
this character are being condemned,
although they are cheap, palatable
and wholesome, but they never come
into use because OF the prejudice
against them
"One can buy an article as palata-
is but willing to ask for oleOmargar-
inc" said Mr.. Barnard. The high
price demanded for butter is already
increasing the demand for 'Oleo.' The
same is true of cotton seed oil AS a
cooking oil instead of lard, this oil
is just as cheap, nutritious and as pal
atable as olive oil and as meritorious
when sold under its real name. The
extremely high price Of flour will un.
doubleday cause increased consumr-
ton of cornmeal and other products,
a condition not at all undesirable, as
cornmeal contains more fat and less
nitrogen than wheat flour. This
makes it a better winter food than u
summer food.
"Oleomargarine is made by cutting
up the choice fat of a healthy cattle
and heating it until the clear fat sep
arates and rises to the top OF the het-
tie. 1t is then drawn off, cooled and
placed under pressure. The more
liquid oil, which is called oleO stock,
runs off, leaving behind solid prod
uct known as beef stearine. The oleO
oil is then churned with milk, some
times mixed with a small quantity OF
butter to impart a more characteristic
butter flavor, sailed and made up into
marketable form. Every step of the
process is conducted with the great
est cleanliness. No rancid fat can be
used, nor is it possible to work in un-
sound material. The product has re-
ceived the Endorsement of chemists

est doubt of it's whOlesomeness and
value as a food product. And yet,
there exists today, more than twenty
five years after it's Introduction, such
deep-rooted prejudice against it That
it rarely finds it's way TO the table i'll
it's true character. a social oppro-
brium rests upon it and rare is tho
man who will acknowledge its use or
dare offer it as a food to the guest,
This feeling is fostered and perpet-
uated by the fact that state after
state and finally the Federal Govern
ment has passed laws to restrict its
manufacture and sale. But while
state legislatures have insisted that
oleomargarine shall not be sold unless
colored pink they have inconsistency

the chief ingredients OF DIR. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription: "A remedy which
invariably acts as uterine invigorator
and always favors a condition which
makes for normal activity of the entire
reproductive system, cannot fail to be
of great usefulness and of the utmost
importance to the general practitioner
of medicine"
rHelonias more fully answers the
above purposes than any other drug

treatment of diseases peculiar to women
it is seldom that a case is seen which
does not present some indication for
this remedial agent"
The following are among the lead
ing indications for Helonias: Pain or
aching in the back. with leucorrhea;
atomic weak conditions of the repro
ductive organs of women, mental de-
preston and irritability, associated with
chronic diseases OF the reproductive
organs OF women, constant sensation OF
heat in the region of the kidneys:
y
weakened condition OF the reproductive
system; amenorrhea, arising from or
accompanying an abnormal condition
OF the digestive organs and an anemic
