Drinking Habit

sometimes, yes, very often, brings misery and misfortune into what was once happy homes. And it's queer that when once 'stung" they don't seem to care how things go on at home, so long as they can get the diabolical drink when they THINK they need it. Of-course they only THINK they need it, but the reader of this ad must remember We are telling of intoxicating and under mining health drinks. Oh me, oh my, don't think we mean nice tast- ing tea, coffee, cocoa ora buttermilk. No, sirree, when our drinks are used you feel fine, look strong aud robust, feel cheerful, delighted to meet your friends in your happy home and whole lot of other pleasufable eX- periences that spring up every hour in the day at home where nothing but our tea, coffee, cocoa and butter milk is the sole beverage. To be sure you never know what taste of pudding is until you try il. and it's the same with our nice tasting tea and coffee. You won't know how much better it is than what the other fellow sells until you try some. That's the time you'll be d-e- l-i-g-h-t-e-d and if you don't think so try it once. Send the little boy after some. We are giving marbles, base balls and bats away this week at

DIR. TALKS OF FOOD
Pres. of Board of Health.

What shall eat?" is the daily in
quiry the physician is met with. |
do not hesitate to say that in my
judgment large percentage of dis
ease is caused by poorly selected and
improperly prepared food My per-
sonal experience with the fully-cooked
food, known as Grape-Nuts, enables
me to speak freely of its merits.
From overwork | suffered several
years with malnutrition, palpitation
of the heart and loss of sleep. Last
summer / was led to experiment per-
sonally with the new food, which
used in conjunction with good rich
cows milk. In a short time after ]
commenced its use the disagreeable
symptoms disappeared, my hearts ac-
ton became steady and normal, the
functions of the stomach were prop
erly carried out, and again slept as
soundly and as we'll as in my youth.
II look upon Grape-Nuts as a per-
feet food, and no one can gainsay but
that it has most prominent place in
rational, scientific system of feed
ing. Any one who uses this food will
soon be convinced of the soundness
OF the principle upon which it is man
ufactured and may thereby know the
facts as to its true worth" Read

For Collecting Mercury.

Mercury spilled on a table or foo:
is somewhat hard to collect, unless
special precautions are taken, owing
to it's tendency to divide into small
globules, which roll away at the
slightest touch. If a wet ring is made
around the spilled mercury by the aid
of a wash bottle or other similar
means, it will be found that the glob-
ules of mercury cannot cross the ring;
the mercury can then be collected in
a small shovel made from piece OF
thin card, or even an ordinary en-
velope.

Topography of the Air.

This is not such contradiction in
terms as it may seem. Recent explo-
ration of the atmosphere has revealed
an astonishing definiteness of ar
rangement in its layers, although of
course the details are continually
changing. Recently Captain G. H.
Ley, in England, has directed his stu
dies of floating balloons to solution
of the question of the influence of the
topography of the earth's surface on
the state of the air above it. He
finds, among other things, that the
disturbances produced by hills and
valleys are transmitted to an unex-
pectedly great elevation, affecting
the lower and middle strata through
out. A general effect noticed is that
the velocity of the wind, or of cur
rent of air, is increased over a hill
and diminished over valley. He
thinks that similar observations. gem
Nerally distributed, would furnish us
with real topography of the air.

A I,nnneIed Canal.

A new canal to connect the River
Rhone with the port of Marseilles will
pass through a tunnel four and a
quarter miles long. The tunnel will
be seventy-two feet broad and forty
six feet high. The quantity of mate
rial to be removed in constructing
this tunnel is double that removed in
the construction of the Simplon. The
difference arises fyom the great width
and heighth of the canal tunnel. The
time required for digging it is seven
or eight years. The entire canal will
cost SIS, 100000.

RECLAIMED missouri Lands.

In the eleven counties of Southeast

worthless before drainage are now
worth from $35 to $50 an acre.

diseased portion of the lung is re-
