their accuracy. Statistics that are i'm
perfectly gathered or that are cooked

FAVOR BUTTERMILK
DEMAND FOR TT IS INCREASING AND THIS SEASON LARGER

Cooling and Nutritious

Refreshing Qualities Make It Popular In Hot Weather-Sold In Restaur-
 ants and Saloons.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1909-07-13

Refreshing Qualities Make It Popular
 ants and Saloons.
 Buttermilk as a drink is becoming more and more popular, and particu- larly in the hot weather is sold in ever
 increasing quantities. Not only dairy restaudants and at soda fountains, but
 hotels, cafes and saloons are now gen.
 orally carrying buttermilk to accom-
 modate the ever growing demand for
 it. The sale of buttermilk this sum-
 mer in Bridgeport has been particular
 ly large. and it may be had in almost
 any restaurant or saloon
 l. While opinions differ as to the spe- cific nutritive value of buttermilk, it
 is generally conceded to be a. health
 full drink. But what makes it partic-
 ularly popular in the hot season is that it is a most cooling and thirst Quench-
 ing drink.
 Within the last year or two. it has become an uncommonly large factor with milk dealers during the summer season SaloonkeeperS generally are
 doing a big trade in buttermilk. They buy the best that can be had, paying a penny or two a quart more for 1t
 than most other retailers. and sell 1t for five cents for a medium sized
 glass. Many men who are moderate drinkers of beer or whiskey are said
 to have given up the use ofathose bev- erages and to be using buttermilk in stead for their favorite regular tipple this summer. Saloonkeepers and res taurant proprietors have noticed this and commented upon it, and the men themselves say that they feel better
 and perspire less freely when on the buttern1ilk list than when they drink beer, even though the latter is admit tedly cooling and refreshing. The but- termilk. however. is found to be even more so and has the additional ad- vantage of being an acknowledged stomach tonic and to act favorably upon other organs of the body.

If a white mayonnaise is wanted, select white shelled eggs which have paIer yellow yolks than the dark ones, and use lemon juice instead of vinegar for aeidifying it. Whipped cream folded in at the last moment improves mayonnaise for most pur- poses.
 A floor covering of good linoleum should hold it's own for at least five years. It needs no soap, ammonia or any strong cleansing agent. A sim pie wiping with a cloth, just moist with warm water, is all that is need ed.
 A good carpet cleaner is made by using one cup of alcohol, one cup of Ammonia, one half cup of salt, one half bar of white soap and a gallon of water. Shave the soap and add it to the hot water. Then stir in the other ingredients. Apply with soft scrubbing brush.

CLEARS THE COMPLEXION

Pimples, Rash, Eruptions, Etc, Quick ly Eradicated by New Skin Rem

1y Eradicated by New Skin Rem
 edy.
 Ever since it's discovery, poslam, the new skin remedy has, in its extraordinary accomplishments, ex- ceeded the most sanguine expectations of the eminent specialist who gave it to the world. It has cured thousands of cases of eczema and eradicated fac ial and other disfigurements of years standing. The terrible itching at tending eczema is stopped with the first application, giving proof of it's curative properties at the very out set.
 In less serious skin affections, such as pimples, rash, herpes, blackheads, acne. barher's itch. etc, results show after an overnight application, only small quantity being required to ef- feet cure. Those who use poslam for these minor. skin troubles can now avail themselves of the special 50-cent package, recently adopted to meet such needs. Both the 50-cent package and the regular g jar may be obtain ed in Bridgeport at Jennie Hamilton's Pharmacy and other leading drug stores.
 Samples for experimental purposes may be had free of charge by writing direct to the Emergency Laboratories, 32 West Twenty-fifth Street, New York City.

Clearly. the Speaker has not given his real reasons. the principal one of which evidently was desire to pack the House part of the committee against the House bill. Possibly, also, a personal grudge against MT. Hill ex-
