WHAT cocA-coLA CONTAINS.

For the past several weeks we have
published In this paper letters from
analytical chemists showing what
COCA-COLA, the popular temperance
drink, contains and what It does not
contain.
No intelligent person can read these
letters from the leading chemists of
the country without being convinced
that COCA-C0LA Is what II claims to
be; a pure, harmless, delicious. re-
freshing, temperance drink. THE
COCA-COLA CO., Atlanta, Ca. will
gladly send free to any reader OF this
paper a booklet entitled 1.-THE Truth
About COCO-COLA," containing mum.
erous letters from analytical chem
lists showing the true composition OF
this great national drink. Below find
additional letter:

Mr. M. N. Nelin.
Rockford, Ills.
Dear Sirs:-In reply to your letter
OF July 9th, ] have this to say: In
our High School Chemistry Class. I
have had my pupils analyze Coco
COLA for the last two years. We
have never been able to find even a.
trace of alcohol, and we applied every
delicate test for It; neither did we
find any cocaine. AS to caffeine we
made cup of coffee and got better
test in the coffee than In the COCA
COLA.
According to our findings, pint for
pint, CoCA.CoLA Is less harmful than
strong tea or coffee, but neither Is
harmful II used In moderation.
Respectfully submitted,

partment.

An Organization Founded Re-
Gently to Keep from
Swearing.
FOUR CHARTER MEMBERS
A Fine Is Imposed for
Each Slip in
Language,
FOUR CHARTER MEMBERS
DOu you swear?

Dou you swear?
Would you like to break yourself of
the habit?
If Sc, why not join the Anti-Profan-
ity club. This is an organization
founded recently at the University of
Missouri for the sole purpose Of keep
ing it's members from swearing. The
members of the club believe it will
surpass in popularity the Affinity club,
which flourished here last year.
There are four charter members of
the society and more will be initiated
soon. The membership is secret.
Three departments are already repre-
scented. The pass word of the society
is one finger held in the air and waved
wildly. This is to warn members on
the narrow verge to be careful.
The founder of the club was for
merly adept in the use OF profane Ian
guage. He used it on every possible
occasion and sometimes Slipped"
slightly in the presence of ladies. In
fact he had vocabulary of the little
strong words" as Speaker Joseph G..
Cannon calls them, to fill small die
tionary. So he decided to reform.
He organized the Anti-Profanity club
with three other constant offenders, as
charter members. The constitution
provides that count shall be kept of
all the profane words used by the
members and at the end of the week
they shall be counted up. The member
having the most black marks against
him will be assessed 80 cents.
The founder of the organization has
out-stripped his competitors SO far,
that there seems to be no doubt con,
corning his supremacy in the use of
picturesque, descriptive profanity. One
member of the club, so far has clean
record.

PROFIT IN MISSOURI CORN
Valleys Of Northeast May Yield SIS to

Valleys Of Northeast May Yield IS to
rs Bushels an Acre.
The rich Missouri bottoms near
Keokuk rival the far-famed Valley of
the Nile in point of fertility. In its
latest issue the Delta Sun, published
at Alexandria, tells of ]. G. Wood
helping to husk three rows of corn
sixty rods long on the Winkleman farm
that measured twenty-four bushels
strong. This would indicate ninety
six bushels to the acre. The same
paper quotes Mr.. Wood as saying that
he thinks that after the corn shrinks
his whole crop will make from sixty
five to seventy-five bushels per acre.
At so cents a bushel this means from
$3.50 to $3.50 per acre for his sea-
sons work. OF all men, farmers cul-
tivating the fertile soil between the
Mississippi and Des Moines rivers
should be the last to demand change
of conditions.-Keokuk Ua.) Gate City.
