Ten Doctors
Said He Would Die

"1n 1903 we wrote you regard
ing my husband, who was suf-
fering from heart trouble. He
was superanuated by the North
Georgian Conference. Ten doc
tors at different times said he
would die. You advised DR..
Miles Heart Remedy and Re
storative Nervine; we did as
advised, and improvement was
apparent from the very first. He
recovered and the Conference in
1904 gave him a charge. He
never felt better, although he
has very heavy work and does
a great deal of camp meeting
work. I am SO glad we tool
your advice and gave him the
medicine, and feel that l ought
to let you know Of the wonder
full good results from its use"
MRS. T. S. EDWARDS,
Miner, Ga.
This proves what DR.. Miles
Heart Remedy will do. Get a
bottle from your druggist and
take it according to directions.
1t does not matter whether your
heart is merely weak, or you
have organic trouble, if it does
not benefit you take the empty
bottle to your druggist and get
your money back.

COLORS The HENS
Chicago University Professor
Invents Maroon Dye for
Plumage.
EGGS OF SAME HUE, TOO
Students Are EIated at Prospect OF
a New Mascot for the Football
Eleven.

University of Chicago students fig
ured out the other day some of the
uses for "colored to order hens and
eggs and hailed with joy the announce
ment of DR.. Oscar Riddle of the 20
ology department that by feeding hens
dyes mixed in their corn he can change
the color of the hens themselves and
of the eggs they produce.
Still greater exultation prevailed
when it was learned that maroon as n
color may be made a success along
the lines mapped out in the recent dis
patch from Cornell university. Pro-
fessors from Charles o. Whitman,
head of the zoology department. down
called the results of DR.. Riddles ex-
periments a great contribution to sci
ence.
Maroon Ideas of Students.
The students consider the color dis
covery an even greater contribution to
college spirit and hope that Professor
Riddle will be made head of a specially
created egg coloring" department with
a liberal endowment
Here are some Of the advantages
which the students see are certain to
result:
Maroon eggs and those of the color
of visiting college opponents would be
just the thing at purity banquets" be-
fore big football games.
On the gridiron a maroon hen GER
tainly would prove an excellent mas
cot and drive the moleskin heroes to
feats Of daring
maroon egg with every registra-
ton will increase the student enroll
ment at the university.
Maroon eggs not so fresh would come
in handy, it is thought, on the base
ball field and on Mandel hall stage TO
be used at every bad play.
Riddle Tells of His Hopes.
Eyes, it is possible to change the
color Of a hens feathers and the color
of the egg it lays by means of dyes in
food" said Professor Riddle when told
of the Cornell experiments. Il have
been working along these lines and
have had considerable success.
1--WE have made these experiments
for the last three years, and we find
that eggs may be colored any tint we
desire simply by placing dye in the
food which we give the hen. For in
stance, If we want a purple egg we
give the hen some purple dye in the
cornmeal. The hen eats this, and
day or two later when she lays an egg
we find n purple ring around the outer
edge of the yolk. If we keep feeding
her purple dye in the course of Il week
the yolk becomes u deep purple.
so far my experiments have not re-
suited in producing n maroon colored
shell, but we shall come TO that before
long. l hope"
DR.. Riddle asserts that he is the first
to conduct these experiments which re-
suited in the colored egg discovery,
though the same ones have since been
conducted in other university labora-
tories.
