CRYSTALS Of Vitality Save Lives.


| About ten years ago Japanese re-
searcher, Takamine, in the laboratory
of Columbia university, made the dis
covery that a certain substance, Sc
creted by gland of the OK or sheep,
when injected into the blood Of other
animals, had the power of greatly in
creasing their blood pressure and con-
sequently their vitality. He called this
substance adrenalin and succeeded In
refining it to light yellow crystals.
When the suprarenal glands which Sc
crete this substance were removed by
an operation from the living animals,
they invariably died, showing that 1t
was necessary to the life Of the ami
mails. However, only small quantities
are needed by the animal, and hence
but little is secreted by the glands,
and then only in very weak condition.
being mixed with other substances.
The crystals are pure and have ex-
tremely great power. One part Of the
adrenalin dissolved in 100000 parts Of
water is strong and capable Of per-
forming miracles. In fact, one-half
thimbleful, or about that much, has
been used in hospitals all over the
country, time and time again, to en-
able man to pass crisis when his
natural strength would have failed
him. Hundreds Of men and women
can thank adrenalin for their lives.

The Very Best Make.

In the course of an after-dinneY
speech in praise OF woman, Samuel
Untermyer. the New York lawyer
said In Pittsburg:
"A commercial traveller remarked
the other day to a storekeeper:
Make yourself a Christmas pres
emit OF a cash register. 1t will keep
strict and accurate account of all you
receive and all you disburse. It will
show what you save and what YOU
squander, what In you spend foolish
~ and what you spend wisely, where
you should spread out and where you
should retrench, what you waste and
how you waste it
But said the storekeeper. I've
already got cash register which does
all that and more
Whose make is it?' asked the
salesman, frowning.

piled; and with a smile at once rev
erent and grateful he nodded toward

Makes for Smooth Existence.

MAKES JOT 0I1OOlu GRbStCHSCs
There is a good deal said about the
loss OF individuality, loss when real
which we all deplore, but man is
more likely to keep his individuality
with his life, If he follows In his mo.
tor the formulated lines Of traffic
rather than meet another man in his
motor on the wrong side of the road
If both men happened to be in a civic
parade there would be no loss of in
dividuality to the man who kept his
place behind instead of driving out
from his place In order to get farther
ahead Of the man behind him, or in
order to slip in ahead of the one
ahead of him. Keeping in line means
simple thing often, but it is one
Of the trifles that make for a perfect.
ly smooth existence.
There are seeming restrictions In
life that hamper, but there are great
many others that forward. It is easy
to understand the gains when compli
ance of purely mechanical sort-but
very necessary-has been made. By
reasoning from their analogy we may
find out to our advantage that there
are many others less tangible. a com.
pliance with which would do wonders
in making the world go round, and In
making ourselves the happiest and
most successful people

AUTOMOBILE AND GOOD ROADS
Farmer Who Bought Machine imme-
diateIy Starts to Make Improve
ments on Nearby Highways.
(By M. A. CovERDELL.)

"
Some months ago one Of our neigh
bors purchased good. substantial
automobile. He and another neighbor
drew an oak saw-log to the mill and
had material sawed for two good road
drags, the timbers being II feet in
length, one foot wide and three inches
thick
The edges that moved the dirt were
faced with pieces Of iron four inches
wide and three-eighths of an inch
thick.
After constructing this most effec-
tive implement for rOad-making our
neighbor hitched three horses to the
drag, climbed into 1t and proceeded
to drag the road Che lives at Cross
road, and how he does improve every
highway he traverses.
He makes frequent trips with his
drag to town. four miles away, and
already good effect OF his owning an
automobile is being observed and felt
on our roads, far and near
