REAL MERIT HAS MADE
BONDS LIVER PILLS

a household word through the South.
We have spared neither time nor
money in perfecting BONDS PILLS
for the cure of Headaches, Bilious
ness, Constipation, Malaria, and sim
liar ills. MERIT was our chief object
Not how cheap" but how good we
could make them
The extraordinary success of
BONDS PILLS is due solely to their
MERIT, not to loud and misleading
claims of CURING EVERYTHING

There is no difference in area be.
tween one square foot and one foot
square, though there may be a differ.
ence in the shape and dimensions of
the surfaces. For instance, one square
foot may be inclosed by a circular
line, a heXagon, a triangle or a rec
tangle. One foot square is an area
of fixed form, the four sides being
equal and the four angles all right
angles.

Kahanamoku's Finger
GobbIed by Big Eel

NEW YORK, Jan. a thrilling
story of how Duke Kahanamoku, the
Hawaiian world champion swimmer
and winner of aquatic honors at Stock
holm, saved his life but lost an index
finger, in a desperate battle under water
with giant eel, is related today in a
special Honolulu dispatch to the Herald
The battle occurred Saturday at the
Dukes" practice grounds near Homo
lulu. The expert swimmer killed the
eel. but not before the monster had
nipped off the foreiiinger o. his right
rand. The loss may impair his SWIM
ming powers permanently.
Cries from persons on shore warned
other swimmers that something was
wrong with the champion and they
looked about for him but Kahanamoku
had disappeared. Suddenly there was
frenzied churning of water over
spot where the depth was ten feet and
one leg of the swimmer was thrust
above the surface desperatel wig
wagging for help. Then the leg was
dragged beneath the water again and
the churning recommended.
Finally Kahanamoku shot to the sur
face, exhausted and then sank again.
Friends dived for him and rushed him
to shore where he was revived while
other swimmers captured the body of
the eel which the duke had choked to
death with his hands. The eel was the
largest ever seen in Hawaiian waters.

We have a corking good pitching staff,
and that sure does count in the long

pitchers last season, because the boys

Exceptionally good defensive work by

didn't KNOW Il
Was LOADED;
TWO Hurt

Claiming that they didn't know it
was loaded, Joe Fernandez and Joe
SouZa today find themselves swathed
in bandages and occupying ward
st the Queens hospital as a result
of a premature explosion of a giant
powder cartridge on the upper slopes
of Punchbowl early this morning.
The story as related by the lads
to Captain Baker of the police, who
took charge Of the injured youngsters,
was to the effect that they had been
prowling around in a newly construct
ed street. Gathering up fragments
of rock, they came across one piece
in which was imbedded percussion
cap.
With the aid of knife, Fernandez
had about succeeded in prying the
cap from the stone when, without
warning, it exploded, sending bits OF
rock in every direction. Some of the
material was forced into the face of
each boy.

HEN FRUIT IS
INVESTIGATED
BY Department

The United States department OF
agriculture has put handkerchief to
its nose, figuratiyely, to investigate
the three main classes of hen eggs
used in the country eating, cooking
and throwing eggs. The experiments
have been rather trying both for the
department and the eggs, but the re-
suit has been even more pleasing.
For now if you are suspicious of the
hen fruit you are buying, which has
nice blue stamp upon 1t, saying.
Fresh Island Eggs when in fact
they have slumbered in cold storage
for months, the investigation Of the
department can be made use of and
assist you in showing up the fraud
of the broker who sells you. the eggs
with the pretty stamps. ~ - /.
And although all this is true, even
the broker part of it, the department
was mainly interested in this inEesti-
CATION in determining upon methods
OF marketing and shipping eggs with
out great loss.
The following are a few of the con-
clusions reached:
Infertile eggs, regardless of where
they may be kept. are much more
resistent to deterioration than fer
tile
Two-thirds of the total loss in
fertile and infertile eggs takes place
on the farm. The basic factors re-
sponsible for this condition are the
haphazard methods of poultry man
agement on the farm.
The results of all this experimental
work point to the fact that the pro-
duction of the infertile egg is the
greatest asset in the attempt to pro-
duce high-quality marked eggs during
hot weather.
To assure high quality of product
and prevent in large measure the
loss now experienced in the value of
the country's egg production, pro-
ducers are urged to observe the fol-
lowing five simple rules:
l. Give the hens clean nests.
2. Gather eggs at least once daily.
3. Keep eggs in cool, dry place.
f. Market eggs at least twice a
week.
S. Kill or sell all mature male
birds as soon as the Matching season
closes.
