lids unless you are sure that at
the farm which produces h Q
milk the utmost cleanliness 10

larry during milking. that the
employees are thoroughly healthy
and cleanly persons. that the
cows are free from diseases,
that the water used for rinsing
is of undoubted purity. and that
the milk Is quickly cooled and
kept cold and covered until de-
Nvered to you.
Raw milk often produces tu-
berculosis. scarlet fever. also
typhoid and other Intestinal dis.
eases.
We can guard against fnfec-
zion by properly pasteurizins

Properly pasteurizing milk
tand creamy by Keeping IL at I'D
deg f. for thirty minutes does
not affect its nutriuve vaiue
nor Its digestibility.
The best system is to pasteur-
ize the milk after 1t has been
bottled.
You can home pasteurize raw
milk by heating 1t to near boil
ing, then cool, and keep cold

Most indigestion in babies is
caused by milk too rich in

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, December 49,
An unusual drama depicting the wonder
full bravery of two girls. coupled with
the magic skill of surgeons. was enacted
in the operating rooms Of the Northwest

-Four large strips Of skin were trans

her seventeen year-old sister Nora
Nora was burned three weeks ago when
her dress became ignited and left her a
tower Of flame. The accident occurred at
a021 Diamond street, only q few days
after the girl arrived from her home in
Ireland, 20 that she might spend this
Christmas with her sister. whom she re-
sembles as closely as twin.
When the flames about the agony
crazed girl were smothered It was found
that her entire body. with the exception
SCARED and with the skin nearly en-.
tirely burned away.
After physicians had declared the cas-,
hopeless she was taken to the North

magical surgery has practically assuret

The sister. who had begged the sur

rived at the hospital early this mornin
and knelt beside the pathetic little fgur
swathed In bandages and gauze from
which two immense blue eyes attempte
nlutely to hide almost indescribabl
agony.

accepted Is quite meeting the de-
mands Of the situation. At the close
OF every debate the notion OF in some
way massing the banking reserves OF
the country has been fortified. 1t
may be taken for granted that the
Bryan wing of the democracy would
never have consented to any plan OF
strengthening the national bank sys-

that it was better to have hand IN

ing protest against the whole bus

Nobody questions that the govern :
ment might have created the national
bank system originally on the lines
of the Glass owen bill. The fact
that it did not, and that the national
banks we have have grown UP IN
another way. may give them some
technical rights, as Judge Prouty VIII
urge. But that any substantial IN
justice will be done by reshaping our
national banking system so as TO
create a central reserve, and compel
such of the national banks as choose
to hold their charters, to subscribe
to the new order of things the judge
can not successfully maintain.

OF possible trouble are the worst pos
sible strategy and that the army should
be distributed where it will do the
most good from a defensive point Of
view and not from the view point of
congressman who desire reelection.
OF course there will arise a wall Of
protest should II be concluded to abol-
ish posts like that at Des Moines: but
aside from J. A. T. Hubs anxiety to
stay in congress and the willingness OF
the old guard to assist him in that d.
rection nobody knows why an army

With similar purposes will protest. But
IL the most IL to be made of our little
army the place for army posts and the
regular soldier is on the borders at the

Iowa needs an army post about as
much as Dies Moines needs fortifying
against invasion from Mexico. If the
government decides to remove the post
