How a sister played trick that

Il was a coffee fend-a trembling,
nervous, physical wreck, yet clinging
to the poison that stole away my
strength. l mocked at Postum and
would have none of it.
"One day my sister substituted a
cup of piping hot Postum for my morn

what it was. noticed the richness
of it and remarked that the coffee
tasted fine but my sister did not tell
me was drinking Postum for fear l
might not take any more.
she kept the secret and kept CIV

l grew stronger, more tireless, got a
better color in my s}allow cheeks and
a clearness to my eyes, then she told
me of thee health-giving, nerve

me in place of my morning coffee.

DANDRUFF SCALED OFF SCALP

P. o. Box 395, Berkeley, Cal.-"My
hair was dry and falling out and my
scalp Scaly. At times there were
pimples on my scalp. The pimples
were small and red, would tester, dry
and itch. My hair would grow a GER
tain length and break off and fall
out. The falling out was always pre-
ceded by the breaking out of the
pimples and itching. Dandruff scaled
off my scalp and could be seen in my
hair.

advertised in the newspaper SO I
wrote asking for free sample. l ap-
piled the Ointment and let it remain
over night. In the morning l washed
the scalp thoroughly with Cuticura

$500 MILE ROAD
u. S. Building Highway From
New York to California.
Lincoln Highway Retraces Much Of
Route Of Old Overland Trail From
Point Near Chicago to San
Francisco.

New York.-Hitherto America, like
Canada, has ignored trunk roads and
promoted railroads. 1t was charac-
teristic of her that she should seize
the swiftest thing frst-that the rail
way should precede the highway in
surmounting the crest of the con-
tinent. Uncle Sam coolly reversed
the policy of every kingdom and re-
public which since Roman days has
drawn its military highways across
it's soil. He has not built an inch of
national road since the time of Thorn
as Jefferson. 1t is now "A years since,
in Utah, the transcontinental locomo.
tives met for the first time between
the oceans, half world behind each
back" as Bret Harte put it. But not
until this year Of grace 1914 has the
ocean-to-ocean road followed the lead
OF the iron rail and supplanted the
Series of ragged and primitive trails
stretching from the rising to the set
ting sun.
The Lincoln highway retrace4
much of the route of the old Over
land Trail from point near Chicago
to San Francisco. That trail was
constructed long before the days Of
the red or white man by the most un-
erring road engineer the world has
ever known-the migratory buffalo.
The bison, indeed, was regular
transcontinental traveller when the
earth was young. He marched along
the lines Of least resistance to the
Rockies. He discovered water. He
discovered mountain passes. He
found all the bases of supply which
have since been utilized by man, even
indicating, long before the birth Of
Moses, the actual course which the
future railroad should follow. Along
the ancient trail beaten into the sod
by myriad hoofs followed the moe
casined feet of Indian trapper and ex-
plorer, followed the prairie schoon-
ers" of homeseekers, the hand carts
of Mormons painfully seeking their
promised land, followed the thunder
of the stage coach, the whirlwind

a penny, the booming whistle of the
American train, then the buggy and
wagon of the farmer, and, last of all,
the petrol prairie schooner''-the ir-
resistible motor car.
The story of the Overland Trail is
one of the most moving and thrilling
in the history of the Anglo-Saxon
race.
Happily all that belongs to the
past. Yet when the trail was
struck few years after the first
motor car had coughed it's way la
boriously across there were still the
primitive track, the vast blue-and-
pink rolling spaces, the lonely mill
tary outpost and the abandoned
pony express" station or the melan-
choly water-hole on the tawny Neva-
dan desert Of the wild horse to point
the moral and adorn the tale. Only
sporadic attempts had been made to
adapt the early trail to modern traf-
fic. To cross America was to risk
breaking ones neck. There were
bottomless gumbo-mud and confusing
section roads on the prairies. There
were dim COW trails through Wyo-
ming sage brush, a thousand unbridged
gullies in the mountain wastes Of
Utah. There were trackless deserts
and dangerous alkali sinks" in Ne
vada and break-neck pitches" in the
lofty Sierras. No signposts, naviga-
tion by the sun, abominable ''steak"
and coffee for wayside fare, rarely a
decent hotel, always a bewildering
sense of "lostness," and not twenty
miles of really good road in over
two thousand miles.
The central government turned a
deaf ear to Americas crying need
a transcontinental highway The peo-
pie then determined to build a peo-
pies highway The project began
with a handful of automobile manu-
facturers.
What more natural than that the
old pioneer trail which ran through
the heart of the country should be
chosen for the peoples highway?
Running from New York through
Philadelphia, Gettysburg and Pitts
burgh it crosses the Mississippi at
Clinton and passes through the gates
of the west at Omaha TO Cheyenne,

throughout the country into buying an
alleged cure for hog cholera, under the
impression that this has been investi.
gated and approved BY the United
States government. has reached the De
partment Of Agriculture. Articles prais-
ing this medicine, Benetol by name, are
being sent out widespread to news
papers. These articles are so worded
that it appears as if the Department Of
Agriculture had received reports from
the state Of Minnesota showing that the
medicine had proved most beneficial A.
a matter OF fact the one report received
by the department was an unofficial
and unsolicited statement sent presum.
ably from the promoters themselves
The department attaches no importance
whatsoever to this statement II has
no reason to believe in the efficiency OF
any proprietary cure for hog cholera
and does not recommend any. Under
certain conditions it urges farmers to
protect their stock with anti-hog -chol-
era serum but that is all
In connection with this attempt il
may be said that the medicine which
is now put forward as good for hogs,
was advertised some time ago as a
means Of killing tuberculosis, typhoid
and cancer germs, according to an
article published in the Journal Of the
American Medical AssOciation At that
time it was asserted that the army was
interested in it, As a matter OF fact
the army was no more interested then
than the Department of Agriculture is
now.
In view Of the evidence that the at
tempt to create this false impression
is persistent and widespread all hog
owners are warned to communicate

fore accepting as true any statement
that the government recommends any
treatment other than the serum already
