GUILTY OF ONE SMALL LAPSE
The Following, Taken From unwrtten
History, Proves George Washing
ton Was Only Human.

On the afternoon of October IA,
176S, George Washington stepped into
the private office of his good Philadel-
phia friend and dentist, Silicum Stra-
dies. Twas an elegant fall afternoon
and Chestnut street was alive with
colonial damsels out in their new furs.
"Good-day, friend George" quoth
the dentist, as he finished polishing a
long, wicked-looking spear and picked
up cleaning crowbar.
What brings you downtown thus
early?" pursued Stradles, as he laid
down the crowbar and picked up an
eight-pound monkey wrench. Moth

And he put down the monkey wrench
and picked up a bone-handled iron
mallet weighing 1t carelessly In his
hand.

ington, rather nervously. What did
you say?"
IT say, is 1t your teeth that brings
you here this beautiful day?" said the
dentist, as he put down the mallet
and picked up pair of gas pliers.
"No, my feet" said Mr.. Washington,
with forced laugh. "Ha, ha, Silicum,
my feet brought me here, to be sure
Well, am glad to have seen you, I'm
sure-I must go now"
Outside on the pavement he held bis
hand to his aching jaw and murmured
guiltily: "Ah, well, just one little lie
in lifetime won't do any harm, and
mayhap the historians will never get
hold of It,"

How to Keep Stock Healthy.

Thousands of farmers have found
that it pays to feed "Sal Vet" to all
stock. Cows in the pink of condi-
tion give more milk; horses are
easier kept; hogs gain faster; sheep
do better. All animals are less apt
to contract diseases, IL kept free
from worms that produce stomach
and intestinal troubles. Every man
who raises stock, should protect
his animals against these pests,
which multiply by the hundreds
and thousands, destroying profits
and often life. "Sal Vet" is guaran-
teed to stop losses from worms
besides being a great conditioner.
We are exclusive agents for "Sal
Vet" in this locality. Sold by E.
