There are successful gargles that stop
soreness in the throat, but TO prevent their
incessant return, the blood must be put in

influences all the functions Of the body to
neutralize the irritants or waste products
and to stimulate their excretion through
the proper channels.
Rheumatic sore threat is a dangerous
indication, as it means that the blood Is
loaded with more uric acid than the kid
neys can excrete. and may thus lead to
serious general disturbance.
The action Of s. s. S. stimulates cellular
activity. 1t prevents the accumulation of
irritants in local spots. 1t enables the

Not Patented.

Cooperation is the keynote I'm sue
cessful accident prevention work.
Many large manufacturers who have
designed accident prevention devices
for their own use have not patented
them III order that others may utilize
their ideas. A large railroad company
which has designed all of the accident
prevention apparatus in use in it's ma
chine shops is willing to furnish blue
prints of the devices to those who de-
sire to install them in their plants.

Speaking of high prices, the Star
notices that one of our local grocery
stores is advertising a certain brand
of -four at 50 cents for the twenty
four pound sack, which is a lower
rate than has been on for some time
1t is likely that flour will be cheaper
this year, unless the railroads and
stock gamblers get all the profit on
our million-bushel wheat crop.

Fools and Lunatics.

Since the sale of his Les Danseuses
la Barre the painter, Degas, whose
very existence Paris had forgotten, has
been made hero Of thousand and
one anecdotes in the Partisan press.
Here is one which credits the master
with a certain hooking humor. When
the sale was over Degas, so it is said,
asked to be allowed to see, or, rather,
to handle-for the painter is almost
blind-the now famous picture. "Yes,"
he said as he touched the surface with
delicate finger tips; "the man who
painted this was no fool, but whoever
paid $4,000 for it was a thorough lu-
matte. Paris Letter to London Tele-

Peanuts In Africa.

The peanut seems to be playing the
part of "civilizer" in some of the colo
NAL districts Of Africa. Traders give
a negro bushel of nuts for seed on
condition that he return four bushels
from his crop, and since the yield in
good years is twentyfold the black
man generally has surplus that he
can sell at the rate Of shilling bush
ell. From a single station in Senegam-
bia there were shipped in one year
10000 tons. Small boys and scientists
have long been in agreement as to the
value of the peanut Now statesmen
also will have to do 1t honor since it
seems likely to lead the native African
into the paths Of agriculture.
