Words are used for various purposes
to evade issues, to put people to
sleep, to break up homes, to present
literature and to conceal ideas. Moth
ing exceeds like words.
Words are used In speeches, debates
and stories. Massed In serrieG groups
in newspapers and text books they pre-
vent people from learning anything
Last words are most effective and are
employed exclusively by women and
prominent citizens who are dying.
Words are nothing in themselves, but
only in their relationship to other
words. 1t is the system Of putting
them together that counts Most words
are like unorganized militia. In war
the mortality among them Is fearful.
They never win battles. When words
are found in regular army style, how
ever, disciplined and experienced, they
are likely to be nvincible.-Judge.

Where Women Don't Liz. TO shoU.

The stranger in Korea finds that he
has struck topsy turyydom when he
learns that women do not like shop
ping, that the prominent merchants
keep their wares concealed In closets
instead of displaying them in show
cases and that the customer who does
not fancy the first piece Of goods
brought from concealment is likely to
be told that the merchant is quite sure
he has nothing better. Elsewhere the
street sign plays an important part In
attracting trade. The large merchant
houses in Korea are entirely without
street signs.

ACID STOMACHS ARE
DANGEROUS

cause acid irritates and iniiames the
delicate lining of the stomach. thus
hindering and preventing the proper
action of the stomach, and leading to
probably nine-tenths of the eases of
stomach trouble from which people suf-
Ter. Ordinary medicines that act mere
ly upon the stomach itself are useless in
such cases, for they leave the source of
the trouble, the acid in the stomach, as
dangerous as ever The acid must he

list which shows the more remark
able jumps in price. Others showing
extraordinary increases in prices are
potassium bromide, quinine and car
bolic acid. Many of the drugs, such
as belladonna, owe their inflated price
to the fact that they are largely culti-
waited in and exported from Germany
and Austria The coal tar products
are now high because many of the
basic substances are used in the manu-
facture of explosives. Carbolic acid is
used i'm the production of picric acid
