Japanese Champagne

Japan. has. in the course of the war, been saturated with 30 much wealth that the government brewery at Takinogawa. deemed it a good in- vestment to go into the champagne producing business at g yen (yen. 50 cents) per bottle The effervescent power of the Japanese Madame Sli- quot' is So great that by carelessly uncorIxing a bottle half of it's contents is lost on the floor. This. at least. is the report printed in 'aTthe North China Herald" Probably a combina- ton of trade jealousy and political malice.

TRACE DISEASE
 TO CONSTIPATION

One of the points on which dif- ferent schools of medicine prac- tically agree is, that about s5 per
 cent of all human disease is di- rectly traceable to intestinal putre- faction of stomach waste due to inactivity of the bowels, or con stipation. The eliminative process is an essential factor in digestion and on it's proper functioning de- pends the welfare of the entire system,
 Constipation is 8 condition that should never be neglected, As soon as the bowels evidence the slightest disposition to slow up. a mild laxative should be taken. The combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, known as Dr. Caldweil's Syrup Pepsin and sold in drug stores for fifty cents a bottle, is highly recommended as cerrective.s acting gently in an easy, natural way, without griping or other pain or discomfort. A trial bottle of this excellent family remedy can be obtained, free of charge, by writing to Dr. w. B. Caldwell, 450 Washington St. Monticello, Illinois.

Pretty Hlah Hiils,

A distinguished astronomer once took the trouble to measure in several paintings the size of the moon and to deduce from it the height of the noun tains shown in the same picture. He found that the average height of the hills was about forty three miles, while one giant peak raised its head more than hundred miles above sea level. Turner, who was one of the greatest masters of landscape composition and coloring, frequently exaggerates the height of his hills with the intention of comerring upon them a majesty which otherwise they would not possess.

Grease Spots.

Grease spots can be removed with gasoline or with ether. But careful manipulation is necessary. Gasoline and ether must be kept away from any flame. Pour enough gasoline or ether on tablespoonful of starch to make pasts, place the paste on the under side of the spot and allow to re- main several minutes. Brush of the starch when 1t is dry. Ether evapo- rates more rapidly than gasoline and leaves no unpleasant odor.
