According to bulletin prepared and issued by the Extension Service of Connecticut Agricultural College, many of the canning compounds used by housewives are positively harmful to health inasmuch as they frequently contain 95 per cent of boric acid Many states have laws prohibiting the use of such conservatives. It is not necessary to use any preservatives ac- cording to the bulletin, since it is pos sible to sterilize any fruit or vegeta- ble by the cold-pack, single period method of canning, without the use of a compound.

The Many Mysteries Of
Nature .
BY l.. w. BOWER. NJ. d. {

You can take an onion seed and a
pansy seed, and plant them side by
side in the same spot of ground.
In one case you get an onion, with
its peculiarly strong odor, and in the
other you get a flower of rare
beauty. You can plant a poppy seed
and get opium Ca dangerous, habit
forming drug), or you can plant a
rhubarb seed and get something
that helps constipation. No scien-
tist, living or dead. can explain
these mysteries OF Nature. Behind
the invisible life germ in each seed
is hidden the deep secret that no
body understands! Everything
growing out of the ground seems in
tended for some use in establishing
natural conditions. Or. Pierce, of
Buffalo, n. Y, long since found out
what is naturally best for women's
diseases. He learned it all through
treating thousands of cases. The
result of his studies was a medi-
cine called DIR. Pierces Favorite
Prescription. This medicine is
made of vegetable growths that ma
ture surely intended for backache.
headache, weakening drains, bear,
ingdown pains, periodical irregular
tiles, pelvc inflammations, and for
the many disorders common to
women in all ages of life. Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription is,
made of lady's slipper root, black
cohosh root, unicorn root, blue CO.
hosh root and Oregon grape root
Women who take this standard
remedy know that in DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription they are get
ting n safe woman's tonic so good
that druggists everywhere sell it. K
Favorite Prescription should have
the full confidence of every woman
in America because it contains no
alcohol and no narcotic. DR.. Pierce
knew, when he first made this stand
ard medicine. that whisky and NOR
phine are injurious, and so he has
always kept them out of his reme-
dies. Send 10c to DR.. Pierce's Inva-
lids Hotel. Buffalo, N. Y, for trial

THOSE SHOE BILLS!
KEEP THEM DOWN

Mr.. John Held, merchant, of Salt
Lake City, keeps an exact record of the
shoes he wears. He writes, Two
pairs of Ne0lin Soles have worn for
me 19 months and I am on my feet
ninety per cent of the time"
This is not an extraordinary exam
pie of the money-saving service that
people get from Ne0lin Soles. 1t is
typical of the experience millions are
having. These soles do wear a very
long time and so help you keep shoe
bills down. They are scientifically
made so they must wear.
Get Ne0lin-soled shoes at almost
any good shoe store. Get them for
your whole family in the styles you
prefer. And have these cost-saving
soles put on your worn shoes. They
are very comfortable and waterproof
as we'll as durable. They are made by
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Com
pany, Akron, Ohio, who also make
Wingfoot Heels, guaranteed to out
wear any other heels.
