rice powder or dangerous white lead
to make It adhere. White lead is a
deadly poison, and rice powder turns
into a gluey paste that makes en-
larged pores, blackheads and rice
powder iTritations. Because La-may
is so pure and because It stays on so
well It is now used by over a million
American women. All dealers carry
the large box, and many dealers also
carry the small trial size. Be sure
to try La-may. Then you viii really
know a perfect face powder. You
will be sorry If you take a substitute.
When you use this harmless powder
and see how beautifully It improves
your complexion, you win understand
why La-may so quickly became the
most popular beauty powder sold In
America. Save this notice.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview Of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applea-
tons are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. It is on sale
az all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large
However if YOU wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr.

sample bottle When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

Auto-intoxication can be best
ascribed to our own neglect or
carelessness. When the organs fail
in the discharge of their duties,
the putrefactive germs set in and
generate toXins-actual poisons,
which fill ones own body.
Sleepiness after meals, flushing
of the face, extreme lassitude, bill
iousness, dizziness, sick headache,
aeidity of the stomach, heartburn,
offensive breath, anemia, loss of
weight and muscular power, de-
crease of vitality or lowering of
resistance to infectious diseases,
disturbance of the eye, dyspepsia,
Indigestion, gastritis, many forms
of catarrh, asthma, ear affections
and allied ailments result from
auto-intoxication orself-poisoning.

OLD AGE STARTS
WITH YOUR KIDNEYS

Science says that old age begins with
weakened kidneys and digestive organs.
This being true, it is easy to believe
that by keeping the kidneys and diges-
tive organs cleansed and in proper work
ing order old age can be deferred and
life prolonged far beyond that enjoyed
by the average person.

noted from this feed, either in the eggs
or in the condition of the fowls, and
the hens eat it freely. The ration fol-
lows:
Scratch Mixture Dry Mash
pound cracked corn pounds cottonseed
pound wheat meal
pound oats 2pounds beef scrap
pounds bran
pounds middlings
9pounds corn meal
The scratch mixture is fed sparingly
so that the hens eat about equal parts
of this mixture and of the dry mash.
A large per cent of cottonseed meal
in a dry mash without any beef scrap
has not given satisfactory results. Pull
lets fed n ration with 33 per cent cot
tonseed meal averaged only 33.2 eggs
apiece in one year. 4 considerable
per cent of these eggs had discolored
yolks, with green or broWnish-green
spots, making them unfit for market.
These results appear to indicate that
''cott0nseef 1f1eff can be fedyht the rate
of about 10 per cent of the mash, or .
per cent of the total ration, with an
equal per cent of beef scrap with eX-
cellent results. In sections where cot
tonseed meal is produced half of the
beef scrap in the mash apparently can
be replaced by cottonseed meal with
excellent results.
