FOUGHT THE FLOWING BOWL
ers Long Ago Lifted Their Voices
Against Drunkenness.

Temperance movements and prohibi-
years. 1t was China that first tried
to be bone-dry. Early reforms along
temperance lines are attributed to the
priests of India and Persia. But the
Chinese claim that In the eleventh CEN
fury before Christ their emperor, SO
Disguised over the prevalence of drunk
enness ordered all the grapeylnes In
the kingdom uprooted.
A hundred years before this bone
dry effort. In the twelfth century be-
fore Christ. King Wen tried partial re-
form I'm China. Wen. founder of the
Chou dynasty promulgated an "An-
nouncement Against Drunkenness" ac-
cordlng to ancient Chinese documents
handed down by Confuclus.
King Wen declared drinking has
long been a national vice." He Or
dcred that wine be used only In con-
nection with sacriflces--and even then
drunkenness was not to be tolerated.
The temperance reforms also ex-
listed in Egypt centuries before Christ.

who had been looking upon the flowing
bowl too freely:

words that come out Of thy mouth

comrades go on drinking; they stand
up and say: Away with this fellow

seek thee to ask counsel of thee, thou
wouldst be found lying in the dust

African Piumles.

The historian Herodotus, $500 years
ago, described the African pigmies
which he located near the source Of
the Nile. Herodotus, for once, told
the truth, for 1t Is in that region that
modern explorers have found them.
Stanley described them as having huge
stomachs and short legs, and as leap
ing about like grasshoppers." One
specimen he saw was full-grown
young woman, three inches short OF
three feet in height, but perfectly
formed and Of glistening sickness

A SUMMER COLD

A cold in the summer time, as every
body knows, is the hardest kind Of a
cold to get rid Of. The best and quick
est way ia to go to bed and stay there
If you can, with a bottle Of "Boschee's
Syrup" handy to insure a good nights
rest, free from coughing, with easy ex-
pectoration in the morning.
But if you can't stay In bed you must
keep cut of draughts, avoid sudden
changes, eat sparingly of simple food
end take occasional doses of Boschee's
Syrup, which you can buy at any store
where medicine Is sold, safe and eff
cient remedy, made In America for more
than fifty years. Keep it handy.-Adv.

Use Of DRINKING Water,

Drink whatever water you desire
with meals. but do not take Ice water.
and do not use water merely to wash
food down your throat. Water aids d.
gestion by helping to liQuefy the food
and by bringing the gastric juices into
closer contact with the food particles.
Water does not affect the engines and
weaken them by dilution as some peo-
pie maintain, because the power Of the
engines depends not on the percent
age which is present, but upon their
total amount and chemical compost

spot is generally the kidneys. Keep

dition and you will generally find your

your system will always be in working
order. Your spirits will be enliyened,
