SAYS THAT JIFFY-JELL
 BARS GLUTTONY

MT. Alfred W. McCann, the food expert, writing in the New York Globe, says that the greatest virtue of Jiffy-Jeu is as a barrier to g1ut- tony.
 The average person greatly over eats. One follows a big dinner with a hearty dessert, too tempting to re- fuse. And that is often the final straw.
 Jiffy-JelI supplies a, dessert which is healthful and enticing, yet it does not tax the stomach. The body of the dessert is formed by a little gel atine, sweetened and acidulated. dis solved in a pint of water. The fla Vor is a fruit-juice essence made from the fruit itself.
 A few years ago a large whole sale grocery house in New York dis continued the sale of all so-called fruit flavors save lemon and orange. The reason given was that other fruit flayors could not be manufactured, so synthetic ethers, etc, had to be substituted.
 But the makers of Jiffy-Jeu have found a way to supply these true fruit flavors. They make them by condensing fruit juice Then they seal them in glass vials---a bottle in each packa ge-so they keep.
 Thus Jiffy-Jeu is bringing to mil lions a true-fruit dinner-ender. It supplies the delights and the health fitness of fruit. And, like fruit, it does not tax an overloaded stomach.
 MT. McCann says that Jiffy-Jel has done more to put Waukesha on the map than all the Waukesha Spring Water that has been bottled for a century.

First American Inventor of "HOrseless Carriage"
 Died a Century Ago

Today is the enc hundredth an niversary of the death of Oliver Evans. the first American inventor to attempt to build a "horseless car riage. Evans died in Ne~5 York on April 21. 1919. The inventive faculty was developed in Evans while he was apprentice to a wheelwright, and be- fore he had reached the age of man hood the construction of a land car rfage to be propelled without animal power began to occupy his attention. After having invented devices which revolUtioned the manufacture of flour, from which he made a considerable fortune, he began in earnest to set about the realization of his boyhood dream of a steam carraige.
 His attempts in this direction were not veJy successful. but resulted in the first steam engine constructed on the high pressure principle. and the first steam dredging machine used in America. The latter consisted of a flat scow with a small engine. and when it was completed it was placed upon wheels and propelled with a paddle to Schuylkill. a distance of a mile and q half. and was then fitted with a paddle wheel and navigated he river to its junction with the

 BOotlegging, the hand maiden of the border saloon, is becoming an inn portant industry. American authori- ties have discovered that Mexican servants, wash women and street la borers who cross to Fl Paso each morning carry contraband liquor in quantities and are making far moro money through its disposal than they are from their labors.
