Dangerous!
Poison!

Enemies of your health enter
your blood when you're constipat-
ed. They are the poisons created
by fermenting food-waste, and are
savage as the Turks. They rob you
of vitality and the power to fight
disease. You are not safe a minute
while you let this condition go on
Empty your bowels. Stop the
food-waste fermentation. Your
druggist has a product called
SALIN0S, which will completely
empty the bowels, including the
lower bowed, where most poisons
are formed. 1t acts promptly and
pleasantly, tastes pleasant, too.
Get a bottle. Take it in cold water
first thing tomorrow morning. Be
safe. Get it today.

If Thin and NERVOUS,
TRY PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate to
Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and
to Increase Strength, Vigor
and Nerve Force.

When one stops to consider the host OF
thin people who are searching continually
for some method by which they may In
crease their flesh to normal proportions by
off Of protruding angles with the attend
ant bloom of health and attractiveness, IL
Is no wonder that many and varied sug-
gestions along this line appear from time to
time in public print.
While excessive thinness might be at
trtbuted to various and subtle I'm
different individuals it Is a well-known fact
that the lack of sufficient PHOSPHORUS in
the human system Is very largely respon-
sible for this condition. Experiments on
have demonstrated beyond question OF
doubt that body deficient in PHOSPHORUS
becomes nervous, sickly and thin. A noted
author and professor in his book, Chem
istry and Food Nutrition" published In 1913,
says: - that the amount of phos-
of man is seriously underestimate In many
Of our standard text books"
1t seems to be we'll established that this
deficiency in PHOSPHORUS may now be met
by the use of an organic phosphate known
throughout English speaking countries
Of this phosphate by the nerve tissue the
phosphoric content when absorbed in the
amount normally required by nature soon
produces a welcome change in our body and
mind. Nerve tension disappears, vigor ana
strength replace weakness and lack of oner-
gy, and the whole body soon loses it's ugly
hollows and abrupt angles, becoming envei-
oped in glow of perfect health and beauty
and the will and strength to be up and
doing.
CAUTIoN:-while Bitro- Phosphate is UNI
surpassed for the relief of nervousness, gem
eral debility, ETC., those taking it who do
not desire to put on flesh should use extra
care in avoiding fat-producing foods.

HAD LITTLE USE FOR WATER
Highly Placed Personaues of the Past
Evidently Wasted No Time on
Their Additions.

The American physician who sends
out warning not to wash would at
one time have found many sympa-
thizers among ladies of the English
aristrocracy. When Augustus Hare
was visiting Lady Waterford at High
'cliffe in 1873 he heard one of the other
guests, Mrs. Fairholme, remark: "My
grandmother used to say that beauty
went out with open carriages. why,
you are just like men, my DEAR she
told me, with your brown necks and
your rough skins and your red noses.
In our days it was different; young
ladies never washed their faces. They
covered their faces with powder, then
put cold cream on and wiped it off
with a flannel. That was the way to
have good complexion
One learns also from contemporary
memoirs that two French kings-Hen-
ry III and Louis IV-were consistent
antiablutionists. The grand monarque
used cold cream in place Of soap and
water. Henry III not only Stunned
water, but lay all night with raw veal
chops on his cheeks, with his hands
tied with silk cords to the top Of the
bed so as to preserve their whiteness.
And Sir Anthony Weldon says of
James /: Ellis skin was soft as taffeta
sarsnet, which felt so because hee
never wasn't his hands, only rubb'd his
finger ends slightly with the wet end
Of napkin"

Round Up Delinquent Licenses.

An average Of $4,000 week is being
collected by the two automobile inspect
ors appointed by secretary of State
Merlin Hull. These inspectors are WIS.,
iting all localities in the state and are
rounding up men who have failed to
take out licenses for the operation Of
their cars. One man was found who had
two cars, but was trying to make one
set of number plates do for both vehi-
cles. Others were found who thought
that last years license was good
enough. Each inspector is averaging
about $1,000 week and with the aid
Of the city police who are now called
to the assistance of the department,
many thousands Of dollars will be add
ed in license fees.

Guard Grain Crop From Fire, Plea.

Guard Grain Crop From Fire, Plea
A statewide appeal ia safeguard
Wisconsin's abundant grain crops
against danger of fire has been issued
by the Industrial commission.
"Over $4,000 worth Of grain in
stacks was destroyed by fire caused
by threshing engines last year in
Wisconsin" says the statement.
There was a further considerable
loss on buildings and straw stacks
from this cause.
"a few simple, inexpensive precaul
lions viii insure the safety of your
grain stacks. Clean up and remove all
dry grass, weeds and other combust-
ible materials from the yard in which
grain is to be stacked.
"On the principle Of not putting all
your eggs in one basket do not stack
all your grain in one place, but have,
two or more sets OF stacks. Do not
stack your grain too near buildings.
A fire in the grain stacks may destroy
your buildings also, or chimney

do not place the stacks within 200
feet from railway track.
ga plowed fire guard, of not less
than six burrows, around each set Of
stacks will protect the stacks against
running fires"
Further cautions include warning
against smoking near stacks, sugges-
tons to equip the threshing engine
smoke stack with an effective spark
arrester, to carry two or more chem
zeal extinguishers, to place barrels Of
water near grain stacks, and to keep
all oily waste In metal receptacles.
Phillip to Probe High Food Cost.
Gov. e. L. Phillip has announced
that he will conduct statewide in
quiry to establish whether retail deal
ers are justified in charging present
day high prices.
'"There is widespread complaint
from consumers because Of the almost
prohibitive cost of food" said Gov.
Philip. II am going to find out
whether prevailing prices are justi-
fled.
II can not say who is to blame and
I will blame no one until have inves-
tigated. OF course we have no jurisdic-
ton over the prices of food-stuff sent
in from other states, but if investiga-
ton proves that our dealers are de-
handing exhorbitant prices something
will be done about it,
The governor declared he will take
no action for public investigation un-
til he learns of some basis for such a
move through reports on private in
vestigation.
II do not desire to besmirch the rec
ord of reputable Wisconsin mer-
chants" he asserted. II will say this,
however, ] fear there are some deal
ers in the state who are taking advan-
tage of present conditions to obtain
more than reasonable profit"
Any action taken probably will be
through the attorney generals depart
ment.
