thin PEOPLE
SHOULD take
PHOSPHATE
Nothine Lin Plain Bitro-P Phosphate to Put
On Firm. Healthy Flesh and to In
crease Strength. visor and
Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually be-
ing advertised for the purpose OF making
thin people feshy, developing arms, neck
and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and
angles by the soft curved lines OF health
and beauty, there are evidently thousands
of men and women who keenly feel their
excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are usually due to
starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate than h contained in modern
foods. Physicians claim there Is nothing
that will supply this deficiency SO well as
the organic phosphate known among drug
gists as bitro-phosphate. which Is inexpen-
sive, and Is sold by Sherman & Mcconnell
in Omaha and most all druggists under a
guarantee of satisfaction or money back.
BY Feeding the nerves directly and by sup
plying the body cells with the necessary
phosphoric food elements, bitro-phosphate
quickly produces . welcome transformation
in the appearance; the increase in weight
frequently being astonishing.
This increase in weight also carries with
it q general improvement in the health.
Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack OF
energy, which nearly always accompany ex-
.essive thinness, soon disappear, dull eyes
become bright, and pale cheeks glow with
he bloom of perfect health.
CAUTION: - Although bitro-phosphate
Is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness.
sleeplessness and general weakness, Il
should not. owing to its remarkable flesh
yrowing properties, be used BY anyone
Who does not desire to put on flesh.-Adv.

Alkali Makes Soap
Bad for Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. which
S very injurious, as it dries the
scalp and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap and beats the most ex-
pensive soaps or anything else all to
pieces. You can get this at any drug
store, and few ounces will last the
while family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with wat
err and rub it in, about teaspoonful
is all that is required. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
.leanses thoroughly, and rinses out
easily. The hair dries quickly snd
evenly, and is soft. fresh looking
bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to
handle. Besides, it loosens and
takes out every particle of dust.

James II. Cutler

James Hobart Cutler who for the
past few years has spent most of his
time in Putnam, the town of his birth,
with rooms at the Putnam Inn, died
at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
J. W. Cartwright Hampton, Mon
day evening. .He had been in poor
health for some time but was UP
and around and his death was a sur
prise to his many Putnam friends.
Mr. Cutler was seventy six years
old.
Born in Putnam, Mr.. Cutler al
ways retained an interest in the
progress of the town. He left here
as a young man of 20 years and had
a broad and varied business career
extending to the old world and even
to the Orient where he went as
representative of large American
business interests.
Mr.. Cutler was friend of the
farmer and was untiring in work
for the interests of agriculture.
He was intensely interested in the
dairying industry and pure milk
sold at reasonable profit to
the producer was his greatest inter
est in late years. He believed in a
central supply station where farm
ers could deliver their product and
return to work on the farm instead
of driving about the city all the
morning peddling milk by the pint
and quart.
Mr.. Cutler was interested in the
public affairs of this city. 1t was
he that was instrumental in getting
Miss Catherine Ridgeway to come
here on two occasions and he per
sonally met all expenses. He was
well versed in public affairs and es-
pecially in foreign affairs and was
an interesting talker.
Besides his daughter Mr.. Cutler
is survived by a son, Amos Cutler
of Florida
The funeral will be from the
chapel of the Congregational
church at two o'clock Saturday af-
ternoon, conducted by Rev. Boyn~
ton Merrill, assisted by Rev. Charles
G. Fogg of Hampton.
