 "A sum up of the whole matter is: foods with poisons formed in them before they are eaten, cause not lit tie poisoning, but by far the greater amount of food poisoning follows immed diate eating, especially immod- crate eating of meat. Solomon ''got onto this" for he said; Be ye not among riotous eaters of flesh And he also warns against gluttony over and over"
 Now have proven that all Dr. Burmaster says is true: in many hun dreds of cases in which I have di- rected a. specific diet foB a period of three to six months, and the sufferer has strictly followed directions, the result has been a complete revolution in the physical condition. and with restored health through relief from food poisoning has come restored mental boise and freedom from fear, worry and nervousness.
 Now, don't you think 1t would be a good thing for you to find out through the Home Health Club just where your trouble originates and then see to it to remove the cause and be we'll I will gladly help you; that is what I am here for.

CLUB NOTES.

Dear Doctor: am snly 76 years old but I am about all in and this is not as it should be. I have neighbor who is 94 and he is as active and snappy as steel trap. His eyes are bright and his hearing acute. He is jolly and the corners of his mouth still turn upward. while mine turn down. I am forced to- wear powerful glasses, my hearing is poor and while my appetite is good I must be careful what I eat. My joints are stiff and s6fe some of them enlarged and cRooked. My neighbor has no stomach trouble and his joints are normal. My teeth are all gone and I frequently drool like a teething baby. He told me recently that he had never lost tooth or had one filled.

 Everybody has heard of food pois- oning, yet few understand how food may poison one; and few know how frequently it occurs. Be it known, that food poisoning of greater or less degree happens every day in every locality. Some there are who contin- tally suffer from chronic food pois- oning and who drag out a miserable existence in consequence.
 Gas or flatus, with abdominal dis tention, is food poisoning that is ire ? quently attendant upon sgorging, or because of an unbalanced diet. There are few persons indeed who have not experienced gaStr0-1nueSIlnaI allaCRS of moderate severity which they att tribute to something eaten shortly before. It is often possible to name with certainty tFSAsoffending foods"
 Most attacks of food poisoning are Usual1y$slight and recovery early, and so are considered ineligible or of trivial importance. Later, the victim is disabused or this idea when head aches, biliousness, dizziness, spots be- fore the eyes, muscular pains, roaring in the ears, sweaty hands and feet and other uncomfortable symptoms appear Not only sometimes. but rather frequently, food poisoning brings about degenerative changes in the kidneys or blood vessels. Indeed, very many kidney and liver diseases result from repeated or perhaps al- most daily poisoning from food"
 Eczema is caused by food poison ing. It is really funny to him who knows this, to hear people ask in a drug store for salve or lotion ,v cure eczema, when the only cure is to correct the diet. Here, surely, is a

Yep, we got another cigar today. There is an old saying among news paper men, that city han reporters never buy smokes, they having long ago been elected members of the Hard Boiled Egg Club.''
 Pickings have been rather shack about city hall this year. the last time the box went around being on the oc- caztoM of the birth of a daughter to MT. and Mrs. Probate Judge Paul Miller. But today the box was on hand again, the Clarence B. Wfnbon. the newly elected town clerk, was ghost. "Cooney" was the recipient of many congratulations on his election.

WINTON UNANIMOUS
 CHOICE FOR CLERK

The first business taken up by the Board of Aldermen at the meeting In the Common Council chambers in City Hall last night was the election of town clerk to succeed the late Joseph Schultz.
 The warning sent out by Sheriff Ma loney, calling the aldermen to the meeting was read, and then Alder man Mauritz Olsen put the name of Assistant Town Clerk Clarence E. Winton in nomination. It was sec onded by Alderman Connor.
 As there were no other nominations the mayor declared the nomina tions closed and appointed tellers. Twen- ty-three votes were cast and 23 were for MT. Winton, who was declared unanimously elected
 This was the precision and dispatch with which the much heraIded cleo ton took place. There was a long conference of G. O. P. aldermen be- fore the meeting was called to order, but there was no signs of oppos1- ton.
 The fact that Alderman BIakeslee, who is known to have wanted the po- sition of town clerk, was absent, might be called significant. but no one would say the alderman stayed away for other than possible illness or a previous appointment
