LEAD WORLD IN TELEPHONES
Americans, With Their Business In
stinct, Have Naturally Taken
Kindly to the instrument.

The telephone is an American in
vention, and we Americans have
learned to use it better than any
other people. Four-ffths of the
worlds telephones are in the United
States. No other country has the ex-
change system developed to give such
convenient service. In some Of Inc
most progressive European countries
the exchange system is so cumbersome
that it usually requires ten or fifteen
minutes to get connection.
The telephone in this country has
expedited the transaction of BUSH
ness. Without our efficient tele-
phone service, the work of most of our
great industries would be slowed up
and made more expensive. No other
country has rural system that
compares with ours. The telephone
has definitely affected and nodded our
business methods and our social and
domestic l1fe.-Alfred Westfall, Colo

Faith In Mascots.

It is not uncommon for women In
Scotland to become unnerved over thu
loss of a mascot. A few weeks ago
in small town In the south Of Scot
land, party of four. sat playing
whist. During the whole Of the first
rubber the hands dealt to one of the
players were deplorable. She got up
at intervals and turned the poker and
various other offending pieces Of fur
niture, but in vain. Then she went
upstairs for "Peter." a small silver
''fums up" She put him on the table
beside the cards that were being dealt
to her. And from that moment on
wards she and her partner scarcely
lost trick! Probably 1t was only
coincidence. bvt 1t was just one Of
these particular condolences upon
which people of certain type of mind
willingly would found universal
superstition. and which bring added
grist to the mascot mill Of marvellous
happenings.

"Eatonic is wonderful" says G. w.
Burton. II had been sufferer from
stomach trouble for 20 years and now
I am WELL"
Eatonic gets right after the cause Of
stomach troubles by taking up and
carrying out the acidity and gases and
of course, when the cause is removed,
the sufferer gets well. If you have
sourness. belching, indigestion, food
repeating or any other stomach
trouble, take Eatonlc tablets after
each meal and find relief. Big box
costs only trifle with your druggists

ORIGIN of Dollar Mark.

Some claim that it is modification
of the English symbol e. for the
pound. Another explanation is that 1t
came from the letters U. s. written
one over the other. Yet another
theory is that the two upright marks
represent two pillars of brass before
the temple of Solomon, which early
appeared on our coins and became in
tertwined with a scroll.

YOU WILL NEVER BE CURED BY
LOCAL TREATMENT WITH
SPRAYS.

Catarrh is condition of the blood
and cannot be cured by local appii-
cations of sprays and douches; this
has been proven by the thousands
who have vainly resorted to this
method of treatment.
Catarrh should not be neglected or
experimental with. The wrong treat
ment is valuable time lost, during
which the disease is getting a firmer
hold upon its victim, and making it
more difficult for even the proper
treatment to accomplish results.
Though Catarrh makes its first APP
pearance in the nostrls, throat and
air passages. the disease becomes
more and more aggravated and finally
