splitter and cputmn

Health officials everywhere In oul
country should have the authority tt
see that laws are strictly enforced
against the'spi,ter in public.
Campaigns In the larger cities fare
up against the nuisance every once
In while and disappear. The writer
noticed in Chicago the other day tho
frightful condition Of street corners
and the stairs and platforms OF the
elevated stations on account of this
foul habit.
The splitter is your enemy. He is
no respecter of persons. He splits al
any and all times just when and where
tho fancy takes him.
To expectorate in public places Is
a dangerous habit for this reason:
The sputum which may or may not
contain disease germs, dries and the
residue is distributed by the wind.
Herein lies your danger. Shutting
feet carry 1t hither and thither. Some
which may contain active germs OF
disease are by this means taken into
your home.
The busy housewife stirs them up
with her broom The baby crawling
on the floor comes in contact with
them. Eyes, nose or mouth may
suffer.
How are you to protect yourself
from such a dangerous means of
spreading disease? First see that you
are not an offender in this disregard
OF public health Second, make every
effort to have the laws pertaining to
such offenders strictly enforced and
kept in active working order all the
time.
You might throw brick at every
splitter If you had the time and the
bricks.

fever are some of the disease germs

GLANDS MADE ACTIVE
BY A new DISCOVERY
Melton Laboratories Find Substance
Which Renews Vigor by Effect
On Nerves and SecretiOns.

A discovery made recently by
medical chemists will be hailed with
delight by millions. 1t is a sub.
stance which quickly renews youth
full vigor by increasing the activity
Of the nerves and glands on which
vital force depends. Its effect Is
so prompt that a few grains of 1t
produce a visible Improvement.
Thousands who have tried 1t tell Of
delightful results in "a to 48 hours,
many reporting full restoration Of
physical powers within a week.
The discovery has what scientists
call a "selective'' effect. concen-
trated directly on important nerve
centers. glands and blood vessels.
Thus the circulation improves, a
new sense of warmth is felt and the
increased glandular activity soon
brings a restoration of youthful
power and animation, manifested in
sparkling eyes, buoyant step and an
eagerness and increased capacity for
the duties of life. The effects are
virtually the same in both old and
young. Men past so say the dis
covery has given them the vigor
Of the prime of life.
In the research department Of
the Melton laboratories, the sub
stance has been made available
for home treatment by combining
it, in tablet form, with other IN
MIGRATING ingredients. The result,
known as korex compound, is a
double-strength product, containing
no harmful drugs. which users pro-
nounce the most powerful and de-
lightful vitalizer known. In fact,
it's success has been so great that
the distributors. invite any person
needing it to take a double-strength

that it costs nothing If It fails.
