In the tub and perhaps also in the
boiler, and no matter how soiled or
stained, your table linens and white
linen and cotton garments turn out as
white and immaculate as when new.
Fruit stains, coffee stains, cocoa
stains-perspiration stains-even ink
stains-quickly dissolve and disappear
without leaving a trace. NACO also
greatly assists the soap by softening
the water and loosening the dirt and
CRIME so that even on collar bands
and wrist bands very little rubbing is
required. Thus not only is the work
considerably lessened, but the life OF
the garments is appreciably lengthen-
ed.
On other days and washdays, too,
NACO will be found a wonderful
household help. Added to the scrub
bucket and used on floors, walls,
woodwork or in the wash-bowl, bath
tub and sink, it cuts dirt and grease
with marvellous ease and sweetens and

palpitation of the heart, oppressive
fullness in the chest and labored
breathing on slight exertion are
among the first indications of high
blood pressure. If unheeded. the
whole system loses tone, ones life Is
shortened and there is danger that
death may come suddenly through
apoplexy.
High blood pressure is in itself an
indication that the body is clogged
and choked with poisonous wastes. Be
fore relief can be had these wastes
must be eliminated.
A well known physician working
for years finally discovered a harm
less formula that assists Nature in
driving out these poisons. With the
poison gone the blood pressure is re-
duced quickly and a general feeling
OF well being is experienced almost

smiling. Il like woman to smoke
If she cares for it."
And yet you're old-fashioned
enough to disapprove of women rid

Before Pennington could reply, the
planter had hooked down his hat and
was making for the steps.
"I'll leave you two to settle this
interesting dispute for yourselves" he
laughed. I'm off to see that none

Great Demand For Homes at Seaside
and Mountain Summer Resorts In


Toxic, June 27.-The demand for
homes at the various seaside and
mountain resorts of Japan made ia
nous by foreigners is ever on the in
crease and those foreigners who in
vested wisely are reaping their har-
vest. Prices have gone up ten fold
within the last few years and there
seems no tendency to fall. At Karui-
zawa, the mountain resort to which
missionaries from all over the Far
East flock In summer, and where the
prince regent will spend part of this
season, very high prices are being paid
for houses and land. The same Is true
at Kamakura, Zushi and Hayama, the
seaside resorts, formerly almost en-
tirely foreign, which have been invad
ed by the Japanese.
The property which foreigners are
selling Is held by them on 999 year
leases, OF through virtue of their be-
ing members of Japanese land COM

TEA DISPLAYING BEER
Prohibition Responsible For Increased
Consumption of Tea in England

Londony Aug. 3.-Prohibition is re-
sponsible for a considerable increase
in the quantity of tea consumed
througho the world, according t
Mincing Lane experts.
Britishers now consume tea at the
rate of Sh pounds a head, compared
with 6h pounds few years ago,
Some of this increase is due to the
high price of beer, which forces the
British workman to "let off steam" on
pints of tea instead Of beer.
