The H^lih
Alarm
often sounds first in the doctor's office when some
healthy looking specimen of humanity, undergoing
examination for life insurance, is told that his blood
pressure is too high.
Increased blood pressure is no longer confined to
old age; it is frequently found in men in their 40's
who are otherwise healthy. In such cases it points
to approaching degeneration of the arteries—a con
dition which in turn indicates those errors of diet
that often end in various diseases of the stomach,
kidneys, liver, nerves and heart.
Among these errors of diet is coffee drinking,
because of the drug, caffeine, in coffee, the constant
use of which weakens the walls of the arteries. Med
ical authorities now insist that in all cases of high
blood pressure there must be total abstinence from
coffee, tea and other harmful beverages.
Hard to give up coffee? Not at all, when one
uses instead the pure food-drink—
Instant Postum
This delicious beverage is made of wheat,
roasted with a little wholesome molasses. It is then
reduced to a soluble powder, a level teaspoonful of
which with hot water makes a perfect cup instantly.
Instant Postum tastes much like mild Java
coffee, but is absolutely free from the drug, caffeine,
or any harmful ingredient. It does contain those
vitalizing elements of the grain which make for nor
mal balance of the system.
"There's a Reason"
Send a 2-cent stamp to Postum Cereal Co.. Ltd., at Battle
Creek, .Mich., for a 5-cup sample of Instant Postum.

FOODS
THEY BUILD OR DESTROY
Amazing but Rarely Suspected Truths About the
Things You Eat.
(Copyright, 1818, by Alfred W. McCann.)
CHAPTER 13
Destroying the cornerstones of
health does not strengthen the foun
dation of life. Defective adults follow
defective children.
When only fourteen out of 500
New York City school children are
found to possess sound teeth, Is It not
time, indeed, for the nation to inquire
into the causes of such defects?
The Dental Hygiene Counsil of the
City of New York States: "Sound
teeth are the foundation of health
building. The six-year molar Is the
cornerstone."
If this statement was not idly made
the school children of New York city
are building as best they can upon
defective cornerstones or without
cornerstones at all.
Over 90 per cent, of the examined
children who have reached the age
of thirteen have lost their six-year
molars. Cornerstones that are lost
are not cornerstones at all. Why
should God provide six-year molars at
all if He does not intend His crea
tures to have them?
A hundred eminent authorities,
whose work will be recorded here,
stand on record with these state
ments: "Defective teeth are symptoms
of malnutrition. They indicate that
something is wrong with the food sup
ply. Wheever the individual is nor
mally nourished the teeth are sound."
Notwithstanding the truth of these
implied warnings, no symptom of
the national health is so com
pletely ignored or grossly neglected
as the symptom revealed by defective
teeth, even in the face of overwhelm- i
ing evidence to support the prophecy
that if we do not quickly look to the
underlying causes of these defects
America will soon become a decadent
nation.
It is no difficult matter for those i
who are seriously In earnest to trace
the physical defects of the school child j
into adult life.
In June, Dr. S. S. Goldwater, com-!
mission?!' of health of New York city,
ordered a physical examination of the
employes of the Health Department.
His order was really In the nature of
an invitation, for it exempted all who
did not care to comply with it.
Between June and October 240 men
and 456 women employes of the de
partment had availed themselves of
the opportunity to find out what, if
anything, was the matter with their
physical health.
These 69fi people represented the
average standard of American citizen
ship. Perhaps because of their edu
cation and environment they repre
sented a standard a little higher than
the average.
The average age of the men exam
ined was 33',i years and the average
age of the women 32 years. From the
department laborer to the highest ex
ecutive officer, a variety of indoor,
outdoor, and mixed employment, was
represented.

WHAT CAUSES COLDS?
This question is asked every day.
A cold is really a fever, not always
caused by the weather but often due to
disordered blood or lack of important
i food-elements. In changing seasons
! fat-foods are essential because they
I distribute heat by enriching the blood
and so render the system better
j able to withstand the varying elements,
j This is the important reason why
Scott's Emulsion should always be
i taken for colds, and it does more—
; builds strength to prevent sickness.
Scott's Emulsion contains Nature's
| rare strength-building fats, so skillfully
blended that the blood profits from
| every drop. It is free from harmful
I drugs or alcove!. . Sold at drug stores
' —always get tlic genuine.
i fcwoll c. liowuc, LlooniacM, 2»*. J. 13-Z
the results of the examination, as tab
ulated by him for the department,
stated: "One hundred and twenty
three were found to have defective di
gestion. Habitual constipation was
found in the majority of these. Con
stipation was by no means confined to
the women. A great number of young
men (in spite of their highly polished
shoes, clean-shaven faces, and bright
neckties) suffered from this condition,
which, if allowed to go uninterrupted,
has baneful ultimate effects upon the
blood vessels, kidneys, heart and ner
vous system."
In addition to constipation, the
cause of 100 other preventable ills. Dr.
Slade found nearly 60 per cent, of the
entire number to be suffering from de
fective vision, defective hearing and
defective teeth.
Ninety- two of the *196 employes ex-1
amined had heart disease. Many of I
these had valvular leakage, of which j
they were entirely ignorant. They !
had not died as infants, but here they
were looking like healthy creatures,
with the forces of destruction working
unseen and unsuspected within.
Others, especially very young men
with constluation and nervousness, had j
dilated left ventricles with unstable
and rapid heart action. They were a
fine, healthy, average looking lot from
the outside and would justify the com
forting expression of the average com
mentator upon the long, over-flatter
ed American public health: "We are
the best fed nation in the world."
If it were not for the fact that such
deception has inspired nearly every- j
body to be sfrflsfled with the wonder- j
ful health of Americans these symp
toms would long ago have been in
terpreted In their true significance and
an honest effort made to provide
against them. Self-flattery has blinded
the nation.
Of the 696 employes thirty-one had
some form of lung disease: 232, or ex
actly one-third, were in obvious need .
Of medical advice; 17 2, or nearly one
fourth, were in actual need of treat
ment.
The number -who needed advice or
treatment or both was 327—44 per 1
cent.
The noble diet of the American peo
ple had not saved these 44 per cent,
from their infirmities, even though
they had not been Included among
the nearly 400,000 who every year, as
little children, succumb to an untime
ly death.
Commenting on this fact, Dr. Slade
stated: "Forty-four per cent, of those
examined had, without their knowl
edge. some vital physical defect which |
might have shortened their life by a
number of years if undetected. Those j
in whom wo discovered actual signs
of disease amounted to 213, or'nearly I
one-third of the entire number."
There was not much reason fori
self-flattery here, but as we advance
toward the end we shall discover still I
less.

NOTHING WRINKLES
FADES OR SHRINKS
Women save $5 In an hour by dry
cleaning everything with
gasoline.
Dry cleaning at home is all the rage
here, says a well-known downtow'n
druggist. Any woman can do five dol
lars' worth of dry cleaning at home
at very little cost by dissolving two
ounces of solvite in two gallons of
gasoline: then immerse the articles to
be cleaned: rub a little and in a few
moments the gasoline evaporates and
the articles cleaned look as bright and
fresh as new.
Dry clean your own silk waists,
dresses, ribbons, belts, kid gloves,
satin shoes, evening slippers, tine
i laces, net work, woolens, dresses, chil
dren's coats, furs. veils, neckties,
shawls, gentlemen's garments, fancy
I vests, lace curtains, rugs, in fact,
j everything that would be ruined by
washing with soap and water. Noth
ing will fade, shrink or wrinkle, mak
ing pressing unnecessary.
Dry cleaning at home is inexpensive
and effects a tremendous saving in the
household and is really just as easy as
laundering. Any druggist will sell
| two ounces of solvite which is simply a
| gasoline soap and your grocer or a
garage .vill supply the gasoline. Then
a wash boiler or dlshpan completes the
outfit.
As gasoline is very inflammable, be
' sure to do your dry cleaning out of
doors or in a room away from fire or
flame, with the windows left open.—

Astonishing Power of Iron

Weeks' Time In Many
Instances.
NEW YORK, N. Y.—ln a recent dis
course Dr. B. Sauer. Specialist, of this
city, said: "if you were to make an ac
tual blood test on all peoplq who are ill
you would probably be greatly aston
ished at the exceedingly large number
who lack iron and who are ill for no
other reason than the lack of iron. The
moment iron Is supplied all their multi
tude of dangerous symptoms disappear.
Without iron the blood at once loses
the power to change food into living
tissue, and therefore nothing you eat
does you any good; you don't get the
strength out of it. Your food merely
passes through your system like corn
through a mill with the rollers so wide
apart that the mill can't grind. As a
result of this continuous blood and
nerve starvation, people become gen
erally weakened, nervous and all run
down, and frequently develop all sorts
of conditions. One is too thin; another
is burdened with unhealthy fat; some
are so weak they can hardly walk;
some think they have dyspepsia,, kid
ney or liver trouble; some can't sleep
at night; others are sleepy and tired
all day. some fussy and irritable: some
skinny and bloodless, but all lack phy
sical power and endurance. In such
cases it Is worse than foolishness to
take stimulating medicines or .larcotic

Liberal Supply of Soda Ash
Now Takes Place of Potash
Special to the Telegraph
Pittsburgh, Feb. 7. —Glass manufac
turers in this country, for a time ap
prehensive lest the scarcity of potash,
which comes from Germany, would
necessitate the closing down of fac
tories here indefinitely, have been
made independent of a foreign supply
of this raw material by American in
genuity. Soda-ash has now taken the
place of potash, and is being used in
glass factories in all parts of the
country.
times per day after meals for two
weeks. Then test your strength, again
and see for yourself how much you
have gained. I have seen dozens or
nervous, run-down people who were
ailing all the time, double, and even
triple their strength and endurance
and entirely get rid of their symptoms
of dyspepsia, liver and other troubles
in from ten to fourteen days' time simply
by taking iron in the proper form, and
this, after they had in some cases been
doctoring for months without obtain
ing any benefit. You can talk as you
please about all the wonders wrought
bv new remedies, but when you come
down to hard facts there is nothing
like good old iron to put color In your
cheeks nnd good, sound, healthy flesh
on your bones. It is also a great nerve
and stomach strengthener and the best
blood builder in the world. The only
trouble was that the old forms of inor
ganic Iron, like tincture of iron, Iron
acetate, etc., often ruined people's
teeth, upset their stomachs and were
not assimilated, and for these reasons
they frequently did more harm than
good. But with the discovery of the
newer forms of organic Iron all this
has been overcome. Nuxated Iron, for
example, is pleasant to take, does not
injure the teeth and is almost immedi
ately beneficial.
NOTE—The manufacturers of Nux
ated Iroh have such unbounded confi

over in four week's time, provided they

they will refund your money in anv
case in which Nuxated Iron does not at
least double your strength in ten days'
time. It is dispensed in this city bv
