Hails Family Pills are the best, The Original Calendar. To the modern world a “calendar” 1s merely a harmless necessary re- minder of wecks and days, to be hung up on New Year's Day and consulted in dating letters throughout the year. It has no such mournful sound as *“calendarium’” had for the ancient Ro- mans. The original “calendar” of their tisne was the money lender's ac- count book, so called because inter- est was due front the debtor on the calendar, or first day of each month. That is why Seneca speaks of “cal- endar’ as a word invented outside the course of naturc on account of human greed.

STATE oF * TOLEDO, ls Poor Paint is Expensive If one is rich enough to repaint his buildings every year for the pleasure of having a change of color scheme, the quality of the paint used may cut little figure. But if it is desirable to cut the painting bills down to the least amount possible per year, it is of the utmost importance that the paint be made of Pure White Lead and the best of Linseed Oil.

Why are we bili- ous? Decause we don't eat onions. You never saw a dyspeptic man eat- ing onions. He thinks they are poi- son, hut, in fact, they are the medi- cine he most needs. “Whenever you see an onion eater you sce a whole-souled, open-hearted, jolly good fellow, who knows what he ought to eat to keep him good-hu- mored. Talk about the staff of iife, why bread is only a crutch. There is more nourishment in an onion than there is in a roll. The onion lovers keep the world moving, to say nothing of providing it. with much of its fun.”-—St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Tunnel Delimitation. Delimitation in a tunnel is probab- ly one of the novelties of international Jaw. It has just been carried out be- tween Italy and Switzerland in the Simplon. There have been several incipient disputes as to the precise point at which one jurisdiction ended and the other began, and to place such incidents out of the range of possibili- ty for the future, a mixed commission was appointed to draw a boundary line in the bowels of the mountain. Their work nas just been successfully com- pleted. It is noted as a curious de- tail that the temperature in the tun- nel during the work was about 52 de- gress Fahrenheit.-—Philadelphia Rec- ord.

FIFTEEN YEARS OF ECZEMA Terrible Itching Prevonted Sleep— Hands, Arms, and Legs Affected —Cured in 6 Days by Cuticura. *] had eczema nearly fifteen years. The affected parts were my hands, arms and legs. They were the worst i= the winter time and were always itchy, and 1 could not keep from scratching them I had to keep both hands bandaged all the time, and at night 1 would have to scratch through the bandages as the itching was so severe, and at times I would have to tear everything off my hands to scratch the skin. 1 could not rest or sleep. 1 had several physicians treat me, but they could not give me a permanent cure, nor even could they stop the itching. After using the Cuticura Soap, one box Cuticura Oint- ment and two bottles Cuticura Resolvent for about six days the itching had ceased. and now the sores have disappeared, and I never felt better in my life than I do now. Edwara \Worell, Band 30th, U. S. Infantry, Fort Crook, Nebraska.” Typhoid Decimates Army. In India alone the losses to the British army from typhoid fever amount to half a battalion a year. The latest reports furnish proof that the practice of anti-typhoid inocula- tions in the army has resulted in a substantial reduction in the incidence and death rate of enteric fever among the inoculated. A fresh fallacy is often more pleas- ing than a twice-told truth. An English novelty designated as a mufl’ and pocket warmer consists of an hermetically sealed tube which is de- clared to contain a special chemical preparation which will maintain its heat for an usually long time. To use it the case is immersed in boiling wa- ter for five to ten minutes and when taken out is incased in a red flannel felt cover. It is asserted that the warmer will retain its heat for from three to four hours. Water-proof - glue is manufactdred of gum shellac three parts and India- rubber one part by weight, these: con- stituents being dissclved in ~~ separate vessels in ether, free from alcohol subject to a gentle heat. “When thor- oughly dissolved, the two solutions arc mixed and kept for some time in a vessel tightly sealed. This..glue re- sists the action of water, both hot and cold, as well as most acids and alkalies. If the glue is thinned by the admix- ture of ether, and applied as a varn- ish to leather along the seams where this has been sewn tczether, it ren- ders the joint or seam water-tight, and almost impossible to separate. The cost of copper refining by elec- tricity has teen reduced greatly in recent years in the American refineries by the introduction of mechanical de- vices for castinz the anode slabs of crude copper and for charging and discharging the vats. According to an article by Mr. John B. C. Kershaw in Cassier’'s Magazine, the expenditure on hand labor has thus been greatly reduced, and the time during which vats are laid off for rechanzing and cleaning has been curtailed. The cur- rent density used hag also been great- ly increased by the use of improved methods of circulating the electrolyte, and by the addition of a very small percentage of hydrochloric acid to the copper sulphate solution. When natural gas was first brouzht into use in America there seemed to be a general idea that the supply was inexhaustibl It was sold at low rates and usually without measurement. This method encouraged waste in the censumption of gas, and was shortly abandoned by the larger companies. Teday nearly all consumption is sold by measurement. It is believed, says the Iron Age, that the time has now come when it is possible to procure statistics of the quantity of gas sumed, and next year this will be un- dertaken. The method will give such figures in the future that a more di- rect knowledge will be obtained of the capacity of areas to maintain a commercial supply of gas for a cer- tala number or years. £as Carbon tetrachloride is being made an important new product in France, Chemical works at Moutiers in Savoy, especially haviriy undertaken its pro- duction on a large scale. It is a coler- less, mcbile liquid, like petroleum in appearance, and has the composition of about ninety-two perceat, of chlor- ine to eight percent of carbon. It can be profitably made only where chlor- ine is an industrial residue, as in the producticn of soda cor potash by the electrolytic method. It boils at 77 de- grees C., is entirely volatilized without odor, and is so stable that it does not tack metals, fabrics or colors, even at high temperatures. It is uninflamma- ble and incombustible. It dissolves all fats, and it is expected to take the place of such extremely dangerous sol- vents as carbon sulphide, benzine, chloroform, alcohols and ether. It dissolves certain gums and resins, making it probably available in var- nish manufacture. Tunnel Work Kills Sixty-Eight. According to the coroner's report for Manhattan for 1906, which was made public last night, 68 deaths were due to accidents in-the various tua nels now building in and about the boroughs.

First, there must be a due proportion of the ingredients. in the pharmacopceia has its special action. Each drug To combine any drug with other drugs that have slightly different action, the combination must be made with strict reference to the use for which the compound is intended. The drugs may be well selected as to their efficacy, but the compound ENTIRE- LY SPOILED BY THE PROPORTION in which they are combined. It takes years and years of experience to discover this proportion. There is no law of chemistry, of pharmacy, by which the exact balance of propor- tion can be determined. EXPERIENCE IS THE ONLY GUIDE. In compounding a catarrh remedy Dr. Hartman has had many years® experience. tarrh remedy, I’eruna, he has learned, In the use of the various ingredients which composed the ca= little by little, how to harmonize the action of each ingredient, how to combine them into a stable compound, how to arrange them into such nice proportions as to blend the taste, the opera ation and the chemical peculiarities of each several ingredient in order to produce a pharmaceutical product beyond the criticism of doctors, pharma~ cists or chemists. WE REPEAT, THAT AS MUCH DEPENDS ON THE WAY IN WHICH THE DRUGS ARE COMBINED AS DEPENDS UPON THE DRUGS THEM- SELVES The compound must present a stability which is not affected by changes of temperature, not affected by exposure to the air, not affected by age. ain just the same whether used in the must be so combined that it will rem Ic logging or mining camps of the northwest or the coffee plantations of the tropics. A complete list of the ingredients of Peruna would not enable any drug- gist or physician to reproduce Peruna. It is the skill and sagacity by which these ingredients are brought together that give Peruna much of its pecu- liar claims as an efficacious catarrh remedy. However much virtue each ingredient of Peruna may possess, the value of the compound depends largely upon the manner The right ingredients, put together rightly, is the only they are combined. r and proportion in whicl way a medical compound can be made of real value.
