CLEANLINESS As milk It the natural food for -the young, containing within itself all . the requirements of the body, and as aoy adulteration is injurious to the system, (either from absorp tion or otherwise) therefore the health of the consumer, and espec ially the young, depend tp a great extent upon those who handle the. milk.' And 'as there are so many ways in handling the cow as well as the milk after being drawn from 'the cow. "Every consumer should visit the place from whence he gets his milk (no matter if it is surrounded by a high board fence) and see how the cow and the milk are handled before" using it as a food for the baby. .

Something to kill the germs is the public cry, and these poorly read physicians often ostensibly give something for the purpose. Yetltisknovnfull well that any drug used internally that will kill germs will also destroy the cells of the body and ever) lift itself. True, germs are a cause of fever, but are secondary. ' Germs cannot propagate or even live except the resistance . of the issue be weakened. Tnie weakening, then, is the first cause and the one to be attended to. Nature, in the white blood cells, has provided ample protection against germs. These cells, under the microscope, may be seen containing many germs which they have encased and killed. What then is the logical treatment? First, the Osteopath corrects the dis placements that weaken the blood flow through the part where the germs have located and multiplied. Then he stimu lates the blood making organs that this army of white blood cells may be in creased. In this way are the germs killed and the fevers aborted.

BOX AM BASKET WOODS, f Enormous Quantities TJsed Make It Nec saury to find Kew , 8uppllea. The amount oi jod annually eon turned In the United States for pack ng boxes and baskets cannot be given in exact figures, but It Is much greater than Is generally realized. The state 'if Michigan alone has 48 box-making .mtabliuhments, with an annual pro luct valued at $2,272,621. Other states nave a yet larger output. There Is .lardly a business In the whole country which would not be unfavorably af fected by serious sbotage tn packlng uox material. . The growing scarcity and consequent high prices of most of the woods now used in this Industry make necessary a search for other-suitable woods and (or means of regulating their supply, in order that the future demand nay be met and a. reasonable profit be In sured to 'the manufacturer without overtaxing the consumer. The study made by the forest serv ice will include the questions of sup ply and demand as regards woods now used, the introduction of other woods aa possible . substitutes for the scarcer species, the demands of the trade, the physical and mechanical 'properties required In box and basnet woods, and the methods of manufac turing them.

This la the true story of a dlsoour- iged and wrecked humorist The vle Jm hae recovered entirely and counts t as one of the fortunate things of his lie that, as a runny man, he as ship wrecked early. -t ' k - - . f A few years ago there w.-s a student in one or tne leadltx unlversltUs for who the unthinking tart of the fac ultyany university has some profess ors not guilty of thinking much pre- Jicieu nat tbsy called a brilliant fu ture. The young man heard of what -hey mid and balievml It ton. Ha was known as the college wt. He wrote alleged humorous pieces for the college publications, and when be made speeches at-college dinners his auditors were convulsed. Every one seemed to like the youngster whose name might be McAndrews, although It Isn't McAndrews was all the more popular because he was working his way through college. He had lived most of his life tn New Jersey.' One day he was approached for a contribution for nn athleUo fund. 4 1 ; . . He frankly said he hadn't any money to spare, but be would give a public humorous leoture In the town hall If the university would rally round him. When he announced that hie subject would be "New Jersey travels In an unknown and foreign land." there was an Immediate promise to- rally. And rally that university did. Word was passed around that it-was going to be a great sbow The irlna rlnh f lltrt ttnrtti in mn. nM J 13 "ley In general and on McAndrews In particular. ' There was a large advance sale ot ticket. McAndrews rose to the occa sion. He worked early and late in writing funny things into the lecture. He calloted all tbe alleged humorous things ever printed about New Jeriey and rewrote them as bis own. He picked out all the peculiarly named Places In tbe state, such as Hohokus. and made them the scene of the things he talked about McAndrews wasn't et'iroly sstliUed with the word he wrote and soon de cided that he must fortify them. He got n old brick and pounded tt up fine. ' Tbeo be took some whue sand, that he got from a saloonkeeper, and mixed It with the pulverised brick. He bottled the mixture, sorted the bottles and . labeled, tbem a samples- of New Jersey soli, to be passed around In the audience. t Something more was Deeded, and so be got some brown color flasks, filled them v. ith water and labeled them Jersey Ughtnlng Tanglefoot Brand," These also were to be passed around.! lo add a finishing touch to the hl enty ot tbe evening McAndrews had a Jiap made, dividing New Jersey into three districts, wblc be called the .vloaqulto, Cranberry and Backwoode Jiairicts. Then be bad stereopticon views made ot the mosquitoes, the life else representations of which were as . big as barn doors. - , The nignt of the lecture came The unlireraltj jrssldent and two-thirds of the faculty , present.

' The university president irenerousvy eald it was the most distinguished aud ience assembled in that . town, with the exception of one that George WU. Ham Curtis once bad. As humorist, McAndreve was a howling success. I be enn i:al assity was sure of the curllllaut eteao availing him. In that audience was a college girl, ibe chainimu ot too lecture commutes jt a neighboring girl college. She, too. caught the enthusiasm of the mo. mem and offered McAndrews the mu nlflceni sum ot 126 to come to lecture to the girls. He snapped It up as quickly a a get-rlch-quic man doe easy money it was llke finding a gold mln. j Th girl chairman went . home to ncom the lecture. She advertised Mc Andrews as the renowned wit of his university the coming humorist of the United State, the only legitimate uc essor tnat Mark Twsln would eve have.

Just once, , Year late,, when McAndrews came to know Mark Vwaln,he plucked up courage to write Mr. Clemens to know It be would look that lecture over and say whether there was really anything lunny in it. He got letter In reply telling him to send It along. Mr. Clemen, f-. turned the manuscript ater with U remark tlvt It was quite good."
