The Better Way
PEOPLE'S views vary on the question of burial. To 'some,
any discussion of the subject is distasteful, and tliey avoid
consideration of it until they are brought face to face with
necessity; then they probably allow someone else to act for them.
Others consider the preparation for such things important, and
they realize that it is wise to attend to it when they have time
and opportunity. Still others, especially those? who have lost
dear ones, desire to do all in their power that may betoken a
respectful service to the memory of those whom they loved.
ULTIMATELY the subject must be faced, for the day will
come when, as heads of households, we must provide for
those who shall pass away from us, and preparation for it is
plainly a duty which' should not be indefinitely deferred.
THE practice of burying human bodies in the ground, coupled
with certain knowledge of what becomes of them there, is
responsible for much of the horror and dread of death, while the
unsanitary character of this method of burial is a source of un
deniable danger to the Jiving. Sir Henry Thompson says: "No
dead body is ever placed in the soil without polluting the earth,
the air, and the water above and below it."
THE "Better Way" makes it very much easier for those who
are left behind to lay away their loved ones. It is a plan
whereby a number of families co-operate in erecting an imposing
mausoleum containing sealed compartments, equipped with sani
tary devices, which tend to pres erve the entity of the body in
stead of destroying it. The Compartment Mausoleum marks the
highest development of present-day burial, customs. It brings
within the reach of the average man the finest interment possi
ble. Crypt owners are afforded the satisfaction of b.eing prepared
to give to thtose most dear to them who depart this life, the bes
that it is possible to give, with the certainty that in fuure years
their last resting place will stand as secure as the monuments of
the ancients.

Will Sloan's Liniment Relieve Pain?
Try it and see one application will
prove more than a column of claims.
Jamea S. Ferguson, Phila., Pa. writes:
"I have had wonderful relief since I
used Sloan's Liniment on my knees.
To think after all these years of pain
one application gave me relief. Many
thanks for what your remedy has
done for me." Don't keep on suffer
ing, apply Sloan's Liniment where
your pain is and notice how quickly
you get relief. Penetrates without
rubbing. Buy it any drug store. 25c.
When You Have a Cold
Give it attention, avoid exposure, be
regular and careful of your diet, also
commence taking Dr. King's New Dis
covery. It contains Pine-Tar, Anti
septic Oils and Balsams, lis slightly
laxative. Dr. King's New Discovery
eases your cough, soothes your throat
and bronshial tubes, checks your coli,
starts to clear your head. In a short
time you know your cold is better.
It's the standard family cough, syrup

Now isn't that a big gob of market
news for one day ?
Sweet potatoes and celery came
forward this morning and start out
with good quality in the first ship
ment. Watermelons fell a whole cent
in one crash and as the end of the
season approaches sales will un
questionably be brisker than they
have been.
To keep the bowels regular the best
laxative is outdoor exercise. Drink
a full glass of water half an hour be
four breakfast and eat an abundance
of fruit and vegetables, also estab
lish a regular habit and be sure that
your bowels move once each day.
When a medicine ' is needed take
Chamberlain's Tablets. They are
pleasant to take and mild and gentle
in effect. Obtainable everywhere.
