NEW TOIIK. Feb. 13 Dr. C. T. G.
Rogers, of the division of industrial
hygiene, of the State Labor Depart
ment. It was announced tonight, will
request Surgeon-General Rupert Blue,
of the United States Public Health
Service to use his Influence with the
Treasury Department to have an order
Issued for the redislnfeclion of all niaes
hipped to America from anthrax-in
fected ports of China and South Amer
ica.
Dr. Rog-ers' action is based on the
fact that Eua-ene Hiers. a hide-handler
of this city, is believed to be dying of
anthrax at a hospital here. It is Dr.
Rokers' theory that anthrax is com
municated throuph hides and leather.
Although Hiers was operated on Sat
urday for the removal of the anthrax
lesion and the Eiehhorn serum was in
jected into his blood, his condition has
teartilv grown worse.
GLOVERS VI LLE. K. Y.. Feb. 1J.
Niles Reynolds, aged G3. died early to
ny from anthrax which ho contracted
last Wednesday while working In a
leather manufacturing plant here on
hrepsklns imported from South Amer
ica. The disease was communicated
hrough a slight skin eruption on his
neck. This was the second case among
workmen of the same plant within a
year. The other man recovered.

"Girman agents, especially women,

Joe Neal, of Springfield, is both a
piano player and a genius. Once a
musician of some importance, he lost
what he called the "harmony note."
when three of his lingers were cut oil
in an accident- That was several years
ago. Today, he announced, it had been
recovered, and soon his friends would
hear him play with all his old-time
perfection.
Neal his invented an automatic de
vice to be attached to the front of the
piano, and which takes tho place of
his missing lingers.
Handicapped, as a result of his in
Jury, Neal could not maintain his place
among musicians. He tried in vain to
nnd the "harmony note." Repeatedly
he planned various devices, but only
recently did he hit upon the idea which
he now pronounces perfect. He has
given the contrivance a trial. He has
called in the neighbors to hear him
play as of yore, and they have been
amazed to see him perform the work
of his missig fingers with his knee.

was hurled 60 feet and broken to
splinters.
McCall shot through the air a dis
tance of 100 feet and hit a pole. Camp

FOR BRONCHITIS, WHOOPING COUGH,

Make the Best Remedy at Home 128 Teaspoonsful for 50 Cents
N If everything: vt-as sold in as liberal
and fair a manner as the Huntley Drug
Co. are selling- Schlffmann's New Con
centrated Expectorant, absolutely no
cause for complaint or dissatisfaction
could possibly arise from anyone. These
druggists say "Buy a bottle of this
remedy and try it for Bronchitis,
Whooping Cough, Severe Cough, Croup
or any Bronchia! Affection, and we
will return your money. Just as we do
with Schlffmann's famous Asthmador,
if it does not give satisfaction, or if not
found the best remedy ever used for
any of these complaints." "Why not
take advantage of this guarantee and
try this medicine, and get your money,
back, lather than buying another pure
ly on the exaggerated claims of Us
manufacturer or on the strength of tes
timonials from others and run the
chance of getting something worthless
and also wasting your money?
In buying thia remedy, besides secur
ing an absolute guarantee of Its effi
ciency from these druggists, you also
get about eight times as much medicine
as you would in buying most any of
the old-fashioned, ready-mado kinds,
which average from 20 to 33 teaspoons
ful, because 50c worth makes a whole
pint (128 teaspoonsful) when mixed at
home with simply one pint of sugar
and one-half pint of water. This rem
edy positively does not contain chloro
form, opium, morphine or any other
narcotic. It is pleasant to take and
children are fond of it. You will bo
the sple judge, and under this positive,
guarantee absolutely no risk is run in
buying" this remedy. Druggists every
where are authorized to sell it under
the same guarantee as Schlffmann's
famous Asthmador of "Money Back" if
not perfectly satisfactory. R. J. Schfff
