tbe book came to be written. A real
Alice was the Inspiration, and In Mr.

day of Its beginning: "July 4, 1W12. I
made an excursion up the river to tiod
stow with the three Llddella. We had
tea on the bank there, and did not
reach Christ Church till half past eight.
On which occasion I told them the
fairy-tale of 'Alice's Adventures Under
ground.' which I undertook to write out
for Alice." After Mr. liodRHon's death
the "real Alice" wrote us follows alMiut
tbnt eventful dny : "I believe tne begin
ning of 'Alice' was told one summer af
ternoon when tbe sun wua so burning
that we had landed In tbe meadows,
deserting the bont to take refuse In tbe
only bit of shade to be found, which
wa under a new-made hayrick. Here
from all three came the old petition,
'tell us a story,' and so begun tbe ever
delightful tale." On tbe same day,
three years after that happy picnic nt
Codxtow, the Alice who had helped to
plead for a story, the gentle Kvcuudn
who hoped there "would be nonsense in
it," received the first presentation copy
of "Alice's Adventures iu Wonderland,"

I would lik to know th Ingredient
and process of making Portland cement.
Is tho body of clay or foapston? I
think I have th raw materia). Pleaio
answer and. oblige. A. W.
A great deal of tlm and labor bav
been spent by various chemists In in
vebtigating th composition and prop,
rtiea of Portland tement. Th con
clusions drawn from the investiga
tions ar not slway concordant, but no
on d if sent from th view that th
essential ingredient of this kind of ce
ment are lime, silica and alumina.
Other element are always present,
however, among them being magneaia,
soda, potash, iron, phosphorus, man
ganese, titanium, eio. According to
Meade, good cement vary considerably
in composition, but the three Import
ant Ingredienst will run about a fol
low: Lime, 68 to 67 per cent; illica,
19 to 25 per cent; alumina, 5 to 10 per
cent; and magnesia is allowable to the
extent of 3 to 6 per cent.
The raw materials from which Port
land eement Is manufactured ar classi
fied as argillaceous and calcareous.
Bom common forms of the first are
clay, shale, and slate, and of the latter
limestone, marl and chalk. In these
two classes of raw materials are found
all th ingredient necessary in ths
manufacture of Portland cement In
the iron legions of Pennsylvania, how
ever, blast furnace ilsg Is made to re
place tb olay or shale. From what
ever source th raw materials are ob
tained, tbe cement manufacturer must
ee that they ar so mixed that the
product of calcination contains ths im
portant compound mentioned sbove in
tbe proportions that experience has
taught are the ones necessary in a good
oement. It become almost imperative
then that the chemical composition of
(he raw materials should be known.
Although th wtlter la not personally
acquainted with tb limestone regions
cf thia stat, it appeals that there ar
at least two localities in Northern Ida
ho where limestone is found In abund
ance, and since clay is also present, at
least in spots, in tb earns dietriot,
there seems to be good reason lor be
lieving that In the future a great deal
of the Portland cement used in this
stat will be made at borne.

The Evolution of

Tha modern patent medicine busi
ness is th natural outgrowth of tht
eld-tim household remedies.
In th early history of this conn try,

found in almost everr house, compound,-

by tha apothecary or th family doctor.
Such remedies as picra, which was
aloes and quassia, dissolved in apple
brandy. Sometimes a hop tonic, mads
of whiskey, hops and bitter barks. A
scor or mor of popular, home-mad
remedies were thus compounded, tht
formula for which were passed along
from house to house, sometimes written,
sometime verbally communicated.
Th patent medicine business is a'
natural outgrowth from thia whole
some, old-time custom. In the begin
ning, some enterprising doctor, im
pressed by the usefulness of one of
these home-made remedies, would take
it np, improve it in many ways, manu
facture it on a lare scale, advertise it
mainly through almanacs for the home,
ind thus it would bocome used over a
large area. LATTERLY THE HOUSE

for his neighbors and his patients,

Feruna is useful in a great many

Every case of Rheumatism has its origin and its development in the
blood. It is not a disease which is contracted like a cold, but it is in tho
blood and system before a pain is felt, aud the changes in the weather or
any physical irregularities, such aa a spell of indigestion, bowel disturbance,
etc., are merely the exciting- causes producing1 the pains and aches, which,
are the natural symptoms of the disease. Rheumatism is caused by an
excess of uric acid aud other corrosive, irritating poisons in the blood, which
are carried through the circulation to every part of the Bystcm. Kverjr
muscle, nerve, membrane, tissue and joint becomes saturated with these
acrid, irritating impurities, or coated with fine, insoluble caustic matter,
and the sharp, piercing pains or the dull, constant aches are felt with every
physical movement. When the blood is filled with uric acid poison, perma
nent relief cannot be expected from liniments, plasters, or other external
treatment. Such measures give temporary relief, but in order to conquer
Rheumatism and bring about a
complete cure, the uric acid and
other inflammatory matter must be
expelled, and this cannot be done
with external treatment. S. S. S.
cures Rheumatism because it is a
perfect and entirely vegetable blood
purifier. It goes down into the
circulation, neutralizes the acids,
and dissolves the irritating depos
its which are pressing on the sensi
tive nerves ami tissues and produc
ing pain, enriches the weak, sour
blood, and removes every atom of
impurity from the circulation. So
instead of being a weak, sour
stream, distributing uric acid to the
different parts of the system, the
blood is strong and healthy and
therefore able to supnlv everv mus
cle, nerve, bone and tissue with nourishment and strength. Then the inflam
mation and swelling subside, the pains and aches cease, and not only i
Rheumatism permanently cured, but under the fine tonic effects of S. S. S.
the entire general health is benefitted and built np. In all forms of Rheuma
tism, whether acute or chronic, S. S. S. will be found a safe and reliable treat
ment. Special book on Rheumatism and any medical advice you desire will
be furnished free. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA.
