SYRUP OF FIBS FOR
A CHILD'S BOWELS
It is cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.
Look back at your childhood days.
Remember tho "dose" mother Insisted
on castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated thorn, how you fought
against taking them.
With our chlldron It's different.
Mothers who cling to tho old form of
physic simply don't rcallzo what they
do. Tho children's rovolt is well-found
ed. Their tender little "lnsldes" are
Injured by them.
If your child's stomach, llvor and
bowels need cleansing, giro only deli
clous "California Syrup of Figs." Its
action is positlvo, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless "fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
lovo to tako It; that it never fails to
clean the llvor and bowels and sweet
en the stomach, aud that a teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child tomor
row. Ask at tho store for a 50-cent bottlo
of "California Syrup of Figs," which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups plainly
on each bottlo. Adv.

"There seems to be no evidence

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up a Mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
Gloss, Thickness.
Almost everyone knows that Sago
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings bnck the natural color and
Iustro to tho hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago tho only way to get this mixture
was to make it at homo, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for "Wyoth's
Sago and Sulphur Hair Remedy," you
will get a largo bottle of tho famouB
old recipe for about 60 cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No ono
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does It so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
aoft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking ono small
atranfl at a tlmo, by morning tho gray
hair fllsappears, and after another ap
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy.

POISONOUS PLANT
WESTERN RAW
PREPARED BY THE
U.S. DEPARTMENT
OF AGRICULTURE
ZOCQ I&UZFIOCO, OKWl?7Z?hV&
ACH year poisonous
plants are responsible
for large losses of
live stock on tho
western ranges. Al
though thoro is a
largo list of plants
whose poisonous
qualities might pos
sibly do harm this an
nual loss is almost
entirely the work of
a very limited number. If stockmen,
indeed, would learn to rocognizo
without fall half a dozen of the more
dangorous plants their stock would go
through tho year practically un
harmed. Many stockmen already pos
sess this knowledge, but It is also true
that thoro are others who do not know
what plants to avoid or where these
enemies are most likely to bo found.
Common names, such as "loco," "pol
Bon weed" and "parsnip" aro used In a
very Indefinite way.
Of these plants tho cicuta, or water
hemlock (Fig. l), la tho only ono that
is dangerous to man. It causes ex
cessive frothing at the mouth, gnash
ing of teeth, pain and nausea which
result in violent convulsions, and oven
death. It Is poisonous at any season
but does most of Its damage in the
spring and early summer. For domes
tic animals there Is no remedy, but an
emetic will frequently savo man. It
grows from three to four feet in
hoight with a white flower. Tho root
Is tho poisonous portion of tho plant.
The locos aro perhaps tho most com
mon of all the moro poisonous plants.
There aro many varieties, but the one
illustrated in figure 2 Is one of tho
worst. It affects horses, cattle and
sheep, causing progressive emaciation
which after a time varying from a few
weeks to two or three years may bring
about starvation for the animal ceases
ultimately either to eat or to drink.
NO NEED TO
Thorough Cooking of Uninspected
Meat Will Render It Safe From
Foot-and-Mouth Infection.
Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
According to tho specialists of tho
department of agriculture people, oven
in stateB quarantined for tho foot-and-mouth
disease, need have no fear of
eating meat, provided they cook it
thoroughly. Tho foot-and-mouth dis
ease is not easily communicated to
human beings through food, although
milk from a diseased cow might trans
mit tho dlscaso to a human being. In
tho case of milk, however, pasteuriza
tion will render it entirely safe. Hu
man beings who do get the disease
commonly got it from direct contact
with a sick animal. It Is wisest, thero
foro, for peoplo to keop away from all
animals having tho dlseaso, unless
thoy aro properly provided with rub
ber gloves, coats and boots, and theso
are thoroughly disinfected after each
visit to tho bnimals.
In tho case of meat, as in the case
of milk, It must bo remembored that
all herds which actually show tho dls
caso are quarantined, and nolther milk
nor meat from tho sick animals can be
sold. Sixty per cent of the moat used
in this country Is produced In nearly
900 federally Inspected slaughtering
and packing establishments located In
240 cities. In theso establishments
no animal is slaughtered until It has
passed an anto-mortom inspection and
also a most rigid post-mortem Inspec

Tho larkspur on tho other hand af

cannot leave tho establishment until
It has been carefully examined and
stamped "U. S. Inspected and Passed."
In all these establishments no animal
showing any symptoms whatever of
foot-and-mouth dlscaso is allowed to
go to slaughter, and no meat which, on
post-mortem Inspection, shows any sus
picious symptoms of this complaint can
bo shipped out of tho establishment.
All meat suspected of coming from an
animal suffering with this complaint is

Tho federal government, howover,
has no Jurisdiction over local sluughter

MORE ABOUT CANCER.
It Is coming to bo qulto gcnorally be

search for tho "euro" or for tho pre

Into tho broad Cold of biological study

nonnot In 1883 wns probably tho
first to noto and doscrlbo a spoclcs of
cancerous dlscaso of tho thyroid gland
nmong trout. Following this sugges
tion, lnvostlgntors havo found that
trout and other fish qulto genorally
all ovor tho world aro afflicted with
what appears to bo a carcinoma begin
ning In tho thyroid gland and from
thoro spreading to tho adjoining bones
nnd muscles. Tho dlseaso attacks
chlofly fish ovor two years old and tho
general trend of opinion appears to
bo that Ita origin is In somo way con
nected with tho food supply.
Gnylord found tho dlsoaso to bo con
stantly present or endemic In not leas
than 75 per cent of tho hatcheries con
taining Balmonoids throughout tho
United States, nnd that It bocamo epi
demic and attacked all classos of fish
In general from tlmo to tlmo.
In ono hntchory moro than 50 per
cont of tho tumors showed tho Btruc
turo of carcinoma, whllo In an epi
demic encountered In nnothor locality
tho growth wbb In general moro llko a
slmplo goiter.
Marino and Lonhnrt endeavored, by
a comprohonslvo serlos of experi
ments, to discover any possible con
nection between tho ordinary goiter of
fish and animals and tho so-called can
cerous affections of tho thyroid gland.
Thoy discovered that young fish wero
moro affected than tho old, that tho
glandular enlargement wero chocked
by tho addition bf iodlno to tho water
of tho pool and that tho romoval of
tho fish to an opon brook effected a
euro. Thoso Investigators consider tho
tumors to bo directly rotated to tho
wntor supply, but do not nccopt the
prevailing opinion that tho dlseaso Is
truo cancor.
They consider that thoro aro throe
factors which, In somo way still ob
scuro, Influence thyroid onlnrgemont,
nnmoly, limited water, supply, over
crowding, nnd overfeeding with a high
ly artificial and Incomplete food. Thoy
found tho water of the hatchery was
not IntrlnBlcnlly goltor-producing, be
causo fish did not develop tho disease
unless ono of those othor factors was
also In oporatlon. That Is to Bay, tho
AbIi must either bo fed with an In
complete food, or tho pool must bo
overcrowded with fish, which In tho
ond amounts to practically tho same
thing, in ordor to produco tho disease.
And if tho Incomplete food was re
placed by a comploto food or tho over
crowding was corrected, then recovery
took placo ovon though tho flab re
mained in tho samo pool.
Tho significance of tho nbovo to hu
manity lies In tho fact that bo far as
fish aro concerned tho water of tho
stream is synonymous with food, bo
cauBO normally fish dorivo tholr oxy
gon and all other food mnttor directly
from tho water In which thoy Hvo:
hence, If too many Individuals aro

Whether theso glandular enlarge

How "Sake" Is Made.
Tho crown prlnco of Japan sent s
consignment of "sako" to tho British
crews attacking Klauchau. This bev
erage, which should bo drunk warm
to appreciate Its full flavor, Is of a
clear, light yollow color and tastc
llko highly-seasoned sherry. It la
made of steamed rice, treated by a
process which converts tho starch in
to sugar; formontatton sots In and
sake is produced. Tho character of
tho water has a definite effect on the
liquor that results. Hence, for the
best quality of sake only tho best wa
ter la employed. An excise duty
equivalent to 25 cents per gallon la
levied on sako, tho amount thus raised
In 1912 totaling $28,000,000. The name
is said to bo derived from tho town ot
Osake, which, from tlmo immemorial,
has been famous for sako browing.
