r . . . . iiopD'o column A IWrwHion "Edgar Hancock, who was operat ed on for gunshot wound in the an itarlum at Olner few weeks ago has so far recovered a to come home last. Friday." The above Item ap peared In laat week'a Journal. Dr. J. M. Hoyles, one of the attending physicians, has called our attention to what he Insists la a very glaring error In the above atatement. He says the wound waa not in the sanl tariutn at all, but wai In the ilio lumbar region, about one and one half Inchea to the right of the fourth lumbar vertebra. The bullet struck the crest of the ilium and waa de flected slightly upward passing through the hepatic flexure, barely missing the transverse colon, plow ed lta way through the lower end of the right lobe of the hepatic gland, and lodged in the abdominal wall about two inchea to the right of the umbilical cicatrix. No other part of the viscera was injured. We are glad to make this correction and to assure our readers that the sanitar ium was In no way Injured. Flora, 111., Journal. Use the Newmper If a member of your family died, would you print the obituary on a billboard? If your wife entertain ed, would you send an account of it to the theatre program man? If you were to enlarge your business, would you advertise In a fcotel register? If you were going to have a wedding In your family would you get out a handbill? You would send such Items to a newspaper, wouldn't you? Then why don't you put your adver tisement in a newspaper? Every man who uses a billboard Is adding to nature faking. The newspapers build your town. A minister In a small town, who probably had the usual difficulty In getting bla salary after he had work ed hard to earn It, Just before mak ing a change to another field ad dressed his congregation as follows: "Dear friends, you don't love me be cause you don't pay my salary. You don't love one another because there are no weddlnga. and God doesn't want you because nobody does. Now, brethren. I have been appointed chanlaln of th penitentiary In this state and this will be my last Sunday among you. I will preach from the text, 'I go to prepare a place for you,' after which the choir will sing 'Meet Me There." Profane language Among people who really think, profanity has Joined the silent ma jority and is resting in the tomb with all the other dead languages. Not so long ago many men, good men, decent men, thought nothing of hearing a few cuss words now and then. That la. If they thought much of the incident they said nothing But in the last few years men, es pecially bUBlnesa men, have come to the realisation that swearing la de cidedly out of place at any place. No one likes to hear anyone use rrofanlty. It goes against the grain of most men, and women shrink from It as they would from a snake or some other vile creature. Not so long ago an employe of a big Chicago concern was heard swearing by the president of the firm. There were no women within hearing but that made no difference to the "big boM." The clerk was discharged. Many men think they could not get along without the use of profane language: They cou4d. Profanity is merely a useless waete of words. Cut oat the waste, yoti men who swear! You'll feel better for It half hour, ma'am," the druggist replied. She walked out. I lloln' ilnd My idee of beln' glad Ain't In wiahln' that I had Something that I cannot buy, Ain't In vlewln' with a sigh That would strain my wallet strings; Iticher people doln' things Wlshin I could do 'em. too. I don't care what rich folks do: I'm contented with the way My life's poin' every day.

Finally she asked "Is this Dest exterminator relia Starting Fires with Keroene In the first six months of the year 1914 more people were burned to death In the state of Illinois than from any other cause. It Is an exceedingly dangerous practice, warns the state fire marsh al's bulletin. So many fatal accl dents were reported that In some counties the coroner of the county, who was called upon to investigate these fatalities, Issued warning thru the newspapers calling the attention of the people to the dangerous prac tice of starting fires with kerosene. In the county of Stephenson, Illinois five deaths were reported In the per lod of one year. Kerosene should never be poured from a can Into a stove under any circumstances. A stove may be warm or there may be a coal of fire left In It, and In either case a seri ous explosion Is likely to follow. Be sides the liquid kerosene In the ran there Is always present a highly In flammable and explosive gas. If the stove is warm or a few coals life In It, this gas may Ignite and a serious explosion occur, in which the person starting the fire Is likely to be burn ed to death. Kerosene starts a fire in a hurry. It produces about six times as much heat as does wood in burning and It can be readily lighted with a match. Consequently It is unreasonable to expect that Its use in this connection will be entirely discontinued. The only reasonably safe course to fol-j low If kerosene must be used in starting fires is to pour the kerosene ou the kindling before placing it in the stove. Remember, the less kerosene there is in the can the more room there Is for the explosive gas and consequent ly the greater danger of an explos ion. More than forty people were burn ed to death In Illinois last year by starting fires with kerosene. Never under any circumstances pour kerosene oil into a stove.

Jan 21-2t-4032 KIDNEYS Drink lots of water and stop eating meat for a while if your Bladdsr troubles you. When you wake up with bsckache ano dull minery in the kidney region it gen erally means you have been eating too much meat, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of ; paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like yon relieve your bowels; re- ! moving all the body's urinous waste, i eNe you hnve backache, sick headache, . d77.y spells; your stomach sours, tongue i is coated, and when the weather is bad I you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged . to seek relief two or three times during j the night. Either consult a good, reliable physi cian at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of J ad Salts; taks a tablespoonful in a glass of water : before breakfast for a few days and your j kidneys will then act fine. This famous ! salts is mads from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with litiiia, and baa been used for generations to 1 clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder wenkness. Jad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes a delightful, effer vescent lithia-water drink. 10O REWARD, 9100 The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh.
