Part of a Letter.
"Never can I tind suitable words to
express my thanks to you. I was very
weak and feeble and was unable to
find a remedy t'.iat would make me
strong and stout again. Triner's
American Elixir of Ritter 'Wine was
the only remedy which helped me. It
Is certainly very good; itgivesappe-
tite and builds up the whole body.
Wherever we can speak a good word
for it wc will do so." This is a part
of a letter written to the manufac
turer by Sister M. Donata of Drus-
sllla. O. It shows again that Triner's
American Elixir of Ritter Wine is a
perfectly reliable remedy In all casts
where bodily strength is required. La
dies, pale and sickly, can lind nothing
better; it is indicated in all cases of
maladies of the digestive system and
of the blood. Impure or poor blood Is
the only cause of weakness. This
remedy rejuvenates the blood, makes
It rich and strong and in this way
brings new life and new energy to the
body. At drug stores. Jos. Trincr,

Huston. .Inly 12. The state hoard of
heclth has made pulilie the result ot Its
Investigation of eciiucil meat. The
board examined nearly 1..0 dillcrent
kinds of canned meat, from every pos
sible source, as well as the canned
limit establishments In a general way
th eresults of the investigation are fa
vorable to the manufacturers both In
the east and In the west, but It was
found that many of the prcpa ration
contained a large iiinount of foreign
matter. Of one brand of potted ham
prepared by a western tlrm, the report
utaets:
Thin was found to consist of n
small amount of normal muscle, con
iiderable epidermis iu large pieces, nu
merous blood vessels anil nerves and
the Nillvnry bland, ground to a paste.
Quality poor, the material being large

hnni the reirt says: "Abundant
muscle Plire. considerable eplderinl.
much granular debris, some fat and
corn meal. Quality fair, but Inasmuch
nw there appears to lie no excuse for
thi presence of corn meal It must he
regarded as adulterated.
An eastern potted ham Is described
a sfollows: "Appcarniice good; mus
cu! nrtihre abundant: contains neither
epidermis imr salivary gland. Quality
exis'llent." A number of the other
nrodncts the Iwmrd of health state
contains corn menl. The board says:

market, however, contain added mate
rial which In no way can eoiitrlbule
to a sharp taste, or. indeed, to any
taste. Corn meal, or example, adds
nothing tit the tlavor, but It Is cheap
and enables a meat product to carry
considerable additional water."
Several brands of prepared meat
found to contain i it her boric mid or
borax as n preservative. One wcMcrn
"chicken loaf" is thus liescribcil: "V Cry
