( People Gould Have Pure Food if They By GAKHETT As a general thine, I caro little for Thomas Carlyle's -writings, but he was a great man, and often he hit the noil on tho head with magnificent precision and force. In reading Dr. Wiley's exposure of " glucose, tho champion adulter ant," In Qooil limine keeping for Decem ber, I Vividly recall some burning sen tences in a letter of Carlyle's written in o r o than forty years ago, but sounding like the cry of an honest soul tormented by the frauds of tho present day. "What a contrast," exclaims Cnrlyle, "between now and. say, only 100 years ago! At that latter date, or still more conspicuously for ages before that, all England awoke to Its work with an In vocation to the Kternal Maker to bless them In their day's labor, and help thorn to do It well. Now all England shop keepers, workmen, nil manner of com peting laborers awaken as If with an unspoken but heartfelt prayer to Beel zebub, 'Oh, help us, thou great lord of shoddy, adulteration anil mallfeasannc, to do our work with a maximum of Bllmness, Hwlftness, profit nnd menda city, for the devil's sake, Amen!" What would Oarlylo say if he lived In our time and read Dr. Wiley's monthly contribution to the living history of adulteration? I am sura It Is not a pleasure to Dr. Wiley to write these things, any more than It Is. In the ordi nary sense, a pleasure for anybody to read them, and yet one Is both pleased and amused by the exposure; pleased, as every honest person must be, to see fraud ! (( uncovered, and amused at tho exhibition ' of guileless Innocence, not only on the part of the public, but thnt of public officials In permitting their eyes to be blinded by transparent deceptions. Dut the thing has becomo too serious o bo laughed nt. When manv of Aie staples of life have been so falsified by adulteration and substitution that It Is almost ImpoFstblo to procure them In a pure state, and when tho stuff offered In their place is back up by misrepre sentation, overt or concealed, lying and misleading labels, it is time to do some thing very decided about it. Tho people themselves are partly to blame for the situation. When tho laws that they have made for their protection are "nuecred" by manufacturers of sub stitutes and adulterants, the remedy lies In upholding tho hands of honest officers who, aa Dr. Wiley did until he was forced out, try to enforce tho laws In their truo spirit. But back of this lies the need of education. Every heud of a family .owes it to himself and to those dependent upon him to learn the facts. There Is no bet ter way to do this than to read Dr. Wiley's articles. You can protect yourself by,, avoiding the use of prepared foodstuffs. When you want honey you want what the bee I Must Taking Cold You say as you cough. The pesky germs have been mul tiplying in you long before you coughed or snuffled.

Bees, the genuine bees of the fields, ore, still at work, and you can get tho product of their labor If you take pains to fine It, although, as Dr. Wiley says, "tho bee growers of the country catne near being ruined by the cut-throat competition of adulterated honeys, glucose playing the star role." When you use syrup you want the concentrated Juice of the maple, or some l other sugar-producing plant; you do not want a manufactured conglomeration which In some cases Is not what It pre tends to be, even when it adopts hu ap parently, outspoken name, nnd which Is pushed upon the market because It Is cucap to inaKe and affords enormous profits. When you give your children candy you want It to be made of genuine sugar, flavored with natural extracts; but, says Dr. Wiley, "the little child who buys a penny's worth of ;andy Is not told that It contains glucose, an insipid substance with Just enough sugar In it to make it lasto n bit sweet, and plenty of dyestuffs to mako it look yellow, pink or green." If you wish a crushing reply to those who would persuade you that some of these manufactured stuffs arc even bet ter for you to eat than the genuine prod ucts that thoy are driving out of the market, then read these same exposures and learn a little chemistry. And, finally. If you would know how politics plays a part In this war of greed, read the result of an appeal to the presi dent of the United States In a battle for pure food! But jiolitlcs, dear people. Is your own field. You make presidents and other officials, and you can control them If you will. Wo could have only pure foods and pure drugs in this country to morrow if the united people willed It so! When Amused Laugh, Don't Cackle lly IlKATniCK FA I II PAX. Amcr.K y raR-y tft;- ftrganlzod schemes for the world's betterment Ir the launching of a society for the pur pose of teaching women to be pleasant. To tho millions of women In tho world who have been pleasant all their lives In stress and storm that have tried pntlence and courage, such an organiza tion seems a huge Joke. Hut It has been taken seriously and many women par ticularly young women arc Joining. The society may not bo needed, but. since It has been organized. It will fall short of the desired results unless Its scope Is broadened. It Is not enough that young women should be pleasant. They should learn to express their pleasure In a way that does not Jar on the world's nerves.. A young woman resolve to bp pleas, ant or. happy girl, she Is pleasant with out a resolution. She given evidence of her satisfaction with life In n series of cacklrs. titters, giggles, shrieks and Bcrcams. The art of expressing her Joy with a sweet smile Is unknown to her. She must make a noise, and .the greater her pleasure the more discordant that noise. She greets the most Inane Jokes with a laugh that goes beyond "high a." Phe Is shrill and rasping, and there Is no music In her laugh except when one com pares it with the more dlseordnnt notes she would strike If she were angry. She is the talllopo of mirth. She calls attention to her high spirits in not that aro high to match thorn. In her parlor at home, at the homo of a friend, on tho cars, on the street corner. In places of buslntss-always that shrill shriek that acts like a file on the nerves of all who hear her. "Time," older heads say with patience. "will take away that shrillness and give, i a mellowness to her notes. Or, perhaps, sho will not laugh at all. Therefore, let us be glad when she titters and scruanis fo" she will be young only once ' That Is Just It. She will be young only once, and why herald her coming all through the graceful days of youth with a noise that sounds like a tribe of wild Indians circling around their victim? A musical laugh Is not a myth. One occasionally hears It and turns to hear t again. It Is always low, always sweet. It Is the flute; the laugh most commonly heard is the cymbal. A pleasant way of expressing pleasure Is one of the graces of life that mo.y be -ulttvatcd without an expenditure of :lmc or money If my girls will remember i.e next time thay are provoked to laugh- , r tand I hope that will be early and iften) not to whoop, nor stream, nor ! shriek, they will add to their attractive- jti and not detract from their Jov If Instead of attempting to nlng In the Mgh notes they will try to laugh In otes that are sweeter and lower. a ven- I lud wor;d will sinlle Its approval.

"and here 1 freeze. 1 freeze," and she wavrd her arms about In a hopeless nnd pnthetlc manner while lmr large eyes rolled and she threatened to become temperamental at any mo ment.

Is it a headache, a backache, sensation of irritability or twitching and uncontrollable nervousness, something must be wrong with the brad or back, a woman naturally says, but all the time the real trouble very often venters in the womanly organs. In nine eases out of ten the seat of the difficulty 1 here, and a woman should take rational treatment for its cure. The local disorder and inflam mation of the delicate special organs of the sex should be treated steadily and systematically.
