GLAND THEORY LEADS
TO NEW DISCOVERY
- FOR INDIGESTION
Bacteriolosrist, Throusrb Gland
Theory, Discovers New, Quick
an Positive Method for Reliev
inar Indigestion and Dyspepsia
With Preparation Known As
Keison Blood and Body Builder.
Keison. In a New, Scientific Way,
Stimulates All Body Glands,
Relieving Depression. Nervous
ness, Headaches and Constipa
tion. Also Increases Appetite,
Body Weiffht and Energy.
QUICK AND POSITIVE
RESULTS GUARANTEED
"Indigestion and its attendant ills,
such as despondency, nervousatess,
loss of appetite and weight, dizzi
ness, sleeplessness, constipation, etc.,
according to recent scieniuic aiscov
eries, are directly traceable, to the
improper functioning of the various
body glands.
Keison Blood and Body Builder is
the discovery of a Bacteriologist, bas
ed upon the principle that good health
depends upon a good digestion and
the proper assimilation of food, to ob
tain which all body glands must
stimulated, either naturally or arti
ficially. Keison assists nature, by increas
ing gland activity, to do its work in a
natural way. It not only purifies and
strengthens the blood, putting rich
red blood in your veins, but repairs
and cleanses the entire system, re
st oi es weight, appetite and energy
ard acts as a safe, gentle laxative.
If you want to eat what you like
and enjoy it, without bad after ef
fects, to sleep well at night and feel
good all day, get a bottle of Keison
from your druggist, with quick and
positive results guaranteed or money
refunded. (Adv.)
Rival of the Potato.
The first cnrlond of American-grown
dasheens, Introduced Into this country
to supplement the potato, arrived on
the New York market recently, and be
cause of the limited quantities shipped
and the demand they sold as high as
15 cents o pound. The dasheens were
grown on the east coast of Florida.
The Trinidad dasheen, which la a
particularly fine variety of the taro,
Is one of 40,000 foreign plants Intro
duced Into the United States by the
Department of Agriculture. It was
brought here in the belief that It would
yield the South a tuber crop which
could be used to supplement the po
tato. It contains 50 per cent mora
protein than the potato, according to
the Department of Agriculture.
An irishman made his way to a
country Jail ami asked to be allowed
to see the governor.
On being ushered into that function
ary's presence he begged for the favor
of an Interview with a prisoner who
was to suffer the extreme penalty of
the law In the course of the morning.
"No, my man," said, the governor,
"you cannot see the prisoner. He's
to be executed In half an hour, and
visitors are not permitted to see a
prisoner on the day of execution. But
what might be your business with
him?"
"Shnre, sor," answered . Tat, "It's
his birthday, and I was after wishing
him many happy returns."

FAMOUS FRUMPS IN -HISTORY
Proof That Feminlna Beauty la Hot
Always N tea Mary for the Acqui
sition' of Fame.
Beautiful women have their poets
and their , artists who do Justice to
their perfections, but some of the most
famous women, either from their own
or their husband's talents or i posi
tion, have been frumps, says London
Answers.
Mrs. Samuel Johnson was nearly
twice the age of the celebrated sage
of Fleet street; a widow, with sev
eral children as old as the man she
married.
Lord Macaulay, in his famous essa
says : "To ordinary spectators the Iaflfr
appeared to be a short, fat, coarse
woman, painted half an inch thick,
dressed In gaudy colors, and fond of
exhibiting provincial airs and graces.
But to Johnson his Titty as he called
her, was the most beaptlful, graceful
and accomplished of her sex"
Caroline of Brunswick Is the sub
ject of one of Bomney's most charm
ing pictures.-" Yet here Is a contempo
rary description of her from a diary
printed many years after her death s
. "Her eyes projected , like those of
the royal family. She made her head
large by, wearing an immense wig.
She also painted her eyebrows, which
gave her face a strange, fierce look.
Her skin and she showed a great
deal was very red. She wore very
high-heeled shoes, so that she bent for
ward when she stood or walked. Her
feet, and ankles were dreadf uL"
In the same diary appears a de
scription of the famous Mme. de Stael,
the most brilliant woman of her time :
"Her face was that of a blacka
moor attempted to be washed white.
She wore a wig like a bunch of with
ered heather, and overthat a turban,
which looked as If It had been put on
In the dark; a short neck, and shoul
ders rising so much .behind that they
almost amounted to a hump." yet she
had all the airs of a great bd&uty, and
her salon was sought by all the wits
and beaux.
George Eliot, whose centenary has
lately been kept, was an exceedingly
praln woman. It was said that she
had a massive head, but as a rule
a massive heed does not. look very
elegant on a 'slim, straight-down sort
of figure. Besides, she cared nothing
about dress, and would probably have
been better content if, like Rosa Bon
heur, she could have got a special dis
pensation to" "wear the trows."
. Nevertheless, she was a mosLcharm
Ing woman and a very good house
wife. She hsed to pride herself that
she could turn from "Romola" to
cookery.

Fish Not Affected by Tar.
' The old question of the effect of
tarring roads on fish in neighboring
streams has been settled, anew at
Chesham, England. The main road of
the town was tarred last winter, for
the first, time, and this has been fol
lowed, by the death of. large numbers
of trout and other fish In the River
Chess. A special commission of irt
vestigatlonr however, has now reported
that the fish destruction was , not a
result of the road tarring or of any
epidemic disease. The real cause ap
pears to have been poisoning by a tem
porary increase In the Industrial pollu
tion of a ditch which discharges Into
the river and is practically an Indus
trial sewer. . r-
School boys and girls in all parts of
this State are reorganizing the sav
ings societies which did such excellent
work last session, and it ig believed
that even better records will be made
during this school year. In the . nine
months of the 1919-1920 session mora
than $2,315,000 was invested in Sav
ings Stamps, Thrift Stamps and other
government securities in this dlstrlce.
In order that thrift In Its various
DhasM mlrht ho tmurht tn monitor mA.
vantage this session, Miss Mary cC
ShotwelV director of the educational
(Ufisloa fit the district War Loan Or
ganizatlon, last summer visited all ot
the summer schools la Maryland, Vir
ginia, West Virginia, North Carolina
ana South Carolina, and was instru
mental in having regular courses ia
practical thrift Incorporated in tha
curriculum not only in the State sum
mer schools hut in the county, schools
and teachers' Institutes. In all, mora
than 660 lessons and demonstrations
In tmiftprinclples were, given to up
wards of 11,000 teachers. Many of
these teachers most of them, very
likely will correlate the thrift idea
with their class work this session.
' The savings movement is being con
ducted In the schools, and elsewhere,
nader the direction of the United
States Treasury Department. "Work
and Save" b one of the slogans. In
other word's, effort Is being made -to
make everyone realije particularly
the boys and girls ot today who will
be the men and women of tomorow-t
the Importance of increasing, produc
tion, of curtailing waste, of wise
s oending, of systematic saving, and of
investing In such securities as govern
ment 'bonds, Savings Stamps and
Thrift Stamps. ,
Last session the hundreds of sav
ings societies In this State gave ample
evidence of the patriotism and lntell!
gent encTeavor of their members. This
session, with the foundation already
laid and. with the pupils knowing how
to conduct their savings societies and
clubs, a record Is anticipated of which
the State will have good reason 40 ba
proud.
' Qas From Straw.
A gas derived from the destructive
distillation of straw 1 being produced
n i small scale at the experimental
farm of. the United States Department
of Agriculture at Arlington, VaT, says
tbe Journal of industrial-and , Engi
neering Chemistry In a recent article.
Thla gas has been used, for motor
fuel, for cooking anof Illuminating pur
poses, Jut Its commercial value has
not yet been determined. The office
of development work fit the bureau of
chemistry Is now making a series of
tests upon It
. Tlfty rpounds 'of straws will produce
abont 300 cubic feet of gas, and the
problem ' of liquefying or condensing
the gas In order to enable It to be used
practically as a motor fuel is now in
process of solution. . -
