(Continued from last week) The fine microscopic glands un der the skin, millions upon millions in number, are also clogged and stiffened with this excess of mineral ! matter, and the skin takes on the hue of age, while its flexibility and softness are decreased. Wrinkles come naturally on the face and hands. By the same clogging which en ters all tissues and membranes, the stomach hardens and is no longer able to digest animal fats. The nerves and ganglia, or stor age centers of vitality, are deprived of their flexibility, and cannot vi brate the feelings and powers of life as well as formerly. water, fresh spring: ;water, or any very soft water to drink.

HE . U L. a : i 3 I . U . OnLLltlll-NU AS U. S. COMMISSION Judge James E. Boyd of Greens boro -yesterday issued an order ap pointing Theodore D. Shelton of this city as United States commissioner for Buncombe county, to succeed R. S. McCall who has resigned. Mr. Shelton took the oath of office this morning before United States clerk of court, W. S. Hyams, and the com mission will be issued tomorrow. It is probable that an office in the United States postoffice and court house building will be assigned to the aew commissioner. Mr. Shelton was not an applicant for the position. The principal duties of a federal commissioner are to preside at the prelimenary hearings of alleged violators of the internal revenue laws, or other federal criminal statu tes, in which cases he has juris diction to hold the defendants for trial in the District court. Mr. Shel ton, who is manager of the classified advertising department of The Gazette-News, has had several years experience in connection with the administration of the internal reve nue laws. He held commissions f twice undes Collector of Internal Revenue George H. Brown and also temporary commissions under Col lector A. D. Watts. In these positions Mr, Shelton had mUch field service experience in North Carolina and Virginia.

Jas. L. Burgess. State Agronomist CARD OF THANHS Wilmont, N. C. June, 28 1915 Dear Journal: Will you kindly allow me space in your columns, to express thanks to my good friends and neighbors, for their kindness and great help given through my dear companions affliction, and at her death, 5 IX G. Bigham md family amount of miner d matter in the food from day to day, does in fact overcome the old age tendency. Let us see what foods cause this process of getting old: Old beef, old mutton, old fowl and old fish; meaning the meat from animals and fish that have lived to maturity, are one of the causes of old age deposits! in the body. The reason is plain. When aninal life is growing, all the miner al matter goes to make bones, and we do not eat the bones. When growth has been attained, the min eral matter then lodges in the tis sues, and that is what we eat. Hence we store an excess of miner al matter from matured animal life into our own bodies. We transfer the fault from one life to another, which is our own. Hard water is another prolific cause of old age deposits. Any one who has seen the lining of a kettle in which hard water has been boil ed, knows what is meant. Mineral matter from medicines, either in the form of powder, pills or liquid, are a prolific cause of old age deposits. Vegetables and roots, that have matured are also causes of old age deposits. Soups, broths, boiled dinners, boiled water, tea and coffee, are all causes of old age deposits in the body. THE REMEDY IS TO BE FOUND IN THE FOLLOWING METHODS: 5 All) meats, fowl and fish you eat should be from unmatured life. Veal, steer, chicken, half grown fish and game or fowl, lamb, and similar kinds are free from mineral matter s they have not yet achieved their growth and become charged with such decosits. Secure either distilled water, rain ii r ' . . ter how bad, is able to set free the pure part iri the form of steam, often by double distillation; then to condense the steam into water and use it. What do yon think of the prevailing custom of letting the steam escape and using the part that remains? iicry ;a"'. of steam that escapes from ' boiling water contains the pure portion of the water. The minerals, the poisons, the dregs etc. are in the part that remain after the steam has taken the good away. Many cooks let the kettle boil or simmer indefinitely so as to keep hot water at hand. They use the dregs in tea and coffee and other ways, If at any time hot water is needed the only sensible method is to put on'fre-Ji water, bring it to a boil, and then use it as quickly as possible, Many people allow tea and coffee to simmer all day long, rsHiat" ML INCR s SES The number continues to increase Two hundred are now on the roll, and applications come in practic al ly every day.
