The foundation for all stomach treubk-i. is laid in the neglect or nvlase of the teeth, and there are fv diseases of the human body not affeeUHl similarly, either directly or indirectly.

Our schools are intended to develop the brains of our growing generation, but the first essential in the development of any part of the body is nourish ed:. thisis not all- Well "av; been emphasizing the importance o tne teeth as relates to digestion.then almost as important is the relation of uncleauliness or diseased condi tions here to contagious diseases- Probably a majority of human di seases are germ diseases, and no better breeding place for these germs could be found than the hu man mouth even without diseased troth. Here they have the moisture protection food and warmh neces sary for their growth and develop ment and from here they may be vcrulily drawn into the lungs; swal lowed with the food, or find their war to the surrounding atmosphere ready to attack some one else. Prof. Osier, the noted English sui coon, says: "Oral hygeine the hy--rcine of the mouth? thero is not r-,:e '--ingle thing in the whole range i i hv-eino more important thru that A"?.ir. he says: If I were asked to c-y3 whether more physical dstoria tie:i v;a3 cav.scd by alcohol or by v'fcn-ve teeth, I would say unhes iUMin .-p-, defective teeth.

The quarter horse, always a nerv-CiM:-, wiry, fleet-footed animal, en ters a race with head up, nostrils raivering, his whole fcer.rir.g indica tive of a lofty purpose to go in and distance ail his competitors. He starts out with a splendid burst of speed. One by one, ho overhauls and pisses all the other entries. Inexperienced onlookers cheer wildly as he puts feets, then yards, then reds between him and the nearest horses behind him. But moii vv-ho know h or see sigh and shake their heads. They know what is going to hoppen. When the quarter horse has what he considers a safe lead, he (.ced es that, "lie has exerted himself suf ficiently for a little whiie.

Unhappily for the quarter horse this is rover nossible. The horses behind do come up, and he does tryj to distance them again but he has consumed all his energy in hi j original dash, and, try as he v. ill, j there is no more rare left in him. j While the owner who has heliev-: ed in him grinds his teeth in help- j less rape ho. falls further and fur- j ther behind, and usually finishes ' so far ahead.

He was congratulated on making a success of his first play. '"I think," he said, "I ought to be congratulated oni the fact that I didn't make' a success of my first play. If I had I should probably nave esteemed myself so highly that I never would have succeeded with another. But I've been writing play for ten years, at the rate cf two or three a year. Some of them have been produced, ana some el them haven't, but every single one ot them has been a failure.' Compare the work of this man, who is nowk fairly cn the road to permanent success as a play-wright with some cf the quarter horses ir? his profession, and cu will under stand the soundness of his reason ing. A little talent coupled with a lit tle industry, sometimes a little- of either quality, will often bring a little success. With success comes praise, which is pleasant to hear and compliments which are easy to believe. But stop and listen to either for long and your little success will be cur only success. And of all the despondent, hopeless helplces fail ures in this life, the man who has been a success is the woi flu sight of othersen joying the rewards that once were his embitters him and fills him with blind jealousy. And the jealous, envious man might just as well give up, for his use fulness is at an end. It may be that most people have the inclination, to be quarter horse Few are born with that love of work that enables them to go cheerfully at all the tiresome de tails that must be mastered in every calling. But to yield to the inclination is fatal. Remember thr.t there are always men right behind you in the race perfectly willing to do the work you have been doing-, and that many of them are capable oi doing it exactly as well as you are doing it- To win even a place you have got to keep on going no matter how pleasant it might be to ease up, no matter how much you feel that entitled to the rewards that are to be gathered along the way. la the Autumn of lilfe there will be time to rest and reflect and write reminiscences, but thrti the other seasons it will be far better 1 Mi 111 III m m V. - SPF.r.lAL I AM a sap L H a tent at air hiMime : Honncc"itilw - -F- -m r- .---.- . 4-".-- Eisht hundred sacks BEST GRADE OHiU SALT at 47 cents per 100 pound sack.

In Danville, Va., last Thursday, William G. Pinnix shot and killed his young wife and then killed himself- Pinnix was a member of a prominent Norh Carolina family The following dispatch tells the story: They left letters and memoranda showing that ie had planned the tragedy as long ago as Thanksgiving day. -The husband was in poor health, and had been drinking recently. This aiternoom while his son was lying down in an adjoining room and hut band and wife were together, Pin. -r.t,-. ,.. -p , u.., ""uu noiuiug, jlihl uyuii nits unsuspecting wife twice in quick right temple, the othre the cheek, succession, one ball entering the She collapsed in a dying condition just as the son rushed in. At that moment the father tu rned the weap on upon himself and sent a bullet through his right temple, the ball emerging at the left side of the head. He died at 8 o'clock without regaining consciousness. Two hours before the tragedy Pinnix had turned over to his son to be delivered to a friend a packet of letters and papers, impressing their importance upon the boy. Most of these letters were written to"Mrs. Marie New Pinnix" and are couched in terms of endearment. They are signed "A. B." One of the letters written by Pinnix declares the an onymous writer to have been "A Bridges," formerly an, insurance so licitor here, now of Richmond. When clean in verba ge, these let ters show an intimacy which im pelled Pinnix to his homicidal act. ---i-------i---.-llMMltBI,g -i raM-ri---r--T-rBrTwrr-wimTri-T-i-TT "Flir OUR QA9 dbia fiOCKU ai AM Q roGaiioiitas LUiL Fine for Staves and Grates i .aa-aafcjeac5-TOX----3i CO. i. n I'll !i P Wf.Tv Hi E3jt' -7 ??A 'A!:i ?l"J5?tl,;:j3.'ViiS itti SWjmS SSI I i w fTm.A.3 lli-jc bhA iiuutiio a foil MlHm. mi: rm sr, q liiL una UlIU 5i, (30 ;vrr4lons in Car) (55 Wi:;cns in Car) c,i.t--.

Here are two cases "lientietnen: on June 3, 10O7, I was operated upon for Tubercular Peritonitis at St. Mary's Hospital. Rochester, N. Y. After the operation my physicians gave me up. I was then urged by a priest to take Eckman's Alterative, which I did. My weight at the time was 72 lbs. I began to improve and steadily gained in health and strength. I now weigh 125 lbs., and am absolutely curl." (Signed Affidavit) EDNA FINZER. SO Savannah St., Rochester, N. Y. "Gentlemen: I was troubled with Asth ma and Bronchitis for seventeen years.
