C„ in a recent interview with the HERB JUICE man. In telling of her condition prior to the time she commenced Using HERB JUICE. Mrs. Whitley said: “I never 'knew what it was to have a well day or be free from pain. I could not eat a thing without it hurting me and wotild suf fer four hours after eating with gas pains and bloating. The footl I ate would sour and I could not eat any food and properly digest it. I knew from this t)iat my* digestive organs were not. functioning in the natural way. ‘so after being urgfu: to try HERB JUICE for this trouble, I finally decided to buy a bottle and give it a fair trial. I will admit that I was skeptical about HERB JUICE at first, but after I had taken-one bottle I noticed n great improvement aud have since continued taking it until today Ifeel as well as I ever did. I don’t have any more trougle from gas pains or bloating, in fact, can eat anything I want without any ill ef fects. That i« why I am so eager to tell others about HERB JUICE, that it has put me in such a splendid con dition again that Jiving is the pleas “*,ll. *j®u|jl**- Lave also found HERB JUICE to be a wonderful lax ative. for since I have taken it mv bowels and also my liver are in ex cellent working order and I' am not bothered one bit with, constipation.

New York, Sept. Is.— The world's output of gold fs .enorfnous. Thifty’- five years ago it was little more thaii a hundred million dollars a year; now it is over five hundred millidus. Even so there i« not enough to go round. The reasons for this are the quantitites of the precious metal used in- arts and crafts, and the even larg er* Quantities hoarded and lost. Jewelers are the heaviest eonsum era. Every year they work up near ly. a hundred and fifty tons of gold, scarcely an ounce of which in ever recovered. Gold leaf also consumes huge amounts, while large quantities are used for plating other metals. But China and India are the worst offenders. A form of piety in India is to regild the dome of some religious' building. Such an operation often absorbs J 50,000 worth of gold. Not long ago an Indian rejah used 17,000 gold coins to form centers of earii piinute pane in the windows of his b^laoe. yletween ten and fifteen million dol lars in gold vanishes yearly in India, and quite as much iu Chiua. This Is all buried, and as a rule the owner dflflf..srithsut - revealihg the sAr*et of his hiding place, so that the gold is lost forever. Original Poetry. Concord. Sept. 12— UP)— Whether or not Concord is particularly suited to composition or original poetry does not; appear. Neither has it been shown that residents of Concord are particularly desirous of having their poetical products given to the world. lYhat is quite evident is that The Concord Tribune does not solicit con tributions of such poetry. In a front page box, under the heading. “No Moii Original Poetry,” the following, haiappeared in The Tribune: I '•’he Tribune is nothing if not ac-| eoilmodating, hut in future we shall be compelled to draw the line at or iginal poetry. We always want items of news, but we cannot get the con sent of our minds to afflict our read ers with original poetry.” Football (tsu ohu) was played by the Chinese several centuries before the l ' commencement of the Christian era. ~W - i EVERETT (TRUE BY CONDO f fiuer<~<_, won,, wrt&N, other mean*.
