The process consists of putting the nwdust into n closed retort mid subjecting it to digestion with a weak solution of sulphurous acid under a pressure of from ninety to one hundred pounds to the square inch. Eighty per cent of the sugar thus obtained Is fermentable. The product is called “sacchulose.” Thrift Thought.

Drinking of Water (BY W. LtTCAS, M. ts.) ( The general conclusions of the latest Medical Scientists prove that drinking jdenty nf pure water both betwi-en meals and with one’s incnls is beneficial to hcfcllh. For a great many years it was the erroneous opinion of many medical men and the public generally that the habit of drinMng water with the food was harmfirf to digestion. It has now been provjf. by means of the X-raya and actm/ tests upon many healthy young mtfh that the drinking of large amounts ril water with mcnt.i is often beneficial. Therefore if you want to keep headthy drink plenty of pure water (tvbt ice water), both with your tncnls and between mcnis. If you ever suffer from backache, lumbago, rheumatism, or any of the synipioms nf kidhey trouble —such as deep colored I 'Alrine, sediment in urine, getting out, of > bed at night frequently and other troublesotne effects, take Anuric (double strength) lieforc meals. These Ahurie 1 ablets can be obtained at drug stores. DELICATE YOUNG GIRLS, MOTHERS! Goshen, Ind.—“ When I was a young girl just coming into

womanhood I suffered greatly. This caused me to beixime all run-down, weak and nervous. My mother gave me Dr. \ Pierce’s Favorite > Prescription and I ■ have never been t roubled ance. I am now the mother

of four strong healthy children and I have always taken this medicine during expeftamy and afterward to give me strength, which it alwaya did. I consider I was very fortunate in knowing of C Favorite Prescription.’”— Mrs. Mabvet Goes, 615 South Utb Bt. ANOPERATION AVERTED Philadelphia, Pa.—“ One year rgo I was very «ick and I suffered With pains

win my side and back until I nearly went crazy. » I went to different doctors and they all said I had female trouble and would pot get any relief until I would be operated on. I 1 had suffered forfour I years before this lltime.but I keptget- , Bting worse the more

medicine I took. Every month eince I was a young girl I had suffered with cramps in my sides at periods and was never regular. 1 saw your advertisement in the newspaper and the picture of a woman who had been saved from an operation and this picture was im- ' pressed on my mind. The doctor had given me only two more days to make up my mind so I sent my husband to the drug store at once for a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and believe me, I soon noticed a change and when I had finished the third bottle I was cured and never felt better. I grant you the privilege to publish my letter and am only too glad to let other women know of my cure. ” —Mrs.Tuos. McGonIGAL, 3432 Hartville Street, Phila., Pa. PIMPLY? WELL, DON'T BE! People Notice It. Drive Them Off with Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets A pimply face will not embarrass you much longer if you get a package of Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets. The skin should begin to clear after you have taken the tablets a few nights. Cleanse the blood, the bowels and the liver with Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets, the successful substitute for calomel—there's never any sickness or pain after taking them. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets do that which calAmel does, and just as effectively. but their action is gentle and safe instead of severe and irritating. No one who takes Olive Tablets is ever cursed with “a dark brown taste,” a bad breath, a dull, listless, “no good” feeling, constipation, torpid liver, bad disposition or pimnly face. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are a purely vegetable compound mixed with olive oil; you will know them by their olive color. Dr. Edwards spent years among patients afflicted with liver and bowel complaints, and Olive Tablets are the immensely effective result. Take one or two nightly for a week.

PLANT YOUR POTATOES. More Inquiries reach the national emergency food garden commission, which is co-operating with this paper In urging garden planting this year, asking about potato growing than relate to any other crop. This is due to the fact that the price of potatoes this spring hns reached heretofore unknown heights, contlhues the bulletin. it is entirely possible to grow a considerable crop of pbtntoea In a good sized back yard, but If potatoes are grown, there will be little room for other crops. In a small garden it Is hardly worth while to plant only a few potatoes. A garden space of 50 by 100 feet will produce 12 to 15 bushels of early potatoes with good care, and may do much better than this. Late potatoes produce larger yields than this. The soil should be thoroughly prepared for potatoes, the firmer its grain the better. Potatoes are grown not 'from seed, but from the tubers themselves. The small “eyes" in the potato, which every one as observed. is tile embryo sprout waiting only for soil to make it grow. The cost of potatoes, therefore, makes the seed expensive. But this cost can be offset by the method of planting. Since only the "eye” and a small portion of the Über's flesh with it need be planted, the, body of the potato may be eaten after the “eyes have been cut out of ft. cuttings should be cone shaped- to save as much of the potato for use as possible. if the soil is finely worked the “eyes" can be planted singly one foot apart. 3 inches deep or shallower, in rows 26 inclien apart. Potatoes for early use should lie planted as soon as the danger of killing frosts is over. After the plants are up and frost threatens they should be protected with straw, newspapers or the like. When single “eye" cuttings are used, two bushels of potatoes will plant a plot 50 by 100 feet. After the cones are cut out they should be spread on paper for two days to dry before planting.
