Sb et t cars were unknown ■"to them; telephones unheard of; trains not to k believed even when beheld. They had never seen an automobile until ®°®®one took them riding in one.

SALT IS INJURIOUS If while dining you daly with the sa’t sprinkler, shake it sparingly, cr “shake it” altogether. That is the advice proffered by Ur Charles Woodward in a paper read id Chicago at the convention of the Tri state Medical and Surgical Societies of Wiscon&cn, Michigan and Illinois, recently. -“Fifteen to thirty grains of sa t a day.” said he, “is the maximum amount that should be taken into the hum?n system. people in general are digging their own graves by eat ing too much salt. In fact, it is a common thing for some persons to eat from 100 to 300 or even 400 grains ot sai l a day, counting the amount found in salt foods.” And here is an opinion dictated by Dr. Royal S. Copelana, commissioner of the ci y’s department of health: “A man who sits down to the table and begins his meal by shaking the salt sprinkler over every article of food, on his plate is counting disease. Excess of salt in the system excracs from tfrie tissues their fluid contents causes hardening of the arteries, re su-ts in degenerative changes in tbe va: ious organs and predisposes to var ious ive diseases.” NOTICE OF APPLICATION FOR LEAVE TO SELL MINORS’ LAND Notice is hereby given to all whom it may concern, that Mariah Eugenia Knight as guardian of Sam*B.
