Gained 18 Pounds and Feels Like a Brand New Man. \ " * HON. J. W. BULLOCK "Vitona overcame a serious attack of kidney trouble that had been pulling me down for twenty years, an3 I have gained JL8 pounds since I b&gan taking this remarkable preparation," said Hon. Jnoi. W. Bullock.' formerly deputy court clerk of Green^ wood county, S. C., a few days ago. Mr. Bullock was born and reared in South Carolina and is one this State's most prominent men. He also serve! v as clerk of the ways and means com mittee of the South Carolina legislature and was later inspector of d!s pensaries for the State. *Wo one knows how I suffered those years," continued Mr. Bullock, "I had awful pains in my back and sides, and my sleep was broken all through the night). I had severs and was dreadfclly ner ucauttvuvw vous. My appetite v,*as poor, and I lo^t weight and strength until I was so weak I could hanllv stand on my feet. My whole system was rundown, ana I finally ha J to take to the bed. I tried all k;nds of medicines, but nothing reached my case. "A friend, knowing the condition rl was in, advised me to take V!to*, and after a few days I noticed an rm??T,nmonf Tt inst looked like the B JJJ V/V # more Vitona I took the better I felt.

I have a big appetite, what I j eat agrees with me perfectly, and T . sleep like a log. I get up every morn- ; ing feeling rested and refreshed ana . ready for a big day's work.

Mr. L. S.

Vitona is more than a meiE-l cine. It is the liquid extraction of a; rare mineral combination, prepared; In nature's laboratory, in the bowel3 Is of the earth ages ago, but heretofore \\ unknown to man.

The principal food element furnished by eggs is protein, the nitrogenous tissue-building element whose 5 presence in considerable proportion 1 also gives meats, fish, milk, cheese, etc., their special food value. E<rgs 5 can, therefore, be substituted in the 1 diet for the latter foods without ma- 1 terially altering the protein con sumed, ( - * . x. T in addition, eggs ciso mrnisii j;u * and a number of valuable mineral ele- J ments, including sulphur, phosphorus, iron, calcium and magnesium, in an easily assimilable form, and are believed also to be rich in certain essential vitalizing elements called vitamins. Like milk and unlike meats, eggs do not contain certain substances convertible in the body into uric acid. Their shells constitute the only waste materials. Ninety-seven per cent of the portion eaten?a high proportion compared to other foods?is digested. No extended cooking is necessary for eggs, and there is, therefore, a saving of time, labor and fuel in their Drenaration when they are compared with many other foods. A For all these reasons eggs deserve * an Important place in the diet for use at times in place of other foods rich f in protein, provided egg prices are i not so hig"h as to outweigh the other t considerations. * I DEVIATION OF THE COMPASS Only at Certain Points Does the Magnetic Needle Point Due North C and South. j ! Soon after tne compass was mvenieu it was noticed that it did not point true north and south. For a long time c it was supposed that this deviation i or declination was everywhere the 1" same until Columbus, on his way to 1 America in 1492, discovered near.the s Azores a place of no declination. Maps c now published by the different govern- e ments give lines of equal declination, li In the extreme eastern section of the t United States the declination is as a much as 20 degrees west. This de- e creases to zero at a place near Cincin- f nati, O., and becomes an easterly decli- t nation amounting to 20 degrees east ? in the northwest. o The discovery as to "dip" was made v nearly 100 years after the time of Co- v lumbus. It was found that if a compass needle is perfectly balanced so n that it can swing up and down as well t: as sideways its north-seeking pole will 11 dip down at a considerable angle. This n angle increases as one goes farther I: north, and decreases as one goes south, n In the southern hemisphere the north- s seeking pole of a needle points up in c the air. o During Shaekleton's south polar ex- p pedition, a point was found on the f< great antarctic continent where a o needle would hang vertically with Its n north-seeking pole on top. b b Profitmongering. j To those who dislike that intruder fntn thp "English sDeech. "Droflteering," there is at hand the more formidable o word "profitmongerlng." For good old f< "monger," which merely means "deal- t< er," has its roots deep in the past? tl the ehskly past. In Sanscrit it means w "to t*eeeive;" and although there are T honest mongers of fish or iron, the b practices of too many other sorts of o dealers have deeply tainted the word, si as all scandalmongers know. Trading a and cheating are sometinwrs closely c: related, and even Ireland's "Great a Book of the Law" gave l<?g*i sanction o to the kinship.

I wouldn't E read another of those books for a farm. I did try to read one other, Daniel Deronda.' I dragged through three chapters, losing flesh all the time, and then ^ was honest enough to quit and confess myself that I haven't any romance II* erature appetite, as far as I can see, ^ except for your books." , ll{ . ^ Nature's Wwdrous Ways. d One of the most curious of nature's 3 inventions is that of an egg that can't roll off a shelf. It is at>solutely impor- 9 tant to a certain species of seabird? ft the murre. This feathered creature ft builds no nest, hut lays its eggs on nnitow shelves of j reclpitous rocks, j Ordinary ejrgs?those of the domestic hen, for example, ii ueposited in such ^ places, would he liaUe to roll off ad smash. But the murre's Qgy; is of such j u sh.'mp that- if disturbed it simply rolls in a circle. Such being the case, rhe female murre experiences no anxiety. She could incubate her progeny >n an ordinary mantelpiece and be sat* E isJed of their safety. ft 1 MtiWinitO I U;i v V? i uiik>iiwk. i Much Time is L)*i\/ou*a to Preparation of DevcrS'ie, or W?-ich *i here /mv hian/ varieties.

EDUCATION OF THE STREETS Children With Poor Environments Stand Low in Higher Forms of Intelligence, Tests Show. It is a common belief that the chilIren of the poorer classes in lnrge cites acquire a certnin amount of valua >le education by running the streets. Lctual tests usually indicate, however. ays the Journal of Heredity, that such hildren stand very low in all the hi^hr forms of intelligence, and this mijrht lave been suspected from an examinaion of the environment in which thoy re brought up. Association with oklr poople is one of the most important actors in a child's education; but in 1 -? -3 1 * ? ? n no poorer classes me uwcimus axe o small that a child must spend most f his waking hours outside, and nowhere does he come in close contact rith many older persons of ability. No matter how much one may adlire the development of modern indusriaV society, he can hardly believe that : offers a full and rich environlent in which a child may "unfold." f a child had inherited ability (and lanv of the children who roam the treets have not) it could hardly be ailed into full play Dy tne stimulus f a modern city street which, com- j ared with the country, offers little :>r a child to do.

An old nesro mammy, working for n family, was observed not to eat the fish i:l:at was served at dinner. "What's the matter with the fish, auntie?" the mistress inquired. "Ah (loan* see how you dare eat it." she resiled. '*You nevah saw its head. How you know but what it had the head of a human?" ! Once in a while we get back (hut J way to the world our ancestors lived in. What a wonderful advenvre life must have been to them! Tli\jy never knew when they might see a humanheaded fish, or a centaur or a dragon. They wouldn't have been surprised at a dryad stepping out of a tree. There must have been b. certain exhilaration about that kind of uncertainty that we miss nowadays. A better knowledge of the way nature works has taken a good deal of the childlike romance out of life. We get a faint reflection of it in the mild superstitions that most of us cling to?in our beliefs in magic numbers, in the harm of seeing the new moon over the left shoulder, in the influence of the dark of the moon.

WHAT SPY MAY DO IN WAR j Ethics of "Profession" Make It Permissible for Him to Wear the Uniform of the Enemy. Irritating the bugle-calls of the enemy is quite legitimate; so is the wearing of their uniform, with one reservation. A soldier may not fire on the j eneny while so attired. But he may , advance or retreat, build bridges and j perform any other military operation | ? 9 XT I { snoit or actual ngnung, using uie umforn as a means of deception. A soldier may spy as much as he like 5. If he worms his way into the j enemy's lines he is only doing his duty, j and, if captured there, may not be ! punished beyond being taken an ordinary prisoner, provided he is wearing a u aiform. If he is in any kind of disguise he may be shot. In the course of his spying he may kill as many of the enemy as ne can. When he approaches the sentries he may stab them in the dark, or use any trick to throw them oft' their guard except one. He may not say "friend" if the sentry challenges him (unless, of coirse, lie intends to surrender). { Similarly, if suddenly attacked, he may not tfs?. ar?v words to make the j enemy believe thnt he is a friend in disguise, r::?l ro tr.ke him unawares. His Wife's Temper. I have seen, especially among the leisure class, capricious and ill-tempered women whose husbands lived in constant dread of a scene of some sort, says a writer in the Woman's Home Companion. There, poor, downtrodden men spent their days in placating their wives, in side-stepping - . \ - ?-L'- l I tenpers ana tears wim um' -.-uug ninbleness, or in exercising a pauc^t kiadness less degrading to them and deeply touching to ftll spectators. Such m*n are always pitied by the whole community in which they live, but this pity is a subtle form of contempt. The sympathetic community feels that sidestepping a wife's moods is a fcoor way for a live man to be spending his days. When, however, a man blights the life of his household in a similar way, the commiseration which his wife receives is small, especially if he happens to be that which is so aptly termed "a good provider." In fact, the feeling of the community eloquently refects my mother's attitude; that it is a "woman's business to make her home }%J ~~ _ r - 'Business Man Praises KtUbo nvai i Successful Merchant After Investigation Found a Remedy That Restored His Health.
