Dunlap, of Dekalb, Mo., to send the fotlowing signed statement to the St. Joseph, Mo., News Press: "The readers of the News-Press, especially those suffering from gallstones, stomach trouble and appendicitis, will find in Fruitola and Traxo a permanent cure. After suffering for three years the most excruciating pain from gall-stones I found this wonderful remedy and am now in perfect health and have been for almost four years. Never have any symp toms of the old trouble. 1 had been told by three doctors that nothing but an operation would save me. I knowseveral who have undergone an operation but still have frail-stones. This medicine is an oil which softens the stones and cures the liver. It can be bought at any drug store." Fruitola is an intestinal lubricant that softens the congested masses, disintegrates the hardened particles, that cause so much suffering, and expels the accumulation to the patient's great relief.

The New York Journal of Commerce prints a list of .14 firms that are now engaged in making dyestuffs in the United States. It quotes from an additional report on the dyestuffs situation recently issued by Dr. Thos. H. Norton, special agent of the Department of Commerce, who has been detailed to study the conditions surrounding and affecting the development of a domestic dye industry.

Dr. Norton gives assurance 1 that the home supply of the crudes 1 "has now assumed large proportions. 1 Aniline in itself, he says, when des- 1 tined for use in dying aniline black, should be classed as a finished dye- 1 stuff. When noting that a single firm, 1 such as the Edison company, is turn- 1 ing out <?9 tons of aniline each month, 1 it is possible to grasp what is being done to lay the foundations for a com- 1 prehensive American dyestuff indus- 1 try.
