COSTS MONEY TO SELL HOGS Farmer Out $2.85 by Rebuylng Hams and Shoulders. Salem, N. J., Feb. 8—A farmer brought two hogs to a local butcher and - offered them for sale. A price was quickly agreed on and the farmer said he would sell, but wanted the hams and shoulders. To this the butcher was willing and after the weight had been taken the desired parts of the hogs were cut off and handed to the farmer, who asked for the balance coming to him. After fig- uring & moment the butcher replied, “You owe me $2.85.” The butcher had bought the hogs at wholesale price and charged the far- mer retail rates for the parts he re- served. In effect, the farmer had made the butcher a present of two hogs and had then paid him $2.85 for certain parts of them. MOST ORDERLY OF ITS SIZE Paterson, N. J., Home of Anarchists, Has Few Arrests.

A strike at this time, they say, just before the municipal fight is preeipi- tated and with the Detroit United rail- ways harassed by the present fram- chises and the subsequent temporary arrangement would be more than the company could stand.

ADVIGE TO MOTHERS -|A Message From a Famous Beauty Specialist to Women Lacking in Energy and Vitality. Thousands of women vainly at- tempt to improve their complex- ions and to remove blackheads, crows’ feet and other blemishes, through the use of cosmetics. This treatment fails because the trou- ble lies far deeper than the skin. They are suffering from impure; and impoverished blood, This condition is in many cases due toa catarrhal condition of the whole system which finds its expression in sallow, muddy -complexion, dark-circled eyes, general weak- ness of the system, and perhaps most plainly in the weeping of mucous membranes that is com- monly called catarrh, In fact this whole tendency is, properly speaking, Catarrh. Ban- ish this catarrh, and the complex- ion will clear as if by magic, eyes will brighten, faces become rosy and shoulders erect. Perfect beauty goes only with perfect health, and - perfect-health for wo- men can only be obtained through one certain treatment—that which will cure catarrh. Mme. Swift, New York, the fa- mous beauty specialist known throughout the world and an ac- cepted authority on all relating thereto, states that the one posi- tive and permanent relief for ca- tarrh is Rexall Mucu-Tone, Here is her letter: “I can strongly endorse the claims made for Rexall Mucu-Tone as a cure for systemic catarrh, Its tonic effects are remarkable, It builds up the strength and restores vitality. If women who are tired and run down, lacking in energy and vitality, will use Rexall Mu- cu-Tone, they will praise as I do its strengthening and healing qualities,” Rexall Mucu-Tone works through the blood, acting thus up- on the mucous cells—the conges- tion and inflamation of which causes local catarrh, This remedy causes poison to be expelled from the system, and the blood is puri- fied and revitalized. Thus the natural functions of the muceus cells are restored, and the mem- branes are cleansed and made strong. We know that Rexall Mucu-Tone does relieve catarrh. We positively guarantee to refund the money paid us for this remedy in every case where the user is dissatisfied. It is a builder of vigorous health, and a creator of good complexions. Price 50 cents and $1+00 per bnttle. Mail orders filled. It may be obtained only at our store,—The Rexall Store. Barker’s Drug Store.
