The Minnesota Public Health Association Jou'rl_ib!" devotes & page of a 'Tecent issue to the annalysing’ of “Sanatogen.” It proclaims this patent medicine as being 95 per cent cottage cheese and § per cent glycerine. Cottage cheese is being quoted as worth 13 cents a pound and glycerine about 50 cents per ] pound. A pound mixed in the above proportions makes the cost about 15 cents per pound, which, when made into “Sanatogen,” selling at $4.50 per pound, makes the mixing process come to $4.36. In order to reduce the cost of high living we recom- mend that users buy their glycerine at their drug- gists and the cottage cheese from their grocer and use the egg beater at home as & mixer. If you haven’t a mixer, patronize your hardware dealer. Then take regularly before or after or ylt'h your meals a delicious appetiser, which might be called “Glyso-Cheeso.” et () ees AGAIN WE SAY “BOOST.” As in every community, there are some “epoak-ors,” and ours is no exception. If we will but remember that the frog holds the title ss “King of Croakers” and that all he does is to hop from one mudpuddle into another, we will come to the realization that mothing can be accomplished by crosking. Let’s get out of the mud snd keep out. Stay on dry land, or better still, do our shouting from the house tops. Boost, is the slogan of all prosperous cities, and we have no apologies to offer for lack of them here. PRESS COMMENTS—THAT'S ALL (By BXCEANGR EDITOR) NOONAN’S NOO NOONETTES.

A short time ago a big Chicago mail order house called its stockholders together and declared a specidl dividend' of 20 per cent. ‘That was'fh addi- tion to one regular dividénd already paid this year and to snother that will be declared at the end of the year.
