It is a singular thing that tn the popular view of disease the interdependence of the several organs of the bodv is lost sieht ot. ine neart, tor example, is diseased and it is treated as if it were entirely separated from, and independent of, every other organ. The fallacy of this, opinion is shown by the cures of heart "trouble," liver "trouble," kidney "trouble" and. other so called "troubles," effected by the use of Dr.

Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Primarily the "Discovery" is a medicine for the cure of diseases of the stomach and blood. But it cures diseases of organs seemingly remote from the stomach, because these diseases have their origin in a diseased condition of the stomach and its associated organs of digestion and nutrition.

Yates, Plttstoa Stroh' Pharmacy, West Plttstoa. THE VALUE OF FOOD. Wark at Saaltary Cheaalsis Car the Health the Baa. The old theory that the best food for man Is that whiah bis appetite demands still considered good enough for the government of people In the ordinary walks of life, although discarded as worthless when any definite call Is made upon the human machine. The training table, for example, bis shown that when some special effort Is expected from the college athlete intelligent discrimination the selection of his daily food means Immense gain In physical strength and endurance, and upon the same principle pecial hospital diet Is ordered by the pbysicisn in order that bis patients may have tbe best possible chance of recovery.

Although the public Is generally indif ferent to the advantage of food reform. students of the subject are confident that the reform will eventually come, and they are preparing the way by an exhaustive analysis of all sorts of materials and foodstuffs which are likely to be utilized for the sustenance of the race. The study of sanitary chemistry, as it is un dertaken, for example, at the Massachu setts Institute ot Technology, not only establishes the comparative value of food stuffs, but also determines, by the chem ical analysis of air and water, bow these factors may be made most efficient In the maintenance of public health. As a typical food milk contains all the elements necessary. for sustaining life and used as tbe basis In tbe calculations of comparative values.

It has been found aaperunent that milk contains certain definite proportions ot nitrogenous sub stances, fats and carbohydrates. These elements can be measured and tabulated they appear in other foods, so that a sanitary dietary becomes merely a matter mathematics. By reference to tables is learned that butter, which contains per cent ot fat, contains no carbohy drates and only 1 per cent of nitrogenous substance, while dried peas, which may contain less than 2 per cent of fat, may bare 67 per cent of carbohydrates and 28 per cent of nitrogenous substance, so that butter and peas may be logically com bined. Walnuts contain but 2 per ceul water and no refuse, while In beets. cabbages, carrots and green corn tbe wa and refuse amount to mora tbaa 00 per cent.

Even in potatoes there Is 20 per cent refuse and 62 per cent of water, which rives them a nutritive value far below that of figs snd practically the same as that of bananas. 1 et potatoes and otbei similar vegetables are valuable forma of fond, though less concentrated tban generally supposed. In a list of 100 Mirts of food material the watermelon placed fit the bottom, as containing but i' cent ot nutritive element. All such determinations, however, deal with fowls of a standard quality, sad no wincr has tbo sanitary chemist estsb lished dietary laws tban he must, in bit mi jiiFtihratmn. expose tbe adulters inn.

dt'triiorstion and misrepresentation the materials to be used and finally see lui ihey are properly prepared for tht able. While the public is tlow to ac 'rpt tbe results of such investigations. iends of tile reform movement find com fort in the fact that sanitary chcruistr) ins become a recognized course of stud; the leading i ddcutioD.nl institutions of be country.

Vosburg, of Scranton, of his candidacy for the Re publican nomination for Judge. He will probably be Judge Carpenter's most formidable opponent Richard Heckscher, a well known anthracite operator, died In Philadelphia, aged 79 years.
