Letters from Prominent Physicians
addressed to Chas. H. Fletcher.
Dr. F. Gerald Blattner, of Buffalo, N. Y., Bays: “Your Castoria Is good
for children and I frequently prescribe it, always obtaining the desired
results."
Dr. Gustave A. Eisengraeber, of St Paul, Minn., says: *T have used
your Castoria repeatedly In my practice with good results, and can recom-
mend it as an excellent, mild and harmless remedy for children.'*
Dr. E. J. Dennis, of St. Louis, Mo., says: “I have used and prescribed
your Castoria in my sanitarium and outside practice for a nu.abcr of yean
and find it to be an excellent remedy for children.”
Dr. S. A. Buchanan, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: “I have used your Cas-
toria In the case of riy own baby and find it pleasant to take, and have
obtained excellent results from its use.”
Dr. J. E. Simpson, of Chicago, Ill., says: "I have used your Castoria in
cases of colic in children and have found it the best medicine of its kind
on the market.”
Dr. R. E. Eskildson, of Omaha, Neb., says: “I find your Castoria to be a
standard family remedy. It is the best thing for infanta and children I
have ever known and I recommend IL”
Dr. L. R. Robinson, of Kansas City, Mo., says: “Your Castoria certainly
has merit Is not its age, its continued use by mothers through all these
years, and the many attempts to imitate It, sufficient recommendation?
5Vhat can a physician add? Leave it to the mothers.”
Dr. Edwin F. Pardee, of New York City, says: “For several years I have
recommended your Castoria and shall always continue to do so, as it haa
Invariably produced beneficial results.”
Dr. N. B. Sizer, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: “I object to what are calledl
patent medicines, where maker alone knows what ingredients are put in
them, but I know the formula of your Castoria and advise its use.”
GENUINE CASTORIA ALWAYS
Bears the Signature of
Smokers Shown by Handwriting.
Mr. Saunders, a former schoolmap
ter, told the British house of lords
committee on juvenile smoking that
he could detect smokers by their
handwriting—that of boys who smoked
being a loose, flabby kind. Handwrit-
ing be said, was a cinematograph of
the heart.

"A number of ladies were seated In

“ ’Yes,’ answered a companion,

World's Cotton Consumption.
The consumption of cotton from
1893 to 1898 averaged only 9,000.000
bales annually in the whole world, but
from 189* to 1903 the average was 10,-
684.146 bales annually, and the aver-
age price was three cents per pound
greater than for the previous period.
If the consumption Increases at the
same ratio during the next five year
period the average will be nearly 13,-
000.000 bales annually, and the prices
will be much higher than in the pre-
vious period. This indicates a pros-
perous future for the cotton producer
and manufacturer, as well as for the
export trade.

Grocer Was Getting Even.
“That was tit for tat with a ven-
gean< p. ’ said Walter Christie, the au-
tomobilist, apropos of a quarrel be-
tween two French chauffeurs. "It re-
minds me of a grocer I used to know
in Paint Roek. This grocer went over
to the jeweler’s one day to get a new
crystal put on his watch. The latter
as he fitted and cleaned the crystal
suddenly fli shed. He bit his lip and
frowned. His hand trembled so that
he could hardly go on with his task.
Finally, bar ding the watch to the gro-
cer, the jeweler said in a restrained
voice: Bef pardon, but didn’t I just
see you put a couple of rings and a
scarf pin In your pocket?”
“ Sure you did,’ said the grocer,
boldly. ‘Whfn you come to my place

Everything goes wrong if the break-

can’t digest it—it turns to poison.
A brigh; lady teacher found this to
be true, even of an ordinary light
breakfast of eggs and toast. She
says:
“Two years ago I contracted a very
annoying form of indigestion. My
stom.*cn was in such a condition that
a simple brehkfast of fruit, toast and
egg gave me great distress.

could come from such a simple diet
