The Bulletin. 



Since patent medicines are injurious to the cells of which the body is com- 

 posed, and since health is the foundation of all prosperity and happiness, let 

 us not only keep the nostrums outside our homes, but let us do \yhi\t we can 

 to enlighten others as to their dangers. 



Every life has a value in dollars and cents. Every life has a value that 

 cannot 'be measured in dollars and cents. I speak conservatively, therefore, 

 when I sav that bringing about the abolition of the poisons, frauds, and fakes 

 from our 'land is a cause worthy of our thoughtful activities. One honest 

 druggist in Chicago displayed a sign in his window which read : 



PLEASE DO NOT ASK US 



ANY OLD 



What is PATENT Worth? 



MEDICINE 



For you embarrass us, as our honest answer 

 must be that 



IT IS WOETHLESS! 



If you mean to ask at what price we sell it, that 

 is an entirely different proposition. 



When sick, consult a good physician. It is 

 the only proper course. And you will find it 

 cheaper in the end than self-medication with 

 worthless "patent" nostrums. 



Can you not convince your druggist to do likewise? 



HINTS ON SAVING TIME. 



By Mlss Minnie L. Jamison, State Normal and Industriat. College. 



I have come to vou this morning in the hope that by an exchange of ideas 

 we may be able to'do better planning in the home, and by thought and system 

 be able to save time for the development of our higher natures— time for 

 reading, meditation, and for exchanging ideas with those around us. 



There are two classes of home-makers in the world to-day. In one class 

 the work is well planned and carried out. The woman in charge of this home 

 knows the value of planning and system, and she works to a successful issue 

 in every detail. On the other hand, her neighbor may work apparently much 

 harder "and accomplish far less, because she works without a plan. You may 

 be mentally asking, "What does she know about work on a farm?" I am 

 glad to say that I have spent more than half of my life on a farm in Ro\yau 

 County in'this State, in the days, too. wlicn farmers were not so progressive.
