Safety Razors Save Time and Money.

A Safety Razor for the People

It is equal to any Five Dollar Razor as far as shaving results are concerned. From the standpoint of utility and simplicity, it is equal to anything now on the market.

The MODEL Safety Razor

[blocks in formation]

Simplicity of Construction.

The "MODEL" SAFETY RAZOR is composed of a one-piece holder, heavily nickeled and polished, an ebonoid handle and a keen steel blade. This last differs from the very thin safety blades now on the market, inasmuch as it is heavy enough to shave properly without vibrating, and therefore does not require an extra support to obviate this trouble.

The steel for the "MODEL" blades is prepared after a special formula and is automatically hardened, tempered, ground, honed and stropped. It therefore passes through the same processes as the best Sheffield razor, with the only difference that an output running into the millions, with automatic machinery specially invented for the purpose, has made it possible to produce these blades at a nominal price. Each blade after passing through twenty-seven (27) distinct processes, is carefully inspected and re-inspected. It must cut a thin hair quickly and without any "pull." Otherwise it is absolutely discarded.

The careful manufacture above mentioned, together with this rigid inspection, produces a blade which will average fifteen soft and easy shaves. Some blades will give even more, while others may run somewhat less. At any rate, six extra blades being retailed for 25c., the price of the average shave may be set down at about one-fourth of a cent.

The "MODEL" SAFETY RAZOR is selfadjusting. The blade is inserted between two small lugs, and securely snapped into place. The corners are entirely protected, making it impossible to gash the face, as too often occurs when using other forms of safety razors. No other safety razor can be cleaned so quickly.

The ebonoid handle is absolutely waterproof, and is provided with a nickeled ferrule.

CLUB RATE:-We will send one "Model" Safety Razor and seven blades and the Columbus Medical Journal one year for $1.40 cash with order. You may extend your subscription one year and receive it for $1.40 cash with order, if already a subscriber.

Drinking of Water.

The drinking of much water tends to increase the watery secretions of the body, such as the urine, bile, saliva, pancreatic juice, and sweat. It thus aids in the excretion of the waste products. The benefit derived from the courses of mineral waters in a large measure is due to the liberal quantity of water consumed. Gout, urinary gravel, imperfect secretions of bile, constipation, etc., are conditions benefited thereby.-AUGUSTUS CAILLE, M. D., In "Differential Diagnosis and Treatment of Disease."

To Prevent Hydrophobia.

By ORA RODGERS, Gentian, Georgia.

Dr. Arapod Bokai, professor at the University of Klansenburg, claims to have compounded a solution which completely neutralizes the poison introduced into the system by the bite of a mad dog. This solution consists of chlorine water, salt brine, sulphurous acid, permanganate of potassium and eucalyptus oil.-NEW ORLEANS PICAYUNE.

Permanent Water Bed.

The ermanent bath or Hebra's water bed, is used for many skin diseases and other conditions. A tub long enough and deep enough to accommodate the prone body is arranged on legs like a bed, and a woven wire support upon which the patient lies is arranged on cogs so that it can be raised or lowered into the tub without disturbing him. A head rest is provided so that the patient's head may be out of the water. In some cases the patient is left in the water continuously for months. The water should be warm, of about the temperature of the body, and it is changed by means of entrance and exit facilities about three times in twenty-four hours. The water may be medicated. In general it is employed for those conditions where a

large surface is denuded of epithelium, as in ulcerative syphilides, psoriasis universalis, pemphigus foliaceus, dermatitis exruber acuminatus unifoliativa, lichen versalis, pityriasis rubra universalis, icthyosis, etc. In burns or injuries from freezing, gangrene, diabetes, endarteritis obliterans, phlegmon, urinary infiltration, decubitus, spondylitis, caries, etc., the permanent bath is of great benefit-AUGUSTUS CAILLE, M. D.

DR. W. R. C. LATSON, Editor of Health-Culture

H

EALTH is a most valuable asset. With it you can meet any strain or stress that may come to you. Be ready for the emergencies of life and able to do your best. Without it one cannot prosper or be happy. Health is within the reach of all. It is simply a matter of knowing something about how to live and the right use of Food, Air, Exercise and the Mind. Living to be well makes life a delight, not a burden. The person who is well does not have to sacrifice the joys of living; only the sick do that.

HEALTH-CULTURE is edited by Dr. W. R. C. Latson, a wellknown authority, and one of the brightest and most advanced writers of the day on the Art of Living. It is opposed to the use of drugs which never cure, vaccination and needless operations..

HEALTH-CULTURE stands for higher ideals of life and better living and all that is implied by this. Its aim will be to make men and women better Physically, Mentally and Morally, to save the lives of children, adding to the length of life and to the value of human existence by increasing the ability to accomplish and enjoy. One of Life's Essentials is the proper use of food, what to eat to meet the various conditions of life, what is best for the growing child, the active adult and the more sedentary aged. The consideration of this is an important feature of HEALTH-CULTURE, but as it cannot be considered fully, a work on this subject has been issued which admirably supplements the magazine.

THE PHYSICIAN OF MANY YEARS' EXPERIENCE

KNOWS THAT, TO OBTAIN IMMEDIATE RESULTS

THERE IS NO REMEDY LIKE

SYR. HYPOPHOS. CO., FELLOWS.

MANY Medical Journals SPECIFICALLY MENTION THIS
PREPARATION AS BEING OF STERLING WORTH.

TRY IT, AND PROVE THESE FACTS.

SPECIAL NOTE.-Fellows' Syrup is never old in bulk.

It can be obtained of chemists and pharmacists everywhere.

CAUTION!

Whenever the true merit of a preparation is authoritatively established, imitation is sure to make its pernicious appearance. To counteract the injurious results of another of these fraudulent proceedingsin this instance affecting firm name and reputationSANDER & SONS have been compelled to appeal to law, and in the action tried before the Supreme Court of Victoria, the testimony of a sworn witness revealed the fact that this witness suffered intense irritation from the application to an ulcer of the defendant's product, which was palmed off as "just as good" as SANDER'S EUCALYPTOL. SANDER & SONS had the satisfaction to obtain a verdict with costs against this imitator, who is perpetually restrained from continuing his malpractice.

Dr. Owen, in a report to the Medical Society of Victoria, and Dr. I. Benjamin, in the Lancet, London, both denounced, as others did before, on the strength of negative results, the application of unspecified eucalyptus products.

This forms convincing proof that only an authoritatively sanctioned article can be relied upon.

The Purpose of Athletics.

Be athletic? Yes. But why? Is the purpose of athletics only to produce athletes? What is an athlete? One who gained a more or less special control of the body.

What is the use of having special control of the body? The only rational use is the performance of some special function in the world. Other things being equal, an athlete In writing to advertisers, please mention

SANDER & SONS' EUCALYPTOL

(Eucalypti Extract)

1. Has stood the test of Government investigation. 2. It was proved at the Supreme Court of Victoria by experts to be an absolutely pure and scientific standardized preparation.

3. It is honored by Royal Patronage.

4. It always produces definite therapeutic results. Therefore, to safeguard the physicians' interests and to protect their patients, we earnestly request to specify "SANDER'S EUCALYPTOL" when prescribing eucalyptus.

The Meyer Bros. Drug Co., St. Louis, Mo., agents, will forward one original package (1 oz.) on receipt of One Dollar.

is better fitted for life's privileges than the untrained man. His muscles are stronger, his nerve is steadier, his self-control is greater, his decisions are quicker-in short, he can do things better than he could before his physical discipline.

If now the athlete uses his increased power over his bodily forces to some good end in life, his athletics are worth while. Otherwise, not.
