The Amount of Wear

that a boy gets out of a suit of clothes depends mostly oil how the suit is made. If it is cheaply made, lined with a weak, flimsy lining it certainly will not give good satisfaction and wear.

Hercules Suits for Boys

are guaranteed to you to be all pure wool and shower proof. They are made to give satisfaction and to give service. The coats have a double lining in the sleeve at the arm pit, as shown. They are lined with a double warped Italian cloth. Will not fray out or wear full of holes. Try a Hercules if you have never bought one.

You'll save money.

His Mistake

"I haven't been in town for some time and by mistake I went into tbe New Store where I was received so pleasantly and treated so good and loyal and everything sold at such reasonably low prices that I could not afford to send away for my goods as I have been doing and after this believe me I'm going to trade at the New Store." The above remarks were overheard on tbe street one day this week being uttered by a well known farmer near Exira.

Saccharin Valueless'

The recent decision of the U. 8. Department of Agriculture in declaring one of the Chemist's greatest discoveries as of no value is far reaching in its effect.

The use of Saccharin as an economic sweetening agent in thirty or more food products is to be abandoned. Saccharin has been used to sweeten canned corn, peas and potatoes, sarsaparilla, Cream Soda, and other soft beverages champagne and liquors. Its use will be unlawful after July 1,1911. Saccharin has a chemical name, benzoic sulfinide. It is extensively used in households, to sweeten the food of diabetic subjects, an extremely small tablet being equal in sweetness to a large lump of sugar when used in coffee, tea or cocoa. Pure saccharin ia 550 times as sweet as sugar. A sweet taste may be imparted to 70,000 parts of water.— Albert H. Worth B. S., In Scientic American May 20th.
