END OF A RED NOSE
New Flesh-Colored Product That
Heals and Hides Skin Imperfec
tions.
A peculiar feature of poslam, a new
skin discovery, is that it is naturally
flesh-colored and contains no grease,
so that when used on the face for
the complexion, or for pimples, red
noses, or any other inflammations,
blemisnei or discolorations. Its pres
ence cannot be detected. It can thus
be applied in the daytime, the natural
color of the skin being immediately
restored and the actual healing and
accomplished in a few
flays. ,It can be had of any pharma
cist who sells pure drugs. The Cab
aniss Drug company make a specialty
of it. Fifty cents’ worth will answer
either for the troubles mentioned or
In curing ordinary cases of eczema.

CLEANLINESS AND THRIFT
CHARACTERIZE ABATTOIR
If Phil Armour, the great packing
house man who boasted that he saved
everything of the hog except the
squeal, and who claims the credit for
being the first man to discover that
the hog possessed four hams instead
of two, as had been" commonly ac*,
cepted before, could go through the
plant of # the Augusta abattoir, -he
would see his teachings being well
carried out.
To a reporter of The Herald who
visited the plant the system employ
ed was a revelation. Qleanliness
and thrift are the two words which
express the conditions prevailing at
the abattoir. Every care Is taken
that nothing Is lost. The same pains
is taken that nothing approaching un
cleanliness be permitted.
This matter of cleanliness is im
pressed upon the visitor as he ap
proaches the plant. The odor of the
slaughter pen of some years ago is
absent, and remains missing through
out the entire inspection. Before one
enters the gate of the yard enclosing
the grounds be sees a lane passing
outside the yard and away from the
slaughter places, cooling rooms, etc.,
through which the cattle pass in be
ing carried to the pens in the rear.
The live cattle are not allowed to
come within a considerable distance
of the parts of the plant devoted to
the dressing of the meat after it is
killed.
This is typical of the entire sys
-1 tern. A government inspector is on
duty nearly all the time and no ani
mal may be slaughtered while he Is
absent. To slaughter or dress one
without his presence would be an in
fraction of Uncle Sam’s laws.
In the rear of the slaughter house
and the rooms where the cattle, hogs,
etc., are dressed for market, and at
a considerable distance, are the pens,
well roofed and protected, in which
the cattle and hogs are kept and fed
until time for slaughtering them.
These pens are cleaned daily, being
floored with concrete paving which
admits of being readily washed off
with a strong flow of water. Each
of the pens has its number so that
the cattle in it may be kept check
on regularly.
From the pens the hogs and cattle
are driven up to the slaughter place.
In the case of the cattle they are im
mediately trussed up by machinery,
in position for being dressed by the
expert handlers, before being carried
to the cooling 100 ms. The process
is somewhat different in case of the
hogs, which are dun pad into a vat of
hot water after they are killed. They
are then rolled onto a table where
are quickly cleaned of their hair, and
then In turn passed along to he dress
ed.
It is during this dressing process
that the government inspector gats in
his best work. He examines close
ly every carcass, and if he is at all
doubtful about one, he orders It into
a small room near his office for
closer Inspection. The carcass is car
ried into this room by means of a
switoh from the overhead track by
which the meat is handled and moved
from one place to another about the
plant. This room is lined with sheet
steel, and has special apparatus for
the handling of the condemned meat.
When a carcass Is condemned the man
who handled It is obliged to imme
j diately turn over all of his knives and
| other Implements to he sterilized.
I The men are not permitted to work
j in the same clothes they use outside
i the plant.
,| Nothing is lost in the plant. In
jlact it is from the by-products of the
J slaughter, sometimes called the
| “Fifth quarter" that the real profits
of the institution comos. The plant
receives 30 cents apiece for the
slaughter of cattle and 15 cents
apiece for the slaughter of hogs,
sheep, etc. It also receives all parts
of the animal except the salable
meat. From the part that the abat
ELKS BANQUET WILL
BE ft FINE
AFFAIR
Excellent Menu Has Been
Prepared For the Affair
Tuesday Evening.
The preparations for the Elks’ ban
quet Tuesday night have been com
pleted. It will be one of the best
sociables tha tthe Elks have ever
given, due to the interest taken and
work done by the committee in
charge of the work. Mr. J. Harry
Johnson, chairman of the commitee,
announces thot everything is in fine
shape. He says there are still many
of the members of the lodge who
are in good standing that have not
asked for their extra ticket. If they
want them, Mr. C. R. Dance, a mem
ber of the committee, has them.
Every member in good standing
will be given a ticket, which is good
for a lady. Gentlemen will not be
admitted on the ticket. A verv elab
orate menu has been gotten up for
the occasion. The menu follows:
Oysters on the Half Shell
Oyster Cocktail a Da France
Queen Olives Pickles
Turkey Salad on Lettuce
Sliced Turkey with French Dressing
Celery
Delmonico Rolls Beaten Biscuit
Salted Almonds
Creßms
Ice Cream—Elks Style

toir keeps comes the tripe, chitter
lings, edible tallow’, lard, etc.
Bnt this is not all. The horns are
carefully put away to one side as are
the hoofs. The horns are sold to
the manufacturers of turquois combs
atd similar articles. The horns are,
boiled in oil and pressed out, colored
and polished until they are ready to
cut in the many salable shapes as
seen in the stores. These processes
are not done at the abattoir, of
course, but tjie abattoir does furnish
the raw material, that is the horns.
The hoofs are sold to the glue manu
facturers who make a very superior
quality of glue from the. Certain
bones about the cow’ and other ani
mals are separated from the rest and
sold to the manufacturers of tooth
brush handles and the like. While it
is not yet been done, it will be as
soon as the number of animals
slaughtered warrant it, the switches
from the cows tails wilf be sold to
manufacturers of cheap hair goods,
like the make-up used in amateur
theatricals, etc.
From the slaughter place and the
dressing rooms, the blood runs off
with the water that is used in wash
ing the meat, and is collected in
great vats at a distance. This in
turn is boiled and the blood rises to
the top and is taken of the fertilizer
turned out by the plant. Other parts
of this fertilizer are made from the
otherwise useless bones of the ani
mals, after they together with the
other parts have been thoroughly
cooked to get all the oil out df them.
The bones are ground in special ma
chines before being added to the fer
tilizer.
In addition to the making of tal
low’s, etc., over which an especially
rigid inspection is made, a fine qual
ity of neats foot oil is manufactured,
together with other qualities of fats
and oils down to the soap grease
which is skimmed off the waste be
fore being finally allowed to escape.
The plant is presided over by Mr.
F. F. Reuping who was brought here
from Colorado City’, to superintend
the physical operation of the concern.
He is an expert in his line knowing
every feature of the business down
to the point of being able to tell from
the shades of color of the meat of
the slaughtered cattle what it had
been fed upon, whether grass, cot
ton seed hulls or the like. Every
piece of meat is inspected by the gov
ernment inspector before being pass
ed into the cooling room where it is
at the disposition of the owners. The
inspector tags each piece of meat as
it is passed by him and the tag is an
absolute guarantee of its purity.
The plant has a capacity of taking
care of 400 head rff cattle and hogs
a day. It has been capitalized at
SIO,OOO but the capitalization Is now
being raised to $25,000. It is planned
to add a packing house feature to
the plant which will make its opera
tion much more economical, and renu
meratlve. The plant not only draws
its supplies from this section but gets
many of its cattle from Tennessee.
Mr. M. R. Hayes is president, of
the company. Mr. C. J. Crawford is
vice-president. Mr. J. H. Milligan is
secretary. Mr. R. H Easterling is
treasurer.
The Man Who
Eats Well
And Enjoys Food Lives Life as He
Should and Gets the Most
From It.
The man who eats is the man who
works, and the man who works is
the man who wins. Tireless work
ers depend upon a storehouse of vim
and vigor. India is noted for its
fasters and its dreamers, Europe and
America for their eaters and their
workers.
In America we have been doing
nothing but work this past quarter
of a century. That is why our old
men say, "In my days no one had
dyspepsia." Of course, all men in
those days ate and worked, now they
work and eat.
If eating interferes with business,
men give up eating. This is good
logic for the dollar-getter, but poor
wisdom for the man who really wants
to live.
Abuse of anything God given results
in punishment, and man is a pigmy
when it comes to cheating his sys
tem.
If you take from the system that
which is intended should remain, or
put into it that which is intended
should be kept out, you are cheating
your self, and sooner or later pay
the penalty.
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets are con
centrated vegetable and fruit es
sences which give the system every
fluid, stimulant and ingredient ne
cessary to gain the fullest strength
from everything which goes into the
stomach, or to keep from the Bystem
everything which should not lay and
decay in it.
If you will eat fast and improper
ly, If you will drink and eat irregu
larly and to excess, then give to Na
ture as you do so enough of the
essences she demands to neutralize
the bad effects of your habits.
After a meal take a Stuart Dys
pepsia Tablet, and the meal won’t
hurt you or your stomach.
At a midnight dinner take a Stu
art tablet and you will sleep well and
get up without a breath which is fill
ed with the decay of the midnight
meal.
Fortify your stomach like you do
your business. Fortunes when lost
can be regained, but the stomach out
raged stays with you to the finish,
and you know it Is there.
If you want to know what these
tablets will do, buy a package from
any druggist, price 50 cents, or send
us your name and address and we
will send you a trial package free my

THE AUGUSTA HERALr
POSTCARDS GOING
TO DEAD LETTER 1
OFFICE
Many Cards Are Decorated
Overmuch and Are Made
Contrary To Uncle Sam's
P. O. Rules.
Every now and then Uncle Sam
finds it necessary to call attention
from the patrons of his many thous
and postoffices to the fact that cer
tain varieties of gaily bedizened post
cards are unmailable, by reason by
their menace to mail clerks’ eyes, and
lungs, and tonsils, etc.
Already the list of varieties runs
way into the thousands, hut in nearly
every new’ issue there are some which
Uncle Sam forbids. In their zeal to
make postcards attractive, the manu
facturers are not always as careful
to remember certain prohibited meth
ods of decoration as they might oth
erwise be, and the result is that much
of their product eventually finds its
way to the dead letter office at Wash
ington.
Among the latest nuisances In this
line out are post cards bearing par
ticles of glass, metal, mica, sand,
tinsel and other similar substances.
Like cards have been in use for
some time and the postal authorities
are just beginning to ascertain they
are dangerous to the health and also
the eyes of those handling the mails.
For this reason the authorities feel
called on to promulgate certain rules
! governing the mailing of these cards.
The rules follow:
“Cards bearing particles of glass,
metal, mica, saud, tinsel, or other
similar substances, are unmailable,
except when enclosed in envelopes
tightly sealed to prevent the escapo
of such, particles, or when treated in
s’Ach a. manner as will prevent the
objectionable substances from bcifig
rubbed off or injuring persons that
are handling the mails.
“Cards treated in accordance with
this requirement will have to be pre
paid at the first class rate, 2 cents
for each ounce or fraction thereof.
The stamp must be attached to the
outside of the envelope and not on
the card.”
Cards of this kind are generally
used during the seasons when greet
ings are exchanged between friends.
Often at Christmas time or for New
Year’s a plain post card will be sold
by a dealer, and he will then write
“A Merry Christmas" on tho card,
using glue instead of ink. Tinsel or
colored mice will be thrown on the
glue, and will, of course, stick. This
makes a very pretty greeting card,
but the department is now finding the
tinsel rubs off and is injurious to the
health of Its employes.
Although the newspapers are aid
ing Uncle Sam In teaching his pat
rons how to stamp letters, very little
success seems to have been made
in regards to the matter of enclos
ing post cards In thin envelopes
Many persons have a habit of enclos
ing the cards In visible Envelopes,
but stamping the cards and cutting
a place around the stamp so they
can be cancelled.
