BVOHV HSBICAI OO., Chemists, Ooshen, Ind.,, XJ.S.A, There is Safety Under This Roof Have you ever had a fine job of decorating spoiled by a leaking roof? If you have, you certainly are in.a position to appreciate the value of a roof that is positively water-proof. Some of the troubles common to wooden shingles to-day are that they are apt to split, warp or blow off as well leak, soon after they are put on. Years ago they were good, but the quality has since gradually depreciated as the available supply of suitable timber became exhausted. Brantford Slates have none of the faults of wooden shingles. They cannot rust. They do not allow rain-to be driven under them as do metal roofs. They do not require rigid supporting as do the common tile or slate roofs. On the other hand Brantford Slates afford the utmost protection with little weight. They are made on a long-fibred felt "base" which is thoroughly saturated under pressure with asphaltum or mineral pitch. Crushed quarried slate particles, are then deeply embedded embedded in the surface of this "base", making it water-tight and fireproof. Brantford Roofing Brantford Slates are made in the natural slate colors of green, red, black and grey. The colors never fade and the slates do not require painting nor repairing. These slates are pliable and fit readily around gables and into the angles of any roof. This means a continuous roof without seams or joints. Sparks die on Brantford Slates. When you have these slates "on" you are done with the job. Remember they don't require painting or staining and may be selected to harmonize with almost almost any exterior color design, and the price is not beyond your reach. We would be pleased to send you samples and our Roofing Booklet. Brantford Roofing Company, Limited Brantford, Canada 86 For Sale by F. O. Mason Food Poisoning. Food poisoning may occur in several different ways. The poison of putrefaction putrefaction is a chemical substance that is formed by the decomposition of albuminous matter in the food. Certain Certain bacteria may contaminate the food by growing in it, just as they would in the culture material of a laboratory. In that case they do not reveal their presence by causing any change in the appearand or the odor of the food. Some mineral poison from the vessel in which the food was prepared may occasionally be present, although-that is very rare. Meat may come* from diseased animals and contain contain . disease-producing bacteria or their toxins ; the latter often preserve their virulence even after thorough cookihg. Finally the food may be inherently poisonous, as certain fish are or as some mushrooms are. Putrefying meat does not always poison; if it did, there would be, no lovers of ."high game" left alive. When meats other than game are "high," sensible people refuse to eat them; but sometimes jmscrupulous dealers chop up such meat and mix it with spices so as to disguise the taste and odor of decomposition. A very common form of poisoning is caused by eating canned meat or fish. When canned food decomposes, a gas usually forms and causes the top or bottom of the can to bulge out. In that case, of course, the food should never be eaten. But sometimes the contents of the can are incompletely sterilized when the can is filled ; then bacteria may be present that will produce produce their poison without causing the food to change its appearance.. The symptoms of food poisoning are usually those of severe cholera morbus--vomiting, morbus--vomiting, diarrhoea, pain in the abdomen, restlessness, prostration, headache, and sometimes fever. Mild food poisoning is undoubtedly very common,, and many cases of biliousness, biliousness, indigestion or summer complaint complaint are really of that nature. In all cases of real ptomaine poisoning poisoning the find thing to do is to empty' the stomach. Even though vomiting has already occured, some of the poisonous poisonous material may be left, and only the artificial production of vomiting vomiting will remove it. After that the symptoms must be treated as they appear; the physician's chief concern must be to sustain the heart until the system has eliminated the poison and the attack is over.--Youth's' Companion.
