Lovely as an Heirloom

heirloom piece. The popular pine-
apple motif is used for the border,
the chrysanthemum center is as
graceful as can be. Perfect entry
for a crocheting contest!

day nights on NBC, was the first
step. Next came the hilarious
United Artists picture, “Cham-
pagne for Caesar,” his first film
in three years. Colman is wonder-
ful as a double-or-nothing quiz con-
testant who runs his take up to a
$40,000,000 jackpot. Even the tal-
ented parrot who plays “Caesar”
can’t steal scenes from him—quite
a feat!

Lowell Thomas, CBS newscaster,
had quite a week recently. The
doctor let him discard the crutches
he’d been using for seven months,
ever since he was thrown from a
horse while trekking through Tibet.
And his son was married, with
Thomas as the best man. The
beautiful wedding took place in a
charming church in Greenwich,

Mona Freeman has been wor-
ried; she’s so little and looks so
young that she feared she’d never
get roles where she could look her
age—25. “I could just see my
daughter growing up,” said she,
“And going to the movies with a
boy friend, pointing to a bobby-
soxer on the screen and saying
“That’s my mother’ ”. But now
Mona’s happy; she looks her age

Praise Crazy Crystals
Mrs. C. C. Cowan, 1507 Trice Ave.,
Waco, whose bright, cheery personal-
ity is a source of joy to the whole
neighborhood, says her family and
her mother’s family have, as long as
M"rs. Cowan says: “1 have used
Cx^zy Water for at least thirty
yeahrs and my mother and father be-
fore me used Crazy Water. I am 72
years old and now my daughter has
started using Crazy Water Crystals
and I take them, not only as a laxa-
tive, but also to mix with artesian
water, and have a wonderful drink.”
It doesn’t matter how old you are
or where you live—Crazy Water
Crystals are good for you because
they are nature’s own product.
Faulty, sluggish elimination is so
often the cause of many ailments
folks suffer from—upset stomach,
gas pains, headaches, rundown,
played-out feeling, nervousness and
body aches and pains can often be
attributed to faulty elimination.
Don’t endure these hardships any
longer; get effective, pleasant relief
today from nature’s own Crazy
Water Crystals.
The one and only genuine CRAZY
WATER CRYSTALS have been pro-
duced and distributed to your drug-
gist for over 70 years by the CRAZY7
