!n a recent experiment the Chi-
cago Poiice Crime Detection lab-
oratory had seven college profes-
sors diflcrentiate between four
samples of their signatures, one
being genuine, one an expert for-
gery, one a tracing and one writ-
ten with no attempt at imitation.
On!y one man identified ids own
signature as genuine and recog-
nized the other three specimens
as nongenuine.
A new organization in New Yorh
supplies capable young women
between the ages of 20 and 30
years to act as "proxy parents,"
taking children to theaters,
schoois, parties, dentists' ofHcet

meet trains and chaperon girls
who come to the city for a visit.
More than 60 per cent of the
money now paid out annually by
the life insurance companies of
the United States and Canada goes
to living policyholders, not to their
beneficiaries.—Collier's.

In memory of the dogs, cats and
other pets that are buried or cre-
mated on its grounds each week, s

er, the notices often include such
expressions as "Bubbles—I could
not have loved you more."—Col-

Syrup Pepsin heips you gain that won-
derful stomach-relief, white the Laxative

in your stomach, to cause betching, gastric
acidity and nausea. This is how pepsin-
izing your stomach hetps retieve it of such
distress. At the same time this medicine
wakes up tazy nerves and muactes in your
bowets to retieve your constipation. So see
how much better you feet by taking the
laxative that also puts Pepsin to work on
that stomach discomfort, too. Even fin-
icky children love to taste this pleasant
famity laxative. Buy Dr. Caldwett'a Lax-
ative—Senna with Syrup Pepsin at your
druggist today!

I met in the street today, *
very poor young man who was in
love. His hat was old, his coat
was threadbare—there were holes
at his elbows; the water passed
through his shoes and the stars
through his soul —From "Les Mis-
erables," by Victor Hugo.
