BABY
FRETFUL,
RESTLESS?
Look to this cause
When your baby fusees, tosses and
neems unable to sleep restfully, look
for one common cause, doctors say.
Constipation. To get rid quickly of
the accumulated wastes which cause
restlessness and discomfort, give a
cleansing dose of Castoria. Castoria,
you know, Is made specially for
children's delicate needs. It Is a pure
vegetable preparation; contains no
harsh, drugs, no narcotics. It Is so
mild and gentle you can give it to a
young infant to relieve colic. Yet it is
as effective for older children. Cas-
toria's regulative help will bring re-
lated comfort and restful sleep to
your baby. Keep a bottle on, hand.
Genuine Castoria always has the
name:

FULL MEASURE
Ono of the results of the present
economic situation is that a "full
measure" of value is necessary in
order to gain the confidence anri
patronage of the public. That's one
reason why St.Joseph's Genuine
Pure Aspirin has become the larg-
est selling aspirin in the world for
10c. People everywhere realize
that it is neither economical nor
necessary to spend more than 10c
for 12 tablets of genuine pure as-
pirin. In addition, they know that
"StJoseph's" is as fine and as pure
as money can buy. They know fur-
ther that St.Joseph's moisture-proof
cellophane wrapping preserves the
purity and full strength of each

lie—Do you pay our milkman by
check ?
She—-No, I'd rather owe him than
worry about the bank balance.—Chi-
cago News.
(Prepared by National Geographic Sooloty.
Washington, D. C.)—WNU Service,
GEOItGE WASHINGTON, soldier
statesman, has eclipsed George
Washington, the traveler—yet
as a traveler, and as a geogra-
pher who gained his information at
Irst hand, the Father of Ills Country
earned the right' to another "first."
Many places Washington visited have
been unaware of the fact; other places
svhere he is reputed to have "stopped"
or "spent the night" are far from the
verified records of his travels. This
Information developed when the map
makers of the National Geographic so-
ciety started on the extensive research
task—research consuming more than
a year—to record all of Washington's
journeys on a single map.
Thorough checks was made of the
diaries of .Washington, of the contem-
porary accounts of his travels, and in
many cases personal visits had to be
made to places, and musty courthouse
fdes scanned, because of places that
have changed names, or have their
names duplicated.
The compilation of this Information
shows that George Washington trav-
eled over a larger area than any other
official of his time. Ilis travels ex-
tended from the heart of Georgia to
Klttery, Maine. Westward, be went to
the vicinity of Lake Erie, in Pennsyl-
vania; to tlie neighborliod of Point
Pleasant, In West Virginia, and to
Gallipolis, Ohio.
Of t liroe sea voyages Washington
made, one was to foreign soil, Barba-
dos. P.ut the most amazing aspect of
his travels, perhaps, are his journeys
on horseback—journeys ranging from
Virginia to Fort Le Boeuf, and from
Mount Vernon to Boston. However, so
far as records show, lie did not visit
the birthplace of his mother, Epping
Forest.
Long Horseback Trips.
Washington's horseback trips were
often arduous. lie was known to
average 35 miles a day for periods of
more than a week. Once he rode 5G0
miles in 10 days. That trip was from
Cumberland, Md.t to Williamsburg, Va„
and two days of tlie 10 were "time
out," waiting for an armed escort,
lie carried the pay for Braddock's
army in his saddlebags.
Morses often broke under the strain,
when public duty called Washington
to move with dispatch. For instance,
when riding to join General Braddock,
upon reaching the vicinity of what is
now Charles Town, W. Va., he re-
ported that he killed one horse out-
right and had rendered the three
others he had brought along unfit for
service.
When there was no urgency of pub-
lic business his horses fared better.
After his trip to ills western lands in
1784, during which he had twice crossed
the Appalachians and had been so far
from civilization that he could get no
corn for his horse (and nothing or
only boiled corn for himself), he sets
down with satisfaction that he had
traveled 080 miles between the first
day of September and the fourth day
of October, on the same horses.
Washington's geographic Instincts
began to develop on this early trip.
The trough of the south branch of the
Potomac, where many years later Pres-
ident drover Cleveland fished for bass,
he described as "(a) couple of Ledges
of Mountahi Impassable running side
and side together for above seven or
eight Miles and ye I'iver down be-
tween lliem." He adds: "You must
Itlde Itound ye back of ye Mountain
for to get below them."
Good Pay, Small Exnertse.
With boyish zest Washington ate his
evening meal on Friday, April 8.
"We camped this Night in ye Woods
near a Wild Meadow where was a
Stack of Hay after we had Pitched
our Tent and made a very Large Fire
we pull'd nut our Knapsack In order
to ttecrult ourselves every (one) was
his own Cook our Spits was Forked
Sticks our Plates was a Large Chip
as for Dishes we had none."
A letter written to a friend while on
one of the several other surveying
trips he made to the waters of the
Shenandoah, the Caeapon, and the
South Branch in 1749, 1750, 1751,
and 1752 indicates It was the good pay
that reconciled young Washington to
the hardships of a surveyor's life.
Therein he says that he had not slept
above three or four nights in a bed,
but nfter walking all day he lay down
"before the fire upon a Little Hay
Straw Fodder or balrskln which ever
is to be had with Man Wife and Chil-
dren like a parcel of Dogs or Catts
& happy lie that gets the Berth near-
est the tire there's nothing would make
it pass of tolerably but a good Ite-
ward a Dubbleloon ($7.10%) is my
constant gain every Day that the
Weather Will permit my going out and
some time Six Pistoles ($21.50)."
Traveling expenses were low In
those days. Virginia had a law that
rates for accommodations in each
county should be fixed by the court
thereof, and that any keeper of an
ordinary not observing these rates
should be heavily fined, half the fine
going to the Informer. The Augusta
county court order book shows that a
hot dinner cost !) pence; a cold meal,
0 pence; lodging, with clean sheets,3V&
pence*; twenty-four-hour stabling and
fodder for a horse, 0 pence; and corn
or oats, per gallon, 0 pence. When it
is remembered that the Virginia shill-
ing was worth 10% cents of our
money, we see that a hot dinner cost
12% cents and other service in pro-
portion.
From Staunton, Washington rode to
Fredericksburg by way of Charlottes-
ville, making the 114-mile journey in
three days and still being fit enough
to play billiards the evening he ar-
rived.
On Wednesday, February 4, 1750,
Washington set out for Boston to lay
a case of military precedence before
Gen. William Shirley, commander In
chief of the British forces In America.
He reached Philadelphia the following
Sunday, and took five or six days to
look around the city.
He apparently made the !X) Inter-
vening miles to New York in two days.
And what must the New York of that
day have meant to the young Virginian,
who had spent the last three years
mostly in the primeval forests or fight-
ing French and Indians on the savage
frontiers!
A Visit to New York.
There was the "Microcosm" to visit
described at the time as a world In
miniature, which took 22 years to
build. Washington's enthusiasm fot |
it is written in his accounts, for on |
two seperate occasions he enters items
"for treatg. Ladies to ye Mi(cro-
cos)m." There was also a rout at
Mrs. Baron's, and tips to the servants
in the household of Beverley Robin-
son, son of the speaker of the Virginia
house of burgesses.
Two Hays before lie was twenty-foui
years old he set out on the last leg of
his journey to Boston, and the "Penn-
sylvania Gazette" carried the news
that "Colonel Washington, of Virginia
hut last from Philadelphia, left this
city (New York) for Boston."
On liis way to Boston he stopped I
with a Mr. Malbone, in Rhode Island, j
He entel-ed a tip for the latter's ser
vants of £4 and another Itmn of £5 fot
a broken bowl.
In Boston he stopped at Cromwell's
Head tavern. He saw General Shir-
ley, who decided the question of com
mnnd at Fort Cumberland In his favor,
visited a man of war In the harbor,
lost some money at cards at the gov-
ernor's house, and then set off foi
Virginia. But at the governor's he had
met such people as John Adams, and
made a deep Impression by his re-
cital of conditions In western Virginia.
Maryland and Pennsylvania. Uncon-
sciously be again was playing Into the
hands of destiny, for John Adams was
one of those who H> years later Joined
with Thomas Johnson of Maryland In
making him commander In chief ol
t he American forces.

Lesson for March 27
JESUS RISES FROM THE DEAD
LESSON TEXT—John 20:1-29.
GOLDHN TEXT—But now Is Christ
risen from the dead, and become the
first fruits of them that slept.
PRIMARY TOPIC —Jesus Living
Again.
JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus the Conqueror.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP-
IC—Loving and Serving the Risen Lord.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP-
IC—The Fact and Meaning of the Res-
urrection.
I. The Empty Tomb (vv. 1-10).
John does not enter into a descrip-
tion of the resurrection of Christ or
give any proof other than that the
tomb was empty, and that Jesus had
repeatedly manifested himself after
the tomb was found empty. To see the
body of Christ with a apear-thrust and
nail prints nnd the empty tomb was
all that faith needed.
1. The testimony of Mary Magda-
lene (vv. 1, 2). Tills woman, out of
whom Jesus had cast seven demons'
(Mark 10:9; Luke 8:2), announced the
fact of the empty tomb to Peter and
John. Prompted by great love to him
for Ills kindness to her, she went early
to the tomb even "when it was yet
dark."
2. Personal Investigation by Peter
and John (vv. 3-10). The news of the
empty tomb which Mary brought with
breathless haste so moved John and
Peter that they both ran to Investigate.
When John came to the empty tomb,
he gazed Into It, but when Peter came
he entered It. This Investigation con-
vinced them of the reality of the resur-
rection. The removal of the stone
from the sepulchre, the arrangement of
the grave clothes, convinced them that
the enemy could not have done this.
II. The Manifestations of the Riaen
Lord (vv. 11-29).
1. To Mary Magdalene (vv. 11-18).
a. Mary weeping at the empty tomi>
(v. 11). Peter and John went home,
but Mary could not. She stood weep-
ing. Home was nothing to her while
her Lord was missing. Earnest love
need not to weep long for Jesus Is
found of those who love him. She
should have beeu rejoicing that the
grave was empty, for the empty tomb
was eloquent proof of his messiahship
and deity.
b. Mary questioned by the angels
(vv. 12, 18). Through her tears, she
saw angels at the tomb, who inquired
as to the cause of her sorrow.
c. Jesus revealed himself to Mary
(vv. 14-10). She first saw the angels
nnd then her eyes lighted upon the
Lord. She did not recognize him In
bis resurrection body, but his voice
was familiar to her. As soon as he
called her by name, she recognized him
and fell at his feet weeping.
d. Jesus forbade her to touch him
(v. 17), This showed that she was
coining Into a new relationship to him.
e. Mary's testimony (v. 18). She
told the disciples that she had seen
the Lord.
2. To the disciples (vv. 19-29). lie
appeared to several of his disciples at
different times during the day. This
Iti the first appearance to the disciples
as a body. The rumors of his sev-
eral appearances on that day caused
the disciples to assemble to talk over
the matter. For fear of the Jews, they
met in a private room and barred the
door. While they were discussing the
strange happenings of the day, tho
Lord mysteriously appeared to them.
a. When Thomas was absent (vv.
19-23).
(1) His message of peace (v. 19).
This revealed his attitude toward
them. He did not come with censure
for their failure and desertion.
(2) He showed his hands and his
side (v. 20). Having calmed their
fears, he gave them unmistakable evi-
dence of his resurrection.
(3) He commissioned them (v. 21).
"As my Father hath sent me even so
send I you." This commission was not
simply to a class, as the eleven, but
to all Christians (Luke 24-33).
(4) He bestowed the Holy Spirit up-
on them (v. 22). This was their equip-
ment. Only as empowered by the Holy
Ghost can one go forward as a suc-
cessful witness for Christ.
(5) The disciples' authority (v. 23).
This authority was not by virtue of
office, but by virtue of having the Holy
Ghost. Tills spiritual gift gave spiritu-
al discernment to know who had or
who had not repented and consequent-
ly to pronounce pardon or withhold It.
b. When Thomas was present (vv.
24-29).
(1) The victory of sight and touch
(vv. 24-28). The Lord graciously sup-
plied the evidence which Thomas need-
ed. The Lord does not rebuke those
who sincerely seek light.
(2) Greater blessing for those who
believe, not having seen (v. 29).
