UP AGAINST TOUGH PROBLEM
Small Jane's Scruples Prevented Her
From Eating the Candy That
Had Been “Lent.”
Little Jane’s mother brought home
a box of candy given to her by an
Episcopal friend shortly before Eas-
ter, and passed arounci some of its
contents to her children, explaining
that Mrs. Cox’s children had given
up eating candy until after Easter, “so
they cannot eat any now, as it is
Lent.”
Little Jane’s brothers promptly ate
their pieces, but she stood looking at
the candy in her hand with a puzzled
air.
“Why don’t you eat it, Jane?” her
mother asked.
“Because,” she explained, “then how
could I give it back if it’s just lent?”
“Made Me Well and Strong”
Complete Removal.
Fat Mother-in-Law—Look, James,
dear, here at last I’ve found some-
thing to remove my flesh. It’s guar-
anteed to take off 30 pounds a month.
That makes it just right for one who
weighs 180 pounds like I do.
Son-in-Law—Yes. Now use it dili-
gently for six months.

Preserve Faith and Hope. *
It is not boasting to magnify one’s
blessings, or to dwell lovingly and
proudly on the principles and Ideals
which are American. It is necessary
Indeed to do this, since there are some
unhappy souls who see nothing good
In America, and who are even yet look-
ing to Russia for inspiration and sal-
vfftsfcm. Nothing can be done with or
for each, hut It may be possible to
prevent others from being led astray
through Ignorance of what America
ruly is. The American people have
been Impervious to the incursions of

and sfwpld. hut rather because they
are aatMled. and have reason to be.
They know their America well enough
to know that there is no country in
the world in which opportunity Is more
freely offered, none which comes so
near being the country of the average
man.
Many Thinps to Learn.
On the nation’a birthday, therefore,
the American people should pledge
themselves to greater devotion to
American Ideals, to more loyal and uh-
selflsh service, and to stricter conform-
ity to those great principles which He
at the basis of the nation’s life. There
Is great need for education, since much
of the failure to appreciate this coun

Its history, Its Institution!-' and of ail
that America has throughout its life
stood for. And this ignorance is often
the densest in the minds of those who
think of themselves as reformers, and
who indeed are allowed to pose as
such. Men need to be very sure that

Mothers take an all-suffering pride
in their offspring—want to see their
children second to no others in the
world. A young matron was massag-

friend inquired the reason for that
seeming extraordinary care.

when Alice is older I want hers to be

On rising and retiring gently smear

AND THAT’S HOW IT’S DONE!
Calomel is mercury; quicksilver. It
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never be
put into your system.
If you feel bilious, headachy, consti-
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get a bottle of Dod-
son’s Liver Tone for a few cents which
is a harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful
and if it doesn’t start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without making
you sick, you just go back and get your
money.
Don’t take calomel! It makes you
sick the next day; It loses you a day’s
work. Dodson’s Liver Tone straightens
you right up and you feel great. No
salts necessary. Give it to the children
because it is perfectly harmless and
can not salivate.—Advertisement.

despair.
“I have sharpened another blue pen-

responded promptly.
“You are wonderful; you think of
everything!” the great official declared,
seizing the new pencil eagerly. “What
would I do without you? But your
services to your country shall not go
unrewarded.” he added, his face light-
ing up with a happy thought, ~nd strik-

emotions and eyelashes, the dream of
