MOTHER! LOOK AT
TONGUE
If cross, feverish, constipated,
give "California Syrup
of Figs."
A laxative today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Children simply will not
take the time from play to empty their
bowels, which become clogged up with
waste, liver gets slugglBh; stomach
■our.
Look at the tongue, mother! If coat-
ad, or your child is listless, cross, fev-
erish, breath bad, restless, doesn't eat
heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other children's ailment, give a
teaspoonful of "California Syrup of
Figs," then don't worry, because It Is
perfectly harmless, and in a few hours
all this constipation poison, sour bile
and fermenting wasto will gently
move out of the bowels, and you have
a woll, playful child again. A thor-
ough "Inside cleansing" Is ofttlmes all
that Is necessary. It should be the
first treatment given in any sickness.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask at the store for a BO-cent bottle of
"California Syrup of Figs," which has
full directions for babies, children of
all ages and for grown-ups plainly
printed on the bottle. Adv.
Benefited by Prohibition.
Dealers in soda fountain supplies,

wide increase of prohibition is appre-
ciably reflected in added business for

years.

COVETED BY ALL

head of hair. If yours is streaked with
gray, or la harsh and stiff, you can re-
store it to Its former beauty and lus-
ter by using "La Creole" Hair Dress-

RECIPE FOR GRAY HAIR.

■mall U.* of Barlto OlMpoill. aixl M ox. of

morous boarder.
TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS
WHEN BLADDER BOTHERS
Harmless to Flush Kidneys and Neu-
tralize irritating Acids—Splendid
for the System.
Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where it often remains to Irritate and
inflame, causing a burning, acalding
sensation, or setting up an Irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. Tho sufforer is in
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again, there Is
difficulty in avoiding it
Bladder weakness, most folks call
It, because they can't control urina-
tion. While it Is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painiul, this is
really one cf the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
tralize tho acids In tho urine so it no
longer is a source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon Juice, combined with lithta,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efferves-
cent llthla-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.—Adv.
8ure Thing.
"Money doesn't bring happiness."
"Maybe not. But it will help yom
greatly In going after it."

"ANURIC!
NEWEST in CHEMISTRY
This is a recent discovery cf Doctor
Pierce, head of the Invalids' Hotel,
Buffalo, N. Y. Experiments for sev-
eral years proved that there is no
other eliminator of uric acid compa-
rable. For those easily recognized
iBymptoms of inflammation—as back-
! ache, scalding urine and frequent url-
I nation, as well as sediment in the
urine, or if uric acid in the blood has
caused rheumatism, "Anuric" acts
quickly. In rheumatism of the Joints,
in gravel and gout, invariably the
pains and stiffness which so frequently
and persistently accompany the dis-
ease rapidly disappear.

LIQUOR MEN'8 ARGUMENT.
Replying to the paid orators of the
saloon who declare that if it was not
intended that men should drink al-
coholic liquor God would not have
created the rye, the corn, etc., from
which it is manufactured, the Ameri-
can Issue says: "They might declare
that if God had not intended men to
drink booze, he would not have cre-
ated the wood that builds the saloon,
the brass in the fixtures, the quartz
melted into the goblet or the iron
which, molten, makes the stove. They
might carry the argument farther and
say that if God had not intended men
to drink alcoho! that ho would not
have created the mouth with which
to imbibe. Until It can be shown that
God created a man's tongue so that
he could lie and hands that he might
steal, there is not very much in the
argument that the Creator made corn
and rye that men might make alco-
hol therefrom for the purpose of pois-
oning themselves and their fellowmen
for profit."
ASKING TOO MUCH.
"I belonged to the Good Fellows'
club until a little while ago, and I
left It—not for any moral reason, but
for a cold-blooded reason. I thought
Mr. Barleycorn was asking Just a lit-
tle too much for liquor. In addition
to the price that he and I agreed
upon, he asked for my country—my
government, local, state and rational.
He demanded a mountain range of
blasted homes; 50,000 boys and girls
as driftwood in his River of Death;
the eyesight of babies and the peace
of old ag\
"Barefoot soldiers gave us inde
pendence. but barefoot children do nol
have tc give us revenue! In this fight
you do not have to die. All you have
to do is to make a modest investment
in human progress and in the King
dom of God."—Ex-Congressman Lan
dis of Indiana.
RESPECT FOR MINISTER.
A saloonkeeper offered a young min-
ister $40 to help pay a church debt.
The money was needed very badly,
but the minister replied: "Before I
accept that contribution I must let you
know my attitude toward ycur busi-
ness. As long as I am a minister
in this town' I shall fight your busi?
ness as hard as 1 know how. 1 shall
tell the ycung men and boys what you
will do tr.them, and If I get a chance
when election time comes I shall vote
to put you out of business." The sa
loonkeeper thrust the money toward
the minister and said: "Take it; I
wouldn't have any respect for you If
you didn't do those very things."
"Pape's Diapepsin" settles sour,
gassy stomachs in five
minutes—Time it I
You don't want a slow remedy when
your stomach is bad—or an uncertain
one—or a harmful one—your stomach
is too valuable; you mustn't injure it.
Pape's Diapepsin is noted for its
speed in giving relief; its harmless-
ness; its certain unfailing action in
regulating sick, cour, gassy stomachs.
Its millions of cures in indigestion,
dyspepsia, gastritis and other stomach
trouble has made it famous the world
over.
Keep this perfect stomach doctor in
your home—keep it handy—get a large
fifty-cent case from any dealer and
then if anyone should eat something
which doesn't agree with them; If
what they eat lays like lead, ferments
and sours and forms gas; causes head-
ache, dizziness and nausea; eructa-
tions of acid and undigested food-
remember as soon as Pape's Diapepsin
comes in contact with the stomach all
such dlttress vanishes. Its prompt-
ness, certainty and ease in overcoming
the worst stomach disorders is a reve-
lation to those who try It—Adv.
TEMPTING FUTURE SOLDIERS.
In Britain 4.000,000 men have ap
plied for service. One million have
been rejected. If peace standards were
being applied 3,000,0C0 would have
been rejected. Commenting upon this,
Dr. C. W. Saleeby, the eugerlst, says:
"We tempted the future scldlers with
drink at sixteen. This million of re-
jected men were once your.ger." He
also says: "No instructed German
would deny the fact that his own coun
try's figures are worse."
Albatross Traveled Fast.
It Is known that In at least one case
an albatross flew 3,400 miles in eight
days. A bird captured near the coatt
of Chile on December 20, 1847, had
about its neck a vial with a note dated
near the coast of New Zealand on the
12th of the same month.
