To Mothers:
“Her children rise up and call her
blessed.” Prov. 31.28.
When we would set before mankind
the perfection of care, give the best
expression of tenderness, present the
sweetest illustration of gentleness, and
give the truest example of forgive
ness—we spea kof motherhood. Bet
ter than to shine socially and have the
world acclaim you great is just to
be “mother." But if you are incon
sistent, impatient, neglectful, irritible,
critical and indifferent, then your pow
er is gone.
If you would hold your children, you
have only to remember:
YOUR NAME—
It has never yet lost its sweet
ness when rightly spoken.
YOUR INFLUENCE—
It holds when every other up
lifting thing is forgotten.
YOUR VOICE—
It is more thrilling than that
of the most noted singers in the
world.
YOUR HANDS—
They are never so calloused by
toil or wrinkled by age as to
lose their tender touch.
YOUR PRECENCE—
It hushes the sob, dries the tear,
drives back the fever; some
times defeats death.
AND REMEMBERING—
Lire up to those ideals and there is
no child so young and none so old
that the memory of such a mother
holds when the night is darkest, the
day is longest and the influence to-
war devil most terrific. Remember
that you cannot be all that a mother
should be without you have Him in
your life, who has blessed mothers
Bince He first came into the world,—
He is Jesus, the Son of God.

PALE CHILDREN
NEED GUDE’S
PEPTO-MANGAN
Blalock-Harrell-Smith Co
Under New Management
Unnatural for Children to be
Pale and Thin—Paleness is
Sign of Thin, Watery
Blood.
PEPTO - MANGAN
RED BLOD
MAKES
Prepared in Liquid and Tablet
Form—Both Possess Iden
tical Medicinal Qualities
It is necessary for boys and girls to
laugh, romp, play and enjoy them
selves, for it is at that stage of life
that the foundation is laid for future
health.
Prompt attention should be given to
the child who seldom laughs, whose
physical condition prevents playing
like the other children, whose appe
tite is poor, and who tires easily.
If the lassitude is due to poor blood,
which is often the case, a simple, safe,
and pleasant remedy is within easy
each. Gude’s Pepto-Mangan is just
the tonic for pale, thin children.
Gude’s Pepto-Mangan Contains the
very ingredients that increase and en
rich the blood, enabling it to supply
the entire body with the sorely needed
igor, strength and vitality that make
happy, romping children.
For the convenience of the public
Pepto-Mangan is prepared in tablet as
well as in liquid form. Both forms pos
sess exactly the same medicinal prop
erties.
When you ask the druggist for Pep
to-Mangan, look for the name "Gude’s”
on the package. If it is not there it
is not Pepto-Mangan.
Cold Kills Fish.
It has been proved that sudden cold
sometimes causes the death of thou
sands of fish in the shallow » , nt3rs of
the tropics and subtropics. Many sph-
cles are so chilled ns to become help
less, and are either killed directly by
drowning or are washed asho<*e In a
comatose state. The phenomenon is
known locally as “freezing," although
the temperature of the water may be
several degrees above the freezing
point.
ATTENTION, FARMERS AND
On the Go!
Few married women are really
happy. Even if she marries a man
after ber own heart she Is in mortal
dread that he may, some day, be after
another woman’s heart.—Cartoons
Magazine.
Morality the Object
The end of all political struggle Is
to establish morality as the basis of
all legislation. ’TIs not free institu
tions, ’tis not a democracy that is the
end—no, but only the means. Morality
Is the object of government. We want
a state of things in which crime will
not pay; n state of things which al
lows every man the largest liberty
compatible with the liberty of every
other man.—Emerson.
