The ‘'Greatest Mother" concept which was visualized In the famous art
poster used by the American Red Cross In Its second war fund campaign
has bad its symbolism adapted to tbe Red Cross works of the post-war era
and will Illuminate the main poster to be used In the Fourth Roll Call Novem
ber 11-25. This adaptation will bear the title "Still the Greatest Mother In
the World." Everyone is familiar with the original "The Greatest Mother in
the World,” the effectiveness of which has been shown in part by the fact
that It has furnished a synonym for ited Cross that has come to almost a
household term. More tiiun any other symbol, except the red cross itself, the
public has made It tbe trademark of the American Red Cross.

Charleston, Miss—Mrs. R. V. Heins, of this place,
says: “I have never had to use very much medicine,
because if I felt headache, dizziness, or colds, bad taste
in the mouth, which comes from torpid liver, I would
take a dose or more of Black-Draught, and it would
straighten me out and make me feel as good as new.
We have used in our family for years
THEDFORD’S
and it certainiy is the best liver medicine I ever saw.
It has not only saved me money, it has helped keep my
system in shape, and has never weakened me as so
many physics do. I recommend it to my friends and am
glad to do so.” Black-Draught fs the old, reliable liver
medicine which you have dou'otiess heard much about.
When you feel badly all over, stomach not right, bad
taste in your mouth, bilious, or have a headache, try
Thedford’s Black-Draught At all Druggists.
Always Insist on life Genuine!

FOR YOUR BLOOD
To be healthy and strong, you must have a certain amount of iron
in your blood. When your blood lacks iron, nothing can take its place
—and you are bound to suffer for iron until you get it. Pale, weak,
nervous people, who suffer from headaches, indigestion, rheumatic
pains, lack of appetite, and who feel tired, worn-out and depressed,
probably need iron in their blood and should take
The Scientific Iron Tonic
Mr. A. R. Erwin writes from Ocilla, Ga.: “lam a man of 65; have
taken very little medicine of any kind. Two years ago I got a pain in
my back, pains in the muscles of my arm and leg; no appetite, very
weak, languid, depressed, no energy, nervous and irritable ... I
took three bottles of Ziron, and got all right.”
Get a bottle of Ziron Iron Tonic Tablets, today. II the first bottle taken fails to
benefit you. your money will be refunded, lor all good druggist* sell Ziron on a money
back guarantee.

Superstition Concerning Caul.
It used to lie the belief that a child
“born with a caul” would turn out
very fortunate, and that the caul lt
aelf would bring luck to those who putv
chased it. Even lawyers used to buy
them at high prices, as a means of
making them eloquent, but tit :lr chief
virtue always has Inin In the fact
that they were supposed to bo an in
fallible amulet against death by drown
