out the awareness of the Guide:
Whe night is dark and we are far
from home;” the sign posts are all 1
down and we have passed so many
dorks, crossroads, and paths that w j

In the dark two senses usually as
sure us of our company. One is hear

His disciples over the stormy sea
“ Fear not, it is I,” and they recog
nized His voice. Another sense of
assui-ance is feeling. A blind person,
is governed much by hearing and
feeling. In the darkness of the pres

TEN MOST BEAUTIFUL WORDS
Suppose you try making a list of
ten words in the English language
that you think are the most beauti
ful. Wilfred J. Funk, poet and dic
tionary publisher, recently did this
—words “beautiful in meaning and
in the musical arrangement of their
letters.”
He thoroughly sifted thousands of
words before he reached a conclu-
“Beauty of sound is not
enough,” declared Mr. Funk; “’Mush
is a word pleasant to the ear, but its
suggestion is ugly. Beauty of mean
ing is not sufficient. ‘Mother’ is one
of our most loved words, but it lacks
euphony.”
So, Mr. Funk compiled these ten
words as the most beautiful in the
English language:
Dawn, hush, lullaby, murmuring,
tranquil, mist, luminous, chimes,
i**golden, melody.—Highway of Hap

Why
Liquid Laxatives
are Back in Favor
The public is fast returning to the use
of liquid laxatives. People have
learned that the properly prepared
liquid laxative will bring a perfect
movement without any discomfort
at the time, or after.
The dose of a liquid laxative can
be varied to suit the needs of the
individual. The action can thus be
regulated. A child is easily given the
right dose. And mild liquid laxatives
do not irritate the kidneys.
Doctors are generally agreed that
senna is the best laxative for every
body. Senna is a natural laxative. It
does not drain the system like the
cathartics that leave you so thirsty.
Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is a
liquid laxative which relies on senna
for its iaxative action. It has the
average person’s bowels as regular as
clockwork in a few weeks’time.
