MILK IN DISGUISE
‘‘Doctor,’* began worried moth
er, ‘"Hetty is complaining again a
bout drinking milk. Does she really
need so much?" -*■
"Yea, she does," the doctor re
plied, “and that isn’t just my opin
ion. We know it i* true from count- ]
less scientific experiments. The ,
findings have been checkeif and test
cd over and over again. Hetty is |
growing. She needs the minerals of J
milk for her bones. She needs the
vitamins to keep her healthy and i
growing. And we know that moat 1
children need the full quart to get
their share."
“I know you’re right," the moth- I
er said, “I’ll keep atier her."
“No, don’t keep after her. That
may o her a real dislike for milk.
Try some disguise instead. Let’s
see now. There’s ice cream and
junket; custards and puddings; milk
on berries; crackers and milk, cere
als; egg-nogg. I’m sure you know
of many other ways.
“How about cheese? Have you
tried that? And perhaps Betty won’t
notice the change if you offer her
a glass of cool milk in the middle of
the morning and the afternoon in
stead of at meals."
“I see what you mean, doctor
Thanks, I’ll try it”
FRIENDSHIP
He is a friend whose eyes can look
into
The secret darkened corners of
your soul,
And knowing the things you feel, the
things you do,
Can love you still and keep his
friendship whole.
He is a friend whose thoughts are
fixed upon
Your cares and joys as though
they were his own—
Who never counts his obligations
done,
Though grief and hardship wear
him to the hone.
Friendship is not for cautious, little
men
Who crave the rose but curse its
thorny stem,
Who clasp your hand, but drop you
quickly when *
Your friendship can no longer pro
fit 'them;
Friendship is for the strong, the
true, the brave,
Whose hearts go singing with you
to the grave.

CARELESS MAILING
(From Butler Herald)
People in the United States are
excedingly careless in mailing, and
any postoffice clerk will vouch- for
the statement that every day they
are put to a great deal of trouble
trying to help some piece of mail to
reach its destination.
The figures that the postoffice de
partment has compiled are impres
sive. Twenty-one million letters
could not be delivered one year due
to insufficient address at all or some
other deficiency. One hundred thou-
sand letters were mailed in blank
envelopes the same year. Other
shortcomings, of the public in this
respect are:
That 803,000 parcels never reach
ed the persons for whom the parcels
were intended; that $55,000 in cash
is removed annually from misdirect
ed letters; that $12,000 in checks,
drafts and money orders never reach
intended recipients; that Uncle Sam
collects $92,000 a year in postage
for the return of mail sent to the
dead letter office; that it costs Uncle
Sam $1,740,000 each year to look up
addresses; that 200,000,000 letters
annually receive special attention be
cause mailers are careless in the
matter of addressing.
Plants to be grown indoors should
be started now. Cuttings from gen
aniums will root easily if planted in
a moist sandy soil and kept in the
shade for a few days.

WISHBONE AND BACKBONE
Once a little Wishbone met a Back
bone, big and strong.
Said the Wishbone to the Backbone,
“Won’t you carry me along?
I get so tired wishing; it’s harder
every day,
While things you ask for always
seem to come your way.
I think and think of all the things I
want, and never get,
But nothing ever slips by you . . .
you never niiss a bet.
Won’t you tell me how you do it, for
your method works so well;
Is it higher mathematics, or do you
cast a spell?”
Said the Backbone to the Wishbone,
“Friend, you have file wrong,
For my method’s very simple . . .
just determination strong,
Mixed with a lot of common grit, re
fusing to get blue.
No matter how much things go
wrong, and all my plans astray,
I start right in and build them up
in a better, stronger way.
You see, it’s very simple, if you only
make it work,
But I never knew a Wishbone yet,
who wasn’t just a shirk!”
Dorothea Morse.
SALES RECORD IS SET BY

mately 3,000 employes participated

SALUTES
In the United States the character
istic saluation is “Hello.”
The Arabs say on meeting, “A fine
morning to you.”
The Turks say, with gravity, “God
grant you his blessing.”
The Persian greeting is familiar to
all by reason of its quaintness: “May
your shadow never grow less!”
The Egyptian is a practical man.
He has to earn his taxes by toil un
der a burning sun. Accordginly he
asks: “How do you perspire?”
The Chinese loves his dinner.
Hence he asks, “How are you di
gesting?”
The Greeks, who are keen men of
business, ask one another, “How are
you getting on?”
The national salution of Naples
was formerly, “Grow in grace.” At
present, in most parts of Italy, a
phrase equivalent to "How are you?”
is used.
The Spaniards say. “How are you
passing it?”
The French, “How do you carry
yourself?”
The Germans, “How goes it?”
The Dutch, “How do you travel?"
The Swedes, “How can you?” this
meaning, “Are you in good vigor?”
The Russians, “Be well!”
The English speaking nations, in
addition to the telephonic “Hello,”
say “How are you?” and “How do"
you do?”
The bow as a mark of respect is a
custom used by nearly all nations.

NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING
School of Business Administration all over the coun
try continually making surveys as to the comparative
value of the different types of advertising. We have seen
between thirty and forty of these comparative schedules
and, in every instance, advertising in the newspapers has
ied the field. The psychology of advertising has been
studied along with the different types of appeal to the
people generally. Letters have been sent out to large con
cerns asking them from what form of advertising the
greatest returns are shown. One of the surveys was made
in Milwaukee recently by Dean Robert A. Johnson, of
the college of Business of Administration of Marquette
University, which has established beyond a doubt, the
claims that have been made by the advocates of newspa
per advertising.
Advertising in the newspapers received more votes
than all other forms of advertising combined. Magazine
advertising ranked second with a little over half the favor
of newspaper advertising. Mail advertising (letters, cir
culars, etc.) came third, but received only one tenth the
favor of the newspapers. Billboards, radios, hand bills,
programs, car cards, etc., all received some votes, but
ranged from one fifteenth to one twenty-fifth the number
of votes as that in 'he newspapers. Dean Johnson’s con
clusion was that, “Newspaper advertising is not only the
most valuable but is the most educational in fixing in the
minds of the public the importance of being informed as
to the values of the commodities advertised.”
There is not even a question in mind of any individual
as to whether advertising pays, for anyone knows that it
does; the only question that concerns the average busi
ness man is to decide upon the best method of advertis
ing.—Exchange.
Constipation
Relieved Quickly, Easily
Mrs. B. G. Brown, Atlanta, Ga.. writes:
“I take Dr. Hitchcock's AIF Vegetable
Laxative Powder for dizziness, bilious
ness and sick headaches caused by con
stipation. I have never found anything
better. When I feel weak, rundown and
sluggish I take 1/3 dose after meals, or
a small dose at bedtime. It thoroughly
cleanses the bowels.” Dr. Hitchcock’s
Laxative Powder Is mild—but effective
—it acts gently, yet thoroughly, and
removes that clogged condition of the
bowels. At all drug stores 2f>c.
