FAMILY MEDICINE
Some Kind of Stomach
Trouble With Cramps and
Terrible Pains Made This
Oklahoma Man’s Life
Miserable Until Black-
Draught Relieved
, Him
chickasha, Okla, Mrs. J. W.
Walker recently said thia: “We use
Black Draught as a I illy medicine
and think it is the only liver medi
cine made. My husband makes it up
and uses it as a tonic as well as a
laxative. I use it for headache, sour
stomach, a full heavy feeling after
meals, which I suppose is indiges
tion, and it certainly does me a lot
of good.
My husband had some kind of
stomach trouble—we don’t know
just what. It would strike him just
; any time in the day and cramp or
pain him just terribly bad. Someone
* told him how to make a tea of the
Blaok-Draught, which he did. It did
him ao much good it removed the
cause and oured him. Since then
we have praised the Black-Draught
to our friends, and gladly do so.”
Seventy years of successful use
has made Thedford’s Black-Draught
a standard household remedy. Ev
t ery member of the family at times
needs the help that Black-Draught
can give in cleansing the system and
preventing or relieving the troubles
that come from constipation, indi
gestion, lazy liver, etc.
Try Black-Draught. Sold by all
druggists.—(Advt.)
Neglected Coughs And
Colds Are Dangerous
LADY IN BROOKLYN, N. Y.
NARROWLY ESCAPES DEATH
If people would only learn the folly
of neglecting a cough or cold, much
suffering could be averted and the
' development of many fatal diseases
prevented.
The experience of Sirs. R. S. Peder
sen, 129 Putnam Avenue, Brooklyn,
N. Y., merely emphasizes the neces
sity of having the proper medicine
on hand for such emergencies. She
writes:
“One winter I had a severe cold.
I doctored myself for several weeks
with various pills. Finally, I was
forced to go to bed with heavy cold
in chest and head. I had a good at
tack of Lagrippe with large lumps
in my neck. My father persuaded
me to take Pe-ru-na and I was out
of bed in two weeks. I continued
the remedy for several weeks and
feel better than ever. Pe-ru-na has
also relieved me of pains in the
back and sides. I always recom
mend Pe-ru-na and my father is a
constant user.”
Pe-ru-na, being a tonic laxative,
regulates the digestion, enriches the
blood, tones up the nerves and car
ries its soothing, healing influence
to the irritated, congested, mucous
membranes in all parts of the body.
It is very beneficial after protracted
illness or an attack of grip or Span
ish Influenza to restore strength and
vigor to the wasted body.
Do not fool with a cold or any
other catarrhal disease. It is dan
gerous. Get the right remedy in the
first place, the remedy that for fifty
years has been known as a success
ful treatment for catarrh.
Your dealer handles Pe-ru-na in

The Honor Roll
I know that many of you have
been reading the news from the Near
East workers, and that you are glad
that you have done some of the giv
ing yourself; Our hearts are stir
red over the way those people suf
fer, and it seems to me that Amer
ica, the United States and Canada,
will yet have to go over there and
settle the awful Turks. Here is our
last contribution, unless you decide
to add to your fund. As you moth
ers put caps and gloves and warm
coats on your little folks do you
ever think of those brave boys and
girls wrapped in sacks that horse
feed was in, or discarded rags left
by the soldiers? I have turned the
situation over and over. Some
times I want to send provision for
another child then I think of the
cold weather that is in the moun
tains and I then decide to give my
next tenth to the lump sum, and thus
it goes.

Dear Miss Thomas: Enclosed you
will find a money order for $1 for the
benefit of the suffering Armenians.
It makes my heart ache when I read
about how other people have been im

May you both live a long time to car

Dear Mrs. Thomas: I wrote to
you four years ago, and was glad
to see my letter in the Gear old
Journal. I’m sending $1 to you for
the Armenian orphan and am glad
of the privilege to do so. I’m in
deed sorry to see so few letters from
the Household. I’ve always enjoyed
them, especially on flowers and
chickens. Let us all arouse and
write oftener during the lew year,
and let one another know of each

Dea’r Mrs. Thomas: Glad to see
your letters In The Atlanta Journal
and that you are getting up a fund
to help some little Armenian or
phan, and am sure there must be
lots of them that need our help.
Where shall we buy bread that these
may eat? Some one may say Jesus
said, “Give ye them to eat."
“Inasmuch as ye did it unto one
of the least of these, my brethren',
ye have done it unto Me.”
And what would we not do for the
Lord? We that love Him. Would
we let Him go hungry, naked and
cold at our doors when He has bless
ed us with plenty, and shall we not
take care of our brother? When the
love of Christ has filled our hearts
that love also goes out to our fel
low men-.
May the Lord bless you and your
work for Him in the past year and
the coming.
Am sending a check to help some
on the fund for Armenian orphans.

My Dear Benefactress: For such
you have long since been by your
helpful writings published in The
Semi-Weekly Journal. Only when
“the books are opened” will it be
revealed the vast amount of good
you have done. Weary, tired ones
have caught new inspiration from
youi’ hopeful words and have been
encouraged to “try again.”
I could write you a long letter,
telling you of many Instances where
you have “helped me over rough
places,” but will only say this: I
thank God at every remembrance of
your name and what you mean to
me, and inclose $1 for the Armenian
baby. Yours most sincerely,
MRS. L. T. CREECH.
Morven, Ga.
Dear Mrs. Thomasr After reading
your last letter, I felt I ought to
write and tell you that it stirred my
very soul and caused me to serious
ly consider whether or not my life
counts for the things worth while.
I ofttlmes fear that my life is too
selfish and that I do not live to bless
the lives of others as God Intended
that we should. So many times when
I have felt discouraged and blue
(have I turned to the columns of The
Journal and read your letters there
to find courage anew for the task
that was mine. It is so like human
beings to crave and enjoy words of
sympathy and encouragement, but
■after all I think it is a divine power
working through human instrumen
tality. Don’t you?
I happened to an accident one
week ago today that no doubt has
been a blessing in disguise for me,
but I am so thankful that it was no
worse.
The horse turned the buggy over,
threw me out, one foot hung and
dragged me a few steps, spraining
my knee so badly that it will likely
be some time before I am able to
walk. I was very sirik for thirty-six
hours after the accident, and could
not be taken home. I was among
strangers when It happened and they
certainly were good Samaritans.
I have many things I’d like to
write, but you are such a busy wom
an. My little adopted daughter sends
this money. She read the little boy’s
letter, so he has this to his credit,
too.
May you live many, many years
for your good work. Sincerely,
MRS. S.
McFMI, Ala., Feb. 29, 1930.
Mrs. Thomas,
Dear Friend and Sister:
I say sister because you are a
child of God and “I know that my

MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
I am a girt, nineteen years of age,
■coming to you for advice. lam blue
eyed, black-headed, fair complexion,
five feet four inches. How long
should I wear my dresses?
Do you think I am too young for
boy friends? I am going with a boy
aged twenty-five years. He is a nice
boy. He has but one falling—that is
he don’t like work any too well.
He seems to be in love with me
very much. He has been just as true
to me as the day is long, but my
parents object to him coming. What
must I do? I am not in love
with him so very much.
Is there any harm in giving rook
pari.ies? '
Is it any harm for me to talk to
my school teacher as a friend when
I am not to blame?
What should I say when a boy
passes a compliment on me?
What must I do? There are five
children in family. I obey better than
any of them and they all seem to be
against mo and don’t want to buy
me anything. What must I do?
Give me a good remedy for
asthma. I have stayed too long, but
I am in trouble.
BLUE EYES MAY.
Dresses are worn shorter this
season than they were last.
About eight or nine inches from
the floor is a good length. If you
are not considering the young
man seriously, perhaps your par
ents will get over their dislike
for him. If he doesn't like to
work, my advice to you is not
to marry him. A man who hasn’t
any ambition or energy to work
makes a sorry husband. There
is no harm in rook parties.
There is no harm in your talk
ing to your school teacher on
purely a friendly basis, but there
is harm in an intimate conver
sation. Young girls can’t be too
particular. Compliments when
given should be acknowledged
with a polite “thank you,”
whether they are said sincerely
or not. Perhaps you are to
blame for the attitude your fam
ily have toward you. Vanity
often leads to destruction. I
wouldn’t let my mind dwell too
much on the question of clothes.
Perhaps your parents have rea
sons for not buying you more.
Try to be contented with your
lot, and the future may bring
to you better things. Asthma is
very hard to cure. I don’t know
of anything that will help you.
Better see a physician.
We are two lonely girls coming to
you for advice. We are two chums,
ages twenty-one and fourteen. I,
the twenty-one-year-old, am going
with a boy, twenty-three. He comes
to see me once a month. He says he
loves me, though I don’t believe it.
Is it any harm to go car driving
with the boys in afternoons. Is
there any harm in a boy giving a
girl a watch bracelet? I, the four
teen-year-old, am in love with a boy
aged eighteen. He says he loves me
dearly, that he never will be happy
without me. He comes to see me
about every two weeks. Is there any
harm for him to give me chocolate
candy? How late should be stay at
night when he comes to see me?
Please advise us; we are two lonely
girls.
LONESOME BLOSSOM.
If the young man says he
loves you, you must believe what
he says until he proves to you he
is false. To believe in people
makes them believe in you. There
isn’t any harm Im going motor
ing in the afternoon, provided
you don’t go too far; of course,
young boys and girls should have
a chaperon if they are going on
long drives. I don’t think it is
very nice for young girts to ac
cept jewelry from men. But
sometimes circumstances alter
cases. There isn’t any harm in
a young man giving you an oc-
for five years. We have a boy thir
teen, and he is our dependence to
make the crop.
Wishing you and yours every suc
cess, I am
Your friend,
MRS. J. J. T,
Alamo, Ga., Rt. A, Feb. 27, 1920.
Dear Mrs. Thomas:
Last year we lived too far for our
children to attend Sunday school, so
we had a little Sunday school in our
home, and since we moved near one
I have thought we ought to send the
little money we had left over to the
Near East sufferers. This is a small
amount, but perhaps it will help
some.
You wonder why I’ve waited so
ong to send it? Wei, there are nine
children to get off to school every
morning. However, they are near
enough to come home to dinner and
the larger ones get the smaller ones
ready, yet there is much for the
mother to do and there has been sick
ness in our family, too. I enjoy your
letters in The Journal so much. Ev
eryone that I read from you has
helped me and I’ve been a regular
reader of The Journal for years.
I raised some nice chickens from
the rooster you sent me. I have six
hens setting now. Enclosed you will
find the money from the Barlow
Sunday School. With best wishes.

Counterfeit Money
Feared by Mexico
WASHINGTON, March 9.—Resi
dents of Mexico have been warned by
the foreign office to be on guard
against efforts that may be made to
circulate in that country counter
feit money made in the United
States, according to advices receiv
ed by the state department. The
warning was based on a report by
Ramon P. de Negri, Mexican consul
general at New York, who, the for
eign office announced, estimated the
amount of spurious currency in cir
culation at $200,000,000, and advised
his government to adopt precaution
ary measures.

I am coming to you for advice.
Is there any harm in a girl going
horseback riding with a boy. I am
going with a boy and there are some
other girls pealous and would you
quit going with him or would you
not. I am 13 years old and 5 feet
tall and fair complexion and brown
curly haid. What colors would suit
me best. I am going with a boy age
20 and I love him better than any
one else. Is there any harm in a
girl lotting a boy teach her how to
drive a car? Is there any harm in
a girl letting a boy walk home with
her from church? Is there any harm
in a girl powdering and combing
her hair before a boy? What should
a girl say when a boy askes her
to marry him and she don’t want
to marry? How is my writing? I
don’t think it is much. Is there any
harm in a girl kissing a boy good
night? Do you think that we are old
enough to marry? Is there any harm
in a girl going with two boys at
one time? Wall, I want your best
advice and oblige.
Little Girl: You are still a
child and I hate to see one at
your tender age playing with
Are. jealousy, love
and vanity.” Leave them for old
er and wiser heads. Take my ad
vice, dear, run out and play.
Keep your curly head free of
such nonsense, as marriage and
settle down to having plain fun.
A boy of twenty is too old for a
girl of thirteen. And such things
as riding around in automobiles,
accepting presents from boys
and allowing them privileges
with you is wrong, exceedingly
wrong, and It will harm you.
Here comes another girl in trou
ble. What will make my face smooth,
as I have blackheads and they gen
erally just make sores on my face
like boils. As I am rather fleshy
what can I do to make myself
slimmer? What Can I do to make
my friends think more of me? Is it
alright to kiss a boy friend bood
bye when he 4s going a long ways
off? What kind of powder and cold
cream is best? Is it proper for girls
to go hunting and horseback rid
ing? What finger should the birth
stone ring be worn? Is it alright
to let a boy put fair arm around you
when you go for a drive?
Thanking you very much,
MAGGIE.
First I win ask you what do
you eat? Lots of pastry, choco
late, sweets and heavy meats?
If you do and your face is in
clined to be bumpy they will be
much worse. Keep your system
in good order by drinking lots
of water, and eating very spar
ingly of the things I mention
ed, above. Eat moslty vegetables.
Get plenty of fresh air and main
ly keep your skin clean. First a
good, pure soap. Woodberry’s is
very good. See that your wash
cloth is fresh and clean. Rinse
the face in warm water, lastly
in cold water. Don’t use any
kind of face cream unless It is
medicated. When your face be
gins to heal, you may then use a
good cleansing cream and very
little powder. I know a very
good prescription that will help
your condition if you wiH send
me your address. Yes, you may
wear your birth stone in a ring,
it is perfectly proper. No, it isn’t
proper or nice to let a boy put
his arm around you when you
go motoring. Familiarity breeds
contempt, he will only think less
of you.
How to Rid Flock of
“Stick-Tight” Fleas
In many of th© southern and
southwestern states fowls and
chicks are often infested by a spe
cies of flea, commonly known as
the “stick-tight” flea, because of its
habit of sticking to one place on
the bird instead of moving about
like lice and mites. They are usually
found in clusters on the comb, wat
tles, and around the eyes. Chicks,
when infested, often die quickly.
Old fowls, while usually stronger
and more resistant, will cease lay
ing, or nearly so, and sometimes
die as the result of the attacks.
“Stick-tight” fleas breed in cracks
and crevices of brood coops and
poultry houses, and dry animal or
vegetable refuse, but not in damp
or wet places. Therefore, to get rid
of them it Is necessary to clean
and spray the houses and runs thor
oughly, as well as to treat the
birds, say poultry specialists in the
United States Department of Agri
culture. Grease the comb and wat
tles of the fowls and chicks with a
preparation of kerosene and lard—l
part kerosene to 3 parts of lard—
being very careful not to use too
much of the mixture or get any of
it in the birds’ eyes or on other
places where it is not necessary, as
it may cause Injury if used too
freely.
Clean and spray the coops and
houses throughly, the same as for
poultry mites; also wet or spray
the yards or runs, especially any
dry floors or ground underneath a
board floor, with a solution of salt
and water, which helps to keep
the ground moist and prevents the
fleas from breeding.
My Own Recipes
When it is impossible to get calves’
liver try pig's liver. It really is very
good and if prepared in a rather
dressy fashion even the most criti
cal can find no flaw. Beef liver is
not very good, so I wouldn’t advise
trying it in an effort to beat the
H. C. L.
Apples With Oatmeal
Four large apples, 3 cups water,
1 cup sugar, candled orange peel,
cooked oatmeal.
Prepare oatmeal as usual the day
before using. Pare and core apples,
making large cavities in the center.
Dissolve sugar in water and add
orange peel. If orange peel is not at
hand, use one-third cupful more of
sugar and the grated rind and juice
of one-half an orange. Cook apples
in liquid, turning frequently to cook
evenly. When done arrange In oat
meal dishes and fill centers with oat
meal. 801 l down sugar and water
until it is a medium-thick syrup and
pour over apples. Serve with sugar
and top milk.
Braised Liver
Three slices bacon, 1 pound liver,
1-2 onion, 1 pepper, 3 carrots, 1-2
cup minced celery tops, 1 tablespoon
vinegar, 6 whole cloves, salt and
pepper.
Put bacon in casserole and brown.
Slice onion and pepper (seeded) and
add to bacon. Slice and parboil liver.
Add to onions and dredge thickly
with flour. Fry for 10 minutes,
turning meat once. Add carrots cut
in strips, celery and cloves. Put
vinegar into three-fourths cup of
boiling water and pour over meat.
Cover closely and bake in a mod
erate oven about two hours. This
dish may be prepared without slic
ing and parboiling the liver, but it
makes a rather strong flavored meat.
DOROTHY DIX’S TALKS
Friend Father
BY DOROTHY DIX
The Highest Paid Woman Writer in the World
MR. MAN how well acquaint
ed are you with your daugh
ter? Have you ever had a
real conversation with her in your
life?
I don’t mean the times when you
have done the stern father act and
forbidden her to do something she
wanted to do, or scolded her for
something she did do.
Neither do I mean the times when
she has sat on the arm of your chair,
and kissed the bald spot on the top
of your head, and wheedled you out
of a check, and you called her a
little grafter, and thought she was
the sweetest thing in the world, and
gave her twice as much as she asked
for.
You have thought of her as a baby,
as a toy, as a something to be work
ed for, and kept safe, and soft, and
guarded and protected.
But did you ever think of your
little daughter as a real human be
ing, with thoughts and ideas of her
own, and plans and ambitions, and
desires and hopes, and as facing
problems and dangers and tempta
tions even as you and I?
And did you ever try to meet her
on that plane, not of father and
daughter, but just of two friends
who could sit down quietly together
and talk things over freely with one
another?
I’ll warrant you never did, and
that of all the strange women in
the world the strangest to you is
your own little daughter.
You are not half so well acquaint
ed with her as you are with your
stenographer, or the girls in your
office, or store. You have a very
good idea of what they think, and
of what they are likely to do under
any given set of circumstances, but
y ou haven’t the remotest idea of what
your own Mabie thinks or would do.
Believe me, in not knowing your
own daughter you are missing one of
the greatest treats that life has to
offer you. You may think Mabie
rather silly because she is always
giggling, or else glum and silent,
with nothing to say, in your pres
ence. That is because she is em
barrassed and ill at ease when she
is in company of a man who is such
a stranger to her as her own father
is. If you will chum with her a
little you will find out that that
pretty little fluffy head of hers is
as well furnished inside as it is
outside, and that she’s got all sorts
of Interesting ideas.
And you’ll be enchanted, and en
tertained at her new point of view,
and exhilarated by her high spirits,
and you will find out that taking
your own daughter out to dinner is
a thousand times more fun than any
old rounder gets out of feeding the
chickens.
So much for what you will get
out of getting acquainted with your
own daughter. As for her part, don’t
you think you owe it to her?
Os course, you salve your con
science for the way in Which you
have neglected Mabie by saying that
you leave the rearing of the girls
to their mother, and you talk vague
ly, and confidently, about mother’*
influence as If that was some sort
of a white magic that never failed
to work under any possible condi
tions.
As a matter of fact, mothers are
no more capable of bringing up girls
alone and unaided than they are
boys. Mother does her best, but she
has her limitations. She has not
had the experience of life, she has
not the knowledge of men and the
actual condition of affairs in the
world that enable her to be the
friend, counsellor and guide to her
children that their father can be.
Especially to her girls.
Just where the girls are weak and
need help, mother is only too often
weaker, and more helpless still. In
deed, in these days, often a mother
Is far more romantic and sentimental
and less sophisticated and worldly
wise than her debutante daughter.
Moreover, a woman has no oppor
tunity to find out about what sort
of a man the youths are who hang
about her daughter, but, a casual
Inquiry made In the right places will
enable another man to ascertain
everything about them.
As a general thing a man Is even
less acquainted with the men who
visit his house, and court his daugh
ter, than he is with the daughter
herself. The first time he ever gives
a serious thought to young Smith
kins or makes the sligest investiga
tion as to who and what he is, is
when he is told that Mabie is en
gaged to the youth in question and
Is going to marry him.
And then it is too late. Tragical
ly too late. Criminally too late if
young Smithkins happens to be the
wrong sort.
Father can do nothing then, but
he could have saved Mabie from life
long misery if he had only been on
visiting terms with her; if he had
only been well enough acquainted
with her to have found out which
way the wind of her fancy was blow
ing, so that he could have turned
it in another direction by telling her
that the boys said that Smithkins
was a rotter, or that Smithkins drank
too much, or that he let his old
mother take in boarders to support
him, or that he had a past life that
did not bear investigating.
Girls are no fools. They do not
deliberately commit matrimonial sui
cide by marrying men who are dis
sipated and no account. They want
husbands who will be prosperous
and successful, and of whom they
may be proud, and ninety-nine times
out of a hundred father could steer
his daughter away from a disastrous

More than that, a girl will be more
confidential with her father and open
her heart more freely to him than
she ever will to her mother, just as
a boy will tell things to his mother
that he can never bring himself to
tell to his father, and so it makes
it easier for fathers to protect their
daughters than it is for mothers.

This Little Cow Has Some
Record for One So Young
LOUISIANA, Mo. —Roy Patterson,
living in South Pike, has a Here
ford cow that he believes has a rec
ord that will be hard to excel, or
even equal, by any other boine in
Missouri, and he says he is will
ing to back her against all comers.
She is only eleven years old, yet
she has 28 living descendants,
among which are 11 bulls. The cow
is an excellent milk producer and
her record for milk Is equal to that
Pf her progeny.
And at that she had a rather hum
ble start in her record making ca
reer. At a sale a few years ago,
held by Patton, she was knocked
clown to the highest bidder at $35.
Two years later Patton bought her
back at $153.50 and was glad to
get her at that price. It is since
that time that she has established
the biggest part of her usual record
and bids fair to continue It for sev
eral years yet.

BEAUTY SPECIALIST
TELLS SECRET
A Beauty Specialist Gives Home-
Made Recipe to Darken Gray Hair.
Mrs. M. D. Gillespie, a well-known
beauty specialist of Kansas City, re
cently gave out the following state
ment regarding gray hair:
“Anyone can prepare a simple
mixture at home that will darken
gray hair, and make it soft and
glossy. To a half-pint of water add
1 ounce of bay rum, a small box
of Barbo Compound and 1-4 ounce
of glycerine.
These Ingredients can be pur
chased at any drug store at very
little cost. Apply to the hair twice
a week until the desired shade is
obtained. This will make a gray
haired person look twenty years
younger. It does not color the
scalp, is not sticky or greasy and
does not rub off.”—(Advt.)
