The amended law will not permit
any child under fourteen to be en-
plOyed at manual labor during the
school term, and those between four
teen and sixteen cannot work with
out a certificate from the local facto-
ry inspector which sets forth the ne
cessity of the case. In these days of
keen competition it is not fair to a
child to bring him up in ignorance
for the sake of the pittance he can
earn.

Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most compe-
tent authorities. They have dis
covered the silly notion that one
kind of food is needed for brain
another for muscle, and still an
other for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish a particular
part of the body, but will sustain
every other part. Yet, however
good your food may be, it's nutri-
ment is destroyed by indigestion
or dyspepsia. You must prepare
for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower,
the favorite medicine of the
healthy millions. A few doses
aids digestion, stimulates the liver
to healthy action, purlties the
blood and makes you feel buoyant
and vigorous. You can get Dr.
Green's reliable remedies at d. A,

pains were SO intense that I actually
feared they would drive me mad.
my eyes ached constantly aud there
was alwaysa burning sensation over my

sometimes they were acute, and again
they were dull and lingering. I could
not sleep. My temper was irritable and

further apart, as I kept OH using DR.. Will
