THE GENTLE SEX
Non Reading Ladies

Some women think the usefulness Of
a newspaper is having plenty OF old
papers in the kitchen to put on the
shelves or wrap bundles in. They
never glance inside a paper; il they do,
it is to read some trivial stun which
children say or take a hurried glance
at the society column. ~.
Not long ago one woman saw an ar
ticle headed "Sankey and Moody" a
narrative regarding past glories OF the
two men. She did not read the ar
ticle but. threw down the paper. ev-
claiming: "Sankey and Moody, sankey
and Moody. get disgusted reading
about these old pugilists."
II one woman had read books a little
more very likely she would not have
been the innocent cause Of some laugh
ter at a party one evening. when some-
one asked her II she had ever read
'Enoch Arden" She looked wise
yawned and replied: "Oh, yes, but
don't believe he ever went to sleep and
slept for twenty years" One lady OF
the top notch Of society realms reads
not. neither does she observe, but hei
loquacious spirit cannot be surpassed

IMPROVED MEMORY
And Increased Weight From Eating
Proper FoFo cd.

The memory and other important
functions OF the brain are greatly influ-
enced by the condition Of the digestive
organs.
This may seem strange to persons
who do not stop to realize that every
new cell in the brain is made up from
the food that is taken into the stom-
ach, because every thought wastes
cells which have to be replaced by
others.
When the proper food is used and
fully digested. so there's no fermenta-
tion and poisonous waste manufactured
in the body. and the new cells are built
in rs fast as used up, the brain be-
comes clear and memory is sure 10 be
