SPEAKING of Mothers Day which has been more generally observed this year than usual, to many of us this day has a new signifance.

EXPERIMENTS which have been con- ducted by number of state experi- ment station in the matter of smudg- ing fruit trees to prevent frost damage would seem to indicate that it is not the heat generated by the smudge or fire that keeps the fruit from freezing, but that the smoke generated forms a blanket which keeps cold air from penetrating the smoke zone and holds down the neat radiating from the earth. The smudge, according to this view, is a means of heat conservation rather than heat production. It also furthur serves the purpose of obscur- ing the light of the sun in the early morning hours, thus preventing rapid thawing of blossoms that may have been frostbitten.

Free Sample
 Aids Old men

The sudden change from years of activity of both body and mind to the quiet of later years causes the human system to undergo many changes, chief of which is in the di- gestive organs.
 It becomes harder and harder to get the bowels to move promptly and regularly and in consequence many elderly men suf- Ter not only from the basic touble. con- stlpation, but from indigestion, headache belching. sour stomach, drowsiness after eating and similar annoyances. It is first or all necessary to keep the bowels open and then to tone the digestive muscles so hs 10 get them to again do their work naturally. A violent cathartic or purga- tive is not only unnecessary but harm iul; and something mild will do the work
 After you have got through experiment. ing with salts and pills and waters of various kinds. and have become convinced that they do only temporary good at best, then try pr. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin, a mild, gentle. pleasant-tasting laxative tonic that is especially adapted to the requirements of old people, women and chiidren. and yet is effective enough for anyoody. Your druggist, who has handled It successfully for a quarter of Q cen- tury. will sell you a bottle for fifty cents or one one collar but if you, want to make send your name and address to Dr. Cald. well and he will gladly send you a sample bottle free of charge
 This remedy is rapidly displacing ali other forms of medication for the cure or stomach. liver and bowel trouble. and families like MT. O. F. Wisher's of Syca- more. Ill. and Mrs. Carrie Culler's of 325 N. Notre Dame street. South Bend. Ind. are now never without it in the house. They have tested it and know it's grand value to every member of the family.
 pr. Caldwell personally will be pleased to give you any medical advice you may desire for yourself or family pertaining to the stomach, liver or bowels absolutely free of charge. Explain your case in a letter and he will reply to you in detail For the free sample simply send your name and address on a postal card or otherwise. For either request the doctors address is pr. w.

ONE of the best, brightest things you give, is kind words. They have well been likened to the bright flowers of earth's existence. Use them every where, but especially around the fire side; they will make paradise out of a hovel. Nothing can heal a wounded heart, or cheer a crushed spirit like kind words. Let us not be so careful how we use them, for they are the grea test blessing earth can give.

IT is pretty dull child that does not know by two years of age whether it or it's parents is master of the situation so far as family discipline is concerned. It is not pleasant thing to have a settlement with child, but if this is done as it should be it will often pre- vent great deal of worry and annoy ance as well as be of great benefit to the child. Force of character, dignity and consistency in discipline are the factors that are chiefly needed.
