Unlike all other dental preparations, the cleansing
and purifying power Of Odol is not confined to
the few moments you are using the toothbrush. "
Odol neither cvaporates nor washes away in the saliva.
Instead it imprcgnates the gums and mucous membrane Of
the mouth and retains its microbe- destroying effectiveness
almost from one meal to the next.

CHRISTMAS 1.-THE HOLIDAY OF
ALL CREEDS AND ALL RACES

trifingly the act of good will may
be executed; it matters not that
men soon again return to the paths
of self-seeking; still hope and faith
rejoice in the fact that for a time
at least an ideal society exists
among men during which the COM
mon laws of organized communities
are changed and men seek Joy by
giving and happiness in promoting
the well-being of others. The inc
qualities of possession on one day
at least, by voluntary and universal
impulse, are in a measure redressed
by wealth giving from its abund-
ance to poverty and even by poverty
sharing it's crust with the poorer
still
Good cheer-good will-good
deeds! The world around socializes
the better impulses of mankind on
this day, and the brotherhood of
men that Christ came to teach and
to found is, il not fully realized, at
least visibly foreshadowed.

Luke XII, S-2O.l

s. And there were in the same
country shepherds abiding in the
field, keeping watch over their flock
by night.
8. And, 10, the angel of the
Lord came upon them, and the
glory of the Lord shone round
about them, and they were sore
afraid.
10. And the angel said unto
them, Fear not, for, behold, | bring
you good tidings of great joy, which
shall be to all people
IL. For unto you is born this
day in the city of David a Savior,
which is Christ the Lord.
~. And this shall be a sign
unto you. Ye shall find the babe
wrapped in swaddling clothes, ly-
ing in a manger.
10. And suddenly there was
with the angel a multitude of the
heavenly host praising God, and
saying:
IA. Glory to God in the high
est, and on earth peace, good will
toward men.
10. And it came to pass, as the
angels were gone away from them
into heaven, the shepherds said one
to another: Let US now go even
unto Bethlehem, and see this thing
which has come to pass, which the
Lord hath made known unto us.
16. And they came with haste,
and found Mary and Joseph and the
babe lying in a manager.
II. And when they had seen it,
they made known abroad the saying
which was told them concerning
this child.

ed at those things which were told
them by the shepherds.

things, and pondered them in her
heart.
20. And the shepherds return
ed, clarifying and praising God for
all the things that they had heard
and seen, as it was told unto them.

Made Strong and Well by VinoL
When we tell you that Vinol is the
best remedy in our whole stock for
making weak, puny, ailing children
strong, robust and rosy, we are only
telling you what has been proved by
hundreds of mothers.
Mrs. W. o. Strother, Raleigh, N. c.,
says: my little girl, Hazel, has been
taking Vinol to build her up after a
severe spell Of sickness. 1t has done
30 much good by restoring her appe-
tite and building up her strength that
] think Vinol is the finest tonic ever
prepared, and I am telling everyone
about It."
What Vinol did for this little
girl 1t will do for very weak and
ailing child, because siclkly children
need the strengthening cod liver
elements and the tonic iron that
Vinol contains-that is why Vinol
builds them up quickly and gives
them a fine, healthy color. 1t is
pleasant to take, and We guar
antee that the results will satisfy

Serving a 50-Year Term
For MatriCide.
CRUELTY KILLED HIS MOTHER
Because She and His Father
Spanked Him For RefuS.
ing to obey.
HE HAS UNUSUAL LIBERTIES

James Whitaker, scarcely IL
years old, is serving a term Of from
10 to so years in the Idaho S6te
Penitentiary for the murder Of his
mother. Clad in the regulation
prison garb Of a striped suit made
with knee trousers, the child is
confined not far from the cell of
Harry Orchard.
The young convict is not allowed
to associate with the convicts in the
prison yards, but is kept in the Ii
brary, where, under the direction
of the warden and the librarian the
little fellow daily studies and re-
cites his lessons in much the same
manner as he did before he was ia
ken from the schoolroom. The Ii
brarian, who is known as a "trus-
ty," is the only prisoner with whom
the boy is permitted to associate.
Whitaker has been a prisoner at
the institution only two months,
but he has unusual privileges. AL
though Bertillon measurements
have been taken and he has been
photographed and numbered
1919" the warden and the guards
do not believe for a moment that
the boy prisoner will try to escape.
The ordinary prisoner must have
served the greater part OF his SEN
tence before receiving the freedom
of the prison grounds outside the
walls. but Whittaker's case is a
singular one, and when the boy is
not studying or reciting his lessons,
he may be seen about the outside of
the walls playing hide and seek
with the warden's children or
amusing himself by teasing the
bloodhounds.
Not every liberty has been grant
ed to the boy, however, for at :
O'Clock, when the gong sounds, he
files through the great iron gate
way. In clear, shrill voice he
gives his number to the turnkey,
who counts him as one among the
260 prisoners.
Young Whitaker, in August,
1912, shot and instantly killed his
mother on a ranch near Sarilda,
Fremont county. The mother was
doing the family washing. She did
not have sufficient strength with
which to turn the wringer. She
asked her son to help her. He re-
fused.
His father spanked him and or
dered him to do the work. He did
not turn the wringer fast enough to
suit his mother, so she spanked
him. Shortly afterward she left
the house. When she returned the
child had procured his fathers
shotgun. without saying a word
he pointed the weapon at his moth
er and fired.
Specialists believe that the child's
mind is unbalanced, although at all
times he appears to be rational.
What is considered the strangest
feature of the case is that the boy
shows absolutely no feeling OF re-
morse for having killed his mother.

The Poor Rich People.

George w. Perkins was talking
to a reporter about the obloquy, SO
frequently unjust, which nowadays
attaches to great wealth.
"A little boy" he said, "once re-

Because, my son. the father

it was provided that a certain twenty
acres of land in what is now Council

as a smithy should be kept for that
purpose, other lands going to the gov

when the land should cease to be used
