The Days Good Stories
Still Het Up.

Apropos Of the recent resolution Of
the Bible students convention In
Washington re~pudiating the doctrine
OF q literal 'hell fire" DR.. Philip
Hale Curtin OF Wheeling said to q
reporter:
Hell ire is rarely mentioned any
more except In jest-except, for ex-
ample, as In the body-snatching story.
"a doctor according TO this story,
saw, late one night, . fine automo-
bile halted outside . cemetery. He
hid behind . tree, for he suspected
that body-snatchers were at work; and
sure enough, In q few minutes he saw
two body-snatchefs stagger from the
cemetery carrying . body. They plac-
de 1t upright In the automobile. as
though 1t were alive, %propping 1t Sc
curely In the back seat, and then
they hurried back to the cemetery to
ill up the violated grave again.
"The doctor in their absence lifted
the body out Of the automobile, hid
1t under . hedge, and took Its place
himself.
Soon the scoundrels returned. One
seated himself at the wheel. and the
other seated himself In the back seat,
beside the body, so ass to support 1t.
Then in the darkness they glided OIL.
After a while the man In the rear
seat said in q rather awed tone;
"This body seems mighty warm for
4 corpse"
The chauffeur reached back his
hand and touched 1t.
"Don't 1t thought" he muttered.
between perplexity and fear.
Then the corpse, In deep. sepulchral
tones, exclaimed:
"WarmP or course I'm warm! And
II you had been where I've been for
the last two days you'd be warm, too!
With loud yells Of horror the body
snatchers leaped from the auto and
fed. The doctors seized the wheel
and drove 1t home. He has It they
say still.

Woodrow Wilson, at a luncheon a

forward. AS he followed the windings
of the canon, not daring to ascend to
the summit on either wall and seek
short cuts across the range, he was
sensible that he was constantly rising.
There were many indications to his
experienced mind; the decrease in the
height of the surrounding pines, the
increasing rarity Of the Icy air, the
growing difficulty in breathing under
the sustained exertion he was making,
the quick throbbing Of his accelerated
heart. all told him he was approaching
his journeys end.
He judged that he must now be
drawing near the source of the stream,
and that he would presently come
upon the shelter. He had no means Of
ascertaining the time. He would not

glance at his watch, and 1t is difficult
to measure the flying minutes In such

banana-oil and shaped like banana;
two little men made out of licorice
paste; a taffy on a stick calculated
to destroy the teeth of childhood in
record time,-all these for five
cents. Quite a respectable collec-
ton when you get it together-for
bulk. Its variety is pleasing to the
imagination, and its violet lines are
as attractive to the primitive color
sense of the child as any carefully
planned Froebel toy.
There is, indeed, no question to
be raised against this candy. except
the vital one: Is it good for the in
fant's stomach? Do you think that
the five-year-old digestion of your
child will be bettered by receiving
to itself slab of amorphous matter
sweetened with glucose, favored
with mint, and colored with green
vegetable dye, the whole concoction
an inch and half wide and three
inches long? Let me hastily say
that none of the ingredients in this
form of sweets is in itself necessari-
ly poisonous; also, they are usually
manufactured under sanitary con-
ditions, and the ingenuity of their
appealing shapes and the variety of
their hues are certainly to be COM
mended, but-are they good for
children to eat?
"Until the child is ten years old,
at least, it seems not too much to
ask that the mother should know all
that her child eats. 1t is during
those years that a child's physical
health is being formed for good or
ill. The continual little gastric up
sets, choleras, nauseas, and all the
other minor ills that keep children
home from school for a day or two
are almost without exception the
result of injudicious feeding. A
great many of these ills could be
traced to the fatal penny, if we
were far-sighted enough to do sc" :"

Companion, Mary Heaton Worse de-
scribes the sickness that child can
| buy with one cent. Following is an
kract:
Making one-cent candy is in itself
a large branch of the candy business;
tons of it are manufactured every
wear. The fundamentals of the
trade are these: to give as large an
amount of some sweet substance as
is possible for cent; to make the
substance into the most attractive
shape; to ornament it with gaudy
colors.
1T is perfectly astonishing how
much of sweetness five cents can
buy. For five cents you may buy
six highly colored candies about the
size of marbles; all-day suckers two
for one cent; a pink, frothy marsh
pnallow thing, family smelling Of

No matter how healthy human being
may be, it is safe to say that not many
months are PISSED without some OBJ
struction of the bowels, in other words,
constipation, even if only temporary:
The bioating, the dull feeling may start
after the evening meal. If laxative is
not taken that night it is certain that
sleep will not be sound, and you will
awaken unrefreshed.
Hence, it isimportant for you and for
all the members of your family that a
good, reliable laxative be always kept in
the house for just such emergency. 1t
is sure to be needed, and when needed
you want it at hand. No family that is
careful of its health can do without such

remedy to have on hand is also of vast
