of greater than the average storm

turning to rain as the warm wave
comes in.
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about February 8, cross Pacific

calume. Guarantees Baking Economy.

Have you ever stopped to think just
what Economy in baking really means ?
Some folks seem to have the Idea that
saving a little on the cost of the mate
riais--the -four. eggs, etc.-ts economy.
Others are of the opinion that they have
been economical when they buy the low
priced baking powder. and save lOc to 25c.
But both are wrong For the real econ
omy-the economy that counts-consists In
doing away with the failures that so
often waste far more than is saved in
buying low-priced materials.
And that beyond n doubt Is the reason
that Calumet Baking Powder Is the favor
ite of millions of cooks. 1t absolutely
prevents. failures-and guarantees sue
cess-which In the emu is the same thing
as economy.
Calumet is unfalling-it makes every

more evenly raised-simply because il is

LIPS MAKE OR MAR BEAUTY
Sensitive, Mobile Mouth VIII Make
an Otherwise Plain Face Attrac-
tive, Declares Woman Writer.

ITO begin with. beautiful lips are
mobile and flexible. No matter how
perfect their contour, lips that are fix
ed and tight are never attractive.
Then. too, holding the lips in a fixed
position quickly ages the face and in
duces lines In it even less attractive
than the line of the mouth. Persons
who make constant use of their lips
in laughter. conversation. or singing
preserve the charm of youth and
mobility in them that is not apt to be
apparent in those given to silence.
This, alone. indicates the necessity for
exercise, and all beauty culturists ad-
wise exercise of the lips to preserve
a youthful face and keep the mouth
flexible and attractive"
Marie Montaigne makes this point
in an article in Harper's Bazaar. She
goes on to say:
odd as it may seem. it becomes
quite impossible TO cherish Irritating
thoughts when the corners of the lips
are turned up. Insensibly little sprites
of happy memories come dancing into
the mind and the lines about the
mouth smooth out or take on sweet
curves. Laughter is essential to
pretty mouth Not the constant laugh
ter that stretches the lips and lines
the cheeks. but that merriment which
keeps the lips flexible and drives
away burrows of care"

Bowels Get !
AS Age 4
The First Necessity is to
Keep the Bowels Gently
Open With a Mild
Laxative Tonic

Healthy old age is so absolutely de-
pendent upon the condition of the
bowels that great care should be taken
TO see that they act regularly. The fact
is that as age advances the stomach
muscles become weak and inactive
and the liver does not store up the
juices that are necessary to prompt
digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eat
ing easily digested foods and by
plenty of exercise, but this latter is
irksome to most elderly people. One
thing is certain. that state of con-
stipation should always be avoided as
Il is dangerous TO life and health. The
best plan is TO take a mild laxative
as often as is deemed necessary, But
with equal certainty it is suggested
that cathartics. purgatives. physics.
salts and pills be avoided, as they do
but temporary good and are so harsh
as to be a shock to a delicate system.
A much better plan. and one that
thousands of elderly people are follow
ing, is to take a gentle laxative tonic
like DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
which acts as nearly like nature as is
possible. In fact, the tendency of this
remedy is to strengthen the stomach
and bowel muscles and so train them
to act naturally again. when medicines
of all kinds can usually be dispensed
with. This is the opinion of many
people of different ages, among them
