No Cheeseparer.

The late George A. Hearn, the New
York millionaire art collector, was
noted for his generosity to his en-
ployes.
To a reporter who once congratu-
lated Mr.. Hearn on the high wages
and unusual comforts that his en-
ployes received Mr.. Hearn said:
Il don't believe in cheeseparing
economy in the treatment of those
whose hard work makes a mans sue
cess. Cheeseparing economy, applied
in that way, seems to be as mean and
paltry as the Yonkers man.
"A Yonkers man was summoned
from his evening paper by his wife's
frightened cry:
George. come quick! The cook has
tried to kill herself inhaling gas!'
"'Good gracious!' growled George
as he rushed to the kitchen. leaped
over the cooks PROSTATE form, and
turned of the cock-'good gracious,
think of what the gas bill will be this
month";" st. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Anup-to-date remedy for
colds. That is what Peruna
is. In successful use over
80 years.

Colds are caught in many
ways: lily ventilated rooms;
rooms that have direct draughts;
crowded rooms; damp houses;
stuffy school rooms; Offices lily
heated.
A dose of Peruna at the right
time, at the first symptom of
cold, before the bones begin to
ache, before the sore throat
manifests itself, or the cough, or
the discharge from the nose, just
a dose or two of Peruna before
these symptoms begin is gener-
ally sufficient. But after the cold
is once established with the
above symptoms prominent, a
bottle of Peruna, or maybe two,
will be necessary.

Watch Carefully
the ChiLd'S Diet
Starr Them of Right With a Good
Laxative and Then WafCh
Their Food.

Mothers are often unconsciously
very careless about the diet OF their
children. forcing all to eat the same
foods. The fact is that all foods do
not agree alike with different persons.
Hence, avoid what seems to constipate
the child or TO give it indigestion, and
urge 1t to take more of what is quick
ly digested.
If the child shows tendency to
constipation it should Immediately be
given mild laxative to help the bow
els. BY this is not meant a physic or
purgative, for these should never be
given TO children, nor anything like
salts. pills, etc. What the child re-
quires is simply a small dose of the
gentlest of medicines, such as DR..
Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. which. in the
opinion of thousands of watchful moth
ers, is the ideal remedy for any child
showing a tendency to constipation.
So many things can happen TO a con-
stipated child that care is necessary
Colds, piles, headaches, sleeplessness
and many other annoyances that chill
dren should not have can usually be
traced to constipation.
Many of Americas foremost families
are never without Syrup Pepsin, be-
cause one can never tell when some
member of the family may need it,,
and all can use it. Thousands endorse
