Errors of His WAYS.

"A good New Year resolution for

George AIDE at a dinner In Chicago.
We'll the best resolution middle
aged married man could make, accord

swear off telling his wife and children
about the girls he used to kiss in his
young days.
I'D say to the middle-aged married
man of this type:
Suppose, friend, your wife fell into
reminiscent, jovial mood some eve

about the boys who used to kiss her
by the wood stove in the dim parlor,

CHARACTER TOLD BY NOSE
Some Truth and Whole Lot Of Fool
lehness Contained In the PatteF
Of the Wise Ones.

Some crack-sure. classi6ers of hu.
maniaT have turned their attention
lately TO the shape of peoples noses.
It IL the nose, we are told nov. that
makes, or at least reveals, the man.
A Roman nose means aggressive
ness. courage, executive ability. II be
longs to great warriors and captains OF
industry. The Grecian nose indicates
refinement. often accompanied by tim
Idity. The snub nose indicates child
like. undeveloped type OF mind. And
so on. as long as white paper and
printing Ink can induce the strain OF
chronlcling such imbecilities
Perhaps there Is an element of truth
In these conjectures. but 1t is terribly
small Alexander the Great wac a
warrior OF some repute. whom no one
has accused of timidity and few have
charged with refinement His nose,
like his blood, was pure Greek. Socra-
ties had snub nose of pronounced
type, but his heroic life OF seventy
years shows no childish quality. unless
II be bluntness OF speech. The nose
and ambitions OF Louis XIV. were Ro-
man. but he was physically coward,
and his executive ability consisted in
ccmenting despot:sm that had to be
wrecked before his country could re-
sumo It's progress.
These be individuals. Masses show
the same disregard for ready-made
rules. Considering their numbers. the
Scandinaylans OF the middle ages were
the greatest conquerors the world has
known--and Roman noses are as
scarce in Scandinavia as black hair.
The Japanese are predominantly
snub nosed. but he who takes them for
children has queer notions of a nur-
sery The spartans we're Greeks and
presumably Greek nosed. but their
name is Synonymous for dauntless
courage and their refinement was q
minus quantity.

Good Bowels Are

Growing Children Need . MID
LdNofSDe 70 Foster Regular
Bowel Movement.


AS a child grows older It requires
more and more personal attention
from the mother, and as the func-
tons OF the bowels are of the utmost
Importance to health, great attention
should be paid to them.
Diet is of great Importance. and the
mother should watch the effect of GER
tain foods. A food win constipate one
and not another, and so we have q
healthy food like eggs causing bilious
ness to thousands, and a wholesome
fruit like bananas constipating many.
1t Is also to be considered that the
child is growing, and great changes
are taking place in the young man or
young woman The system has not yet
settled itself to its later routine.
A very valuable remedy at this
stage, and one which every growing
boy and girl should be given often or
occasionally, according to the individ-
uaI circumstances, is DIR. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin. This Is laxative and
tonic combined. SO mild that it Ia
given to little babies, and yet equally
effective in the most robust constitu-
ton. At the first sign of tendency
to constipation give a small dose of
Syrup Pepsin at night on retiring, and
prompt action will follow in the morn
