Give That Puny Child This Guaranteed
Medicine

If your child is under weight, listless
ailing, liable to get sick easily, it needs
q medicine to build its weight and
strength. For this purpose there is
nothing else we know of that we can so
strongly endorse as Rexall Olive Oil
Emulsion. The remarkable success of
this splendid medicine is due to the
fact that it contains ingredients, that
tone the nerves, enrich the blood and
furnish to the entire system the strength
weight and health building substances
it needs. And, it does all this without
injuring the stomach. In fact, Rexall
Olive Oil Emulsion is not only pleasant
TO take, but even the most senitive
stomach is benefited by it, and the
digestion improved. On the other hand,
it contains no alcohol or habit-forming
drugs, which most parents object to
giving their children. 1t does its good
work by taking hold of its weakness
and builds the body up to its natural
strength, at the same time making it
strong to resist disease
IL Rexall Olive Oil Emulsion doesn't
build your child up, feed the stunted
puny muscles, and make the little one
lively, strong, well and full of the ami
NAL spirits children are meant by nature
to have, come back and tell us and get
your money back. We don't want you
to lose cent. We think this is no
more than fair, and it leaves you no
cause to hesitate. For old people also
for convalescents-for all who are
nervous, tired-out, rundown, no matter
what the cause-we offer Rexall Olive
Oil Emulsion with the same guarantee
of entire satisfaction or money back.
Sold only at the 1000 Rexall Stores,
and in this town only by us. Sl.00-

The K. Of C. Oath"

Two men have pleaded guilty to con
spiracy and libel in Philadelphia in con.
nection with circulating the scurrilous
Knights of Columbus oath placed in
circulation two years ago to prejudice
people against members of this worthy
and patriotic organization. The defend
ants admitted that the oath" abso-
lutely was without foundation. The
national officers of the Knights of Col.
umbus, satisfied with this showing, de.
clined to prosecute the case further, the
vindication of the order being complete.
The Reputation was complete enough
in the minds of all fair-minded citizens
before this action was brought in court.
Such vindictivenessa as characterized the
authorship and circulation of this de.
famatory document should have no
place among decent Americans, who
should be willing at all times to unite
in any movement to fight bigotry and
intolerance, nE
