Teach Your Child
How to Be Healthy
Regular Bowel Movement From In
fancy ENSURES Good Health
In Later Years.

We cannot all start life with the ad-
va1tages of money, but every child
born is entitled to the heritage OF
good health. Through unfortunate
ignorance or carelessness in the feed
ing of baby it's tiny stomach may
become deranged. The disorder
spreads to the bowels and before the
mother realizes it the two chief Or
gans on which the infants comfort
and health depend are causing it
great suffering. If the condition is
allowed to continue grave ailments
often result.
There is, however, no occasion for
alarm, and the sensible thing to do
but it should be done instantly-is to
give the baby a small dose of mild
laxative-tonic. In the opinion OF a
great many people, among them such
well-know1 persons as the parents of
Bertha Lee Woodland, 3 years old, of
Moultrie. Ca, the proper remedy is
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. Mrs.
l. N. GODDARD says that little Bertha
was troubled with constipation for
over a year, and that after trying sew
eral different kinds of remedies she
found her relief in Syrup Pepsin. 1t
is a mild, pleaSant-tasting laxative,
which every person likes, does not
grippe nor cramp, and contains that
most excellent of all digestants, pep

Wind pockets are exceptional, whereas
the snowy hillside is full Of traps for
the unwary.
1.-THE ski runner sweeps down the
hillside erect with a natural and grace
full poise. He creates pace without the
aid of machinery. Skiing is autoch-
thonous; it is born Of the Mother
Earth. Between you and the hillside
there Is an inch of sensitive ash that
pulses with every beat Of the slope.
The skis form an intimate link be-
tween you and the ever changing sur
face.
GAS they rise and fall, leaping over
hillocks, sinking into dips, they seem
at once living vital things, with will
and JOY that is all their own. And
this is the peculiar glory Of our craft.
It forces us to a knowledge of nature
in one Of her most fascinating moods.
The ski runner must adapt his tactics
to every change in the hillside, to
every tickle fancy of the snow. The
skater and the skeleton rider soon
learn to know the tricks of the rink or

CHINA'S YELLOW STREAKS.
Linked With the Country's Vast Beds
Of Cheeselike loess.


Some of the most characteristic i'm
pressions Of China are connected with
the great loess deposit that covers the
greater part of north China. In some
places it reaches a depth of 1900 feet
or 1000 feet. 1t is probably wind
borne accumulation of dried mud or
fine desert sand coming from the arid
Interior of Asia. 1t is uniform in COM
position and structure. unstratified,
splits vertically and contains land
shells, but no water shells.
The streams have cut down through
the loess and are all deeply stained
with its characteristic brown yellow.
1t is the loess that gives us Yellow

Roman Custom.

It was a custom even among the
comparatively modern Romans to bury
with their little children their favorite
toys. and the custom seems to reach
back to the earliest times Of which
we have any truthworthy relics. In

nishes a striking example of that
most primitive trait, mother instinct.

bly, the Bechuanas and the Basutos,

to lavish their pent up mother love
upon rude dolls until the advent OF
their offspring.

THRIFT AND THE MAN.
Self Help and Self Respect Allied to
Good CITIZENSHIP.

Thrift is an essential and imperative
part of good citizenship.
The man who sets aside few pence
or shillings every week or every month
is not only making future provision
for himself, his children or others who
may be dependent on him: but, con.
sciously or unconsciously he is at the
same time serving his country by help
ing to create type of character which
is one of the most valuable of national
assets.
He is setting an example of self COM
mand every time he fights down the
temptation to spend on some passing
pleasure the money which should be
reserved for more useful purpose.
And self command means much in
good citizenship.
He is setting an example of self
help. He does not wait for something
to turn up" but sets to work resolute-
ly to improve his position in life by his

Endurance.

or not, it is a fact H. our nature that.
without endurance, life ceases to be

One Wav to Get Touch,

Perhaps the most extraordinary Of all
methods of warding off cold is that
adopted by some of the tribes Of the
Canadian northwest. It is matter of
discipline. The boys when young are
first whipped in order to make their
flesh Jingle and then sent to battle in
the half frozen rivers. On entering
their teens they are made to lie out of
doors at night without clothing. The
consequence is that those who survive
are able to go naked in any weather
without the slightest discomfort.
