Dear Miss Fairfax:

whom l see very often. For the
last two months ! have had to do
night work, because my employer
has found business dull and had
to do away with some of his help.
A week ago he told me that /
would have to continue working
nights for about four weeks,
making 1t impossible fSs me to
see my young man so often as
before. Now, he is continually
quarreling with me, and wants me
to look for another position.

TO interfere in such case when

We sat on the sloping bank with

bees humming in the air, the sea fowl

siderably less than meat.
Take Faust Macaroni for instance.

advantage, too, in that 1t is much

Observation-Disclosures

If your child is under weight, list
less, ailing, liable to get sick eaily,
it needs a medicine to build it's
weight and strength. For this purpose
there is nothing else we know OF that
we can so strongly endorse as Rexsll
Olive Oil Emulsion. The remarkable
success of this splendid medicine is
due to the fact that it contains in
gradients 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 sensitive
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. It
does it's good work by ticking hold Of
the weakness and builds the body up
to it's natural strength. at the same
time making it strong to resist disease.
