MADE PROFIT OF His VISIT
Unexpected Call of Paderewski Turned
to Good Account by Music
Teacher.

Paderewski arrived in a small west
ern town about o o one day and de-
cided to take a walk in the afternoon.
While strolling along he heard a piano
and. following the sound, came to a
house on which was a sign reading:
Miss Jones. Piano Lessons 2s
Cents an Hour"
Pausing to listen, he heard the
young lady trying to play one of Cho-
pins %nocturnes and not succeeding
very well.
Paderewski walked up to the house
and knocked. Miss Jones came to the
door and recognized him at once. De-
lighted, she invited him in and he sat
down and played the nocturne as only
Paderewski can, afterward spending
an hour in correcting her mistakes.
Miss Jones thanked him and he de-
parted.
Some months afterward he returned
to the town and again took the same
walk.
He 500 came to the home Of Miss
Jones and, looking at the sign, read:
Miss Jones. Piano Lessons 81 an
hour. pupil of P~aderewski.)"

ARE YOU DlSFIGURED
BY SKIN ERUPTl0N2

Pimples, rashes, ~ringworm, prickly-
heat and, worst of all, that red itch
ing, scaly torment, eczema, vanish
when you use resinol ointment and
resinol soap. There is no doubt about
1t. Even though your skin is so
unsightly with eruption that you shun
your friends and your friends shun
you, resinol usually makes 1t clear
and healthy, quickly, easily and at
trifing cost. When you are sick of
wasting time and money on tedious,
expensive treatments, get resinol oint-
ment and resinol soap from the near
est druggist and you will quickly see
why physicians have prescribed them
for twenty years for just such troubles
as yours! Great for sunburn.-Adv.

Baby's Happiness
Depends On Health

Cross, fretful babies usually need
a laxative to make them comfort
able, and comfort begets happiness.
Constipation is the cause of much
discomfort. Mothers should watch
closely the condition of their chill
dren's bowels and see that they are
regular.
A mild, pleasant tasting laxative
such as DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, is ideal for children because CT
its natural composition and gentle
action, and because it contains no
opiate, narcotic or other harmful
habit forming drug. DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin is sold by druggists
everywhere. A teaspoonful at bed
time will bring easy, certain relief.
A free trial bottle can be OBTAINED
by writing to DR.. w. B. Caldwell.

played chauffeur in Orchids home
he did not manage to see her
alone. Once, by the merest chance
he was called to the phone by mis-.
take, to speak to her. She had
told him sweetly that Central
had given her the wrong number,
then added that she would like to
have the car the next afternoon to
take some girls in the country.
Bob spent the next morning
polishing up the car. Perhaps the
other girls would wander away
after wild flowers and give him
his chance to tell her Of his love.
