The Queen began to weep, too.
81 will never refuse you shelter,
whispered the pretty maple, quivering
in all it's leaves with indignation.
So, while the Curl got all of the rest
of the trees to promise to be mean to
the little gnomes, the maple remained
true. Winter came on and its branch
es were brown and bare, but still the
gnome Queen rode Fleet every day to
the messy circle.
One cold morning, while the Queen
rested for a while, Fleet sped away
and returned out of breath.
Il have found beautiful valley on
the other side of the mountain" he
said. 1T is covered with soft, green
grass and lovely white stones. There
are berries and fruits and flowers and
all kinds of gentle animals Let us go
there. Oh Queen.
Just then a crowd of gnomes came
rushing m.
"The Gdri says we must leave this
land a. once or he will drive us out"
they aid, as they wept.

LESS MEAT IF BACK
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Take glass of Salts to flush Kidneys

lots of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually pro-
duces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says a well-known authority, be-
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause ali sorts Of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic twin
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, cot
stipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or il bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in a glass Of water
before breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the urine go it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful efferveseent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.

varied. 1--WE are not happy because
financial worries are eating our hearts
out and taking the pleasure out OF
life" one man will answer.
Financial anxieties are very, very
hard to bear and all the more so be-
acuse not alone are we ourselves in
volved therein, for financial troubles
fall impartially on those whom we
care most about in this world. The
husband who has an ailing wife, and
who, although the doctor has rigorous
ly prescribed it, cannot afford to send
her South for the winter; the father
who cannot afford to crafty his sons
ambitions, lacking the wherewithal to
send him to college; the adoring
mother who cannot give her daughter
the pleasures natural to her youth and
position; the man who sees the wolf
approach very, very near the door
world to him-all these are up against
a proposition which somehow holds
no happiness, but only a very great
deal of pain.
Yet happiness can be cultivated.
The mind can be turned from dOleful
intrOspectiOn to a brighter and more
cheerful outlook. The counting up of
ones blessings and the persistent ig-
noring of the darker side of the pic
ture will induce a more cheerful frame
of mind.
For, after all, the world is a glorious
place, full of delightful surprises and
intensely interesting happenings. We
must not shut our eyes and ears to the
lighter side of life, for
The world is so full of such wonderful
things
That I'm sure we should all be as hap
Ply as kings.
The influence of mind over matter is
too we'll known to detail. Will power
can accomplish things little short of
miracles. The average human being
only needs to be aroused, to be taken
out of himself and Weakened to the Joy
and the glory Of life
And, after all, happiness is found in
the little things, in the trifles that too
many people overlook as immaterial.
They are not immaterial; upon the
contrary, they are very, very impor-
tant. And once we have awakened to
that most necessary viewpoint we will
find true happiness in the little trifes
which go to make up the sum-total of
the well-balanced life.

Bedtime Stories
For Little Folks
WHY DEER HAVE HORNS.

Once upon a time, millions and tril-
lions of years ago, the pretty deer we
see now in the parks with great
branching antlers had no horns at all.
They had soft, smooth heads then, but
were not near so attractive as they
are with the antlers springing out of
their graceful foreheads. And the way
it came about was this:
The gnomes of the White Mountains
were happy little people, ruled over by
their young Queen. Their meeting
place was a messy circle beneath the
shade of a young maple tree. Here
every week they met for their dance
which was sometimes by the light Of
the moon or the beams of the stars
overhead.
The Queen had for a riding horse &
beautiful deer named Fleet. Its ful
was as soft as down, and it was a!
gentle as a kitten, and it seemed t.
enjoy taking the gnomes on its back
Now, one day there came a dreadful
trouble to the gnomes. They had al
ways made their homes in the rock
in the mountains, and lived happily
but a wicked Curl came prowlin
about and took up his home right nea
their little caves.
Now, if there is anything on cart
that gnome hates, it is a Curl. An
a Curl hates a gnome worse than AM
thing else in the world.
So they came trooping down to tn
messy circle where the Queen wa
petting Fleet.
"Oh! Queen" they said-and thei
moaning sounded like the waves of
fountain-"a dreadful Curl is in on
village, and we cannot rest"
"But we must keep quiet and sc
what he will do said the Queen.
I'VE know what he will do" sobbe
