WAYS OF the Crocodile.

The crocodile differs from his cousin.
the alligator; in that the lower maxil-
larry, or jawbone, moves in the gator
whereas it is the crcOdile's upper jaw
that is movable The crocodile, more
over, has two sharp teeth that pro-
trude from the lower jaw through the
upper and movable one; his nose is
sharper, his teeth are longer, his scales
softer and not so thick. and his body
is slender and active. His eyesight
and hearing are both good. and he can
scent an enemy. if the wind favors, for
at least half mile. He can dive and
swim like fish. and on land he can
run at a good pace. He is cruel and
cunning, and it is not easy to capture
him.

War Upon Pain!

Pain is visitor to every home and
usually it comes quite unexpectedly. But you
are prepared for every emergency if you keep a
small bottle of Sloan's Liniment handy. It
is the greatest pain killer ever discovered.
Simply laid on the skin-no rubbing required
it drives the pain away. 1t is really wonderful.
Mervin Fl. Soister, Berkeley, Cal writes:
"Last Saturday, tramping around the Panama
Exposition with wet feet, came home with my
neck so stiff that couldn't turn. I applied
Sloan's Liniment freely and went to bed. To
my surprise, next morning the stiffness had
almost disappeared, four hours after the second
application was as good as new" March, 1915

We look at you with eager eyes,
But give you neither tears nor signs.
Though strange is the new face you

But what is kindness Buried deep
The answer, O new year, you keep.
You're here with secrets all untold.
Oh, what for us your heart must hold!
We dare not dream, we dare not
guess,
How much of gladness or distress,
How much of joy, how much OF pain,
low much of loss, how much of gain,
How much Of bloom, how much OF

What skies of blue, what skies Ger

low much will vanish, how much

But, o new year, you know what's
