Perhaps Mr.. Wells himself would
accept a substantial gratuity and
consent to stop his incendiary let

landlords. The effect of such utter

being arrested for speeding, who re-

The club of which l am a member is
a sporting club consisting of boys
who like outdoor sports. We have
an indoor baseball team which start
ed practice last Sunday morning. We
went to a public school ground and
started practice, when along came an
officer and told us to move on or he
would have US locked up. We moved
on to another lot some two blocks

from our club, and this also was a
school ground. This same officer
chased us from here, saying the same
words: Move on or I'll have you
locked up" Now, can you imagine
locking US up for INDUCING in an in
nOcent sport as indoor, and chasing
us off public school grounds which
our fathers and mothers help sup
port by paying taxes.

THE LORDS PRAYER.-It is my
belief that if our children were
taught the Lords prayer in school it
might be the means in after years of
keeping them from committing
many sin.
Our Lord said: "AIl things shall
pass away, but My word never" 1t
does not make any difference how
much as a people or individual we
say it is going to change or that
things are not so that is in bible, His
word still remains.
/ remember when l was a wee girl
attending the public school how we
were taught by dear teacher to bow
our heads and reverently repeat to-
gether the Lords prayer. am sure
that it cannot be possible that am
the only one out of that rOOmful Of
children that remembers or that re-
ceived any benefit or inspiration
from that prayer. l am past so years
old and l must say that prayer has
been a guide and help many times.
Forgive all our trespasses as we
forgive them that trespass against
u.s." How many times 1 have been
halted in an act Of revenge for real
or imaginary wrongs as that clause
from that oldest of prayers flashed
into my mind. And then, thine is

glory"

EXCESSIVE MEAT EATING

Most people who are troubled with
fatulency eat more meat than is good
for them. Flatulency is wind on the
stomach. Excessive meat eating or de-
fective nerve force is responsible in
most cases.
Cutting down the amount of meat in
your diet and taking course OF treat
ment with DR.. Williams Pink Pills to
strengthen the weak nerves that control
the digestive processes is well worth
trying if you have wind on the stomach,
sour risings in the throat, a feeling OF
weakness in the stomach and palpita-
ton OF the heart. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills are recommended for thin blood
and weak nerves, whatever the cause.
Send today to the DR.. Williams Medi-
cine Co., Schenectady, N. Y, for the
diet book "What to Eat and How to
Eat" 1t gives information regarding
the tonic treatment for many forms OF
stomach trouble. There cannot be
perfect digestion without sufficient
supply of red blood and there is moth
ing better than DR.. Williams Pink
Pills to enrich the blood and tone up
the stomach.
