An Effective Laxative
 For Growing Children
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin Highly Recommended as
 a Family Remedy.

In children the slightest irregularity of the bowels has a tendency to dis turb the entire digestive system, and unless promptly remedied invites seri- ous illness. The experienced mother knows that by training her children to regularity in this respect, and when occasion arises administering a mild laxative, she will have little need for the doctors services
 Mrs. Leo Weigand, 3251 Central Ave-, N. S., Pittsburg, Pa, whose two boys, Frank and Joseph, are shown in the illustration, writes that she has found pr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin a most effective laxative, not. only for the children but also for herself, and that she will always keep it in the house to use when needed. pr. Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin is @ combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that acts easily and naturally, with out gripping or other pain or discom- fort It is pleasant to the taste so that children like it, and is equally effec- tive on the strongest constitution.

High Prices,

You have no doubt heard a great deal of the advance in price and the scarcity of goods-which is all true. You will find that this does not only apply to the clothing business, but to all lines.
 A. Katten & Son, Hartford One Price Clothing Co.,, 114-116 Asylum St., Hartford, have been anticipating these conditions for the past six months, and have been fortunate in being one of the first houses in their line to make their Fall purchases; anticipat- ing as nearly as possible their wants for the entire season-not only for their own protection but in order that their customers should get the benefit of the early price at which they bought their goods.
 Were they to duplicate any of the goods at present prices, they would be compelled to get from $2.0O to $25.00 a garm ment more than the prices now marked, as the entire line is priced on the basis of the early pur- chases.
 We can assure you that there is no house who appreciates your valued business more than they do, and you can feel certain that you will be prop erly cared for this season, notwith standing the conditions above stated. -advt.

Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin can be obtained at any drug store for fifty cents, and should have a place in every home.

word is received from Meriden as to
 commence. Realizing that this oc- casion will be an important factor in 1 encouraging the Scout movement in Meriden, the leaders of the organiza-
 ton in that city are straining every
 effort to make this years meet more , impressive than any of it's kind that has ever been held in this state. The meet has been chosen as an oppor- tunlty for launching a financial cam pa1gn which will enable Meriden to have a salaried Scout executive who will devote his entire time to the de- velopment of the work there. The
 program of the meet is in the hands
 of the scout masters and will follow
 exactly the schedule to be used in the
 local event tomorrow
 An interesting event in the doings
 of Troop four during the past week

 camped out over two nights in a
 barn, the exact whereabouts of which
 
 ccmmissary department under the di- rection of Albert Heineck handled the details .of providing the troop with sustenance in commendable fashion, and made it possible for the majority of the boys to spend all their time in practicing for the approaching meet One incident which provided amuse- ment, though causing hardship, was the disappearance of a bag of ginger snaps, a bag of salt and some corn. The burden of blame for this theft was cruelty placed upon a congenial COW who inhabited the temporary headquarters of the troop Assistant Scout Master Burns has announced special meeting of the troop to be held at 7:15 this evening for the pur- pose of putting on the finishing touches in the preparation for to- contests. This troop also reports the installment Of a very fine new bulletin board.
 Ten members of Troop 8, including Scout Master Rogers and Assistant Scout Master Hawkins, went for an all day hike last Sunday. The boys l cC oked dinner at the top of Pinnacle | m ountain and afterwards explored the ! depths of Bill Warren's den. Several l Scouts succeeded in passing some of the tests required for the second class 1 degree.

 cay night at the Chamber of Com

Then we have our religious papers
that are exceedingly valuable to US.
BAD LITERATURE.
1t is hardly necessary to speak of
this class of literature to this audience.
There are many bad books but we let
them alone. And yet our children do
sometimes find them. We cannot be
too careful in this direction.
Literature and how to use it! This
is agreat theme, worthy of the eminent
men and women who have made a
study of it for lifetime.
In addition to what have already
said make the following suggestions
l. Always keep notebook for
reference notes when you read These
notebooks are valuable. You will thus
be able to keep within touch what will
be of value to you.
2. Remember TO read choice books
good thoughts that you wish to retain,
or memorize, either copy them in your
notebook, or if the book is your own,
place in the notebook the place and
paragraph where it may be found.
3 If you are reading simply for
entertainment, still cling to your note
book. The book may have a choice
thought to copy.
q. Always give the authors name
to every quotation if you can. as it
may be valuable for you to know, if
you ever quote it, who the author is.
1t was wise man who years ago said
to those who came to him to learn
wisdom. "Read. and you will know !"
The right kind of reading and the right
way of reading will make one wise.
