4 Hint to Mothers
of Growing Children.
A Mild Laxative at Regular Intervals
Will Prevent Constipation.

A vital point upon which all
schools of medicine seem to agree is
that normal regularity Of the bowels
is an essential to good health. The
importance of this is impressed par
ticularly upon mothers of growing
children.
A very valuable remedy that
should be kept in every home for
use as occasion arises is DIR Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin, a compound Of
simple laxative herbs that has been
prescribed by DR. w B Caldwell, Of
Monticello, Ill, for more than twen-
ty-fve years, and can now be OBJ
tained in any well stocked drug
store for fifty cents a bottle.
In a recent letter to DR. Caldwell,
Mrs H e Turner, S44 Main st, Buf-
falo, N Y, says, Il bought bottle
of DR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin for
my baby, Roland Lee Turner, and

WHY MRS. AsToR DID TT.

Considerable comment and wonder have been created by Mrs. Astor re- linquishing her interest in $5,o00,o0o to marry There should be no won der at all. In marrying out of the four hundred she is like a butterfly releasing itself from a cocoon. She is no longer one of the "set,' and not obliged to exist upon the dry husksz- she goes into a live world, famong her old friends, who are the best people in the city, and who have nothing to lose by comparison with the four hun dred, whose shining light few years ago was Ward McAl1ister. He was consulted at all their entertainments and was the right-hand man of Mrs. ParAn Stevens and the late Mrs. As tor, who ruled the "sets" which was in full feather during the sos. Mrs. Stevens was the most intelligent of the leaders, and it was once published of her that "she spoke several Ian guages fiuently, including the pro fane." Another shining light was Harry Lehr, who was wine agent until he married out of trade and went into society. This set refused to receive Mrs. Astor's family and in tinaate friends, who were all good people and living in a world to which she is returning.-Brool41yn Eagle.

THE NEWSPAPER
 AS A DIRECTORY

It has become the fixed habit with many people to look through the newspaper advertisements before start ing out to buy things It is a great time saver, and saves both disappoint- ment and embarrassment.
 The shopper feels that she saves going through a number of stores if she can learn in advance from the newspapers where she can find what she wants.
 The tendency becomes more marked as customers get a personal acquaint- ance with the store people. Often they hate to enter a store where are known, as they fee4 they would be expected to buy something, whether they find what they want or not
 If they can find in advance what stores are making special offers along the line of their desires, they go there first so as to avoid fruitless calls and failure to buy- In that way, places that do not advertise are seldom bothered with
