SYRUP Of FIGS FOR
A CH|LD'S BOWELS
1t is cruel to force nauSeatinq,
harsh phySic into a
sick child.

Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the dose mother insisted
on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form Of
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt is well-found-
ed. Their tender little "insides" are
injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious California Syrup Of Figs" Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
Of mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
en- the stomach, and that teaspoonfuI
given today saves a sick child tomor-
row.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle
OF California Syrup of Figs" which
has full directions for babies, children
Of ali ages and for groEn-ups plainly
on each bottle. Adv.

BILIOUS, HEADACHY,
SICK "CASCARETS"
Gently cleanse your liver and
sluggish bowels while
you sleep.
Get q Decent box.

Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi-
ness, coated tongue, foul taste and foul
breath-always trace them to torpid
liver; delayed, fermenting food in the
bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
Poisonous matter clogged in the in
testines, instead of being cast out
Of the system is re-absorbed into the
blood. When this poison reaches the
delicate brain tissue it causes con-
gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick
ening headache.
Cascarets Immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undigested
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out all
the constipated waste matter and
poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sleep-a 10-cent box
from your druggist means your head
clear, stomach sweet and your liver
and bowels regular for months. Adv.

MARCH WEATHER FREAKIsH
Temperature During Month Ranged
From Below to 90 Above Zero
Was Windy, Too.

Topeka--March was an unusually
dry, windy month in all parts of Kan
sas and came nearly being a record
breaker on account of the great
amount of sunshine. according to the
reports of 125 stations of the weather
bureau In most of the central and
western counties the precipitation
has been below normal for nine
months in succession and the four
months just closed are, with one ex-
ception, the driest period of that
length in the meteorological history
Of the state
The month was a. succession of
warm and cool periods and great diff
ferences between day and night tenn
peratures. On the 4th, below zero
weather was general in the western
counties, while on The Goth high south
winds raised the temperature above
so degrees at many places.
The average precipitation-rain and
melted snow-over the eastern third
of the state was LIS inches: the mid
die third so inch, the western third
-35 inch, and for the entire state 90
inch, Or "A inch below normal. The
moisture received was entirely made
quate for present needs over fully
three-fourths of the state.
At Topeka and Wichita it was the
windiest month on record and it came
very nearly breaking the record at
Concordia. Dust storms occurred
with unusual frequency
Wheat was in a critical condition
when the month began and deterio-
ated steadily as the weather became
warmer and dTier. By the end of the
month it was apparent that a large
per cent of the crop had been killed
in the central and western counties.
where most of the states yield is ordi-
narily produced, and a great deal of
it was being plowed up or disked for
other crops. In the southeastern
counties, where more rain fell, wheat,
alfalfa and pastures made a fine
growth
The ground was loose and mellow
in all parts of the state and more
blowing was done than usual before
April l.
A large crop of oats was sown and
some was up. In the extreme south
eastern counties some corn and early
gardens were planted.

Old Looks !?
(BY DIR. l. 81. sMITH

Persons suffering from too much uric
acid in the system frequently look older
than they should. They age faster and
the appearance of gray hair or bald
head in early years is, indeed, often a
sign of uric acid. The face appears
lean and haggard, lines and wrinkles
appearing in young men or women.
The best way to combat this prema-
ture age and the obstruction to the
arteries and faulty circulation is of the
simplest: Drink cOpiOusly of pure water
between meals. This will not make
you fat, as it is only the water taken
with the meals that fattens. Obtain at
any drug store package of AnurIc,
double strength, which is to be taken
before meals, in order to expeI the uric
acid from the system. The painful eff
fects of backache, lumbago,- rheuma-
tism, govt, due to uric acid in the blood
should quickly disappear after treat

Hay in Church.

A curious custom has been OBJ
served from time immemorial at Old
Weston, HuntingdonShire, in England.
The church there is dedicated to st.
Swithin, and on the Sunday most near
~ approaching st. Swithin's day the
edifice is strewn with new-mown hay.
The tradition is that an old lady
beque0thed a field for charitable pur-
poses, on condition that the tenant
provide the hay, to lessen the annoy
ance caused by the squeaking of the
new shoes worn by the villagers on
Feast Sunday. There are other ex-
planatiOns-one that it is an Offering
Of the first fruits of the hay harvest
and another that it is a survival of
the customs of strewing the church
(when the floor was only beaten
earth) with rushes.
