Children love this ''fruit laxative"
and nothing else cleanses the tender
stomach, liver and bowels so nicely.
A child simply will not stop playing
to empty the bowels, and the result IS
they become tightly clogged with
waste, liver gets sluggish, stomach
sours, then your little enc becomes
cross, half-sick, feverish, don't eat,
sleep or act naturally, breath is bad,
system full of cold, has sore throat,
stonach-ache or diarrhea. Listen,
Mother! See if tongue is coated, then
give teaspoonful Of California
Syrup of Figs and in few hours all
the constipated waste, sour bile and
undigested food passes out Of the sys-
tenn, and you have a well child again.
Millions of mothers give California
Syrup of Figs because it is perfectly
harmless children love it, and 1t new

TAKES OFF DANDRUFF
HAIR STOPS FALLING
Girls! Try Thisa Makes Hair Thick.
Glossy, Fluffy, Beautiful-No
More itching Scalp.

Within ten minutes after an appll-
cation of Danderine you cannot find
single trace Of dandruff or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after
few weeks use, when you see new
hair, fine and downy at frst-yes-but
really new growing all over the
scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately dou-
bles the beauty Of your hair. No diff
ference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time The effect is amaz-
ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and
wavy, and have an appearance OF
abundance; an Incompatible luster,
softness and luxuriance.
Get a % cent bottle Of Knowlton's
Danderine from any store, and prove
that your hair is as pretty and soft
as any-that it has been neglected or
injured by careless treatment-that's
all-you surely can have beautiful hair
and lots of it if you will just try a lit
tie Danderine. Adv.

below the maximum amount you have
to spend. You will have many oppor-
tunities, while the building is in proc
ess of construction or after it has
been completed, to use whatever sur
plus there may be and, if it is not used
in building it may be used for other
purposes.
Building home, adding something
of use to the tangible assets of the ma
ton, doing your part to create real
value, are some of the reasons why
glow Of satisfaction pervades 1.-The per-
son or the group that work out such
an enterprise.
1t is an undertaking that is so won
derfully worthwhile, so fraught with
good results to SO many people that
this instinct-and it is an instinct
should be given every encouragement.
If you feel the idea stirring in your
breast give it all possible opportunity
to grow.
What kind Of a home to build and Of
what to build it are among the next
questions that arise FOR settlement.
Materials that satisfy the preference
Of the builder should be used. Do
not be swayed too greatly by the con-
1icting claims to merits put forth by
rival manufacturers. Much Of the in
formation they give is based Oh fact.

vHEhv rheumatism Comes
With Cold Weather |!
BY VALENTINE MOTT PIERCE, N. D.

is that people do not drink as much
water in cold weather as in summer,
which helps to flush the kidneys. Again,
they eat more meat in cold weather, and
some people are SO susceptible that they
soon develop rheumatism after eating
meat.
At all such times persons should drink
copiously of hot water, say, pint
morning and night, and take Anuric
three or four times day. This An
uric comes in tablet form and can be
had at almost any drug store. 1t dis
solves the uric acid in the system
and carries it outward. I would advise
everyone to take Anuric occasionally,
and continue for three or four weeks,
and in that way avoid rheumatism, govt
and many OF the painful disorders due
to uric aci0s -eAly.

a ciose connection exists between
khese two cold weather and rheu-
matism. Prof. Alex. Haig, of London,
has the most followers in the medical
profession in the belief that the pres
ence in the system of uric acid, or its
salts in excess, is the real causesof rheu-
matisln. Everyone has recognized the
difference in the appearance OF their
water as soon as it gets cold I; there is
often copious sediment of brickdust.
Several causes may lead up to an
accumulation of uric acid in the system,
which, in turn, causes rheumatism or
gout, or creaky joints, or swollen fingers,
or painful joints. : For one reason the
skin does not throw off the uric acid, by
profuse sweating, as in the hot weather,
and the Kidneys are unable TO take care
Of the double burden. Another reason

in every way and would contain every
element of value that make for peace
of mind, comfort and security for the
money invested.
The perspective view does not dis
close the height Of the roof over the
one-story section. Possibly there is
sufficient headroom to give an attic
for storage purposes, entrance to be
secured through the front bedroom on
that side. The cost of a door would
be inconsiderable and storage room
usually is at premium in all houses.

A part Of the argument in each ease is
unadulterated rhetoric.
Now for type of a modern home,
one that has beauty, convenience and
real value to recommend it for COZ

LISTEN TO THE BLACKSMITH
Ayers That His Equine Friends Are
as Proud of New Shoes as
Little Boys.

We happened to hold converse with
horseshoer the other day. He is a
veteran who can remember the day
when he not only had to forge his
own shoes, but even the nails that
tackled them on. He says that horses
are like little boys. Some of them are
intensely proud of new pair Of shoes,
He mentioned one mare that tries to
turn in at the shop door every time
she passes. She is so fond of the
feel of new shoes that she fairly

around for an hour and wait for me to

right, would give them a few taps

that mares are prouder than geldings
Of new pair of shoes. He attributes
this to natural feminine good sense,
rather than vanity. We don't vouch
for the truth of his anecdotes, but we
will say that it is hard to ind a more
interesting man than this blacksmith

good story-teller, and we imagine that
the rhythmic ring of hammer on iron

Lady Arabella Stuart played no very prominent part amid the public char acters of her time, but her history was Succession of romantic incidents and disaster. She was the daughter
 being in line of succession to the of Charles Stuart, Earl of Lennox and,
 throne, was the object of jealous care by Queen Elizabeth, who attempted
 to marry her off to some European prince, some of whom believed that she would succeed to the throne. Sir Walter, Raleigh is even said to have taken part in a. feeple.insurrection to place her there. When she was about thirty-threeS years old, in 1909, she
 married William Seymour, son of Lord Beauchamp. The marriage had. been secret and when Elizabeth heard of it she had Seymour, committed to the Tower while Arabella was detained as a prisoner in the house of Sir Thomas Parry. They managed to correspond, however, and 1t was decided to re- move Arabella to a greater distance. While travelling she managed to escape to an inn. disguise herself as a man and took ship: for France. Her vessel was intercepted just as 1t was about to enter Calais. Meanwhile her lover, who knew of the. project to escape, also made his way out of the Tower and to France, but never again saw the object of his affection Ara bella was brought back to England and placed in the Tower, where she remained until her death in 1615

John Purroy Mitchell

John Purroy Mitchell, when he was elected mayor of the city of New ork, was almost young enough to be called the Boy Mayor At an age when other young men have lust about started climbing the ladder of success, Mitchell was already high up on the ladder. He was then thirty four years old. He is today celebrat- ing his thirty-eighth birthday, hay ing been born at Fordham, N. Y., on July 1S. 1879. Hes entered public life in 1906 as Corporation Counsel of the City of New. York, and at once became known as an uncompromising foe of Tammany Hall. Mitchell, just loves a fight, equality he has inner ited from his grandfather, John Mitchell, the Irish patriot, who was banished to Australia. MitchePs name firstY came prmine1ftIy before the public when in 1907 he conducted an into the affairs of cer- tain city officials under Mayor McClel- Ian! Official heads just flew right and left when Mitchell had finished his probe. Tn,s,the- fall of %1909 the young fighter was nominated for the office of President of the Board of Aldermen on a Fusion ticket opposed to Tammany Hall. The head of the ticket was defeated, but Mitchell went into office When Mayor Gaynor was assassinated Mir. Mitchell was acting mayor of the city for several weeks. He seemed to have acquired a taste for the job during that time and the citizens of New York. after looking him over thoroughly decided that he would, be just the right kind of a man to have for a mayer. So when 1t came time to make nominations in 1913 John Purroy Mitchell was so hon. ored. President Wilson had named
 him Collector Of the Port of New
 York, big job, but he resigned to accept the nomination Election time in New York city is coming around in several months, and-well, if yo,, go around asking people what they think. they will tell you .sIt looks like Mitchell"
