Delicious "Fruft Laxative" can't harm
tender little Stomach, liver
and bowels.

Look at the tongue, mother! If
coated, your little ones stomach, liver
and bowels need cleansing at once.
When peevish, cross, listless, doesn't
sleep, eat or act naturally, or is fever
ish, stomach sour, breath bad; has
sore throat, diarrhea, full of cold, give
a t~easpoonful of California Syrup Of
Figs" and in a few hours all the foul,
and sour bile gently moves out of its
little bowels without gripping, and you
have a we'll, playful child again. Ask
your druggist for a 59-cent bottle of
California Syrup of Figs" which con-
tains full directions for babies, chill
dren of all ages and for grown-ups.

YES! LIFT A CORN
OFF WITHOUT PAIN!
Cincinnati authority tells how to dry
10 a corn or callus SO it lifts
off with fingers.

Ycu corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because a few
droaz Of freezone applied directly on a
t,naar. aching corn or ~callus, stops sore
ms 1t once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens so it can be
lifted out, root and all, without pain.
\ small bottle of freezone cost very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft
corn on callus. This should be tried,
IS Il j. inexpensive and is said not to

Roots Must Have Room.

The yield of cotton is dependent
upon the number of flowers we are
able to induce the plant to form, and
root space is necessary to Towering.
The cotton plants normal roofing may
occupy two square yards of earth,
which is several times more than given
it in practice, and the yield may often
be reduced by this fact as the roots
must interlaD.

SAYS M JUICE
WILL REMOVE FRECKLES
Girls! Make this cheap beauty lotion
to clear and whiten your skin.

Squeeze the juice of two lemons into
orchard white, shake well, and you have
a quarter pint of the best freckle and
tan lotion, and complexion beautiier, at
very, very small cost.
Your grocer has the lemons and any
drug store or toilet counter will supply
three ounces of orchard white for q few
cents. Massage this sweetly fragrant
lotion int the face, neck, arms and
hands each day and see how freckles and
biemiShes disappear and how clear, soft
and white the skin becomes. Yes! It
is harmless.

FICTION MORE vIRILE TODAY.

The literary editor Of the New
York Times thinks he discovers a
new complexion in the novels OF to-
day. He says they are different in
theme, different in atmosphere, from
those that were written before the
war. and adds: "The morbid, the
story that hangs on some involved
psychological theory-seems to have
been done away with. Novelists to-
day are furnishing us with books that
have an absorbing plot interest, or
that are based on some striking
theme in history, or that command
attention by their realistic interpre'
tation of life and its twentieth CEN
tury problems. In other words, our
fiction is becoming more virile, more
alive to the demand of the reader for
a book that will lift him up into a
world Of the imagination that is at
once entertaining and filled with ro-
bust realities"

ONLY RESULTED IN TROUBLE
Patriotic BelIboy Invested in Pair Of
4 High Heels But They Didn't Fool
Recruiting Officer.

One Of the bellhops at the Wal
dorf-Astoria hotel in New York has
one old-fashioned trait-he runs
when he delivers a message. Recent
ly he was delivering one when he lost
his balance, slipped on a rug and fell
under a writing table. There was
crash, and crashes are unpopular in
the Waldorf. After the boy had been
remoyede from everything that coy
cred or impeded him, he was led for
several yards to one side by the head
porter, who wished to know as brief
ly Is possible what was the big idea
The bellhop explained that he had
lost his balance while operating with
great speed. "Well, no wonder" said
the porter, "look at the heels you've
on; they're four inches high and you
are slanting forward. You can
hardly stand up now. What do You
wear heels like that for, anyway
CAV, they're coming off tomorrow
answered the boy. 81 had 'em put
on yesterday and went over to the
Seyenty-frst armory to enlist. They
didn't do any good either. The ser
geant told me was a good kid, but
a terrible runt."
