IS CHILD CROSS,
FEvER|SH, SICK
Look, Mother! If tongue is
coated, give California
Syrup of Figs"

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 one becomes
cross, half-sick, feverish, don't eat,
sleep or act naturally, breath is bad,
system full of cold, has sore throat,
stomach-ache or diarrhea. Listen.
Mother See if tongue is coated, then
give a 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 it new
er fails to act on the stomach, liver
and bowels.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle
of California Syrup of Figs" which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups plainly
printed on the bottle. Adv.

when l now try to render them into
words l am to be held free from
Offense. We are all more or less
bound to listen to the controversy in
regard to our COUntry's sO-far mag

favorable outcome we will perhaps
always remain in doubt.
In some daily papers we have the
pleasure to count the number Of men
who are willing to sacrifice them
selves, regardless Of their station in
life But when 1t comes to women,
they are always beautifully pictured
as loyal, faithful, with the gratifca-
ton of calling themselves full of ten
derness and love for their country.
In the present peace time they are
willing to sacrifice themselves to the
army, navy, in any hardship
to my mind, is supreme love of coun-
try.
For what can be compared with
the highest, purest impulse a woman
can feeI-the glowing pride in self
surrender and the sweet, delightful
privilege Of giving when She loves?
In other words, and from a more ex-
tended point of view, it gives a won
derful puzzle to us men. In case of
war they think they will be willing
to Outclass men in every instance.
But in order to advertise themselves
now they are satisfied with the oc-

They are training themselves to

 TO ENROLL STATE IN
 F0OD PLEDGE DRIVE

Renewed energy has been reported from many sections of the state on re- ceipt of information that the great food pledge card drive will be continued this week, and that the corps of patriotic workers is to be kept in organiza ton for even greater patriotic work in the future, State Manager Warren Nc Arthur has wired his county manager to keep on the job till every household has been visited and checked.
 Thus far, with about 2S,000 cards re- ported to the Phoenix office, Arizona is believed to have done very well indeed, though her record of 70 per cent of signed cards is eXcelled by California With this weeks work checked up there is hope that the Sun Kissed State will lead the nation in this dem onstration of patriotism.
 It is urged that everyone who hasn't signed should visit the food adminis- tration offices on North Central avenue, opposite the Adams hotel, or the office of County Chairman J. c. Norton, POI Fleming block. The county leaders have telephoned fairly well, but their cards should be sent to Dr. Norton at once. The county thus far has report ed about $500 cards
 Food Administrator Riordan is not overlooking any opportunities for checking up the spirit of the populace by noting the replies on a number of the cards submitted Several that were of reasonable character were submit ted to the proper authorities as soon as seen.

Madge Kennedy created the role in the original speaking yer sion of this delightful farce and has brought to the screen presentation all the charm and vivacity which charac- terized her splendid rendition when launched on the Legitimate" stage The same magnificent style for set tings that enveloped the first Goldwyn picture. Polly of the Circus is pres ent in this production and the same eff feet of masterful direction. is always evident.
 Margaret Mayo who wrote Baby Mine" as well as many other stage suc- cesses is a member of the GoldWyn forces and her assistance is of maternal value to the directors responsible for her plays, for she was present all dur ing the making of the film and her suggestions are carefully followed to the end that the finished feature has the advantage of being supervised by the author of the story. The American War Weekly which is being shown Tn connection with Baby Mine is most interesting reel depicting scenes in America incident to her part in the great world war.

MRS. MERRILL AN
 EXQUISITE SINGER

One of the most interesting musical events of the year was the recital by Mrs. Doane Merrill at the Woman'S club last evening when the newcomer won a warm place for herself in the hearts of local muSic lovers. The event, given under the auspices of the Musicians club for the benefit of St. Luke's Home, attracted a large gath ering, a representative audience quick to appreciate the best in music.
 Mrs. Merrill was assisted by Dwight Deity, 'cellist, a favorite ehre and one who gained new laurels last night. The entertainment was eagerly anticipated and no one was disappointed in the af- fair.
 Mrs. Merrilrs beautiful soprano voice rang clear and faultless from the soft est, persuasive low notes to her won- derfuliy brilliant high C which she held with marvellous ease. In. the difficult Lieti Signor, the exquisite rendition of the coloratura passages proved her to be mistress of vocal technique, while her sustained tones in The Crying of the Water" showed exceptional strength and resonance in voice of lyric character.
 Mrs. Merrill has a most pleasing stage presence and charm in her singing that entirely captivated and held her audience through the highly classic, yet splendidly balanced and charmingly varied program.
 Dwight Deity, always supremely eloquent in his art, played with deli cacy and style most befitting the oc- casion, always playing with a sense of reaching the hearts of his listeners, while Mrs. w. E. Deity proved herself a most brilliant accompanist, rendering the accompaniments in the difficult Russian numbers with an understand ing and mastery,
