SAVE YOURSELF FROM
INFLUENZA

If you are "run down" or out OF con-
dition, if sluggish bowels have allowed
poisonous impurities to accumulate in
your system you are certain to suffer Sc
verely with the grip. DIR. True's Elixir,
the famous household remedy of 81
years reputation, will ward off the grip
entirely or make an attack light and
easily thrown off. Whyf Because DIR.
True's Elixir is vegetable tonic that
puts the system in good condition, pre-
vents and relieves constipation, stimu-
lates the appetite and strengthens the
digestive powers. It can do no harm
because it contains no mineral drugs. All
purely vegetable. A tonic-not stimu-
liant No reaction. Ask your druggist
for it, or write DR.. J. f. True & Co.,

believed her power absolute over the
body of the child, and she was practising
her "way" Of teaching religion.
There never have been and never will
be enacted laws which will make hard
taskmasters and heartless men and
women kind; but the evil they do may
be minimized if it is made incumbent
on every citizen to report any case of
cruelty or neglect and if failure so to
do makes him, or her, an accessory to
the crime.
There is need for the appointment Of
a commission similar to the one ap-
pointed by the Governor of Minnesota
for the purpose of finding a way to
secure better protection for defective,
illegitimate, dependent, neglected and
delinquent children; to minimize offences
and change punitive laws regarding
them when the offender is child
either in gears or intellect; to obtain
better sanitation and better and more
food, that the link between body and
soul may be strengthened; to secure
more abundant supply of fresh air and

Teaching Christianity
With Oaths and Blows

If the control of the welfare Of chill
dren is vested in certain body this fact
will constitute the greatest protection
to the little people. How else is case
like the following to be reached?
Every morning tenants in an old
rookery heard the seance between a
woman and an adopted child of six. The
woman's voice rumbled, then broke out
into shrill oaths, the sound Of blows and
a child's screams following. Finally a
social service worker who heard OF it
pushed open the door one morning and
found the woman holding a copy of the
Lords Prayer in one hand and long
switch in the other. On her knees be-
side her was the little girl The woman
would read a line of the prayer, mis-
pronouncing such lengthy words as
"transgression" and "hallowed" and
"trespasses (and if she had been made
to write a prayer for her own forgive
ness she would have started out by
spelling God with little "g"). But, ac-
cording to her information, the woman
was teaching the little girl her prayers.
She punctuated them with a volley Of
oaths and many blows. but she sincerely

to plead for the boy and call attention
to the fact it was the hottest July day
on record, and that possibly children,
even more than grown-ups, felt the aw-
full temperature.
She was told to mind her own affairs,
and He's my child and I can beat him
ter death if l wanter."
1t was neither the blow alone, nor
the threats, nor the dirt, nor the neg
lected stupidity of the child which called
for outside interference in that mothers
prerogative. But there was enough in
the aggregate to create the presumption
that the boy was sadly in need of some
sort of aid. The woman did not look
especially unkind. She simply did not
know any better. If the understanding
had been forced upon her that her son,
as future citizen, was ward of the
state and that his bodily and mental
welfare was the business of the state,
she would probably have treated him
better; for these persons with the might
lily prevalent idea that Hes my child
and I can beat him ter death if want

strong arm of the law as it relates to
their own safety.

ow Minnesota Have Revised Children

too little body, and attention was given
instead to the preparation Of bills for
presentation to the Legislature. to meet
the needs.
The first move was to give to the
state prime authority over her minors
by vesting in the already organized
State Board of Control full authority
for the protection of all defective, IL
legitimate, dependent, neglected and de-
linquent children, to cooperate to this
end with juvenile courts and all repu-
table childhelping and child placing
agencies of a public or private char
matters involving the interests Of such
children where adequate provision there
for has not already been made"
In the above paragraph lies the great
power to handle intelligently, with good
result, the problems of protection for
those who need it most in the State of
Minnesota.
Mrs. Virginia Blythe, the very COM
petent woman lawyer of Minneapolis,
says Of the work of the Board Of Con-
troll, since power was delegated to that
body to act in the interest of the chill
dren of the state: "To effectuate the
purpose Of the laws children's bureau
has been created by the Board of Con-
troll which, considering it's short life
since January of this year-has func-
toned most satisfactorily; but as might
be expected much of the time so far
has been consumed in organization. AL
though the code falls far short of being
ideal and fails to cover the entire
ground, we believe it means for Min
nesota great progress in the care Of
her children, and we hope to increase
its power by adding several new laws
at the coming session Of the Legisla-
ture."
Mrs. Blythe explains: "For conven-
ience the laws of the state touching
the lives and welfare Of children from
the social point of view rather than in
purely legal or business ways have been
colated, and this compilation is popu-
larly known as our 'children's code.
Perhaps one of the greatest
benefits derived is the public interest
aroused and stimulated in child welfare
from the press publicity given the work

TWO years ago Minnesota took the

men the Governor appointed a COM
'aisslon to "revise and codify the laws

through subsequent sessions of the

many laws relevant to child welfare.
1t seems not enough for women, in
