RED BLOOD MAKES
BEST COMPLEXIONS.
Wholesome Complexion the Pride and
Glory of Healthy Men and
Women.
Pepto-Mangan Makes Red Cheeks.
Builds Up Tired Bodies - Helps
Change Pale Compilations to Bloom
of Health.

The healthy, attractive woman -
and man too-with a wholesome com
ion is the envy of those who feel that,
for them, such attractiveness is i'm
possible.
And yet health and attractiveness
are much matter of good, red blood
nd unless a man or woman is af-
flicted with some deep-seated or Sc
rious ailment, vigorous health, and
personal charm are within easy
reach.
Pepto-Mangan is responsible for
the present health and happiness of
thousands who formerly were thin,
pale, languid and easily exhausted.
Pepto-Mangan helped place these
folks IN the full blooded, energetic,
vigorous class-and it probably can do
the same for you.
Pepto-Mangan contains the ele-
ments that make rich, healthy blood.
And as a result of the increased sup
ply of red blood that Pepto-Mangan
creates, the entire system attains the
vigor that belongs to every man and
woman.
Pepto-Mangan Is prepared in two
forms, liquid and tablets. They are
exactly alike in medicinal value.
Ask your druggist for Guides"
when ordering Pepto-Mangan. Look
for the name "Gude's' on the pack
age.

WASN'T ASKING FOR MUCH
All Buffalo Wife Wanted Of the Hus-
band was Just lone of Those
Regional Banks"

Stevenson, we believe it waS-our
memory isn't us good as it was before
the income tax passed-t-ied to 10.
cate the greatest happiness in
married life, remarks writer in Buff
falO News. He said the greatest
need of joy comes from recount
ing tales of courtship, didn't he? Or
is the pinnacle of happiness found in
social contact with others, whereby
husband and wife are Spurred by the
law of contrast to love one another
more dearly? We forget which was
his conclusion.
'Tennyrae, both are wrong and un-
worthy of so great master of litera-
ture. Our notion, you may say, is I'M
important, and very probably you
speak wi..lin the law when you say
so. Bu' TO us the greatest joy comes
in that mystic hour beside the eve
ming lamp when the gray moss hangs
low from the nuptial tree, casting
ShadOwy fancies about the heart Of the
home. To sing 70 her, to write odes
70 her. to recount the days work to
her-all are pleasant occupations.
To read to her, though, is the very
height Of evening enjoyment: she is
so attentive, hangs so interestedly
upon every word, and then her re-
freshing woman's views on what has
been read! For example, last night,
when he read two columns of compre-
hensive matter on the currency inno-
vation, after which she yawned, wound
up the clock and said:
'T wish you would stop tomorrow
and get one of those regional banks
and bring 1t home. have one Of the
A. NJ. & A. banks and dime bank,
too. But I think one of those regional
banks would be so much more desir-
able for larger money"

CHINA NOT LAND OF HUSTLE
Traveller in That Country Must Possess
a Generous Amount Of Patience
and Tact. r.

Sooner or later, writes E. H. Wilson
{ In "a Naturalist in Western China"
. the traveller in China must dispense
with the comforts and luxuries Of
modern occidental methods of travel
and adapt himself to those more primi-
tive and decidedly less comfortable Of
the oriental.
In the regions with which we have
{, to deal there is nothing in the nature
Of wheeled vehicular traffic save only
the rude wheelbarrQws in use on the
Chengtu plain. There are no mule
caravans, and scarcely riding pony
to De found. For overland travel there
Is the native sedan-chair and ones own
legs; for river travel the native boat.
Patience, tact and abundance Of
time are necessary and the would-be
traveller lacking any of these essentials
should seek lands where less primitive
methods Obtain. Endowed with the vir-
tues mentioned, and having unlimited
time at his disposal, he may travel
anywhere and everywhere in China in
safety, with considerable pleasure and
abundant profit in knowledge. With
,her Industrious toiling millions, her old,
old civilization, her enormous natural
wealth and wondrous scenery, China
alternately charms and fascinates, irri-
%ates and plunges into despair, all who
Sojourn long within her borders.

Elephants Picnic.

An act not down on the program
was given without charge the other
day in the old seaport town of Marble
head, Mass, when four elephants of a
small circus, named with fine allied
patriotism General Foch, General Per-
shing, General Haig and Princess Pat,
jumped a stone wall, escaped the cir
Gus and took to the woods. The per-
sonnel Of the circus, acrobats, riders,
clowns and canvasmen, followed, and
so did many of the townspeople and
half a dozen policemen, but the ele-
plants made the woods first, and there
they spent the day with "a large and
appreciative audience" watching on
the outskirts. Peanuts and bananas,
usually temptation to elephants,
Gaaled to entice them from their New
England jungle; but as twilight fell,
and habit suggested feeding time, the
dig beasts came peacefully out of the
woods and allowed the trainer and his
assistants to lead them back to the
circus grounds. And all Marblehead
went home to belated suppers.

NEVER SAW THE SUWAAEE
Writer of Popular Song Used Name
Because Rhythmic Sound of 1t
Appealed to Him.

The song "Old FokS at Home"
made the name Of ''Swanee River IA
NOUS, but few people, except those OF
Florida and Georgia, connect the
aSwanee of the song with the Suwanee
that flows from the southern swampS
enf Georgia down through the wood
Gsnds of Florida to empty into the Gulf
of Mexico.
"Way down upon the Swanee river
suggests vaguely the South of the ante
bellum days with its cotton plantations,
its mansions and negro cabins. None
of these things are found along the Su-
vance. Yet FloridanS claim that the
song was written in honor of their for
est stream, and boatmen even point
out a tree under which Stephen Fos-
ter is supposed to have penned the
memorable lines. Reports less pic
tureSque, but more generally accepted,
say that Foster never saw Suwanee
river, but that he used the name be-
cause of the rhythmic sound, dropping
the 'u" to perfect the meter.
While the Suwanee river may not
be what its name suggests to most OF
us, it is a beautiful stream, flowing
through a semi-tropical country where
3iye-Oaks and expresses are mirrored
sn dts clear depths. Heavy forests of
xedar also grow in its valley, but these
have been reduced in recent years, as
the wood is in great demand for pen
Gil making.
The Suwanee figured largely In
early American history, for it was
favorite haunt of tie Indians, and
many battles with the red men were
fought In its valleys.
The name Suwanee has an Indian
sound, but it is said to be a corrup-
zion of San Juan-a name given the
river by early Spanish explorers.

SMOKING TOBACCO
FACTS FROM The

The Use Of FIavorings Deter
mines Difference In Brands

The Encyclopedia Britannica says
about the manufacture of smoking to-
bacco: on the Continent and in
America, certain sauces are employed
:. the use of the sauces is to improve
the favour and burning qualities of the

enjoyment depends as much upon the
favoring used as upon the tobacco.
Your nose is a sure guide in the mat

with several tobacco brands: pour some
tobacco into your palm, rub briskly,
and smell. You will notice distinct
difference in the fragrance of every
brand. The tobacco that smells best to
you will smoke best in your pipe, you
can rest assured. . .
