The Washington herald., 1919-10-30

One day Uncle Wiggily walked to
school with Billie Bushytail and Billie
gathered a pawful of dried bean pods
which ratified about like peas in a tin
box. Soon the squirrel boy and Uncle
Wiggily were at the hollow stump
school.
But no sooner were they there, than
they knew something had happened.
There was the loudest. most sorrowful
and crying sound they had ever heard.
My goodness me. sakes alive and
some sugar cookies, but what's the
matter?" asked Uncle WiSgily Of the
lady mouse teacher, who was holding
her paws up in the air. Has the bad
Pipsiewah, or the worse Skeezicks,
taken, any of the children"
"Oh, no." answered the lady mouse.
But Squicky-SQuawky. the little baby
sister Of Squeaky-Eeekie. the cousin
mouse. has come to school. Its her
first day and
Il see" cried Uncle Wiggily with a
jolly laugh, as he tWinkled his pink
nose. ''SQuicky- -Squawky is a baby
yet. and she is frightened on her first
day in school"
YES" answered the lady mouse.
"she is. and have played all the kim
dergarten tricks know. but still I
can't make her stop crying"
''Ha! Perhaps / can," said Uncle
Wisgily. billie, let me have one or
two Of your rattily bean pods"
The squirrel boy handed them over.
With these pods Uncle Wiggily went
to where Squicky-Squawky, the baby
mousse was sitting in her little kinder
garten chair.
Look. squicky!" said the rabbit
gentleman. Here is a nice rattle box
for you. See. 1t rattles just like the
one you had home before you came to
school" Then the bunny ratified the
dried beans in the pod. Squicky
stopped crying She reached out her
little paw for the bean pod. She rat
tied it to and fro. Then she smiled
through her tears. looked up at Uncle
Wiggtly and said:
GOO"
Now. she's all right" said the
bunny. and so SQuicky-Squawky was.
All that day she stayed in school and
did her kindergarten lessons, and
whenever she felt like crying she rat
tied the bean pod. and it made her
think of home and she was happy. So
that's the story of Billie's beans. And

CATARRH IS
NOT INCURABLE

delicate membranes of the nose
and air passages. which choke up
and make breathing very difficult.
To get rid of these distressing ef-
fects you must remove their cause.
The blood is laden with the Ca
tarrh germs. which direct their at
tack against the tender and deli
cate membranes of the nose and
throat. These germs cannot be
reached by sprays or douches,
which. of course. have no effect
whatever upon the blood.
5. S. S. is a purely vegetable
remedy. made from roots and
herbs direct from the forests. which
combat promptly any disease
germs or impurities in the blood.
This great remedy has been used
for more than fifty years, with
most satisfactory results. 1t has
been successfully used by those af-
tllcted with even the severest cases
Of catarrh. because it drives out
from the blood the Catarrh germs
and eliminates every foreign sub
stance from the blood. S. S. S. is
sod by druggists everywhere.
For the benefit of those afflicted
with Catarh or other blood dis
eases. we maintain a medical de-
partment. in charge of a specialist

There Is no use permitting your
self to be deceived. Perhaps. like

and that you are doomed to spend
the remainder of your days hawk

miserable and the nights sleepless.

suits. If you are still content to
depend upon the use of sprays,
