you've worn yourself out with extra
burdens. And now your strength is
slow to return,
Week after week you've felt too
tired for anything, and you have look
ed it too color bad, eyes dull, and
no enthusiasm.
When you don't feel well you are
not well. Probably what you need
right now is the good blood tonic
epto-Mangan. Physicians everywhere
recommend Pepto Mangan, for run
down, anemic people. Ask your doc
tor about it. Pepto Mangan supplies
the things that blood starved people
lack. 1t puts iron and vigor in the
blood. 1t paints the cheeks IN Natures
way, and restores the hearty APPETITE.
The blood is naturally sluggish in
the Spring and the whole family
would profit by taking Pepto Man
gan which tones up and builds up. 1t
is pleasant taking and soon makes
you feel better. Your own druggist
has it ready for your call and in both
liquid and tablet form, ust as you
prefer.
BIT to be certain that you get the
genuine Pepto-Mangan, ask for it by
the full name, "Gude's Pepto Man
gan" Look for the name Guides
on the package. Advertisement.

MICHIGAN SWINGS
oCHURCHES' HELP
3uT TO BEAT ITS WAR RECORDS
nv FINANCIAL CAMPAIGN OF
lNTERcHURCH WORLD
MOVEMENT.
DENOMINATIONS join
IN FORWARD MOVEMENTS

Out to beat its wonderful war-activi'
~ records, Michigan is swinging to
the support of the financial campaign
Of the Interchurch World Movement.
Backed by 30 of the strongest Protes-
liant denominations. this organization
plans the greatest Forward Movement
fngathering which the churches In
Volyed have ever known.
It is expected that in the week OF
the campaign, which will be from April
rs to May 2, Michigan will raise about
$4,000 for the 30 churches. Ma
iionally, third of a billion dollars
gill be asked. A 40 -U1
None of this money goes to the In
nrchurch World Movement itself. 1t
is to be raised first Of all by the
churches which are cooperating in the
campaign, and each of the denomina-
lions will retain all that it obtains
from it's own members. The money
xhich is subscribed by non-members Of
any church is to be divided pro rata
among them. The Interchurch World,
IN the financial campaign, is simply
an organization which aids all the
participating denominations In their
Forward Movements.
& In spiritual sense this budget rep
wsents the first attempt of the
churches to get together in a really
great effort to solve the problems
which have been pressing upon them
Cor past generations, and it is only a
Beginning.
This combined budget, however,
toes not spell church or denomina-
lional union. 1t simply indicates the
purpose of the denominations involved
10 follow the very obvious and prac-
peal method of combining their sew
sral campaigns and of raising their
money at the same time. Such
Instantaneous" campaign is
sound to affect great economies in
The matter of meetings, publicity and
the many other details related to the
task Of gathering funds.
!. The total amount to be paid this
year is approximately one-haH of the
sotal campaign budget of s3S6777 ,572.
The thirty denominations which are
cooperating in the campaign represent
approximately go per cent of the Pro-
sxtant Church membership of the Uni
esd States.

derived from the Greek adamao-un-

veyed the idea of invincible hardness.
