OLD-FASHIONED HOME LIFE
THING OF PAST, SAYS PRIZES

:. The wonderful word which is found
only in the English Language
to which other tongues refer,
only in differing phrases, the word
home" was the theme of an eloquent
and timely sermon delivered at the high
mass in st. Patricils church Sunday by
, Rev. F. L. Ledwith, OF Hartford. Home
should be the child's world; but old
| fashioned home life Is fast becoiEing a
| thing Of the past, the preacher declared.
| His sermon was warning to parents to
see to it that they made home, let it be
ever so rumble, the place Of attraction to
their children rather than have them
spending their time in the homes Of
neighbors or On the street corners or in
! the movies.
! Above all, he admonished the heads Of
families to make sure that they knew
| thoroughly the character of the conpan-
lens of their children. the nature of the
| child's pastimes, etc. In this connecti. n
| 'lttering a solemn warning against the
care essness of parents who let their
boys take the first step in m3ral downfall
by acquiring the deplorable habit Of
gambling. ~
Laxity in the matter of supervision on
the part of well-to-Jio paren's who throw
the responsibility for. bringing up Their
children upon nurses or tutors. as well es
iof those who are content, because the
child is in school for five hours day
I for five days week, to let the remaining
nineteen hours and the remainder of the
week be spent as the child himself wills.

It's Not a Cri1ne
To Be Thin, But

it's really embarrassing to be so thin that
people speak of you as being skinny"
After all. it's not necessary to be either
thin, weak or anemic- Most any man or
woman who wants to put On flesh. in
crease strength, endurance and vitality
can do it in a few weeks by getting a
package Of Blood-IrQn Phosphate from
National Drug Store or any other good
druggist, and taking as directed. This
increases the red blood cells, strengthens
the nervous system and thus helps to
quickly overcome those troubles, such as
thinness, anemia. neurasthenia, sleepless-
ness and physical weakness due to or ac-
compapied by impoverished blood and
weak nerves Blood-Iron Phosphate costs
only $1.50 for a three weeks treatment,
and is SO genuinely good that the drug
gist Of whom you buy it is authorized to
refund the full price to you if you are
dissatisfied: Better get Blood-Iron Phos-
phate and begin ftS use todaE.
