KILLING TIME

There used to be many people who
as the phrase went, were trying to
"kill time" Society folks, young
people enjoying vacations and other
leisure classes, had lot of spare time
they did not know what to do with.
Many of them were bored with life,
and used to work harder finding
amusement to fill up their dreary
hours.
The time-killers in these days seem
to have disappeared. Multitudes of
women who used to keep servants
now do their own housework. Young
people who used to spend their sum
mers lolling around in outing clothes,
are now working on farms and in
banks and offices. Very few people
are at leisure except those who can
find no work.
People who have to "kill time" slf-
fer mental and moral decay. 1t is the
busiest folks who find time to do the
most for the community. The war has
brought many troubles, but it has
made our people purposeful and
achieving.-Springfield Republican.
Faith leads to success; fear to med
iocrity and failure.

WHY SUFFER FROM

Do you know that nine out of every
ten cases of rheumatism are simply
rheumatism of the muscles or chronic

any internal treatment? The pain
may be relieved by applying Cham
