WEEK BLOOD IS
 A REAL BARRIER
Growing Children Often Need
 Guides Pepto-Mangan

Some children grow too quickly-it gaps their strength. They lapse into careless, desultory habits, or develop a shrinking attitude. Their faces look pinched
 The blood becomes overtaxed by too rapid growth; and poisons from the system take the place of strength giving red corpuscles in the blood. Red corpuscles are those little red par tfcles that swim in blood and give it it's color Gradually that child loses in- terest in it's play.
 Poor blood needs the building that the iron in Guides Pepto-M Mangan gives to weakened blood. Gudes Pepto- Mangan enriches the blood by increasing the number of red corpus cles, and restores the blood by driving out the poisons. When the revived blood gets to work, the appetite be- comes what a growing child's should be-. Your druggist has Guides Pepto- Mangan in liquid or tablet form. The name "Gude's Pepto- -Mangan" is or every package. Advertisement.

There was a terrible hubbub in the henhouse. The Rooster squalled so loudly that he woke up every hen in the place. And when they heard him crying that skunk had knocked him off his roost they were as frightened as he was, and set up wild cackle. All but Henrietta Hen! She knew there was no skunk there.
 Don't be goose-er-don't be a gander" she hissed to the Rooster. I'm the one that bumped into you"
 The Rooster quickly come to his senses.
 Don't be alarmed, ladies!" he called to the flock. There's no dan ger. There's been a slight mistake" l" He pretended that he hadn't been scared. But he had been. And now he was somewhat uneasy about Hen rietta Hen. He feared he was in for a scolding from sher.

The-Way Lillian "Rescued"

Bess Dean was pitiful looking specimen of femininity, indeed, as with Dicky on one side, and Ted one of the Cosgrove twins-on the other, she tottered to the side of the car. and was hoisted-there is no other word describes the movement, for she could not climb, and mutely refused to be lifted-into the ton neau. Lillian and I had alighted from the car as soon as we caught sight of her, and would have hurried toward her but for Dicky's peremp- tory hand waving us back. f

The first thing to do is to get her off them, and we should only hinder him if we went over there. And P1I bet you three cook ies, sugar ones, that she won't ad- init her feet hurt. It'll be her head or her ears, or her@hands, anything but to give in that she shouldn't have forced her feet into these sneakers of yours"
 In spite of my very real concern at the girls appearance-her staring eyes set in her white face, her dis heveled hair, her aspect of exhaus- tion-I could not help little smile instantly suppressed and unobserved by her, when I heard her first mur- mured words:
 "Oh, my back 70 she moaned. "Ive wrenched it some way. Oh How am I going to stand the journey home?v

 Macaroni Dishes

 New York. Oct. 19.-Flne feathers may not make fno birds but they cer- tainly make fine fans. .s There are seasons when the fan re- tires modestly into the background, or hides modestly behind the rare lace of the Louis Quiflze period But not this season.
 Lord & Taylor's imported fans show a lavish gorgeousness.
 One brilliantly original fan is the one-sided, single handed effect in coque feathers of black and red. In the red and black vividness there IS still another fan of quills and the breasts of birds. It's large three pointed shape is quite original. In the gorgeous ostrich feather fans there is one of shaded brown and orange with a single stick effect. A fine, gold ribbon bow is so arranged that when the fan is suspended from the arm, as in dancing it closes. Brilliant sapphire willow -plumed fans of huge proportions, fame-col- ored fans of ostrich and jade green vie with the other shades. Lace, especially if it is gold and of unusual shape, is still beloved.~ For Those who wish elegance along qu1eter lines, there always remains old lace mounted on rare sticks. | One lace fan of carved mother of | pearl, inlaid in gold, is most beautiful. short" she muttered.
 The Rooster though it a great joke. | "Ha. Hal" he laughed. And he said to the rest of the flock, with a chuckle, Henrietta Hen thought it was morning! No doubt she's have gone out into the yard if the door hadn't been shut And the other hens all Uttered. They always did, l if the Rooster expected them to. | We'll, if there was one thing that | Henrietta Hen couldn't endure, 1t was to be laughed at.

 Don't you know why I crowed ?'' the Rooster asked her. And without waiting for any reply, he said, II crowed to, let Farmer Green know it was goings to rain tomorrow" Of course Henrietta Hen had to have the last word. The Rooster might. have known she would.
 Then" she observed, II suppose you squawked to let him know there was a skunk in the henhouse." | Copyright 1921 by The Metropolitan
