LAID ON SUNDAY SO
EGGS MUST BE GOOD
Woman in Minnesota Sends $40 to
Children's Home From Sale of
Hennery Products.

From the sale of eggs laid on Sun
day." read the message received by
Rev. DR.. J. E. Klingberg, superin-
tendent of the Children's home, when
he opened letter containing check
for $40 this week. The letter came
from woman in Minnesota.
The Children's Home has several
women in different sections of the
country who are in the business of
raising chickens and selling eggs.
These women, knowing that chickens
are poor observers of the Sabbath

Don't Let That Cold
Turn Into "Flu"
Rub on Good Old Musferole

Rub on Good Old Musterole
That cold may turn into Flu"
Grippe or, even worse, Pneumonia,
unless you take care of it at once.
Rub good old Musterole on the con-
gested parts and see how quickly it
brings relief.
Colds are merely congestion. Mus
terole, made from pure oil of mustard,
camphor, menthol and other simple
ingredients, is counter-irritant which
stimulates circulation and helps break
UP the cold.
Aseffective as the messy old mustard
plaster, it does the work without the
blister.
Just rub it on with your finger-tips.
You will feel warm tingle as it enters
the pores, then cooling sensation that
brings welcome relief.

Better than a mustard plaster

sorted to futile devices, or to some
tragic issue before the end, or to some
futile hope. 1t took mind like
Chauvannes', profoundly sane, to see
that the thing that awaited him was
inevitable!
Il studied that journal as closely as
a cipher dispatch. The evidences of
Chauvannes' mental condition did not
appear until the entries beginning
about the seventeenth Of December
the day on which they finally came
out of the forest on the old elephant
trail. OF course. strange things had
happened before that--the defamation
of the force for one thing. But Chau-
vannes never seemed to attribute this
to any but natural cause, sort of
united plan of the dwarf camps to de-
stroy the members of the expedition.

elbows just like old Mr.. Slimkins when
he has a misery. Mary got to talking
with Josiah. She found out he was a
great traveller. He had been to Mo-

Then Mary Jane said this was no

made the most delicious fudge and
