through it. l tried other remedies,
but didn't get much relief. One box

Calomei is dangerous. 1t may sal

excessive saliva dribbling from the

is a harmless vegetable substitute for

and if it doesn't start your liver and

than nasty calomel and without max

If you take ca1omel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides,

PREFER HOME TO BUSINESS
Most Women Who Quit Their "Jobs"
! Do So With a View to Be-
coming Wives.

IN normal times, twenty out of ev.
cry one hundred persons engaged in
galnful occupations in the United
states are women. At present 1t is
believed that eight million women and
girls are at work and that a fourth
more, will be when industry reaches
normal conditions. This invasion OF
women applies to almost every field OF
enterprise.
Yet these figures take no account
of the vastly greater number of won.
en- who are not classed as in "gainful
occupations yet perform the natural
junction OF Women-hOme' making.
The woman who is home maker may
not be able to count her income in dol
lars as accurately as the other, who
draws a fixed salary, yet she is in a
gainful occupation nevertheless. Her
levels" may be her sons and daugh-
tiers and her reward may be less finan-
cial, but she has it in the satisfaction
of having done woman's part in rear
Ing a family. 1t does not fall to ev-
cry woman. to give. such service, but
70 whomever it is given to be. wife
and mother the reward is not less
though 1t Is expressed in different
terms. 4 f
That the position Of home maker is
the natural desire Of women is shown
In that about as many step out Of
"galnful occupations" annually as en-
ter them. Thus for most women such
employment is but temporary in con-
temptation Of marriage. That SO many
are willing to exchange salaries for
tne home is proof which occupation
appeals with more force to women

One of the most impressive services
OF the year was held at our church last
Sunday morning. While we had no
regular sermon our pastoramade some
timely remarks which were very help
tul to the large congregation.
The baptismai service at which two
young converts were baptized was
very impressive.
After the sacrament of the Lords
supper the regular collection for the
poor concluded the morning service.
At 3 O'Clock Miss Matte Perry
spoke to crowded house. Her vivid
portrayal of the death of Jesus Christ
on the ross, to save lost world, was
one OF her most effective sermons
since her arrival here.
AT 8 o'clock, Miss Perry spoke to
record congregation. Her message
conferred about Jesus Christ and what
1t cost Him to redeem the world. Z
Miss Perry's meetings are gaining

DIR. PRICE SPEAKS TO
SUNDAY SCHOOL

DR.. B. J. Price of Washington, was
a visitor and speaker at the First M.
z. Church Sunday School last Sun
day morning. Being an assistant su-
perintendent of large school in his
home city he is an interested visitor
of Sunday Schools at the times his
position as Federal chemist takes him
to various other places. His main
thought was concerning the observ-
ance of an American Sabbath, which
he said was this year in Washington
to be more ignored than any previous
year, that more Sunday baseball games
were scheduled to be played there this
year than at any time even during the
war, when it was first tolerated as 4
war privilege.
He raised the question, "Why does
Philadelphia have no Sunday ball
games?' He asserted the reason is
the early Quaker IDEAS of religious
propriety remain to this day bulwark
against profaning the sacred day.
He'asked and answered the question
about Boston in the same way. Puri-
tan foundations and sentiments pre-
serve the sacredness of Sunday in Bos-
ton.
He deplored the fact that our ma
tons capital should in this respect
be the most un-American of all the old
or cities.
