FREEDOM FROM

Discovery by Scientists Has Replaced
Them.

Pills ard salts give temporary re-
lief from constipation only at the ex-
pense Of permanent injury, says an
eminent medical authority.
Science has found a newer, better
way-a means as simple as Nature
itself.
In perfect health a natural lubricant
keeps the food waste soft and moving.
But when constipation exists this nat
ural lubricant Is not sufficient. Medi.
cal authorities have found that the
gentle lubricating action of Nujol most
closely resembles that of Natures own
lubricant. AS Nujol is not a laxative
1t cannot grippe. 1t is in no sense a
medicine. And like pure water 1t Is
harmless and pleasant.

l have noticed n curious practice in

khich is significant. If you step into
h taxi In London and the door slips
out of your hand and swings open,
there will always be someone to dart
out of the crowd on the pavement and
close 1t for you. In America one
would merely say Thanks or nod his
head for this favor. The Londoner
will instantly throw n penny to the
man who shuts the door. The penny
will be accepted and the recipient
touches his cap In acknowledgment.

one on the lookout to arm a penny,

Latin an Aid to Business.

Persons who wish to become pro-
ficient in business English should study
Latin, according to DR.. J. Duncan
Spaeth, professor of English Mt Prince
ton university, because the study Of
Latin gives the necessary training in
the fundamental laws Of syntax and
grammatical structure. 1t also serves
as an Introduction to word structure
and word derivation. Doctor Spaeth
believes. that a business man should
have a knowledge of from 100 to 500
Latin words and their derivatives as
the basis for good business English.
