Scientists of international, prom

of young animals have remarkable
power for renewing vitality, toning

BY a new discovery these glands
are now scientifically prepared in
convenient, compact tablet form for
internal use. This preparation is
known as Glandogen, prepared from
the vital glands of healthy young
animals.
People who have taken Glando.

YOUR EXPRESSION

Your expression, have you ever thought how important
it is. What a large part it plays in the judgments your fellow
beings form of you.
Are there not people whom you know only from their ex-
preston as you pass them on the street day after day. You
have never met them but you have judged their character and
disposition from their daily expression, have you notP Does it
occur to you that others may be doing the same to you. How
are you measuring up? What opinions are people forming
of you, especially those who know you only in this casual way,
and can judge you by your expression alone.
Don't you know people who go through life with an ex-
preston of discomfort on their faces, giving everybody the
impression that the good, best and big things of life are re-
served for others but not for them9 Do you have a discon-
tented, unhappy, restless expression, or is it sunny, hopeful
and cheerful? If you would be popular watch your expression:
In your business life your expression is an indication of
your business attitude. Keep it keen and alive so that it shows
an interest in your work. Don't look bored, Indifferent, weary
unto-death of this daily grind. If you do, you may be sure
YOUR boss will notice it and judge your interest and liking for
your work accordingly.
The saleswoman especially should be particularly care
full of her expression. AS a customer approaches she should
not give a bored smile of duty, but smile in a sincere way that
will make a customer feel that she is welcome in the store.
Keep your expression alert, friendly, pleasant and intel
ligent if you would win friends and success.

One Of the big Eastern bathing
beaches has banned legs for women.
That is, the authorities (masculine
gender) have decided that stockings
must be worn by women bathers at
all times, and that ever the rolled
down variety viii not do. They do
not specify whether the three-inch
tops shall be of Isle or silk, however,
and so far 70 arbitrary edict has
gone forth as 10 color.
The knee censors had a busy time
the first Sunday the order went into
effect.
Bathing suits worn by men UNDER
90 no such supervision. Man may
parade his spavin-kneed, knobby-
jointed form. with humps aft and
paunches forward, in all his native
beauty with nobody to protest.
This spectacle Frances out on the
springboard, and you observe the
same attitude of self-approval that
Walt Whitman had in mind when he
wrote II celebrate myself"
This exhibition of manly strength
is supposed to be an edifying one.
But the discovery that women are
bipeds seems to be a never-ending
source of shock to the official male
mind.
In this sweet land of censorship it
may come to pass that women who
wish to take a dip in the salty surf
will be compelled to wear divers
suits.

Most of the qualities that COM
bined to make his greatness were
inherited by Wendell Phillips, great
American orator and reformer, from
his mother, Sally VALLEY, a splendid
sweet woman, of charming manner
and high principles. Although he
was the eighth child of his mother,
he did not find her a tired, worn-out
woman, who regarded her duty to
her children fulfilled by bringing
them into the world. She felt that
she must help them as they grew in
to boy and girlhood, to man and
womanhood. And her help did not
end with the material comforts she
created for them. She believed that
a mother must do more than feed
her children well, and clothe them
warmly. She felt that they needed
her mental and spiritual understand
ing. as well.
The life of Sally Phillips vas de-
voted to doing these things for her
children. Her chief aid was the

Bible; she never grew weary of
searching the Scriptures, and said
she could find solace for any trouble
there, as well as the answer to any
problem.
She believed in the value of early
religious impressions, but was wise
enough not to make the children's
religious training a task. but rather
a pleasure. Her outstanding quail
ties, every one of which her famous
son inherited, were a beautiful SIM
plicity of manner and attitude; an
earnest sincerity, and an intense de-
termination to stand by the right. 1t
was this last mentioned quality that
most clearly reflected in the life of
Wendell Phillips. He could not bear
to see injustice done to anyonesand
would stand by the right regardless
of the cost to him. He always de-
clared that his mother had given
him the love of justice, both by in
heritance and teaching.

allow her mind TO dwell upon thu
fact that she had too little. or too
rich milk, she simply continued to
nurse until nature righted itself and
the baby began to gain. We know
that most mothers of past years were
willing to admit that their babies,
especially their first ones. cried a
great deal. But they bore it phil
osophically, they walked the babies
at night, they ate heartily. worked
hard. and inevitable what I'VE was
