LONELINESS OF C

Lloyd George, former premier Of the British empire, in a
reflective mood during a vacation at his in Crlccleth, Wales,
made this statement to his friends: "Power has its dlsadvan-
tage; the higher you climb the colder and loneEer it becomes.
eff a man treads a lofty path it is likely to be lonely; and
it will be the loneler in proportion to its loftiness," was never
more true among humans than with our beloved Lincoln. The
sadness in his kind eyes, the pathos in his whimsical smlle-lt
was loneliness that put it there.
How many of you have read what IS generally CONCEDED 70

Hutchinson? So human, so universally sympathetic, SO abb

Nurses Praise
The Merits OF TanLac

One of the outstanding features
in connection with the Tanlac treat
ment is the large number of pro-
fessionally trained nurses who have
found the medicine of such wonder
full merit that they have come out
with public statements telling OF the
remarkable results accomplished by
its use. Owing to the wide exper-
fence of nurses with various medi-
cines and in the are of the sick,
what they have to say about Tan
lac will be read with exceptional in
terest by the public generally.
Mrs. I. A. Borden, 425 Pontius
Ave, Seattle, Wash, a graduate of
the National Temperance Hospital,
Chicago, I'd for many years a lead
er in her profession, pays the fol-
lowing tribute to Tanlac;
From my long experience as a
nurse, | do not hesitate to say Tan
lac is Natures most perfect remedy.
1 have used it exclusively for seven
years in the treatment of my charity
patients. For keeping the stomach,
liver. kidneys and bowels function
ing properly and Tor toning UP the
system in general, Tanlac has no
equal"
Mrs. L. A. Lorentzen, graduate of
Bellevue Hospital, New York, now
a wealthy ard influential resident of
2S5 Faxon Ave-, San Francisco. says:
I'm all my experience as a nurse,
l never found a stomach medicine
and tonic that compares with Tan
lac. My own health was terrible
five years ago and although spent
hundreds of dollars in a vain search
for relief from nervousness, indi-
gestion and my generally rundown
condition, It remained for Tanlac to
give me back my health, and ]

YOUR BABY AND NINE
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED
Water Drinking

.Irs. r. II. S. writes:
There is just one question that
puzzles me concerning babies and
that is, is it absolutely necessary
for a baby to have boiled water be-
tween feelings?
My baby is three and one-half
months old and is breast fed. She
eats in never less than three hours,
and sometimes only every four
but when l try to give her water
she carries on something terrible.
She seems perfectly contented,
sleeps all through the night, and
that, from 7 at night until 6 in
the morning without waking.
Why does she refuse water?
At birth she weighed six and
three-fourths pounds and now
weighs fourteen.
Answer
She is |certainl.' a we'll fed and
contented babv and it Is impossi-
BILE to say just why she won't
have the water except that lots
of babies act the same way. 1t
is well for all young animals, hu-

at ONE time during the day. Two

Mrs. Cora Lynch, well-known

words:

was almost constantly suffering from
pains IN different parts of my body.
Tanlac restored my health splendid
ly. / now keep It in the house and
take a little when not feeling right.
1t never |disappoints me-"
Miss Mary Earle, 1881 North goth
ST., Omaha, Neb., for fifteen years a
practical nurse, recently stated:
"I can recommend Tanlac not
only because of what It has done for
me. but also because of what l have
seen it do for others. After a long
spell of typhoid my brother was so
weak he could barely walk from enc
chair to another. I gave him Tanlac
and it was simply marvellous the
way 1t built him up. Nursing him
through that long illness left me
weak and exhausted. 1 could eat
but little and my food hurt me. Tan
lac restored my strength and health
and built me up fifteen pounds in
weight. AS a nurse and user OF
Tanlac I give it my unqualified en-
dorsement."
Tanlac is for sale by all good
druggists. Accept no substitute.
Over 81 million bottles sold.

Teaching the Younger Generation

Teaching the Younger Generation
THE Proud Mother of Nine read
the placard over Pen No. 8 at the
C~ut-out's Poultry Show. There was
always a crowd where this old
Rhode Island Red hen clucked con-
tentedly over her brood of nine fluffy
children.
At noon while the visitors were
at their dinner, Billy Cut-out let the
fowls all out of their cages for an
airing. The whole barnyard gather
ed to teach the chicks a few tricks.
Professor Goose tried to show them
how to quack loud and deep, but all
the luck he had was to get a few
squeaky cheeps out OF them. Billy's
duck stood on his head in a puddle
of water like an acrobat, but when
one of the babies tried 1t, he
wrenched his back and cried bitterly
until Billy gave him a handful of
chicken feed.
Color the mother hen a reddish
brown with yellow beak and red
comb. Her chickens are yellow and
eat from a gray tin pan. The Poultry
Show is going off with a bang!

WHY. Sarah!!

The old Connecticut blue laws
were brief, but extraordinarily sim
pie, and left little to the imagination.
Regulations for the conduct of the
citizen included almost everything
from the size of hogsheads to the
price that might be charged for
"yearlings."
An old yellowed volume printed in
the quaint spelling of the English of
1860 gives some idea of the rigid
code by which these austere settlers
lived. Yet curiously enough, we
abide by many of their laws today.
The publishing of "theire purpose
of contract in some publique place"
eight days previously was required of
persons who wished to marry.
This was so ordered by the court,
"forasmuch as many persons intan-
gle themselves with rashe and incon-
siderate contracts for their future
Jennings in marriage covenant, to the
great trouble and greife of them
selves and THERE friends"
kissing appeared to have been
popular only with the young folks,
not with magistrates. A transcript
of some of the old records show that
one Jacob M. Murine and Sarah
futile had to pay a fine of twenty
shillings to the treasurer for spoon
ing. Here's the whole scandalous
story:
"Jacob came in and tooke up or
tooke away her gloves. Sarah desired
him to give her the gloves, TO which
he answered he would do so IL she
would give him a kysse, upon which
they sat down together, his arme be-
ing about her Waste, and her arme
on his shoulder or about his necke.
and he kyssed her and she kissed
him, or they kissed n another, as
Marion and Susan, her sisters, testi-
fed in court"
Kid sisters who run and tell
haven't changed much since 1850.
