Singing and buzzing in ears

And here's something that will ds.
light millions of men-after you snrsv
refreshing Opex in nostrils and throat
for weeks you won't have that INN N

Of smell but taste also.
You can always get Opex at anv

FIGHT RIGHT BACK
WITH PEBECO

The war in your mouth never ends.
If unchecked, the mouth acids attack
the teeth crevices necessarily, until
painful cavities start. But just rally
PEBECO Tooth Paste to your aid.
Pebeco not only cleans and whitens
but actually neutralizes these de-
structive acids. The result: Spark
ling white teeth, safeguarded. and
you're glad that you tried Pebeco
when you found ordinary dentifrices
50 disappointing. Start giving your
teeth Pebeco's help today.

GOLD STAR MOTHERS
TRIP PLANS ARE LAID
Congress Completes Action on
Legislation to Enable Them to
Visit Graves in France.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Congress completed action yesterday
on legislation to provide $5,386, 1857 to
enable Gold Star Mothers and World
War widows to make pilgrimage to the
graves of the loved one in France.
Present plans for the pilgrimages
would bring the Gold Star Mothers and
World War widows from all parts of
the country to New York at Govern
ment expense. After a day or two in
that city, they would be given cabin
class accommodations to Europe, two
weeks abroad, and the journey home
again, with even the expense of tips
provided for.
Maj. Gen. Frank B. Cheatham, under
whose direction the pilgrimages will be
made, announced after an extensive
survey that majority of the 6,73O who
had signifled a desire to make the trip
probably would go during 1880.
Gen. Cheatham said he would try to
arrange for mothers and widows from
the same localities to make the PILGRIM
age together. He will provide a per-
sonnet of guides and interpreters from
the staff of the Army.

the family to build their houses In
the same way. They all took his
advice, and their children, when
they grew up, did. too; and they
advised their children, and so on
down to Buddy Beavers own Fa-
ther, who showed him how to lay
sticks and stones on the roof rag
gedy and jaggedy.
Another queer thing about Buddy
Beavers house Is that the water
comes way up over the front and
back doorsl The family have to
hold their breath and swim under
water to get ini
You'd think the water would run
into the house but Buddy Beaver
couldn't breathe II 1t did, so he
builds warm mud-plastered living
room up above the water line and
leaves little opening In the roof
to let in sweet fresh air. Two
steep, slippery tunnels lead down
from the living room to the front
and back doors.
Lookl The lovely golden mirror
on the pond has broken. There's
Buddy Beaver swimming, his little,
round, black shining eyes and his
nose raised high out Of the water
sniff1ng-sniff1ng shifting He's try
ing to find out If Unfriendly Beasts
are about and his sensitive nose
and little ears will tell him who's
there before his blinking eyes can
see. Watch his broad tail move

little beach now. How big he Is /!
And his long fur Is all dark and
sleek and oily.
There he goes waddling up a
path he has made through the
bushes. Orunchl Crunchl Crunch |!
He must be cutting a poplar branch
with his sharp teeth. Crunch
Crunch! CRUNCH! Now he comes
this way, but all we can see Is a
bunch Of green leaves walking on
four legs. Oh, I see him now. Do
you? He has the end of the branch
in his mouth and drags the rest be-
side him. How easily he slides of
into the water and swims straight
toward his house. Not a splash or
a spatter-just a lovely curved
brown back, q few air bubbles and
down he goes, carrying the green
leaves with him. Green poplar
leaves, all freshly cut and juicy
that's what Buddy Beavers Babies
eat for supper.
Crack ThwackI Splash! What
a noisel Did you see the water
fly? They heard something and
Buddy Beaver slapped his tail down
hard and fiat on the water ut
sounded like gun)-to warn Mrs.
Beaver Of danger and to say, olive
under Quickly!"
Buddy Beaver may come up
again and swim down for a last
look at his dam before he goes to
bed but it will be too dark for you
and me to see him.
Now when you find an old heap
of sticks all raggedy and jaggedy,
near the edge Of a pond, you'll
know who lives there, won't you?
But please keep 1t very big secret
between YOU and ME and BUDDY
BEAVER.
