THE Emperor Augustus, we are told,
found Rome built of brick, but left
it city of marble. We might say
that now of those who build the new
Washington.
Huge stones, weighing many tons,
we see being swung into place, and we
remember that when floods came and
winds beat upon certain house, 1t fell
not, for 1t was founded on a rock.
Modern Washington will be like that,
God willing"
In calling the roll of "oficials and
organized forces that fight for WASH
ington," Mr.. Moves called first on Com
missioner Crosby and then started with
the oldest organization, the Associa-
tion of Oldest Inhabitants, organized

vice president of the organization, who

Raising her child on
common sense

uERE's baby that is being
/ i brought up in the way he
should go, on a plain, sensible kind
of rule. His mother learned it from
her own experience before he was
born. Just keep your system in good
working order," her doctor told her,
"and you'll never have anything to
worry about"
So, of course, when the baby came
she made up her mind to follow that
same plan with him. The doctor
gave his hearty approval. go ahead
and use Nujol," he said. 'It's just
the thing for the baby. Harmless.
Safe. Contains no drugs or medicine.
It's the most natural way in the
world to keep everything normal.
For Nujol not only prevents any ex-
cess of the body poisons 1--WE all have
them) from forming, but also aids in
their removal.
s'Let me give you another sugges-
tion, too. Use Nujol on the outside of
the baby. In place of powder. Just
swab his skin, after the bath, with a
bit of cotton moistened with Nujol.
That's the new method they're
using in the big hospitals. It has a
wonderfully soothing, softening ef-
feet on the skin. There's no need for
any baby to,have rashes and chahng
If you use Nujol. Get big bottle
and keep it specially for the baby.
Get separate bottle for yourself"
Why don't you try Nujol in your
household It was perfected by the
famous Nujol Laboratories, z Park
Avenue, New York City.
Nujol can't do anyone-baby or
grown-up-the least Bit of harm.
And SO many people have found it
beneficial. Be sure you get the
genuine. Advertisement
