Insect Voices Distinct,
but Without Sweetness

There are no sweet-yoiced vocal
lists among our crickets. They are
essentially instrumentalists.
Some locust carry on like the vlo-
linist, using the hind legs as a bow
and the wing covers as the instru-
ment. Others, including the cricket,
most of the grasshoppers and the
katydids, produce the musical waves
by rubbing the wings against one an
other in rapid succession.
Nearly all Of these insects have
some characteristic sound that serves
as a means of Identification. There
is no mistaking the chirp of the
cricket during the twilight hours or

A Doctor Knows!

There's a very good reason why
doctors and hospitals have always
used liquid laxatives! You'd use a
liquid, too, if you knew how much
better it makes you feel.
A liquid laxative can always be
taken in the right amount. You can
gradually reduce the dose. Reduced
dosage Is the secret Of real and safe
relief from constipation.
Just ask your own doctor about
this. Ask your druggist how popular
liquid laxatives have become. The
right liquid laxative gives the right
kind Of help, and the right amount
Of help. When the dose is repeated,
instead of more each time, you take
less. Until the bowels are moving
regularly and thoroughly without
any help at all.
People who have experienced this
comfort, never return to any form
