 Cream and sugar sets in pottery, either bright or pastel shades, fashioned in the card emblems; Italian ash tray and cigarette box sets, little amber pups that hold one cigarette to mark each guest s place, juniper wood ash trays, cleverly turned juniper-wood candy dishes, mirror place cards with

Prompt Help For
A Li.tIe.. Child

Scolding won't help a boy or girl
who is listless, dull or cross from
constipation. But, here's something
that will!
II sluggish bowels have your child
headachy, bilious, upset, give him
. little Syrup of Black raught to-
night. Like the original famed
BLACK-DRAUGHT, its principal
ingredient is an intestinal tonic
laxative. Helps impart tone to the
bowel muscles.
Children like the taste Of Syrup Of
Black-D raught. 1t is an all vege-
table product. When simple direc-
hons are followed, its action is
gentle, but prompt and complete.
Comes in two sizes: SOC and 25c.
