WHEN YOU TAKE
A LAXATIVE
...use a spoon
It isn’t what brand of laxative you
take that’s so important—it's the
form. A liquid laxative can Lie taken
in any required amount. If only a
little is needed, you need never take
a bit too much.
Doctors favor the easily measured
liquid laxatives. Instead of any form
that docs not encourage variation
from the fixed dose. A fixed dose may >
be an overdose for you—or your
child.
Always remember this one thing
about constipation: the secret of any
real relief is reduced insage.
Give the bowels only as much help
as may be needed, and less help as
the need grows less. You will find Dr.
Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin an excellent
aid in regulating the bowels. It con
tains senna and cascara (natural
laxatives) and it will clear-up any
bilious, sluggish condition without
upset. Delightful taste, and pleasant
action. Your druggist has it.

there wus one person to whom Red

did not see him At nil. It wns Red

of an alder tree on the bank of the
Smiling Pool. Redwing hnd not
seen Reddy until the lutter had al

Then, happening to look in that di

something red moving In the tall
grass. You see, he was looking down
und therefore could see what those
on the ground or In the water could
not see.
Now Redwing does not fear Red
dy Fox. There Is no reason why
he should. Hut Redwing hus no
love for Reddy Fox. He knows that
Reddy would gladly catch him If he
could. So the Instant he was sure
that It was Reddy creeping through
the tall grass. Redwing tlew out
directly above Reddy and began to
scream, "Danger! Danger!" he
screamed. "Here Is Reddy Fox!
Danger! Danger!"
At the first warning note from
Redwing, Grandfather Frog dived
into the Smiling Pool with a great
splush. There wasn't any real need
for him to do so because out on that
big green Illy pad of his, he was
quite safe from Reddy. Hut Grand
father Frog always feels more com
fortable In the water when any kind
of danger Is around. All along the
shore of the Smiling Pool, half
grown young frogs dived Into the
water in a panic. They knew what
had brought Reddy over to the Smil
ing Pool.
Of course at the first note of Red
wing's voice the eyes of Danny
Meadow Mouse tlew open. The In
stant he saw where Redwing was
hovering In the air as he screamed
lie knew that Reddy Fox was just
beneath him and that meant that
I Reddy was right back of Danny him
self. What should he do? Where
should he run? To turn back would
be to run right Into Reddy's mouth.
There wasn’t a hiding (dace uear.
It was useless for him to try to out
run Reddy, for Reddy could catch
him in two jumps. Was ever a
meadow mouse In a more dreadful
position? There was Reddy Fox be
hind him and the Smiling Pool in
front °f him. To Grandfather Frog,
whose hig goggl.v eyes showed Just
above the surface of the water. It
looked as if Danny Meadow Mouse
would soon he no more. He couldn’t
see one little chance for Danny to

And brought a gift to me,

And there was nothing i could

A happy smile, n loving glance,
And in my heart new courage

To conquer changing circurn

There Is no gift that can be bought.
Or any work of art,
As precious ns tlit* one she brought;
The beauty of n friendly heart.

the classic shirtwaist frock Is still

mntch the chic of its buttoned front
closing is smartly gathered to the
yoke—the long skirt seams end in
jaunty inverted pleats — and the

by being rounded Instead of square.
Make it of a rough crepe and put an
impudent little contrasting bow at
the throat for added chic!
