Build-Up77 Good News
For Suffering Women
Much of women s periodic dis
tress may be unnecessary!
Many who suffer from headaches
nervousness, cramp-like pain, other
symptoms of functional dysmenor
rhea due to malnutrition are help
ed by CARDUI.
Main way it helps relieve period
ic distress is by increasing appet
ite and flow of gastric juice. Thus
it often aids digestion; helps build
strength, energy, resistance to per
iodic disturbances.
Others find help for periodic dis
comfort this way: Start a few days
before and take CARDUI until
“the time” has passed. Women
have used CARDUI for more than
50 years.
QUIET JOB
A very particular woman was
having her bedroom painted. Wish
ing to learn what progress the
painter was making, she crept to
the bottom of the stairs and listened.
Not a sound reached her ears, says
Stray Stories Magazine.
"Painter,” she yelled, becoming
suspicious, "are you working?"
"Yes, ma’am," came the reply.
"I can’t hear you making a
sound,” the woman replied.
"Perhaps not, ma’am,” the paint
er yelled back. “I ain't putting the
paint on with a hammer."
Business
"Yes,” said the stranger in the
inn parlor, "this hiking is a fine
idea. Nothing pleases me better
than to see crowds of people on the
roads these days.”
"Do you hike yourself, sir?"
asked the landlord.
"Oh, no,” came the reply. "I'm a
manufacturer of com plasters I”
OFF THE LIST
Dad—Your teacher sends me bad
reports of you.
Jimmy—That's the last apple
she’ll get from me.
In Danger
“You admit, then,” said the mag
istrate, “that you stole the pig?”
"Yes, your worship,” replied the
defendant.
“Well, there has been a lot of pig
stealing lately, and I am going to
make an example of you, or none of
us will be safe."
Uncle Solidtop—Do you know
good way to clean old ivory?
His Nephew—I dunno. I should
think any good scalp wash would
fix you up all right.
Tales of the Frontier
Oliver—How tall was that famous
old Indian hunter?
Andy—Oh, I imagine he was about
six feet in his stalking feet.
_
The Quickest Way
Betty—How can I get my husband
to discuss his business affairs with
me?
Alice—Ask him when he intends
to buy a new car.
Found Out

posit, then you make no more pay
ments for six months.

about us?

hot for you when you don't show up
In time for dinner?
Bunchuck—No, she lets me eat it

ENCOURAGED HER A LOT
A little girl, on her first day at
school, was found by one of the
teachers in tears, says London An
swers Magazine. "Why, dear,”
asked the sympathetic lady, "what’s
the matter?”
“They tell me,” said the child be
tween her sobs, "that I shall have
to stay here until I’m 14.”
Teacher patted her on the shoul
der. "Cheer up,” she said gently,
"you’re better off than I am. Just
think, I have to stay here until I'm
85.”
The Lesser Evil
As the small boy came running
round the comer he collided with an
old lady.
“Dear me,” she said, “where are
you off to?”
“Home,” he panted, “mother’s go
ing to spank me.”
“But do you mean you want to
be punished?”
"No,” said the little boy, “but If
I’m not back before father, he’ll
do it!”
Bum Luck
Two members of the legal profes
sion. one decidedly glum of counte
nance, met on the street.
"Well, how’s business?" the first
asked the second one.
"Rotten,” the pessimist replied,
"1 just chased an ambulance 12
miles and found a lawyer in it.”
Little of It
Diner—Waiter, these are very
small oysters.
Walter—Yes, sir.
And they don't seem very fresh.
No, sir. Under the circumstances
it seemed best to serve only the
smallest ones.
OH. MY NO
“Do you spend your evenings
holding hands?"
"I’m no gambler—whatever you
mean!”
Valuable Warning
DeTwitter—He’s not a handsome
dog, but he’s very useful. No tramp
or beggar can come near the house
without our knowing it.
McTweet—What’s he do? Snarl?
“No, he runs upstairs and crawls
under the bed.”
The Trap’s All Set
Barney—I’m sorry to keep you
waiting, but I’ve just been setting
a trap for my wife.
Paul—Good heavens! Who do you
suspect?
Barney—A mouse in the kitchen.
The Laugh on Him
“Who is that awful-looking wom
an?"
“My wife! Ha! You made a
bloomer there!”
“Me? No—you did!”
Nor Rabbit In tha Rarebit
Guest—Say, ma’am, you didn’t
put any chicken in my chicken soup.
Waitress—That’s right. And I
didn't put any horse in the horse
radish, either.
On His Way
Visitor—Am I headed right for the
monkey cage?
Little Boy—Yes, sir. but you would
stand a better chance if you had a
tail.
MANY KICKS. TOO
“The mule lives a comparatively
short life.”
"Yes; but it’s a life full of kick.”
Too Late
Author—Well, sir, the upshot of
It was that it took me 10 years to
discover that I had absolutely no
talent for writing literature.
Friend—You gave up?
—O, no; by that time I

Canned Salmon Rescues Lenten Menus
The coming of Lent brings with It
the demand for substantial tempting
entrees for service on the days of
abstinence. This need is easily and
economically filled by referring to
such a familiar seafood favorite as
canned salmon and becoming better
acquainted with the versatile culi
nary ways of this nourishing, fine
flavored food.
Among the scores of savory main
dishes featuring canned salmon, none
is more popular than the familiar
salmon patty. A deliciously seasoned
version of this favorite makes its
appearance today under the title of
Southern Salmon Cutlets. These cut
lets may be fried to golden brown in
a skillet or in deep fat, as the cook
prefers. They are excellent served
with wedges of lemon and with tar
tar sauce.

Heat Wave
Betty—How old is the Goon?
Oliver—I dunno. But when they
brought in her birthday cake, six
guests fainted from the heat.
Keeping Busy
Mistress (to butler)—Why is it,
John, every time I come home I
find you sleeping?
Butler—Well, ma’am, it's this
way, I don’t like to be doing nothing.
Always Repeats Itself
Mr. Jones—Billy, how did you
make out with your examinations?
Billy—Oh, just like Napoleon.
Mr. Jones—What do you mean?
Bobby—I went down in history.
‘Greater Love’—Etc.
Him—Marry me?
Her—This is so sudden! Have you
seen father?
Him—Yeah. And I love you so
much I’ll marry you anyhow!
Taking No Chances
Unsympathetic Mother — Why
didn't you come and ask me first if
you wanted to go Ashing?
Sobbing small son—Because I
wanted to go fishing.
Cursing Well in Wales
American visitors to Britain, fa
miliar with the feat of witches that
flourished at Salem, Mass., in the
late Seventeenth century, are fre
quent visitors to St. Elian’s well.
Wales, where a belief in witchcraft
lingered until 1818. The ancient well,
not far from Colwyn bay. a sea
side resort that has been likened to
Atlantic City, was used to put a
curse upon persons against whom
the old Welsh entertained a grudge.
This medieval convenience, unique
in the British Isles but not unknown
to several places on the continent,
was known as a "cursing well."
Church Has Dungeon
The Great Salkeld church in Cum
berland. England, has a dungeon
that was built to hold those captured
in the Border wars, relates a writer
in Collier’s Weekly. The houses of
parliament in London have pink rib
bons hanging from the hooks in the
coatrooms for the checking of
swords; and many old houses on
the island of Guernsey have seats
built on the sides of their chimneys
for weary witches.
Fires That Never Die
Hearth fires are believed to be
sacred and are never allowed to die
among many Bantu tribes of South
Africa. Each Are is lighted in the
first place from that in the kraal
or home of the chief. The flame is
carefully guarded day and night and
is so highly regarded by some tribes
that all food is laid before it and
so blessed before consumption.
Old Way of Catching Fish
One of the oldest ways of catching
fish is to tickle them, says Collier's
Weekly. The most susceptible spe
cies are those that bask in shallow
water with their heads under rocks.
As the fishermen gently tickles their
sides, they slowly move backward
into his hand and then he seizes
their gills.
‘Firewater’ Appropriate Name
"Firewater" was an appropriate
name for some of the liquor once
sold to the American Indians. Often,
says a writer in Collier’s Weekly,
it was a boiled concoction consisting
of alcohol, ginger, molasses, tobac
co and red pepper that made real
whisky seem mild.
Named After Saints
One of the distinctions which vis
itors And in the churches of Holland
pertains to their names. They were
named after saints. Since the days
of the Reformation they are called
either Groote, Oude or Nieuwe—
great old or new.
mins A, D, and G, canned salmon is
one of the most nutritious of protein
foods. It is a food highly recom
mended by dietitians for its ready
digestibility and high food value and
by homemakers for its general avail
ability, economical low price and
ease of service.

Each Key Gives Two Notes
The accordion produces greater
volume of sound for its size than
any musical instrument. Each key
gives two notes, one when the bel
lows are compressed, the other
when they are opened. Moisture
affects the vibration of delicate
reeds, thus changing the tones of
the instrument.
Largest North American Bird
The California condor, which is
found almost exclusively in that
state, is the largest bird in North
America. It varies in length from
44 to 55 inches and has a wing
spread of 8*4 to 11 feet. The famil
iar humming bird is the smallest
North American bird.
How Bay Rum Is Made
Bay rum is made by mixing oil of
bay with alcohol and water and add
ing small amounts of the oil of or
ange peel and of allspice to give
fragrance. Oil of bay is obtained
by distilling the leaves of the bay
berry, a West Indian tree of the
myrtle family.
Acorns Used as Food
The acorn, fruit of the oak tree,
once served as a principal article of
human diet during the autumn. The
‘‘sweet acorns” of southern Europe
are widely eaten.
Mount Vernon Memorial Highway
The Mount Vernon Memorial high
way begins at the western extremity
of Arlington Memorial bridge in Vir
ginia and extends approximately
15t4 miles along the Virginia shore
of the Potomac river to the estate
of Mount Vernon.
Pumps From 'Pomp’
Although the origin of the name
"pumps" for slipperlike shoes is un
known, one authority suggests that
the title is a variant of “pomp,”
since shoes of this type first were
worn in ultra-fashionable circles.
‘Showing the White Feather’
The phrase, "showing the white
feather," comes from cock-fighting.
A bird which had a white feather in
its tail was regarded as a poor fight
er. The term is used of cowardice.
Can't Count on Satan
"You never know when Satan Is
gwinter do his best singin’," said
Uncle Eben, "wif de most evil in
tentions.”
Wrote ‘Rock of Ages’ on Card
While seeking shelter from a
storm under the cleft of a rock,
Augustus Toplady wrote "Rock of
Ages" on a card.
Plant Has ‘Fleece’ Like Sheep
The Tartanian lamb is a plant,
not an animal. This Chinese fern
has a "fleece” resembling that of
sheep.
First to Try Segregating Prisoners.
The system of segregating all
prisoners in separate cells was first
tried out in a comprehensive way
in Philadelphia about 1830.

BANANAS IN A NEW ROLE
(by Arden Duane for ANP)
Many of the up-to-date house
wives are featuring the big, golden
lucious banana—as a vegetable—
baked—broiled, —fried. Or maybe
you are a housewife who prefers it
as a fruit in the latest salad with
fluted edges—Or tempting banana
bread—delicious banana shortcake
—smooth rich banana ice cream.
In the days of Alexander the
Great, the banana was called the
“Fruit of the Wise Men”. Is it
true that they knew that the ban
ana was one of the best foods for
quick energy and extremely rich
in nourishment? Today scientists
recommend ripe bananas for the
babies, children, mother-to-be, ath
letes, slim figures, and old folks
because of the unusual source of
vitamins, the essentials, minerals
and energy giving substances that
help to prevent many .ills.
I have prepared a leaflet on how
to buy bananas, how to suit the col
or to the use and complete instruc
tions on how to bake-peel or un
peeled—to broil and to fry. Also
twelve unusual names. Bananas
scallops, Bananas Peanut Salad,
Banana and Apple Brown Betty,
Sausages Baked in Bananas, Ban
ana Meat Loaf and others. Send
your request along with a loose 3

Flush Kidneys ef
Acid and Peiseus
Gain In Health and
Stop Getting Up
Nights
When Kidneys are continually
overburdened they often become
weak—the bladder is irritated —
often passage is scanty and smarts
and burns—sleep is restless and
nightly visits to the bath room are
frequent.
A safe, harmless and inexpensive
way to relieve this trouble and help
restore more iealthy action to kid
neys and bladder is to get from any
druggist a 35 cent box of GOLD
MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules and
take as dirceted—don’t be disap
pointed.
Don’t be an EASY MARK and
accept a substitute—Ask for Gold
Medal Haarlem Oil Capsules —
right frtbm Haarlem in Holland.
GET GOLD MEDAL—the origin
al —the genuine. Look for the
Gold Medal on the box—35 cents.
Remember—other symptoms of
kidney and bladder trouble may be
backache, puffy eyes, nervousness
and leg cramps.
A Prominent Business
Woman Praises Mme. C. J.
Walker’s Preparations
‘‘I use Mme. C. J. Walker's
preparations exclusively be
cause I get results from them
that I am unable to get from any
other preparation," stated a well
known business woman the
other day.
The secret of the remarkable
success of Mme. C. J. Walker's
preparations is in the fact that
they were blended by the late
Madam C. J. Walker to reach
certain definite conditions of the
hair, skin and scalp, and today,
after over thirty-five years on
the market, they are growing
increasingly popular, and not
withstanding the fact that the
Company has always refused to
reduce the price on these goods,
they are still in demand every
where. ,
Mme. C. J. Walker’s Glossine,
although more than thirty-five
years on the market, is still the
leader in its field. The reason
for this is because it not only
serves as a scalp oil, but it gives
the hair that silky sheen and
natural gloss that is the delight
of every woman.
Mme. C. J. Walker’s Brown
Face Powder is not just another
Face Powder, but is the result of
years of experimenting to pro
duce the perfect blend to impart
a velvetlike softness and at the
same time cooling and refresh
ing. Just the thing for these hot
days.
The Mme. C. J. Walker’s won
derful preparations are sold by
Walker Beauticians and Drug
Stores everywhere, or you can
