Whats What
By HELEN DECIE
Notwithstanding all the jokes on
the subject in the "funny papers,"
every one, even in the remote back
woods, seems to understand that pie
should not be eaten with a knife or
a spoon, but with the fork provided
for the purpose. It is when half a
dozen different forks are arranged
beside the plate at a formal dinner
that the social neophyte is some
times at a loss to know which to
use for each of the courses served.
The newly rich are apt to overdo in
silverware. One such hostess ad
dressing a distinguished savant
among herdinner guests, said, "I
hope you have all the forks you need,
professor?"
To which that scholarly exponent
of plain living and high thinking re
plied as courteously as he could,
"Thank you; I think there is every
sort of fork at my plate excepting
a pitchfork 1",
A safe rule is to take the fork at
the outside Jot the first course, the
next one fo"r the succeeding course,
and so on. Well-trained servants
generally place the forks in the or
der of use. .

Quaker Minister Is
Grateful to Tanlac
0f "
Rev. Parker Moon,
Nearly everybody in Southwest
Missouri either knows or has heard
of the Rev. Parker Moon, who for
a full half century has devoted his
life and talents to Sunday school
and organization work for the So
ciety of Friends' or Quakers. He
resides at 628 Howard avenue,
Carthage, Mo.
"Uncle Parker," as he is more
familiarly known, came from fine
old rugged Quaker stock, and there
is not a better known or more high
ly respected citizen in that part of
the state. In referring to his re
markable restoration to health by
Tanlac, he said:
"About five years ago I suffered
a general breakdown. My principal
trouble was nervous indigestion. My
appetite was very poor and my food
seldom agreed with me, and I had
to live on a very restricted diet. I
suffered a great deal from headaches
and dizzy spells; I had severe pains
across the small of my back and
was badly constipated most of the
time. In fact, I was so weak and
rundown I was not able to attend
to my duties.
"This condition made me very
nervous and 1 could not sleep at
night Frequently I would lie awake
most all night and was in that con
dition more or less for five years.
My physician said he could not do
anything for me and .suggested a
change of climate. I then moved
to Texas and went back and forth
three times but did not set th re

The leaden commences with the

spell the name of a bird beginning
with "L," say "1-a-r-k." The third
one must have a "K," cay "ki-n-g."
The word bird may be left off the

lief I had hoped for. Finally, I got
so bad off I was not able to get
around with any degree of comfort.
I was also told I had heart trouble.
"1 had read about Tanlac and, as
it bad been very highly recom
mended to me, I decided to try it.
I got a bottle and had taken only a
few doses until I could notice a
marked improvement in my condi
tion. I noticed especially that I
was not troubled any more with
sour stomach after eating, which
was a great relief.
' "I kept on taking Tanlac until I
fully regained my health. My appe
tite is splendid; I enjoy my meals
and I do not find it necessary now
to take any laxative medicines of
any kind. I can sleep much better
and a: 1 not nearly so nervous.
"I tJ. . -r?at pleasure in recom
mending i..:::ac to anyone who
needs a good system builder, or
who suffers with stomach -trouble.
I have recommended Tanlac to a
great many of my friends and am
pleased to reach others by giving
this statement for publication."

Doty II, To be quite frank with
you, your letter sounds as though
you are pretty much interested in
boys. That is not so necessarily
bad, but when, you do things your
parents do not like, i begin to sus
pect that you are not using good
Judgment in your choice of. friends.
Better , listen to mother and- futher.
They are your very best friends.
PROSPERITY
; Now then! Let every brain and hand utilize
every atom of energy, every constructive
thought, every helpful suggestion that will fur
nish, more power to the business motor.
; There is no soft-handed way to universal pros
perity, one cannot si idly by and let the other
fellow do it. He is apt to wait for you to lead
the way. But, if all of us constitute ourselves
-leaders. and show the way, then the question
is solved.
Every business whiner should be ostracized,
the grouch banished and new inspiration given
to those who are discouraged.
