HAS THE LAXATIVE IN
YOUR HOME A
DOCTOR'S APPROVAL?
Some things people do to help the
bowels whenever any bad breath,
feverishness, biliousness, or a
lack of appetite warn of constipa=
tion, really weaken these organs.
Only a doctor knows what will
cleanse the system without harm.
That is why the laxative in your
home should have the approval of
a family doctor,
The wonderful product, known to
millions as Dr, Caldwell’'s Syrup
Pepsin is a family doctor's pre-
scription for sluggish bowels. It
never varies from the original pre-
scription which Dr. Caldwell wrote
thousands of times in many years
of practice, and proved safe and
reliable for men, women and chil-
dren. It is made from herbs and
other pure ingredients, so it is
pleasant-tasting, and can form no
habit. You can buy this popular
laxative from all drugstores.
Says Cats Cure
According to Dr. E, Palier of the
French Academy of Medicine, cats pre-
vent pneumonia. He says every fam-
lly should keep at least one cat. He
thinks the day is not very far distant
when the practicing physician will
have to keep a cat farm, thus enabling
him to answer emergency calls with a
cat or two under his arm,

ONSTANCE was going abroad
because her mother considered
European travel the finishing
touch to a young girl's educa-
tion. As for the girl herself, she would
have preferred vastly a summer’ of
tennis and swimming, golf and long
gallops through the woods. More-
{ over, the European party was not to
her liking—a group of girls from her
boarding school chaperoned by a very
Victorian lady principal.
On the afternoon of the first day
out Constance stole away to the stern
of the ship. Across the white-capped
undulations of water she looked long-
| Ingly toward New York; yet it was
| hard to be thoroughly sad with the
{ tang of salt air In her mouth and a
| stormy June breeze whipping her
| cropped curls. Surely something
| would happen to make her days less
| tedious, For Constance something
| usually did.
The waves were making such nolse
as they sloshed against the sides of
the ship that Constance did not hear
some one approaching along the deck
{| and did not notice that a young man
stood by her side, and, like her, braced
his elbows upon the railing. It was
not until he spoke that turned
to behold a veritable Apollo come to
ride the sea with Father Neptune,
“I'm Richard Burlington—Princeton
'25—in search of Constance Talbott,
whose picture, that didn't half do her
Justice, for four years adorned the
bureau of her cousin, Jim Thayer”
the young man began with a grin that
was in itself introduction enough.
“Any chance of my finding her ap-

Constance matched the grin with a
smile that involved her lips, her eves
and merry little crinkles along the
bridge of her nose,
“Probably,” she encouraged, “since
you've approached the right girl at a
crucial time and In an excellent place.
| I'd have known you anywhere, Dick—

Jim's club group. Where're you go-

The youth shrugged

“Not In a party?” Constance
| quired sympathetically,
“In just that. And you?
“With Miss Tarkington.”
“Shake,” Dick Burlington exclaimed,
giving Constance’'s hand a brotherly
wring. “I know how you'll suffer.”
“What can we do about it?" Con.
stance implored, the corners of her
mouth and the bigness of her eyes
again pensive,
“Console each other on ship board
and then meet in Europe as often as
we can. Since we're both landing in
Naples, we can't miss each other
often. Beaten path, you know.”
“Oh, don't 17" sighed Constance,
folding her hands in St. Cecelia resig-
nation and casting heavenward those
eyes that matched the cerulean sky
above her. “Capri, Sorrento, Pompell,
Blue Grotto, Roma, Flesola, Firenzl,
Venice, Milan, Lugano—

Dick added In Constance's sing-song
rhythm. “Art galleries to the right of
us, churches to the left of us—"
“Guido, Angelo, Titian, Murillo,
Filippo,” Constance giggled, for the
first time amused at the sound of the
eloquently.

triumphantly happy as a hunter who
has treed his game. He led her out of
the crowded little room into the Ital-
fan sunshine that all at once seemed
to Constance to be casting about her
rays of molten gold.
“How have you lived through it?”
Dick fairly panted.
“I haven't,” Constance replied with

Put Twins to Death to

Superstitions relative to rainfall ap-
pear still to exist In remote parts of
the world. A story from South Africa,
related In Wide World Adventures,
tells how natives, following tribal law,
put to death two pairs of twins in or
der to bring rain during a prolonged
drought. The tale, which comes from
the province of Buluwayo, places the
guilt not on the parents, but specifical-
Iy on the mother-in-law of one of them

plow the fields, This is looked on as
a great hardship. For the beauties of

who work with their hands, So va.
rious subterfuges are resorted to hy

usually done by their servants, they
