That's the point—"What d'ye KNOW?"
To-day it's a battle of wits—and brains win
Muscle and brawn don't count so much as they used to.
In the fight for good jobs and big salaries it's brains

one great question that draws the line between defeat

Aunt Este's Stories Por Children
For all the dear little children wh6 love to decorate the
graves of the heroes of the Civil War—and of all loved ones, on
Memorial Day, this little store Is written. So listen, my dears, to
THE STORY WHICH QCKKN MOON UK Aim
Once upon a time on a bright, bright night Queen Moon was
taking a ride across the deep blue heavens. Beside her rode the
little baby star, whom she loved best of all. Following her were
millions of little stars, bearing her moonbeam train of silver
light—for you must know she was the shining one of the night.
So she went riding through the deep blue heavens, looking for
the most Interesting thing she could find on the earthland—for it
"was In watching the earthland she found her entertainment.
At last she stopped and with her stopped the baby star
whom she loved the best, and the millions of little stars, bear
ing her moonbeam train.
"Look beneatli us, dear baby star," said Queen Moon. "What
are those gleaming white stones you sec on yon carpet of green,
and before each wnite stone what mean those groups of flowers?
Methinks I have never seen such a collection of beautiful flowers
all at one place."
"Oh, yes. Queen Moon," answered the little baby star—
(although she was a baby star, she was very old—thousands of
years). "Don't you remember, it is just about this time every
year, when we gaze down on the Nqrthern Places of the great
Western Hemisphere, that we see nil those beautiful flowers
gathered together around and about the great whit* stones on
the green carpeted hillside. It seem to me we heard it breathed
by the breezes last year that It was because of something called
Memorial Day."
"Oh, yes, dear baby star," answered Queen Moon, "you are
right. And as the air is beautifully clear to-night, and sound
travels well, let us lean our ears earthward and listen, perchance
we can hear more of what it all means."
And so it happened that Queen Moon and the little star baby
and the million of train bearers heard this tale as Geranium
told It to the host of flower friends who were gathered together
on the green hillside 'round about the great white stones.
"You ask me for a story, dear flower friends," said Geranium,
in accents sweet and low. "You ask me why we are all gathered
here to-night? You ask mo why we have been plucked from our
home nnd kept so carefully, and then brought out here so that
the dew may wash our faces, and the moon make us purer and
\ sweeter, so that on the morning of the morrow we may be mole
beautiful than ever before. Listen, dear flowers, and you shall
hear.
"Fifty years ago. dear ones, this henutiful country you love
so well was going through a great and horrible war. Ah! well
do I remember my Grandmother Geranium telling of It all. There
was lighting and horror and bloodshed and death yoa, even

although we do not like to tfilnk of it, many brave men had to
give up their lives for the sake of liberty and right in this won
derful country in which we live. There were br*fe men on both

last was won the people who honored the great men who had
fought and won and fought rind lost, made up their minds there
shouhl be a day In every May set nside to make beautiful the places
where th< dear heroes were burled. And what would be chosen to
make those places beautiful, but the things God and the children

our beauty and smell our fragrance," said the Hoses and Sweet
Peas and all the rest.
"My dears," said Geranium, "you have all spoken nobly. If
you do your best to brighten the lives of the living who come
to honor the dead—whether soldiers or friends, or loved ones of

your eyes and sleep, so that you may wake fresh for you work

The New Baby
- is World's Wonder
Every tiny Infant makes life's per
spective wider and brighter. And what
ever there is to enhance Its arrival and
to ease and comfort the expectant mother
should be given attention. Among tha
real helpful things is an external ab
dominal application known as "Mother's
Friend." There Is scaroely a community
but what has Its enthusiastic admirer of
this splendid embrocation. It is so well
thought of by women who know that most
drug stores throughout the United States
carry "Mother's Friend" as one of their
staple and reliable remedies. It is applied
to the abdominal muscles to relieve the
strain on ligaments and tendons.
Those who have used It refer to the
ease and comfort experienced during the
period of expectancy; they particularly
refer to the absence of nausea, often so
prevalent as a result of the natural
expansion. In a little book are described
more fully the many reasons why
"Mother's Friend" has been a friend
indeed to women with timely hints, sug
gestions and helps for ready reference. It
should be In all'homes. "Mother's! Friend"
may be had of almost any druggist, but If *
you fall to find It write us direct and also
write for book to Bradfleld Regulator Co..
