    CHILDREN HATt
PILLS, CALOMEL
AND CASTOR OIL
Give Fruit Laxative when cross,
bilious, feverish or
constipated.
"California Syrup of Figs" can't
harm tender stomach,
liver, bowels.
I.oolc back at your childhood <lny3.
Remember the "dose" mother insisted
on—castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you foutrht
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don't realize wliat they
do. The children's revolt is well
founded. Their tender little "insid "
are injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious "California Syrup of Figs." Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
<>f mothers keep this harmless "fruit
laxative" handy; they know chilcir n
love to take it; that it never fails to
clear, the liver and bowels and sweeten
the stomach, and that a teaspoonful
given to-day saves a sick child to
morrow.
Asi; your druggist for a 50-cent bot
tle of "California Syrup of Figs,"
which has full directions for babies,
children of all ages and for grown
ups plainly on each bottle. Beware
of counterfeits sold here. See that it
is made by "California Fig Syrup
Company." Refuse any other kind
with contempt.—Advertisement.
Try This If You
Have Dandruff
There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de
stroys it entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces of plain, ordinary
liquid arvon: apply it at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the
linger tips.
By morning, most if not all. of your
dandruff will lie none, and three or
lour more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy everj
single sign and trace ol it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will tind, too. that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will lie Huffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive, and four
>unees is all you will need. This simple
remedy has never been known to fall.
What to Do For
Itching Skins
Eczema, ringworm and other Itch- i
ing, burning skin eruptions are so
easily made worse by Improper treat- I
ment, that one has
to be very careful.
There is one method,
however, that you ft®
need not hesitate to
use. even on a baby's ft \\
tender skin—that is, CjjL \ \ «\
the resinol treat- 1 l l
ment. Resinol is the \y / I
prescription of a \ f / J
Baltimore doctor, \ yv
put up in the form VX V
of resinol ointment and resinol soap.
This proved so remarkably success
ful, that thousands of other physi
cians have prescribed it constantly for
over S!0 years.
Resinol usually stops etching in- ,
stantly, healing the eruption quickly,
unless due to some serious internal
disorder. Resinol ointment and resi- 1
nol soap can be boxight at any drug- i
gist's, and are not at all expensive.

A Novel |

George Agnew Chamberlain i
(Copvright by the Century Co.)
*
Gerry looked at the Barbadian's
rather shabby clothes. "Why don't
you sell If you don't want to work tin
place? It's worth money. 1 know
enough to tell you that."
The Barbadian rested one hand high
on the thick trunk of a wistaria. A
slow smile drew the corners of his
mouth. "Worth money?" he echoed.
"My boy, not every man kills the thing
that he loves best. This is my houie.
You read those dates written in dust
and still you thought my home was
dead. But is isn't dead. I haven't
killed the thing that I love best. You
can get cash, comfort and cool drinks
almost anywhere, but I have remem
bered that memories travel only beat
en paths."
Even as Gerry pickrd his way back
to the waiting cab he felt Red Hill
reaching out for him, drawing him.
And during the long, slow diive to the
quay he leerned that he had passed the
crossroads that had given so long a
pause to his troubled soul. The Bar
badian had opened his eyes. Doubt
left him. There was but one road —the
road back—and it was open. He wrote
his cable to Allx with a firm baud.
The freighter reached quarantine
aft • a quiet voyage twelve hours
ahead of time and just at sundown.
A tug hurried down the bay to toll
them their berth was not ready. The
freighter was forced to anchor at the
mouth of the narrows. Gerry watched
the lights spring out from the shadowy
shores. They beckoned him to familiar
scenes. Staten Island had been to bis
boyhood an undiscovered land and the
scene of his first wanderings. Buy
shore he knew through constant pass
ing by. In the sky beyond it. hung Hie
glow of the summer city, here and
there pierced with the brighter ti.une
of some grotesque monstrosity.
Up the bay the dark waters forked
into two bands that lost themselves is
a sea and sky of twinkling lights. H<
could just determine the sweeping arch
of Brooklyn bridge nnd the presence of
more than one new Tower of Babel
that broke the ever-changing skyline
of his native city and made him feel,
by that much, forgotten and nn alien.
But from all the myriad lesser lights
his eyes turned gratefully to the high
held torch of Liberty. Beneath it, the
familiar, tilted diadem, the shadowy
folds draping the up-standing pose,
the strength and steadfastness and the
titanic grandeur of the statue, carried
their message to him as never before.
It became to him what its creator had
conceived, an emblem, and the myriad
little waves of the bay, rushing to fling
themselves at the feet of the goddess
became a multitude, eager for attain
ment, ready for sacrifice.
It was ten o'clock on a morning in
early autumn when Gerry finally got
free of the freighter and took the ferry
for the other side of the river. He hail
left all his baggage to be delivered at
the house later. The morning wa«
clear but sultry. In the city the apathy
of summer days had settled down.
People glanced at Gerry's heavy
tweeds and antiquated hat but they
did not smile, for Gerry himself was
such a sight as makes men forget
clothes. The tan of his lean face, the
swing of his big. unpadded shoulders,
his clear eyes, carried the thoughts of
passers-by away from clothes and city
things. They seemed to catch a breath
of spicy winds from the worn garments
that clung to the stranger's virile body
and in his eyes they saw a mirage of
far-away places.
As G rry reached his own house,

Gompers Denies That

With Living Expenses
By Associated Press
Washington, 1). C„ April 12.
President Gompers, of the American
Federation of Labor, denied to-day
before a House committee that living
expenses have increased fifteen per
cent, in the United States during the
last ten years while wages had not
advanced proportionately.
"In twelve years," he said, "wages,
hours of employment and conditions
of labor have improved in the United
States beyond any other period of any
people in the history of the world.
The price tr?nd of essentials since
1870 has been downward. We have
enlarged what we called essentials of
life in the last 30 years so that there
is no comparison."
