MOTHER LOVE IS
SON IN TRENCHES
It Brings Belief TD Boy Standing
His Watch Deep In
Mud.
Once upon a time, only .1 few
month* alter tills terrible world war
had begun, Private Bailey, a solider
in the ranks had stood for days in
the trenches "somewhere in France."
The cold rains soaked him to the skin;
the mud was deep. He had had no
rest- Weary and aching with rheuma
tic he recalled the faith his
mother had in Sloan's Liniment. He
asked for it in his nexr letter home.
A large bottle was immediately sent
him and a few applications killed the
pain, once more he was able to stand
the severe exposure. He shared this
wonderful muscle-soother with his \
comrades, and they all agreed it was j
the greatest "reinforcement" that had (
ever come to their rescue. At your i

<luicL Relief
Many cases of immediate relief and
rapid recovery from Bronchial Asthma
of long: standing and other diseases of
throat and lung's are being credited to
a discovery made by Dr. Kugene How
ard of Worcester, Mass. lr. Howard's
prescription, which is totally different
from all usual methods of treatment for
theM afflictions, is called Oxidase and
comes in the foi m of a t a blet whjich
the patient allows to dissolve nlowly
in the mouth. Its curative. Healing
juices thus mingle with the saliva
and enter ever:* crevice of the irritat
ed bronchial nfeiribranes, release the
muscular constriction of the bronchial
tubes, open up the air pAssages and
regulate the spasmodic lnng action.
These tableW, though pleasant to the
taste, are so powerful and rapid in
tlieir • action that many users who for
years were obliged to sit up in bed
gasping for breath and unable to sleep
report that they now put a single
Oxidaze tablet in their mouth when
going to bed and can then lie down
ami breathe easily and naturally and
get a good night's restful sleep.
Am Gotgas and many other local drug
gists who handle Oxidaze tablets sell
it on the positive guarantee of money
back if it does not give immediate
relief.
HOW I TOOK MY
WRINKLES OUT
After Facial Cream* And
Beauty l)oet*ir* Had Fulled.
By Winifred Grace Forrest.
Trouble, worry and 111-health brought i
mo (Jeep lines and wrinkles. 1 real- j
lzed that they not only greatly marred :
my appearance and made me look i
murli older, hut that they would great- j
ly interfere with my success because a
woman's success, either socially or fin- '
ancially, depends very largely on her j
appearance, The honusly woman, with
deep lines and furrows in her face,
tight an unequal battle with her
and better looking sister. I
therefore, bought various brands of
cold creams and skin foods and mass
aged my face with most constant regu
larity. lioping to regain my former ap
pearance. But the wrinkles simply
would not go. On the contrary they
seemed to wet deeper. Next I went to |
a Beauty Specialist who told me she j
could easily rid me of my wrinkles. I
paid my money and took the treatment, j
Sometimes 1 though they got luss, |
but after spending all the money 1 j
could afford for such treatment 1 found
1 still had my wrinkles. So 1 gave tip j
in despair and concluded 1 must carry (
them to my grave. One day a friend I
who had travelled extensively in j
in France told me of an old French '
Beauty* Secret which I tried with most 1
astonisTnng results. At last I felt that I
1 was on the right track. I kept on
with the treatment following the sim- ;
pie instructions and in a few nights my
wrinkles were entirely gone.
Naturally I was over-joyed with my i
experiment and 1 want everyone to ,
know how to obtain the same happy j
results, 1 have already given It to !
many of my Immediate friends and lo' i
tin y have obtained the same remark- ,
able transformation. The process con- I
slsts of laying a warm cloth on the face I
each night for about half a minute and j
then when the cloth is removed a little \
ordinary unionized cocoa cream is up- I
plied over the entire face and neck. I
This Is left on for about two minutes |
and then what has not been absorbed
by the skin is wiped off with a soft
dry cloth. Not more than live minutes
is required for this simple operation.
Vet one treatment will show you most
astonishing results. No word short of
"Marvellous" can explain how young
and fresh this will make a woman look.
1 am sure that any lady with wrinkles
can easily make herself look from 10
to 20 years younger. Any good drug
gist can supply you with pure uni
onized cocoa cream and it is so easy to
apply that you cannot help but won
der at It;, remarkable action. These
treatments are also line for the com
plexion as they nourish the skin keep
ing It fair, pink and healthy. Kvery
woman who wants toloolc young, fresh
and charming should by all means give
tills treatment a trial.
How to Get Rid of Catarrh,
Catarrhal Deafness or
Head Noises
If you have catarrh, catarrhal deaf
ness or head noises caused by catarrh,
or if phlegm drops in your throat and
has! caused catarrh of the stomach or
bowels you will be glad to know that
these distressing symptoms can be
entirely overcome In many instances
by the foljowing treatment which you ;
ean easily prepare in your own home i
at little cost. Secure from your drug- I
gist 1 ounce of Parmint (Double j
Strength). This will not cost you '
more than 75c. Take this home and
add to it Vi pint of hot water and I
ounces of granulated sugar: stir until
dissolved. Take one tablespoonful
four times a day. A decided improve
ment is sometimes noted after the first
day's treatment. Breathing becomes
easy, while the distressing head noises, !
headache, dullness cloudy thinking etc. j
gradually disappear under the tonic I
action of the treatment. Loss of smell,
taste, defective hearing and mucus
mopping in the back of the throat are
other symptoms which suggest the
presence of catarrh anil which are often
overcome by this efficacious treatment.
■Nearly ninety per cent, of all ear
troubles are said to bo directly caused
by catarrh, therefore, there must be
many people whose hearing can be
restored by tills simple home treatment.

j "Save your compliments: Mr. Mey
j rick, my partner is now at the Mail
| office destroying today's issue of the
Mail. We've already ruined the first
I page form, the cut of the policy and
I the negative. And we're going north
\as fast as the I.ord will let us. You
| can do what you please. Arrest our
J little lemoti tinted employer If you
want to."
Spencer Meyrick stood, considering.
"However, I've done you a favor,"
O'Neill went on. "You can do me one.
I I.et Mannel off—on one condition."
| "Name It."
I "That he hands me nt once S2OO,
SIOO for myself, the other for my part
ner. It's legitimate salary money due
us. "VYe need it. A long walk to New \
York."
"I myself"— began Meyrick.
"Don't want your money," said
O'Neill; "want Gonzale's."
"Gonzalc's you shall have," agreed
Meyrick. "Yoti pay him!"
"Never!" cried the Spaniard,
"Then It's the police," hinted O'Neill.
Gonzale took two yellow bills from a
wallet. He tossed them at O'Neill.
"There, you cur"—
"Careful," cried O'Neill, "or 111
punch you yet!"
lie started forward, bnt Gonzale
hastily withdrew. O'Neill and the
millionaire followed to the street.
"Well, my boy," answered Spencer j
Meyrick, "if I can ever do anything
for you In New York come and see
me."
"You may have to make good on
that," laughed O'Neill, and they parted.
O'Neill hastened to the Mail office,
lie waved yellow bills before the lanky
Ilowe.
"In the nick of time," he cried. "Me,
: the fair haired hero. And here's the
! fare, Harry—the good old railroad
I fare."
; "Heaven be praised," said nowe.
; "I've finished the job, Bob. Not a
trace of this morning's Issue left.. The
fare! North in parlor cars! My to
bacco heart sings. Can't you hear the
elevated"—
"Music, Harry, music."
"And the newsboys on Park row"—
"Caruso can't touch them. Where
can we find a time table, I wonder?"
Meanwhile. In a corner of the plaza,
Manuel Gonzale spoko sad words in |
the ear of Martin Wall.
"It's the jinx," moaned Wall, with
conviction. "The star player in every- I
thing I do down here. I'm going to '
burn the sand hotfooting It away. |
But whither. Manuel, whither?"
"In Porto Rico," replied Gonzale, "I j
have not yet plied my trade. I go i
there."
"Palm Beach," sighed Wall, "has dia
monds that can be observed to spar- j
kle as far away as the New York so- !
elety columns. But, alas, I lack the !
wherewithal to support me In the style
to which my victims are accustomed." i
"Try I'orto Rico," suggested Gonzale.
"The air is mild—so are the police. I j
will stake you."
"Thanks. Porto Rico it is. How the |
devil do we get there?"
Up the main avenue of San Marco j
Spencer Meyrick walked as a man go- j
ing to avenge. With every determined !
■<tep h!s face grew redder, his eye more I
dangerous. He looked at his watch, j
Eleven.
The eleventh hour! But much might I
happen between the eleventh hour and ]
high noon.
In the Harrowby suit the holder of j
the title, a handsome and distinguish- j
cd figure, adorned for his wedding, I
wnlkod nervously the rather worn car- j
pet. His brother, hastily pressed into j
service as best man, sat puffing at a !
?lgar with a persistency which indl- !
rated a somewhat perturbed state of
mind on his own part.
"Brace up, Alli!?i,' lie .irged. "It'll
be before you realize it. Uemetn- |
ber my own wedding. Gad, wasn't I
frightened? Always that way with a
mun. No sense to it, but lie just can't
help it. Never forget that little par
lor, with the flower of Marlon society '
all about, and me with my teeth chat
tering and my knees knocking to
gether."
"It is a bit of an ordeal," suld Allan
weakly.. "Chap feels ail sort of—gone
—inside"—
The telephone, ringing sharply, inter- j
rupted. George Harrowby rose and j
stepped to it.
"Allan? You wish Allan? Very well.
I'll tell him."
Ho turned away from the telephone i
and faced his brother.
"It was old Meyrick, kid. Seemed
somewhat hot under the collar. Wants
to see you in their suit at once."
"What—what do you Imagine he |
wants?"
"Going to make you a present of
Rlversido drive, I fancy. Go ahead,
boy. I'll wait for you here."
Allan Harrowby went out, along the
dusky corridor to the Meyrick door.
Not without misgivings, ho knocked. A
voice boomed, "Come!" He pushed I
open the door.
He saw Spencer Meyrick sitting pur
pie at a table and beside hlui Cynthia i
Meyrick In the loveliest gown of all |
the lovely gowns sho had ever worn.
The beauty of the girl staggeri A'flar
rowby u bit. Never demonstrative, he
had a sudden feeling thut ho should
be at her feet,
"You—you sent for me?" he asked,
coming into the room. As be moved
closer to the girl he was to marry he
saw that her face was whiter than her
j gown and her brown eyes strained and
i miserable.
"We did," sakl Meyrick, rising. He
held out a paper. "Will you please
look at that?"
Ills lordship took the sheet In un
steady hands. Ho glanced down.
Slowly the meaning of the story that
met Ills gaze filtered through his dazed
brain. "Martin Wall did this," he
thought to himself. He tried to speak,
but could not. Dumbly he stared at
Spencer Meyrick.
"Wo want no scene, Harrowby,"
said the old man wearily. "We mere
ly want to know if there is in existence
| a policy such as the one mentioned
j here?"
i The paper slipped from his lordship's
J lifeless hands. He turned miserably
j away. Not daring to face either fa
ther or daughter, he answered very
faintly:
"There is."
Spencer Meyrick sighed.
"That's all we want to know. There
will be no wedding, Harrowby."
"Wha-wbat!" His lordship faced
about. "Why, sir* the guests must be
downstairs!"
"It is unfortunate, but there will be
] no wedding." The old man turned to
| his daughter. "Cynthia," he asked,
"have you nothing to say?"
"Yes." White, trembling, the girl
faced his lordship. "It seems, Allan,
that you have regarded our marriage
as a business proposition. You have
gambled on the stability of the mar
ket. Well, you win. I have changed
my mind. This is final. I shall nut
change it again."
"Cynthia!" And any who had con
sidered Lord Harrowby unfeeling
must have been surprised at the an
guish in Ills voice. "I have loved you—
I love you now. I adore you. What
can I say in explanation of this? We
| j
| "Cynthia," ho ssked, "have you nothing
to say?"
! gamble, ail of us. It is a passion breil
| in the family. That is why I took out
S this absurd policy. My dearest, it
j doesn't mean that there was no love
jon my side. There is—there always
j will be, whatever happens. Can't you
! understand"—
The girl laid her hand on his arm and
i Jlrew him away to the window.
"It's no use, Allan," she said, for Ills
.?ars nlone. "Perhaps I could have for
given, but somehow I don't care as 1
' thought I did. It is better, embar
rassing as It may be for us both, thuf.
there should be no wedding after all."
"Cynthia, you can't mean that. You
Jon't believe me. Let me send for m>
brother. He will tell you of the pas
sion for gambling in our family. He
; will tell you that 1 love you too."
! He moved toward the telephone.
"No use." said Cynthia Meyrick,
shaking her head. "It would only pro
long a painful scene, l'ieasi don't
Allan!"
"I'll send for Minot, too!" Harrowby
cried.
"Mr. Minot?" The girl's eyes nar
rowed. "And what has Mr. Minot to
| do with this?"
i "Everything. He came down here
;ns the representative of Boyd's, lie
catne down to make suJ that you
didn't change your mind. He will tell
you that I love you."
A ipieei' expression hovered about
Miss Meyrlek's lips- Spencer Meyrick
i Interrupted.
"Nonsense!" he cried. "There is no
j need !o"
"On- moment." Cynthia Meyrh?k>
I eves shone strangely. "Send for yg.ii
brother. Allan, and—for—Mr. Minot "

The New Life and Disability Contract jj
Many Life Insurance Conipanys ha,vc put disability clauses !;
in their policies, providing waiver of premium and in some ||
instances, allowing optional settlements. The Penn Mutual ;!
however, has made one more progressive step, by adding a ''
clause which, first waives the premium; second, pays 10 per j|
cent, of the face of the policy as an annuity, in monthly instal- !!
ments; third, pays the full face of the policy to the beneficiary !'
at death of insured, regardless of the length of time the insured 1|
was disabled.
