For several months French boys were reported missing from their homes and from public orphanages. Investigation disclosed that most of these boys, ranging In uges usually from ten to fifteen, were the mascots of units of American soldiers, They were fouhd, comfortably established in American barracks, Mving with the soldiers and recelving the considera- tion and regalement which befits the official mascot of a company of “les Americanes.” The practice started when a few units aunexed homeless French boys who happened around their camp. But the life was too at- tractive to be confined to the home less, and other French youths, living with thelr parents or provided for in orphanages, deserted these homes to become American soldiers’ proteges. At one aviation instruction center ten boys were found, each supported by an aviation squadron, which, by way of tailor-made uniforms and other means, was trying to outdo the other in caring for thelr mascot. Most of these boys were going to school but—they were smoking cigarettes, and the kind of English they were learning wasn’t of the parlor variety. General Pershing issued an order prohibiting the “adoption” of more boys and requiring that all those be- ing maintained as mascots be returned to their homes. ‘o INSIGNIA, CURTAINS, MADE FROM SKIRTS v to 14.25. 75.

Its Family Laxative From the baby to the grandparentc a good laxative is the necessary medicine in the little ills. It wards off serious sickness and saves doctor's bills. Many a cold has been pre- vented from running into grippe and pneumonia by itetimely use. Many a racking headache has been quickly dispelled by it, Andit is a laxative rather than a drastic cathartic or purgative that should be in every family medicine-chest, for a laxative can be used at all ages. r “Thousands of good American families have for more than a quarter century used a combination of simple laxative herba with pepsin known to druggists as’Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It is a laxative-tonic that acts on the bowels and stomach. Infants take it with perfect safety, and it is equally effective for grownups. io Grandparents are now seeirig their children give it to their babies. It is excellent for all the family in constipation no matter how chronic, indigestion, wind colic, biliousness, headaches, dyspepsia and similar ills.
