America’s trade with Russia in 1920 was $40,-! 000,000 — only a fifth less than in the nofmal year 1913. KISSES FOR DESSERT Kisses are like bon-bons steeped in the nectar of the gods—when served with proper accompani- ments. But kisses, served to a hungry man a la cold soup garnished with onions in vinegar and flanked by cold burnt muffins, are like dynamite with a short fuse already lighted. At any rate, that was the experience of a Den- ver bride of less than a year, who tried the ex- periment on her long-suffering. mate once too often. Harry came home that night very hungry. He sat down at the table and made a mush of cold soup and burnt muffins and an added bit of. onion for seagoning. Stifling his resentment, he in- quired about dessert. “Kisses for dessert, my dear,” replied Agnes. Whereupon, the explosion occurred. ’ When the police arrived, they found a badly battered couple under the debris of china and fur- niture. Agnes was unable to understand why husband did not appreciate her. kisses. Harry declared that 10 months of cold soup was more than his just dessert. i MORAL: To be sweet without cloying, kisses :must be the expression of a love that includes ser- vice. Married life is a proposition of give-and- take — the more you give, the less you have to take. ' Now that the spring baseball season is on, the window glass industry should return to normalcy. DO NOT KILL MOTHER GOOSE! ’ Blue laws threaten to exterminate that mighty institution, the rhymes of Mother Goose. These famous jingles, “teach no morals” and must be eliminated, says Katherine Blake at a convention of the National Educational Association: No morals? Oh, lady, lady! The “Mother Goose Rhymes, Chimes, and Jingles” embody all the philosophy. produced through the. ages by the intellect of man. Humpty-Dumpty sat on a wall Humpty-Dumpty had a great fall; All the king’s horses and all the king’s men Cannot put Humpty together again. Mr. Humpty-Dumpty is supposed to represent, one. Yet even “Doc” Will is a crude, raw clod| sai an egg. But does his. predicament not embody the philosophy of the downfall of kaisers, the col- the vaguest perception of beauty. lapse of day-dreams and illusions, the shattering of hopes by the taking of a false step? Poor Old Mother Hubbard found no bone in the country in his fi cupboard—and the moral is of improvidence, the 2nd of cours failure to provide for the futpre. Jack Spratt could eat no fat, His wife could eat no lean, And so, hetwit them both,‘you see, They licked ‘the platter clean. There are many morals to the troubles of the at beauty that he f Spratt family. Two of them: Marry your oppo- his yay. And so with the people he encounter site, to insure harmony.

BETTER THAN CALONEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets Are a Harmless Substitute Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and howel complaints with calomel. For 17 years he used these tablets (a vegetable compound mixed with olive oil) in his private practice with great success. They do all the good that calomel oes but have no bad after effects. No pains, no griping, no injury to the fums or danger from acid foods—yet they stimulate the liver and bowels. Take Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets when you feel “logy” and “heavy.” Note how they clear clouded brain and perk up the spirits, 15¢ and 30c a box. @ BISMARCK.
