Once upon’ & time not so very long ago all the’ Bad -Fairies (you know there are bad“fairies as well as good fairies) decided they should have a king and royal family. If kings and ro families were bad things to have gurely that was jun what . they wanted. But it was yestion to determine who and the Strong were each sure ihny misery in the world 0l Finally it wha decided that fairy would be given more time to each prove his claims of causing the ‘most s0rrow in the world, and all went to work, vigorously so they might,” at the end of the time, choose the king. You know how frightfully the War Fairy is succeeding in making the world unhappy. But this story is es- pecially about the Impure Food Fairies. They said: “Now what shall we do, so many people are fighting us? They even drive us out of the eandy ‘where we used to have such a fine time making children sick.” Just 1k Falry appeared, better leave this 3 am sure I can cause more sorrow in the world than any. other bad fairy- I will put all my | little Nelpers' Dirt and Flies right to work. ‘We will go over the land and mark the homes of babies and little chil- dren where Careless Mothers will let us in.. Then we will' go to all the dairies where Careless Man is and put poison in the milk. Think of the thousands of sick babies and little children there will be. Mary will die, and\many others will never walk, liv- ing a life of misery, and every omne withabflwwlouvfllbelotfllht ened.” ich fairy in the end ' do . you think will choose the king? Every Litife Mother can successfully fight the Bad.

Re- | ,Keeps Her Children - In Perfect Healtb Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin | the Family jefor )| : Years, Mrs. Aug. Doellefeld of Carlyle, Ill., recently wrote to Dr. Caldwell, at Monticello, Ill., that she has used Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin in her home | for a number of years, and 'would not be without it, as with it she has been able to keep her four:children in per- fect Nealth. i Dr, Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is & combination of stmple laxative 'herbs ‘with pépsin that acts on the bowels in an easy, natural way, and, regulates the action of this ‘most = important function. Nearly all the sickness to which children are subject is traceable to bowel inaction, and a mild, depend- able laxative, such as Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsinishould have a place in every family medicine chest. It 'ls pleasant to the taste and children like it, and take it readily, -while it is equally effective for adults Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold in drug stores everywhere for fifty cents. & bottle. To- avold imitations and ineffective substitutes be sure you get Dr. Caldwell's @yrup Pepsin. See :onmmmmm Police Sergeants quby m in Handling Revolver.
