Instructors are necessary. Without them there is small chance for prop- er arrangements to be made, in a city, for necessary amount of play for the child. Older heads are necessary to see that space and some equipment is provided. Innumerable reasons rec- ommend the employment of instruct- ors.

Pay no money to any person to as- certain information as to the location of any soldier grave in France. The War Department has issued a warnng to this effect, adding that a letter o the Quartermaster General, Washing- ton, will receive prompt and courteous attention. The action of the War Department in giving this warning is the result of a swindle perpetrated upon the mother of a soldier who died in France. The swindler called and said he could get information as to the lo- the soldier's if the mother would pay his expenses to Washington.

Baby Girl Wins 3 First Prizes Parents of Louisiana’s “Champion Baby” raised her on Dr. Cald- well’s Syrup Pepsin THERE is always a good deal of sickness in the summer months, dueto the bot weather. The heat is especially severe on babies and chil- dren, and often it interferes with their development and growth. They lose ap- petite, pass restless nights, suffer from indigestion, and finally constipation. In the hot Southern States mothers give a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, at the first symptom of constipation. This formula is known to druggists as Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. and they have sold it underthat name for a quarter of a century. Itis now the sole medicinal reliance in thodsands of families, Little Dorothy Boylan knows what real hot weather is ten months of the year. She is the daughter of Mr.’and Mrs. Harry H. Boylan, and lives at 216 North Alexander St., in New Orleans. She ‘bas won three successive first prizes as the “Grand Champion Baby of Louisiana.” and her parents say the only medicine they bave ever given her is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It has kept her healthy and built her up, and belped make it possible, they write, for Dorothy to be a prize-winning baby. ‘You can obtain a bottle of Dr. Cald- well’s Syrup Pepsin at any drug store.
