T HE . woman who gives Iher
organs the right stimulant
need not Worry about growing old.
Her system doesn’t stagnate; her
face doesn’t age. She has the health
; and “pep” that come from a lively
liver 'and strong, active bowels.
When you’re sluggish and the
system needs help, don’t take a lot
of “patent medicines.” There’s a
jeps this standard preparation. It
is made from fresh laxative herbs,
active senna, and pure pepsin. Just
ask for Dr. Caldwell’s syrup pepsin.
Take a little every day or so, until
eveiy organ in your body feels the
big improvement.
The next time you have a bilious
headache, or feel all bound-up, take
this delicious syrup instead of the
usual cathartic. You’ll be rid of all
that poisonous waste, and you
haven’t weakened the bowels.You’ll
have a better appetite, and feel
better in every way. The constant
use of cathartics is often the c^use of
a sallow complexion and lines in the
face. And so unnecessary!
Would you like to break yourself
of the cathartic habit? At the same
time building health and vigor that
protects you from frequent sick
spells, headaches, and colds? Get a
big bottle of Dr. Caldwell’s syrup
pepsin today. Use often enough to
avoid those attacks of constipation.
When you feel weak and run-down
or a coated tongue or bad breath
warns you the bowels ne£d to be
stimulated. Give it to cnildren
instead of strong laxatives that sap
their strength. It isn’t expensive.

THE FORGO’tfTEN ANANIAS
Some years ago a chicken thief committed a series 6f robberies on
big estates outside New York. He got away with some very fancy
stock.
Finally, one of the gentleman farmers, whom we shall call Van Nort
on, hired a private detective and caught the miscreant.
Sitting in a New York club a few nights later, Van Norton received
the congratulations of his neighbors. “You did a fine thing,” they
said. “Now we hope you’ll send the rascal over the road for a good
Jong stretch.”
“What do you mean, send him over the road?” Van Norton asked.
“Why, prosecute him. Send him to jail.” f
“Prosecute him? I don’t intend to prosecute him.”
They were incredulous. * “Surely you’re going to see that 1^ is pun
ished for all the loss and worry he has caused us.”
“Just a minute,” Van Norton responded quietly. “Suppose I do prose
cute him. Suppose I get a conviction and a jail sentence. What will
happen? Ten years from now my name will be mentioned in a gather
ing such as this, and somebody will say vaguely, ‘Van Norton? Van
Norton? Let’s see. Wasn’t he mixed up in some chicken stealing
business a little while ago?’ ”
It is a curious fact of human nature that we forget the best in our
fellow men, while a single stain of scandal clings to our memories for
ever. v
If I were to mention to any reader of this newspaper the name
Judas, he would tell me immediately who Judas was. “He was the
treacherous apostle, the betrayer of his Lord.”
If I were to mention the name of Ananias, I should get a response al
most as prompt. “Ananias? Why, Ananias was the man who claimed
to have sold all his property and turned the proceeds over to the
apostles. But he held some of it back, and for telling that lie he was
struck dead. He was the prince of liars.”
But how many readers remember this story?
When the apostle Paul saw the vision by which he was converted, he
was divinely guided into Damascus to the house of a faithful disciple.
What was the disciple’s name? Judas.
Another disciple was sent to Paul to minister to his needs. What was
bis name? Ananias.
Everybody remembers Judas the betrayer and Ananias the liar. No
body remembers the other Judas and the other Ananias—quiet, unsel
fish men who aided Paul in his hour of need and helped to start him
on his great career.
A very wise and good friend of mine had a motto. Said he: “Every
fnan has a right to be judged by his best.”^
Will some psychologist explain why it is so hard for us to remember
the best? *
so easy to remember the worsts

Never See America—
New Yorkers are generally con
demned for sticking to the sea
board and never going west. A
young woman who has traveled all
over Europe and crossed the ocean
many times, recently remarked that
she had never passed a night in a
Pullman car.
Under questioning, she admited
she had never been more than a
couple of hundred miles away from
the city in this country; had never
been to California or even to
Chicago, and knew next to nothing
about her own country.
There are millions of New York
ers like her, even in these days of
fast travel, although the condition
is changing in recent years. The
writer lived here for seventeen
years before he ever got a hundred
miles away from the Atlantic
Ocean, although he had visited
nearly all of the coast cities.
Victorian Art—
A certain five-story building on
lower Lexington Avenue has the
most curious decorations that exist
on any building in the world. The
structure is built of brownstone
and, over each one of its sixteen
windows,'appears a head of one of
the earlier presidents.
The heads stand out from their
different niches and are remark
ably lifelike. One curious thing is
that the architect, or sculptor, had
his choice of about twenty-four
presidents when the building was
put up and he skipped around in
cluding Cleveland but leaving out
a lot of others.
Canal Boatmen—
Few visitors to New York ever
find one of the strangest colonies
here. The colony is one of canal
boats and their inhabitants. It is
located almost at the foot of the
i land and whole families live on
the boats, sending their children
u» school when they can, and hang
ing out the family washing on the
L ies, just like the ordinary dweller
does in the backyard.
Recently tug boats have put up
their charges so high that it costs
more to be towed back to the Erie
Canal than the money received for
freight, so many canal boats have
been tied up for two years at their
piers here, waiting for lower rates.
Meanwhile the families feel as
though they have become regular
residents.
One Big Slash—
Everybody knows that prices of
many things have come down but
the biggest shock we have received
in months came the other day
when we noted a truck carrying a
big sign through the Times Square
district saying “Penny-A-Dance.”
The movies have made us all ac
quainted with the Dime-A-Dance
establishments, where one can grab
a more or less charming partner
and amble about the room for a
few minutes but we are still curious
as to how long a cent will entitle
one to swing a girl around a dance
floor.
It’s worth more than that in shoe
leather alone.

1 eggs. Boil four of the eggs for fii - -

water, and when cool enough re
move the shells.
Now put on a frying pan with
plenty of fat. While it is heating,
divide the sausage meat into four
portions and cover each of the
eggs with a portion. Mould them
into oblongs with flat ends. Beat

grated rind, 4 teaspoons cinnamon,
