Miss Harvey gave an interesting lesson on what food will do for our bodies. The right food develops proper bone, muscle and growth, while the wrong food causes a per son to have a stunted body, weak bones and muscles. Score cards were given each member to keep for four weeks, of her food habits and selection of the right food. «Each member was measured and weighed and in four weeks we can determine the effect food has up on our bodies. * Delicious sandwiches, tea and cake were served by the hostesses. Mrs. Pearce Brown, a recent bride, was the recipient of many lovely and useful gifts in a mis cellaneous shoWer given by the club xpembers. 4 In a few words, Mrs. Brown thanked each one for the lovely spirit which prompted this, and assured us that she would get even more pleasure in using the gifts, as we did in giving them. • Our next meeting will be with 1 Mrs. Bruce Holloway, November 21, 1935.

Performance so unusual that it has won over 2,000,000 owners is bound to be talked about enthusiastically. But praise for past Ford V-8’s seems, almost mild beside what we hear from those who drive the 1936 Ford V-8. Sleek longer lines, distinctive new in teriors, evfcn greater handling ease and . safety—arc a few of the things that set this new car further than ever above its price class. Drive this new Ford as soon as you. can. Know for yourself what it means to* have Ford V-8 power and, handling ease, to ride in Ford safety and comfort..

Used in time—at the first sniffle, sneeze or nasal irritation —just a f ewdrops up each nostVil—Va-tro-nol helps to avoid many colds. Where irritation has led to a clogged-up nose (g stuffy head cold or nasal catarrh) Va-tro-nol spreads through the nasal passages—reduces swollen membranes—clears clogging mucus—brings comforting relief. A Practical Guide for Mothers Each year, more and more fam ilies are being helped to fewer colds, shorter colds and milder colds by fol lowing Vicks Plan for Better Control of Colds. Vicks Plan has been clini- ically tested by practicing physicians, and further proved in everyday home use throughout the country. Full details of the Plan come in each package of Vicks Va-tro-nol.

Shivering with chills one moment and burning with lever the next—that’s one of the effects of Malaria. Unlesa checked, the disease will do serious harm to your health. Malaria, a blood infection, calls for two things. First, destroying the In fection in the blood. Second, building pp the blood to overcome the effects of the disease and to fortify against further • attack. Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic supplies both these effects. It contains tasteless quinine, which kills the infection in the blood, and iron, which enriches and builds up the blood. Chills and fever soon stop and you are restored to health and comfort. For half a century, Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic has been sure relief for Malaria. It is just as useful, too, as a general tonic for old and young. Plexsant to take and absolutely harmless. Safe to give children. Get a bottle at any drug store. Now twt> sizes—SOc and $1. The $1 size contains lYs times as much as the SOc aize and gives you 25% more lot your money. ^ —Adv.

A liquid laxative is the answer, mothers. Thfe answer to all your worries over constipation. A liquid can be measured. The dose can be exactly suited to any age or need. Just reduce the dose each time, until the bowels are moving of their owe accord and need no help. This treatment will succeed with any child and with any adult. Doctors use liquid laxatives. Hospi tals use the liquid form. If it is best for their .use, it is best for home use. And today, there are fully a million families that will have no other kind in the house. The liquid laxative generally used is Dr. ..Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It is a doctor’s prescription, now so widely known that you can get it all ready for use at any drugstore. —Adv. Don’t Let The Hogs Scratch Off Gains CT EMSON, Nov. 2.—Ridding hogs of lice and mange is important be fore cold weather sets in, says W. C. Nettles, extension entomologist, ’ucgestinsr used * crank case oil Irained from automdbile engines, which is generally available, cheap, •afo. and effective. This remedy las been used to good effect by farmers in all ‘parts t>f the state: The hog louse obtains food by wneturing the skin of Its host and' ticking blood, Mr. Nettles explains. Manr-e is caused by mites which- ’.ause wounds in-the skins of af fected animals. Hogs irritated by these external parasites are leas*' thrifty than uninfested animals; Both mange; and lice are worse- where hogs “pile up” during the-' winter month's. Hence, It Is im- pc-‘ant that animals be treated' nr'vr if these parasites are. present. ^urther information regarding * tJ treatment and other effective' materials may be obtained from ti o county agents. 1X1 The Mississippi river, started - *8 9,276 a tributary to a large river in« 8,522 Minnesota 18,800 years ago, a gov— • 814'j ernment scientist reports.
