bright offspring, "I’ve decided to

Science and
the Home
jP AST, West, home’s the best.
" And our enjoyment of hom«
life certainly owes a lot to mod
ern science. Consider our mod
ern comforts. The radio which
entertains us, the newspaper
which keeps us informed. . . the
modern household appliances, and
the first aids and home remedies
standing by in our medicine cab
inets to help us in minor emer
gencies. All are achievements of
modern scientific research

HEADACHE
due to constipation
Relieve the cause of the trou
ble! Take purely vegetable Black-
Draught. That’s the sensible wav

Draught is truly refreshing. Try It!
Nothing to upset the stomach—Just
purely vegetable leaves and roots,
finely ground.

Time is a sort of river of pass-;
ing events, and strong in its cur-(
rent; no sooner is a thing brought
to'sight than it is swept by and
another takes its place, and this,
too, will be swept away.

bladder disturbance.
