One of his best customers came into the shop that afternoon. He noticed the alligators and looked at them quite a long time. Then he said to the butcher: “I suppose a person might as well be dead as to be out of style. I’ve never eaten them before, but you can give me a couple of pounds of alligator. What’s the best way to cook ’em?” • No Use Trying “Won’t you take the sleeping pow der the doctor prescribed, Maria?” asked Mr. Meek. “Yes—but you won’t get the front door key,” replied his wife.

DON’T GIVE YOUR CHILD A “Bargain” Remedy You Don’t Know All About A child's life is beyond the price of pennies Ask ■ your Doctor before giving your child doubtful “bargain” remedies. No family need take this chance today. Wait. Think first. Are yqu absolutely sure you should give a single dose of that drug to your child? Internally! It was sold, you recall, as “some thing just as good”, for a few pennies less. A very dear purchase it could be! For your own peace of mind alone, give no home remedy you’re not quite certain about without getting your own doctor’s opinion. And never go against it. Even in the case of the common children’s remedy, milk of magne sia, ask your doctor what he ap proves. And when he says “Phillips* Milk of Magnesia” see that you get exactly that by asking expressly for “Phillips’ ” when you buy...never ask for just “milk of magnesia”. If your child prefers Phillips) in the newer form—tiny peppermint- flavored tablets, give it this way. But whether you get liquid Phillips’ or Phillips’ Tablets get the genuine Phillips’.Look for the name , •Phillips , MUk of Magnesia” on bottle or box.
