Pull the Trigger on Lazy Bowels, and Also Pepsin-ize Stomach! When constipation brings on acid indi gestion, bloating, dizzy spells, gas, coated tongue, sour taste, and bad breath, your stomach is probably loaded up with cer tain undigested food and your bowels don’t move. So you need both Pepsin to help break up fast that rich undigested food in your stomach, and Laxative Senna to pull the trigger on those lazy bowels. So be eure your laxative also contains Pepsin. Take Dr. Caldwell’s Laxative, because its Syrup Pepsin helps you gain that won derful stomach-relief, while the Laxative Senna moves your bowels. Tests prove the power of Pepsin to dissolve those lumps of undigested protein food which may linger inyourstomach, to cause belching, gastric acidity and nausea. This is how pepsin- izing your stomach helos relieve it of such distress. At the same time this medicine wakes up lazy nerves and muscles in your bowels to relieve your constipation. So see how much better you feel by taking the laxative that also puts Pepsin to work on that stomach discomfort, too. Even fin icky children love to taste this pleasant family laxative. Buy Dr. Caldwell’s Lax ative—Senna with Syrup Pepsin at your druggist today 1 The Half-Way Fool The fools and the wise are «qually harmless; it is the half wise and the half-foolish who are the most to be feared.—Goethe. How To Relieve Bronchitis Bronchitis, acute or chronic, la an inflammatory condition of the mu cous membranes lining the bronchial tubes. Creomulsion goes right to the seat of the trouble to loosen germ laden phlegm, increase secretion and aid nature to soothe and heal raw, tender, inflamed bronchial mucous membranes. Tell your druggist to sell you a bottle of Creomulsion with the understanding that you are to like the way it quickly allays the cough or you are to have your money back.

Pullman Pullman Cars TN 1858, George Mortimer Pull- 4 man spent $2,000 making over twc railroad day coaches so that people could sleep in them. When he fin ished they were still crude, heated by wood-burning stoves and lighted by candles—but they had the ar rangement of upper and lower berths characteristic of Pullman cars today. Those two were the first sleeping cars in the histo ry of railroading —and they were a success. Then, George Pullman (by the way, is that why they call Pullman porters “George’ ’ ? ) — anyway, George Pullman then spent $20,000 to build a sleeping car entirely from his own specifications. It was ex pensively decorated and luxurious besides being longer, higher, wider and heavier than any other railroad car. But just like the young man who built a boat in his basement and then couldn’t get it out a door or window, Pullman discovered that his big luxury car was too wide for station platforms and too high for bridges. For several years the car re mained idle, but when Abraham Lin coln was assassinated, railroad of ficials decided Pullman’s “palace car” should be attached to the fu neral train and bridges and plat forms were feverishly reconstructed along the way. The success of George Pullman’s sleeping car is now well known. He became one of the big “magnates” of Chicago. A whole town is named for him where the cars are made. But it is not so well known that the Pullman car of today was named for a man who became one of the most successful industrialists and rated among the richest men of his time, didn’t have foresight enough to build his first car according to di mensions that would allow it to be pulled along the right-of-way. • • * Mercerized W HEN you buy a shirt and the sales clerk tells you it is mer cerized, naturally, you are im pressed. But’ do you really know what it means? Mercerized cloth is cloth that has been treated by a process that was invented by John Mercer of Lanca shire, England, and patented back in 1851. And that process consists in dipping in a solution of caustic alkali, shrinking it and. tightening the fibers so that the cloth takes dyes more bril liantly and has a greater luster. There seems to be some mis understanding among the ex perts as to what brings about this luster. The 1929-32 edition of the Encyclopedia Brittani- ca says, “Considerable change in the appearance of the cross section of the cotton fiber is effected by mercerizing it. It is especially no ticeable that the fibers appear more rounded.” And here is what the 1919 edition of The Americana says: “. . . mercerizing gives a luster to the cotton cloth because its fibers are drawn closer and flattened, pre senting a smooth surface that re flects the light.” Maybe they got together since, but being that far apart, we are not go ing into the matter further. Flat or round, John Mercer of Lancashire invented the process almost 100 years ago. * * • Booze A BOOZE bottle is a booze bottle these days, but a hundred years ago it was a Booz bottle. E. C. Booz, h Philadelphia distiller, is the man they were named for. Back in 1840 he popularized the hip flask, selling his whiskey irr flat, semi-rounded bottles that could be carried easily in the pocket, a con venient innovation compared with the round bottles that had to re main home on a shelf. Then, to distin guish his own brand of liquor, he made all his bottles in unusual shapes and they became famous and were known by his name— Booz bottles. After he died his type of bottle was not continued but the phrase Booz bottle was kept up and gradu ally came to mean any whiskey bot tle and the contents soon was known as “Booz,” then as “booze.” There are several original Booz bottles still in existence in America today, mainly in the hands of col lectors. All of them, however, are empty. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) John Mercer A “Booz” Bottle Household Nfeuis IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY I chool Lesson By HAROLD L. LUNDOUIST. D.

SERVE THESE LIVER CROQUETTES WITH POTATO BALLS AND TOMATO SAUCE See Recipes Below Just Good Food In her own town and in her time. Aunt Edith was considered a good cook. When prizes were awarded for the best cakes at church fairs. Aunt Edith won her share of them. But she had her bad days, too, when this pie crust was soggy or that cake fell flat. Aunt Edith used to say, “Well, I had good luck with my baking today,” and sometimes she said, “I don’t know why, but my sponge cake isn’t near as nice as usual, this time.” Luck played quite a part in the success or failure of one’s cooking and baking, in those days! There isn’t any mystery about cooking and bak ing today; this “four-point plan” eliminates the el ement of chance, and insures uni form results, day after day: 1, test ed recipes; 2, accurate measure ments; 3, proper methods of mix ing ; 4, correct temperature for cook ing and baking. Reliable recipes and good ingre dients are available by the score. When you’ve found the ones you like, stick to them! Marked meas uring cups and spoons have done away with the old time “pinch” of this, and “smidgin” of that, and directions for mixing are a part of every tested recipe. Thermometers of every kind insure the proper tem perature for cooking and baking; thermometers for deep fat frying eliminate grease-soaked doughnuts or croquettes; there’ll be no sticky, runny frostings or candy that won’t “set,” when the cooking is done with candy thermometers; meat thermometers mean roasts that are cooked to just the right degree of “doneness”; and oven thermome ters are practically indispensable for the countless baking jobs in volved in feeding a family. You’ll find the recipes below meet the re quirements of the four-point plan. You’ll want to add them to your file of tested recipes for “Just Good Food.” Silver Cake.

The nations of the earth and their leaders are engaged in a struggle to determine which land and which leader is to be the greatest. They may attempt to conceal their real motive under a cloak of high-mind ed and well-sounding objectives, but essentially the reason for their struggle is the desire to be great. To them greatness means size, strength, wealth, and position. It means that also to the average man on the street. What a pity it is that such is the case and that such a vicious and erroneous philosophy of life has been permitted to make its way even into the Church. The world’s ideas of greatness are entirely opposite to God’s standards. God’s people ought to learn what His ideals of life are and to live in accordance with them even in an unbelieving world. Both they and the world would be astonished at the result. I. Dying for Others (vv. 17-19). _ With surprising clarity and* de tail the Lord Jesus once more re vealed to His disciples that He was on His way to Jerusalem to die and to arise again. It is well worth while to note that apart from divine foreknowledge and inspiration it would have been utterly impossible for Him to give these facts in such exact detail. The point we wish to stress is that the Son of God was steadfastly approaching the death of Calvary. He had no desire to live for self, to gratify His own wishes, to prolong His life, or to improve His position in the world. He had come to do but one thing, the will of God, even to the shameful death of the cross, there to bear your sins and mine. Let us give ourselves in loyal de votion to our dying and risen Lord. II. Living for Self (w. 20-24). Were it not written for us to read, we could hardly believe that the two disciples, James and John, who were so very neat to our Lord, and their mother, who was a woman of earnest faith and sacrificial service to God, would be guilty of such an expression of selfishness, especially in that sacred hour when He had spoken of His approaching death. Disregarding what Jesus had said about His sufferings, they apparent ly could think only of His coming glory, and in thinking of that they could only covet for themselves the chief places. What a strange mix ture of faith in Christ and an over whelming desire for self-glory! Perchance some of us have served Christ with a selfish desire for per sonal glory and position putting it self forward to influence our think ing and acting. Perhaps we do not see it in ourselves, but are like the other disciples who, seeing this hate ful thing in John and James, were repelled by it, even as we despise it in others. It may be that the dis ciples were only angry because they had not thought to make the request for themselves. III. Finding True Greatness (w. 25-28). “Rulers,” “greatness,” “exercise authority” — how modern these words from verse 25 sound! They epitomize the ambitions of the great majority of mankind today. Few indeed are those in the world who see the way to true greatness as that of the lowly Jesus. In every in stance where they do rightly ap prehend and live out this truth, one is satisfied that somewhere in their experience they have come to know His principles of life even though they do not know Him. Only in Him is such an attitude toward life to be found. To be great one is to serve in the spirit of humility and self-sacrifice. This is the command of Christ. Even in the Church there are not too many who have heeded that word. If there were more of this spirit we woud have less church quarrels, for essentially they root back to the desire for greatness. We may not admit that fact, but it is none the less true. One wonders how great some of the pillars of the Church would look measured agains'i. the standard of verses 26 to 28. One wonders too how many of the humble workers of the Church realize their true great ness. Such greatness of heart is great simply because it does not so regard itself.
