metaphores mixed up, closed his
argument in a trover case as fol
lows:
*‘And now gentlemen of the

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

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.

G. M. 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.

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.”

(Released by Western Newspaper Union.)
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.
