Why the Sudden
Change to Liquid
Laxatives?
Doctors have always recognized tl
value of the laxative whose dose cs
be measured, and whose action ce
be thus regulated to suit individu
need.
The public, too, is fast returnii
to the use of liquid laxatives. Peop
have learned that a properly pr
pared liquid laxative brings a mo
natural movement without any d:
comfort at the time, or after.
The dose of a liquid laxative c:
be varied to suit the needs of t
individual. The action can thus
regulated. It forms no habit; y
need not take a “double dose” a d
or two later. Nor will a mild liqi
laxative irritate the kidneys.
The wrong cathartic may often
more harm than good.
Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is
prescription, and is perfectly sa
Its laxative action is based on sen
—a natural laxative. The bowels v
not become dependent on this fo:
of help. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pep:
is obtainable at all druggists.
Court To Decide
| Who Wrote Song
About “Old 97”
I Washington.—It is going to
| take the U. S. supreme court to
i decide who wrote "The Wreck of
the Old 97 which has made more
people cry into their beer than any
song except "Sweet Adeline.”
The court agreed to hear the
case of David Graves George of
Gretna, Va., who is suing the Vic
jtor Talking Machine Co., for roy
l aides on a record it made of the
i song. George says he wrote the
song to the tune of "The Ship that
Never Returned.’’
The Victor Co., contends the
song was written by Fred Lewey
and Charles Noell to the tune of
"The Parted Lovers.”
jMay Secure Food
From Oct. Garden
A number of vegetables can b.
planted in October and cultivate.]
through the winter so as to keep
I the family supplied with fresli
) green food at all times.
Kale, mustard, spinach, turnips
’ collards, and onions are some of
[the old stand-bys, says E. B. Mor
^row, extension horticulturist at
I [State College.
t ^ Kale gives a change from collat'd1
, and turnip greens, he said, anc
^ spinach can also be grown more ex
tensively than it has been in tin
past. He recommended Curler
» Scotch Kale, Southern Curler
Mustard for their attractive ap
pearance and edibility, althougl
they are not quite so hardy as sonu
of the other types,
a The storage of vegetables foi
- winter use is also important, Mor
row said. Sweet potatoes anr
! pumpkins keep best in a modern
II lately dry place at a temperatun
’.I-/" .1_*. C J aco r’rtnrli.
:s tions are best supplied in a sweci
- potatoe storage and curing house
r The potatoes must be dug befori
^ frost and handled carefully to avoic
^ bruises if they keep well.
* Cabbages, celery, beets, carrots
6 parsnips, turnips, and Irish pota
toes keep best at cool temperature
and in a moderately moist atmos
phere. Pitts, hills, and cellars af
ford good places to keep these
- crops. Morrow pointed out.
Onions and other bulbous crop:
ikeep best in cool temperatures anc
.a relatively dry atmosphere. Onion
keep best stored in slated crates ii
order to provide for better ventila
tion. The temperature should b
kept just above freezing when pos
cible, but never allowed to go be
low.

• jhas increased to 90 per cent of
;ithose reviewed since July 15, it was
-!reported at the eleventh biennial
- convention of the federation.
MNs. James Looram, chairman of
the federation’s motion picture
bureau, said she felt confident that
"if public interest in motion pic
Itures is sustained, we may be most
joptimistic about the future.”
I Since July 15, when increased
siauthority was given to the produc
' I tio.n code administration, the or
1 ganization’s preview committee
' has reviewed 160 pictures and in
- dorsed 90 per cent of them, the re
f port stated.
Before July 15, Mrs. Looram
s said, "too many loopholes for the
producer existed in the code en- j
forcement machinery.” She de-i’
dared that the censors of one com-j’
pany had sometimes passed favor- 1
ably on the doubtful productions
of others, in the hope that similar I
treatment would be given their
own. *
"Whenever a picture has been 1
rejected by our reviewers on moral 1
grounds the chairman has regis- :
tered a firm protest with the com- I
pany responsible and also with the '
Motion Picture Producers of A
merica,’’ the report asserted.
"In innumerable cases those pro
tests were recognized and changes 1
in name, titles and dialogue result-,'
ed. That some protests were in
vain was due to the fact that pub- j
lie opinion was not aroused.” I

Three Bars Of Gold Found
In Davidson County Creek
Lexington.—Stories of a mysteri
ous theft of a leather trunk filled
with gold bars mined in Davidson
county by Roswell A. King, an
English mining pioneer in this sec
tion, were revived here when it
was revealed that Made Lopp, 20.
of this city, had found three bar;
of what proved to be apparently
24 carat solicf gold in a sandbai
while squirrel hunting Saturday
morning.
Lopp reported that he was walk
ing along a small stream at a point
near Lexington which he decline;
to reveal when he saw the end oi
a bright metallic bar about hall
an inch square sticking out of th(
sand. He kicked the object anc
found the bar was! about foul
inches long. Surprised by its colot
and unusual weight he dug in th<
sand and found two other similat
bars. He brought them to th<
home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs
|H. I. Lopp, where the family spe
i culated on whether the find wai
! - -———
brass or a more precious substance.
! The father brought one of the
bars to a jeweler and it stood the
test for high grade gold. The
others were brought up and the
three weighed 3 3 troy ounces worth
at current prices over $1,000.
They were placed with a local
banking concern and insured for
$1,000, awaiting further develop
ments.
Older citizens here and descend
ants of the man involved recall the
story that prior to the war be
tween the states, Roswell A. King
came here from England and for
years mined gold in Davidson
county. This he melted into bars
and took them to a mint at . Phil
adelphia by stage coach. A small
leather trunk was used in convey
ing the gold.
There are none too many poets
in this country, but there is a large
surplus of those who think they
are.
