CLOSE STUDENTS OF NATURE Examination Papers Proved That Pu pils Must Have Made Keen Ob servations of Their Subjects. A nature study and biology teacher sent the Nature Study Review the following from her pupils' papers, re garding their observation and conclu sions in the domain of nature: "Organic matter is when you have something the matter with your or gans." "Five devices by which seeds are scattered are wind, water, explosion, torn up, taken out and thrown away." "The peculiars of an insect are some of them bring diseases, others destroy food, suck the blood, spoil the flowers, lay eggs and kill babies." "The grasshopper, when he walks, either jumps or hops." "The jaws of a grasshopper move east and west." "A larva is an unfinished animal." Total Eclipse. "After conferring with a few close friends Senator Snortsworthy has de cided not to sacrifice himself on the altar of his party." "As a presidential candidate?" "Yes." "But the senator doesn't seem to be liappy over his decision." "No. According to his point of view, It is better to be a sacrificial lamb and get a great deal of publicity than it is to be quietly ignored." Birming ham Age-Herald. Aspirin created a sensation when in troduced by Bayer over eighteen years ago. Physicians at once proved Its wonderful efficiency in the relief of pain. The genuine, world-famous As pirin, in "Bayer Tablets of Aspirin" is safely taken by millions for Colds, Headache,- Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Earache, Toothache, Aching Joints, Neuritis, and Pain generally. Be sure the "Bayer Cross," which is the mark of true "Bayer Tablets of Aspirin," is on each genuine package and each genuine tablet. Boxes of 12 tablets cost but a few cents and contain proper directions. Druggists also sell larger "Bayer" packages. Aspirin is the trade mark of Bayer Manufacture of Monoacetic acidester of Salicylicacid. Adv. LITTLE CHANGE IN PHYSIQUE Report That Average Stature of Amer ican Men Was Affected by War Declared Untrue. The wholesale clothing manufactur ers assert that there has not been any change in the size of their garments since the war. They are manufactur ing more garments, but the proportion of larger sizes is no greater now than it was three years ago. In short, their size patterns have not changed. Yet changes would be necessary if the stat ure of American men had been affect ed in any appreciable way by the year and a half or two years of military training. Manufacturers of ready-to-wear shirts and undergarments agree with the clothing manufacturers that there has been no change in their size pat terns despite the reports of numerous individuals who take "a size larger" today than they 'did before the war. As one manufacturer put it, the pro portion of soldiers who need larger sizes in shirts or suits today than they did two years ago is so small that it has no effect on wholesalers. Sales men naturally remember certain indi vidual cases of increased chest develop ment, but, taking the country by and large, there has been no appreciable change in the physique of the male portion of the population, at least as far as their clothing is concerned. Relic of Roman Occupation. Digging in Stepney, London, a workman unearthed a Roman burial urn containing human bones supposed 1 to be nearly two thousand years old. v a r Health and Economy Rule Your Table Cup when you make your meal-time beverage Jkstaii Bottom Its rich coffee-like flavor satisfies and its freedom from any harm fbl ingredient, such as the coffee drug caffeine, makes it a better drink for young and old There has been no raise in price and the high quality of Postum is always maintained The re s a Reason 99 Made by POSTUM CEREAL COMPAQ Battle Creek, Mich4 DEPUTY SHERIFF HAS SIEZED ' MORE THAN FIFTY STILLS IN LAST FEW WEEKS FOURTEEN DIVORCES GRANTED.

Owe Their Health To Lydia K Pinkham's Vegetable Compound overshadowing indeed is the success of this great medicine.

I read in the papers and books about Lydia E. Pinkham's Yege tabje Compound and decided to try it. The first few bottles gave me relief and I kept on using it until I got better and was able to do my work. The Vegetable Com pound also regulated my daughter when she was 15 years old. I can recommend V ege tabl e Compound as the best medicine I have ever used." Mrs. W. YERGER, R. 3, Box 21, Middleburg, Pa. Fall River, Mass.

I started it immediately and I felt better and could eat better after the first bottle, and I continued taking it for some time. Last year I gave birth to a baby boy and had a much easier time as I took the Vegetable Compoundf or four monthsbefore baby came.

The skin is fed from the blood, and upon the condition of the blood depends whether or not your skin will be healthy and free from boils, pimples, scaly irrita tionSj red eruptions and other dis figuring and unsightly disorders. The sensible treatment that will chow real results is a remedy that will cleanse the blood thoroughly and kill the germs that cause the trouble. And for this purpose no remedy ever made can approach the record of S. S. S. which cleanses the blood of the disease germs, at. the same time building up the general health.
