BIBLE THOUGHT
FOR TODAY
J Bible Thoughts memorized, will prove a m
priceless heritage in after years.
WHAT IS PURE RELIGION?:—
Pure religion ami undefiled before
God and Father is this: To visit
the fatherless and widows in their i
affliction, and to keep himself un
spotted from the world.
PRAYER:—Father, show us the j
spiritual grandeur of true Christiani
ty. Cause us to realize that “Faith
without works js dead.’
WALKING IS THE
BEST SPRING TONIC
Walking some every day has bee:
prescribed as a preventive of “spring
fever.” But this does not mean walk,
ing ;n or about the house, or standing j
on the feet while at work. It mean- j
sunshine, relaxing mind and body.,
leaving cares behind, and enjoying
walking for the good it does.
Most peop'e are suffering, as spring
comes cn, from the bad effects of tor
high temperatures and too much in
door living during thc ’winter. Bu
“ drugs, pil's and purgatives are no.
needed. They do more harm than good.
Spring tonics that are worth while
are exercises in the open air ante
sunshine, sufficient and regular res
of mind and. body, and a diet selected
with some degree of, intelligence.

The month of May generally re
c-rds the highest mortality anion-:
•infant:'u r.c'cr two years of age of an;
month in the year, with the possible
exception of September. The greater
number of these deaths occur on ac
count of mistakes through ignoranc
rcsu'tinrr from incorrect feeding an
improper care, though quite a num
bch arP caused by polluted water o'
infectetl milk. The latter two sourc
of infant mortality during the sum
mer could be entirely removed thri
the simple expedient cf boiling fo
three minutes all water an! ab mill
which is given to babies. The mistake ■
in feeding and care resulting. from
ignorance present a more difficult
problem.

Getting your money’s worth when buying oranges or grape
' fruit depends upon the eating qualities of the fruit.
Fancy appearance outside is not an infallible indication of the
juice, flavor and sweetness which make citrus fruits good to eat.
Florex is a new trade-name adopted by the more than six thou
sand Florida growers who form the cooperative, non-profit Florida
Citrus Exchange.
Whenever you see the Florex trade-mark on oranges and grape
fruit it means they are rich in the inside contents that make citrus .
fruits healthful and palatable.
that you obtain from your retail dealer, under the Florex trade
mark, will give you satisfaction, because they are good to eat.
The large production of Florida oranges and* grapefruit this
season assures ample supply at reasonable prices. Florex will guide
you in getting full value for your money.
•' , ■ ' *
Florex oranges and grapefruit are graded and -packed especially
to suit southern trade and to conform with the habit of the peqple ' -
of the South to buy for excellence rather than appearance. .
Tell your store-keeper you want Florex oranges and grapefruit
and intend to have them. You can easily identify Florex fruits
by this trade-mark printed on boxes and wrappers—
