Beware Coughs
from common colds
That Hang On
No matter how many medicines
you have tried for your cough, chest
cold or bronchial irritation, you can
get relief now with Creomulsion.
Serious trouble may be brewing and
you cannot afford to take a chance
with anything less than Creomul
sion, which goes right to the seat
of the trouble to aid nature to
soothe and heal the inflamed mem
branes as the germ-laden phlegm
Is loosened and expelled.
Even if other remedies have
failed, don’t be discouraged, your
druggist is authorized to guarantee
Creomulsion and to refund your
money if you are not satisfied with
results from the very first bottle.
Get Creomulsion right now. (Adv.)
Single Grains
A little and a little, collected to
gether, become a great deal; the
heap in the barn consists of single
grains, and drop and drop makes
the inundation.—Saadi.

ASK YOUR DOCTOR THIS
Ask Him Before Giving Your
Child on Unknown Remedy
Practically any doctor you ask will
warn: "Don't give your child unknoivn
remedies without asking your doctor
first."
When it comes to the widely used
children’s remedy — “milk of mag
nesia,” the standard of the world is
established. For over half a century
many doctors have said “PHILLIPS’
Milk of Magnesia.” Safe for children.
No other is “quite like it.”
Keep this in mind, and say “PHIL
LIPS’ MILK OF MAGNESIA”
when you buy. Now also in tablet form.
Get the form you prefer. But see that
what you get is labeled “Genuine
Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia.”
also in TABLET FORM:

Toledo—The proposed $96,780
municipal water system has been
brought one step nearer with the
naming of February 9 as the bond-

Hollywood “Rifts” and “Probes.”
B everly hills , CALIF —
Out here, our two favorite
headlines are “Rift” and
“Probe,” one signifying that
some ideal marriage between
movie stars has begun to split
at the seams and the other that
some functionary has been in
office long enough for the pro
fessional investigators to start
investigating.
In between, somebody is either
trying to put Sister Aimee McPher
son in a hole or get
Tom Mooney out of
jail. So far, neither
undertaking
has
succeeded, but folks
keep right on trying.
Last month, it was
Sister Aimee’s turn.
This month it’s Tom
Mooney’s.
But when other
sources of news fail,
it’s fine to be able
to fall back on good Irvin S. Cobb
old reliable “Rift”
and dependable, stanch
old
“Probe.”
Poor Lo’s Renaissance.
‘T’HE government says the surviv-

creasing in number. I started to
add that this proves the Indians
are holding their own, but, since
we’ve left them very little of their
own to hold, I stayed my hand.
The Navahoes always have been
the most independent and aloof of
all the tribesmen. For the most part,
they continue to live a nomadic ex
istence, following their ancient be
liefs and ceremonials, refusing to be
caged in towns, yet, numerically and
in material'possessions, they out
grow any other tribe.
Can it be that the white man’s
culture, which we so jealousy
strive to cram down the gullets of
red people and black and brown
and yellow, isn’t always what the
victims need?
But, of course, to say that is prac
tically to admit our civilization
might have a few tiny flaws in it,
whereas we know it to be the one
perfect creation of man, and for
proof point to its crowning achieve
ment, the late World war.
The Spoils System.
‘THIS isn’t a criticism, it’s a timid 1
- little prediction based on all
the political experience that the past
yields to us :
Pledges of curtailment in govern
mental expenditures, as eman
ating from White House sources,
are undoubtedly sincere. But Andy
Jackson or whoever it was first
coined the line, expressed the
correct idea when he said that
to the victor belonged the spoils— !
and not to let them spoil too long
either.
So it shouldn’t surprise anybody
or deeply shock anybody, except
the few G. O. P. boys still scattered |
through congress, if Pennsylvania
and Missouri and certain other
states should go right on getting
plenty out of the treasury for con
tinued relief work on behalf of Sen
ator Guffey and Mr. Pendergast and
such-like benefactors of the human
race. Not that the ins are any greed
ier than the outs; they’ve merely
improved in sagacity since the days
when nearly all the smart wolves
seemed to be Republicans and near
ly all the half-witted sheep seemed
to be Democrats.

Lesson for February 7
JESUS THE LIGHT OF THE
WORLD
LESSON TEXT—John 8:12, 31. 32: 9:1-11.
GOLDEN TEXT—I am the light of the
world: he that followeth me shall not walk
in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
PRIMARY TOPIC—When Jesus Passed
By.
JUNIOR TOPIC—When Jesus Passed By.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—
Bow Jesus Is the Light of the World.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—
Walking In the Light With Jesus.
“The Light of the World Is
Jesus!” Who does not remember
with what delight we as children
sang “Come to the light, ’tis shining
for thee . . . The Light of the world
is Jesus.” How precious was the
truth that thus flooded our souls.
Jesus was the light, and just as the
sunlight shed its glory on an awak
ening world at dawn, so he shed
abroad the light of God in the hearts
of men. The writer of these les
sons pens these words with the
prayer that as this portion of God’s
Holy Word is studied and taught,
the light may break forth on many
a soul caught in the bewilderment of
this dark world.
Our study centers around three
simple words fraught with beauty
and rich in meaning.
I. Light (John 8:12).
The text says, “Then spake
Jesus.” When? Just after he had
silenced the hypocritical accusers
of a woman taken in sin, and had
spoken the word of peace to her
troubled soul. She was to “go and
sin no more” because she had met
him who is the “Light of the
World.” They that follow him “shall
not walk in darkness”; they are the
children of light, they have the very
light of life.
II. Freedom (vv. 31, 32).
Free! Four letters, but what
depth of meaning! Chains have fall
en off, prison doors are open. The
one who was bound is free.
But here we are concerned with
an even more important liberty, the
freedom of the soul. Many there
are who boast of their independence
but who are naught but slaves.
Jesus said, “Whosoever committeth
sin is the servant of sin” (John
8:34), not its master.
How shall they be freed? Note
three things in these verses. (1) A
condition, “If ye continue in my
word.” This means not only a pro
fession of faith but a daily appropri
ation and realization of his truth in
life. (2) A promise, “Ye shall know
the truth.” The philosophies of men
profess to be a seeking after truth
but how few there are who look to
the one place where it can be found
—in Jesus Christ. (3) A result,
“the truth shall make you free.”
Truth always sets free. Men are
enslaved because, as in some for
eign lands, they have not had the
opportunity to learn the truth (we
have failed to send it) or because
they have rejected it.
III. Vision (John 9:1-11).
This is one of the most instructive
passages in Scripture. A man born
blind is seen by Jesus. His dis-,
ciples note his intent and begin to
theorize on a theological question.
They had learned so little of the
compassionate spirit of Jesus that
they saw in this blighted life only
an illustration of a theological the
ory. May God help us that we may
never be so blind.
Jesus goes at once to work. He
was in the world to do the works of
God. He and the Father always
work. Let us follow his blessed
example. “The King’s business re
quires haste.” Let us work “while
it is day, the night cometh when
no man can work.”
By a loving and gracious act,
Jesus stirs in the heart of the man
that faith which causes him to go,
to wash, and, glory to God, he sees!
Such a personal experience of the
divine power of the Son 'of God
leaves no doubt in the man's mind
that the one who caused him to
see “is a prophet.” All of a man’s
doubts concerning the deity of Jesus
Christ disappear when he becomes
his Saviour.
Read the remainder of the chap
ter and note how this man’s faith is
victorious in the face of trials, per
secution, and even of excommuni
cation; for outside the temple he
met Jesus and takes him as his
Lord. As Dr. Scroggie puts it, “His
excommunication was a promotion.
He went from the synagogue to the
Saviour.”
France's Inconsistency.
FRANCE has just lent a vast sum
- to Poland, and Poland, it is
admitted, will use the money to
increase its war strength. If Poland
should repudiate the debt and de
fault on the interest, a howl will
go up from “La Belle France”
that’ll ring around the world.
But, of course,. it will continue
to remain an evidence of soulless
greed for Uncle Sam even to inti
mate that France might pay us a
little something on account against
the enormous amount she owes us
for borrowed money which she has
used to build up her army and also,
it would appear, to pass along to |
Poland so that Poland may build up |
hers.
If consistency be a jewel, France

it looks awfully much as though
the principals were caught by the
candid camera. Luckily, how
ever, they’re perfectly groomed
for their parts:
Introducing Janet.
Janet in her jumper (Pattern
1996) is asking Mother which
glassware to use. Her plaid blouse
in taffeta makes her feel very
dressed up. Mother chose this
style because the many possibili
ties for change make it a ward
robe rather than a dress and she
knew it would be easy-to-make.
Your own little girl may have
this same ensemble in sizes 6, 8,
10, 12, and 14 years. Size 8 re
quires 1% yards of 39 inch ma
terial for the jumper and 1%
yards for the blouse.
Mother, the Hostess.
Mother is the perfect hostess,
calm and assured, because she
knows her all-occasion frock with
its sprightly crisp apron (Pattern
1220) is becoming and appropri
ate. For house wear she made
up this model in print. She is
wearing here the crepe version
and knows that it will be delight
ful for later on in cool black and
white. It comes in sizes 34, 36,
38, 40, 42, 44, and 46. The dress
and apron in size 36 require 51
yards of 39 inch material. The
apron alone requires 1% yards.
