III. Christ—Resurrection (vv. 25,
26. 38-44).
Majestic and authoritative are the
words of Christ, “I am the resur
rection and the life.” He it was who
gave life, for was he not “in the
beginning with God"? And is it not
said of him that "all things were
made by him”? And Paul tells us
that “by him all things consist.”
He is the only one who could say,
“I lay down my life. I have power
to lay it down and I have power to
take it up again.” (John 10:17, 18.)

()H GRACE, before you go—
— you’re not in a hurry, are
you—notice Mabel’s slip.
Isn’t that the one that you were
telling the girls about at the Bid-
Or-Bi club last week, Mabel?
Yes, it’s my Sew-Your-Own and
I’m real proud of it because it
fits so smoothly. There’s no
bunchiness at the waistline or
hips—it’s fitted, you see—and yet
there’s lots of room around the
bottom. And do you know how
long it took me to make it—no
self praise, but exactly two hours
by the clock. I simply followed
the pattern’s instruction chart—
as easy to do as to concoct a
new dessert.
Tie, Buttons, Hat to Match.
It would be grand for a tailored
dress like mine, wouldn't it, Ma
bel?
Just the thing! Are you off to
the Civic League luncheon at the
Hall? Your dress made up beau
tifully in that
aquamarine,
Grace. I’m crazy about it. The
yoke-and-sleeves-in-one idea is
swell and the black tie and but
tons to match your hat make you
look like Mrs. Merriweather her
self.
Now, now, cut the rave. You
know that neat-but-not-gaudy is
my motto. Bye, I’ll see you in
print.
So long . . . Anne, since you
like my slip so much, I’ll be
glad to help you make one like
it, if you want me to.
That’s lovely of you, Mabel,
but would that sort of thing be
right for a “Stylish Stout” like
me? You should hear George
when I call myself a “Stylish
Stout.” He says I flatter my
self.
That Slenderizing Effect.
Leave it to the men! This slip
would be especially good for you,
Anne, because it’s fitted and,
George or no George, you look
stylish in that dress you're wear
ing—but you DON’T look stout.
The panel in front breaks the
skirt line, and the jabot and col
lar do wonders for the "Buz-
turn." It would be grand made
up in a flowered print for Spring,
Anne.
That very idea occurred to me.
Why don’t we get together to-
morrow afternoon and sew—are
you game? Come to my house.
I baked a batch of oatmeal cook
ies today.
It’s a date, Anne, I’ll be over
in the morning as soon as the
kids are off to school.

Stomach Gas
So Bad Seems
To Hurt Heart
“The gas on my stomach was so bad
I could not eat or sleep. Even my
heart seemed to hurt. A friend sug-
ested Adlerika. The first dose I took
rought me relief. Now I eat as I
wish, sleep fine and never felt better.”
—Mrs. Jas. Filler.
Adlerika acts on BOTH upper and
lower bowels while ordinary laxatives
act on the lower bowel only. Adlerika
gives your system a thorough cleans*
ing, bringing out old, poisonous matter
that you would not believe was in your
system and that has been causing gas
pains, sour stomach, nervousness and
headaches for months.
Dr. H. L. Shoub, New York, reports:
“In addition to intestinal cleansing, Adlerika
greatly reduces bacteria and colon bacilli.**
Give your bowels a REAL cleansing
with Adlerika and see how good you
feel. Just one spoonful relieves GAS
