It's wonderful
the way
Chewing-Gum
Laxative
acts chiefly to
REMOVE WASTE
ror GOOD FOOD
Here's a secret millions have discovered
about raN-A-MiNT, the wonderfully
different chewing-gum laxative.
rccn-A-MiNT Is different because you
chew It. It's different, too, because it
removes mostly waste not good food!
riEN-A-MiNT does not work in the
stomach, where food Is being digested.
That's why It does not take away a lot
of the good food you need for energy.
Doctors know that rran-A-MiNT works
chiefly in the lower bowel ... removes
mostly waste, not good food! And It's
non-Irritating, too.
So to feel like a million, chew de
licious men -A -mint. 16 tablets, 35
also small and economy sizes.

How to Shop with Childress. Many mothers dread shopping
with small children. I know one who uses a little ingenuity
to make this chore easier on
herself and more pleasant
for the youngsters.
Her three children are all
below counter height and
could easily become lost or
get into mischief. So this
young woman buys them
each a brightly colored bal
loon and attaches the strings
to their belts.
Thus, as they wander
about, the balloons bob sev
eral feet above the counters, and she can tell at a glance where
each one is. Mrs. I.H., Belle Fourche, S. D.
How to Win a Pronotioa. The only man I know who got ahead
by stopping was a Korean GI I met during the war.
I was driving on a dirt road when I saw a parked jeep with
a Korean-general and colonel in the back seat and the driver
up front under the hood. I stopped to help, but the GI (who
spoke English) said he didn't need any.
Watching, I could see that the things he was messing with
had nothing to do with making the car run, and I told him so.
Then he whispered his story. He said a friend got promoted
for fixing a jeep on a lonely road when his commanding officer
was in a hurry and, in the last four months, he himself had
made four promotions the same way.
I got back into my truck and drove off. That guy didn't need
any help from me. James F. Mara, Las Vegas, Nev.
Two Points of View. I'm a letter
carrier. You know the slogan.
"Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat,
nor gloom of night . . ."
One morning a shower came
down and I was drenched. I was
feeling pretty sorry for myself as
I trudged through water and mud
on my appointed rounds when I
saw two boys coming toward me.
They were splashing in a ditch,
laughing and having a big time.
We were all on the same street, in the same rain. Yet I was
miserable and they couldn't have been happier. I guess it's in
your point of view. Wilburn Carnes, Albertville, Ala.
A Priceless Heritage. In traveling with my salesman -husband,
I usually spend my time visiting sites of interest while he
makes his calls. Recently, in a small community in South
Carolina, I found a beautiful old cemetery nestled in the heart
of the business district As I strolled through it and read the
markers, I found one epitaph that told me everything I should
know about a man and his way of life: "Here lies . . . , who
left his heirs the priceless heritage of a spotless name." Mrs.
LD., Rome, Ga.
