and I would like very much to
have her sing at the wedding if you
think this could be arranged so as
not to interfere with the wedding
procession. Will you tell me how
yon think it could best be done?
Answer: It would be unusual but■
not unheard of should your sister
sing during the pause in the cere
mony between the betrothal and the I
plighting of the troth. In other I
words, she could stand at the side ,
of the chancel steps and sing while
you and your betrothed walk slowly
up the steps and take your places
in front of the altar. Having fin
ished her song, which of course
must be very short, she then fol
lows and stands on your left. If
it could be arranged so that she
would be hidden from view, she
could sing while the congregation is
assembling, but it would not do to
have her enter the church and then
go out again to meet you and come
down in the processional.

Can’t Walk Far, but
Wants to Return Calls
The fastest way to “alkalize" is to
carry. your alkalizer with you.
That’s what thousands do now
that genuine Phillips' comes in
tiny, peppermint flavored tablets
— in a flat tin for pocket or purse.
Then you are always ready.
Use it this way. Take 2 Phillips’
tablets — equal in “alkalizing”
effect to 2 teaspoonfuls of liquid
Phillips’ from the bottle. At once
you feel "gas,” nausea, "over
crowding” from hyper-acidity be
gin to ease. “Acid headaches,”
"acid breath,” over-acid stomach
are corrected at the source. This
is the quick way to ease your own
distress — avoid offense to others.
IA EAR Mrs. Post: I am a stran-
ger in this community and in
the short time I’ve lived here so
many of the local people have been
to call on me—neighbors, church
women and people who were told
about me by friends of mine living
elsewhere. All but the neighbors
live too far for me to be able to
return these visits. I can not hire a
taxi and the distances are too far
for me to walk as I am not young.
Row can I show my appreciation in
place of paying visits, and encour
age their calling again?
Answer: I would invite them to j
come in to tea, or perhaps you j
might have a regular day at home I
and send out cards reading Mon
days or Fridays or whatever day
it is. And then tell them when you
see them that you have to ask peo- !
pie to be good enough to go to see |
you because you are not able to j
walk so far.

When the kidneys fail to function as
Nature intended, there is retention ot

Biscuit in Hand.
EAR Mrs. Post: When ordering ,
dry cereal, that Is in whole bis
cuit form, which Is very difficult
to eat when unbroken, is It per
missible to break it in the fin
gers before putting cream and
sugar on it? If the answer Is yes,
then what would one do when order
ing it served with fresh fruit on top?
Answer: There is no reason why
a dry biscuit may not be broken in I
the fingers. When you are ordering
fruit to be eaten on it, simply ask
the waiter to bring it to you in a sep
arate dish. Ot course, if you are
putting stewed fruit on it that has
juice, the juice would soften the '
biscuit so that breaking it before
hand would be unnecessary.

■FARMERS everywhere know that the Firestone Ground Grip Tire out-performs
all other tractor tires. They know its outstanding performance is due to the famous
Firestone Ground Grip tread and no other tire can match its performance because
this tread is PATENTED. They know also that no other tire can give them so many
important money-saving advantages.
GREATER TRACTION — Takes a deeper and broader bite into the soil and has
positive self-cleaning action.
GREATER STRENGTH to resist the strain of heavy pulling is provided because
every fiber of every cord is saturated with liquid rubber by the patented Firestone
Gum-Dipping process. Two extra layers
of Gum-Dipped cords under the tread
bind the tread and cord body so solidly
together that we guarantee the tread
will not separate from the cord body.
GREATER SAVINGS-Saves 25%
in time and up to 50% in fuel over steel-
lugged wheels. Low-cost Firestone cut
down wheel program permits using one
set of tires on several different
implements.
GREATER DRAWBAR PULL j
