Show THE LEIII RUN. LEW. UTAH "Lttcile is the Happiest Girl' So many mothers nowadays talk about giving their children fruit Juices, as If this were a new discovery. dis-covery. As a matter : of fact, for over fifty years, mothers have been accomplishing results far surpassing anything you can secure from home prepared fruit Juices, by using pure, wholesome California Cal-ifornia Fig Syrup, which is prepared under the most exacting laboratory supervision from ripe California Figs, richest of all fruits In laxative and nourishing properties. ' It's marvelous to see how bilious, weak, feverish, sallow, constipated, under-nourished children respond to Its gentle Influence ; how their breath clears up, color flames In their cheeks, and they become sturdy, playful, energetic again. A Western mother, Mrs. TL J. StolL Valley P. 0, Nebraska, says: "My little daughter, Roma Luclle, was constipated from babyhood. I became worried about her and decided to give her some California Fig Syrup. It stopped her constipation quick; and the way It Improved her color and made her pick up made me realize how rundown run-down she had been. She is so sturdy and well now, and always In such good humor that neighbors say she's the happiest girl In the West." Like all good things, California Fig Syrup Is Imitated, but you can always al-ways get the genuine by looking for the name "California" on the carton. Artificial Heart A Vienna physician, Doctor Elsen-m'enger, Elsen-m'enger, has perfected a machine or "artificial heart" that pumps the blood when the real healt stops. By use of this new apparatus persons apparently dead have been brought back to life. It keeps the blood circulating cir-culating for a while although the heart has stopped. The machine is designed to apply alternate pressure and suction to that part of the chest containing the heart, so that blood is alternately sucked Into that organ and forced out again, simulating approximately ap-proximately the normal circulation maintained by the heartbeat ACLMRSION?

WNU Service, ONCE upon a Time a Business Man named Kingsbury Gilpin Gil-pin was riding on top of a Bus. It was a bright, snappy Day, with an early Ilarblnger of Frost in the air and Mr. Gilpin had just booked a large Order, so he was feeling top-hign and Aces. It happened hap-pened that there was seated alongside along-side of Mr. Gilpin a Bird of stern Countenance who didn't look as if he had a Smile left In stock, so Mr. Gilpin thought he would try to cheer the lugubrious individual by Chatting with him pleasantly in re ward to the Weather. "It's a swell Day, ain't It?" asked Mr. Gilpin, as he turned and faced the Stranger. "Aha! Just as I suspected!" ex claimed the Party thus addressed. You have Llcker on your Breath. You have been defying the Constitution Consti-tution and By-Laws. I am a Special Officer, assigned to the Department of Sniffling. Come with me!" "Nothing has passed by my Lips today except Cherry Phosphate," pro tested Mr. Gilpin. "What you smell Is a special Preparation which I use on my Hair. It contains a Percent age of Alcohol." "I never knew a Violator who didn't try to pull an Alibi," said the Enforcement Officer. "Furthermore, you have acknowledged your Guilt by owning up to Possession. This is the most important Capture I have made in Weeks." ' Now it happened that while Mr. Gilpin was being taken to the noose- gow, his elder Son named Wilfred was only two Blocks away, with a Brief Case under his arm. He was taking a set of Contracts over to a Lawyer to have a few Jokers inserted.'. in-serted.'. lie started to Whistle and a Cinder blew into his Mouth. Perhaps it was a Judgment from Heaven. Chip of the Old Block. He spat it out. There is no Law against Whistling on a Public High way, but any kind of Spitting, Cin der or no Cinder, is just the same as robbing the Ice Box in an Or-han Or-han Asylum. Wilfred felt a pair of Strong Uands gripping at his Wind-Pipe. "Arrest this Man 1" shouted one of those Bystanders who Is always asking to have some one arrested. Then a Policeman came ponder ously and struck Wilfred over the Head with his Club, after .which he inquired as to the Facts In the Case. As several excited Spectators pieced together all the Details of the Outrage, Out-rage, the Mob which had collected, became uneasy and then turbulent "Hang him I Hang him 1" shouted the furious Citizens. "No!" exclaimed the Policeman, fighting back the Crowd. "His Life belongs to me." ' Within a few Minutes after Kingsbury Kings-bury Gilpin had been chucked into a dark, subterranean cavern reserved re-served for the more hardened Type of Offenders, the Steel Door clanged again and into the dark and suffocating suf-focating Gloom came another Prisoner, Pris-oner, burled with great Force by the Rough Attendants. Mr. Gilpin crawled over to wipe the Blood from the unhappy Wretch and recognized his Son I "To what do you attribute your Downfall 1" asked Wilfred of his Father. "Lax Discipline and unpardonable Negligence on the Part of my Parents,"" Par-ents,"" replied Mr. Gilpin. "Same here," said Wilfred. Just then they heard the Chains dragging again. A Key turned in the cumbersome Lock. The bobbing bob-bing Light of a Candle showed the Skeleton Bars In Painful distinctness.- A stumbling Football and a dark Figure was thrust Into the Dungeon. Dun-geon. The Newcomer felt his way along the Wall and came Face to Face with Mr. Gilpin. The Two Men peered at each other. "Eugene 1" "Master 1" It was Eugene Wellington, the nired Man. "You here, Eugene V Yes, Master I r When Girls Leave Home. ". "Speak, man! Be brave. It may relieve you to Confess." They're had Spotters at work since Spring and at last they nabbed me. I forgot to separate the Garbage from the Ashes." Two Hours passed. The Gllplns were trying to sleep and Eugene was weeping silently. It was the Latter who aroused his Companions. Compan-ions. ' - "Look!" he said, "a Woman P Sure enough, the Guards" were dragging down the Stone Stairway a fashionably-clad Young Woman whose Hair would have been hanging hang-ing down her back In Confusion, except ex-cept that it had been Bobbed. "I dldnt see It!" she shrieked. "I was looking the Other Way." "Tell that to the Judge," replied the Turnkey, and pushed her Into the Cell She saw the Men back In the Semi-Darkness and shrank from them In Terror. "Fear not." said Kingsbury Gilpin. Gil-pin. "We are Enemies of Society, but we do not barm defenseless girls." "Father r "Leonora !" It was the Only Daughter of Klngsburg Gilpin, recently returned from a Finishing School on the State Road leading from New York to Boston. After she had calmed down she told her Story. It seemed that a Green Light was showing and the Traffic Cop had his Right Hand up, so she made a Left Hand Turn, whereas she should have waited for a Blue Light and a left Hand Signal Sig-nal and then gone Straight Ahead. When she had concluded her Father Fa-ther was convulsed with Grief. "I blame myself as much as I blame you," he said, brokenly. "I beard all of those Stories about Finishing Fin-ishing Schools, but I wouldn't believe be-lieve them." It must have been along toward 3 p. m. when Mr. Gilpin was aroused from an uneasy slumber by Leonora, who whispered to him: "Father, are you strong? Are you brave?" "Speak!" "Who do you think Is here?" ' "The Pastor of the Presbyterian Church?" "No, Anthony !" A Terrible Night "My little Boy? My, prattling, laughing, innocent Anthony?" "Yes, that is He lying on the Floor over by the Doorway. They used the Militia to bring him in." "And what has he done to merit this awful Disgrace?"' After they recovered from the first Shock, they discussed among Themselves as to Whether Mr. Gilpin Gil-pin should put In a Plea of Insanity Insan-ity or have the Chamber of Commerce, Com-merce, the Rotarians and other Organizations Or-ganizations name a Committee to call on the Governor and ask for a Pardon. It seemed that Ages had passed and then the Guard brought theut some Water and Dry Bread. In Hotels Ho-tels and Restaurants it often happens hap-pens that Patrons are compelled to eat heavy and Indigestible Bread, fresh from the Bakeryk but the Inmates In-mates of Penal Institutions always get it Dry. Eugene Wellington had rolled up his Coat and put it under Anthony's head and the Boy was moaning pitifully. piti-fully. All of the Others were silently crouched about, Immersed In melancholy Reflections. Finally there was Silence. "He sleeps," whispered Eugene. "It is well," said Kingsbury Gilpin Gil-pin softly, "for It will be a sad Awakening." "Hush ! What was that?" "I heard naught." "Yes, it is the Shuffle of Feet and the metallic Clangor of Prison Gates. Another Soul Is doomed to Torture." - - Enter Madame. All of them listened. They heard the Muffled Curses, the dull Resonance Reson-ance of Steel against Steel and Words of harsh Command. Then a Scream. It was the hysterical hys-terical Cry of a Woman in Agony. "Ruffians 1" exclaimed Mr. Gilpin. "They send a weak Woman to a Living Death and gloat over her sufferings." "He sprang to his Feet and shook the massive Bars with the Fury of a Madman. "Brutes I Cowards !" he shouted. Anthony awoke and began to Sob with Fear. It was a dirty ' Lay-Out all around, no matter what you say. Two Guards staggered to the Doorway. They dragged between them a Woman. She had fainted. "In with her!" cried one burly Attendant, hoarsely. " The Door opened and the reeling Woman fell Into the Arms of Kings bury Gilpin. Tenderly he lifted the stray Locks concealing her Face. : -"My Wife!" he shrieked. -It is as the Reader had surmised. The new Prisoner was Mrs. Gilpin, "Where am I?" she asked, faintly. as she opened her Eyes. . "Here, with your Husband, and Wilfred, and Leonora, and Anthony and also Eugene Wellington, the Hired Man." "It all comes back to me now ' she said, in a weak voice. "I would have complied, at the first Request, but the Woman who made the Com plaint had been using Henna and Wore Gold In her Teeth and I wouldn't let that Hussy get away with Anything. The next Thing I remember, I was In the Blue Wagon." "What was it all about Honey?" asked Mr. Gilpin, tenderly. "Just as I told you. I was at the Movie and failed to remove my Lid."

It was written by a woman the mother in a typical American family. Her little home had been saved from foreclosure by a coat of new paint, for which a part of their meager savings had been paid. Those few gallons of fresh paint had so revived the appearance and enhanced the value of the property that the mortgagee had consented to renew the loan . . . and the little home was saved. I could not help thinking of the thousands of homes and buildings that are shabby and unattractive today due to several years of neglected painting; of the millions of home owners who, because of reduced incomes and enforced economy, have been obliged to sacrifice painting for taxes, interest, in-terest, assessments, to say nothing of food, clothing, heat and other essentials of comfort com-fort and health. You have seen these paint-starved houses and buildings, as have I. They are everywhere every-where about you. Perhaps your home is included. Do you understand what they signify? Do you realize what will happen to wood or metal that is literally naked of paint if these houses and buildings face the attack of another season of rain, snow, ice, and frost? Never in the history of our . country has the situation been paralleled Property owners face an added burden of expense amounting to millions of dollars for repairs and replacements next spring. And the crisis, in my opinion, will be reached this coming iwferwhenpaintof four, five, and even six years exposure to the weather will be unable to resist the elements --when badly weathered wood and metal will be easy prey for rot, rust and decay. Today the big question facing thousands of property owners is plain. It is "paint or pay.

E ven at the sacrifice of other things, have your house or buildings completely repainted now. No investment you can make will pay better dividends. And nothing you can buy will make you and your family feel so uplifted and cheerful. If you cannot arrange to do a complete repaint ing job now, at least give the badly weathered places a coat or two of protecting paint. Look especially, to the window sills, thresh olds, outdoor porches and steps; the joints of porch railings and palings; the bases of pillars; the edges of eaves; the roof; the gutters and down spouts. These are the vital spots where water lodges where ice and frost settle where rot and rust attack first A few dollars' worth of good paint, applied now, will protect these vital spots will tide you over this crucial winter. And it will probably save you a much greater expense for repairs and replacements next spring and summer. Under existing conditions, you may be tempted to buy a cheap paint because of its low price. I hope you will not make this costly mistake. Even on sound lumber, inferior paint is a poor bargain. But on weathered wood, which is very porous, such paint is worse than useless." It gives you a false feeling of security and leaves you without protection. Prices of well-known, established brands of paint are now the lowest in fifteen years. Enough good, dependable paint can be purchasedforafewdollaroprotectallthe badly weathered surfaces on your building. Again I repeat, do a complete job this fafl if you can. But at least do the vital exposed places before it is 'too late" THE As . Rf U, 1 - vu naa h.-. ta une more BM ob" "aid ni 'J tendant 8Ullll ! Mlaa inn. AUll In fiw on nmg. you.- ""tn,.!
