and elderly people particularly, who
are so subject to ailments of the
beeathing tubes and lungs, ere fie
q eptly difficult to prescribe for
owing to their frail constitutions.
For all such ,people Peps are the
safest remedy for cough's, colds,
bronchitis, asthma, etc., as Peps
contain absolutely no harmful drugs.
Mrs, Dodd Patriquin of Mattatall
Lake, KS., writes: "I ''have just
been cured of a very •bed cough by
the use of Peps. As I am seventy-
five years of age I consider this
cure all the more remarkable,"
For very young people, too, Pepe
are just as good. All dealers 50e,

FOR FLETCHER'S
1dC qRImoS "T J► R
Each year we shop earlier than
we did the year before for our
Christmas gifts.. We are remind-
ed that thisis our duty by numerous
articles iu newspapers and magazines,
and by more numerous placards in
shops and subways and surface cars.
By now' it has almost become a habit
with us to shop for Christmas gifts
from midsummer on. Whenever we
see something that would just suit a
certain friend's needs, we buy it, label
it, perhaps even wrap it up in tissue
paper and red ribbons, and lay it away
until a little while before Christmas,
when the signs to Mail Early awake us
to another duty, and then we get, it
out, put an onside wrapper on it, ad-
dress it, paste it with Christmas and
Red Cross seals, and send it forth,
There are really many advantages
to the giver,as well as to the seller
of gifts in this shopearly campaign.
For one thing, by buying from time
to time, whenever we find just what
we want, we find ourselves much
better satisfied with our choice of
gifts. For another thing, our Christ-
mas bills are spread over a period of
GUARD THE CHILDREN
FROM AUTUMN COLDS
The Fall is the most severe season
of the year for colds -one day is warm
the next is wet and cold and unless the
mother is on her guard the little ons
are seized with colds that may hang on
all winter. Baby's Own Tablets are
mothers best friend in preventing or
banishing, colds. 'they act as a gentle
laxative, keeping the bt<weis and stom-
ach free and sweet. An occasional dose
will prevent colds or if it does come on
suddenly the prompt use of the Tablets The Prince Shaking
1 will quickly relieve ft. The Tablets are
sold by medicine dealers or by mail at
25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams'
VOLCANIC JAVA.
•
The Place. Where "Bell Blew the Lid
Off,"
The recent eruption o1 the `Riot
(or Kaiut) volcano in Java cost
40,000 native fives, destroyed' 20,000
acres of props, principally rice, by
months, o ahs, and anybody who
has ever had all the Christmas gift
bills to pay at one time knows what
a relief to the pocket book this 15.
And for another thing Christmas
finds us without those frayed nerves
that are the result of shoppng for 01L
our gifts the week before Cliristmas.
Now although most of us shop'
early, many of us have our old habit,
or at least an old habit among Many
women, of making Christmas gifts
during the sumer, and having them
all•reedy at the end of the Tong and
lazy summer days to put away until
Christmas time, Perhaps our inces-
sant and inevitable knitting of socks
and sweaters and mufflers .for the
men in the service had something to
do with breaking of habit. We did

shouldn't prick our fingers and tire
our eyes and•enjoy ourselves to our
heart's content over needlework and
knitting and other forms of handi-
work calculated to produce charming
and acceptable gifts,'
The shops are full of all sorts of
suggestions for lovely gifts to make.
So if you haven't this summer made
all the things you want, go on a
shopping trip now, with the tastes of
various friends in mind, and buy the
wherewithal for many gifts. You
can look about and find out what
other people are making and then
you can buy the materials and get
sweaters to be made -some of then
with embroidery on them, There are
all sorts of sofa cushions. There are
knitted odds and ends of various
sorts. There are dozens of lovely
sorts of handiwork that any clever
woman can duplicate with a little
time, patience and skill.
So go to it and get your Christmas
gifts made, even if you haven't done
'so before this, It is only a couple of
months until Christmas, and that isn't
a very long time,
