WORRY, it is• said, is the thing that "kills", and most 'persons desire life—and as free from worry as it is possible to make it. What Are HEELERS? In reply they are a most simple devise or appliance that FITS' ON THE HEEL (outside the sock) OF THE MAN OR THE BOY WHO WEARS RUBBER BOOTS. RUBBER BOOTS ARE JUST ABOUT THE BEST WET WEATHER FOOTWEAR KNOWN TO MAN but they have a very serious defect, in that THEY SLIP AT THE HEELS AND WEAR OUT THE SOCKS and the consequence is that thewo- man' of the house is called upon quite frequently to DARN THE SOCKS and this added to the multiplicity of house duties is oftimes "a real worry" Now HEELERS will preclude this possibility—in fact they are A REAL PANACEA for• this trouble -they are made of nice sofa kip leather with an elastic band that fits over the instep and in. two days after you start to wear them they mould around your. heel perfectly. If you have this trouble. (and practically, all have who wear rubber boots) you can completely overcome this. vexation by wearing HEELERS and they cost so little, 25c — 28c or 35c`Per Pair. Try a pair—you will surely be pleased with the results that follow.

Laboratory measurements show that Att.Bearr provides "hulk" to aid elimination..Atr: Bnuty also sup- plies vitamin B and iron. The "bulk" in this tempting ce- real is more effective than that found in fruits' and vegetables— because it resists digestion better. Within the body, it absorbs mois- ture, and-forun a soft mass.
