Zurich Herald, 1930-11-20, Page 7Woman's Fortitude
Forces Herself to Smile
Through Pain.
"1 never seem to find time to rest,"
says many an overworked housewife.
Under sallies and forced cheerfulness
she conceals weariness and nervous
depression; headaches and ' back-
aches. Often she i$ in real 'pain, but
still refuses to give up. This very
fortitude is apt to be her undo'i'ng, If
she continues to neglect the signals
of distress she will sooner or later
suffer a serious breakdown.
„, A noted doctor has stated that nine -
tenths of the ills of womanhood are
due to poor blood. That anaemia is
the cause of the low spirits, the poor
appetite and palpitation that make
life a burden for so' many,
There is no need, however, for wo-
men to suffer in this way. All the
miseries of anaemia can be banished
by taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
These Pills create an abundance of
new, rich, red blood and this new
blood will bring strength and vitality
to nervous, overtired women. The
Pills are sold by all medicine dealers
or by mail at 50 cents a box from The
Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock-
ville, Ont.

Be Yourself!
Know what you want and take it,
Don't dither all the day;
But if you cannot make it,
Then put the hope away,
Don't spend Your tinge repining
For what you cannot gain,
Accept the silver lining
In every cloud of rain.
Know what you mean, and say it;
Don't use another's phrase.
in kindliness convey it,
Your censure or your praise.
Consider your opinion;
Don't take it ready made,
Your mind's your own dominion;
To think don't be afraid.
Know what's your job, and do it
With all your heart and power;
Don't merely shuffle through it
With one eye on the hour.
For every occupation
Is worth while doing well;
Theres' such a sure elation
In knowing you excel.
Be what you are sincerely,
Not apeing other men,
Pretending you are really
One 'of the upper ten.
No matter what your station,
'Tis character which tells;
'Tis not the shop location
But what it stocks that sells.

Oil Age Gives New Speed
To World, Says Leacock
Montreal—The modern era is dis-
tinguished from all others by man's
use of the products made from crude
oil, and hence this is the "Oil Age,"
according to Stephen Leacock, lectur-
erd professor f political economy

With the .appearance of oil, says Mr.
Leacock, "all the world was speeded
up. The globe seemed to shrink be-
neath our feet. Its vastness was all
gone. From end to enC it was search-
ed and ransacked for oil. The white
winged plane and the motor boat
brought all civilization into one. The
motor car unified the world and turn-
ed the jungle into highways."
Though crude oil has been known
for centuries, it remained for modern
man to learn how to make it into
really useful products.
Now and then, when time hangs
heavily on our hands, we indulge in

The fading forests grow;
The wind dies out along the height,
And denser still the snow;
A gathering weight on roof and tree,

Lie still without a sound;
Like some soft minister of dreams
The snow -fall hoods me round;
In wood and water, earth and air,
A silence everywhere. -

No kindly Providence for him,
No hope is his save that his breast

Guard the Children
From Autumn Colds
The fall is the most severe season
of the year for colds—one day is
warm, the next cold and wet, and un-
less the mother is on her guard, the
little ones are seized with colds that
may hang on all winter. Boby's Own
Tablets are mothers' best friend in
preventing or banishing colds. They
act as a gentle laxative, keeping the
bowels and stomach free and sweet.
An occasional dose of the Tablets
will prevent colds, or if it does come
on suddenly their prompt use will re-
lieve the baby. The Tablets are sold
by medicine dealers or by mail at 25
cents a box from The Dr. Williams'
Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.
While we are on the subject, we
might say one trouble with young
people to -day is that they do too much
petting, and another trouble with their
parents is that they do not do enough,
• Paul—"Give me a kiss or I'll sock
you over the head and take one any-
way."
Pauline—"I'll not give you a kiss—
and don't dare hit me too hard!"
When darkness fell I turned to go—
A halting breath, a minor strain,
I thought I saw a moving form,
And then I hearda weird refrain.
My pulses leaped, my heart was taut,
I seemed to feel your kiss once
more,
And beard your deep voice say, "My
love,
May I have just one wee encore?"
Was fancy, playing me a trick,
Or branches weaving shadow lace?
The music rose in ].filling notes,
And I was sure I saw your face.
The notes were plaintive, fainter now,
Bright moon shafts crept across the
dew,
I looked again, no one was here—
Did I see Pan or was it you?
—"Flaming Olive."
Doctor — "Say ninety-nine twice."

Last of Ridds Leave
Lorna Doone Country
Oare, Eng.—Came Michaelmas, and
Tom Ridd, 'of "Lorna Doone" fame,
moved from Yenworthy Farm, where
his people had resided for generations.
In moving, Ridd severe century -old
family connections with the history of
the territory in which the story of
Lorna Doone was laid.
One of the almost priceless items
of Ridd's.household effects is the long -
barreled flintlock gun, reputed tc be
the one with which Carver Doone
wounded Lorna while she was marry-
ing John Ridd at Oare church. Ridd
will take a place near Devon in "hopes
of bettering" himself. His removal
ends the list of Bidds who have ser-
ved as churchwardens in this lonely
Exmoor village.
"A stranger comes to farm the
place," Ridcl said. "Such is 1930."

DO YOU
SUFFER FROM
CONSTIPATION?
Countless remedies are advertised
for constipation. Arany relieve for
the moment but they are habit form-
ing and must be continued. Others
contain calomel and dangerous min-
eral drugs, which remain in the sys-
tem, settle in the joints and cause
aches and pains. Some are harsh
purgatives which cratnp and gripe
and leave a depressed after effect. '
Avoid lubricating oils which only
greasethe intestines and encourage I
nature's machinery to become lazy.
A purely vegetable laxative such
as Carter's Little Liver Pills, gently
touches the liver, bile starts to flow,
the bowels move gently, the intestines
are thoroughly cleansed and constipa- 1
tion poisons pass away. The stomach,
liver and bowels are now active and
the system enjoys a real tonic effect.
