FEELS SPRY AS CRICKET AT 63 \ - Declares Todd’s Tonic Is the Best Remedy . for Stomach Trouble.

• "For years I was a miserable woman, due to stomach trouble. I had Indigestion so badly that I couldn’t even eat soft food without having a spoil of indigestion. I tried a whole lot of medicines that didn't do me any good - . Gas, bloating, heartburn, headaches and a pain in my back kept me feeling bad all the time.

be the place where children can enjoy themselves in a healthy, hearty way. Then they’ll be content to enjoy themselves at home when they are "•older. When parents can insure this, they have thwarted many of the dangers that beset children who get too far away.from home influence.’ Make your children’s friends welcome at your home. By this you have accomplished two things—you have kept the children at home and you have-had a chance to make a close acquaintance with their friends. But only a part of a child’s time is spent at home, of the rest is spent at school And here is a word of advice to parents: Know your children’s teachers. Remain in close contact with their school work. It will pay. You cannot expect a teacher to spend time with each parent every day, of course, but there are organizations that provide a meeting ground for parents and teachers and you should take fullest advantage of them. Showing an interest in your children’s school work Is one sure way to make chums of them. It is a habit that will continue after they are grown, and you ’will never regret the time so spent. Furthermore, yon can learn much about the success or failure of your home discipline by learning about your children’s actions at school. Thus we have the start of our program for preparing our children for their freedom from home ties and home influence that young people boast, in spite of all parents that may think they have tried to do to stop it. It may be summed up as follows: Happy home life, close supervision of school work and companions, and giving the children a fundamental idea of thinking and deciding for themselves, knowing right .from wrong, and choosing of their own volition the former in preference to the latter.
