BREAD *or A Good Day's Program
The study and play of children—the toil and labor
of gro.vn-ups all demand food rich in nourishment.
Bread heads the list as the best of all foods. It is
rich in force and energy. So easily digested that
the smallest kiddie thrives on it; so substantial that
a day laborer depends upon it for strength.
When hungry—Eat Bread.
It’s a magic food that helps to off-set exorbitant
table costs, and assures you biggest value for the
smallest* amount of money. When you order, spec
ify—
It is the loaf that brings you Big Food Value in most
tempting form. Always tasty, firm, nutritious.

"Pape’s Cold
Compound" is Quickest Relief Known
XJon't stay stuffed-up! Quit blow
ing and snuffling! A dose of "Pape’s
Odd Compound” taken every two
hours until three doses are taken
usually breaks up a cold and ends all
grippe misery.
The first dose opens cloggcd-up
nostrils and air passages of head;
! Stops nose running; relieves head
ache, dullness, feverishness, sneezing.
“Pape’s Cold Compound" is the
quickest, surest relief known and
costs only a few cents at drug stores.
It acts without assistance. Tastes
nice. Contains no quinine. Insist
upon Pape’s.—Adv.

N. E. Holstein
Breeders Organize
Boston, Jan. 6—One of the largest
meetings of cattle-breeders ever held
in Boston took place Wednesday at
the State House, and the delegates
laid the foundation for a revival of
activity among the breeders of pure
bred Holstein cattle, to place their
favorite dairy cow in the front rank.
1 New England has been ranking high
: in this line for some time, but the
I other sections of the country do not
know it. As it seems to lie in the
minds of the public, Minnesota, Wis
consin and Iowa are the only states
to look for pure-bred Holsteins, and
\ the New Hampshire breeders intend
i to disabuse the public mind of this
; idea.
! Preparatory to the meeting today
; there have been thirty-five campaign
; meetings over New England, planned
by the Holstein-Frlesian Association
of America and conducted in con
junction with the State associations
of New England. The immediate
aim of these meetings has been to
organize the industry, bring about
the cooperation between the State !
associations and the national asso- j
elation through a New England or- :
ganizatlon, considering New England |
as a geographical unit.
Breeders from all the New England J
States came to the Boston meeting, i
' and they decided to reorganize their
New England club and form a new
one to be known as the New England
i Holstein-Friesian Breeders' Club.
! Judge Frederick M. Peasley of i
: Cheshire, Conn., was elected presi
dent, Professor T. E. Elder of Mount
Hermon was elected recording seere
i lary, and I,. E. Mclntire of Water
i ville. Me., was chosen treasurer.
1 Two representatives from each
, state were elected to serve as vice
presidents of the new organization.
! They are Edward J. Shattuck of
Andover and Frank P. Knowles of
Auburn for Massachusetts; Harohl I
J. Shaw and Myron T. Peabody for

It’s Easy—If You Know Dr.
Edwards’ Olive Tablets
The secret of keeping young is to feel
young—to do this you must watch your
liver and bowels—there’s no need o*
having a sallow complexion—dark nap
under your eyes—pimples—a bilious
look in your face—dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell y°u
ninety per cent of all sickness comes
from inactive bowels and liver.
Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com
pound mixed will olive oil to net on
the liver and bowels, which he gave w
his patients for years. .
Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in t*!®
action yet always effective. They bans.
about that natural buoyancy which a«
should enjoy by toning up the liver anu
clearing the system of impurities.
