ENO contains nothing harsh or drastic that is why it is so good for children. And how they welcome the morning glass of ENO once they have learned what a pleasant bubbly drink it is. Always have a bottle of ENO's "Fruit Salt" in the house,

"Screen Actors Worth All They Can Get"

£20,000 A YEAR Film actors are worth all they can get Indeed, they are really underbald.
This is the contention of SOL Rosenblatt, who has just förnished a raport on Hollywood salaries to General Hugh Johnson, the direc- tor of America's National Be- covery campaign;
Publicity agents spread stories suggesting that £2,000 a week means $104,000 a year; but this, Mr. Rosenblatt points out, la fallacy. High salaries are gener ally payable only when the star is actually working.
Mr. Rosenblatt's roport shows that 3,840. Individuals wore paid £30 or more a week. (Apparent ly, remarks a Daily Telegraph cor- respondent, no American investi. gator thinks it worth while plum- bing the depths occupied by those who earn less than £30.)

Tho Maharajah of Gondal is to revive an ancient Rajput custom on the approaching G1st anniversary of his necession to the throne. He will be weighed against a quantity of gold, which will afterwards be distributed to charities. It is ox- pected, says Exchange from Bom- bay, that £15,000 will thus be given away.
Gondal is ʼn Kathiawar State of 1,024 square miles with a population under the last census, of 205,840.
