Never Too Late to Start Treatment
for Infantile Paralysis.
In the June Woman's Home Com
panion Dr. Roger H. Dennett has an
excellent article on infantile paralysis,
the scourge that so many physicians
fear will return with the warm weath
er. Among other things Doctor Den
nett says:
"It is impossible to tell, when the
child is first taken with the disease,
what the eventual outcome is to be.
Even those who are most completely
paralyzed at the start occasionally be
come entirely well; whereas, paralysis
that is very slight in the beginning
may show no later improvement, even
with the most faithful treatment. It
is never too late, however, to 3tart
some sort of treatment, even for the
little ones who have had their infan
tilo paralysis. for a long while, and
who have not had the advantage of
any special treatment afterward. One
never knows how much can be done
until one has tried, and it is only fair,
at any stage of the paralysis, to give
the child the benefit of science, no
matter how discouraging the outlook
may seem.''
TODAY'S WAR RECIPE.
(From Britain's official win-the-war
cook-book.)
Bacon Soup One onion, two table
spoonfuls of maize rice or barly flour,
three quarters of a teacupful of rice,
half a pint of milk, two carrots,
tablespoonful margine or dripping,

flour smoothly, and add gradually

a pint of the bacon water. Wash the
rice. Scrape the carrots and cut them
into long, thin shreds. Boil the rice
and carrots in the remaining bacon
water, adding more water if neces
sary. When these are done, do not
strain off the water in which they
have been boiled, but add the entire
contents of the saucepan to the rest
of the soup. Simmer for ten minutes
or longer, stirring occasionally.

Doney Bush, Tiger Shortstop
Among the shortstops of the Ameri

reaching first base than Owen (Doney)
Bush of the Detroit team. Although
not a heavy batter none of the smart

Jack Murray Released.
Outfielder Jack Murray has been un
conditionally ..released 'by the New York
Giants under the "ten years' service"
rule, which says that major league
player of ten years- experience cannot
be sent to the minor lengues without
his consent. This is the second time
that Murray has been released by the
Giants under the same rule. After he
got his first releaso from New York
Murray signed with the Cubs. Later
be was released to Toronto of the In
ternational league, where he played
brilliant ball. Murray secured his un
conditional release from Toronto last
winter, presumably to accept the man
agement of a minor league club, but
later signed with the Giants.
Brainard Slugger.

at third base by McGraw iiist season.
bids fair to be the leading long dls-
tnnee bitter of the International league

ber of the Montreal flub, playing at
second base.
Agrigraphs
A good form of borne guardln' is the
home garden.
Plowing an acre of land in four min
utes seems like a dream, but it has
been done with three tractors hitched
to fifty-four plows.
Consuming 3,000 plant lice in forty
minutes muy not bo a record perform
ance for a bird, but the yellow war
bler that did it is worth protecting.
"The home garden coupled with the
smoke house will beat a grocery store
when it comes to furnishing a good
farm meal," says the Mississippi A.
and M. college.
In checking up the wastes remember
tho poultry parasites. Lice and mites
keep many a pound of meat and ninny
an egg out of production. Put crude
oil in the poultry house crevices and
around the roosts and whitewash the
whole place.

Suggestions on Care
Of Eyebrows and Teeth
To Make Eyebrows Grow. There is
nothing better than pure white vase
line for promoting the growth of the
eyelashes and eyebrows, says the Farm
and Fireside. Apply it with a Bmnll
brush, being enreful not to get It into
the eyes, and brush the eyebrows vigor
ously every day to promote circulation
and stimulate the growth of hulr. It is
best to apply the vaseline at night and
wash it off iu the morning.
Care of the Teeth. Once a day is not
often enough to brush your teeth. It
must bo done three times a day to keep
the teeth in good condition. However,
no matter how often one brushes the
teeth or how clean they appear to be, it
is well to visit a dentist once or
twice a year aud have them thoroughly
cleaned.
Treatment For Blackheads. For
blackheads wash the face thoroughly
every night, using first hot then cold
water. The hot water will soften the
black part, which is nothing more than
an accumulation of dust which hns set
tied on the tops of the little pores of
the skin. These pores have become
choked with perspiration, ami you must
niassago your face wheu washing so
that this accumulation is loosened, and
blood from underneath tho surface will
force it out 'with your assistance from
the outside. Twice a week apply a good
cold cream.
To Abolish Pimples. Pimples are usu
ally the result of iuiproiier eating and
not enough exercise and sleep. Eat
simple food, lots of milk and eggs, fruit
and fresh vegetables, see that you are
not constipated, get eight hours of sleep
dally and take exercise frequently in
the open air.
To Waah Blankets.
Put a pint of household ammonia
and a pint of warm water iu a tub,
lay the blanket iu and pour a little
warm water over it Just enough to
wet the top folds, Cover closely and
allow the blanket to stand for a few
moments, thut the fumes arising from
tue ammonia may loosen the dirt, then
wash aud dry It in the ordinary way iu
water of the same temperature as the
first used. Pass the blanket lightly
through the wringer and hang it out to
dry. Farm Journal.
MUSIC.
When I hear music I fear no
danger. I am Invulnerable. I sco
no foe. I am related to the
earliest times and to the latest.
Thorcau.
Just as gymnastic exercise Is
necessary , to keep tho body
healthy, so is musical exercise
necessary to keep the soul
healthy. The proper nourishment
of the intellect and passions can
no more take place without mu
sic than the proper functions of
tho stomach and the blood with
out exercise. riato.

Don't Mope
Do you allow yourself to become ab
seutmluded, wrapped up in a brown
study? Look nbout you. Speak to those
you have been in tho bablt of Ignoring.
Make friends with every one. Strive to
touch life everywhere ycj can. You
will accomplish your tusks better by so
doing than by going forward blindly
absorbed in meditation or engrossed by
internal musings.
Most people waste a large amount of
power through misapplying their own
energy. Perhaps more power is lost
through lack of direction, through lux,
negative habits of thought and action,
which lead to a life of general drlftbig
than in any other way. Then power
leaks out through worry,, fear, envy
and mental friction, l'ou cannot con
serve power and have plenty for all
legitliualo purposes if you are con
stantly fighting something. The over,
indulgence of the emotions will more
quickly dissipate power than anything
else.
To ullow the thought to dwell contin
uously on action which is inexpedient J
or which for any reason ones Judg
ment condemns Is also the source of a
great deal of power waste. Do not let
your thoughts uud your acts ru con
trary to euch other. Put your will on
the side of what you decide to do.
Nautilus.
Cheerfulnees.
Cultivate a cheerful disposition. If a
pel son determines early In life that a
cheerful disposition Is worth having
and strives to obtuln It and does so
that person Is a success in a fine sense
of the word. Of course comparatively
few men and women ever stop to think
about success In chls form, but if they
will acquire the habit I will guarantee
a larger measure of satisfaction thnn
they may have- met with before. Ix;lgh
Mitchell Hodges.
Keep Your Eye on the Present.
Finish every day und he done with it.
You have done what you could. Some
blunders and absurdities, 110 doubt,
crept in. Forget them as soou as you
can. Tomorrow Is a new day, begin it
well and serenely and with too high a
spirit to be cumbered with your old
nonsense. Today all Is good and fair.
It Is too dear with its hopes and invita
tions to wuste a moment on the yester
days. Emerson.
Appreciation.
Love never seems so clear nnd ensy
as when the heart is beating faster nt
the sight of some generous, self risk
ing deed. We feel, no doubt, . then
what Is the highest prize the soul can
wlu; we almost believe in our owu
power to attulu It. George Eliot.
