Physicians are baffled by St. Vitus' !nre because it ia a nervous disease in which they can find nothing actually Wrong with the nervous system. Long before the child becomes awkward and begins dropping things there is a jieriod in which the appetite is fickle and the patient is tired and listless. The jerking movements characteristic of the disease come much later. , In the early stages a good tonic for the blood and nerves will go far toward pre venting the development of the disease. But the tonic must be free from alcohol and opiates for these make the-nervous condition worse. When your child ap pears listless, prefers to sit and read rather than go out and play and requires entirely too much time to get his or her lessons, give a course of treatment with Br. Williams' Pink rills. They cannot do harm, the system is sure to be bene fited and yon may avoid serious trouble. These puis build up the blood, nourish the starved nerves and improve the gen eral health.

Flegel made an appeal for workers to sell tags. royal palace, which is for the King and his family alone?" "I will not tell you," replied Janco, just remembering what his father had told him. "Oh, it Is all up with us. I fear," whispered the King to the Princess, "unless you are willing to marry Jan co," for he had noticed with what looks of admiration Janco had been gazing upon her. - "Tndee d. I would lust love to marry him TH.n" renlied the Princess. "1 dote on brave, fierce men." Then the King told Janco that he would give him the Princess tor a wire and make him the first Prince of the kingdom and let him come and go about the palace just like one of the family if he would Keep tne eu-iooi giant and the 10,000 ' long-knived men away and promise not to do any fight ing himself. Janco, who had been expecting to be arrested for a tramp, was so astonished at this offer that at first he could not reply,, but as soon as he got his breath he readily agreed, as you would have done had you been a youth and seen the beautiful Prin cess.' And so they all lived happily, for al though Janco was a fool, he had sense enough to keep his iiiouth shut at the right time, which is more than many wise folks have. (Copyright, 1916, by the MeCIure Newspaper syndicate, .vew xorjt yiiy.) Snepskots. - By .Mrs EAWalker. Janc-o'a Silence Part II. HEN tho trusty Generals came to Janco they saw the spur and w said: "Why do you carry that spur?" "I am waiting for a swift steed with a suit of golden armor and a golden lance." replied Janco, forgetting what his father had told him about answer ing questions. Of course, this fright ened the trusty Generals very much, for they were soldiers apd thought that he must intend to fight if ho was waiting for armor and lance. So they asked him again: "Why do you want a suit of armor and a swift steed?" "I will not tell you that." replied Janco, for he just -then remembered his father's caution about answering questions. Now, although the trusty Generals were very brave and experienced men of war, this frightened them ever so much more. 'There is no doubt," they said to ode- another, "that this person is a very great Prince from some un known land and that he intends to come on his swift steed clad in his golden armor, with his 10,000 long knived men and his 60-foot giant and kill us all and destroy our city. Let us tell the King to make terms of peace with him at once." So away hurried the trusty Generals back to the city and told the King that what they thought about Janco and his intention to kail and destroy all the city. "My, but this is awful!" exclaimed the King, who was Just eating his breakfast. I must go and sea Janco myself." " Then he clad himself in his royal robes and called hts beautiful daugh ter, for he knew that beauty would soften tho hardest heart. And he mounted his war chariot so that he would look fierce, though it was a bumpy old affair without springs, and he would have much preferred his new automobile. But he Just had to look fierce,, you see, in order to impress Janco with the fact of what a great King he was. When he and the Prin cess came to Janco sitting on the side of the road he saw the key hanging at Janco's belt. What Is that key you wear hang ing at your belt?" he asked. "Why, It may open the front door of the palace In case It is locked," re plied Janco, forgetting what his father had told him about answering ques tions. Dear, dear! whispered the King to the Princess. "The bold man is bo certain of destroying me and my king dom that he has even provided him self with a key to the palace: that is the reason. I'm sure, but I shall ask him." With that he turned to Janco and said: "Why should yon want a Key to the Tito Remarkable Families. A RATHER unusual family life was told Tne the other day and I pass It on to my reader friends, for it seems to me there is much in it lor us to think about. In New Tork State are. two families who live together in a big farmhouse, each family occupying one end of the house. The two families nave oeen brought together in this . fashion through the friendship of the two men of the house. It is not unusual for two families to I live together in one house, nor for two men to be friends. But there is I much more to the life of these two families than this. The men. in business parlance, woula probably be called partners. -But there I Is no legal partnership and there is I no talk of partnership between them. I They are friends, that Is all. But friendship to them means thlsi They farm the big farm In common. They put all the revenue from It Into I a common fund in the bank. And they and their families draw upon thlo fund without questioning. Each takes ac cording to his need. They haven t done this for merery a few years, but for 40 years or more. And all this time there has been no unpleasantness, no accusations or re criminations, no feeling that perhaps one is getting more than the other. And this applies not only to the men themselves, but to their families. Rather wonderful, isn't it? There are several members of each family, boys and girls, now, college trained. The mother in one has passed away and the eldest daughter is the housekeeper. It is not, you see, a case of absolute blind obedience to the will of the head of. the house, for every member of each family has freedom to express his individuality. Tet there Is no friction. The same harmony and love rule the families that obtain be tween the two men who brought this unusual and delightful state of affairs about. Knowing human nature as it is, many of us would say such a method of liv ing would be impossible. But facts prove it possible. Upon what basis, then. Is It possible? Is it not upon the love that "seeketh not her own?" Love of the purest kind must obtain in both these homes, must it not, and relc-n in the heart of every one there. There must be absolute unselfishness. which Is, after all, love, on the part of every one and then good comes to an. When each one seeketh not his own. then no injustice is done to any. If some few members of these families were unselfish and self-sacrificing but others were not, then it would seem, from the material point of view, as if some were getting more than others, though I am inclined to believe that the one who is loving and unselfish re ceives after all the most. But if all were not of one mind and that mind with no trace of self in it there would be friction. For instance. If the daughter of one house draws $50 from bank to pay for dress and the daughter of the other household only draws $5, there is no sense of injury on the part of the lat ter nor the thought she is not getting all she ought to have. Now honestly, between how many families would this state of affairs ob tain continuously? It might between members of one family. But these two families are not related to each other. It might between two friends. But here are from cignt to ten people, all different In temperament and ambition, living on this basis. Doe3 it not go to show of what hu man nature Is capable when the highest finest motive rules unselfish love. And do not the harmony and peace and hap piness of these two families point to the fact that much of friction and dis content and dissatisfaction could be dropped from our lives if we would let the love that "seeketh not her own" rule?
