Condition From Blow on Head Is
Now Considered Serious and Po
lice Take TJp Cold Trail of
Man's Assailant.
Harry Clark, who was found at the
home of C. Hicks, 2171 East Alder
etreet, early Sunday morning- suffer
ing from concussion of the brain, was
reported unconscious at St. Vincent's
Hospital yesterday and his condition
la considered serious.
The man was employed as an orderly
at the Morning-side Hospital and left
the hospital Saturday night, presumably
for the West Side. Shortly after mid
night Saturday Mr. Hicks was
awakened by the man at his door. Pa
trolmen Morris and Van Dusen were
called and Mr. Clark was sent to the
Emergency Hospital, where his condi
tion was not thought to be serious.
Blind Apparently Blank.
"The Internes tried to induce the man
to tell how he was Injured, but his
mind appeared to be blank as to what
took place the night before. He was
minus trousers and hat. He was bleed
ing from the left ear, but the only
evidence of a blow was a slight blue
mark behind his ear.
Mr. Hicks found the man's trousers
near a vacant house lust a block from
their home, and yesterday they dis
covered a woman's ring on their front
porch, where the man had evidently
dropped It. The detectives are now
working on the theory that the man
had been waylaid and robbed by some
associate. However, this theory does
not appear plausible, in that the man
had little or no money, according to
the statement of the superintendent cf
the Institution by whom he was em
ployed, and he had no jewelry.
Woman Thought In Case.
The most reasonable motive for the
crime, as it appears from the slight
clews so far, is that the man had be
come implicated with some woman and
that he had been assaulted by another
man out of jealousy.
No attention was given the case by
the police until yesterday morning, as
a theory other than robbery had been
advanced by a close friend of Mr.
Clark's, but the nature of the man's
Injury and his condition yesterday led
the police to believe that he had been
sandbagged and robbed.
The detectives are now trying to
trace his actions of the night before,
as It Is feared the man will not sur
vive to clear the mystery up.

Y MOTHER was a mighty smart
man to me proudly. "She always had
an extra bean in the pot."
"What do you mean?"
"She was sure to have something up
her sleeve. She never told everything
she was thinking. When she had ap
parently given all she had, still there
was something more. I remember how
she used to go to what she called her
'hoard' when something special was
wanted, but when that was emptied
she turned to her 'second hoard,' and
nobody ever found out how many more
'hoards' there were yet behind that
one."
Mother Like Napoleon.
"She must have been a very wise
woman."
"It was not that she knew so much
more, but she used all she had. She
never slipped on the same place twice.
You know, a child's way of outwitting
his mother usually is so to arrange
things that all of a sudden his wants
seem to become Irresistible. Mother
had learned a lesson from Napoleon.
You remember, his method of winning
a battle was to put an overwhelming
force at the point of attack. What
ever energy mother had she seemed to
be able to apply it always just at the
one point of danger. She was never
hen-headed."
"What was her strongest quality?"
"She was resourceful."
We are very much richer than our
children. But we are not equally rich
everywhere. What baffles us is that
they are so unexpected. Unlike the
great strategist, we are clumsy about
deploying our energies toward the sud
den point of attack. Yet we can cope
even with this difficulty. N. After all,
children do not present so very many
novelties. The trouble Is that we did
not provide for those that did come,
so that we can deal with them ' any
better as they reappear. After a
physical Illness we recollect the treat
ment that was successful, and store
up remedies in case of its recurrence.
Toward moral maladic . we act extem
poraneously. Therefore we have noth
ing ready for 'next time."
First Aid Given.
The rule is: Don't start empty
handed. Know what you will do be
fore 'you do It.
You are going on a Journey with the
children. You know by experience
how restless the;- will be before "they
arrive. Take along a kit of playthings.
The children are quarreling in the
back yard. You start up to quell th
disorder. Do you know what you are
going to say or do? If not, don't go
If you don't know what to do, do noth
ing. But you should know what to do
They quarrel daily. Go to your kit of
devices; start a diversion.
Though the children are sudden, sel
dom must we be. When there is some
new kind of oatbreak it is usually safe
to shut the child up in a room and sit
down outside until you know what to
do. Often you need not act till over
night. Thi is impress! e to the child.
It is more fair to him.
It is often well to be mysterious. It
is better to look '..lse than to talk
foolish. Don't tell how you are going
to punish: simply mention the fact.
Never work any method, even sym
pathy, to the limit, but suggest that
you have concealed In your repertory
something more."
Have the children write out their
complaints, instead of whining them
out. Half the time they will evaporate
between pencil and paper. The other
half of the time, you get a respite to
decide what to do.
The finest trick of a "surprising"
mother is this: Always be better than
their fears. Arrange it that there is
music playing when tley come in
cross. Have a treat ready when a
chum is brought in unexpectedly, so
your son will be proud of his mother.
Let them find notes on their pillows at
night, praising them for their virtues
during the d: y.

ASK YOUR FRIEND.
There la hardly a neighborhood In
any city, town or hamlet In the United
States where women cannot be found
who have derived benefit from Lydla
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. For
more than forty years this botanic
remedy has been overcoming some of
the worst cases of female ills. As one
woman has found help she has told an
other, who has used it with the same
result; so the use of this great medicine
has spread from shore to shore by the
recommendation of those who have
found it good. Therefore, ask your
neighbor, let her tell you from experi
ence the benefit which ailing women
derive from the use of this famous
medicine. Adv.
