' ' " ' ' ' , A specinl effort should be made this year to sustain tliis splendid record. With inereiisiui; uneinployini'iit, and a conse (uent reduction in many family incomes, the fitfbt against th inroads of tuberculosis is Viinn ' be harder thnn it has been for iiuiny years0past. ! Malnutrition and the absence of creature comforts, arc the two strongest allies this dread disease has. This is particularly true among 'children, where tubercular infection is far more serious and more difficult to combat, than among grownups. CHRISTMAS shopring has started, and soon Christmas cards will be on their way. ' The liberal use of Christmas seals on these presents and cards will not only add to their attractive, ncss, l?ut will contribute materially to the better health and greater prosperity of this community. aThc cheeking of oiie case of tuberculosis may mean the dif ference between lifcand death; between happiness und sorrow. The demands ipon the family purse are ninny ; but Christmas seals are cheap, there are few people indeed who can't afford to devote their extra pennies in this direction. ' And these "extra pennies" are. what laount. So if you haven't purchased four Christinas seuls do so today. And get in the habit, of using them, for in a u very important tiling. DOWN WITH THE ONE-EYED MOTOR OAR! W1C AUK glad to see that Seeretury of Sliit.e'lfoss has started a war oil one-eyed automobiles. These highwliy pests are had enough in summtw, but in winter, with fogs and thick wea ther, they are a serious menace. And during the past year, f ir some reason not elear, their number has'been 'iucr,casiiig amaz ingly. . The one-eyed automobile pri-sonls an insoluble problem, for there Is no way of knowing wh'icli is Wie blind eye. The. ap proaching driver simply has to guess; it he guesses wrong pne way he risks the ditch, if the other, he risks a crash. HKKKTOKORK warnings have been deemed sufficient for one ,eyed eurs, bid Mr. IIjss has wisely decided to adopt a new plan entirely. From now on the drivwr of a one-eyed car will not be warned, lie will be stopped mid not allowed to proceed until the defeJt has been remedied, cither on the spot ar at the nearest "service statioV" A very sensible policy, and .one sorely needed. One-eyed automobiles should be barred from the roads. and highways of this state, and the sooner drastic action is taken the better for all concerned. The evil that men brew is 'poured out by offiiers; the gootl is oft interred jii their hoirics. Niithin to iuivc been thankful yesterday I .Nonsense. You might have been the turkey. Jlrs.

Second, the horrible murder of hundreds uf children every year by nans of canuy-like pills or tablets contain ing the deadly poison strychnine: municipal nnd stato governments that permit the Indiscriminate dis tribution .of "samples" of such deadly drugs In nostrums aro sac rlfklug theao Innocent victims to keep themselves italic good graces of the lutcreMts that profit on such trade.

Ipecac Is an emetic all right, but even If you had some right at hand, It will tako maybo a quarter of an hour, maybe fivo minutes to act after you have administered the dose.

I do not understand Juat how u growing plant can be beneficial In a bedroom. I have always under stood that a plant gives off oxy gen only in the daylight and that It trivea off nothing; but carbon di oxide at night, and therefore it would rather harm a person sleep ing . . . (E. 8.) . . I Answer The amount of oxygen or carion dioxide a plant takes in or gives off is of no significance, in respect to the hygienic question. Growing plants in porous pots con stantly evaporate moisture in the air mid to that extent are health ful In any room at any time, espe cially In the winter months when the artificial heat dries' out t'io air excessively. ; ; (Copyright John.

Iy Alice Judson l'eulo There la perhaps no experience more refreahlntT to the adoloacont boy or girl-thnn. to got away from honlo : now und - then either ,by apending a year ut boarding school, a . Hummer 'away at camp' '-or through making a visit the home-.of a congenial relative. Such periods of absence from homo bring more than one advan tage. In tho first place; they help In the process of psychological weaning from homo and family which Is so essential a part of the business of growing up. Secondly,-they give the child a chance to- mcaauro himself In terms of his ability to got out ;ln a -more or less impersonal environ ment. -' '; They help him ' to learn his shortcomings nnd to correct ' his faults- of - soclnl adjustment before they become too fixed to admit of modification. Thoy- facllitato In every way tho development of- tho technic of personal relationships ns ho will encounter them through life. Thirdly, -If he has had difficul ties nt'school or In his social life at home they glvo him a fresh sturt. Ho perhaps has bocQmo 'dis couraged through failures and ad verse criticisms, a noV scene gives him the opportunity to see himself With unprejudiced eyes. ' His old faults become less a part of him and-he-is able to separate them from his own image of him self and - perhnps actually Bluff them off altogether In the new friendly atmosphere.' The simple fact that ho Is In a new; environment gives him a new chnnce for popularity, for sucoess In his studies and for acquiring' a Wholesome attitudo toward those who represent authority. But whether ho has problems or not every child needs an occasional change from home atmosphere tov develop Independence and a round ed, socialized personality.
