The aforesaid lady told us the

a similar condition when Inocu

Iniitruellona. Addreaa Pr. William Brady In care
j do they not? It makes mighty
good publicity for the institution
itself and for the rewearch work
ers who hold positions In the va
rious expeditions launched to find
and exterminate, tho "common
cold." Tbe big business men who
fipanco these expeditions expect
ii breni:, too. Ko w may confi
dently anticipate some such news
nt least biennially as long as the
last old-timer survives.
Here I might say , "It is esti
mated that it will bo l0 years
before the last old-timer retires
That's the favorite style of the
publicity writers on those, cold
hunting expeditions. The passive
mode nobody responsible for any
thing, you know. That's as near
:it they daro come to a definition
of "the common cold." They dis
miss such carping quibbles as
this I make, by saying the ail
ment is "well known to every
body" nnd so. of course, It in not
necessary to define it. Any idiot
knows nil nbout It. Only some
of our big business Interests seem
to think we need more knowledge
that's ostensibly tho reason why
they endow the "cold" hunting
expeditions.
Nobody has ever proved sclen
tiflcnlly. by properly controlled
experiment on man or animals,
that exposure to cold or wet has
anything to do with respiratory or
other disease.
Certainly these old timers have
tried their hardest to nhow this
hy scientific experiment. They
have failed to get any convincing
results. That, and ordinary em
pirical observation, Is enough for
me.

Just It. . In many caes when
such couple finally decides to
raise a family, that's precisely
what they find. When you Bt

is tho part of wisdom to have
your children when you're young

Infantile Paralysis .Not Coinmu
nk-able.
Is there nnv harm In sleeping
with a person who has Inianlil
paralysit?? Miss A. .
Answer The condition of pa
ralysis is not communicable. It
Is only in the stage of onset nnd
feverlshness (the first two weeks
of Illness)) . that polimomylotllis
mnv be Infectious. So there Is no
risk Involved in living with or
caring fi.i ono who has the paraly
sis or paresis of muscle groups
which so often follows acuto polio
myelitis. In some eases no pa
ralysis develops after the Illness;
or tho paresis or weakening of in
volved muscle groups Is so slight
id evimescent as to escape notice.
Thus probably not a few cases of.
acute poliomyelitis are not umh
nosed at all, but pass as "cold"
or some similar vague indisposi
tion. Concussion.
Will a boy who has had con
cussion of the brain twice in
childhood go insane later in Hie?
The concussion was caused by a
blow on the Head both times, lie
is now 23 years, old and seems
perfectly normal . . Mrs. P. J. F.
Answer Such n boy. I should
say, has Just as good a chance ft'
going instinc as any of us. Con
cussion is merely shock from an
injury of the head: it is no more
likely to Impair the mind than is
ehock from an Injury to the foot.
Do not take the trumped up court
cases too ' seriously in Yankee
land If a tiamnered son Is caught
at crime and enough dough is
forthcoming, .you can always dig
mi a hlstorv of a blow or two
on the head in infancy or child
hood, which any comic strip edu
cated Jury wiU accept as full
lenuation. tho In medical experl
ttnft, wr never can recognize in
sanity or intellectual Impairment
from such cause.

Copper yesterday dropped to
nine und a half cents a pound, less

so fur that It recalls to silver men
the story of the cloak and suit man,

"Vhat is that? some one asked.
"Anything you ofrev me."

Previous to 1!31 the Bible had
been translated into SSt languages.
Now the SSTth is added, that of the

This language, called the "Mam"

One verse, from St. John, accord

The word "dios" In that text,
evidently is borrowed from the

The chilri's care of his toys of-
' fors an opportunity to teach nun
a great many useful habits.
In most homes the child's toys.
except those which have cost a
good deal of money, do not receive
the respect accorded to adult pos
sessions. They are shoved helter
skelter into corners and closets,
and If some nre broken in the
process no one gives them a sec
ond thought. '
Under such circumstances, ft Is
not straage that the child, failing
to draw a distinction between his
own cherished possessions and
those of grown-up members of tho
household, hecomes destructive
and careless with both.
Children's toys should havo a
special place set nside for them.
A toy chest is good for balls, tops,
woolly unimnis nnd Jump ropes
but such things as wheeled cards.
dolls, wooden animals, and so on.
are apt to be broken or marred
unduly by being thrown Into a
chest.
It is much better if the child
has a shelf within reach where he
can place such things carefully
side by side.
A spcctal box should be set asido
for broken toys. On rainy, blust
ery days the children will enjoy
getting them out and helping
mother mend them. With hnm
m er. glue and paint, toys which,
seemed fit only to be thrown awayf
will give long service.
The lesson will not be lost on
the children, particularly if moth
er lets them Teel that they have
really helped, nnd if tho atmos
phere of the occasion was happy
and friendly.
Such experiences may he the
means by which thriftiness, care
of possessions, and skill of hand
are happily Impressed upon them.
