THIS is the iron ana, the advertising ae, tlie age of siiperr . power and concrete, but the product or invention that has wrought the greatest revolution in Imsiness within the current business cycle is a transparent, dust- and moist lire-proof sub stance known as cellophane. 1$ . pnly spruce jiitlp sxjiieezed through a narrow sjit, solidified into. sheets and treated chem ically, but it has performed miracles in business and distri bution. ' , , ' ' ' ' . France disaoered it more than 15 years ago and tfyen wait ed for the geniug of American 'business to improve upon it and develop U to the poiiit where distribution methods were revo lutionize. To the French it might have seemed a trifle. To the American imagination it loomed large. . . . Cellophane is preserving .meat cut by the, .packer insteail of by tie butcher, it is being woven into hats, protecting growing fruit and packing the ripe product for market, producing arti ficial grass, ribbons and gimcrncks for Christmas trees, preserv ing fXsJi for remote iiilniit) markets, making dirigibles gas proof, aiding in the casting of false teeth, insulating electric circuits and wrapping everything from candy to shirts. This suddeu universal, adoption of such a product as cello phane is convincing proof of, the progrcssiveness of American, industry. It was not rejected .because business had got along without it for several centuries,. Instead it was awake to the pos sibilities and took advantage of them. There lies the secret of tie supremacy of lie Ifjiited Ktiites in industry and commerce.

YOU CAN'T KEEP A Suppose your baby should creep In where you keep your polaona some day when you're busy In the con sulting room, and reach up and knock a vtal- of corrosive AUbllmafe ( blcnuo rlde' of mercury) tablets off the bot tom shelf, breaking the vial, and eat some of the pretty blue stained "can dles." Ho-hum. Just then, by a lucky chalice, you enter the dispensary and r;nd the baby with her lips and mouth all stained blue and the poison tablets all over the floor. What are you going to do In such an emergency run around In little circles "Wiring ing your hands, or give the baby an emetic That1 happened to our baby.1' We gave her the only emetic I know which Is reasonably prompt In effect; This emetic we gave our baby is branded a "poison" by a good many second rate druggists when people ask for it. But It is nevertheless the only quick, sure emetic I know of for Just such emergencies, and I should ad vise every one to keep It In the house hold medicine kit. The emetic Is cop per sulphate, otherwise known as blue Vitriol or blue stone. I suppose : it would be somewhat' poisonous If you took enough. But not In the quan tity' sufficient to produce vomiting. For this purpose one or two grains of copper sulphate Is enough, and it is best given dissolved in a spoonful or two of water.

QI ESTIONW AVI) ANSWERS Tobacco and Diabetes 1 A physician recently reported to you that no diabetes patient he has ever treated used tobacco. He reas oned from that observation that the moderate use : of tobacco might be advisable for diabetes patients, i He should tell it to (a brand of cigar ettes) . Probably the doctor has never had a diabetes patient with one arrrt. Then why not lop off an arm when a -two-armed" case of ' diabetes turrts up? (Don tt. Duffie. M. D.) 4 Answer.

"I -'know 'that' Bobby should hnW been JiV bed. long ago." said mother, explaining the fact that her four-year-old son was still enjoying the sociabilities, of the family living room, although tt was post o:uu o'clock. "But if I put him to bed at soven as he should be. he lies wide awake, staring into the dark. o i nave decided he might Just as well stuv uu and enlov hlmseli." Inquiry revealed that this little noy was permitted to sle,ep until o'clock in the morning. As a re sult of his late rising he wfis not ready for his nap until three in the afternoon when he would go to sleep for two hours or more. With such a routine It was1 no wonder that he was not sleepy at a reasonable hour at night. It may be argued that he was getting all the sleep he needed, and that if it wos not inconvenient for his par ents to have him stay up at night there was no reason why he should go to bed early. The family living room after din ner Is no place for a small child. The conversation, music and laugh ter which form the relaxation or the adult are too stimulating for him. Indeed. It would be remarkable that he could go to sleep promptly even after n half hour of such excite ment. In restraining the child who has developed the' habit of wakefulness nt bedtime. It will be necessary to be patient and persistent, wmie probably for several nights In suc cession he lies awake after being put to bed at the proper hour.
