 The guardian angel in every home is certainly a woman, Upon her shoul- ders rests the responsibility for the health of the family.
 No wife, mother or sister who has the health or happiness of her family at heart, will see day after day go by with nothing done for some tired, sick or ailing member of the household. If she is a wide-awake, thoughtful woman she will make it her first duty to see that Paine's celery compound is used to bring back the vigor to the neglected nerves and the poor blood.
 Elizabeth Cady Stanton, writing to the Wells x Richardson Co.,, of Bur lington, on January S. said
 Some members of my family have been using your Paine's celery com pound, and I heartily recommend it to anyone who is run down or suffering from nervous ills. Hereafter 1 shall always keep bottle on hand"

known that sponge has great powers of fire resistance. The discovery was made accidentally not long ago, and the result was that a consignment of scraps of sponge picked up on the southern coasts was ordered for experimental purposes. The sponge was finely com minuted and mixed intimately with as bestos fibre. The combination was found so successful for any covering which had to be fireproof as well as heat proof that the material has be- come standard. Being full of air cells, it necessarily makes an excellent non conductor. Another very extensive de- partment in asbestos manufacture is that of packings. Of these there are an infinite number of forms. In these days of high pressures and ocean rec ords, it is of supreme importance to marine engineers that they should have jointing and packing materials on which absolute reliance can be placed.

This Great American Recommends Panes Celery
 Those Who Suffer from Nervous Ills

Half a century of pioneer work for the advancement of women has made the life of Elizabeth Cady Stanton an inspiration to thousands, and an appro- priate object of homage and congratu- lation.
 It is a year now since the immense ovation was given to Mrs. Stanton at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York on the anniversary of her S0th year, under the auspices of the Nation al Council of Women of the United States.
 A recommendation from such bril- liant philosopher, so good a mother, such a great and true woman, will be needed by men and women everywhere,
 As Mrs. Stanton herself said in reply to the many addresses of affection and devotion from women representing homes all over the land

Mortality of Physicians.

DR.. Cortright, in the Brooklyn Med.
ical Journal, has written paper on
mortality and Causes of Death in Med"
ical Men," This paper is based on the
records of $50 physicians who have died
in New York and Brooklyn during the
past eight years. The average age of
death was $40 years, and the mortality
was about 1928 as compared with q
mortality of 1898 in clergymen and
1923 in lawyers. There is a considera-
BILE mortality from the self-administra-
ton Of drugs; that from consumption
is about half the general ratio, while
that from typhoid fever il very high.
There is a high death rate due to
arterial sclerosis and other. degener-
alive changes. e The practical conclu-
sion, deducted from DR.. Cortright's sta
tistics, says, the Medical Journal, 10 that
doctors should take at least three weeks
complete rest and change yearly,
should be extremely moderate in the use
of stimulants, should be regular in their
meals, never worry, and never hurry.
This is the kind of advice that doctors
give, but do not take. The further sug-
gestion, however, that they all join
some medical sickness and life assur-
ance society, Is . wise one.-Aedical

A Danrerous Snake.

Next to the perro sompopo the toboba,
u snake with scales of n brilliant hue,
is the most dangerous, of the many
smaller denizens of the brush. The
toboba's greatest length is about three
feet. 1t has a long, thin body and a head
like an adder, but it's fangs are of the
most extraordinary length. This snake
lives intrees and is not to he feared I'M
Jess angered or attacked. Then it will
fight to the death and inflict wounds
that are in themselves exceedingly pain
full, to say nothing of the virus that is
injected every time the snake strikes.
The toboba has liberated mans arms
until they looked as though they had
been slit with a knife. The favorite an
tidotc for the toboba's bite is the same
as in North America for the bite of the

A Heroic Reason why They Are Clubbing

I wish the girls now growing up
could see what a mission they might
take up as American women. Our own
American wo1nen-those of highest
training and possibilities-arer espon-
sible. There is a great waste of the
force, which they should be in the na-
ton, either in foolish surface living.
of elegant form and pretense, or in a
struggle to assert an outside power.
Either way, homes are dropping
through, while colleges and clubs flour
ish; the best clement is being drafted
away. Families, such as should make
the noble increase or leaven and NOR
ally control it, are dwindling to q mi
:nority in the community.
One passing word, good natured,
not cantankerous, about clubs. 1t is
borne in upon me anxiously that wom-
en- nowadays, at least in and about
the great centers, are clubbing them
selves to death. And I think have
found out tho heroic reason why. Sud-
denly little while ago they discov-
cred that they were too many in the
world, ever SD many to one man, and
with grand sagacity and a yet grand
er altruism they set out to thin down.
as rapidly and effectively as possible,
their own ranks. Naturalists tell US
of a wonderful little race Of Alaskan
rodents, which once in a certain so long
reaches an enormous increase, so that
its numbers are beyond computation.
Then all at once, of their own accord,
they set forth in steady columns, de-
iberatc!y, comfortably, gayly, picking
up their sufficient substance as they
go, and even multiplying on the way,
until their persistent march brings
them to the Pacific sea, into which they
calmly walk and are drowned. Toward
some such brave, pathetic burial and
end is the great woman-concourse, of
it's own sublime will and purpose,

THIEVES VEHICLES.
Cabs with False Numbers One OF the
Traps In London.

Cabs with False Numbers dino Of the
Traps In London.
Ia the report true about there being
in London bogus cabs with false num-
beers, and so on? asked a frequent con.
tributor of one of the best-known de-
tective inspectors of Scotland Yard.
1t is quite true, and is done far often
er than the public ever supposes, so
that following cab clew where clever
professional thieves are concerned is
often hopeless. An inGonspicuous pri-
vatc hanson is used, aid both cab and
drivers number displayed arc false.
Often enough we receive the most
positive instructions, On the faith OF
notes made by hotel porters and shop
commissionaires, that certain man
left in q cab of a given number. We
seek out that cab, and find beyond
doubt that the cab was never out at
tho time in question, and we have
regular list now of numbers which
we positively know have been counter
teited. In one case where swell shop
litter had driye en- round from one jew
eler's to another, no fewer than nine
distinct badges and numbers were used
in one day.
Four-wheelers are regularly and con-
stantly used by thieves-the same sys-
tenn of false numbers being one OF the
precautions used-for such q vehicle
is a fine one for conveying stolen goods
that are too heavy. Only recently
we had information of four-wheeler
which is got up to look exactly like
the vehicle used by commercial travel
ers, as they call from place to place.
1t drove up close behind the vehicle of
a jewelers. traveller and stopped at
the same bridesmaids door, very
smart traveller alighting and entering
q shop near.
The driver of the bogus vehicle tried
to get into conversation with the driver
of the real one, pretending that there
was something wrong with the horse
of the latter. The genuine driver got
down and examined his horse, never
doubling the characterof the other con-
veyance, when, happening to glance up,
he saw the swell traveller enter vehicle
No. /, the real thing, in fact. The man
made hasty excuse, pleading that he
had mistaken the cabs-but we know
that he has made the same mistake
several times, and successfully on two
occasions.
Smart traps are generally the con-
; veyances used by burglars, and the
generality of thieves other than swell
ones. 1t is most difficult to trace these
which generally belong to some reg
ular member of the gang-because the
name on them is BACKED out and
another painted on in whitcwash let
ters, or several different pickings out
in paint are done at quiet stages of the
journey, and the markings of the horse
or pony are changed by means of white
and other washes. You would he sur
prised how often and how easily this
is done, especially at night.
Perambulators are amazingly useful
vehicles to thieves, such as housebreak'
ers, burglars, and SO on, and the ap-
parently innocent laundress, seen first
thing in the morning taking a ''pram"
full of clothes has often enough been
to fetch some ''swag" or other.-Lon-
don Tit-Bits.
