Chicago, Aug. 21.-Reluctance on the
part of some people of wealth to bear
children because, they declare. babies
hamper their social activities and i'm
pose too great a tax on their time and
a burden on their energies, is implied
in an article by John D. Rockefeller's
daughter. Mrs. Edith Rockefeller Nc
Cormick who describes motherhood as
the greatest inspiration and blessing a
woman can know and declares awak-
ems Joy and love q woman never
could otherwise know
In an article on What My Children
Mean to Me- she has written for the
forthcoming number of the Delineator
Mrs. Mccormick declares she finds
motherhood 1.-The fullnees OF living
and transforms every woman into "a
queen" 1t brings joy and content
edness not obtainable through any 9TH
er gift and makes life seem a more
glorious and cherished possession.
She aserts that motherhood instead
of hampering or restricting the activi-
ties of women, inspires and multiplics
the opportunities for accomplishment
and extreme happiness.
"In the capacity of mother" she
writes, the woman of beauty. Of talent.
of charm, of executive ability. of
strong conviction, of artistic tempera-
ment, of high ideals, of broad intelli-
gence, of commanding presence, of
warm sympathy, Of keen perception, of

TO BUILD HOSPITAL

New York, Aug. 21.-Twenty-seven
thousand persons scattered in %
states will contribute a fraction over
SC per month to build and maintain a
tuberculosis sanatorium at Liberty.
N. Y, which is to be established by
the Workmen's Circle. a National fra
ternal insurance organization.
The State Charities Aid Association
states that application has been made
to Health Commissioner Porter to
erect this sanatorium and if the appli-
cation is granted, it is expected that
immediate steps will be taken to-
wards the erection of the hospital
which will accommodate 40 patients.
The yearly assessment of $1.10 for
each of the $4,000 members will re-
suit in a fund of $29.7OO.OO. flowing in
to New York State Golfers. This
scheme of assessing each member of
an organization to support a tubercu-
losis hospital has been successfully
tried in Albany where the tuberculosis
pavilion, the first of it's kind in the
country, is supported by the Fedora
ton of Labor from one cent a week
assessments.
Further evidence of the modern
tendency among insurance orders to
preserve the health of their patrons
is contained in the announcement just
made by the Provident Savings Life
Assurance Society of the creation of a
Health Bureau which aims to help the
policy holders by % prevention Of

But May had snatched the little cap
from the appraised fingers and placed
it upon her own fluffy brown hair.

tened the apron to her waist with deft
fingers. "And now the busting brush.

with a flourish of the brush and a
sweeping courtesy.
The girl laughed and even Mrs. Al
Ign smiled indulgently as May danced
away toward the middle of the ro-
tunda flirting the brush indiscrimin-
ately over jardinieres and palm leaves
as she passed. Soon pillars and palms
interviewed and concealed her from
their view.

May Allyn stepped from the eleva-
tor with bit of lace in her hand and
walked through the rotunda, looking
pillars that were both emphasized and
screened by the dropping palms. There
were few persons in sight, semi-in-
valid or two lounging about, an old
gentleman reading a newspaper, and
now and then a sightseer with up
turned face and curious eyes. Most
of the guests were over on the beach,
for it was the bathing hour; few
were up the lake boating or fishing,
and a few others out on the ocean
pier or wandering among the many
trails. May went nearly across the
rotunda before she found the object
of her search, woman in a retired
corner reading a novel.

claimed rebukingly; land reading that
novel, as might have expected. Don't

The older woman did so, with a
sigh, and took the bit of fleecy lace
between her fingers.
NO, it won't do at all, May" she
decided instantly, a ripple of amuse.

How TO Reduce Fat
PrOpOriiOnately

Proportion is the thing. A fat woman
yearns to reduce her abdomen, but she
doesn't want to produce a scrawny
neck. This fact condemns the dieting
method OF reducing. You can't starve
the fat Off one place and not off
another. Simply impossible. But why
try dieting. or even exercising, when
there Is a better way OF reducing fat
than either
Try the following: One-half ounce
Marmola, 10 ounce Fluid Extract Cas-
cara Aromatic. 1-2 ounces Pepper
mint Water. Any druggist win nll the
above cheaply. Take teaspoonful
after meals and at bedtime and see
II in a few weeks you are not losing
about a pound Of fat a day--not from
places where you are normally plump,
but from those that are overly rat.
The receipt works like charm, / am
told. and though il produces delight
fully apparent results. yet It IS per-
lectly harmless. Doesn't even cause
wrinkles, they say who have used IT,
nor interfere with ones diet, which
are two other exclusive and import
ant differences IL possesses over all
other fat reducers / ever heard OF. In
stead of being harmful, in fact. as
so many of the advertised remedies
are, il improves the health and ap-
