'It is because" be fastened to add,
their curly hair makes them so good
looking. In childhood they are spoiled

I'm just a simple minded man.
l cannot understand
A lot OF very curious things
That happen In this land.
For instance when they pass a law
That never should be broken
No one can tell you what it means
Until a judge has spoken.
Why can't they say just what they mean
And mean just what they say
And make II plain to any one
In quite a common way
Instead of making it, in fact
A mixed and WOrdy tumble,
A tangle over which a man
Will founder, trip or tumble?
1t takes a lot of legal light,
OF reasons deep and wide,
When for the breaking of the law
A millionaire is tried,
But when a simple, common man
Gets in legal tussle

And never moves a muscle

And yet sort of do.
The situation clears a bit
To one who looks it through.
To one from Mars it all might seem
A trifie strained or funny.

INJURY TO ANKLES.
How to Treat a Sprain by Simple
Methods and Avid Trouble.

How to Treat a Sprain by Simple
Methods and Avid Trouble.
Il possible, as soon as an ankle Is
yprained put it under water as hot as
can be endured. alternating with cold
water. The easiest way to manage this
IS in the tub under the hot and cold
water spigot.
This treatment often allays the swell
ing and stops further trouble. 1t is
we'll to summon the doctor at once in
case Of bad sprain. If he is long in
arriving, bandage with antiseptic band
ages or with adhesive plaster. For the
former wrap it around the ankle and
the middle Of the foot alternately in
the form of an eight. Cut the adhesive
plaster in short strips and interlace
them from side to side of the sprain,
pulling tightly to hold the injured parts
In place.

quently reduces the Inflammation. This
should be renewed as fast as it dries
up.
Rest the foot in a horizontal posi-
ton. or. better yet. have it higher than
the hips. When the ligaments are torn
and the ankle must be rested on pill
low, much Of the strain will be relieved
by keeping the foot beyond the edge
of the pillow. which is doubled up un-
der the ankle.
When sprain is bad. necessitating
inaction for a long time. the circula-
ton should be kept up by massaging
frequently from the knees to the an
kle. more particularly the calf of the
leg. The massage movements should
be upward. If this Is kept up many
times a day from the time of the acct
dent, there will be no pain in walking.
even after weeks of disused muscles.
There is apt to be weakness for
months after hard sprain. To avoid
| further trouble one should wear sup
port Of some kind. This may be a
woven stocking made of rubber or silk
or a leather anklet that laees up the
front and slips over the heel.

The most potent influence that ever

other mind acting upon it. This is the
highest influence of which we know
anything at present. There is nothing,
for example, that has power on your
thought like a thinker thinking on you,
as it were, or thinking to you. Moth
ing so arouses the affection as a great
heart near yours. Like a fire. it sends
out its warmth to all that are near it,
whether they want it or not.-Henry
