All the while you are swiftly gliding over a smooth, stone
ballasted road-bed, guarded ythe most approved automatic
safety signals, and with luxurious train equipment.
And you. are breathing pure mountain air laden with the
scent of the w~oods-free from SCOT and cinders, for the
Lehgh burns anthracite excAusiUeb.
A glorious ride by rail, yet most of the way beside water.
Such a trip, with Niagara Falls as its climax, is as
fascinating a journey as could well be imagined-one that
is measured by enjoyment rather than by miles or minutes

To 90 by the Lehigh Valley is to double the pleasure of
your trip by seeing The American Alps en- route.
The Lehigh is the romantic avenue to the splendors of the
great cataract Winding through beautiful valleys, .skirting
road is c~oncededly the great scenic line of eastern America.
1t carries you through a natural art gallery, hung with
wondrous landscapes and still life pictures, ever changing

The two girls may be equally to blame for the uncongenialy or the
younger sister may really be the uneDdurable person she is made ut to

enough to hold her tongue on the subject Of family falings to outsiders.
And that result is inevitable.
Family loyalty is a tradition which the world respects and insists

He who violates II, no matter how good his reason, is running his

You need not associate with these uncongenal relatives any more

conditions may be remedied by mucf
spraying and dampening. Spread out
cloths to protect the floor and spray the
plants frequently. If there is INSULT
Gent light plants must be chosen
which will endure the shade.
Do not make the mistake of using
inferior plants for your window gar
den. Procure vigorous plants growing
in rich soil and you viii be we'll re

able for a window garden are tht

The Rotation of Plants.

Geraniums will grow in any soil, but
must have only a moderate amount OF
manure and not too much water. Pan
sizes Hike the richest kind of light,
1oamy soil. Most shrubs like a moder'
ately rich soil, with yearly applications
of anu On the surface over the
roots. Cannas Hike the richest possible
kind of soil. with abundance of water
after they start to grow.
For some reason which cannot be
fully explained some plants will not dc

same place. Especially Is this true Of
asters and sweet peas. 1t Is more oil
less true of all plants. That is why

Points
for
Mothers
t~nfantile PARALYSIS.

tHIdHlIie FaraiJStbs
Infantile paralysis is a germ disease.
Being a germ disease, infantile paraly-
sis is communicable from person TO
person. 1t is contagious and infectious.
The germ is mainly taken through
the nose.
1t is communicated by means Of the
nasal discharge.
Wherever possible handkerchiefs
should be destroyed when soiled. In
any event, they should be thoroughly
boiled.
The use of the pocket handkerchief,
however, is not sufficient to protect a
child from infection. The nasal pas
sage and throat should be kept thor
oughly sterilized. A mouth and nose
wash Of hydrogen peroxide may be
used for the purpose. This may be ap-
piled with an atomizer or other form
Of spray.
Children should be made to avoid the
filth of the streets. Under NJ eircum-
stances should they buy fruit or can
dies which have been exposed to the
dust charged air of the streets.
Do not let your children indulge In
kissing. Infanttle paralysis may very
readily be spread in Just that way.
Above all, keep your child clean.
These precautions are more neces-
sary IN the summer months. but it
would not be unwise to practice them
the whole year,.

In deluging the newcomer with offer

great and costly for baby.

seems almost a crime to think of the
large amounts expended upon toys
whose usefulness are over in q day.
Why does not some one think of the
future and give things that are really
worth while and which will give real
pleasure later on? Think of the joy
of possessing a good library when-one
is old enough to fully appreciate it!
