and self-reliant. And she knew that
if she went along he would depend on
her instead of himself. So with pre-
tended indifference she said, "Oh, no.
| can't go with you And you don't
need me anyway, you blow along and
have good time-I'm busy"
That sounded easy-when she said
it; but it wasn't so easy to do. Jimmy
had been all over the parks, the streets
and up and down in the big buildings,
but the water was different.
However, he was plucky and ven
turesome and he decided he would try
it, He blew down the busy street and
over to the wharfs. There he saw
many boats. He especially admired
one great big one and quickly blew
up on the deck and hid behind a great
pile of rope.
This is going to be fine" he said
to himself. 81 can travel on the boat
just as safely as on land and ride over
the water, too"
He snuggled down behind the rope
and thought himself very clever-till
the boat pulled away from shore-out
onto the harbor Then somebody
said: We'll, that's the last of land
well see for a week"
"A week. exclaimed Jimmy and
he darted out with a rush. 'l want
to go home"
He blew frantically about the boat
till the people could hardly keep their
hats on; and then he dashed over the
side and across the bay towards the
shore The waves whipped up into
foam and the little harbor boats rock
ed and tumbled-but Jimmy rushed
madly on.
When ne reached shore he laughed
at his fright. Hi. no, / did do some
thing different" he cried, Il made my
very first storm" And he hunted up
his mother to tell her about itl

Jimmy looked. Sure enough There
were clouds and more clouds, great
white masses sailing over the sky.
They seem very very high" he
said solemnly.
"Oh, they aren't high" laughed his
mother. Il blow up there most of the

The water idea pleased Jimmy very

and tend to square dealing on the part
Of both.
~ have found right here in Phladel-
pha that the dealers will be glad to see
more intelligent buying on the part of
the housekceper. Sometimes woman
will say, 4 haven't got time to go to

of time to go to bargain sales. The

As to impure foods, Mrs. Heath said
II women would 90 where only pure food
was to be had and buy 1t, very soon
there would not be any impure food to
buy.
She is also endeavoring to have a san
itary flour bag adopted by milers and
dealers all over the country. All the
Philadelphia dealers approached today
strongly favored this idea, and will take
definite steps to abolish the flour bags
now in use.
MORE DIVERGENCE IN PRICE.
Regarding prices here. she found that
the food at the Reading Terminal in most
cases cost just twice as much as pro-
visions of the same quality at the South
street curb market. She suggested that

MRS. HEATH FINDS
ROOM FOR BETTERTNG
MARKETS OF CITY
President of National House
wives League Criticises
Methods of Buying and
Divergence in Prices.

II there is any one who might be Justly
Mrs Julian Heath. She is national presl-
dent of the Housewives League-and
more. Mrs. Heath came here to visit
the Philadelphia markets today and also
20 take steps toward establishing branch
of the league in this city.
Mrs. eHath doesn't believe in receiving
neatly typewriter reports about market
conditions on calendnred paper She goes
on the firing line herself without fuss or
feathers and gets TO the root of things.
This morning she was up long before 6
o'clock and down at South streets curb
stone market. After getting a line on
things there she went to the Second
street market, the Terminal and the
Farmers market on Ridge avenue.
ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT
Summing up her conclusions candldly
and without intent of unfriendly criti-
cisni, Mrs. Heath said:
There is great opportunity for i'm
provement in this city's markets, and,
as the housckeepers are in receptive
mood, the time is ripe for them to get
together with the legislators and au-
thorities and establish markets where the
people may get their provisions without
red tape and style and at reasonable
prices"
Mrs. Heath was accompanied on her
trip by Mrs William Il. Lee, chairman
of the Pure Food Committee of the Civic
Club, and Frank Shaw of New York,
her personal representative.
The national president of the House
wives League said sine was not of New
York, or Boston, or any other particu-
lar place. II am with the housewives
no matter where | am" said this ag.
gresslve woman. land If | can give any
suggestions which will bring them good
food at right prices 1 feel amply repaid
for my visits"
Mrs. Heath is short of stature with
kindly face and manner, which makes
one feel as though they knew her six
months after they had known her half
Ian hour. She is an optlmist, and as the
100000 members of the league in this
country are benefiting by her ideas she
must be practical.
81 believe in constructive campaigns
INSTEAD of the destructive" she said at
Rhe Bellevuc-Stratford. II have found
too, that the dealers will welcome that
time when the housekeepers know how
10 buy.
PHONE ORDERS A MISTAKE.
TT is too bad that the housekeeper OF
today doesn't market like her mother or
grandmother did. Why does woman
order provisions over the telephone and
expect to get the best there is in the
store? She wouldn't order hat that way
or a dress. Shouldn't we be just as
particular about the food we eat as the
clothes or hats we wear? Some house
wives admit that they have not been in
a grocery or provision store in years
What is the result? They never get to
know the dealers. and all the grocery
man knows about them is that Mrs
Jones or Mrs, Smith has ordered a bill
OF goods. y personal acquaintance with
the dealer would help matters so much

Appetite Follows
Good Digestion

Nearly everyone INDUCES their
appetite and the digestive organs
are abused. resulting in a conges-
tion of poisonous waste that clogs
the bowels and causes much
misery and distress.
The most effective remedy TO
correct this condition Is the corn
bination of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin known as DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin. This is a
natural. pleasant-tasting remedy,
gentle yet positive ia action, and
quickly relieves Indigestion, con-
stipation. sick headache. belching.
etc. Drug stores sell DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin at fifty cents
and one dollar a bottle, and in
thousands Of homes it is the in
Gispensable family remedy. For
