"If you get a splinter of wood in
your hand always take 1t out immedi-
ately," cautions medical authority.
"Some kinds of wood are especially
poisonous to some people-the Cali

Vivian Is three years old. Her father
has an automobile and, Of course, she
has frequent rides. The other night
when ready for bed she began jump
ing up in bed, but always fell back on

that, now, when whaling has practt-
cally ended, its recovery of lost ground
ts exceedingly doubtful.

One evening we were entertaining
our guests. One of the men took my

rhino Of the Past.

Betty had been punished. Her aunt
did not know that, and, when she came
into the room and found Betty sitting
disconsolately before the window, she
