The Habit Of Taking Cold.

With many people taking cold is a
habit, but fortunately one that is cas-
lily broken. Take cold sponge bath
every morning when you first get out
of bed--not ice cold, but tempera-
ture of about 80 deg. F. Also sleep
with your window up. Do this and
you will seldom take cold. When you
do take cold take Chamberlain
Cough Remedy and get rid of it as
quickly as possible. Obtainable ev-

Council Of National Defense.

The Council of National Defense
was created under an act Of congress
passed August 90, 1916, and the same
act provided for the creation of an
advisory commission of seven to act
with, under and by the authority of
the council. BY the terms of the act
this council, with the "co-ordination of
industries and resources for the ma.
tiOnal security and welfare" and with
the Creation of relations which will
render possible in the time of need the
immediate concentration and utiliZa-
ton Of the resources of the nation"
The main body, or central council Of
defense at Washington, consists Of the
Of war, navy, interior, ag-
riculture, commerce and labor. The
advisory commission consists of rail-
road presidents, fnanciers, manufac-
turers, educators and specialists in
particular lines. The board acts as IL
clearing house for the war industry
needs of the nation with authority to
determine the most effective ways of
meeting them, and the best means and
methods Of increasing production, in
Guiding the creation or extension of
industries demanded by the emer-
gency; the relative urgency of the diff
ferent needs, also considering price
factors, industrial and labor aspects
and conditions affecting food supplies
and prices. The authority of the coun-
Gil is nation wide.

Non.Freezina Mixture.

Protection against possible freez-
ing of wet materials in a cement
mixer during cold weather is obtained
at low cost by using an oil-burning
heater which can be attached to prac-
tically any mixing machine. Such a
device unquestlOnably can save money
for a contractor by making 1t safe to
operate continuously when the temper
ature is low, says Popular Mechanics
Magazine. The heater is provided with
a 25-gallon tank which is mounted
above the mixer and is connected by
a pipe with a burner situated at the
opening in the side of the mixing drum.
compressed air, obtained either from a
hand pump or compressor, is used to
vaporize the oil and in this way a
flame is forced into the interior of
the drum, keeping the materials there
thoroughly warm.

When They Met Auain,

Two friends met recently in Flan.
ders. Dan DAILY was one Of the
friends. He used to be an advertising
man in Brooklyn and elsewhere. Just
before the war began he was in Ger
many, look-seeing. One night there
was grand party in Frankfurt-am-
Main. Nora Bayes was there and one
or two other Americans and Arthur
Blaut, who owns the largest tannery
in Germany. He tans most of the
leather for one of the great English
firms. Next day Blaut and Daily went
out in Blaut's car and saw the town.
Then they said gOod-by.
1--WE were out gathering up the
wounded" said DAILY, "when I heard
my name called. There was German
soldier with a smashed arm.
Wont you speak to me, Dan?" he
asked.
"It was Arthur Blaut."

panionably at last. "He simply can't
lose his footing or his way"
Yes? That's nice"
Billy Louise felt like putting out hel
tongue at him for the cool remoteness
of his tone. 1t would serve him right
to ride on and let him break his neck
over the blum IL he wanted TO. She
shut her teeth together and turned her
face away from him.
So, in silence and with no very good
feeling between them, they went pre-
cariously down the steep hill (the hill
up which Marthy and the oxen and
Jase had toiled so laboriously twenty
seven years before) and across the tiny
fat to where the cabin window wink
ed a welcome at them through the
storm.
The Celina Democrat. (Celina, O. [Ohio]) 1895-1921, 1917-11-30

"How much g 1t goin to take" asked
Marthy heavily.
"Oh, piles" Billy Louise spoke airily
to hide her pride in the importance of
the subject. Fifty dollars, l guess.
I've got to have some new clothes,
mommie says. I'd like a blue dress"
"And your paw can't raise fifty dol
larsY Marthy's tone was plainly bel
ligercnt.
"Got to pay interest" said Billy Lou
Use Importantly.
Marthy said not another word about
debts or the duties of parents. What
she did was more to the point, how
ever, for she hitched the mules to a
rattly old blackboard next day and
drove over to the Macdonald ranch on
the Wolverine. She carried $50 In her
pocket, and that was practically all
the money Marthy possessed and had
been saved for the debts that harassed
her. She gave the money to Billy Lou
ise's mother and said that it was a
present for Billy Louise and meant for
"schoOl money" She said that she
hadn't any girl of her own to spend
the money on and that Billy Louise
was good girl and smart girl, and
she wanted to do little something to.
ward her schooling.
A woman will sacrifice more pride
than you would believe if she sees a
way toward helping her children to an
education. Mrs. Macdonald took the
money, and she promised secrecy-with
a feeling of relief that Marthy wished
it. She was astonished to find that
Marthy had any feelings not directly
connected with work or the shOrtcom.
ings of Jase, but she never suspected
that Marthy had made any sacrifice for
Billy Louise.
SO Billy Louise went away to school
and never knew whose money had
made it possible to go, and Marthy
worked harder and drove Jase more
relentlessly to make up that $50. She
never mentioned the matter to any one
The next year it was the same. When
in August she questioned Billy Louise
clumsily upon the subject of finances
and learned that daddy still talked
about debts and interest and didn't
know where the money was coming
from she drove over again with money
for the schooling. And again she ex-
tracted a promise of silence.
She did this for four years, and not
soul knew that it cost her anything in
the way of extra work and extra
harassment of mind. She bought more
cattle and cut more hay and went deep
er into debt, for as Billy Louise grew
older and prettier and more accustom-
ed to the ways of town she needed
more money, and the August gift grew
larger The mother
was thankful beyond the point of ques-
tioning An August without Marthy
and Marthy's gift of money would have
been tragedy, and so selfish is mother
love sometimes that she would have
accepted the gift even if she had known
what it cost the giver.
At eighteen, then, Billy Louise knew
some things not taught by the wide
plains and the wild hills around her.
She was not spoiled by her little learn
ing, which was a good thing. And
when her father died tragically be- |
meath an overturned load of poles from
the mountain at the head of the can
yon Billy Louise came home. The Billy |
