SOBER SECOND THOUGHT
BY GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS,

The Impulses of our Nature do not
Lead us. they Arouse us. And no
man Is fit to contend gloriously for a
Fact or for Cause until he Is thor
oughly Aroused But to act upon
FIRST Impulses is an unwise and
most disastrous policy.
Halter your Impulses with Sober
Second Thought.
You will never lose anything by
carefully Thinking things over before
you act. In fact, it is our Sober Sec
ond Thoughts that give us courage to
carry through successfully what comes
to US as necessary to be done. Cool
heads are always wiser than hot heads.
Halter your Impulses with Sober
Second Thought
Most of the regrets Of the world
arise from important things done on
Impulse which If but introduced at
once to Sober Second Thought, would
not have been done at all. Many a
man has resigned a good position on
Impulse only to be left for months and
years working up to where he left Off
Sober Second Thought is a companion
worth cultivating. Halter your I'm
pulses with Sober Second Thought.

Massaging Digestive Organs
BY Deep Breathing Is Best

Physicians agree that massaging the
abdominal organs Is at best delicate
procedure requiring the skill Of pro-
fessional in order to prevent more
harm than good being done. And YET
abdominal massage Is recommended as
a help or cure for various ills. especial
ly for constipation. A method which
Is so gentle that no baneful effects
could possibly result employs system
atic deep breathing as the agent.
The diaphragm and the muscles of
the abdomen share in the work of re-
spiration and at the same time press
rhythmically upon the intestines. In
order to increase the pressure SO that
massaging Of the intestines results. It
is only necessary to breathe more deep.

up rhythmically. The patient should

Infant Foods Are Tested
On Little White Rodents
To Determine Their Value

1t Is not very widely known that In
mentally on baby white mice. The
Scientific American Magazine states
hat in various laboratories throughout
the country large numbers of white
mice are fed exclusively on infant
foods and infant milk notifications.
The inference cannot be drawn from
this that infant mice and human in
fants require the same foods; but
growth or lack of growth in the mouse
does indicate something of the growth
promoting properties of the food used.
Large numbers of the baby mice are
fed on each food, so that the individual
differences In the mice may be elm
mated. The food is judged by the av
erage growth Of all the mice in the
group.
The baby mice In the experiments
are as hygienically cared for as are
real babies. The wire cages In which
they are kept are sterilized twice a
week. In the bottom of each cage Is
a white crepe paper napkin to protect
the little feet from the wires. A clean
napkin Is given at least once a day
and often twice or three times. The
infant food mixtures are given from
three to five times a day from little
glass dishes resembling Individual salt
dishes. The dishes are sterilized every
time they are used.
These aristocratic little pets must
have distilled water to drink. This
is furnished from a little glass bottle
having stopper with glass tube,
inverted In the top of the cage. A
drop always hangs at the end of the
glass tube and when mouse is thirsty
it climbs up and ticks OFF the drop,
when another drop Immediately forms.
In this way the purity of the water
at all times Is insured. To be sure,
these pets are never bathed, but why
should they need it? They have no
chance to get dirty.
1t has been said: 1T used to be
thought a small boys Job to feed white
mice, but now one needs college
degree to undertake it,"

Old Glory and the Salute.

DePauw university professor at
Greencastie is telling story on him
self regarding the American flag. He
says last year, when teaching at Culver
Military academy, he happened in the
office of the flag officer one evening as
the flag was being lowered and put
away for the night. 1t was carried
past him. All others saluted and took
Off their hats, while he stood as usual
The next day at dinner the flag Of
ficer was at his table. For the benefit
of his teacher, the young officer gave
his fellow-students a severe lecture on
flag etiquette, never once mentioning
the teacher for whose benefit the lee
ture was given. but it served its pur-
pore and never again did the flag go
unsaluted on such an occasion.-In-

Advice to the Married.

The following advice to newly mar
ried couples is given by Foster G. Id
dings, police court judge of Sioux City,
Iowa:
There's no house big enough to
shelter two families.
"Too much mother-ln-law is not
good thing for young couples.
"Too much father-in-law has the
same effect.
IA wife should leave her husband
to visit relatives at least two weeks
every year. On her return she appre-
.ciates him better.
"A husband should leave his wife
at least two weeks each year. He ap-
rebates her more when he returns.
"A young couples place Is by them
selves. Their battles are their own.
welcome your relatives as com
pany, but don't permit more than one
to come at a time"

Eggs from strong, vigorous, well
handled, fully matured hens will pro-
duce far better chicks than those from
weakly stock.
The sooner eggs can be set after
being laid the better. Three to ten
days should be the limit; nor should
they be chilled, overheated or roughly
handled in the meantime.
Every modern house contains or
should contain bathtub. So should
every henhouse The only difference
Is that one is to hold water and the
other is to be filled with dust, fine
ashes etc.
Always put the incubator in place
where the ventilation is good, the air
pure and the temperature as even as
possible, but not too cold.
II the hens get In the habit OF eat
ing eggs, put few china eggs on the
floor Of their pen and let the fowls
pick at them. Sometimes that will
discourage the egg-eaters somewhat.
1t is of no use to doctor fowls for
colds or roup and then allow the same
conditions which cause the colds and
roup to continue, like drafty houses,
germ-laden air and improper feeding.
Some poultrymen claim to break up
the egg-eating habit in fowls by blow
ing an egg then filling the shell with
mustard and cayenne pepper made into
thick paste with water. II Is said
that this cures the taste for eggs.
When hens are crowded too closely
in a poultry house, one sick bird will
often give the germs to dozen 9th
ers in single night and If the 9TH
ers are not very strong and healthy
they will at once develop these germs
into disease.
Hens with colds frequently tuck
their heads under their wings and
lot Of mucus from their nostrils
is deposited there. In such cases 1T
should be thoroughly washed Off with
water containing some disinfectant
and then wiped thoroughly dry.

The Bell in the Tower.

In the old church tower
Hangs the bell;
And above it on he vane,
In the sunshine and the rain,
Cut in gold ST. Peter stands
With the keys in his two hands,
And all Is well!
In the old church tower
Hangs the bell,
You can hear Its great heart beat,
All, loud, and mild. and sweet!
AS the parson says his prayer
Over happy lovers there,
While all Is well.
In the old church tower
Hangs the bell,
Deep and solemn. Hark! Again!
All what passion and what pain!
With her hands upon her breast
Some poor soul has gone to rest
Where all Is we'll!
In the old church tower
Hangs the bell
A quaint friend that seems to know
All our JOY and all our woe;
1t Is glad when we are wed,
1t is sad when we are dead,
And all IL well!
