When a Child "FaiIs."

When child fails in school, must
1t always be the fault of the child? May
It not be the faults of his parents? Or
of the school which he attends? Inves-
legations have shown that there is a
host Of children whose mental slug
gishness is due to physical causes, DR..
M. P. e. Groszmann writes in HUI
manitarian. Even conservative esti-
mates place the percentage of children
suffering from some physical ailment
at rs; this means about 100000 chill
dren of school age in this country. AL
most all of these ailments are remov-
able, even preventable. They range
from decayed and maladjusted teeth
with their manifold sad effects upon
the efficiency and the temper of the
growing child to such serious defects
as nervous disorders, tuberculosis,
blindness, etc.

25th, to unite on the disposal of the
church property and take steps for dis

United States Public Service Re-
serve. Concerning the United
States Shipyard Volunteers

The purpose of this division, is to
emphasize the needs of the, ship
yards for skilled men and the urgent
and pressing character of such need.
The task of enrolling men who are
willing to serve our country where
they are most needed when the call
to such service comes is entrusted to
enrolment agents of the United
States Public Service Reserve.
the men most needed as members
are those who have especial train
ing in the. trades, men who can
work with tools, such as automobile
mechanics, blacksmiths, carpenters,
craftsmen, electricians, power en-
gineers, firemen, general mechanics,
painters, storekeepers, helpers, Ia
borers and others.
AS it's name implies, the United
States Public Service Reserve, is
not an agency to secure immediate
employment for it's members. 1t
aims to have on hand reverve OF
available men who, while staying at
their posts in the industrial life of
the country, stand ready to go when
the Government notifies them that
they can be of greater service else
where.
Whenever a member Of the United
States Shipyard Volunteers is mott
fed of an opportunity to work in
the shipyard, the customary policy
of this organization will be pursued
the member will be informed as to
all the details concerning wages,
terms, and conditions of transporta-
ton and it will them be entirely
with him whether or not to accept
the position.
The applications of skilled or I'M
skilled workers seeking immediate
employment will be handled by the
United States Employment Service,
in cooperation with the local Neigh
borhood Employment Exchange.

Let Riddles Blow Bubbles.

There is no better exercise for i:s-
ducing nostril breathing than blowing
bubbles. 1t is a sheer impossibilty to
breathe through the mouth and to blow
bubbles In one of the big children's
hospitals you may see children daily
blowing bubbles, as it helps to ex-
pand the lungs and induces deep
breathing. Children who blow bub-
bles frequently at home are not like

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that IS by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus

imperfect hearing, and when it is en-.
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con.

About Consultation

Certain articles of diet tend to check
movements of the bowels. The most
common of these are cheese, tea and
boiled milk. On the other hand raw
fruits, especially apples and bananas,
also graham bread and whole wheat
bread promote a movement of the bow
els. When the bowels are badly con-
stipated, however, the sure way is to
take one or two of Chamberlain Tab
lets Immediately after supper.

A Cheerful Face.

There is no greater everyday virtue
than cheerfulness. This quality in
man among men is like sunshine to the
day, or gentle renewing moisture to
parched herbs. The light of cheer
full face diffuSes itself, and cOmmuni-
Gates the happy spirit that inspires it.
The sourest temper must sweeten in
the atmosphere of continuous good
humOr.

A Hint to the Aged

If people past sixty years of age
could be persuaded to go to bed as soon
as they take cold and remain in bed for
one or two days, they would recover
much more quickly, especially if they
take Chamberlain Cough Remedy.
There would also be less danger of the
cold being followed by any of the more
serious diseases.

Popularity of Plants.

Though some plants assume the Of
tensive and catch insects for food,
others act on the defensive to protect
them from being used for food. This
special provision accounts for the pres
cnce of thorns, spines. singing hairs.

AND NOW THEY ARE COOKING
TOBACCO TO MAKE 1T BETTER

For a good many years The American
Tobacco Company have been conducting a
series of experiments having as their
object the improvement of smoking
tobaccos.
And it is interesting to know that one
of the greatest of their discoveries was one
of the simplest, and that was, that cooking
or toasting tobacco improved it in every
way, just as cooking most foods improves
them.
They took real Burley tobacco, grown
in this country; toasted it as you would
toast bread; moistened it to replace the
natural moisture driven off by toasting;
made it into cigarettes, called them
LUCKY STRIKE, the toasted cigarette"
and offered them to the public.
Theresult has been the greatestdem
ever created for any tobacco product in a
similar length of time.
The change produced by toasting is not
only most wholesome, but the flavor is
greatly improved, just as cooking improves
meat, for example.
