I TOO quickly conclude that you all
ready have it, beause to make q
| simple suggestion to q child which
the child deliberately disregards is
proof in itself that there is not a
sufncient amount of goodwill. So.
repeat that you first get on the
good side Of your daughter. Talk
TO her frequently about the things
that she likes to talk about and
winch brings her most delight. Do
| things to please her just for the
sake of friendship Play with her
great deal for a couple of days
without correcting her much for
anything, and get her to like you
better than ever before.
Then have little Tx with her
directly on the point ating. For
! example, in the even. g., just before
she gets into bed would be a good
time. Joke with her a little and
just before leaving her room, say,
'"Oh, yes, l wanted to tell you some
thing before you go to sleep to-
| night. (Sit on the side of her bed)
Beginning with tomorrow morning,
am going to have you play the
part of a woman who has beautiful
manners. When we speak TO each
other, we will both be very polite
| and at meal time, we shall eat just
as a princess would eat. You are
old enough now to play the part
we'll and l am going to expect you
to. That is all ! wanted to tell
YOU" Say something about what a
fine time you will have tomorrow
and bid her goodnight.
The next morning, be unusually
cheerful. Make her feel happy.
Talk in pleasing way to her. At
| the breakfast table, talk about
something that will interest her. If
she happens to forget and does
something that she knows she should
not, do not give the impression thai
you are anxious to find fault with
her. Do not look cross. Look her
| in the eye for a few moments with
some question about pet subject
of hers in q natural way. Try to
manage in such a way that she will
act as well as possible without hav
ing her attention called to her
weakness at all.
Some time after the meal, talk to
her in q friendly way and then say,
"Oh Anne, l am so pleased. with
you. You did so well. You went
through the meal making hardly
any mistakes at all. / am proud of
you. You are going to do even bet
ter the next meal. / am going to
expect you to-" Treat her in this
way, speaking to her between meals
and in the evening for at least three
or four days before you give up-al-
ways approving her for her progress.
Play nearly all the emphasis, upon
her improvement-only incidentally
referring to the mistakes which she
is fast learning to. avoid.

I would turn to Betty B."
I heard my own voice replyine
"ru turn to Betty b. And though
don't deserve Il at ell, know I'll
find her there when I call e"
But Betty wasn't in town.
The very day after Anthony Nor
reys' dinner she had left for an
extended tour. There simply wasn't
any one I could ask to come with
me.
Tears of. rage and modification
stood in my eyes, as picked up the
receiver to call Anthony Norreys
and confess to him that 1 actually
had no woman friend. But when
the operator down stairs said Mum
Der please" l found myself giving a
different number from what 1 had
intended to. Not Anthony Norreys'
country place but Betty Bryce's
apartment in town.
And as l. stood waiting with the
black cylinder pressed to my ear,
l realized that 1 couldn't reach Mr..
Norreys now anyway. 1 had used
at least half an hour in agitating
myself and agonizing over my friend
lessness. Mr.. Norreys had said that
he would call for me in an hour.
If he had spoken from his own place
-Noroton, as indeed 1 had no as
surance that he had done-he would
still be gone from there by now
since it was full forty-minute drive
from Noroton to town.
Suddenly over the buzzing wire
came one clear standardization
joy-gving sound. Betty's voice!
Betty! Betty! Oh, how wonder
full that you should be there" I
cried, half-sobbing with the relief
of it-and sure in my soul that no
matter what her own plans. Betty
Bryce wouldn't fail me.
why hello-its the little lilac
lady-Our Princess Anne!" she said.
You sound unhappy and glad all
at once, child. Not in trouble-are
you? I'm home fortnight ahead

City is aware off,"
II guess it's because / need you
so, Betty. l called you without ex-
actly knowing 1 was going to do
it,"
Maybe it was Fate led you," said
Betty and then after an instant's
hesitation, What can I do for you?"
Betty, there's a funny tone in
your voice. Do you think I'm just
using you again-like the time I
asked you to hove Virginia over for
dinner? 1t isn't the same now,
though I do need you tonight. 1
want you to take dinner with An
thany Norreys and me. Say you
will. Please don't refuse. There
isn't another woman in New York
can count on. Don't refuse."
Sharp and crisp Betty's voice came
back over the phone:
You sound as If you did need
me, Anne. But why? Won't Jim
be with us?"
you and me. You'll Gomez"
Yes. Ill take a taxi and come
straight over to you, Anne"
But as Betty agreed and 1 hung
up the receiver, two unasked ques-
tions pulsed between us:
From her: Where's Jim?a And
why is his wife SO anxious to dine
with Anthony Norreys?"
From me: What are you doing
back in the city two weeks ahead
of schedule, Betty? And why doesn't

1t is claimed that Monks of an

hundred species of medicinal plants
used in general for medicines by
these religious orders. While GEN.

many of our most successful reme-

DR.. James Francis Sullivan, formerly physician of
Bellevue Hospital (Outdoor Dept.), New York, and
the Westchester 'County Hospital.
Modern methods of cooking and the rapid pace
at which people of this country live has made such
an alarming increase in iron deficiency in the blood
of American men and women that have often mar
veled at the large number of people who lack iron
in the blood, and who never suspect the cause of
their weak, nervous, rundown state. Lack OF iron
in the blood not only makes man physical and

DIR. Ferdinand King, New York

There can be no strong, healthy,

inasmuch as refining processes and

some form of organic iron, just as we
