Responsible for Disappearance
Of sweet Tooth"

Aunt Mary is an immaculate house
Keeper She is constantly going about
after her servants to see that every
thing is clean and In order.
Since prohibition and the high cost
of sugar she has been more than an
noyed to find the sugar spoon con-
stantly covered with thick coat Of
sugar. She had admonished the
members of her family to be more
careful in the use of the spoon, and
not to dip 1T into their tea, but to
no avail-the spoon continued 10 car

had come to dissolving this coat In

Child Critics Wreck Show.

The modern child had its innings the
other day in a theater at Halle,
Germany.
A company had been brought from
Munich to give matinee performance
of fairy play and the theater was
packed with children. They, however,
considered the piece silly and the
scenery and dresses inadequate. Making
a tremendous uproar, they demanded
their money back.
BY the time the police arrived and
cleared the theater. the children had
broken up most of the seats.

AIM FOR HEALTH
IN DRIVING CAR
Many Drivers Add to Numerous
Ills by Failure to Consider
Safety Points.
AVOID STRAINED ATTITUDES
Most Natural Position is Correct one
o Assume In Driving an Automo-
bije-Slouching in Seat Will
Cause Fatigue.

Motoring, taken in right Doses is
healthful. There is such thing, now
ever, as an overdose. There is cor
rect and an incorrect way to drive ana
ride, from the standpoint OF health, as
well as from the standpoint OF ordi-
nary safety.
No learned physician need he con
suited to determine if you drive cor
rectly. Anyone can diagnose his own
case. The symptoms are not hidden,
says Cleveland Plain Dealer.
IT, after a drive of fifty to a hundred
miles, one gets out Of his machine
physically or mentally exhausted
"completeley all in," his way of drlv-
is "all wrong"
In driving any horse not particularly
high spirited the reins are usually lelt
hanging rather loosely, seldom taut'
In steering an automobile, hold the
wheel as you would a quiet, easy going
mare-easily.
Many people, when driving, hold to
tbe steering wheel with all muscles
tense and set. That Is fatiguing ana
when quick action Is demanded the
muscles do not respond as readily as
they should.
Constant driving in this fashion Is
usually due to nervousness. A genera
physical relaxation noted on finishing
a trip is the symptom denoting this
habit; though most persons so afiilcted
are aware of it, catching themselves
frequently In strained attitudes.
Another Bad Habit.
Another bad habit among operators
of motor vehicles is the tendency to
slouch in the seat at the wheel. No
one seems to cherish the old coach
mans erect attitude preferring to get
as near reclining position as posi-
bic.
Yet there are few coachmen suffer
ing from curvature Of the spine or
round shoulders. The most natural
sitting position is the correct one to
assume when driving an automobile.
Leaning over tne Nneel anu IfNllhE
one arm on the side of the car as on
an arm rest are not healthful posi-
tions. While not necessarily harmful
in themselves, they are in the end tir-
ing.
4 common affection is eye strain.
This is brought on by much night driv-
ing where the operator is peering for a
long time into poorly lighted roads, or
standing the glare Of binding search
lights.
To prevent this. look as much a
possible into the stream Of your own
headlights and never. if possible. into
approaching glares. II you are driy-
ing far enough on your own side Of The
road this is generally unnecessary.
Don't try to see too much at once
That is dangerous to more than the
eyes.
