 Lack of fresh air is another reason for colds. One should sIeep always with a large amount of fresh air in circulation. Outdoor exercise and deep breathing are essential.

Lily Jones had been i'll for six weeks and she was going to sit up in a chair for the first time. Her mother called the good news across the frost -blackened garden to her next door neighbor as the two women shook dusters at the back door.
 .'She wants to put on all her clothes and walk around the room" said Mrs. Jones, doubtfully. T don't think she is strong enough"
 T think it's too much to attempt the first time she is out of bed, agreed the neighbor. But let me come over and help officiate at the ceremony. John has a big Navajo bathrobe that he has never worn be- cause of the vivid coloring. Let me lend it to Lily. It will make up for not putting on her own clothes. The mere effort of putting on clothes after a long illness is more exhausting than any one knows till they attempt it

 Her mother stood by helplessly.

 So the neighbor took charge.
 First, I think we should close the window" she said, until Lily is set tied in her chair and warmly wrapped"
 ''But I don't want to be wrapped I want to walk all round the room and see how strong I am,' protested Lily.
 Mrs. Riley, placing a chair at right angles to the bed, said:

Just Between Ourselves
BY DELLA E. STEWART

out boldly and declare that perfect fairness shall be the slogan of life and relationships, so few to carry out such a life motto. Somehow it's so easy to think that we are favored in dividuals-a little removed from the common rabble, a little less amenable to common law and common justice. For us the rules of the game must be laid aside. For us, privilege instead of stern duty.
 The first thing we know, we run up against some fundamental verity of life. It doesn't give way before us and an unpleasant, painful bump Is the result Sometimes we learn from one such bump.
 We all have more or less severe standards by which we judge others. Let's not make them more severe than those which we keep for self judgments.

 Cheaply As By Rail

IF you wanted to take an airplane trip from New York to Havana a year ago, the ticket cost s750' each way. Now the fare has been cut to $225. That is getting close to the $40 fare charged on the railroad and steamship route
 More important The airplane has reduced to 19 hours flying time the journey from New York to Havana, distance 1521 miles, which by rail- road and fast boat takes four days.
 The airplane is eliminating dis tance.

And they measured the lock that had separated them from the silver when they abandoned that tunnel, and it was only five cubits.
 Now, if they had had additional faith as a grain of mustard seed ana a few sticks of dynamite, they might have removed that mountain and be- gun to collect dividends five years sooner.
 And I considered when they told me this how many men there be wEo halt five cubits on the hitner side of success. when one more blast and 8. little more faith would firing them their hearts desire.

Mothers are the same the world over. They never get any thing. Whatever comes their way, belongs to the children, in advance.
