WHAT MOTHERS
 SHOULD KNOW
By DIR. CHARLOTTE C. WEST
 EarachS

It may surprise you to learn that st.7 of the commonest affections of infancy and early childhood, also fre- quently met with in older children, Is an acute infection of the middle ear.
 In very young children the pres ence of pain can only be guessed at from crying, restlessness and poor sleep. In older children \fnite ear ache may be complained of The middle ear is almost always involved In the infectious diseases of child hood and so, as a routine measure, they should be frequently examined Tn measles, scarlet fever, diphtheria, epiuemic influenza and pneumonia.
 If a very young child, not previous ly i'll, has a sudden rise in tempera- ture, the likelihood of middle ear ln- lection should at once be thought of.
 It is the height of neglect to over look any condition of the ear, for the reason that the mucous mem- branes in this situation are very doli- cate, are easily infected and are in such close connection with impor tant structures. It must be borne in mind that neglected infection of this kind may set up a meningitis, mas told disease, abscess and other com plications.
 A iCduiu6 authority on tH6 ulSedSeS of children advises the following treatment for an acute attack: First, give the child a laxative, then direct your attention to relieving the pain. Syringe the ear with water that has been boiled and cooled to a tempera- ture of 110 degrees Fahrenheit and to one pint of which add one tea spoonful of table salt. Internally give two grains of sodium bromide Gin little milk) for a child of 2 years. Repeat the dose in four hours. This treatment has a favora- ble effect In many cases. cutting short an attack.
 In older children attacks of severe earachs are relieved by gently flush ing out the ear with a pint of very warm salt water given from a foun- tain syringe held two feet above the childs head. Between the flushings the child should lie on a hot water bottle. Neither olive oil nor lauda- mum should be dropped in the ear Ten to fifteen grains of sodium bro mide may be given every few hours. If these measures do not afford prompt relief, physician should be called in.

BEAUTY AND HEALTH
By DIR. LILLIAN WHITNEY
 HLACKHEADS

i, There is no blemish of the skin more annoying than blackheads. You become self-cGnscious and mortified by the fact that with all your care, nothing seems to improve your com plexion. Blackheads are an accumu- lation of oily matter which collects
 in the tiny outlets of the oil glands, commonly called pores The oil hardens and forms little grub. Dust and grime On the surface of the skin discolor the grub giving it black head-hence the name, also the term flesh worms
 How can this conditions be over come? Of first importance is the daily toilet of the face. Haphazard cleansings, cheap soaps, cheap cos metics all do more harm than good The contents of the pores must be softened and expelled, and for this purpose nothing is superior to com pleXion meals l have known the following meal mixture to cure any

number of cases of blackheads that resisted ordinary measures:
 Oatmeal. l pound; powdered Flor entine Crris root; almond meal of each ounces; old powdered castillo soap, 1 ounce.
 Reduce all to a fine powder mix thoroughly and keep in dry place. Take about one tablespoonful of the mixture and with quite hot water form paste. Rub deep into the pores with the finger,tips. Rinse off with hot water and repeat the treat ment several times. If ytu are going out, apply cold water to close the pores.
 When making the toilet of the face at bedtime follow the above cleans ing treatment with whatever rem edies are called for in your particu- lar ease. For instance the hot meal mixture softens the skin and opens the pores; then rub in: Petrolatum, ? ounces; Wotl-fat, anhydrouS, ounces hydrogen peroxide, ounces Leave on considerable amount dur ing the night The morning treat ment with meal mixture will remove the loosened contests of the pores
The Birmingham age-herald., 1923-07-29

and in few days your complexion will show great improvement.
 Now there are some skins that can not be treated so easily. The pores are dry and small and the surface seems filled with millions of tiny black specks Use hot towels fir.t. followed by 10 minutes cleansing and massage with meal mixture. Use it over and over again. Then daub on and into the skin this lotion: Ether, 2 ounces; soap Nniment. 2 ounces. It will burn a little. After a few minutes wash it off with quite hot water and then force out the blackheads. Not with your nails but by pressing the skin between your

 A tonic lotion for closing the pores and creating a healthier condition of the cuticle is necessary. Use cam phor, 1 pint; glycerine, l2 ouncei borax |. ounce. Daub tn with ab- sorbent cotton and allow to dry in.

 All unhealthy conditions of the skin require constitutional treatment. Bathe daily. Keep your body As sweet and clean as is possible.

HELPS FOR MOTHER

Let the children, even the baby, live out of doors during these few months. The scooter, auto, bike" and coaster are all good outdoor toys, but when the hot days come such violent exercise is not desirable. The toy shops are showing new line of autos with a dumping device that Is great sport, and while sonny is sitting in shady spot digging soil to transfer in his truck, sister can quietly amuse herself with sand toys in the pile of sand in a shady corner. There is an unusual variety in sand toys on the shop counters this summer, enough to amuse all the kiddies in the family for long hours.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1923-07-29

On very hot days keep the children on the shady porch, dressed in the lightest apparel, and add to their coolness by letting them play in water. Half fill the babys bath tub with water and let the little tots Lathe their rubber dollies and float their toys. The boys will delight in sailing their boats. This oecupa tion
The Birmingham age-herald., 1923-07-29

If you are spending the summer where there is fresh water bathing, see that the children are out of the water within one hour before and after meal. If they are at the sea sl ore this interval should be from one and @ half to two hours.

WILL NOT STAND MlNGLlNG
Some Danger in Combination Of Potash
Tablets and Potassium
chlorate.

At merry party in England, one OF
the guests suddenly found himself
emitting n shower of sparks. The
place Of origin was his coat pocket.
Everybody laughed, and thought II
was well-contrived joke. But 1t was
not. That was proved by burned
Jacket, chair, carpet, and hand. In
vestigatien showed that the guest had
in his pocket a packet Of potash tab
lets. Also he had there box of
safety matches.
Now safety match is coated with
potassium chlorate, and 1t strikes when
1t is rubbed against phosphorus paint
ed on the box surface. But potash tab
lets are made of potassium chlorate,
and so they, too, are likely to strike on
a safety matchbox. This is what they
had done. Some Of them had escaped
from their packet and were loose in
the jacket pocket, ready to make a
fireworks display II they rubbed against
the matchbox. If you carry a safety
matchbox, be careful what else you
carry in the same pocket. Mind 1t is
not potash tablets for sore throat,
or you may "go Off" unawares In pri.
vate fireworks display.

went about his work, glad with the
thought that he finally had got rid of
that dog.
Two weeks later, Rugenstein was

heard something scratching on the
door.
AS he opened it, out bounded three
