A OF GOOD TEMPER

F.! "Ive often wondered why young Mrs. Smith is so ex-
4Aremely popular, for of course you have noticed her great pop
Harity-haven't You, Edith
There is never a picnic in the summer time or a dance or
social function of any kind in the winter to which Mrs. Smith
is not invited. More than that if she insn't there the affair
seems to fall flat and lack sparkle and spontaneity. Even the
children like to have her to their parties. She is surely a gen.
eral favorite and I think I've discovered her charm.
1t isn't that she is unusually clever, for she is really not.
Her conversation is never brilliant or particularly witty. Nor
is she talented; doesn't play or sing. Of course she is not
homely but neither is she beautiful. Wherein lies her charm
then-in her good temper.
. If the car breaks down on the way to the picnic she
doesn't grumble about it but makes the best of it. A blow out
when she is out for a joy ride with her husband, doesn't ir-
ritate her so that she nags necessarily at him for driving over
the glass which was so evident. Nor the shower that comes up
unexpected doesn't make her petulant and sulky because she
fears it has ruined her new hat. The biscuits she burned at din
nr time; these don't annoy and disturb her so that she is
cranky and cross through all the meal.
Women like her because she is never "catty." She can
praise another woman's good looks or stunning gown honestly
and graciously, even if she knows she can never hold a candle
to either.
With the children she never acts bored or picks or snaps
at them continuously. She enters into their play with joy and
enthusiasm.
Yes, it's all because of her good temper. Would that more
women would cultivate that kind OF charm.

BAD BREATH
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets Get
at the Cause and Remove 1t

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, act gently on the
bowels and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through DR., Edwards'Ol
Tablets. The pleasant, sugaT-coated
tablets are taken - bad breath by all
who know them.
DR., Edwards Olive Tablets act gen.
tiy but firmly on the bowels and liver,
stimulating them to natural action,
clearing the blood and gently purifying
the entire system. They do that which
dangerous calomel does without any OF
the bad after effects.
All the benefits of nasty sickening,
eriping cathartics are derived from
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets without
gripping, pain or any disagreeable effects
Dr.. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years OF prac-
tice among patients afflicted with bowel
and liver complaint, with the attendant
bad breath.
Olive Tablets are purely a vegetable
compound mixed with olive oil; you
will know them by their olive color.
Take one or two every night for a week
and note the effect. l5c and SOC.

BILE excitement is being manifested

seeking to obtain membership on

who has served on the board for the
past year 1t is stated upon good
authority that Mrs J Bernard and
Mrs. w. B. Krug also have petit
tons in circulation and will be cana

The question which has created
the interest in the coming election
in this section is that of including
an auditorium in the addition TO
the school which is now being built.
1t is held that the auditorium is a
much needed improvement The
matter has been a bone of conten-
ton for the past year and it is like
ly that in the coming election the
community will turn its wrath loose

know where it stands in the mat

LEGISLATION OF INTEREST
TO WOMEN DISCUSSED

ing the commissioner of education.
The county superintendents of
schools are back of the bill for at
tendance officers where deemed
necessary.
Mrs. Agnes Cromwell, one of the
two women members of the State
Board of Education, was present and
led that part of the discussion per-
tanning to county school attendance
work. A number of the county SUI
perintendents of schools were pres
ent, as we'll as other representatives
of the school system or the state.
1t was reported for Monmouth
that since the county attendance Of
ftcer has been functioning there the
attendance jumped to the high per-
centage of 91.68 of the total number
of children in the county last year.
Monmouth was the pioneer county in
this work, the late James A. Scaym-
ser, of Sea Bright, a public spirited
citizen for three years supplying the
necessary $1,000 annually to pay for
the officer. Now the expense is
met by public funds.
Republican State Chairman Stokes
made a brief address and DR.. John
H. Finley. of New York, spoke on
general educational lines, scoring
politics in school administration.
The Republican women will ap-
pear in large numbers before the
senate judiciary committee next
Monday afternoon to urge favorable
action on the bill pr hibiting night
employment for women in factories.
Early in February the senate judici-
airy committee will hear arguments
on their measures pertaining to
educational changes.

Height and Weight

The only indication we have Of he
way children are progressing Is by
comparing their weight and height
with the average weight and height
of children the same age and mark
ing the difference.
Too often parents comfort them
selves when their children are ex-
cessively thin by pointing out the
general thinness Of their family
but this, rarely holds good with chill
dren. Despite the scrawniest, ances-
try, If children r fed right they viii
put On weight. A child does not
have to conform exactly to the
weight and height Of the standard
but he should not deyiats too much
either way.
The average boy at birth weighs
rs pounds-the girl 7.16 pounds; at
six Slonths or sometimes at five it
will have doubled this birth weight
and at one year trebled IL. The boy
baby at birth measures 20.e inches;
the girl, EOS inches. At one year the
boy will have increased to 0 3-s
inches, the girl 27 7-s inches

were not so tired, but somehow she
just wanted to go to bed herself.
Alice was having her bath. Laide
thought that was a nice quiet way
of getting her to take kindly to the
idea Of going to bed. Alice was TAX
ing very kindly to 1t, too. She had
been bathing ever since 2 o'clock,
and it was now 8. How did her
mother manage to get her out and
into bed, without bowls of rage and
disappointment? Laide was really
trying to put the children to bed
herself, SO her father could enjoy his
evening paper. He looked tired to-
night. Perhaps he missed mother or
perhaps the supper hadn't been
quite right. Well things were moving,
anyway. and so far no accidents.
But how was Alice to be pried out
Of the tub? Adelaide plead and
cajoled, in a lowered voice, but Alice
only smiled, and said she was al
most through, and kept on beatifl-
caliy soaking in the tub.
In the meantime, where was Bob
by? The big sister was anxious, for,

there wasn't a sound in the house.
