HOME NURSING
DOUCHETNG THE EAR

SOMETIMES the doctor te,ls a moth- fS CT to irrigate or douche her child's
 ear, and demonstrates hastily for her the method to use. There is a cer- tain deftness about doctors hands that most women envy a good deal, particu- larly if they have had little experience in such matters.
 Irrigating an ear is a delicate matter and one about which one cannot be too careful.
 It is not in the least matter of pour ing quantity of water into an ear and letting it run out again.
 The ear is delicate organ and 1t re- quires extreme gentleness and intelli- gence, in handling.
 First, the child's nightgown or cloth ing should be protected with rubber sheet covered with a towel. If you have no rubber sheet, borrow the oilcloth from the kitchen table, or fold newspa- pers inside bath towel.
 For little children whose ears have not developed to the same extent as adults, the nurse should grasp the ear gently but firmly and hold it downward and slightly backward while she alloys a gentle flow of warm solution (prefer- ably weak boracic acid) to run into the ear. The flow will be cloudy at first and flecked with wax. Then it will return clear. A little bowl or basin should always be held beneath the

two flirts of my tail for him, and I'd like to tell him so."
 This idea tickled Chatterer. The more he thought about it the more it tickled him. Finally he crept to his little round doorway and put his head out.
 "Whoop!" shouted rough Brother North Wind and dashed a handful of stinging, icy snow in Chatterer's face. Chatterer pulled his head in in hurry. When he could get his breath he had quite lost his temper.
 "You think you are smart, don't you?" he parked angrily, taking care to put no more than the tip of his nose outside. "You are nothing but great big bullyi That's what you are--a bully! Just listen to this, Brother North Wind: don't care twist of my whiskers for you or your boosting. You may scare some folks, but not me. Howl and roar all you please; you can't get me. You can't so much as give me bad dream: You can't frighten me, Brother North Windl You can't frighten mep'
 Rough Brother North Wind blew an angry blast in at Chatterer's little round doorway and roared:
 Beware, beware how you defy My rage and strength! If I but try III make you wish before the morn You'd held your tongue or ne'er been
 born!
 'Ha, ha, ha! Idle boasting! Just idle boasting!" cried Chatterer scorn- fully and returned to his warm bed to curl himself up in comfort.

In 6 certain business district where restaurants are rather scarce, a hotel and cafeteria within a block of each other serve c large proportion of the nearby business people.
 The hotel cafe fig good, but exceed ingly expensive. The cafeteria is also good; unusually well-cooked simple food and very reasonable. Both places are patronized largely by men during the lunch hours. But the business in that section employs more men than women so numbers prove nothing. The types fin the two places do prove something.
 The men who lunch habitually at the cafeteria are Invariably clerks, students, artists and operatives from the factories. The women habitues include the ma jority of the business women of that section. Many of them own their own businesses. Among them are the head and owner of e prosperous real estate office, the owner of a smart antique shop, an interior decorator and the pro- prietor of book shop.
 The corresponding type of men lunch at the hotel restaurant. They would probably say that the food Is better there, but they would not be upheld by a number of the hotel employees, who prefer to lunch at the cafeteria.
 The hotel restaurant has, of course, a liberal patronage by women. They lunch there, as rule, with men who presumably pay the checks. It is rare to see a woman lupching there alone or with another woman.
 This condition is fairly typical of con- ditions that prevail all over the country. There is a marked difference between men and women of my acquaintance.
 The average woman who knows any thing of economics does not like to nay a large price for, food which she knows can be bought, prepared and served at a profit far less. She feels 1t rather a needless extravagance,

Little Stories For Bedtime
CHATTERER sCORNs BROTHER
 NORTH WIND
tBy THORNTON BURGEss,

TOR two days and a night rough
 Brother North Wind roared and
 howled and shrieked and drove the falling snow this way and drove it that way through the Green Forest and over the Green Meadows, and had no pity for the little people who lived there. No, sir, he had no pity at all. Not one of them dared poke nose or toes outside. At first a few of them didn't mind. Chatterer the Red Squirrel was one. Curled up in his bed of leaves in hoI- low branch of an old apple tree in the Old Orchard he was thoroughly comfort able. In that same hollow branch was goodly store of corn and nuts hidden there for just such time as this. So it didn't trouble him in the least how cold or how stormy it might be outside. It rather tickled him to listen to rough Brother North Wind boosting of his strength and boldness. His nose turned up wee bit scornfully as he muttered Roar and shriek and howl and boast 1; Here am I as warm as toast!
 Rage as long as you may please;
 I will eat and sleep at ease.
 Other folks may frightened be-.
 But your buster don't scare me-"
 And this was quite true. Chatterer wasn't afraid. Why should he be? There wasn't single thing to worry about. He had warmth, comfort and plenty to eat, and he didn't need to so much as poke his nose outside, no matter how long the storm lasted. To his less for tunate friends and neighbors. Chatterer didn't give so much as single thought. If they were in trouble it was no con- cern of his. It is very apt to be that way with people. If they have no trou. bles of their own they give no thought to the troubles of others.
 The harder rough Brother North Wind blew and the louder the fine icy particles of snow hissed through the bare branches of the trees, the more comfortable Chatterer felt and the bet ter grew his opinion of his own wisdom in laying up store of food while the weather was good and food plentiful.
 "He thinks he is terrible fellow, does rough Brother North Wind. Just listen to him !'' chuckled Chatterer. "But he doesn't scare me bit. He may blow his head off for all I care. It would be very different matter if l were out where he could get at me, but I'm not. I'm right here, snug and comfortable, and for all his boasting he can't get at me-and he knows it. That is the result of using a little sense in choosing home. There is nothing quite like being prepared. When I chose this home I knew what I was about. Now let that fellow buster and brag and blow till he gets tired. I don't care

4 Recipe For Success

There's lots of money talk.
 They tell you how it's done. You read it in the ads.

 And half the battles won! Now some folks tell you thisJ
 You hark with joy unfeigned. And some folks tell you that They have 1t all explained But sslt yourself to you,
 And half the way is gainedI If you have confidence
 In your powers that are, The man with whom you talk Will trust you just that far. Just sell yourself to you,
 And swing up to your star! They talk about success;
 They tell you how it's done! Remember what I say,

We Women
ExTRAvAGANT EATING

T HERE seems to be rather preva-
 lent theory that we women are in-
 clined to a more needless extrava- gance than men. This is a debatable question, but it would take a long and hot debate to settle tiff it ever could be settled.
 On one point, however, am pre- pared to challenge that theory with out fear or favor. That is on the point of extravaganza fin food. We buy better and spend less, not only in marketing where at least we have moro practice. but also when we eat at restaurants and hotels.
