Health Hints

lung Affections. Coughs are, when
persistent. ever purely local in char
acter. Their cause is constitutions.
and therefore should be constitu-
tionally treated
In treating coughs one must ascer-
tain the cause of the cough. There
are various kinds OF coughs. When
one has a cough without catarrhal
discharge of any kind, it should
really be termed a symptom that ac-

When a co.Eh is present and II

chial tubes, lungs or pharynx a 1nu
cuous discharge, it performs benef-
cient purpose, and it is needless to
try to remedy il. But a dry cough
which apparently never accomplishes
anything should be overcome as
waste of energy and an irritation of
the throat. When cough is simply
induced by an irritation, and there
is no discharge resulting from it, 1t is
frequently caused by a defective con
dition of the nerves. Many persons
acquire the habit of coughing when
the slightest irritation occurs in the
throat. This continues the slight in

do raise a large amount of phlegm,
but which require an unusual amount
of coughing in order to bring up this
unpleasant substance. In nearly all
cases this is not especially necessary.
If one will follow the proper treat
ment in the way of fresh air, diet and
exercise, the coughing will be re-
duced to a minimum; in other words,
the coughing will not be occasioned
until the phlegm is ready to come up
when ii can be easily and quickly
discharged.

or have achieved, success, and a great
degree of happiness.
There is no need. however to remind
you OF your many virtues or good char
acterstics; you are quite conscious of
them yourself; so conscious, in fact as
to make your friends dub you conceited,
and this is the chief defect that de-
tracts from your personality.
You do not ''blow your own horn;
you attract attention to your merits in
your little habits, your individual lido
syncracies cry aloud to one and all that
you are very satisfied with everything,
and, above all, with yourself.
1t is fortunate you possess a good
background, and do not rely on your
self advertisement to make your way in
the world, as Ruskin says: "Conceit
may puff q, man up, but never prop
him up
You are quite successful in your busi-
ness, although, if you only realized at
their intrinsic worth your qualifications,
you would possibly shine to greater ad-
vantage in a political career, where ex-
aggerated values are more powerful as
sets than in your private life.
In your home life you are contended
or make yourself so, as your conceit
never permits You to admit that you
make mistakes, and you would rather
suffer a worry in silence, than advertise
to the world that your judgment has

A Constant Reader-It is best not
to treat the skin, especially for these
pits left from pimples, but to give the
complexion good general care and see
how much of this trouble will disap-
pear as you effect the restoration.
Your skin has been abused because
it has been the medium for keeping
your system cleared, so you will have
to build up your health and be most
particular about your digestion. When
this is right you will not have an
oily skin.
Drink plenty of water, take full
warm bath daily and use the little
bags in which there is oatmeal and
powdered CASTLE soap. when washing
the face. A few drops of tincture of
benzofn in the rinse will help much to
close the pores and relieve the oily

troubles must be cured and that is in

The sleeveless tweed jackets have

them especially because they smack
so strongly of England. In tho sketch

black silk braid. and worn with a
gray crepe skirt. a white crepe de

Sometimes these sleeveless jackets
are made of striped flannel - and
these too, are usually bound around
with braid. Pockets play an impor-
tant role with them. On the straight
jackets the pockets are straight, but
on a certain interesting waistcoat
pointed in the front like a mans

Doing Over" Your Rooms.

When, in the midst of spring house
cleaning, it suddenly comes to you
that you are tired of a certain room
as it is, you begin at once to wonder
how it would look "donc over

close an ally they have in color, when
it comes to rdoing over" a room-oT
the whole house. Color. more than
any other one thing, will help you
to make your room appear larger,
smaller, warmer, lighter, just as you
like.
If it is a northern room you are
redecorating and refurnishing. your
effects should not be cold, but warm
and sunshiny, as those produced by
delicate yellows. oranges, buffs,
creams and pinks.
For your southern or western room,
which is flooded with sunlight, you
will, on the other hand, want cooling
effects. These you can achieve by use
Of color schemes worked out in
greens. blues OF layenders.
For your eastern room you may
allow yourself wider choice, since a
room with eastern exposure can stand
either cold or warm colors. Ivory,
tan or gray tones, being neutral, are
good for either warm or cool ex-
posures.
But perhaps your difficulty is that
one of your rooms is too dark. 1t
will seem much better lighted if you
use light-colored wallpaper and hang
ings. White paper gives so per cent

Gentle Sister South Wind blew with
her soft breath on the snow in the
Green Forest and il melted. Sweet
Mistress Spring brought warm show
ers and these helped to melt the snow
Everywhere there was running water
the water from the melting snow run
ming down to the Laughing Brook
And the water rose and rose and rose
in the Laughing Brook until it was
quite to the top of LIE banks. And
then because there were no banks to
hold it in, it crept out on both sides
further and further out across the
Green Meadows.
Two days after ne had moved over
to his castle in the bank because he
could no longer live in his house in
the Smiling Pool, Jerry Muskrat re-
in all his life. He had been asleep.
He had been asleep for some time.
When he awoke he thought he must
still be asleep and dreaming. There
was water in his bedroom! Yes, sir.
there was water in his bedroom,
Never could he remember such a
thing happening before.
When he was sure that he really
was awake and not dreaming he
guessed that there must have been a
great rain and that the water had
worked down through the grass roots
into his house. You know that med
room of his was just under the roots
of the grass He started at once to
go down his tunnel that led out to
the bottom of the bank of the Smil-
ing Pool. Then Jerrys eyes opened
very wide, that tunnel was full of
water! In fact, the water was run
ming into his bedroom from that tun-
mel. He turned to his secret back
door that opened out onto the Green
Meadows. Water was running in there
also. Jerry hurried out that back
door. once outside, he blinked and
blinked and blinked and blinked. This
wasn't the world he was used to at all.
There was no Laughing Brook and no
