Other causes are constipation, indi.
gestion, prolonged exposure to the
suns rays or to the heat Of badly
ventilated room.
Then an eruption appears on the en-
tire body, on the face and scalp, or on
the scalp alone.
At first this eruption is composed of
red dots or points in a few days they
contain a fluid; and little later the
fluid becomes purulent, the points of
the eruption run together, and we soon
have a number of crusts or scabs, or
perhaps a sheet of scabs covering the
entire scalp.
The itching is continuous night and
day, and there is constant scratching
or rubbing the scalp.
Infectious material is carried by the
nails and fingers and before long the
eyes, nose, mouth and ears and other
parts of the body are sore as result
of this transmission.

the diseases of infants and children.
These few suggestions may also
prove serviceable: Cut the baby's
nails to prevent scratching; cut the
hair; wash out the rectum daily; and
protect the head and face with a thin
muslin cap or bonnet.
Apply neither hot or cold water to
the scalp, and keep the eruption COW

acid, zinc, or starch.
When the scabs loosen, remove them
cautiously and apply mildly astrin-

BECKY

tn HE saucily piquant name of Becky
4 is too generally in use to pass over
as a mere contraction Of Rebecca.
Becky is given in baptism quite as
frequently as Rebecca, and 1t is not
usually regarded as Jewish name.
It comes, however, from the old He
brew word Rabak which means ITO
bind"
The Bible tells us that Isaacs wife,
who is supposed to represent the ideal
of noble wifehood, was named from
this word with the idea of signifying
the firmness of the marriage bond, but
Rebecca was by no means confined to
biblical history. She has named the
heroines of literature down through
the ages.

Wife,a Old Lore Afair

Nothing will ever convince me that
husbands do not hate old love affairs
in the history of their wives Hus-
bands have been trained by wives to-
say they do not care, but they do. If
a woman has been engaged to two or
three men before she finally lands
one, and submitted to their endear-
ments, 1t is bad start.
In Sacramento man quarreled
with his stepson because he ate SO
much butter on his hot cakes. and
the row ended in divorce.
The man didn't object to the but

All this time the Princess had been

long tail, for she thought the only
way to get about on land or in the
water must be to swim.
Princess Pearl sat SO close to the
water that her beautiful glistening tail

from the strangers eyes, SO when he
reached out his hand to help her to

dropped it and stood looking at her In

"Have you no feet?" he asked.
"How do you get about without feet

to the feet of the stranger. Il think

gift from a fairy at his birth, the

beautiful Princess that he wished she
had feet instead of her beautiful tail.
"Oh," she cried looking at two
pretty pink feet in place Of her TAIL
"Oh, / like these queer things, can

The Prince caught her in his arms
and kissed her, telling her she was
the most beautiful creature in the
world and they would be married and
have big merry making at his palace.
That night when the Palace was
still and everyone slept, the Princess
with her mirror crept out of the door

IN THE olden time, long before you

the sea a beautiful mermaid named
Pearl. She had long silky hair as fine
as spun gold and beautiful tail as
glistening and glinting as her hair.
Wherever she swan, she carried

many times day she would sit down
on the ocean floor of white sand and
comb her shining locks.
Princess Pearl had many sisters but
she was not content to swim about

Never again would she leave her
