Disturbed Sleep

Danger Ahead"

J. II. Hanford, 7155 Yale avenue.

have been troubled with gravel. Many
times it would cause me to get up
eight to twelve times at night, and ie

Initiated Buchu is not patent medi-

In the winter when green vege-
tables are hard to secure and the milk
is from cows fed on grain; it is i'm
portant to supplement the usual diet
with small quantity of cod liver oil,
one to three teaspoonfuls about one
half hour after two meals.
Second, By Plenty OF Sunshine.
Make the most of all the sunshine
there is by having the children out in
good weather when the sun is high.
Third, By Plenty Of Fresh Air, Day
And Night.
Windows should be open at night,
but keep the child protected from
drafts. If the child develops cough
close the window and provide ventila-
ton from the next room. Do not have
the day time temperature of the
child's room over 20 degrees.
Fourth, BY Dressing The Child Ae-
cording To The Weather.
Have additional clothing on when
the child goes out. The amount of
clothing should be determined by the
temperature, not by the season. The
baby's feet should be kept warm at
all times
Fifth, By Care In Bathing.
A cool sponge and a rub afterwards
with a coarse towel are stimulating
and helpful.
eve cannot over emphasize the i'm
portance Of protecting the children
from infections. Most infectious dis
eass common in infancy and childhood
are spread through the secretions of
the nose and mouth. Therefore, a
baby should be protected from this
danger by keeping him away from
those who have colds, coughs and fe-
vers. A little vaseline in the nos
trils at night is helpful in the winter.
It is especially important that those
suffering from colds, or the various
infectious diseases should be careful
that they do not cough, or sneeze, or

Yes, Sir, P. A. is right there with the
Pollyanna stuff. Sunshine, gladness, the

Prince Albert is the cheeriest, chummiesr

MORE ON HUNTERS

they succeeded. Thus two day rest
was necessary before starting for
sheep. This time they went on the
other, or east side of Lake Clarke,
having only three miles to pack be-
fore rowing up Brooks, or Koutrashi-
buna lake. The scenery in this re-
gion, the boys praise unsparingly.
They compare the narrow sixteen
mountains rising abruptly on each
mile glacial lake, and it's rugged
side, with the beauties of Louise and
the Rockies.
Though they saw plenty of ewes
and lambs, the weather was too fine
to have brought the rams from their
lofty peaks, and none were even seen.
AS a chartered boat was to meet
them on a certain date, the time was
limited and very little Of the sheep
country could be covered.
After returning to Taualiau point,
Easton and Finlayson enjoyed de-
lightful two days of duck shooting
on the Chilitna river. They were &C
companied by old Joe Kackley, truly
one of natures noblemen. Mr.. Fin
layson says that he has never been
on a trip with finer companion.
The trip out from the Lake Clarke
was made in fast order. Three days
saw the party at Hanna from which
place they packed over to Hanna
bay. Here they ran into snow
storm and a strong blow which pre-
vented the gas boat from crossing
the Inlet. Here the hunters had their
last camp for five days. When the
boat finally arrived the party was
treated to fourteen hours of Cook In

WHEN THE WHEAT rs
BEAUTIFUL
by Mrs. Walter Ferguson

Over the Southwest, day and night, there sounds
the hum of the threshing machine. The plains are
utterly beautiful The vivid green Of young corn, the
gold of ripe wheat and odorous purple of alfalfa
blossoms
There is something especially glad about the
harvest season. When drives the country and
looks at the shocks like small golden
IN mathematical precision the yellow stubble
gets, somehow, sense of contamination.
And If the casual onooker receives this impression,
how do YOU think the farmer must feel, he who has
plowed the sod and sowed the grain and watched the
rains and winds and sunshine visit his precious fields?
For in a farmers life there is many slip twixt
cup and lip So many times his wheat looks full and
fine when in thirty minutes a hail storm may come
and ruin it utterly So many many times his corn
stands high and beautiful when the soaring South
wind can wither it in a day.
If each Of could live through only one such
period of suspense while maturing, in which
the farmer dwels every year could better apprec
ate the toll and fear and hope that goes from human
heart into of grain. What days Of and
what nights of dread make the lives of so many
OF the men and who produce our foodstufs.
II we could only comprehend this fact, might be
more anxious that the agrcuturists receive larger
share OF wealth and of the luxuries which
now go persisenty to parasites and nonproducers
You women who have servants and conveniences
and who lounge about leisurely in luxurious rooms,
should while the harvest is those sisters
of yours-who cooking and washing for harvesters
and who toll each day for longer hours than the men
put in, that the wheat may be saved-the wonderful
wheat that feeds ALL And there are many OF these
women who will inevitably the crops fall far short
OF expectations. who must lay aside their hopes for
twelve months and contemplate another year or toll

Too Optimistic

When he says that AL Smith will
sweep the country two years hence
with prohibition and the World
Court as the chief issues, you have
no other choice but to put Judge
Olvany down as a confirmed opti-
mist, or as having lived in New
York too long to appreciate the SEN
timent and feeling of his own party
An anti-World Court plank by del
egates who cheered Wilson when he
fathered the League of Nations, and
a wet plank by delegates who come
from the dry South and the men Of
Smith after the bitterness of two
years ago-how can any one figure
1t that way?
I am for modification of the Vol
stead act. but I do not expect the
Democratic party to come out for
it in 1928, or the Republican party
either.
Such vital changes Of opinion as
that would represent do not come so
rapidly.
We have long debate before us
and we might as well recognize the
fact.
We might as well recognize the
fact, too, that we need long dis
cuss,on to alter our liquor laws and
not make them worse.
