Your Baby and Mine
BIZ MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Much has been written about the
menace of thumb-sucking. It arches
the roof of a childs mouth; 1t causes
the teeth to grow out Of alignment
so that mastication is difficult. NAL
nutrition follows because Of the in
ability to chew the food properly and
to eat enough because Of this diff
Guilty. Adenoids are encouraged be-
cause Of the constant sucking.
All these effects are the well known
ones attributed to thumb-sucking, but
heretofore we have laid 1t to the &C.
ton Of the sucking and not to the
underlying real cause, which Is rick
cts. Rickety children are much more
likely to be thumb-suckers than the
healthy child. This is due undoubt-
eddy to the child's malnutrition, his
unsatisfied appetite and the comfort
he gets from his thumb. The reason
for the malformation of the mouth is
because the bones Of rickety children
are soft and easily bent and pushed
out Of shape. Such children are sub.
ject to bow legs and knock knees and
pigeon breasts, all because the weight
Of the body is too great for the soft
bones, and they are bent out of shape.
This happens also to the thumb-suck.
ing child. The soft bones of the roof
of the mouth are easily misshapen by
the constant suction.
All Of this should make It clear that
when a child persistently sucks his
thumb or fingers the first way to
cure it is to be sure that his diet is
correct, that he has plenty Of sunlight,
and that he gets cod liver oil. This
removes the cause of the thumb-suck.
ing, and IL the child is not rickety
the thumbsucking will not cause the
malformations Of the mouth. This
puts thumb-sucking somewhat out of
the class Of habits to be cured, and
puts it into the correction Of diet
class. Surely this should allay the
worries Of the mother who is strug.
Cling to break her child Of thumb
sucking. Correct the diet, so there is
no danger Of ricketts,, and then let the

Service Cards Should Be Artistic
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER

ize always that she IL doing It. Not
only is this bewildering to the passing
tradesman who may have already
filed the order, but 1t Is fncongruous
to see q kitchen need advertised in
the window OF parlor or living room.
The tradesman passing, IL not the
same that has passed that way earlier
in the day, may duplicate the order,
with considerable Inconvenience and
annoyance both to himself and the
housewife.
Are Cards Correct?
Some Of these want" cards. for
such they may be called, often attract
attention to an article not wanted at
all on their reverse side, which under
certain circumstances Is required to
he displayed. 1t is possible. however,
to insist upon having card with the
firms name and article wanted EN-
blazoned upon 1t and none other.
Home. Makers Help!
There seems to be no really good
reason why the cards themselves could
not be designed with some semblance
of artistry. The conspicuous position
in which they are required to be put
would certainly seem to make them
deserving of decorative elements. 1t
is rather surprising that American
housewives, interested in decoration
as they are, do not make point of
seeing that this matter Of their house
keeping duties Is given a more artistic
slant.

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Saturday, August 6.

Through the busiest hours OF tomor'
row benef1c aspects are strong, &C.
cording to astrology.
This should be an suspicious time
to make contracts for advertising or
to formulate plans Of a financial ma
ture.
There Is a sign Of promise to all
who are engaged in literary pursuits,
for Americans are subject to influ-
ences that are most stimulating.
Correspondence Of every sort Is
under a most favorable sway and love
letters should be especially persuasive.
This Is a fairly lucky wedding day
IL the ceremony Is performed In the
afternoon or evening.
Theaters now come under plane
tary rule that is of lucky import and
among early plays more than one big
hit will be indicated.
This is not a fortunate sway for
the Navy, which will be the target
for new criticism.
Some sort of an accident to a battle
ship again is foretold and much atten-
ton is likely to be directed to naval
officers.
This is read as a most helpful day
for ambitious persons and especially

Promoters and all of large vision
have the forecast of great good for
tune in the early Autumn, when
many big projects will be undertaken.
Mars may disturb the iron and steel
industry this month, when foreign
contracts will be of peculiar interest.
Sudden storms will be frequent all
through the month, which will offer
many sensations in the way of
weather.
Persons whose birth date 1t Is have
the augury of a year Of temptations,
for new friends will be especially
strong in leadership, 1t Is predicted.
Children born on that day probably
will be kindly in nature and inclined
toward changes that bring vicissi-
tudes.
