ing because the car IL easier to

Regardless OF whether he is clever
or commonplace in his driving, the
man with a new car has a Very
iaudable habit Of trying to keep out
of danger. He is inclined to refuse
to take chances. not merely because
he is thinking OF his own personal
safety. but because he doesn't want
to smash UP his new car.
He is reluctant TO allow anyone
else to handle the car. When one
car is driven by half dozen diff,

much respect for 1t. Even tbs
owner comes to feel he 'nisht al

The statistician would probably
have a grand time figuring how many
minutes, hours and seconds are lost
in the worlds efficient work because
of headaches. How much suffering
they cause Is more important.
The first thing the victim of head
ache should do is to determine the
cause of the headache. If headaches
are usual, a doctor should be con-
suited. 1t Is always best to discover
the source of any pain.
Headaches can follow constipation.
If that is the cause, proper laxative
diet will be the cure. Headache can
be caused by eye strain. An ocuhst
will prescribe glasses.
Headache can be caused by nervous
ness. The reason for the anxiety
will have to be removed, or perhaps
the general health built up so that
nervousness will not dominate. Ask
your Doctors opinion. Eat proper
foods. Live sanely.
Headache can be caused by indiges-
ton. If it Is habitual indigestion,

diet suit your needs. If some one
food has caused the indigestion and

He was punctilious about helping

couldn't help thinking of that, and.
of course, it was important as to just
how much he liked her. OF course,
she would see him Thursday night

Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ETDRED.

Mrs. 7. Fl. F. writes-'I wrote YOU
once before when my baby was few
weeks old and your answer helped
me. NY baby is now 10 months old
and has always been on the bottle,
and as he has not been very Wen i
have kept him off the floor. He has
such weak ankles, They are so small
and when he tries to stand on his feet
they turn over He has had on shoes
for quite a while. In the ones he
is wearing now his toes almost come
through the ends. Should I put on
'twos? / rub his legs and ankles
with alcohol DO you rub the inside
or the outside to prevent boW-legs?
He gets a quart and a pint of milk
day and oatmeal, crackers, potatoes
and gravy, zweiback and bread and
butter. He has never had cod liver
oil. Does he need it? When he falls
over he waits for us to pick him Zip
and he makes no attempt to walk in
his walker"
Answer--In the first place he is too
young to be put on his feet unless he
shows an inclination TO stand himself.
Neither the kind of shoes he wears
provided they are long enough) nor
the way in which he is rubbed with
alcohol has any hearing on whether
he will be bow-legged or not. One
cannot rub on anything which will
strengthen the bones of "a child's legs.
Such strength must come from the
food he eats.
Your child's diet contains far too
much milk and does not mention
fruits or vegetables. both extremely
important in helping to create good
strong bones. Cod liver oil ia abso-
lutely essential in your case. All
the child gets now is milk and
starches. Cut the amount OF milk
down to one quart per day and not q
bit more. Add vegetable soup to the
diet and later sieved vegetables. Give
orange juice or tomato juice daily and
cod liver oil. This should help the
childs ankles to gain strength, so
that when he is ready to walk, he will
be able to.

WE WOULDN'T have believed-if

make such success.
,1We thought the housewives would like
it. We knew they would appreciate at
once how much richer it was in flavor,
how much more delicate in texture. And
we felt pretty sure that they would notice
how much longer it kept fresh and how
much more satisfying it was to the appetite.
But we weren't prepared for the posi-
lively sensational demand for it-even
