Why are dogs rarely found to have

the financiers and brokers would be the
first to recognize the value OF stock

ate a market for it. The natural result
would be an appreciable price set on 1t.
Occasionally there is a sleeper" or
q stock which somehow escapes atten-
ton, but il Is easier to and needle IN

Moreover all sleepers are not low In
price by any means.
It is customary to absorb shares In
a reissue of stock when the shares on
the market fall point or two. For
example, in the new issue one share
is equal to four or i've or more OF the
old ones. II one buys 100 shares at two

Why Doesn't She Gain?

never been able to regain. I have

You certainly have a trusting nature
to take all the concoctions you have
and still be thinking of trying another;
Mrs. NJ What you should do is to go
to a competent physician to have a
complete examination to find out the
reason for your underweight.
You say you have a fairly good appe-
title. Have you ever counted your cal
cries to see how much food you actu-
ally consume? A fairly good appetite
may still be accompanied by undereat-
ing. Not infrequently find that those
who are taking liberal quantities OF milk

and fruits and vegetables are compar-
atively low. You probably need more
cream, bread and butter, egg yolks and
nuts. These foods are all high in
energy value.
As you are underweight you must eat
more than YOU would II normal weight,
but the increase in the food intake
should be very gradual so as not to
cause upsets. But each day try to take
so to 100 C. more than the preceding
day.
Then you should have a nap. or at
least q long rest period, every day and
get many hours Of sleep In well ven
/, tilated room and be out IN the sun and
air at least two full hours every day.
The next thing you need to do Is
to stop taking patent medicines. There
are cod liver oil tablets. authentic ones,
that do contain the active principles
of cod liver oil. but you won't find thesc

think we all know this offended
brother Of whom Solomon speaks. We

In most cases the thing he is offended
about has been exaggerated out of all
proportion Often it is nothing more
than an imaginary slight. Some peo-
pie take ofIense upon the slightest prov
ocation. You have 10 handle them with
gloves. You can scarcely touch them
without offending them.
These easily offended people are
usually very persistent in holding on TO
their offense When they become of

As Solomon says. they are harder TO
be won than a strong city" Try TO per-
guade them to be reconciled, and they
meet you With contentious that ARE
like the bars OF a castle" They make
life miserable for themselves and for
everybody around them.

One Mother Says:
An instructive as we'll as entertaining
game which my four children like to
play is as follows:
Each child pretends that he is a
hunter, and that he goes out to capture
a certain animal. Maybe Tom hunts
for elephants, Robert for bears and
Jane for lions. For whole week each
child gathers all the information he
can about his animal. He can read
about them or ask an Older person to
help him. but on Saturday night he
must tell without the aid of any one
all he has found out. The child who
has learned the most Is the bravest
hunter and is rewarded by having his
favorite dessert for Sunday. They may
choose flowers, birds or any subject OF
interest.
