Castoria is comfort when Baby is
fretful No sooner taken than the little
one is at ease. If restless, few drops
soon bring contentment. No harm done,
for Castoria Is baby remedy, meant
for babies. Perfectly safe to give the
youngest infant; you have the doctors
word for that! 1t is vegetable pro-
duct and you could use it every day.
But it's In an emergency that Castoria
means most. Some night when consti-
patton must be relieved-or collie pains
or other suffering. Never be without
it; some mothers keep an extra bottle,
unopened, to make sure there will al

best to grow that kind of body and
keep 1t clean inside and out. If one
perspires much a good hot scrub is
necessary every day, followed by a
cold shower and rub. A daily shower
and rub. with two or three hot baths
weekly will be sufficient for the aver.
age person to keep sweet.
For those who have rheumatic
trouble our health doctors now rec.
ommend hot epson salt baths two or
three times week. Allow pound of
salts to tub of hot water and soak
the body in it for fifteen minutes. Pat
with a bath towel to remove excess
moisture, but allow the salts to dry
on. This is a good and safe way to
remove surplus fat, we are Informed.
A tired body after a strenuous day
can be restored and refreshed by a
good cleansing bath. 1t takes but a
few minutes and is we'll worth the
trouble. Often a restless baby will re-
lax and go happily to sleep if it is
bathed before being put to bed.
After proper attention mas been
given the body as to cleanliness, we
must consider it equally important to
look after our food. Buying food that
must be handled by market people is
so common and many are so careless
in such handling that every woman
should patronize only those who have
spotless shelves and clean hands and
aprons or uniforms.
Sinks and bath tubs are so hard to
keep white and ringless that extra
care should be used. A small bottle Of
kerosene will do wonders-just damp
en- cloth and wipe the ring around
the tub and it will quickly disappear

erals in che water are common, buy a
bottle of muriatic acid. This is poison

Periscopes for Trainmen

Trainmen on an electric line in Eng
land are to use periscopes to view the
track ahead and behind. Heretofore
the men have looked out through
sights projecting from the side of the
car, but with the enlargement of the
cars recently, this practice became
dangerous in going through tunnels

 The committee finds that most of the drugs and preparations form ing the basis of the so-callcd spc- ciric, cures for drug addiction have not any value in shortening the withdrawal symptoms of making them less painful.
 The quickest and simplest way is to withdraw the narcotic. The withdrawal takes place over a pc riod of three days, during which there may be considerable mental and physical suffering and during which time the patient must have close medical attention. The most humane form Of treating drug ad diction is to withdraw the drug over a period of two weeks, during which progressively decreasing doses are given.
 The disadvantages Of this method arc the time involved he absence Of he favorable psychologic effect or abrupt Withdraway. and the vigi- lance required to prevent the ad- dict from obtaining more of the narcotic.

 Nowhere is the struggle 10 live decently and comfortably so diff cult for those on small salaries. Yet they buy homes, rear families and represent the best in civic consciousness. And, more than any other class, they have made the city the populous, prosperous communi- t. it is.
 There are the dwellers in little cottages on suburban fringes - store and shop clerks, bookkeepers and others of the so-called white collar class. They average at the highest $50 8 week and the showing they make is a marvellous manifes- tatlon Of self-sacriflce.
 The men are those whose grip on their jobs depends largely on per sonal appearance. Their clothes must be neat and well pressed, their linen clean and fresh and their shoes in constant shine. How they manage so well is study in thrift. Nearly all pay dues in some bene- fit lodge or insurance society. They are making small payments on homes, dress their families in good taste and often have a boy or girl at college. There are few who are not paying for an autom obile or player piano.
 Most Of them manage to have pleasant two weeks outing yearly. They visit the theatdrs occupying modest balcony seats, or attend the big movie productions once week. They are seldom in debt and are chief supporters of big savings in stitutions.
