But, Richard, it's James party. You

Yes, she is. None OF The fellows

You'll just have to 60, Richard,
whether you want to or not. And
think the other boys mothers will
make them go too.'
All Unconscious
And so it happened. The boys all
went, but they hung around like clod-
hopperS and were about as agreeable
and polite as young Tomcats.
Never had a crowd of boys acted
SO terribly before! They were liter

James mother invite one OF them to

to the various mothers, who in turn
were so chagrined they didn't know

They didn't know that all over
Christendom, and then some, other
groups of mothers were despairing
about other groups Of "ungentleman-
ly' boys who had lost their taste for
girls, just as these were now doing.
And that mothers of girls were
almost as desperate because their
daughters had turned shy and awk-
ward and conscious and lost their
ability to be pals with the boys they
had always played with.
The Old Story
It will always be SO. Boys and girls
play together almost unconscious of
each other until they are ten or eleven
or twelve years old. Then comes the

There Is much misunderstanding
about fevers. Most people are alarmed
at q high fever, but I am usually
pleased, because I realize that fever
Is IN indication that the body y put
ting up fight against disease toxins,
and that the body has considerable
vitality. You have probably noticed
that fevers are more frequently found
In children than In old people. The
reason for this Is that children react
more quickly to toxins than do adults
or those who have become run down
In health.
Fevers burn up the waste and
poisonous material in the system and
clean out the toxins OF physical corr
ruption. II these toxins could be
taken out Of the body and burned up
1t would be easier on the patient, but
nature finds 1t necessary to burn the
poisons where they are, within the
tissues Of the body. and the tempera-
ture rises. breathing becomes faster
fand = copious persptration may break
out. These are only indications that
the body is taking steps toward . cure.
Never attempt to break Z fever.
Rather encourage it. for as soon as
the poisolls are burned up. the fever
will disappear.
It is advisable to drink large guam
titles Of water. as this assists the body
in washing out and eliminating
toxins. Orange and lemon Juice may
be added, but 1t Is advisable not to
use sugar. Do not take any remedy
to cure your headaches. as this will
interfere with the natural eliminative
processes going on.
Perspiration should be induced even
If it Is necessary to supply artificial
warmth by placing hot water bottles
around the body. In every fever 1t Is
advisable to use enemas, sometimes
several each day at the beginning Of
the fever. The temperature should
not be allowed to remain long above
l02.5 degrees and II It rises beyond
this height. cool sponge baths along
the spine and abdomen may be used
ct intervals of about an hour apart.
But II the fever Is below this tenn
perature, tepid or warm sponge baths
shoul1 &c substituted.
There Is very little danger OF .
fatal termination to q fever II these
simple methods are used. Beware Of
any method or drug which will in
terfere with throwing out Of the
toxins which were responsible in the
first place for the development Of the
fever, and be sure not to use any
rich food until the fever Is over, as
1t cannot be properly digested during
. fever and might cause serious
trouble.
The following extract. which Is
from lecture by Robert G. Ingersoll,
may be interesting in showing the
value Of water drinking for fcvers:
"All the advance that has been made
in the science Of medicine has been
made by the recklessness Of patients
I can recall when they wouldn't give
. man water In a fever-not q drop. |

with Jack Of hearts and determines
to establish his club suit. Declarer
leads 2 Of clubs, wins trick with King
of clubs and then leads 3 OF clubs.
II East covers with Jack Of clubs or

Queen Of clubs?
The Error: Declarer covers with
Queen OF clubs.
The Correct Method: There are
five clubs outstanding held by oppon-
ents. They are probably distributed
three and two. Had East held the
Ace Of clubs he would have taken the
first trick. It Is therefore held bv
West. There is nothing to be gained
BY covering with Queen Of Clubs as
Ace OF clubs will in all probability fall
on the second club trick and the re-

example OF how the governor plans conduct his office
for the next two In vetong this bill he made
his first gesture towards fulfilling his campaign pledge

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Sleeplessness


question: Mrs NJ. e. writes: II
have suffered for q long time from
sleeplessness. Can you tell me q
remedy for same?"
Answer: The principal cause OF in
somnia is digestive trouble, such as
excess Of fermentation Of food, which
produces gas pressure against the
heart or diaphragm. Even IL you are
not conscious Of such pressure, It is
sufficient to unconsciously irritate you
and keep you from getting a deep
slumber.
Blood Tests
Question: Subscriber writes: will
you kindly advise us II a test OF blood
taken from the ear could locate q
disease, such as tumor or cancer. and
what organs are affected? Is such
. test possible or plausible?"
Answer: Such tests are not accur-
ate as far as being able to discover
from these tests whether you have a
tumor or cancer. I know the tests
you refer to, and exaggerated claims
are made for them which cannot be

lake) Would you advise a fruit fast

aged, in excellent health.
Answer: II your seasickness is
caused from biliousness, the fruit
fast will be helpful, If taken lust be-
fore starting on your voyage. II YOU
become seasick because of defective
vision, you must secure proper glasses.
II you always get sick and remain so
all during your trips, it is doubtless
because Of the lack of balancing fluid
