value is very often overlooked.
For whitening and cleaning the teeth

This is also excellent for keeping the
breath sweet and pure, on account Of
the strongly antiseptic properties Of

gums.

cleaned after each meal They should
also be brushed every night and morn
ing. 1t is a good plan to gargle, clean
the teeth. rinse the mouth out thor
oughly then drink a glass of hot or
cold water before breakfast. Make
habit to consult dentist at least twice
a year. The use of good mouth wash
and the salt scrub will prove refresh
ing and give you feeling of cleanli-
ness Breath daintiness is essential to
the dainty woman.
Salt rubs, following a cleansing bath
with soap and water. are invigoratln3
and healthful. Use common table salt
and just rub it over your body in Sec
tions, then rinse off with tepid water
or q cold shower if you can stand it.
Or rub the face, neck, chest, arms and
bust with moistened salt and rinse of
with cold water or tepid water. This
helps to keep the skin clear and tones
up f1abbiness. A teaspoonful of salt,

~ HATTERER, the Red Squirrel,
chuckled to himself as he
watched Thunderer. the Grouse,
whir up on his stout wings,
and even as he did so put q
tree between him and hunter and his
terrible gun. The hunter flred and
missed and as he looked about to make
sure that he had not hit, Chatterer
chuckled still more.
"It will take q smarter hunter than
you to get old Thunderer or Mrs.
Grouse" said Chatterer to himself.
"Yes, sir, it will take smarter hunter
than YOU to get either Of those two
birds. They were not hatched yester-
day. They know as much about hunt
ers and guns as you do about them.
Now that they know that the hunting
season is open, the hunter who gets
fair chance to shoot either Of them is
going to be bad for the young Grouse.
Yes, sir, it is going to be bad for them.
Z don't like to think about it."
Thunderer had not been touched by
b single shot from that terrible gun.
He had been too quick for that hunter.
He had lived through too many hunt
ing seasons not to have learned just
what to do and how to do it when a
hunter appeared, He knew just where
Mrs. Grouse was and at once Joined
her. He had found her looking wor-
ried. She had heard the bang of that
gun and she knew just what it meant
The dreadful hunting season had be-

Was it you or one of the children?"
she asked breathlessly.
Thunderer chuckled. ut was me-"
he replied, but I didn't lose feather.
knew exactly where that hunter was
and he didn't know exactly where I
was. So when at last I had to fly I
lodged behind tree before he could
! shoot. Now, my dear, the sooner we
/ get over where the hunters are not al
dowed to hunt the better"
Mrs. Grouse nodded in agreement
I'VE are lucky" said she, that there is
isuch a place But first we must warn
gthe children that the dreadful season
swe have told them about has begun
and that they will not be safe any,
where but where Farmer Brown keeps
hunters away. The poor dears think
sthey know how to take care of them
selves, but they don't. They know
nothing about hunters with terrible
guns. They never have been shot at
and they never have seen others shot"
And they don't believe what we tell
them" replied Thunderer.
Mrs. Grouse shook her head sadly.

~ ETTER not eat that apple

L. II don't like them baked,
mother. I'd rather eat it
well, I'd rather you didn't. You
know you have q sensitive stomach and
I don't want you to eat anything that
might upset 1t. I'll bake some for tea.
Then you can eat one"
Reluctantly, Simon laid down the
shining red apple. He would have de-
lighted in crunching 1t under his teeth,
as apples ought to be crunched by lads
of 10, but his apples had to be baked.
And there wasn't thing the matter
with the child. He could digest nails
II he wanted to do so.
In the college class with me there
was a young man who was isolated
from the rest of us as completely as If
he had been sealed in glass Jar. He
carried a cloth bag tied with tapes. His
books were in one compartment, his
rubbers and raincoat in another. A
package of oatmeal biscuits and some
powders in another. Any chan:e 70 Of
weather, any threat Of any sort Of
weather, and he came to school with
enough baggage to take him around the
world.
He couldn't swim. His mother was
afraid Of the water. He couldn't run or
Jump or even walk fast. He might over
tire himself He couldn't eat with US.
His stomach was sensitive. Wet days
had to be spent indoors, and rubbers,
raincoat, umbrella and gloves had to be
put in service for any forced venture

him yet, standing on the side, looking
lost. forlorm and helpless.
It is one thing to guard child's
health. 1t is quite another to foster Ill
health. Keep putting the emphasis on
sensitive Stomachs, delicate chests. weak
throats, poor nerves and the child will
respond accordingly. His first thought,
whenever he IS confronted by an ad-
venture, will be What will 1t do to my
poor heart. my trembling stomach, my
shaking legs?"
A healthy child should not know he
has such things as stomach, liver and
nerves. The very names Of diseases
should be unknown to him. His con-
Germ ought to be with activity, and
more activity. It is our concern to feed
him, bathe him. clothe him and care
for him adequately, so that he need
the matter. He eats and sleeps and
plays as a matter Of routine. The less
said about it the better.
For the ailing child one must pro.
vide the necessary diet, the essential
routine. But there is no need Of i'm
pressing the illness upon his mind.
Accent the health side. Encourage him
to think Of the time ahead when he
can go his way. free of restricting
dietary laws, free of concern about his
body, save to care for it as all healthy
people do.
Fear encourages illness. It is better
to teach children to take such ups and
downs as come to them with phlloso-
phical attitudes. to adjust themselves to
conditions, while they, all the time.
hold health in their minds. Health
must be uppermost. Illness is an acci-
dent soon over. Let 1t be forgotten.

that such facilities were at hand.
Then there is the time she was In

Institute on her views as to the rela-

She enlisted the aid of some Of the
lawyers in her department to prepare
for her an outline.
On the day the speech was to be
delivered the lawyers advised her
against making it. But she did anC-
way. Her speech was such a success
that she was forced to give an encore.
She refuses to talk about herself.
If personal questions are asked she
quickly shunts them aside with a smile

How 1t Started
By JEAN NEWTON.
That Plain Word "Spoil." F"


Dozens of times every day we use
the word ito spoil" without thought
to armor, violence or to that first
cousin of the word in modern speech,
the "spoils" Of war. Did we but stop
in our familiar speech to look into that
common and, as we think, prosaic
"spoil"-spoil dress, spoil q party.
SPOIL the fun!-it is III the still sur
viving "spoils of war" that we should
find the key to its colorful history.
For integrally ito spoil" does not
mean simply to mar, to damage. to in
jure. No, indeed; 1t means to plunder,
to pillage, to strip one Of its most char
acteristic uses, indicated by stripping
off the armor of slain or defeated
enemy"
The word is derived from the Latin
"spolium," and our use Of the old
fashioned "despoil" takes us closer to
its original significance. Formerly it
was frequently used with "of," as
Spoiled of his kingdom" And aye
shall spoil the Egyptians" meant Eye
shall strip and ruin them"

from his trip to Chicago where he
attended the Century of Progress

tion convention held at Cedar Point,
OF which Mr. Harris was manager.
On large copy of his famous
"Ratateers Wiped Out" advertise
ment which has been given wide
circulation, Mr.. Harris secured the
autographs of number of promi-
nent personages at the convention,
and some theatrical celebrities.
Among them were: H. B. Thompson,
Chicago sales manager for the Cocoa
Cola Co.; Fred Shoemaker, north
western sales manager for Colgate
Palmolive Pete Co.; John F. Car
ney, manager of the Chicago office
for the same concern; l.. H. Peter
