Better to
Spare the
Medicine
Preventative Are
Better Than Cures
for Child.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

WHEN a child shows signs OF fall
w ing appetite. has no interest In
his play, is fretful, behaves unlike
himself, don't reach for the medicine
bottle. Take your time.
Put the fretful child to bed, soothe
him by your calm and self-control.
If he says he does not want to eat,
don't press food upon him. Give him
some milk or some fruit juice, If he
will take either Of them. Try to keep
him quiet. If he will sleep he is likely
to awaken refreshed and in his own
mind again. Sleep is great healer.
Let fresh air into his room. Air is
good medicine. Give him all the
fresh water he will drink. That, too,
is good medicine. If he shows no
sign of improvement, If he continues
to be restless and other symptoms
develop, call the doctor. especially If
he has a marked deviation from nor
NAL temperature. But spare the med
icine Let the doctor order it.
When children are bothered with
constipation, don't give them steady
ration out of bottle or box. Con-
suit the doctor about the child's diet.
A healthy child should be able to
get along without purgatives. Their
necessity indicates q lack in the
childs diet, a mistake in his routine
or-rarest of all-some physical de-
feet or disease. Most children, given
the proper diet and trained to good
health habits, need little or no medi-
cine.
Medicine can become habit that
takes the happiness out of its victims
life. Children left to themselves would
never contract the medicine habit.
Their anxious mothers wish it on
them by running for the medicine
bottle at the first sign of the unusu-
al. Make it the last resort instead
of the first and the children will be
healthier.
Prevention Is the better sort of
medicine. Keep the baby close to his
home and family for the first year.
Avoid the cars, the crowded places,
the Fairgrounds where many children
congregate. Colds and other illnesses
are conveyed to infants in such places.
Babies should not be exposed to these
dangers.
Feed the children regularly, hold
ing strictly to the time of the meals.
Don't stuff them. That way trouble
lies. Give them exercise in the open
air, in sunshine, whenever possible.
but don't burn them in sun baths
and don't allow them to everyday.
Fatigue brings on illness. lack of ap-
petite being its usual indication. Skin
that is burned cannot perform its
proper functions, and the functions
Of skin are important to health. See
that the child gets proper rest and
sleep.
Children are inclined to health. 1t
should be our first care to preserve the
health with which they are endowed.
If we do that we need not go to the
bottles and boxes for it. We need not
call the doctor, as we often do, to cor
rect the mistakes we need not have
made had we been thoughtful and
alert.
When you have to give medicine to
O child do so under the doctors Or
ders. Wait for those orders. Nature
will restore a child who is suffering
from his or our own indiscretions.
Rest, clear water and sleep usually
can be counted on to bring healing.
When they fail, call in the doctor and
administer medicine only on his re-
sponsibility.

Y you are young now. And pretty
" And popular. What will you
be when you are 40? When
L you are so? When you are
so? How will you look then? Will
you still be charming? Will people
seek your society or avoid you as they
would be q plague?
When the average woman faces
these questions she begins counting
her calories and grabs her hat and
rushes to the nearest beauty shop, for
the feminine sex has a simple and
childlike faith in the power of diet and
cosmetics to preserve their attractions
and keep them persona grata to their
fellow creatures. Alas and alack. how
ever, a lipstick is q broken reed on
which to lean in ones journey down
the years. There comes a time when
the rouge pot fails and not all the
facials in the world will wipe out the
lines that living has made. Then, in
deed, woman Is lost who has not pro-
vided against age and acquired other
charms to take the place of those of
which Time has robbed her.
When we are young we are even as
God made us, but when we are middle
aged and elderly we are what we have
made ourselves. Almost all young
girls are attractive, but it takes a lot
of work and intelligence and being
perpetually on the job for a woman to
keep herself charming. That is a stark
fact that too many women ignore.
The line of fascinations that made
her q belle at 20 make her bore at 40.
She has to be continually adding to
her stock of attractions and changing
her merchandise If she wants to keep
her public.
A LII of us have had Illuminating
= exeriences along these lines. We
have met, after lapse of many years,
some friend of schoolhood days who
has always stood out in our memories
as an adored ideal. She was so beau-
tiful, SO gay, so vivacious, the life of
every party. She took the prizes at
school. She was the best dancer. She
was voted the most popular girl. She
was tops in everything.
But when we saw her in later life,
what shock! What changel Her
beauty was gone. Her slimness lost
in fat. Her gay laugh silenced. All
that had made her SO attractive as a
girl wiped out as If 1t had never been.
and in its stead a stolid, commonplace,
dull and peevish woman who had lost
the charms Of youth and had not re-
placed them with the greater charms
Of maturity.
And who has not seen the oppo-
site Of this happen, and q girl who
was an ugly duckling In her youth
turn into swan in later life? often
think OF . girl I knew who was big,
and clumsy, with no beauty
to boast Of and so self-conscious and
timid 1t made her seem dull. At
school she was always passed over. ;.
The boys never dated her and even
her own family were half ashamed
Of her and kept her in the back
ground.
But when, she was middle aged

The Old Gardener Says:

There are distinct advantages
in planting hollyhock seed at this
season, as the young plants do
not get we'll above the ground
until the coming of reasonably
cool weather. The seed can be
sown as it has ripened, and should
60 into the ground not over an
inch deep. The young plants
should stand at least 4 inches
apart in the rows. Although the
seeding may be done in the open
garden, it is better to have a spe-
cial seed bed in q sunny place
and where the soil is fairly light.

NEW WORK RELIEF
PROGRAM SET UP
Order on SLABS, 900, 900 Is
Issued by Hopkins to
State Heads.

An order setting up the new 81 ,425,-
100000 work relief program was is
sued TO State W. P. A. administrators
today by Harry L. Hopkins. directing
them to continue the former security
wage. ranging from sl9 to s94 per
month.
With reorganization practically
completed on plans to keep 100000
persons on w. P. A. jobs, Hopkins
order lodges responsibility on State
and local administrators to determine
prevailing wages and the needs of
persons seeking relief work.
Copies Sent by Air Mail.
Copies of the orders, carrying out
the new administrative features in
the deficiency bill affecting relief,
were sent by air mail to all State ad-
ministrators.
At least 80 per cent of the workers
on project shall be taken from relief
rolls, as before, local administrators
being directed that preference in en-
ployment Of workers on projects shall
be given to persons certified as in need
of relief by public relief agency ap-
proved by the Works Progress Admin
istration."
In determining the hourly wage
rates, local administrators will be
guided wholly by the prevailing rates
in their communities, effective July l.
Hours of work are limited to hours
a day. 40 hours week and 140 hours
month, which would keep the
monthly pay within the range of the
former security wage rates. The two
new administrative features added in
the deficiency bill are included in the
instructions issued by Hopkins.
Bonuses Not Prejudicing Relief.
Specific instructions were given that
World War veterans applying for
work relief would not have their cases
prejudiced if they have received
bonuses. Local administrators will
determine the actual need of employ
ment of veterans without taking the
bonus into consideration. If a vet
eran holder of bonus cannot furnish
evidence of unemployment or actual
need or necessity for work relief to
bring in necessary income, he will be
treated the same as any other
individual applicant.
The second instruction was an
order to eliminate from W. P. A. pay
rolls aliens known to be illegally with
IN the United States. Investigations
conducted by W. p. A. showed that
IN last September there were 230 900
Amerlcan-born dependents in relief
families having alien heads without
f1rst papers. There is nc exact census
of the number of aliens illegally resi-
dent in the United States, but police
records have revealed large number
have been on work-relief jobs in the
past.
