The Scent, magenta, commemora-
tive for the sesquicentennial of the
Constitution was released at Philadel-
phia on Friday and in Washington

and probably will be regarded as the
most notably beautiful stamp in many
months.
Further issues in celebration OF the
basic charter of American liberty may
be authorized, but no decision about
them has been reached as vet.

People May Be Divided Into Groups
According To Factors In Their Blood

Further studies made on blood
groups have shown that they are

beings have special arrangements OF
their blood groups.
A person can transfer only one
OF these factors 10 his child. II the
blood group 10 which a child and

CONDITIONING YOUR GUMS

since IL became de rigueur among

preventing decay and loss Of the
teeth. Perhaps the best massage u
that which the gums get when one

raw cabbage. lettuce, celery, rad

gums with the clean finger. Least
valuable manage OF the gums rs the
casual manage they get when one

When Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Miller
have an argument about the pros
and cons Of thumbs IN babies
mouths, or the evils or benefits OF q
"pacifier." It's right down TO our
level and we take sides with Mrs.
J. or Mrs. M. and pull for all we're
worth.
But when learned gentlemen
with all sorts Of X. Y. Us after
their names, go TO bat over the
question, then IL leaves us help
less. And this In just about the
way the land lies now. They get
right up In meeting and dare each
! other TO prove their points. To
wit, whether a little pink thumb,
or a sugar teat, as the mammies
used TO call them, or even q fool
or Of soft rubber upon occasion,
will push out the teeth, pull In
Jaws, cauge throat trouble and

Ripe for Serving
II they cannot decide 1t among
themselves, and tell the rest OF
lis where to get of In these mat
tcrg, what are we TO do?
Now wouldn't put up a sweet
little clean pink thumb against
rubber gadgct that lies about on
the floor now and then for the dog
TO lick.
II there is anything in the
world that makes a baby look

something or other, IL 10 q nozzle
stuck into his mouth TO keep him
quiet. And q ring Of celluloid
and q tassel, and he looks just
ripe to be served imp la piglct

But when 1t comes TO a thumb,
bad as IT Is, and ] know II III,
for all the soft little tissues VI
throat and nose, I find myself
saying, well, It's Just a baby for
you. They've always done 1t and
always will"
And I've known pretty chronic
suckers TO come out OF 1t during
the second year, with teeth as
straight as tenpins, and ne'er o
sign Of any other trouble. While
there was Brother All who wore
everything from metal miits TO
bitter aloes 10 keep his thumb
out Of his mouth, and Brother
AIS teeth will certainly have TO
be "orthodontized" some day In
order TO help him chew properly.
This business Of thumb sucking
In certainly the most unpredict-
able thing in the world. And
the most contrary. You can't tell
whether IL will or whether 1t
won't lead TO trouble.
Individual Problem
It is best 10 discourage thumb
sucking. But I add, ~ possible.
There are some babies who would
stay awake forever If they didn't
get that comical bit of nonsense
called q thumb into the button
hole of q mouth. Other young
Sters give 1t p quite easily, with
out the benefit Of "stalls" and all
the other unpleasant preventives.
After the second year most babies
give II UP automatically. But II
they don't, then I'd call on ingenuity
and try to get after II.
