 They discovered first of all that William was too sensitive. Dad blamed it on Mama and said he was like her people. Billy cried so easily when Daddy parked at him. He stopped tossing him to the ceiling and stopped bringing drums and horns.
 Then it began to dawn on Fath- CT and Mother that Billy was afraid of things. That made his parents heart-sick. And, after while, they discovered he had terrific in- feriority complex.
 Then he said he sawAa "horsey in a twee," and said he failed down because the bush jumped at him." Mother could not stand that and spanked him. So next time he said he hadn't taken any jelly from the table when he had.
 Now, both parents agreed that William Jones Smith, Jr., was about the most heart-breaking child a couple could have. He didn't try to keep clean. NO PRIDE. He didn't want to win. NO AMBITION. He was afraid of his shadow. NO COURAGE. He told fearful lies. NO HONESTY. He cried. NO SPUNK. Oh, what a disappointing child.
 And poor Billy never knew about that yardstick and how he never measured up to one foot of it.
 You see, his parents had him all planned out, that he was to be this and that and the other thing.
 What they did not think of was that they had a nice little boy with a pattern of his own.

OBSTACLE TO PRoPHYLAx1s

VbSIANAE 1O4 O4EHUfHILAAAS
 Physicians all know how difficult 1t is to persuade patients to seek proper medical treatment early enough in the course of such ill., nesses as pulmonary tuberculosis, diabetes, nephritis, arteriosclersis and even cancer. to check or modify the progress or the severity of the disease as effectually as time ly treatment can. It seems to be human nature to gamble against the chance that the comparatively mild impairment of health in the early stage of such illness is serious enough to warrant thoroughly med- ical investigation and rigorous ad- .herence to the regimen prescribed by the physician. Then, too, there as always a nostrum or two the victim wishes to try.
 If patients in the incipient stage of the common organic diseases so reckleSsly procrastinate, it is per-.
 hapS not so remarkable that people | 6 do not say patients as yeti with the unlabelled manifestation of nutritional deficiency generally drift
 along without the slightest endeavor l to do anything to correct the de- ficiency, until they develop definite symptoms which, in their opinion. call for remedial measures of one kind or another.
 I have observed this human trait
 at first hand in many instances. People who have no particular com
 plaint, yet are unquestionably below par in health, functional perfor-
 nance, tone or v-i--te, will very of-
 ten make brave start on cor rective regimen which promises to
 build up vite for them, and after
 week or two drop it or just for get it. This is understandabl when | the corrective regimen demands &C., tive attention on the part of the individual. But, by gravy even when it consists merely in taking week | ly drop or two of iodine, daily quart of milk and a ration of the essential vitamins with breakfast, they contrive to funk it.
 Aw, come, now, boneheads, can only tell you what the medicine is and how to take it. I can't come around every morning and tap you on the shoulder and say, Horace or Anhedonia, shall I take it for you, too?
 Probably my general health and vite is in the upper brackets. It ought to be, after all the thought and care have devoted to it these many years. Nevertheless I enjoy chewing my ration of D and B. complex with breakfast every morn ing, for I ascribe to it the difference between the excellent health en- joy and the flair" health might have had without it. And still, still there are occasional mornings when I became so embroiled with the proof f-readerS over some prank played with my copy that thrust even the days vitamin supplement aside to give me room to bang the table and take. it out on my first wife who still takes her meals at our house. It abashes me when, just before I finish breakfast in a great f1uster, the lady reminds me I haven't had my vitaminS.
 Oh, well. every bowler rolls one wrong bias now and then.

 Take along on vacation a prep aration to take the sting out of sunburn as well as a sunburn pre- iventive. Even the most cautious va cationist is likely to over-estimate the amount of hot sunshine he can take at one sitting.
 Keep tiny compact of cleansing pads and an even smaller compact of deodorant powder in your purse during summer months. It's a mis- take ever to put fresh makeup on over stale. And rgeular use of a deodorant powder, in addition to weekly applications of an anti-per- spirant, will insure. complete dainti- ness every hour of the day.

Please explain why arterial blood is not given in transfusions? Venous blood does not seem to offer all the advantages the oxygenated, purified arterial blood has, for the recipient. (N. T)
 Answer Search me. Your point is well taken. Perhaps donors are reluctant to take the chance of gangrene or other serious conse- quences of injury to an artery. Ar- terial blood would be greater boon to the recipient than blood from a vein, of course.
