Q-To decide an argument
between my husband and myself,
is it good taste for a man TO
wear black shoes with a brown
suit?
A-Would like first to say to
the husband in this case;
Mister, wear the brown shoes.
You can't win"
AS for the query I think
brown shoes are probably better.

4 DOG expert states that the
"a modern bulldog now used
for a pet is not at all similar TO
the bulldog that in the past used
to fight bulls.
The fighting bulldog, says he.
was a mixture of a mastiff, q
pug dog and a greyhound.
He is probably right
Still when the modern bull
dog gets in fight, he is likely
to grab his opponent by the
nose and hang on.
That is what the fighting bull
dog Of the past was bred to do.

QUESTIONS, ANSWERS

V. s.: Can a doctor detect tu-
berculosis by the use OF steth-
oscope?
Answer. II he is an expert
with the stethoscope, he can de-
tect tuberculosis in large pro-
portion Of cases.
However, the use of an X-ray
film of the chest is much more
certain.
A few years ago an eminent
specialist stated that there were
five positive methods of making
a diagnosis OF tuberculosis.
They were successful in the
following proportions: X-ray 90
per cent: finding the germ in
the sputum, 35 per cent; use of
the stethoscope, % per cent;
history of splitting blood IS per
cent. history of pleurisy, 20 per
cent.

our l7-monthS-old baby little
wine.
First he started with two or
three drops, now he has in
creased it TO a tablespoon He

ished as an infant on wine.
