One is rather shocked in this day of athletics and fresh air to know bow prevalent neurasthenia is among youn? girls. One is constantly hearing of nervous breakdowns while girls are still too young to know the meaning of nerves. This condition has been laid at the door of the school life by emlnentautborlties. It seems that the practically contin uous time table of the school life of tbe present day is responsible for tbe development of nerves. Girls over trained in athletics and in the class room develop a restless Incapacity to Interest and occupy themselves satis factorily when they return to their homes. '. , To this grinding and pushing is also due the fact that valuable knowledge of character is so ill assimilated that it fails to make life a comprehensible and interesting whole. The failure is a serious defect in any system of edu cation. It is equally injurious, on the other band, to nil a girl's life with such a continuous round of games and les sons that tbe knowledge absorbed from both has no time to be digested. The modern girl undoubtedly needs more leisure. The art of assimilation is what will make a girl into the competent, self reliant woman who will be able to en Joy applying what she has learned to any circumstance she may find herself In, one who will be able to regard all forms of athletics in their proper pro portion and not become morbid 4f she is withdrawn from their influence. One cannot quarrel with games as a means of exercise if they are not car ried to the extreme, but that seems to a great extent to be Just the tendency of tbe schoolgirl's training. Consequently' educators are begin ning to see tbe advantage of giving girls proper exercise by means of prac tical work. Tttere is a satisfaction in it that cannot find a counterpart in games. . . , The Hay Pillow. "I wish mothers would, first of all, throw away those feather pillows and wool mattresses which their children sleep on and substitute bolsters and beds of bay. It would cost only about 10 cents, and think of the wonderful relief," remarked a well known physi cian. "The profuse perspiration of n child at night would be done v away with.

' Nursaryfeuggastion. For children's rooms and night nurs eries pale pink and white is a delight ful combination, and while striving to have everything as dainty as possible one must avoid unnecessary finffiness. remembering that afl draperies. tc.. will be paying frequent visits to the laundry. Suggestion to Mothers. ' If your child's permanent teeth come through irregularly and overlapping they should be straightened. It is bet ter to remove a tooth if overcrowded, as this condition produces decay. Care of the Baby's Feet. Too much care cannot be given tbe baby's feet Tbe littl child's foot is naturally pretty, but it is so soft and pliant that It is easily molded, and an ill fitting, badly made shoe will only too quickly deform it and twist it out of shape. Tb shoes, regardless of whether they are buttoned or laced, must not tie too tightly fastened or the circulation of the blood will be imped ed. It is a good plan in summer to al low the baby lo go barefoot as much of tbe time as possible about the home. This allows the foot to grow naturally. Children's Name. Some parents seem unable to resist the temptation to make a Joke with the Christian names of their children. A certain register testifies to the ex istence of a Minora! Waters, a Frosty Winter and an Alfred Days Weeks. There is something to be said in favor of naming children in the order of their arrival Primus.. Secundus, etc. but it is unfortunate for a well known Canadian named Cumber that it should have fallen to bis lot to be Quintus, for his name is always ap pearing in the papers as Q. Cumber. Encouraging His Appetite. "When I have any difficulty in get ting my boy of three and a half years to eat his food at the table we start a little game." said a clever mother re cently.

Tiberius at his death left H1S025. OO, which Caligula spent la lew than ten months. Health and Beauty Queries Dy Mrs. Mae Martyn J. V.: Because of a lack of proper nourishment your, hair is dull, brittle and splits at ends. The only way in which to overcome this is to massage the scalp vigorously two or three times each week for a while, using a quinzoin tonic. This arouses the sluggish cir culation and so energizes the scalp tis sues and hair sacs that healthy activi ty follows. The result is dandruff or excess oiliness disappears, the scalp grows soft and pliant and the hair be comes brilliant and fluffy and grows in abundantly. To make the tonic, mix a half-pint alcohol with a half pint water and into this pour an ounce quinzoin and your tonic is ready. R. &.: Impoverished blood causes the tired, worn feeling and that life less complexion. What you require is a tonic and energizer to cleanse the blood and tone the system. Get an ounce of kardene at the drug store and dissolve it in a half-pint alcohol, then add one-half cupful sugar and hot water to make a full quart. Take a tablespoonful before meals and you will soon notice a return of health and energy. Mrs. Ben.: You can rid the skin of tan and freckles and banish those fine lines by using a greaseless cream-jelly made as follows: To a half-pint cold water add two teaspoonfuls glycerine and an ounce of almozoin. Let stand several hours before using. Apply this cream-jelly after washing and drying the skin, massaging gently, and you will find the skin . is soon freed of blackheads, pimples and other impur ities and grows soft and satiny and takes on a dainty tint of genuine health. Mrs. B. U.: No doubt the greasy creams induced the fuzz to grow thickly on your cheeks. You can eas ily get rid of tbe growth if you get an ounce of delatone from the druggist and mix a little with water to form a thick paste. Spread on hairy surface and after two or three minutes, rub off and wash, and the hairs are gone. Delatone costs a dollar an ounce, but it works quickly and well. E. D.: Long walks are extremely fa tiguing and dieting is torturous. You can reduce your weight by a - much more simple method and at the same time avoid any danger of overtaxation to the vital organs if you get four ounces parnotis and dissolve in a pint and a half hot water. When cool take a tablespoonful before meals. This, vou will find, is a pleasant and sure way to dissolve the fatty tissue with out leaving the skin flabby or wrink led. ' " Miss X.: Your objection to a wet shampoo because of the work entailed will be overcome if you get a package of canthrox and dissolve a teaspoonful in a cup of hot water, then pour a lit tle at a time on the scalp and massage briskly. This makes a pleasing and wonderfully cleansing lather. When the scalp and hair are rinsed you will find both immaculately clean, and the hair will dry quickly and evenly and have a rich gloss and softness. Grace: So long as you use powder you will have an oily skin and other; complexion troubles. because thef minute particles clog the pores andi hinder the work of nature. This sim ple lotion is superior to powder, and' acts as a cleansing agent to the skin:, Dissolve four ounces spurmax in one-, half pint hot water, add two teaspoon fuls glycerine and when cool apply, rubbing gently until dry. The use of this lotion clears the skin of pimples., blackheads, freckles and tan. and makes it soft, smooth and velvety. The continued use of this spurmax lotion overcomes that oily, shiny condition, is invisible when on and does not rub off or spot in hot weather. M. A.: Nature must be assisted it you would jhave brilliant, magnetic eyes. Even though your eyes are dull, they will grow strong and have the sparkle and lustre of youth if you make up and use this eye tonic : Into one pint cold water, dissolve an ounce of crystos. Putting two or three drops in each eye twice daily relieves the smart and ache, strengthens weak eyes, and in many instances does away with glasses. n u a a a a n u B D n u n u a a a n u n u n ii u a a n ii ii u !! 1 1 II II II II I mm nffl TIM I EM On everything you buy.
