Exhuustion from the weak ening effects of his illness told on him In the final round, and he dropped back. Smashed Course Record. Upon bis return to American shores, however, Barnes looked like a new man, nnd when the tournament start ed at Washington he gave an Indi cation of what might be expected by breaking the competitive record for the course In the opening round. The lead that he gained over the remain der of the field stood him In good stead, for, playing in the manner that he was, there was no chance of bl3 being overtaken. Ills honors, long de layed, were gloriously won and hand somely desened. "Long Jim" Is tbo type of golfer that may be depended upon to carry his honors with mod esty.

Yet it is more reasonable for an infant to sleep with grown-ups than to use a man's medicine in an attempt to regulate the delicate organism of that same infant. Either practice is to be shunned. Neither would be tolerated by specialists in children's diseases. Your Physician willtell you that Baby's medicine must bo prepared with even greater care than Baby's food. A Baby's stomach when in good health is too often disarranged by improper food. Could you for a moment, then, think of giving to your ailing child anything but a medicine especially prepared for Infants and Children ? Don't be deceived. Make a mental note of this: It is important, Mothers, that you should remember that to function well, the digestive organs of your Baby must receive special care. No Baby is so abnormal that the desired results may be had from the use of medicines primarily prepared for grown-ups.

Probably the Wildest Idea of His Clubmates Would Have Been Wide of the Mark. All the men at the club have been hatching Johnnie Edwards, the Invet erate smoker, for the last week, and there's been much surmising and con jecturing, but Johnnie wonldn't give himself aVay. It seems that Johnnie has held the prize for the champion smoker in the club for ten years. In the last week Johnnie has been seen strolling around the rooms with a dejected, lost appearance and be tween his lips always tbo Inevitable cigarette. But It was never lighted. Nobody liked to ask him questions and he didn't volunteer any explanation, so It wasn't explained until Jimmlo Van Veek overheard him say on the tele phone : "No, you have got to stick to your word now. I swore off If you would, and goodness knows I want ono bad enough, but Doc says you've gotta leave 'em alone for a while. Now be a good little mother and remember your promise." New York Sun.

The Folly of Cheating Nature Many people get the idea that they can keep their nerves on edge and their digestion upset year after year, and "get away with it" They sleep only half as much as they should and never get properly and thoroughly rested.
