Curl upward as bare fields are singed

Yet just last night the ground was

Literary Club ; Officers Are Named
Mrs. J. Franklin Mills delightfully
entertained the Thursday Literary
Club yesterday afternoon at her home
on Belle street.
There was a hundred per cent at
tendance and a good deal of bitsiness
was completed.
Thep.Tognam was in charge of Mrs.
George V- Boyd, and following the line
of the. year’s study, Mrs. Boyd pre
sented as her topic for consideration,
“Elizabeth Barrett Browning", poetess
and authoress.
Mrs. Browning was born in London
on Wimpole street, and was the old
est of 11 children.
Mrs. Boyd,; in a most . interesting
manner, brought out the trials and
vicissitudes of her life during the
years of semi-invalidism, occasioned by
a horseback accident, and her roman
tic marriage late in life to Robert
Browning, also a poet. Part of tnv.
play, ‘The Barretts of Wimpole Street"
by Rudolph Besier, was reaed by Mrs.
Boyd.
CHILD GUIDANCE
By Frank Howard Richardson, M. D., F. A. C. P.
Colic
Why is it that, every child has to
have colic —ten-days’ colic, six-weeks’
colic, three-months’ colic? s it indi
gestion, or too much food, or failure
of food to agree,or what? And do
“colicky” babies grow up into strong
boys and girls?
Opinions change, fortunately among
doctors as well as among folks in
other walks of life And opinions have
changed radically in the past few
years about this matter of the neces
sity of babies’ having colic. And here
is what a great many doctors believe;
and their expereienece seems to have
convinced'them of the correctness of
this belief. „ ... ,
Give a baby as much as he wants
to eat, of a food somewhere near what
is appropriate for him, they say, and
that baby will never have colic. Not
■‘as often as’’ he wants to eat; but “as
much as"—quite ad ifferent thing, you
3ee. Yet many doctors still believe that
colic comes from overfeeding. Who is
to decide, when these wise men dis
agree?
There is only one authority whose
opinion is absolutely incontrvertible;
and that is—but of course you know
as well as I. t’s the baby himself!
I have never known a baby to take
too much of a fairly suitable formula,
though I have known many to De
given given too little. Try this cure
for ‘colic” some time; and let the baby
tell you whether it is sound, or not.
He will! -
Questions and Answers
Question —I have been told that un
less parents agree about everything
they cannot expect to get obedience
from theier children. It seems to me
as though my husband and I do not
agree on anything that concerns our
children; yet we are devoted to each
other, and 'never wrangle. Are we
hopeless?
Answer —Maybe that’s why Provi
dence gave us two parents—so that
we’l have an average, and strike a
CW!

East’s Ace took the 10 of hearts,

Dummy ran off 2 good hearts,
bringing matters to the eleventh
trick. Then dummy had tc lead a
diamond, giving West the fourth
trick for his side, but he had to lead
back a diamond, which South won.
If East had bid 3-Clubs. South
probably would have bid and made
3-odd at spades, but he was glad he
d'' not need to do so North ® bid
ding plainly enough showed that
game should not be expected, and it
was possible that North's shift from
diamonds to spades might be merely
a choice of evils.

What should West lead against a

bid both hearts and clubs, while
South ha.s shown both spades am)
diamonds. The answer will be given
tomorrow. A third hand opening hid
was followed by a shift from 1-Heart

2-Diamonds; then North went
Spades.
The program was unusually interest
ing as this play has recently been pre

Mrs. H. H. Harper led the quiz on
familiar quotations and their author?.
It was decided there would be no
program at the next meeting, as the
afternoon would be taken up with a
review of the year’s work and discus
sion of the work for the ensuing year.
The following officers were elected
to serve during the coming year:
President, Mrs. J. Franklin- Mills;
vice president, Mrs. aseph B. Hicks,

The hostess, assisted by her daugh

course with hot coffee during the so

Mrs. Mills guests for the afternoon
were her daughter Mrs. Andrew

Mrs. aJseph B. Hicks will entertain

They don’t mind a bit if their garments

On the other hand there are those who
