Health Test Is Given to Freshmen Smith Cole's Hygiene De- partment Try New Ex- periment Narthamptor., Mass. — The Snaith College health knowledge test, an ex- amination comprising 130 practical questions on physical and mental hy- giene, was given recently to 653 fresh- men at -Smith College. This is the first test bf this nature ever -taken -by students of college age. If success- ful the experiment will be generally adopted at Smith and other colleges, .according to the originator of the ex- amination, Dr. K. Frances Scott, of the department of Hygiene at Smith, chairman of the committee on In- formation of the American Student Health Association. The knowledge and,:good sense of the students was tested an matters pertaining to exercise, food, posture, Proper clothing, 9ufflcient sleep, nutri- tion, first aid and mental hygiene. Nutrition bodily mechanics and com- municable diseases were-empbasized. In responding to each question the students were asked to choose the most logical of three answers suggest- ed. Knowledge of bodily mechanics Vas revealed in a choice of whether "the ideal weight for any individual is best indicated by the standard tables of average weights, the current fashion in flgures or signs of good health and endurance." According to the test, appetite was either "an in- stinct telling us what we should eat, an uncontrollable desire always to bo [followed, or a cultivated taste quite controllable." Understanding of mental hygiene was judged by the answer to tbo statement that "ner- vous breakdowns are caused by ex- oessive study, disappointments or fail- ure to solve one's emotional prob- lems." In making the experiment the hy- giene department atressed the fact that what is not known by the student is Pully as important as what is known, -since it. -is largely on the dormer basis that courses in hygiene , isi11- be revised. Quito a number of people died last year in Bnglancl as the result et fall - Mg out of bed; there were 29 males and 47 females, There were also 28 fatalities due to accidents while play- ing laying games.

The trees bear all the year round, and the fruit is in constant demandi, Profits, work out at about $1,000 an acre. There has been =oh publicity given to "pests," like the prickly pear and the blackberry, which' have laid waste vast areas in the Antipodes;, that it is as well to consider the other side of the picture' occasionally. For the lemon, like the two "nuisances"'men- tioned above, is an importation. On balance, the Australasians have benefitted enormously by the experi- ments made in introducing iiew trees and planta. Oranges, like lemons, have proved .a very profitable crop—and apple -growing is one of the great in- dustries "down under." Yet when apple trees were first .planted in. Aus- traliu most people thought the venture was simply silly. MAKING A PEST USEFUL. They changed their minds later on —when the fruit began to appear, and the pioneers reaped the harvest they deserved. The apples grown in West- ern Australia sold for $5 'each. Accidental importations may also turn out well, though,.naturally, we hear more about those that don't. A 'case of the first kind was the straw- berry clover, which obtained a footing in Australia in ra•her a -curious way. _. A piano had been sent out from Ire- land. It was duly unpacked, and the packing was thrown out. But this packing contained seeds of ..he straw- berry clover. They germinated, and. the plants appeared. They found Aus- tral an conditi,ns 'suitable, and the Australians; on their side, found the new arrival useful. So today straw- berry -clover is cultivated in Victoria. Even a plant importationwhichhas been condemned as a pest may be of some value. Prickly pear is cultivat- ed in Corsica and California, and seine experts believe that it niay yet prove useful even in Queensland, where its spread has caused great loe.es. Already a vegetable alcohol on which ears can be run has been ob- tained from it, while the leaves yield a size which will stand up against tropical rain. Baffled Erudition Carolyn Wells, "dean of American detective -story writers," tells why she never had any 'higher education: "I went to high school in Rahway, New Jersey, and wanted to go to Vassar, until I found out they had to make their own bede there. Then that was all off. I thought of Wellesley next, but I discovered that they had to make their beds there, too, So I de- cided not to go to college at all." "The world becomes too much a slave of the present mode, forgetting that there ever was any other."—Win- ston Churchill. Two hours after e, ting WHAT many call "indigestion" is very often nothing but excess acid in the stomach. The stomach nerves have been over -stim- ulated, and food sours. The corrective is an alkali, which neutralizes acids instantly. The best alkali known to medical science is Phillips' Milk of Magnesia. It has remained the standard anti -acid with physicians in the 50 years since its invention. One spoonful of this harmless, tasteless alkali will neutralize instantly many times as much acid, and the symptoms disappear at once. You will never use crude methods when once you learn the efficiency of this more pleasant way. A small bottle is sufficient to show its merit, Be sure to get genuine Phillips' Milk of Magnesia prescribed by physicians for more than 50 years in correcting excess acid. 50c bottle; any drugstore.

A Difficult Point We all want our children to grow up into persons whose word eau be be- lieved. We know that truthfulness is the foundation of all honorable con- duct. Incidentally, it is ultimately the only condition of real success in busi- ness. So we are careful to be truthful with our little ones, and to keep faith with them whenever we make them a promise. But we need not on that account be terribly upset when we first find out a child in some little variation of the truth, A great deal of unconscious cruelty may be perpetrated if we fail to realize that a chIld's intelligence is limited, and that it is incapable of thinking along grown-up lines, al- though it will imitate. Here is a case in point, Molly, aged six, was passionately fond of a Teddy- bear that had shared her joys and •sor- rows from babyhood. He was very shabby and had lost one °Phls eyes, while one ear hung by a thread. Fait- ing to understand that he was the more endeared to his owner by these accieents, an aunt presented brolly with a new and gorgeously colored monkey. Molly, as she had been taught to do, thanked the donor pret- tily; but the moment her aunt's back 'was turned she put the smart new- comer on the top of a bureau and hug- ged Teddy. uhged-Teddy. Noticing that the new toy never ac oompaniecl, the child for a walk, the aunt was told "ho was tired, and had to rest," or that "he had a cold," On being asked the straight question, "Don't you like your new monkey?" Molly raised blue eyes in 'perfect in- nocene0 and said, "Oh, yes. He's per- fec'ly lovely , . . but he isn't very well to -day." "An absolute lie, for she hates the thing," said her mother, worriedly, "and I can't decide whether to scold her for being deceitful or not." Most parents rill praise Molly for the delicate way she tried to avoid giving pain, ratifier than blame her for the <teceit. But is a, hint to aunts to asgertain a r pial! recipient's lviehes before presenting gifts. For children, like ourselves, - have decided prefer- ences.

Many relieve for the moment but they are habit form- ing and must be continued. Others contain calomel and dangerous, min- eral drugs, which remain in the sys- tem, settle in the joints and cause aches and pains. Some are harsh purgatives which cramp and gripe and leave a depressed after effect. Avoid lubricating oils which only grease the intestines and encourage nature's machinery to become lazy. A purely vegetable laxative such as Carter's Little Liver Pills, gently touches the liver, bile starts to flow, the bowels move gently, the intestines are thoroughly cleansed and constipa- tion poisons pass away. The stomach, liver and bowels are now active and the system enjoys a real tonic effect. All druggists 25c and 75c red pkgs.
