E YOU THE RIGHT SORT ®E,.D.
Mistakes Some Parents Make: By Dorothy Dix
Perhaps there never was a time
When there was such a crying need for
wise fatlie're and mothers, or when
parents seemed so little able to deal
intelligently eyith the child-rearing
problem as now.
When we look, at the young people
of to -day it appears that parent are
divided into two groups; those who
give their children unbridled liberty
and life nse and exert no authority.
over' them, and those who .give them
no freedom whatever and enforce the
tyranny of the Middle Ages over them.
Under the Parental Thumb.
On once side we see boys and girls;
still in their teens, going the pace that
kills. On the other hand, we se'e par-
ent's who are so horrified at what
these uncontrolled youngsters do . that
they put the screw on their own boys
and girls and crush every particle of
pleasure out of their lives.
They will not let their daughter go to.
a party or a dance. They will not let
a .young man come to the house, and
the consequence is that the girl slips
out of the back door and meets him
secretly.
Itis not strange that neither plan
works, for you ruin a child if you are
either too hard or too lenient. Par-
ents must see parenthood as a job
that they have undertaken, and to
which they mush give thought and in-
telligence, instead of going at it in a
haphazard way, doing what is easiest
'to do at the moment and trusting the
results' to luck.
Parents allow their children to be
impudent and disobedient to them.
They never make their children do
anything because it is their duty to
do it. They deny themselves to ° give s
everything to their children.' And
Hien they wonder,' when -the children
grow into Manhood and womanhood,
that they are se1flsh and disrresSeeetful
and idle and of no account. It would
be a miracle -if they were anything
else!
Wrong Upbringing.
The worthlessnees of many rich
neen's sons and daughters is a proverb.
It is''only occasionally that a self -node
man's son is able to step into hie
father's shoes and carry on the big
business that the father has built up.
This Se < not because the boy had not
the natural equipment, but because of
the way he was brought up
I have heard such men say: "I was
as poor as a dog when I was a child;
I never had any decent clothes. I
neveshad a penny of spending money.
I had to go to work when I was four-
teen, and I don't want my children to
go through the hardships that I did."
So he lavishes money as if It were
Water upon his childlren. Many of
them learn nothing but how to be
wasteful. He requires nothing of
them, and they grow up to be idle,
wortnless men, who know no Taw but.
th'e'ir own pleasure.
But if too -lenient parents ruin their
children, so do too -harsh .ones. Par-
ents can no longer exercise supreme
authority over their children.
To a certain extent the bays and
girls are going to do what all the other
boys and girls are doing, because we
roust all live the life of our age.
But parents can modify the effect of
the times on their children. They can
teach them self-control. They can
teach them to take their pleasures in
moderation. They can give diem
standards to live by and ideals to
trugl•e to.

NOTHING TO EQUAL'
BABY'S OWN TABLETS
Mrs. Georges Lefebvre, St. Zenon,
Que,, writes: "I do not think there is
any other medicine to equal Baby's
Own Tablets for little ones. I have
used them for my baby and would use
nothing e1s:.e.',1. What Mrs. Lefebvre
says thousands of other mothers say.
They have found by trial that the Tab-
lets always do just what is claimed
for them. The Tablets are a mild but
thorough laxative which regulate the
bowels and sweeten the stomach and
thus banish indigestion, constipation,
,.olds, eo1ie, etc. They are sold by
medicine dealers or by mail at 25

Every form of travel fell under th
head of pilgrimage: from a leisurel
promenade through rural England to
transmaeine journey which occupi
years. Theultimate goal ,night b
Jerusalem, but a detour throug
Spain, a stay in Venice to witness th
espousal of the Adriatic, and an ex
ploration of the cities of Asia Minor
excited no comment, for time was of
no importance, since pilgrimage was
the most blessed state that man could
be in. . . ...The custom served useful
purposes outside its primary intent.
In an age when newspapers were un-
known and books were few, these tra-
vellers carried the news of other lends
to home dwellers, and the unlettered
homes of northern Europe were
brought into touch with the learning
and refinement of ancient civilizations.
It satisfied that passion for adventure
to which pilgrimage, Elizabethan ex-
ploration and modern colonization
have all in turn ministered. .
The most redoubtable horseman of
the eighteenth century was John Wes-
ley. All through his active life, he
rode from sixty to seventy miles a
day; after he was eighty years of age
his record fax a year was from four
to five thousand miles, Often he was
in the sadd•1e by three a.m.,• and, when
weather permitted, it was his ecustom
to ride with loose rein, reading history
the while.—A. M. Pagan, in The Em-
pire Review.

Trees Are Hard Drinkers.
Trees are confirmed drinkers, No
solids for them.. They have no temper-
ate habits. They drink• continuously
or not at all. Thus they live and grow
as extremists and are'either destroyed
or die of old age unreformed. In fact
the older they are the harder they
drink and the greater their thirst., But
no tree was ever found the worse for
drinking. When they sleep in winter
they go to the other extreme and are
teetotalers, but with the first sunshine
and thaw of spring they resume their
bibulous habits.
When a tree once takes its piece at
Nature's great fountain "the earth's
sweet flowing breast," 'it. demands a
steady supply of food, and if it doesn't
get it it goes into a huff, throws off its
handsome headdress, withers, and dies
and turns up its heels to the sky.
- The liquid food of the tree is brewed
in the ground. Water is the important
ingredient. Billions of bacteria work
to make solvable many substances so
they may be dissolved by water and
taken into,, the circulatory system of
the tree. The tiny roots of the tree
drink this lifeis fluid which Is lifted
hundreds of feet as if by a miracle
defying the laws of gravity without
any moving machinery. This fluid .is
distributed to the branches, thence to
the leaves, the stomach of the tree,
where another miracle is performed
when the, liquid is digested and made
ready to be formed into wood..
The tree grows .year by year like a
person in height and girth. If the tree
falls in the forest billions of bacteria
will get hold of it and with the help of
air and sun and moisture its substance
will eventually be transformed into the
liquid food for other trees.
Codliver Oil.
Many of us have distinctly unpleas
ant recollections of the days a genera
tion ago, when the three chief con
stituents of the family medicine chest
were Castor Oil, Balearic Oil and Cod-
liver oil. These three were individual-
ly or coITeetively administered on in-
numerable occasions. One feature
common to all stands out in our mem-
ory, namely, their disagreeable taste.
The liret two of the time-honored
remedies have been gradually sup-
planted by preparations equally effica-
cious and infinitely more palatable.
Codliver Oil, however, is more firmly
established to -day than ever.
Codliver Oil in its pure form is still
considered to exert some rather de-
finite .influents in the prevention of
diseases of the respiratory tract;._ to
be an 'excellent tonic for younger child-
ren taken alone or combined with
other medical agents. It is, however,
as a preventa'tiv'e and 'cure for rickets
that it is now most widely used.
In the temperate zones, owing to the
lack of sufficient sunshine in the
autumn and winter months, it has been
found necessary to give all bottle -Sed
and most breast-fed infants Codliver
Cil, in order to avoid' the possibility
of their developing this extremely
common complaint.
Codliver 011 may be safely adminis-
tered in email tioees to all children
without fear of digestive disiturbanoe,
and is readily taken by infants. One-
half teaspoonful twice daily, under
three months of age; one teaspoonful,
twice daily frons` three to six months
of age; and from one 'teaspoonful to
one desserts'peonful twice a day up totwo years•.
EFFICIENCY IMPAIRED
Why MMany;Men and Women Are
Badly Handicapped.
When you are so run down in health
that it impairs the efficiency of your
work as well as your power to enjoy.
your leisure hours, or obtain rest, it is
time you looked to the cause. If you
do not, a salmis breakdown Is almost
sure to result sooner or later. In
nearly all cases this condition, which
doctors usually describe as general
debility, is due to poor blood—blood
that is deficient in red corpuscles.
When the blood Is thin and weak your
whole system suffers. You lose ap-
petite, have no energy, your nerves
trouble you and you feel restless.
What you need is help to build up
your blood and you should begin at
once to make your blood rich and red
by taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
You will s000tice the difference in
your health 'By a better appetite -and
Increased vigor. The reason is that
the new blood created by Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills stimulates all the organs of
the body to healthy activity, and so the
system gains nourishment and
strength. If you are weak or out of
sorts begin gaining new strength to-
day by taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
You can get these pills from your
druggist or by mail at 50 cents a box

Emperor Hirohito
Interesting Character
The personality and interests of the
new Japanese Emperor, Hirohito, were
described recently by General Charles
H. Sherrill, who met the ruler when
` he was heir to the throne in Paris in
- 1921, through Count Chinda, former
- Japanese Ambassador in Washington,
and old friend of General Sherrill. The
Prince had made an extensive tour of
Europe and despite: his youth had left
behind an impression of an extraordin-
ary grasp -of Western ideas of govern -
meet, economics and social institu-
tions, said General Sherrill.
"Prince Hirohito was not only an in-
teresting personality, he -said, "but
above all an "interested" personality.
When he learned form Count Chinda
that I ha.d spent several months in
Japan in 1919 he questioned me at
length on my impressions of his coun-
try, and displayed the keenest: interest
M every phase of Western politics and
government. It was at a large recep-
tion given by the French in his Honor
that I mst him, and in the midst of a
brilliant assemblage of Occidentals he
was a figure of outstanding interest.
Simple and dignified in his bearing, ho
had the fncc of a student, representing
all the traditions of his ancient coun-
try, yet showing an eager desire to
learn everything possible of the civili-
zation o fa different world. No finer
compliment could have ben paid to the
peoples of Europe than the interest
he .evinced in their life and institu-
tions:
"With his accession to the throne
Japan has her grst ruler who is inti-
mately acquainted with the Western
world: It is a significant fact that the
greatest world power i tithe Far East
is a man who thus appreciates, the
aims and aspirations of the Occident.
Reore'senting as he does the unbroken
traditions of 2,500 years, it is evident
that there 'ei come no, radical
changes of a political nature under his
rule. His family is a symbol Of eta,

to keep the feet warm and dry, and
confinement to the hawse on stormy

importance. The house should be

An antiseptic mouth wash, gargle and

Attention to diet is important. Dur-

cereals should be given, but after con-

plenty of water and milk both during

orange juice are excellent drinks. The
use of ,cantly and of sugar in any form
should be greatly restricted. In short,
everything must be done to build up
the health of the child and maintain
it at the highest possible level, at the
same time avoiding any coddling. Play
in the open air should be encouraged
whenever the weather permits.

Advice.
Be not always speaking of yourself.
Be not forward. Listen when spoken
to. Avoid old- sayings and vulgarisms.
Be choice in your compliments. Com,
wand your temper and your counten-
ance. Never acknowledge an enemy
or see an. affront if you can help it.
Doubt him who swears to the truth of
a thing. Dare be singular in a right
cause; be not ashamed to refuse.
Never appear to be in a hurry. Neglect
not an old acquaintance. Make no one
in company feel his inferiority. Avoid
punning and mimicry. Talk not hang
at a time. Tell no long or doubtful
stories. Hold no one by the button
when speaking. Forestall not a slow
speaker. Say not all you think. Give
not your advice unasked. Remember
few jokes will bear repeating. Learn
the character of the company before
you say much.
