Flinn, head of the Producers & Dis- tributors Corp., is a professional secret. But some of the sights and sensations Dr. Patrick experienced in the next few days are now part of the history of Marceline, Mo. For Dr. Patrick's abduction was by a whole trainload of cinema folk hur- rying to a coast convention. Mr. Flinn's recovery was rapid and happy. And to reward virtue in true cinema - style, Mr. DeMille and friends took Dr. Patrick for a thorough inspection of filmland, including even a Mack Sennett bathing beauty scene. And they gave him, together with his ticket back to Marceline, Mo., a fee whose proportions will not be ap- proached until Marceline, Mo., breaks out with simultaneous epidemics of mumps, colic, babies and pink eye. SAVE THE CHILDREN A deadly weapon is the tioinneraag in the Undo of Australian giavegSsi, Who made the 'first boonleraurRe one atonie say an Eskimo boy found taat a stick thrown at a bird came bask to him. But We do know that the boomerang has boon used for ages. There are several kinds of boomer- angs. The first is called "Tootygundy Wumkura," and it is used in warfare. It goes straight to tbo spot for winch aimed, and taco falls to the ground. The second is the "Trombash." ThiS is used in hunting wild birds and it ales farther than an arrow, The )14-1 tives of Abyssinia, use it in war time. The Trombash is "Marudwul- len Wunikum" by the Auetraliaus. The third, the "Come Bach" or "Bun- gil Wumkum," can be made to de- scribe a circle of 35 yards without ris- ing more than twelve feet in the air, alien thrown by an expert. The boomerang ordinarily used in shows or exhibitions is shaped some- thInglike the blade of a curved sword with one side coa vex, is 30 or 40 inches long, two to four inches wide, and half an inch thielt. It is grasped 1 nthe right hand (with convex side up) by a handle that is slightly rough- ened. The thrower takes a few quick steps forward and throws the boom- erang straight in front of him. Leav- ing the hand, the boomerang at once simplyworked wonders.

Mothers who keep a box of Baby's Own Tablets in the house may feel that the lives of their little ones are reasonably safe,during the hot weath- er. Stomach troubles, cholera in- fant= and diarrhoea carry off thou- sands of little ones every summer, in most cases because) the mother does not have a safe medicine at hand to give promptly. Baby's Own Tablets relieve these troubles, or if given oc- casionally to the well child they will prevent their coming on. The Tab- lets are guaranteed by a government analyst to be absolutely harmless even to the new-born babe. They are especially good in summer because they regulate the bowels and keep the stomach sweet and pure. They are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Wil- liams' Medicine Co., l3rockville, Ont. --a.-- • Poison Ivy Relieved by Simple Compound According to James F. Couch of the United States Department of Ag- riculture, victims of poison ivy will find quick relief in a 5 per cont. solu- tion of potassium permanganate, which can be made up by any drug- gist. The solution can be swabbed on the poisoned places with a bit of absorbent cotton or a soft cloth. The permanganate leaves a brown stain, which can be removed by washing with a 1 per cent. solution of oxalic tteid,•/), 1 per cent. solution of sodium bisulphite --or evert with plain soap and water. , If the tkin has been very much broken by scratching 'or otherwise and is raw, the oxalic acid .will cause a temporary stinging.; in this case soap and water are preferable for re- inovihg attains. If the skin is very tender the solution of potassium per- tnanganate may be diluted with water before using. --as Amateur Selentist—"Do you realize 4 r what Wonders there are in a drop of 'Water?"

In returning it curves toward the left, describes an eclipse, gradually loses momentum and falls within a few paces of the starting point. To the onlooker it seems to hang motion- less in the air at the point of turning, but this is because the eye is not quick enough to follow its movement. On its return the boomerang is either allowed to drop to the ground, or JOHILli,d120N caught in a net, since its force is still 49th so great that it might injure the hand if the thrower attempted to catch it.
