and I was troubled continually with
constipation. Five bottles of Sargon
have built me up as well: and strong
as I was 101 years ago. I have a fine
appetite and my stomach is in as good
shdpe as it ever was in my life. At
72 I'm hale and hearty!

NEW LIFE FOR AN OLD COAL
SCUTTLE
The bottom of a coal scuttle gen-
erally
enerally rusts through while the sides
are quite sound, In such a case, drive
two-inch wire nails through the sides
of the scuttle from the outside, about
one-•quartelr inch from the bottom,
leaving spaces of about six inches be-
tween the nails. Takeone small
shoveful of cement and two of sand
or fine gravel, mix with water (pre-
ferably warm) to a thick paste, and
pour into the scuttle until the nails
are just covered. Allow forty-eight
hours for this concrete, to harden be-
-fore using. If there are any large
"toles in the scuttle, place a sheet of
paper or cardboard on the bottom
before pouring in the concrete.
WHY GOOD-BYE?
"Good-bye" is a word which Ira one
likes to say. There is something too
solemn, too final, about it. Nowadays
people are more and more growing
to say "So long! I'll telephone : oon."
'They conserve their friendship by
long distance telephone.
A DUCHESS AND HER BABY
The 'bond of motherhood took many
women, with their babies, to Bucking-
ham Palace, on the afternoon of Oc-
'tolber 30th, to see Princess Margaret
Rose, the ten -weeks -old daughter of
the Duke and Duchess of York, ar-
rive for her christening.
The 'smiling Duchess, , with her
usual sympathetic touch that makes
all the world kin, noticed the mothers
and leaning forward in the motor cam
gave a whispered instruction to Nurse
Reevors, •the substantial figure of a
nua'se sitting opposite her in whose
lap lay a fluffy white bundle. Where-
upon the sleeping princess was raised
to the window so that the impromptu
.guard of honor could see her.
Women cheered wildly, waved hand-
kerchiefs and pressed forward on tip-
toe in their hundreds in an effort to
,catch a fleeting glimpse of the tiny
face encased in a white fur -brimmed
bonnet. They were rewarded by the
sight of the happy face of Princess
Elizabeth, obviously very proud of her
baby sister, who left her seat beside
her father and mother to smile and
wave to the crowd from the window.
The duke and duchess bowed con-
tinually in graceful recognition of the
reusing welcome to their second dau-
ghter and then the motor car slowed
down as it approached the sentry -
guarded ,grates of the great palace
which has recently had its face wash-
ed so clean as to be almost unreeog-
niza'ble.
Within its snowy portals the chris-
tening party were joined by the King
and Queen and when they walked to
the tiny private chapel, filled with
beautiful white flowers for the happy
occasion, the gentlemen and the boy
•choiristers from the Royal Chapel, in
their quaint uniforms of scarlet and
gold, like Beefeaters, were singing
the hymn that had been chosen by the
duchess herself.
The lovely, old, ivory -colored chris-
tening robe of priceless lace fell al-
most to the ground as the little prin-
cess slumbered in the arms of her
nurse until the actual ceremony, when
the Princess Victoria, the King's un-
married sister, took her and handed
her to the Archbishop of 'Canterbury.
It was the same robe in which the
babe's geeat-great-grandmother,Queen
Victoria, had been baptized in the
same quiet way at Kensington Palace
over 100 years ago, and has been worn
by many noted 'babies since, including
King Edward, the Empress Freder-
ick, King George and the Prince of
Wales.
'Little Princess Elizabeth, standing
beside her father and mother, was the
most interested participant in the
intimate, brief ceremony, end was told
that she, too, had worn the same beau-
tiful garment of shimmering statin
and lace when she was christened in
the same chapel four years ago.
The massive pure gold font, shaped
like` a graceful lveterlialy' on a slender
eyhattr artem, which was brought es-
pecidily from 'Windsor Castle for the
oaltiniony, was sur ohrnded by white
rbses--ity+pical for a Princess of York

'The royal sponsors were the Prince

George), Prinedse Victoria, Pxtinlcess
Ingrid of Sweden (represented by
Lady Patricia. Ramsay) and the sister
and brother of the Duchess of York,
Lady Rose Leveson -Gower and the
Han. David Bowes -Lyon,
'Peacefully the perfect princess
slumbered through it all and it iia re-
corded with pride that she was "a
quiet, well-behaved child."
She w'as not even interested in the
cutting of her cakes, two gorgeous
affairs of 70 pounds each, surmounted
by a ,sever cradle containing a dainty
doll, which had been sentspecially
from iSeotland. But her sster, Eliz-
abeth, doubtless atoned by the inten-
sity of her appreciation of the event.
One cake was cut 'at Buckingham
Palace immediately after the cere-
mony, before the King and Queen left
for a short drive around Hyde park.
Theother was cut at a christening
party given later at 145 Piccadilly,
The Court photographer, Mr. Rich-
ard Speaight, who took photographs
of the Duchess of York when she was
a (Shad, took the first picture of the
baby princess in the drawing -room of
the duke's house.
It was a three-quarters of an hour
sitting—enough to exhaust the pa-
tience of an angel . child—'and yet
when asked by a London reporter how
the princess faced the camera Mr.
Speaight said:
"I have never photographed a bet-
ter baby. She was wonderfully good
and is very healthy and happy.
"The drawing room had to be turn-
ed into a studio, which means the in-
tioduction of powerful lights. The
little princess' eyes must be very
strong, for I have never taken so
many pictures of a baby with the
eyes always open.
"Not once did she whimper or close
her eyes. She has a perfect disposi-
tion.
"I was struck, too, by the quick way
she seemed to take notice for so
young a child. The princess was not
at all inanimate like so many other
babies, and I think I may ray that
the pictures are among the very best
of a young baby I have ever seen."
The apparent strength of the eyes
noticed by the photographer is, it is
claimed, a characteristic of the Bowes
Lyon family and seems to show that
in this, as well as in a certain sim-
ilarity of feature, the new, baby is
more like her mother than anyone
else.
However that may be, women gen-
erally are agreed that the princess
is a child of fine physique and that
the Duchess of York has the goodwill
and Congratulations of every mother
in the Empire.
