They were made of dour and seasoned with poppies and honey, Ile must have been an opium fiend, as the celestial drug is made from pop- pies.

What has become, of the women who used to settle their quarrels by cutting each other's clothes lines on wash day.? Where is the boy who stretched a line after dark across the path of the man whom he hated because the man told his father he caught him playing hookey?• When He Concentrated. "Did the speaker impress you as be- ing in deadly earnest?" "Only once or twice.". "Arid what were those occasions?" "When he lost his place and began to paw his notes wildly in an effort to find it again." Slight Mistakes For five minutes they has not spoken. - "Mary," he said at last, "1 can hear the beating of your Leah." "Psbawl That is s, man on the floor above beating a rug." Shut Out From the Sources. "No wonder Jones is such an igno- ramus." "What is the reason?" "He shaves himself, has his wife cat his hair and doesn't read the sporting page." Keeping Employed. - "He seems to be very busy." "He always is." "What does he do?" "Tries to make people believe that be is of some importance." Modern. "Is this house for sale?" "Yes." "Plumbing in good order?" "I should say so." Plumber looks aft r: er it every week." What Is _ Uric Acid? THE CAUSE OF BACKACHE, RHEUMATISM, GRAVEL AND SUDDEN DEATH. Ever eince,the `discovery of uric acid in the blood by Scheele, in 1775, and the -bad effect it had upon the body, scientists and physicians have striven to rid the tissues and the blood of this poison. Because of its over- abundance in the systeen it causes backache, pains here and there, rheu- matism, gout, gravel, neuralgia and sciatica. It was . Dr: Pierce who dis- covered a new agent, called "Anuric," which will throw out and completely eradicate this uric acid from the sys- tem. "Anuric" has proved -lo ' be 37 times more potent than Lithia, and consequently you need no longer fear muscular or articular rheumatism or gout, or many other diseases which are dependent on an accumulation of uric acid within the body. Send to . Dr. Pierce of the Invalids' Hotel and Sur- gical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., for a - pamphlet on ' Anuric," or send 10 cents for a trial package of iyAnuric'Tablets." If you feel that tired, worn-out feeling; backache, neuralgia, or if your sleep is . disturbed by too frequent ,urination, go to your best drug store and ask for Dr. I_srce's Anuric Tablets. They are put up" in 50 -cent packages. Doctor Pierce's reputation is back of, this medicine' and you know that his "Golden Medical Discovery": for the blood and his "Favt:•ite `Prescription" for the ills of women have had a splen- did reputation for the past fifty years. Doctor Pierce's Pellets are unequaled„ as a Liver Pill. One tiny Sugar-coated Pellet: a Dose. Cure Sick Headache, Bilious Headache, Dizziness, Constipa- tion, Indigestion, Bilious Attacks, and all derangements of the Liver, Stomach and Bowels.

It includes the various measures employed during the course, of a communic- able disease or after the patient has recovered or died. Examples . of disinfection used in the course of an infectious or com- municable disease are those employed in disinfecting sputum from open:, tuberculous cases, stools of typhoid, or cholera patients, or the secretior1i;' from the mouth, and nose of a patient i11 of diphtheria. It is especially im- portant that the :family be made familiar with the means of 'carrying on this form' of disinfection. The tuberculous 'sputum and secretions from mouth and nose of diphtheria cases should be burned, the stools are held in vessels to which milk or lime has been added, and then; buried a foot or two, under ground, away from any source of water supply. Most important it is g ' that the hands of nurses and attendants should be washed after each con- tact with the patient. Other members of the family should avoid kissing the sick person and the patient's food utensils should be boiled after each' use. On the recovery or death of the patient the room occupied by him should be thoroughly renovated and disinfected. Many people think that • such disinfection means fumigation by the gases of sulphur or formaldehyde. Of much greater importance are removal of curtains and carpets, their exposure fora few days to outside air and sunlight, the scrubbing of floors and woodwork with hot water and soap, and the wiping of walls and ceiling with cloths wet in 1 in 20 carbolic acid solution, or 1 in 1000 bichloride of mercury solution., Fumigation would be .of value in destroying infectio11 in rooms if it were thoroughly carried out. In many cases it is so badly done that it is a useless expense, and is not advised by the Health Depart- ment unless carried out under the direct supervision of the M. O. H. In _most .cases it is not required.``. Many . municipalities such as New York, Brooklyn, and Toronto have abandoned .fumigation as a- routine measure. Other means such as those outlined are quite as effective and are com naratively inexpensive. The Provincial Board issues ',a pamphlet giving fulldirections regard- ing disinfection.. It is sent free to anyone who asks for it. PNEUMONIA AND TEE BABY. Many mothers are afraid to let their babies. out of the house after they first spell. of cold weather. We know of "children in our schools who are 1 "sewed up" in their clothes when the first snow fall's and remain sewed'• until the spring comes; but we know, too, that a considerable number of Ontario mothers peep: their babies indoors all winter. - Fresh air and sun, light are two important needs of the baby—and he needs them in the cold) rr as well as in the warm weather. r Thebaby must have some fresh air every day. He may sleep outdoors• in the dry days of winter -and summer, if dressed warmly and sheltered from the wind: If necessary a hot water bottle or a heated brick r may be placed in the carriage If the weather is bad or severely cold, dre the baby as for going outand place him in his carriage or crib in his 1^ Open the window, preferably one with the sun shining inof, and on the of the house sheltered from the wind, and let the baby have his afternoon4V ''' sleep in the fresh air. • The window i' the baby's room should be left o npen at night—if only a little, even on the coldest nights. A baby who has plenty of fresh air is not ;:. liable to catch a cold when the slightest draft blows on him. +. Do you know that during last year (1915) nine hundred' arid twentY-.1; rl,: one (921) .Ontario babies, one year and under, 'f oniaand!} ` , died iom'pleum l broncho-pneumonia? Pneumonia in the baby usually begins with a cold your baby catching cold: Try to prevent Do not let the baby near people- who have 'colds, because colds are spread by 'contact with those suffering from them. Never allow the baby to be kissed on the. mouth. Keep the baby out of drafts.' Do not let the baby play on the floor in winter. '':Remember the floor is the coldestthe l and usual :' ( Y dirtiest) orf of. the xoom. •The_baby •will be safer in his crib or in a large box "or clothes - basket because the sides will protect him from drafts. If the baby does'catch cold, ,the best treatment is to n,ive him a dose of castor oil, Put vaseline or, lanolino°ln;the nostrils, ansi rub it on the outside of the nose freely.
