Suppose, instead of going on strike, 11SOHL 'Pubilshing Company

clare publicly their intention of follow-

For instance, that girl who sat

joined me on my stroll to the dock

For she patently showed that he.dis-

black hair and blue eyes and, I guess-

table, a charming figure, she belonged
to youth, not to bloated age. And the
fact that her eyes were hard and'
mercenary made no difference. They
were so merely because advantages

I laughed at the idea This man
was nothing but the most mediocre

The reason for his success lay in the
fact that the men opposed to him, the
police, were also mediocrities. Imagine
a man of real intellect devoting him-

"Sitting -Up" in Bed
Here is a good way to prevent that
aching back one gets from sitting up,
or rather slouching, in bed, recom-
mended by a correspondent of "Your
Home Magazine." The next time you
are sick try it.
"Instead of propping a convalescent
person up in bed by piling pillows be-
hind him," this writer says, "try the
use of a stout strip of canvas hung
from the head of the bed and spread
out beneath the patient.
"The principle is that of the com-
mon lounging chair, canvas -seated.
It gives support to the weak back and
is held in place by' the patient's 'own
body. If the bead of the bed. be of
the iron -rail variety the strip ot
-cloth may be simply thrown, over this
rail and' brought down double, before
the sick person is lifted upon it.
"]t may be used by -a well person
who likes to sit up in bed for a bit of
late reading before dropping off to
sheep. In all cases it is much• more.
