Dr. Amos Craig is also in love with her and is hurt at the news. Jim is the type of man who is alcays talk- ing about what he will do when he makes his “million.” but although he seems 1o have plenty of money, he is in no hurry to get married. At his request. Betty gives up all_night cases; which of course curtails her in- come. In spite of that fact Jimmy expects her to be smartly dressed on every occasion. At a dance, Dr. Craig shows his love for her openly and Kisses her. in the tari, on th® way home. Naturally Betty is furious, particularly as his love for her seems more unselfish than Jimmy's and she doesn't want it. Jimmy keeps on pos poning the time for their marriage, but at last he scts a tentative date and Betty begins to buy her trousscan Jim does not realize that the late hours Beity is keeping. together with her ca. and constant emotional strain, are wearing her out. One night he takes her out tazi-driving and in- stead of telling Ier that their mar- riage wiil take place in June, as she has expected, he tells her he is going abroad. She faints CHAPTER XL.

The influences * that prevail after the day’s work is done, are cheerful, and will promote congeniality and awaken emotions. Children born tomerrow ing infancy, be practically to the ailments that are generally typical of babyhood. In their early childhood, along about the time when they are 5 or G years old, they will be subjected to a serious illness. Their constitutions will enable them to re- cover quickly, and they promise there- after, to develop along normal lines. In disposition, they will be rather I and indifferent to what is known < material fortune. They will, however, possess good fundamentals, and Lave high ideals. Their temperaments will | be artistic, rather than practical, nd their greatest success will be in mat- ters that are not commercial. If tomorrow is your birthday, you are self-contained, unimaginative, and rarely, if ever, enthusiastic. You are fond of nature and good books, but only enjoy the society of a few friends, and, practically, have the af fection' of only one or two. You are loyal to your home and family, and strive, in your own way, to imake things bright and attractive. Tt is however, with your disposition, a very difficult task, as there is a lack of that something in your ‘“make-up’ which would exude sympathy and be- get congeniality. Well known persons born on that date are: Denman Thompson, actor; | Herbert W. Ladd. merchant and gov- | ernor; Samuel Bowle: Frank V.

Here are three typical, representa- tive queries—I was about to dub them foolish questions, but they are not at all foolish when one considers what es as a “"good general education™ today. These questions well {llustrate the deficiency of a “good general ed- ucation.” Would you kindly send me any material that you have on the sub- ject of “Health”? We are study- ing human blology in high school and are particularly interested in this subject. (K. A.) One of the hest in this y operated on my daughter for appendicitls when she ws ctual- 1y coming down with typhoid fever. .. 1T have come to the con- clusion the reason there are so many Wise & Helmers is because there are so many guacks, and people have lost confidence in the doctors and we worry along, using home remedies to the best of our ability, (Mrs. N. R. H.) What harm, if any, will it do a woman 40 yvears of age to take about three Feminex tablets a day for a few days at a time? She thinks they renew her ‘“pep” and prevent trouble incident to her age. (J. B) The high school girl. apparently, has been led by her education thus far to imagine that the subject of “Health” may be covered in a few paragraphs or a chapter in the formal course iA blology. On the contrary, all this girl can hope to learn about biology in her school course {8 but a minor element in the study of health or hygiene. Granting that the doctor mentioned by Mrs. N, R. H. made the mistake in diagnosis for which she condemns the profession, he may be a very good doctor nevertheless. There is nothing quite inflallible n this world. If a good doctor with his special training is liable to commit such an error— and I believe no doctor can be deemed incapable of making just such a mis- take—how much greater is the chance of error when the layman himself, without any knowledge or training at all, undertakes to do his own “doctor- ing.” No, the quacks are not re- eity A little loose bundle of memories, A few of the simplest of fucts — This is the thing that I call my mind That steers me through all of my acts! LG (e half. Ask your grocer. sponsible for all the wisenneimers, the people who think they know enough about health and disease to tell the doctor a thing or two. Makers and | purvevors of victuals and soap, raiment and shelter, in this age of “sanitary” nonsense and health hokum, do their good share in train- ing novices for places in the house of Wise & Heimer. Along with the inquiry about the TFeminex tablets came a part of the carton or box which apparently con- tained the tablets. According to the |legend on this box each tablet con- tains two and one-half grains of i phenacetine. Phenacetine is one of the coaltar derivatives so commonly incorporated in nostrums sold as remedies for headache, neuralgia, “colds,” grip, and all sorts of painful or exhausted states. Like all pain killers or sense deadeners of its class phenacetine is depressing to the heart, | breaks down red blood corpuscles, im- | pairs the oxygen carrying function of | the blood and in some cases brings about a deplorable undermining of the nervous system. For any one to use such a drug is a dangerous thing in any circumstances. To use it in the way this woman seems to use it is deliberate cultivation of a drug habit which may lead to disaster. All three queries should be an- swered by the general knowledge of hygiene or health which every intel- ligent person should acquire in an ordinary schooling. I Clues to Character BY J. 0. ABERNETHY. The Thinker's Ear. In reading character do mnot over- look the ear. The large, irregularly formed ear never is found on persons of a high degree of refinement. Smail ears do not distinguish them- | selves in giving to charity, no mat- ter how much money they have. They lack that personal sympathy for human beings that inspires some men to help those less fortunate than themselv: on the so-called motive temperament. | the type that is energetic physicaliy and Toves outdoors. ~The thinking | qualities of the individual are indexed | by the pear-shaped ear, which is full at the top and tapers gracefully to- ward the lower part, its lines being | curved and graceful. Persons of the artistic temperament have such ears. They more often are thinkers—that is, they depend upon the brain for thelr livelihood.
