An Ounce of Prevention.
It is a wise thing to save all worn
white materials, cut them Into pieces
10 Inches square and have a clean pile
of them in the linen closet, where any
member of the family who has a cold
may (procure them Instead of using
their regular handkerchiefs. They can
be burned when soiled, and In this
sanitary manner help the cold ^rom
spreading through the family.
A Novel Thought.
One way of Insuring a neat bath
room by having all the washcloths
hung up so they may be dried out
and stay sweet Is to buy some small
Ivory rings and sew one of these
firmly to one corner of each cloth.
They are easy to find and no one will
find It a trouble to hang theirs up
to dry.
U.v C0RK1NK LOWE.
New York, — (Special Correspond
unce.)—Thapks to the clemency of the
weather, the frock of polre| twill,
aerge or poplin has enjoyed a great
leal of publicity this autumn. Worn
without wrap of any sort except the
inevitable fur scarf, this type of frock
has been seen lately almost as con
itantly as during the Bpring months.
Indeed, more and more we have come
to regard the navy frock of one of
these fabrics as the most Indispens
able factor in mid-season dressing.
And. of course, the coldest of winter
weather cannot rob the garment of
dress of this character shows a touch
of red In panel linings, girdle, cuffs,
snd neck line. Black In the form of
braid or of ribbon Is another favored
concomitant. Here, however, the con
Irast is effected by making the puffed
lower section of the sleeve of French
blue velvet. The buttons carry out
this suggestion by a blue enamel on
steel foundation. A side ornament at
the corsage is of the same composi
tion.

- <
How To Get Relief When Head i
and Nose are Stuffed Up. i
Count fifty! Your cold in head or
catarrh disappears. Your clogged
nostrils will open, the air passes of
your head will clear and you can
breathe freely. So more snuffling,
hawking, mucous discharge, dryness
or headache; no struggling for breath
at night.
Get a small bottle of Ely’s Cream
Balm from your druggist and apply
a little of this fragrant antiseptic
cream in your nostrils. It penetrates
through every air passage of the
head, toothing and healing the swol
len or Inflamed mucous membrane,
giving you instnnt relief. Head colds
and ontarrh yield like magic. Don't
stay stuffed up and miserable. Relief
is sure.

The “Santa Sack”
Game
By GERTRUDE WALTON.
Before my children were old enough
to question about tho existence of
Satitn Claus, whenever we saw a pic
ture of the jolly old man we called
him Sunuy or Smiling Santa, because
he looked jolly. And he looked happy
because he was good and kind to
everyone. So when the children quar
reled or pouted we would try to have
them smile and look jolly like Santa.
Then wo played the game, “Santa
Sack.” which meant that if they al
lowed each other or ttieir playmates
to play with their toys, or gave them
of apples or goodies, they were play
ing Santa Claus. Because Santa was
unselfish and divided whatever he had
from his sack. Sometimes, when play
mates came, 1 would say, “You'll
want to play Santa Sack.” and
away they would skip to distribute
their toys like Santa. And they de
lighted to play and be called Santa
when they ran errands or smiled or
did something kind.
Santa was a make believe creature
as' characters in poefns which we read
to them, as “The ltaggedy Man;’’
“Children's Hour,” “Jack Sprat," "Hi
awatha.” Anyone who gave a gift
was a Santa and whenever Santa
Claus distributed gifts In a public
phice they were delighted that some
one was playing Santa as they played
"bear, doctor, teacher." Anyone who
Is unselfish, kind and cheerful Is to
them a Santa to someone else. Then
as they grew older the Santa Suck
was woven into a lesson that each of
us has something to give to another
all the time through the year in
smiles, kind words, etc. For the real
“Santa" gave so much from his sack
of treasures, in BethUhem long ag6!

The t.iil Who’s in Doubt.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am 13 and in
love with a man of 2 4. He Is also in
lint- with me. However, my parents
and Intimate friends believe we are
incompatible. They say he is inferior
to me in education, appearance, so
cial and financial standing. I have
been forbidden to see him. and though
two months have elapsed since the
last time l have seen him, 1 keep
thinking of him.
Would it be fair to let this young
fellow drift out of my life? On the
other hand, would It be fair to cause
my parents so much suffering, for if
I were to marry him it would li,i#e
to be without their consent. M. M.
Education, appearance, social and
financial standing might not make a
real barrier between you and the man
you love. But the doubt you uncon
sciously express of his character is s
serious thing. Don't marry a man as
long us you doubt Ids ability to
make something of lus life, if lie
loves you in a strong, sturdy, noble
way. lie will make good and prove to
your peojde that in spite of his handi
caps he Is every inch a man. A
year or two would do much to prove
his real merit and to Solve your prob
lem. But do not marry In haste.

THE OLD BRIDGE
On the old, old bridge with its crumbling stones,
All covered with lichens, red and gray.
Two lovers were talking In sweet, low tones,
And wo were they!
As lie loaned to breathe In her inclining ear
The love that he vowed would never die.
He called her his darling, his dove most dear.
And he was 1!
She covered her face from the pale moonlight
With her trembling hands, but her eyes looked through,
And listened and listened with long delight.
And she was you!
On the old, old bridgo where the, lichens rust
Two lovers are learning the same old lore.
He tells his love, and she looks her trust,
' But wc—no more!
