"There'a something wrong with you if you aren't hungry," Mr. Bear declared wisely. "Have you been eating something you shouldn't, that has civen vou the stomach-ache?" Silkie Bear nodded her head, meaning that she had eaten some thing forbidden. But Cuffy shook his head, meaning that he hadn't any i i siomacn-acne. "Blest me!" cried Mr. Bear. "Which one shall I believe?" She bent over and looked at her children sharply. And then she reached for something in a dark cranny of the den. "A little medicine.'' Mrs. Bear an nounced grimly, "won't hurt either of you. Here's a piece of bitter herb that Aunt Polly Woodchuck gave me last summer. She said it was fine for almost anything. Open your mouth now, children, and I ll,give a bit to each of you." Neither Cuffffy nor Silkie obeyed. "Open!" Mrs. Bear ordered in a sharper tone. "It won't taste halt as bad as you think." Still they kept their mouths shut tight, though goodness knows they tried hard enough to obey their mother. Usually Mrs. Bear was patient. But this was a very busy day for her. It's no wonder that she snap ped, ' Corte! I've no time to waste. If you don'e take this bitter herb I'll have to give you something that you'll like less." Even that hint failed. Mrs. Bear had already raised a threatening ..paw when a frightful thought flashed through her head. "Can't you open your mouths? she cried. And this time they both shook their heads miserably. "Mercy sakes!" Mrs. Bear wailed. "Whatever shall I do If thejr cant open their mouths they can't eat. And if they can't eat " At this point Cuffy Bear interrupted his mother. It . as something she had often warned him against in terrupting. But Mrs. Bear didn t mind this time. v Her words had, frightened Cutty and he tried to roar. But instead of filling the den with a mighty bel low he only made an odd, gurgling sound, "Oh! He's choking!" Mrs. Bear shrieked. And she hurried to the doorway, where she called in a loud voice, "Ephraim! Ephraim!" In a few minutes Mr. Bear him self came a-running. "Cuffy and Silkie they can't open their mouths," Mrs. Bear sobbed. "Run down to the pasture and ask Aunt Polly Woodchuck what to do!" But Mr. Bear said no, that the famous herb doctor. Aunt Polly Woodchuck, hadn't waked up from her winter's sleep. "She won't stir for anybody," he declared. "Be sides," he added, "what good would herbs do ii the children can't swal low 'em?" , Tkr ! th hia silt rose for - - the dressing table, which contains in NV Un- . ri rfinirct rose lis ucai i a .

Some IS year ago opponent of paiteurned milk made many wild statementi a to the increase in rickets which could be expected should this safeguard igaintt milk borne disease be adopted. The safeguard came into rather general adoption, and the prophet of disaster came into disrepute. Hut one good that came from the false statements was an interest in rickets out of which hat come a ereat deal of information about rickets that is both scientific and practical. . It has been proven that diet i not an important (actor in rickets. Many breast fed babies develop it, is do many names Jed on certthed milk, pasteurised milk, boiled milk, milk powder, condensed milk, and every other kind of food. This, of course, doet not wholly eliminate food as a factor, since breast milk, as well as other varie ties and forms of milk, may be poor, and some babies cannot thrive on even the best milk. It does prove that food is not the most important factor. It seems that light is. The babies develop rickets because they need more sunlight. It is rife in winter because there it not much sunlight. It is rife in cities because there is not much sunlight there. Colored babies iu cities almost al ways have it because they need more sunlight than white babies do, and, as a rule, they get less. Therefore, to cure and to prevent it turn on the light. One-half hour of sunlight, shining directly on the skin, and not through glass, four or five times a week, will cure it. Also, it will prevertt. What can be done on the sunless days and days that are too cofd for exposure to sunlight in the open? For this purpose the best substi tute is the light from the white flame of the carbon arc light. This is given for one hour a day. The light is placed three feet from the bared skin. This light has these advantages over sunlight: It does not cause sunburn, blistering, or even pigment ation. Hess and Unger have cured ma,ny cases of rickets in this way. The same physicians have cured the dis ease by sunlight and by mercury vapor quartz lamps. Strauss reports curine cases of surgical tuberculosis scrofula, lymph gland infection, bone and abdomi nal tuberculosis with the carbon arc white flame light.' Another factor in rickets is some deficiency of phosphorus and lime, though just the nature of this de ficiency is far from being settled. Nevertheless, the internal use of cod liver oil. based on this theory, is accepted as both a cure and a means of prevention. ' Jtiess and Unger predict that with in a tew years neaitn departments will be distributing cod liver oil and giving carbon arc light treatments, and in this way they will be eradi cating rickets. Let us hope that when the circuit has been made, and we come back to another bare leg, bare back era, we may see no bow legs and pigeon breasts. Hay Fever Vaccination. S. W. writes: 'T get hay fever every August. . "Some time ago I saw in your column something in regard to its prevention. "I tiave lost the paper, but I be live that 'some information on this subject at this time of the year would be greatly appreciated by ma.ny oT your readers. RliPLY. Now is the time to have a physi cian discover which- pollen causes your trouble. He will use pollen ex tracts obtainable from the pharma ceutical houses. Next, vaccination against the- offending pollen is done according to methods described in detail in medical journals. For summer hay fever calcium chloride is used. Dissolve four ounces of calcium chloride crystals in one pint of water. Take one teaspoonful, well diluted, three times a day for sev eral months. Other lime salts, less hard on the Price Change Announcement K Beginning today, July 11, our retail price for milk will be 11 cents per quart.

They are all in perfect health now," REPLY.
