"And where to this time. Ellen?” James sighed this evening. with interest which was obviously only secondary to his work of the mo- ment. He had just returned from the sowing of the last grain-field with the team then drinking thirst- '.ly at the water-tubs in the barn- yard. The small engine was busy pumping a pulsing stream, one mew was cool and refreshing. One was aware as well that if one phase of the day's work was ended, a new one. equally insistent riad commenced. Already Jock was carrying great pails of coni- mercial fced from one of the pig- gcrics - proper to some sty or another in space which housed the over-flow. "Nowadays." James will sometimes declare, "hog farm- ing is not much of a chore - not when you buy their feed all ready to put in the trough. and have the drinking water pumped to the spot!"
To refute this in part. experi- rnccd cars today caught the sound ')f a sawing and hammering. which iuld a tale of industry - that iomewhere about, a complete weaning of small fry was about 0 take place in the removal of a )a:'llll0fl of a pen.

"Humphi" James said expressively ...James is a farmer and hus- band, who gives his wife willingly to any of the uplifts of Church community or state, but at the same time in a disinterested man- ner. If it should happen that from any direction honors were to be thrust upon us to "elevate" us be- yond : woman's dreams, and we were to mention it to James he would be one to say in an absent- minded way: "Is that so.

James would be right at an elbow to beam his ap- proval and encouragement. "Oh. yes." he would say proudly to Mr. C. from the house on the hill when they chatted over "shop" that eve- ning.

MAKING LIVER. EXTRACT MORE EFFECTIVE IN l'ER.NlC- IOIJS ANEMJA
when Drs. Murphy and Minot, Boston. discovered that patients with the formerly fatal disease pernicious anemia could be kept alive by 5 or 6 ounces of calls liver daily, it was one of the most important events in the history of medicine. It ranks with Banting's discovery that diabetics do not need. to die if supplied with insulin daily or even weekly.
At first. because Drs. Minot and Murphy used cnlf's liver in their experimental work. Dl'l)'5l('lans usedl calf's liver in treatment of per-i nicious anemia. but later any kind of liver-cow. lamb, pig-Iwas found to be effective.
Now everybody does not like live: and it became necessary to pre- pare liver in various ways to helpl them to eat it. At one time the Presbyterian Hospital, New York
City. had devclcpcd 53 ways of prrparing it. 4 As with other discoveries, re-;
search workers developed an ex.. tract of liver which was equally effective as liver itself. and was less trouble to patient and physlc-' ian. Since those early days of liver; extract 8. great amount of resc-iirchl work has been done in laiboratcriesl of meat processing and drug manu- facturing companies with the re-: suit that liver extract today is much more effective than at. any previous time. g Notwithstanding the excellent results of liver extract in mntrol. ing pernicious anemia. Dis. E, Mar- tin and F. Voucher in Praxis, Bern. Switzerland report a method of partly digesting this liver extract so that it is more completely and rapidly absorbed by the blood. In pernicious anemia there is lack or loss of an important fnrment in the stomach digestive juice. but. by partly digesting the protein part of the liver extract by use of tihe ferment papain, this lack or loss is corrected.
There is a solid and liquid pro- teolyzcd liver extract to be taken by mouth as well as a. highly con- centrated proteolyzed extract for injection.
The chieif value of this partly digested (iproteolyrcdl liver extract is that pernicious anemia. can be effectively treated with it by four to eight injections per month. Drs. Martin and Vaiucher were able to confirm the observations of British observers that this proteolyzed ex- tract is 2 to 3 times as powerful as ordinary whole liver extracts.

SUNBATHI
on glancing at the heading of this column you may wonder what aunbaths have to do with nutrit- ion. sunlight is n combination of rays of light of various colors and effects. If this light is broken up by means of s prism it is found that the rays of light visible to the eye form a spectrum-red. orange, yellow, green, indigo. blue. violet. Beyond the violet are rays called "ultra violet”. When the direct rays of the sun strike the skin. the "ultra violet" rays convert a fat.-like substance beneath the skin into Vitamin D. Therefore sun-

Vitamin D, which sunlight pro- duces in the body, is most. im- portant for babies. It is this vita- min which enables the body to make use of the calcium and phosphorous in the baby's food to build these elements into strong healthy bones and teeth.
Sunbaths may be started when the baby is three or four weeks old. You may start sunbaths in spring or in summer.
1. On the first sunny day. put the baby in direct sunlight, and let it shine on his cheeks arid hands for two or three minutes Turn him so that the sun will not. shine in his eyes, Before putting him in the sun, rub on it little oil
2. The next day expose his cheeks five or six minutes. Tnn him slowly. A baby's skin is tender. so do not allow him to becomei pink and therefore burned. l
3. when the cheeks and hands are slightly tanned expose the
arms and legs. Again be careful about burned pink skin. Rub on mineral oil .11 burned. ,
4. when legs and arms arel showing a tan, and the weather is warm enough. remove shirt nndl diaper and expose him to sunshine two or three minutes. The next oay expose him five minutes. Con- tinue to increase the tan gradually until the baby is tanned all over his body.
5. On hot days when the tem- perature is 85 tunbaths should be given before 11 A.M. end, after 3 PM. Keep the baby's head cover-, ed if he is out: during the hot part of the day,
Sunbaths should not be klven the baby directly after feeding or bathing him. The baby must be watched constantly throughout the, entire time. These sunbsth ill-l rections are for the well baby. lit the baby is even slightly sick :1 Doctor's advice is necessary in the care the baby needs to see well. A well tanned baby is assured of good teeth and bones and pro- tection against rickets. once so prevalent among children in North- ern Climates.
Adults are not exempt from sun- bathing.

Q. When writing a social letter on the typewriter, should one type onc'e name?

fiioiioiiiv DIX SAYS -
Prospective Stepfather
Should Man Wed Widow Whose . Children He Dislikes
DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am in love with a widow who has two girls, one 12 and the other 15. They are under very poor control and do lust as they please. I just simply can't stand the way they act. though I don't say anything. But if I married their mother I would have to change from that and I am afraid that it would cause her and me to get along badly. I feel I can't give the mother up, but I can't endure the kids. Please give me your advice.
M. R. H. A.
n
ANSWER: You certainly have a prophetic soul when it warns you that you will have trouble with the mother the minute you begin to try to control her un- disciplined children.
' Don't deceive yourself into thinking that if you marry this woman with her half-grown girls. she will side with you and hold up your hands when you try to discipline them. She w 't. She Wm go over to the enemy's camp every time and align herself 'ith the children. In practically every family it is mother and the girls against father, even when it is their own father, and what happens to a step- iather when he faces that consolidated opposition is too horrible to thm1l(3c(i)iig a stepfather is the toughest job that any man ever tackles. It is really harder for a man to be a good stepfather than it is for a ivo- man to be a good stepmother, because most women have some maternal instinct that makes them fond of children and gives them some intuitive knowledge of them, but few men are endowed b Nature with much paternal instinct. That is something that has to be developed in them by their own children. Children are an acquired taste with men. so
tak.
to Hi)-lrnce no man should marry a woman with children unless he fools within himself the call to be a real father to them, unless he is determined within himself to use tact and diplomacy and kindness in dealing with the children whose lives he has taken into his hands.
So, Mr. Man, think a long time before you marry this woman whose children you already dislike. You'll hate them worse when they devil the life out of you and you and your wife will quarrel continually over them. But remember. if you do assume the role of stepfather to them, that you will make or mar their lives.
DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am a business woman of 39. A man who is seven years younger than I am and who was the husband of my sis- ter, who died several years ago. wants to marry me- We were nlwaYS very good friends and our grief over her loss has drawn us very close together. What do you think we should do under the circumstances? Marry, or give each other up? Is the fact that this man was my sisters husband a bar to our union? And what about the difference in age?
A CONSTANT READER
ANSWER: There is no reason in the world why you shouldn't marry and be happy. In fact. I should say that your marriage stands a better chance for happiness than most because you and the man
