The "Polar Bears" frisking in the snow and in their bathing suits. To be a real downright "polar bear" requires a little more hardihood than most of us may have, but it's said to be great fun once you learn to like it Those in the picture may be seen atBrightonBeach, N. Y., most every winter where they skip about in their bathing suiCs and have not end of fun. It is said to be a very exhilirating pastime and medicine balls may be passed about vigorously if-you feel that you want to keep warm.

Profits cease to be profitable when we spend all and save none; the outlay surpassing his pay turns the wage earner into the vagabond. Fame is not found in the easy road and to win success is to work; to gain a name you must play the game from early morn uutil late at night. Read today's Want Ads of The Palladium.

Revelations of a Wife

The Crisis of the Next-Door Neighbor's Baby and What It Revealed (Concluded) Even as she spoke the little limbs relaxed, the terible blue look faded from the little face and the baby gasped his way back to life. "Quick, Katie, the blanket. Hold the warm aide toward me." Katie rushed forward, obeying Instructions like a soldier. As she reached Mrs. Underwood's side Lillian lifted the baby out of the water and laying It dripping, as it was, on the warm blanket, wrapped the woolen folds about It and, sitting down in the nearest chair, laid the baby fiat on her lap, looking anxiously into the tiny face. "If you have a hot water bag, Mrs. Graham, fill it and bring It here. Katie put the teakettle on the gas stove. I may have to add some hot water to this in the tub If another seizure comes." "Oh, will he have another?" Mrs. Lester cried out, and the sir! on her knees echoed her words with a long high-pitched wail. "If you utter another sound I shall lock you in a room by yourself until your mistress comes home." Mrs. Underwood spoke slowly, tensely to the maid, and the girl obeyed her mutely. "Who is the baby's physician?" she asked the girl. "Dr. Matthews, on Eighty-fifth street. He is out of town." "I am afraid another of these may come on." Lillian spoke half to herself.,then sharply to Dicky, who had hung up the receiver and was coming toward us. "Well?" "Dr. Pettit, in the next block, will be here directly." "Good! Do you know these people across the hall when you pee them?" "I would know the man. I never have seen his wife." "Then you wait in the hall between these two apartments until they come home. They ought to be here pretty soon; the theatres are out by this time. Try not to frighten the mother any more than you can help. Tell her first that the baby is all riht now, but was ill, and. is in here." She turned to her husband. "Harry, go down to the doorway and wait for that doctor, so that he won't waste any time getting up here. Daisy Lester was sobbing quietly, pitifully. Her husband stood by her side, his arm around her shoulders. I had a sudden glimpse of the power of a baby's danger to bind husband and wife together. The sight of another child's peril had brought Frank Lester to his wife's side to comfort her, where, during the evening, he had sneered at her fears. "Frank, take Daisy home." Mrs. Underwood spoke decidedly. "Oh. no. I ought not to go while that little thing is so sick." Poor little Mrs. Lester's words were brave, but her voice betrayed her longing to assure herself that her only baby was safe. "Nonsense!" As usual, Mrs. Underwood carried her point. "Here are four women, and two men, without you and Frank. You are not needed in thrleast, so get home to your baby. Find your own things, though. I want Mrs. Graham here." They hurried away like two frightened children. They had barely gone when Mr. Underwood ushered in the doctor. The physician was a tall, thin, youn? man, with a look of efficiency about him. He looked at the baby carefully, laid his hand upon the tiny forehead, then straightened himself. "Is here any way in which this child's parents can be found?" Mr. Underwood evidently had told him of the nature of the seizure and the absence of ths parents on the way up. Liliian Gale's face grew pa'e under her rouse. "There is danger, doctor?" she asked quietly. "There is always danger in thesn cases." he returned q-uietly. but his words were heard by a wild-eyed woman in evening dress ;ho rushed through the open door followed by a man as agitated as she. I said an un conscious prayer of thankfulness. The baby's mother had arrived. BUILDING ABANDONED TOKIO, Dec. 27.

, : ; ! Heart and Home Problems I ' ; . ; . ; 1

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl twenty years old. I used to go with a young man quite steady and then we quarreled. I haven't seen him for several months. He was one of the first drafted and we did not speak at the the time he went to camp. I liked this boy very much at first, but he treated me with such indifference that I got mad and told him he could not come to see me any more. He didn't seem to care a bit and he went with another girl all the time. I have just received a letter from him saying that he thinks of me as the best friend he has ever had and he re grets very much that we had trouble. He said that he was mailing me a little package and he asked me to accept, it and to forgive him for the way he has acted. He also said that he would like to start the new year knowing that we were friends and he asked me to write to him. What shall I do? I would like to write, but I have forgiven him before for his indifference and just as soon as he has it he doesn't seni to care any more. DOUBTFUL. Forgive the boy again and don't be too exacting in your friendship. Try to be happy just because you are friends and refuse to let yourself care when he seems indifferent and a little too deeply interested in another girl. Accept the gift unless it is jewelry. If it is jewelry I think it would be all right to thanK bim for it and keep it until he returns, but in your letter tell him that you cannot keep it permanently. Dear Mrs. Thompson: Suppose a young man was engaged to a girl in a different city, would it be honorable Dinner S tor i e 'Governor Livingstone Beeckman, of Rhode Island, said in Providence, apropos of the gigantic strides that, th temperance movement is taliing: "The whole country now seems to look at excess as the young wife did. " 'Jim. dear,' said a young wife, I do wish you'd stop drinking. Every time you go to one of those banquets ofi your you get up the nexl morning pale and silent, you eat nothing, you j just gulp down ten or fifteen glasses j of water. Do stop drinking, won't i you? I know it can't be good for you. I dear.' j "'AH great men have been drink-1 ing men,' said Jim. 'Look at Poe, at Charles Lamb, look at Burns, look at" " 'Well, Jim,' said the young wife, 'you just swear off till you become a great man, too, and I'll be satisfied.'" A village butcher, a big man, possessed a deep voice, and he was exercising it at th4.' local concerv by singing several unapplauded encores. 'Hasn't he an extensive repertory?" said his wife. "Well, I shouldn't like to say that," said the local dressmaker; "but he certainly is getting rather stout!" A well-known bishop in the south some time ago lost his third wife. A clergyman who had known the first wife returned from the north, and wished to see her grave. He called at the church and saw the sexton. "Can you tell me where the bishop's wife is buried?" he asked. "Well, sir," said the sextcn. "I don't know for sho', but he mostly buries 'em at-Milledgeville." "Your boy's going to business school, isn't he?" "Yes. He's learning the '.ouch system." "Typewriting?" "No, Dad writing." Bj Try Making Your Own a Cough Remedy Ton fan sr about S?. and hare a better remedy than the readymade kind. aaUy done. If you combined the curative properties of every known "ready-made" cough remedy, you would hardlv have in them all the curative power that lies in this simple '-home-made" cough syrup which takes only a few minutes to prepare. Get from any drusrsrist 2Vj ounces of Pinex (60 cents worth), pour it into a pint bottle and fill the bottle with plain granulated sugar svrup. The total cost is about 65 cents and gives vou a full p.int of really better couph svrup than you could buy ready-made for $2.50. Tastes pleasant and never spoils. This Pinex and sugar svrup preparation pets rifrht at the cause of a cough and gives almost immediate relief. It loosens the phlegm, stops the nasty throat tickle and heals the sore, irritated membranes that line the throat, chest and bronchial tubes, so pently and easily that it is really astonishing. A day's use will usually overcome the ordinary coujrh and for bronchitis, croup, whooping coueh and bronchial asthma, there is nothiner better.

To avoid disappointment, be sure to ask your drugsrist for "2 ounces of Pinex" with full directions, and don't acoepfc anythind else, A guarantee of absolute satisfaction or money prompt ly refunded, eoes with this prenaratioo.

for him to go with a girl In his own town? " : I have been Invited to attend a party wth a young man who lives next door. We are very good friends and have been ever since we were children. His club is going , to have a dance and he has Invited me to go because his own girl lives too far away to accept his invitation. I asked my mother and she said that under the circumstances she thought it would be all right for me to go. What doyou think? I am eighteen years old and he is twenty-one. BERTHA. When a young man is engaged he should not go with any other girl to any great extent. If he has several gill friends and his fiancee does not object to his calling on them and taking them places it is all right for him to do so. ' In jour case I think it was all right to accept the boy's invitation.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am eighteen years old and I have always been popular with boys, especially boys older than myself. Before the war I had a date every night in the week and now I don't have any. I get very lonesome and don't see how I can stand it. The younger boys who have not gone to war do not seem to like me. What would you advise me to do? BETTY. Forget boys for a while. There are enough things to do so that you ought to be able to fill your time full with things of interest which will be helpful at the same time. Go to Red Cross. They will find work for you which will ba fascinating. At the meetings you will 'meet interesting people who will keep you from being so lonesome. Dear Mrs. Thompson: Is it proper to accept money from an employer? I mean for a Christmas present. T. G. Yes, it is all right to accept money from an employer as a Christmt3 gift Miss Tallant to Take Up War Work in France Miss Edith Tallant, a former mem-i ber of the Richmond High school fac- j ulty, w ho has been teaching in a high ! school in Columbus, Ohio, has gone to j .ew York City where she will prepare for war work in France.
