POSTPONE CITY DAY ON ACCOUNT OF WEATHER

now maim;i: tkansmitti: the MESSAGE AND WHAT SHE SENSim. The names in the local telephone register blurred before me. for relieved, happy tears were filling my eyes as I realized that the message from Remberton hospital was not

from my husband, but from Mr.!

Frederick Graham, sent to me by mistake. "What did you say that number was?" The voice of the hospital interne at the other end of the wire had a worried inflection. "Marvin, 7 19-J." I repeated. "I suppose there's nothing else for me to do but to get them," the interne said, and the voice had lost Us impersonal note altogether. There was a distinct appeal in It, which I hastened to answer, not to save him Inconvenience but for the sake of the trubled woman of the same name as mine, who must be waiting in an agony of suspense for this message. "Would it facilitate matters for me to deliver that message by telephone?" I asked. "I should be very glad to do so.' 'Oh. If you would be so kind!" The Interne's voice was just one relieved note. "It takes so long to get these suburban connections." "Please correct me If I'm wrong in repeating it." Then I recited smoothly for. indeed, every , word of the original message was graven on my brain cells: You May TNI Her " "Mr. Frederick Graham wishes me to tell you he has had a very good supper, has gotten hold of some books he wanted, is feeling fine, sends his love to you both, and says you're not to come to see him under any condition before Monday.' "Absolutely correct." approved the interne. "Rut there's no authoritative word here as to his condition," I argued, "only his own opinion. What shall I tell Mrs. Graham about him from you?" There was a distinct pause. Then the voice said Fmoothly: "You may tell her he is in as good condition as we can possibly expect." My heart sank. I had had enough experience with physicians and their verdicts to know that this unknown Frederick Graham must be In grave straits indeed. But there waa all the more reason for hastening the message to his wife. "Thank you." I said. "I will see that the message Is delivered Immediately." "Thank you," the interne replied. "Good-by." I stood in puzzled thought for a moment or two after I had hung up the telephone. How to deliver the message with the least possible confusion to this other woman, to whom although I had never heard of her before, I felt sympathetically drawn.

I wanted to save her as much suspense as I possibly could. When I took down the receiver a moment or two later and heard a nervous "Hello" after the operator had secured the number, 1 made my vioce as cheerfully nonchalant as possible! "I Should IV GIal." "Is this Mrs. Frederick Graham?" "Oh, yes. yes!" The words were staccato, the voice that of a woman in agony. "This is Mrs. Richard Graham of Chase avenue," I said hurriedly, still In the same cheerful manner, "and I have such a good message for you from Remberton hospital which was 'phoned me by mistake. I told them I thought it would save time if I telephoned it myself." I laid special stress upon the word "good." and wa.s rewarded by a grateful, sharp exhalation of breath. more expressive than any exclamation or flow of words with which the enxious v.'oman at the other end of the wire could have greeted my phrase. There was a perceptible pause before she spoke. I knew from experience of my own emotional crisj that she was trying to compel her voice to calmness sufficient for utterance. "Will you tell me what it is?" she -aid at last, and the. tears sprang again to my eyes at the sound of her tremulous voice. I recited the message slowly and distinctly. Another pause, and then the voice again, this time with a distinct trace Of SObS. "Thank you so much. You are very klrd indeed to take so much trouble for a stranger. I have waited so long for that message. I am Infinitely obliged to you." I have always rather prided myself upon reading people through their voices. It's a hobby of mine. I visualized this woman upon the instant. A stately, gray-haired woman, cultured, well bred, whose inbred and trained courtesy no emergency could ever make her forget a sudden impulse of liking, longing to serve her seized me. "I will see to it that if any other message comes by mistake to me you will get it at once." I promised. "And I wish I could be of service to you. You're a stranger here, are you not?" "We have only lived here three months." the tremulous voice answered. "I know no one in the village. Mr. Graham has been ill ever since we have been here." "Please don't consider it an intrusion if I ask to come to se-e you." I returned. "I have known what it means to be alone.among strangers." "Intrusion!" The voice was eloquent. "I should be so glad to see you." "I am coming soon," I replied earnestly.

That the peace treaty and the Lfague of Nations will never be ratified unless express reservations are made that the United States can withdraw without the consent of any otier nation, is the opinion of Hon. Leslie M. Shaw, ex-goernor of the state of Iowa. In an Interview with a News-Times reporter, Mr. Shaw, who debated the government ownership of railroads with Dr. Charles Zueblin at the chautauqua Friday night, made the following statement relative to ratilicatlon of the Ledgue of Nations: "Ambiguities are the prime causes of war as well as of litigation. If the constitution of the United States had expressly provided that the several states might withdraw or had made it clear that they could not

withdraw tho Civil war would have;

been avoided. It seems to me the man is worse than an idiot who insists that thö admitted uncertainty in x withdrawal from the League of Nations shall be perpetuated. "This much is certain, the treaty will never be ratified unless express i eser ations arc made that we can withdraw without asking the consent or approval of any ether nation:

second, that we can exclude from

liizenMiip or uomiciie any race us well as any individual; third, that we can impose for revenue or fo protection any tariff wo please, and fourth, that the Monroe doctrine with all that it is understood to imply is expressly reserved from the Jurisdiction of the League of Nations. "f these, as some insist, are already safeguarded, the nations will acquiesce and it will not be necessary to recommit the treaty. If objections are to be raised to these reservations by any nation the time to have them raised is before the treaty is ratified. "That each of these questions is now shrouded tn ambiguity and uncertainty is conceded by everyone. Why insist that they shall be left fruitful causes of war if it be the purpose to prevent war why not prevent the causes of war'."

sites in the head? I have gotton out the bugs, bui I cannot get rid of the eggs. Answer: Wash the head with equal parts of kerosene and vinegar, being careful not to let it run down over the face or neck. The kerosene wlil kill any lice that may be left

and the vinegar will dissolve the sticky substance that binds the nits

to the hair. This should be done several times with intervals of two or three daya between the treatments.

spiiAYs, ;auc.li:s. and iivh TKKATMKXTS. At times medicines are applied to the throat by pargrlinp. and to the nose and throat by spraying. Children should be taught how to gargle ihe throat while they are well, as a child with a high temperature and an aching throat is in no condition to learn unything. A good cleansing pargle is a teaspoonful of baking tioda. or common table salt in a glaM of warm water. As a rule it is better to parole the throat than to spr;iy it, as a larger amount of the solution can be applied directly to the affected part. Nose sprays should not be used except when ordered by a doctor. After using a nose or throat spray the nozzle should be boiled immediately, dried and the entire ap1 .ir.ifjs kept in a clean cloth or box

A surprising r.umber of families.! who have progrc.-c 1 beyond the ! community towel stage, still use a common nose spray without even taking the trouble to wash the r.oz-! z:e. A good way to cleanse the nose I In a case of cold la to make a cup: of tho hand and snuffle salt solu-' tion up the no-o. However, do not hae :he solution too strong. Re-1 member a teaspoonful to a glass of water is suilicient. a strong solution is .rriiat::g n the mucous membrane '.nsteal of soc thing. Affections of th? ncse and throat often extend up the Vile 'eading from the throat to the c r and cause farache. In such cases a ht water bottle will give much relief. It is seldom necetsnry to put things into tlv ?fr to step the pain. When it 's necessary use one drop of glyrir.e and then one drop of laudanum into the affected ear; cover with a hot water bottle. Never attempt to put into he ear the hundred and on-1 articK recommended 'n- friends. It is alwa;, s wise m case of earache to call in a doctor. At limes after the ar' begins to diseharge the doctor will order it e'e.ir.seil by a gentle stre trn of water from a syrince. I"se water as warm as the patient car. orr f or ao!y stand, be sure that all :!; air has r.ren exyelled from the syiinge, and have he F.ow ger.t!e and even.

X. writes: Is diphtheria a germ disease, and does it affect the heart? Is there a breaking out with it? When should you use anti-toxin, and how often should it be used, and how much for a child five and a half years old? Answer: Diphtheria is a germ disease. Very often it affects the 'teart. Patients have been known to die suddenly of heart failure when they were apparently well. A rash is not a symptom of diphtheria. As to the. use of anti-toxin, when and how often must be left to the dotcor entirely. Anti-toxin is something that the general public cannot fool with.
