WOMEN HOPELESS

AT FIGURES.

Evidence Found In Bridge Scores.

Advice on what to say and what to avold when speaking to an au- dience of women was given by Mrs. Alfred

Watt, founder of the Women's Institutes in the British Isles, in a speech in London to would-be women orators.

Among the things she warned them to avoid at all costs were general statements, anything which required long explanation, facts which were out of the picture, and long and frequent statistics. She said:

"Most women are constitutionally unable to think in figures. I may be belittling some members of my sax when I say this, but having got along. all my life without figures, I am not inclined to be predisposedį towards those exceptional women who are brilliant at figures.

"Have you ever watched four women round a bridge table adding up their scores? No two of them will do it in the same way, "

"The most extraordinary examples of feminine calculation go on when the average woman has to enter into the realm of figures."

On the question of clothes, Miss E. H. Pratt said she thought women had much to learn from men. She added:

"I am not going to suggest that men are very thrilling to look at, but I think we women are even worse. I believe that, if we cared, we could think out a much more artistic and, serviceable form of clothing than that worn by either men or women to-day."

MIL

FOR

BABIES

Baby so easily digests

LACIO GEN

Baby is happy and healthy o Lactogen-the dried milk food→→→ because she gets all the nourishment she needs quickly and easily.

Lactogen is as easily digested as breast milk. The special way in which Lactogen is prepared ensures a fine flaky curd, and breaks down the fat of the milk Into very tiny globules. which are quickly and eaally digested by even the most de- licate infant........

Lactogen la' pure, fresh, full-cream milk, with extra cream and natural milk sugar added, made germ-free and dried by Lactogen processes which also preserve unchanged the vala- able mineral and vitamin content of the fresh milk. Lactogen is thus made, in all important respects, exactly like breast milk

Even the most delicate baby can take Lactogen as her sole food from birth. And as a supplementary, or alternate feed, Lactogen has no equal. Unlike raw milk, Lactogen never varles" in quality, or constitution, whenever or wherever you buy. "Put Baby on Lactogen," Doctors and Nurses all over the world are now telling Mothers.
