DON'T ENVY THE TALL WOMAN.

[BY A WOMAN F ́5PT. 1018.)

I see that some little woman has their matrimonial troubles when been grumbling because of her lack we'd much rather dance and be of inches. What wouldn't I give | to be just five-test high

I wonder if the petite, grumbler can realise what an ordeal entering a crowded room becomes, when you know that conversation will sud- denly cease and all eyes will be upon you until you have hurriedly dropped into the nearest chair. And that later, as you rise from your low seat, they will watch you unfold with amazement, wondering when you are going to leave of getting up.

The little woman can thank her inches that never has she bad to waste a whole day vainly striving to buy a ready-made frock. Na, she has a "Small ladies' depart inent" all to herself.

Health Talks.

DEAFNESS PRODUCERS:

The presence of adenoids and dis- eased tonsils during childhood pre- disposes an individual to deafness, in the medical experience of Dr. John McCoy of New York: Dis- eased tensils and adenoids make the child liable to frequent colds, in- flammation from which spreads from the nose and throat through the eustachian tube to the middle car, he says.

The acute infectious diseases of childhood form by far the greatest part of the causes of deficient hear- ing and deafness at this stage of life,

in his observation. Particular-

y is this true if the child has ade- noids and diseased tonsils.

"Deafness produced, under such conditions, may be by scarlet, fever, measles, diphtheria, chicken-pox, mumps, and whooping cough," says Dr. McCoy. With each and every one, especially the first three dia- eases, there occurs an infiamma- tion in the nose and throat that tends to spread through the easta- ehinn tube to the middle ear and there form abscesses that may run for a short time or for years:

This cream is delightful to use, toning up the skin quickly so that the complexion can combat the effects of cold and rain. Moreover, the cream is cheap, and economical, and it keeps indefnitely.
