Band mothers, that your editor has discovered just what a bad boy is. And
the amazing part of it is A LITTLE GIRL TOL,U mis.
Now, what DO you think of THAT?
. We ore suro policemen, magistrates, lawyers, doctors, teachers and
college professors will welcome tho definition of a bad boy.
The question is settled once and for
no boy Is really Dad who does not come
"little girl.
'. It came about this way: A very young and charming young gin, uc
!ompanied by two equally charming young girls, paid your editor a visit.
" Of course, he asked their names and
here they lived and whero they went to
chooU Little girls are very much Inter
ested In their schools at this time of tho
fear, because tho baseball season Is open

If It were not 'or the cirls. You see. oven

? What were ivo talklnir nhollt? Oh. yes I
Well, one of the glrla said there were lots
of bad boys In her school and your editor
finally got her to acknowledge that there
ss one bad boy nnd he chewed.
' .Therefore, a bad boy Is one who chews,
jBy careful questioning It was brought out
(that this particular boy the bad boy
-chewed gum. If you follow mo closely
tjou will see that a bad boy Is one who
cnews gum. To go a step farther, wo nnd
'hat, In order to be bad, dreadfully bad,
a boy must chew gum In school.
. Perhaps you are noi interested In what
the teacher did to the bad boy who c'lewed
Wn In school, but your editor Is.
For years I have wanted to know Just
hat a bad boy was and so I am satisfied.
Well, the teacher wrote a terrible word
on a piece of paper and pinned it on the
bad boy and made hlra wear It I hope

Its real contents, although performing an
Important minor rolo in Its delivery.
Monto surmised that he had been shad
owed to tho bank, and watched as ho
drew out the money! that his subsequent
placing the cash In the shoo box was tha
only real gamble tho venders took. There
they had relied entirely upon tho young
man's fine-spun seneo of honor, In which,
again, they displayed a superior under
standing -of human nature.
Honor satisfied, ho began his quest for
those behind tho vanishing shoe box with
an obliging manager at tho Chestnut
street A. D. T. branch.
"You have a red-haired messenger boy

ho naked.
"You mean Tommy, I guess." was tho
answer. Ho yelled: "Send out tho red
head, If ho la on tho bench."
A boy chewing gum shuffled forth from
a rear room. Ho was Tommy, and ha
recognized Monto at once.
"You'so found mo, suro enough," ho
said.
"Clear the gum out of your face, Red
head, and toll tho gentleman what he
wants to know," ordered tho manager.
"Who sent you to mo with that parcel
room check?" began Monte.
"You con search me." said Tommy, with
reluctance. "1 nnswers a call to the
Heading Terminal. A gent, with black
laco curtains on his flz. Is waiting at the
flower stand. 'Come along with me, boy,'
ho says, and wo goes to Broad and Chest
nut streets. Ho spots you right away
from tho opposite corner."
' "Go on, go on."
"'Take this check,' ho sa; 'to that
tall young man with tho smart topcoat.
He will give you one for It. Then go to
tho parcel room of tho Broad Street Sta
tion, get a package thcro that tho other
check calls for, tako It to the head porter
of the Bcllalrc-Blltz Hotel, and leave It.
Say It's for MrB. Goodrich, and sho will
send for It.' "
"What next, Tommy?"
"Nuflln. I dono as ho axed. Yes, he
staked mo to a one-spot nnd tells mo to
keep my mouf shut. Ho walked over to
ward Market street. Have a heart, mis
ter! I ain't no regular squealer."
Monto roared with laughter.
"Here's another one-spot, Tommy," ho
said, "for opening your mouth a dollar
In, a dollar out, so goes the world."
"Aro you satisfied 7" asked tho manager.
"Yes, Indeed. Thanks!"
"Shoo box for Mrs. Goodrich? Gone sir,"
said tho bluff head porter of tho Bcllalre
Blltz Hotel to Monto a few minutes later.
He explained:

Mr. Collins the sum of 110.
When Mr. Collins demanded payment
the poor man could not get the money

Mr. Collins said, "I cannot understand
why you can't pay what you owe, a

A raw-boned newcomer from Erin, In
the mauve-colored livery of tho hotel,
stepped up.
"Remember the handsome mulatto girl,
the one that got the shoe box?"
"Indeed, I do that."
"Well, tell the gentleman hero what she
done with It I'm thinking his wlfo wants
to know."
Monte flushed, but made no dissent to
tho man's boid surmise.
"Sho never as much as laid hands on
tho box, at all, at all," said the green
Murphy. "I carried It for her to the
lockers. I did that. She gave mo a six
pence for the Mot, she did."
"You mean a dime, man," testily Inter
rupted the head porter.
"Very good. Then I turned the key In
the lock and sho says: 'Keep tho key,
porter. Go to the Walnut street entrance
nnd watt for a tnxlcab driver. Give him
the key when he comes.' "
"Did you?" asked Monte.
"I did that The man come In five
minutes' time."
"Is that nil?" roared the head porter.
"Sho gavo me a shilling. God bless her
mistress."
"A quartcrl A qunrterl Man don't you
know you havo crossed the wator," angri
ly corrected the head porter.
"Here's onotner 'shilling' to help you
forget Ireland," laughed Monte.
And when Murphy had fnded away our
novlco detective slipped a $2 bill Into the
hend porter's practiced palm, with the
request: "Locate that taxlcab driver! let
me know when his cab Is outside."
Ho did, and It was simple enough. The
hotel doorman romembered the chauffeur
leaving tho hotel with a small package
and driving oft In a cab of the pattern
owned by a large public service company.
The manager of the cab company, from
his callbook. soon located the driver, and
Immediately sent him with his machine
to the hotel.
"Whero to?" sold tho driver as Monte
got Into tho taxlcab In front of the hy
phenated hotel. '
"Take mo where you delivered that
shoo box a few hours ago," he ordered
through tho open window back of the
driver's Beat.
Tho cab cut a sharp crescent on Broad
street and plunged northward.
"Atl right I Pennsy Railroad station nt
North Philadelphia," said the chauffeur,
over his shoulder.

Miss Grade Grasshopper went home
laughing Boftly to herself, for she had left
Billy Bumpus, the Goat, stuck fast to the
apple tree.
Sho soon saw Rover, the dog, coming
through tho tall grass, and she lay very
still for sho knew how he loved Grass
hoppers. After ho had passed she heard a
voice saying "Yunvyum!" and who should
It be but Mister Flea.
"How do you do!" exclaimed Grade
Grasshopper.
"Glad to see you again," replied Mister
Flea. "What mischief have you been up
to? You never Beem happy unless you aro
playing tylcks on some one."
"Ah! that's a big secret," began Grade.
"I made Billy Bumpus stick himself fast
to the apple tree. You ought to go and
see what he looks like!"
"I'll go and see what he tastes llkel"
exclaimed Mister Flea. "You Just climb a
millet stalk nnd watch the fun!"
"Oh, mo! olt; my! Think of having Billy
Bumpus fast to a tree. Yum, yum!"
And off Jumped Mister Flea.
From the top of the millet stalk Grade
Grasshopper watched Billy Jump and
squirm. He finally squirmed so hard he
got loose and ran as hard as he could
toward the barn. When he was safely n
the shadow, he said to himself: "I guess
I'll stop trying to find out how animals
and Insects got their names. I guess I'll
Just remember I'm a GOAT and not GO
AT things so hard."
Just then Mister Flea gave htm another
bite, and Billy said, "Ouch I" and then
was very still.

TREATMENT OF GOITRAND HOW TO
AID VICTIMS OF SERIOUS AFFLICTION
By WILLIAM
JN
Irc
Tilt; iuvue' siedlcale lo la Suisse
Romande, March. 10 IB, Dr. F. Mes-
serll reports somo excellent results In tho
treatment of simple goitre by the dally
administration, for a period of several
weeks, of acttvo Intestinal antiseptics,
such as thymol, salol, benzonaphthol. The
salol was given In doses of IE grnlns twice
a day. It Is best taken an hour or two
after food, and must be discontinued If
any signs of kidney irritation appear, such
ns dark-colored urine, pain or frequency
For salol Is nothing but a combination of
salicylic add and carbolto acid, and car
bolic acid Is apt to Irritate the kidneys.
In every Instance In which these reme
dies were given, there was a distinct Im
provement, a reduction of from ono to two
and ono-half Inches In the clrcumferenco
of the neck, with but a single exception.
Generally the enlarged thyroid complete
ly disappeared.
From India Doctor MacCarrlson reports
experiments In which goitre was produced
by the drinking of polluted water, nnd
cleared up by the administration of In
testinal antiseptics.
Ordinary laxatives have some reputa
tion for curing goitre, probably by me
chanically clearing nway large masses of
bacteria from tho Intestine, The greater
part of tho bulk of fecal matter In health
consists of the dcud bodies of bacteria.
It Is possible that antiseptics directly
influence the production of some specific
goitre-producing agent In the bowel. Or
they may simply diminish tho putrefac
tive changes always occurring In the In
testine of meat eaters, and so remove
some of the functional burden from the
thyroid gland, which Is physiologically
concerned In the destruction or burning
up of ptomaines or Injurious toxins from
any source.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Awful Name, but Good Medicine
I have heard of a medicine called hexa
methyllnentaetramlnn. For goodness sake,
what Is It for?
Answer It Isn't so bad as that. It Is
hexamethylenamine, and Is official In the
United States Pharmacopoeia. It Is given
as a urinary antiseptic, and is also ueed
to oppose Infection In the gall-sac and gall
ducts, aa well as In acute coryza or, as
some "fellers" eay, "cold In the head."
Personally, we think It Is a valuable rem
edy for chorea or St Vitus' dance, which,
of course, is also a germ disease.

A good friend has set us
to thinking. Sho said:
"Your Wcn&ttltft tit rimkJ m
patent mtJlclati."
Which means that our
ads havo given her thq
idea that tho Wondcrlift is
a sick woman's corset.
Probably that's our fat.lt
-wo may havo said too
much about the marvelous
health features when, in
reality, tho Wondcrlift is
quite as remarkable as a
stylo corset.
Here's tho fact:
Tha very fcataren
that make Nemo Won
dcrlift Corsets so
healthful also mould
the figure into perfect
fashion-tines.
For instance:
1. Tho Wondcrlift Dandlet pro
motes health by giving perleot
physical support. It also prevents
tha corse f front riding up and
twitting, thut preserving smooth,
fashionable lines.
2. It reshapes and reduces
too-full figure, and builds up and
rounds out a too-slim figure. In
other words, it corrects naturat
figuro-defects; insures comfort.
3. Tho Nemo "bridge" assures
freedom from preieurooverfjuitrio
region, promotes freo breathlotf
Ddgooddiftcstion, i.e.: HEALTH.
It also induces an erect, grace
ful, fashionable pose, without
which real STYLE is impossible.
EMPHATICALLY
the Nemo Wonderlift IS a
STYLE Corset of the. high
est class, and it is MADE
SO by its wonderful
HYGIENIC FEATURES
There's ono Wonderlift model
for very slim figures with sharp hip
bones and oonoavo abdomen No.
657, at $5.00.
Another for the biggest worrrsn,
with rolls of flesh all over No
998, at $10.00. This Is tho only
corset of its kind ever made.
Then there are other models,
not so extreme:
B54 -for short stout womcnVM.$5.00
B85 or tsllsr fall fif ures .SS.00
558 fer slander to medium. .JS.00
1000 a model ds lux, of tustme
roctde, for avcrafefuH urcl..)10.
We confidently re
peat this prediction:
In due time, nearly
every woman who
wears a corset will
wear a Nemo Won
derlift. NEMO SEUMIEDUCING
