Th« season for measles is during the winter and spring months. One- half of the d<>aths from measles in Canada occurred in the months of January, February and March. A groat many of these deaths could have been prevented if parents had real- ized the danger and how to avoid it. The dangerous age for measles is early childhood. Sixty per cent, of the deaths from measles occur in chil- dren under five years of age. Some parents consider measles to be a nec- eaeary evil of childhood and that a it was too remote from th« kitchen and dining-room, and an air of mad»- to- be- used- only- on- stata- occasions ching to It so persistently that the man invariably stopped in the "mid- dle" room to lounge and read, leaving my cherished living-room to the isola- tion that the habits of years had ban- ished it.

The first symptoms are a rise in body tem- perature and redness of the eyes. Therefore, when a child has been ex- posed to measles, the temperature should be token on the eighth, ninth and tenth days after exposure. If the' body temperature has risen or the eyes are reddened, put the child to bed and Iceep him tliere. Bed is the one safe place to fight measles, and the earlier in the disease the child is put to bed, the less will be the danger of deatli or R serious result, such aa pneumonia, tuberculosis, eye or ear trouble. There is all the difference in the world between an attack of mea.sles developing in a child exposed to body chill, and in a child safe- guarded by warmth and rest. Measles requires good nursing and the care of a phyi ician. The patient should be kept away from other peo- ple until the rash has quite gone, and should remain in bed as long as there is fever or a cough. Do not let the child be uncovered and chilled as this may lead to pneumonia. A somewhat darkened, comfortably warm room is the best and the air should be kept moist and soothing to the air passages by means of pans of water or by wet sheets, which may he hung across the doorway. in the win- ter and plenty of fresh and and sun- shine during the summer. â€" Mrs. E.

"And am I to answer you in one word, Jean? I fear it's a word too wide for a mouth of this age's size. You will have to make mistakes and learn by them and gradually feel your way." "The most depressing thing about money," put in his wife, "is that the Bible should say so definitely that a rich man can hardly get into heaven.

Mrs. Macdonald had taken up a half-finished sock. and. as she d.s- po.sed of the chances of all the unfor- tunate owners of wealth, she briskly turned the heel. Jean knew her hostess too well to without a sword piercing their hearts and a cry rising to their lips. 'My son! My son!'
