WOULD NOT BE WITHOUT BABYS OWN TABLETS Once a mother has used Baby's Own Tablets for her li'tle ones she would not be without them. They are the ideal home remedy for the baby; be- ing guaranteed to be absolutely free from opiates or other harmful drugs. They are a gentle but thorough laxa- tive and have been proved of the great- est ald in cases of constipation, indi- gestion, colic, colds and simple fevers. Concerning them Mrs. Ernest Gagne, Beausejour, Que., writes: "I have used Baby's Own Tablets for constipation and colic and have found them so suc: cessful that I would not be without them. I would strongly recommend every ghar to keep a box in the house."/ The Tablets are sold by medi- cine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co, Brockville, Ont.

Fi ere The Afternoop Tea Rite. Mr. Gordon Selfridge, the Chicago merchant who invaded and conquered London, is revisiting the United States, 'and' touches on Eome piquant con- trasts between his native and adopted countries. He has the advantage of a double standard of comparison, of see: ing the British through American eyes. emphasis on an English social rite, af- terpoon tea, which is the subject of mild derision on the part of visitors to the tight little island---until they succumb to it. Mr, Selfridge thinks that if Americans would similarly re- lax in the middle of the afternoon's work they would gain a poise and calm they really need and lose none of their famous "pep." When he opened his departmental store on Oxford Street thirteen years ago it was the custom of his salespeople to snatch tea as best they could. Instead of dis- couraging it he accepted it as a na- tional institution, and gave a tea inter- val fo each of his 8,000 employees, and "since everybody else in the country does it, no time or business was lost." He is quoted further: "Tea is brought around at matinees and movies, on railway trains and boats. Lords and commoners pause for it in parliament. You cannot en- ter any office, editorial den, public library, factory or shop in Great Bri- tain between four or five without stumbling over cups and tea things." Mr. Selfridge confessed that, person- | aliy. he did not like tea, but he likes what it stands for--a friendly getting together, a relaxing pause in the day's work, a slowing down of the Ameri: can's relentless push, not to 'a point of becoming less active, but more bal- anced. The American has a break- down at 60, he added, but the English- man was swinging a wicked. golf club at 66. 5 Aftefnoon tea has become a social function on-this side of the Atlantic, but it has not seriously penetrated the market place. After all, it is not the tea hour that gives the Briton poise and calm. It is merely one expression of his unhurried habits and ways of living and of looking at life, Before work slows down in offices, factories and shops on this continent in the presence of the tea-cups, there will have to be a radical change in the mental as well as the physical habits of the business community.
