gaging in special medical research work. There are now 7,219 women physicians in the country against 9.015 In 1910. These do not indicate, however, that fewer women are going into medicine. There is also a proportlonaT decrease in the number of men phyelcians, due to the more requirements of medical schools and recent laws in a number of states requiring state examinations and licensing of all practicing physicians. The majority of these women physicians are carrying on their own private practices, but a great many tire In salaried positions.

Women's colleges employ them as resident physicians and instructors in uhysio-logy and hygiene. Women instructors in medical schools are rare. Dr. Mary Lucas Keens has recently been appointed by the university ot London to head the chnt' of anatomy in the London (Royal Free Hospital) School ot Medicine for Women. She is said to be the first feminine professor of anatomy the world.

Made In Holland In the seventeenth century Holland was the centre of the trade of making decorated gold and silver thimbles for the ladies of royalty and houses of "nobility." Thimbles were used as bridal presents, with coat-of-arms engraved on them and fanciful phrasing, as "It is sweet to be remembered." "Love me always and truly." In 1695 a Hollander took the thimble to England and made a fortune, selling it as a novelty. It once took twenty men to make the thimble. Now the cheaper forms are made by machinery, in big lots like cartridges and milled by a hand tool.

'ow Made of Celluloid The American modern thimble, is made of celluloid, tin covered brass or steel, or nickel, and gold and kil-ver. It is one of the $1,000,000 industries that has passed unnoticed among the 300.000 other industries of the United States. Commerce reports seem to have neglected it. It is lost among the general classification of 22.000 miscellaneous industries. There are few records of imports Or exports of thimbles, yet One Philadelphia house exports nickel thimbles all over the world and come gold ones to South America.

Barring those made of gold and silver, the women of America could not have their thimbles but for the raw nickle thot conies to us from Canada or from New Caledonia, the celluloid, one of the constituents of which is camphor from Japan; and tin, chiefly from the Malay Peninsula, artly from Bolivia and partly from China. In fancy and in fact the thimble links the American woman with overseas trade.

When women of the American frontier wanted a thimble or a fire shovel they often were forced to use rawhjde or.

The hearth fire has all but gone. The older and finer makes are being sought after as antiques, and preserved for the same reason that are the splendid fire shovels- of the Mycenaean Age. made some thousand years before the Christian era. We make snow shovels and coal shovels and fteam shovels by the ton, but fewer hearth shovels- Important as the article is, the making of thimbles has alwtlys a pigmy among the industries. Industrial history has played hkle-and-seek with it.

Its making has always been something of a mystery, says the Baltimore Sun. I Once Worn On Thumb It is known since the earliest times there have been thimbles of silver, gold, Ivor, porcelain, bone, Iron and bronze, end that is about all. The women of the ancients, in China, Assyria, Egypt, Koine and Caul, first used the thimble on the thumb, in the form of a ring. Then, olive-shaped, it traveled to the forefinger, and finally in" modern times, to the middle finger. These old thimbles, had dents in ALWAYS SYMBO HOI design if you need a dress for every day wear.

If so, it may interest you to know that very probably the fruit you are eating with so much enjoyment is of pedigreed lineage. If not the autocrat, the orange is tho aristocrat ot the breakfast table, for in the California groves, where more than half the oranges eaten in the United States and Canada are grown, the growers produce the very best quality of fruit from pedigreed trees. That is why this aristocratic orange, which adds pleasure to the opening function of the day, is so Juicy and well-flavored.

The breakfast orange is a health habit, for it contains mineral salts and acids essential to the well balanced diet. It is an appetizer and because of the vltamines which it possesses' has a tonic effect on the body.

"Close your eyes," said the little rabbit, all of a sudden, remembering the Dream Fairy who had once visited Uncle Lucky's little white house on the corner of Lettuce avenue and Carrot street, Rabbitvllle. Obediently, and maybe because he wished to please his little friend, the poor old homesick elephant closed his eyes. "I hope the Dream Fairy will come," sighed the bunny boy, as he, too closed his eyes, knowing that she would never appear unless he fell asleep.

Seeing the both of them lying so quietly side by side, Billy Breeze whistled a drowsy tune through the treetops, and In the next story you shall hear what the Dream Fairy whispered. Copyright 1924.
