COULD NOT SEW A BUTTON ON Her Hands Were Helpless With Rheumatism At one time she thought she would lose the use of her right hand. But "a blessing"'--in the form of Kruschen Salts--put her right again. "] was sure in a bad state," she writes. "In fact, I could not do my * housework. I was so bad with rheu- matism in my arms and hands. 1 could not sleep at nights, and I thought I would lose the use of my right hand. I could not hold any- thing, nor could I sew a button on. My arm would go dead. I was ad- vised to try Kruschen, and inside of three weeks I found such a change. I have kept on taking it, and now I sleep all night--thanks to Krus- chen's help and relief."'--(Mrs.) J. H Two of the ingredients of Krus- chen Salts have the power of dissolv- ing uric acid crystals, which are re- sponsible for rheumatic agony. Other ingredients of these salts as- sist Nature to expel these dissolved crystals through the natural chan- nel. No New Monetary Laws Introduced There is one country, at least, where no new laws have been instit- uted with regard to foreign exchange wihere they are still on the gold stan- dard and seem to have withstood the depression fairly well, It is Lithun- ania, in Europe, Her exports' are largely primary and agricultural pro- ducts, including preserved and fresh meat, pork products, butter, cellul- ose, live animals, eggs, wheat and rye, flax, lumber and hides and skin. The only exports of manufactured products of importance are veneers land leather. Lithuanian's foreign trade is confined principally to the large European countries.

GIFF BAKER 39 LEE AVENUE Toronto, Ont. Review of the Previous Lessons In Lesscn No. 51, we studied Tone in Line Techn'que. A very impor'ant subject and one 1 derived a great deal of benefit from myself, in going over this feature again. So the thought came into my mind, that it would be practical for our studen.s to go back at this phase of our lesson to review the work taken up thus far. v You will remember in Lesson No. 1, we made a statement that anyone who could learn to write, could also learn to sketch. No doubt you all now agree with me that the state- ment is not so rash as it may at that time have appeared to be. Many of. the sketches submitted to me since we started this Sketch Club indicate that the time has been well and profitably spent. As in Lesson No. 1, we practiced on strokes or lines as used in writ- ing, so, we too, continued doing the same in Lesson No. 2, be carrying on with these lines and developing them into simple borders. Then we studied the sketching of an apple in the four stages of outline, to a fin- inshed drawing in full shaded ef- fect, demonstrating the three di- mensions of height, breadth and depth or thickness The lines and borders were drawn with pen and ink, and the apple with lead pencil or a crayon pencil. Then continuing the crayon technique we drawing tones in lines, shading a sphere and cylinder. We also gave you some problems to draw with each lesson and answered any ques- tions which our students required assistance with, as they were con- fronted with various problems. With the work of Lesson No. 4, we assembled crayon lines into a pictorial effect representing por- tions of a brick wall, a stone coping, and some foliage. As one problem for this lesson you were asked to assemble the wall, coping and fol- iage to form a composition in pic- torial effect, which we illustrated in Lesson No. 6, to show the fin- ished result. In Lesson No. 5; we studied the use of spread lines for pictorial ef- fects You were asked to make a pen line drawing from a half-tone reproduction of a dish of apples. The method of enlarging and re- ducing the size of a sketch was ex- plained in Lesson No. 6, by using a rectangle and a diagonal line. We also studied the correct procedure of how to enlarge the apple drawing from the previous lesson. Lesson No. 7, brought out the problem of drawing three cubes resting one above the other and three different colors or tones of cubes. Then we also studied the light and shade effect of these cubes and a cast shadow upon a cylinder. The problem of a hollow hexagon was also explained and il- lustrated. We took up our first study on Landscape Drawing with Lesson No. 8. We here studied the use of a Range Finder to select compositions. Then we announced a Landscape Sketching Contest and offered three illustrations by prominent Canadian artists for prizes. Lesson No. 9, we continued the study of practiced ROMremotepartsof China come mysteri- ousstories of prisonersde- prived of Salt, a form of torture and death.

LL" 7d 4 Sketch Club &) use of a Range Finder, and also how to change a bit of scenery around in order to make a new composition. Lesson No. 10, illustrates new uses of pen and ink, and also brush tech- The method of using a decorative technique of landscape for adver- tising purposes was demonstrated in Lesson No. 11. We also studied pen s.ipple and spatter work by the tooth brush. Lesson No. 12, brought out the filing away of sample pictures for future reference. Lesson No. 13, was given over to answering special questions and problems submitted by our students, this proved to be very interesting and helpful to both the Art Director as well as the stud- ents. Lesson No. 14, was a continu- ation of study on tree trunks. Trees in different atmospheric conditions were dealt with in Lesson No. 17, such as seen in rain or snow effects. Strong sunlight effects on trees was studied in Lesson No. 18 together with the effective use of the crayon pencil for sketching cer- tain kinds of trees. Pine needles, reflection of tall grasses upon water, stone and grass in strong sunlight was studied in Lesson No. 19. Lessons 20 and 21 taught the value of carrying around a sketch book with you when out walking, so that important and valu- able 'little bits of useful material may be recorded and then filed for future reference. Lesson No. 22. changes the scene to water, and boats, and birds. The winners of our Sketching Contest were announced and prizes sent out to the three lucky winners. Contrasts in ocean going boats or ships were illlustrated in Lesson No. 28, in modern and early shipping events. A test drawing was asked for in illustrating with pen lines a pictorial scene of water, horizon and sky, showing clouds and reflections. Lesson No. 24, changes the scene to yachts. Then more contrast in boats as used on Lake Ontario as shown by the use of paddle steamers and modern turbine engine ships in Lesson No. 25. We went back again to yachts in Lesson No. 26. Small dinghys, both pleasure and racing yachts and also steam ships were illustrated, also a decorative bit of design suitable for marine subjects. Lesson No. 27 takes us into a study of battleships, and specimens of "The British Navy" were illus- trated here. Lesson No. 28 con- tinued this study on "The Navy" and its "Jolly Tars." Notes on Wooden Ships were discussed here too. Notes on Viking Ships were print- ed in Lesson No. 29. Also a splendid example of a combination of pen lines with the use of the crayon pen- cil in illustrating a modern liner against the sea and sky. In Lessons No. 29 and No. 32 we commenced a series of features in outline drawing such as the Cap- stan, an Anchor, a Ship's Cutter. Lesson No. 33 was given over to answering questions and various problems sent in by our students. A study of Design was commenc- ed in Lesson No. 26. The use of a "Docket" or "Time Sheet" was mea- tioned in Lesson No. 35. Also a filing system for picture: clipped for reference. Lesson No. 36 and 37 brought up the subject of tools CUTS & SORES Apply Minard's freely. It washes out poison and cleanses.

MAPLE SYRUP CROP IS WORTH MILLIONS TO THE FARMER The mild, sunny days of late March and early April will be worth more than $3,000,000 this year to the farmers of southeastern Quebec and the Province of Ontario. The output of maple sugar in Can- ada averages around 5,000,000 Ibs. annually at the present time, and that of maple syrup approximately 2,000,000 gallons, with a total value of more than $3,000,000. This output is produced by nearly 50,000 farmers in Central Canada and the total number of trees now being tapped annually ranges between twenty and twenty-five million. Six years ago the total output of maple products was valued at about $6,000,000, but gince then the trade in maple pro- ducts, as in many other lines, has been considerably reduced. The tapping of maple trees goes back to the Indian days, on the east- ern seaboard, and while little ap- pears in history about their method of extracting the sap and rendering it into syrup, references are found to the tribal dances, known as the maple dances, held in the spring, It was not until 1685 however that the maple syrup induxtry began to re- ceive prominence in the reporis of the governors and intendants of New France, Towards the end of the 18th century, the industry gained recognition as a commercial venture of some magnitude. Much of the ad- vancement of the industry is attrib- uted to modern methods of coliect- ing and boiling the sap, making re- fining simple and profitable. Al- though maple syrup and sugar mak- ing are still carried on in a more or less primitive way in some sections, there are also a number of refiner- ies using high-speed, scientific ma- chinery for the purpose. A new operation will give cours- ing greyhounds longer lives and in- crease their staying power. They suffer from "athlete's heart" during severe exertion, and the operation, which is painless, will allow the heart to dilate a little without dang- er.
