The Congress voted petting was to be shunned except by those betrothed and young people in their "teens" Were characterized as unlit for en- pigement or marriage.

Trapped in Tub 4 Days Denver, Col.â€" Trapped in a bathtub four days, Mrs. Mary Benson, 67 years old and rather stout, was rescued by police and firemen.

Swallows Tooth Brush Ida, Kas. â€" Miss Grace Osborn, 19, saw a surgeon after brushing her "teeth. While wielding the brush, she choked slightly, threw back her head, and through some involuntary action of her throat muscles, swallowed the 6%-inch brush.

Offers Baby For Sale Batavia, 111. â€" Money or no money. Fairy Leino is not for sale. Mother love took care of that. Mrs. Eva Leino advertised that Fairy, her three-year-old daughter, was for sale. The price was 1500. The money was to be used to buy needed things for the Leino family, whose head has been out of work. Two women called at the Leino home prepared to lay down the cash and take Fairy away, but Mrs. Leino changed her mind. "I can't let her go," she said. "I would rather lose my heart." Meanwhile Leino has been offered a lob. 50 Pelts â€" Church Plate The Pay, Man.â€" The lay reader who serves the Anglican congregation at Moose Ijake, 85 miles south of here, had a surprise here when the contri- bution plate came to him piled with 50 muskrat skins.

Calif. â€" Development of a new method of packing California fresh fruits for shipment to Europe has produced a new market for the state's huge annual fruit crops. The fruit products laboratory uf the University of California, in conjunc- tion with the State Bureau of Com- merce, has successfully concluded two years of experiments in shipping fresh fruits to European markets. The fruits were packed in sulphurous acid for commercial use. E. M. Mark, research assistant of the laboratory, said that prunes, figs, apricots and peaches were shipped to Germany in 1931 and to Britain and Norway in 1932. All fruits reached their destinations in good condition. The canning factories receiving the shipments sent back to Berkeley samples of the products made from the fruit shipments. "In every case the manufactured quality was found to be of high quality," Mark reported. Consequently, the laboratory sub- mitted the process to California fruit shippers to be used commercially. He Never Lost Courage Of the youngest of Lord North- cliffe's brothers, St. John Harms- worth, who died a few days ago at the age of 57, the London Observer speaks in words that no one can read without thought of anotlier heroic life. In his early years he was "handsome, athletic, full of tal- ent and joyous vitality." T%en came a terrible accident which left him hopelessly paralyzed from the waist downward. But he resolved that his' spirit should not fail. He "swam powerfully and worked sere- nely." He built up a great business "He never lost his courage or his chirm." He made his life an "epic of fortitude and achievement."â€" New York Times. COULD NOT BUTTON HIS COLLAR Weak after Rheumatism There is only one way to deal with rheumatism. It is not sufficient merely to clear it out of the system â€" it must be kept out. For 10 years this man has been free from the trouble: â€" "A bad attack of rheumatic fever 10 years ago laid me up for four months. When I started work I could not raise my right arm sufficiently to button my collar at the back. Having to get my own living, I became very anxious, because of my arm being so weak, qo I started taking Kruschen Salts in small doses straight away, and have been taking it ever since. I am pleased to say I have not been troubled with rheumatism during this time. Although I am 61 years of age, I feel quite fit for my work."J. E. M. Kruschen dissolves away those needle-pointed crystals of uric acid which are the cause of all rheumatic troubles. It will also flush these dis- solved crystals clean out of your sys- tem. Then If you keep up "the little daily dose," uric acid will never form again. Woman's Hoard Saved from Fire Londlon. â€" A tin trunk containing $500 in gold and silver and a number of notes was -among the property recovered after a fire at a row of thatched cottages at Springfield Green, near Chelmsford. It belonged to an elderly woman, one of the tenants, who kept it in her room. She sent a message to the firemen asking them to search for the trunk. The firemen dug Into the smoking ruins until they found the treasure. The fire destroyed the whole of the t-ntages, and six families, compris- ing 20 people, were rendered home- less. They were accommodated in houses on the Chelmsford Town Council's estate.

In the British Registrar-Gei-eral's statistics for 1931, Just published, it is revealed that there were 311,847 marriages, which is fewer by 3,262 than in 1930. There were only three marriages in which both bride and bridegroom were 16, but altogether 779 girls of that age were married in the year, to men of from 16 to 60 years old. Twenty-two boys of 16 married wives whose ages varied from 16 to I 24. Marriage figures as a whole show that the third quarter in the year is the popular time for weddings.

The haemoglobin content of her Mood was only 7.5 per cent., her red corpuscle count was but 1,096,000. She was anaemic. The physician who examined her. Pink I'ills and their usefulness in su^h who knew the formula of Dr. Williams' cases, told her to take two of the pills ifter each meal. This she did and one month later had increased her haemo- globin to 88 per cent, and her blood count to 4,288,000. She said she had mote strength and felt better. Two months later both hatraoglobin and corpuscle count were norma! and she was well. When the haemoR.lobin content of your blood goes down your ciiersy, vigor and strength so down. To re- store them you must build up your blood. That Dr. Williams' Pink Pills do this has been proved by many clinical tests like the one above.

Transplanting Retina Called Blindness Cure M0.SCOW. â€" Successful restoration of sight to the blind, by a method of transplanting eye tissues, is claimed by Soviet medicine. At a gathering of eye specialists here. Dr. V. P. Filatov, of Odessa, summarized his efforts in this field, showing results which the medical profession here regard as re- markable in themselves and as the beginning of even more important work. Of nintM.y-six blind eyes on which Dr. Filatov operated in the last two years, tweniy-four regained complete sight, he says. He brought with him to the lecture platform four patients, whom he said he had saved from total blndness. Dr. Filatov indicated that the meth- ods used are not entirely his own, ex- periments along the same line having been made in various European cities, especially in Prague. Physicians here assert, however, that nowhere has the technique of the operation been so successfully developed. Dr. Filatov replaces a portion of the blind retina with a functioning retina taken from a human eye â€" usually an eye freshly removed in an operation, and in some instances from dead bodies. He described the process thereafter as a struggle between the blind and the seeing tissues for as- cendancy. In cases where a portion of the retina is still transparent, even though sight does not exist, his opera- tions proved more successful. Classified Advertising BABGAIVS Ilf CHZCXS. R.O.P.

Mr. Hsu Hsiching, Vice Minister of Indus- try, has announced that a factory for the manufacture of paper on a large scale is to be opened in Shanghai, In the past Chinese publishers have been dependent upon Japan, the United States and Sweden for their newsprint. But for a long period in- vestigations have been conducted which show that bamboo, grown abundantly in the Wenchow district, can be made into paper serving admir- ably as a substitute for the foreign product. The factory is to be capital- ized at $5,000,000, silver. Of this amount 12.000.000 will be provided by the government and $3,000,000 by the Chinese comincrci ' toiuerns.
