"Kelly in .Vew York gives you a dean bill of health and suggests that I keep you covered for your own safety. What's the idea?" "Did Kelly give you any explana- tion?" Terry countered. "So.

"That's true, hut Kelly thinks and he is probably right, that the previ- ous murders were done by a gang ope rating in New York. I've been in the limelight too much for it to be hialthy for me.

Come.s out of the in- terior of Brazil; is made by the In- dians.'' "Poison-arrow stuff, eh?" Dowidl asked. "No. Lhognah is just as deadly, hut d()es not kill as (juiekly as the arrow poisons used. The man who used this knows all about it and its use. It was a smart tiKk. This powder, when warmed, gives of a gas." "How could it be A'i'.'-med?" "The heat of tho fingers and the fact that the table was at the window in the sunlight. Did you ever watch any one working on n puzzle? They are constantly picking up a piece, trying to fit it into place, dropping it and picking up another. They bend forward over the table. Enough of this powder on the fingers giving off its gas due to ho<iy heat, would kill a man in a .short time.'' "IIow about this other fellow, the one we sent to the hospital?" "He'll be all right. I called the hosi)ital before I came over here. He'll be out tomorrow, but will feel pretty rocky for a couple of days un- til tho effects wear off. He had a lucky brejik.

There has been considerable di.s- cussion about rearranging the high school curriculum to do away with subjects that will be of little value to the student in later life, and sub- stitute others which will prove more beneficial, observes Alice Koss in the Sault Star. Yet one of tho tnost important teachings of all has been forgotten â€" the teaching of manners. Each year hundreds of students graduate from our secondary schools sadly lacking poise and a nice manner with which to meet the public. This, of course, is not the fault of the teachers. They naturally ex- pect the child's parents will see to its manners. Unfortunately too many parents are apt to neglect this cll- important item beyond the rudi- ments of politeness. Lack of child training is evident when we see the number of cases of juvenile dclin- (juency. If the continuation schools had a class wherein the student, who lacks such training at home, could learn how to act in public and in general develop a pleasing manner, they would do more towards giving that student a start in life than all the teachings of languages and other such subjects, often forgotten once the student graduates. When a girl or boy is interviewed England Takes to Milk Milk as a healthful and refrcshin;; beverage is receiving widespread ac- ceptance throughout Great Britain whore the opening of scores of "milk bars" in the more populous centres has been a great blessing to the dairy farmers who have witnessed a con- seijuent improvement in the demand for their output, ob.serves the Brock- ville Hecorder and Times. To the patronage which is being given these establishments there is now being added a large consump- tion of milk in factories. Within th;; psist four months, it is announced, the managements of no fewer than 445 factories in the Birmingham area have made arrangements for the mid-morning supply of milk to their operatives. Since the latter number more than 110,000 in the i.fcgregate, it may be readily under- Etood what this new market will mean to the producers supplying tha city of Birmingham, and if the practice is adopted in other industrial cen- trts, many of tho troubles of the dairy farmer may b-. at an end. In spite of the ir^portaiicT of cairying in this country and the necessity of a good )i arket being available for those en,£.ged in ic, we lij.ve yet to begin to appreciate the at'v?ntagc of milk is a beverage as they are apprecirlinj; it. by a prospective employer, that em- ployer takes note of the applicant's manner above all things, and his ap- pearance. Naturally ability counts, but it i.s unfortunate that more do not realize what a major art man- ners and appearance play. Making a French Heading For Your Draperies In the above picture wc consider the more forma! type of drap- eries for our windws. Without question, the most popular kind of curtaining being used for living-room windows this fall is sheer plain glass curtains with either straight or tie-back draperies of damask or other heavy material. The over-drai)eries are Iretiucntly hung on a wrought iron rod, in which case no valance is used, .•\lmust invari- ably, whether made with or without a valance, the drajieries are finished at the top with a French heading. iMost of the new drapery materials are so he vy that y.>u will find it unnecessary lo line them; however, it is important that the top of draperies be stiffened when a French heading is usid. A soft canvas which may he purchased in drapery departments Is generally used fur this purpose. From four to si.x inches is a good depth to cut the heading stitfening. Turn the top of the curtain niatoria] over it and sew as at A. N'ow measure the width of your curtain and plan the plaits lo take up half this width. In heavy material, allow about seven inches to each plait. For lightweight material, four or five inches will be enough. It is a good plan to let the space between tho plaits be the same as the amount of material the plaits take up. The first plait may come just inside the finish of the outside edge of the drap- ery or it may be placed two or three inches in. Start lo sew the plait about an inch down from the top of the drapery and sew it the depth of the stiffening, as shown here at B. I'inch this plait into three small plaits and, starting two inches down from the top, sew through as at C. Sew these plaits the depth of the stiffening, so that they appear as shown here at D. .N'ow turn to the wrong side and sew a ring lo the back of each plait as at K.
