DIXIE PLUG SMOKING TOBACCO HaveYonHeaid Patrick was accused of stealing a neighbor's pig. "Well , now, Patrick," said the judge, "when you are brought face to face with Widow Maloney and her pig on Judgment Day, what account will you be able to give of yourself when she accuses you of -stealing?" "You said the pig would be there, sir?" said Pat. "Well, then, I'll just say: 'Mrs. Maloney, there's your pig'!" Teacher (brightly) : "As we walk out of doors on a cold winter's morning and look about us, what do we see on every hand ?" Class (as a man): "Gloves." "Down where I live," said the Windsor man. "we grew a pump- kin so big that when we cut it my wife used one-hall of it for a cradle." "Well," smiled the man from Toronto, "that's nothing. A few days ago, right here, two full- grown policemen w^ere found asleep on one beet." A new slant on the old adage: One man's loss is an- other man's umbrella. A soldier went to his colonel and asked for leave to go home to help his wife with her fall house- "I don't like to refuse you," said the colonel, "but I've just re- ceived a letter from your wife saying that you are no use around the house." The soldier saluted and turned to go. At the door he stopped, turned and remarked: "Colonel, there are two persons in this regimen: who handle the truth loosely, and I'm one of them.

Better Able to Judge Perhaps just because men don't know "what they are wearing" and what Is "smart this season" they are hotter able than women to Judge whether a color or a style becomes one particular woman. Then, too, remember that hua- bands are extremely critical. After all. It is their wives who either took beautiful and are a credit to them or who miss the mark and are not.

An old throw rug or piece of discarded carpet which she will soon dis- cover is her very own will keep kitty contented, too.

BY ANNE ASHI GV Q. How can I test the purity of the all' in a room? A. Pour some lime water into a glass. If a thin, white scum forma on top. there is an excess of c*r- bonic acid in the air and a need of more ventilation. Q. How can I make a good sub- stitute for baking powder? A. Mix H -teaspoon of soda with l^-teaspoon of cream of tartar. This solution is equal to 2 tea- spoons of baking powder. Q. How can I whiten and purify a sponge? k. Soak the sponge in milk and thoroughly rinse in warm water with a little carbolic acid. Q. How can I cause coal to burn better, and also produce less soot in the chimney and flues? A. .\ suggested treatment is that as soon as the coal has been placed in the bin, pour a strong solution of salt and water over it. Wait until the coal has drained before using, as wet coal has a tendency to burn out the grate bars and fire-pot. Q. How can I prevent soap from entering my eyes when giving my- self a shampoo? A. Before the shampoo, grease the area around the eyes with vaseline or cold cream. SCOUTING ! Fn-mer world's heavyweight boxing champion Gene Tunney has been elected to the Executive Board of the Boy Scout Founda- tion of Greater New York. A summer visitor to Canada was Juke Waterman, a Dutch Boy Scout from near Amsterdam, who cam( across to meet Saskatoon "pen pals" with whom he had been corresponding for some years. By arrangements announced in August, all French Boy Scouts over 14 years of age were at tdio disposal of the French .Agricultur- al Ministry to assist in harvest operations. When a Boy Scout of Bishop- stope, England, climbed a 60-foot ivy-covered church tower to rescue a cat, he found it impossible to descend with the animal. Parish- ioners spliced several ladders in order to rescue Scout and cat. Boy Scouts of St. Marys, Ont., during the past summer pro\'ided life guards and swimming instruc- tors at the local swimming pooL First aid was also rendered chil- dred who suffered cuts and bruises on the rough concrete walls. A notice in the local paper advised parents to direct their children, in case of cuts, to report to a Scout for first aid treatment, as a precaution against infection. A stouc bit of backwoods first aid was that performed by Archie Macdonald. a former Patrol Lead- er of the 1st Fort Erie, Ont., Scout Troop, and a companion, while prospecting in the rough country north of Timmins. Com- ing upon another prospector gravely wounded by the accidental discharge of a rifle, Macdonald rendered first aid, improvised a stretcher, and with the help of his companion, bore the wounded man 27 miles thxough the bush to Tim- mins Hospital.

When a young woman is in- troducing herself socially, shotild she say, "I am Miss Gibson," or "I am Edna Gibson"? 4. When disagreeing with an- other's opinion is it permissible to say, "Xo, it is nothing of the kind," or "That is where you are entirely w^rong"? 5. Is it customary for a house guest to bring his hostess some kind of gift? 6. What would be the very smallest menu one should have fjr an after-theatre supper? Answars 1. The dish should be held tlat on the palm of the left hand, and presented at the left of the guest. If the dish is hot, a napkin can be used as a pad underneath. 2. He might be privileged to do so if one arm is paralyzed, or he is suf- fering severely with rheumatism. Otherwise it would be a very pre- sumptuous gesture. 3. She should say, "I am Edna Gibson." 4. No; a well-bred person will never make such biunt contradictions. One may say, "I don't believe I can agree with you," or, "Well it seems to me (so and so)." 5. Yes, It is often done, but not absolute- ly necessary. The bread-and-but- ter letter is really all that is ex- pected and required. 6.

Necessity Brings Back To Favor 'Bicycle-built-for-lwo' What Science It ^ Doing ^ SPROUTED GRAIN HELPS RESIST INFECTION Sprouted grain is seen as a pos- sible contribution to alleviating hu- man ilia by aiding resistance to in- fectious disease. Dr. Oscar Erf, head of testing and research at Ohio State Uni- versity, ass^ta that a "germin- ated seed diet tends to make hu- man beings, as well as animals, leas susceptible to tuberculosis, masti- tis and undttlant fever." Experiments on cows, fed on a diet of sprouted grain, show that then productive life span has been increased almost one-fourth of their total life. RIB REMOVAI AND BLOOD PRESSURE Yielding part of a rib may bring relief from high blood pressure. Dr. Max Peet of Michigran Uni- versity told the Kansas City South- west Medical Clinic he has found the best treatment Ls removal of part of the 11th rib and cutting of nerves conuected with blood vessels that lead to the kidneys. He said the operation is not a "cure-all"' for the disease but that of 194 patients so treated in sis years 76 per cent, had gained com. plete or almost complete relief from symptoms of high blood pressure and 46 per cent, had sho-«Ti definite improvement.

Ltd. r>uke and George Streets TORONTO, Ontario GERM-FREE BABIES Germ-free babies in germ-free rooms are the latest wrinkle in medical science to be developed in Toronto. Curtains of ultra- violet light screen tiny infants from bacteria at the Hospital for Sick Children; and how it is done was explained to hospital adminis- trators recently by Dr. Elizabeth C. Robertson. Six cubicles without doors have been built in the hospital. Dr. Robertson said. In place of the doors, batteries of ultra-violet ray lamps pour a steady barrage of germ-killing light across the open- ing. Inside each cubicle is a baby, securely protected from infection, for the ultra-violet rays destroy 99 per cent, of the bacteria borne into the room by circulation of the air. Education Should Discipline Mind Principal of Queen's University Expresses Doubts About The Absence of Hard Work in Today's Schooling â€" Mould To Individual Needs Expressing doubts whether the present educational system was en- tirely Justifying itself and assert- ing that only through education cau i)ermanent peace coma to the world, Dr. R. C. Wallace, principal ot Queen's University, iu an ad- dress at Montreal last week declar- ed that education needed to be lots more closely moulded to individual needs. But by making education more interesting, valuable discip- line to the miud was lost. Educa- tion would uUimaiei.v make people hate, not other people, but things. Thou they could destroy the evil things, not the people the^mselves, and wars would end, h* prophe- sied. Peace Through Education Dr. Wallace said that the pur- pose ot education was "the devei- opment of those qualiiie>s with which nature has endowed each in- dividual, and also to add to that body of men aud women whose business it is to help in the great task of moral, social and spiritual regeneration of the world in which we live." He thought that up to now, edu- cationists might have failed just through making education more in- teresting. In that it had become less exacting than a generation ago. "It takes really hard work to dis- cipline the mind, and yet somehow we seem to have forgotten that It must be done." he declared. lona Station G>w Leads All Canada la Record Perfomuum T«at; "Lena" a Holstein-Fries' Produced 874 Pooadi of Fat in a Year r.
