Could Not Wash Himself Nor Brush His Hair So bad was his rheumatism that his friends declared he would never work again, Although he is 170 years old, he proved they were wrong. Read what he says:i-- "Y am seventy years of age. Last Christmas I was completely doubled up with rheumatism. I could not brush my hair nor wash myself. People said I should never work any more.. 1 am working harder than a yourig man to-day. Thanks, many thanks, to Kruschen Salts. I take them in my tea, and I have recom- mended them to many. I could not get in or out-of bed myself, nor sit up. But see me work now--12 hours a day sometimes. Kruschen Salts have done it."--G. J. - Rheumatic conditions are the re- sult of an excess of uric acid in the body. Two of the ingredients of Kruschen Salts have the power of dissolving uric acid crystals, , Other ingredients assist Nature to expél these dissolved crystals through the natural channel. In addition, there are still other salts in Kruschen which prevent food fermentation in the intestines, and thereby check the further accumulation not only of uric acid, but of other body poisons which undermine the health. Quebec's Motor | Accidents in 1934 -- The anid report Hatiriing au- tomobile accidents in the province ot Quebec during 1034, together With comparative figures for 1932 and 1933, was published last month, The report-shows that 7,030 auto- mobile accidents, in which 254 per- sons 'lost their lives, and 5,058 (were injured, over in the province during the year, this being a sub- stantial increase over figures for 1933,. when 6,118 accidents were re- ported, 228 people killed, and 4,162 injured.

BAKER 39 LEE AVENUE Toronto, le Ont. 2 A Gardening By Gordon L. Smith PPT PTIPITIVEIVTIITETTTe eee | SCREENING Growing. screens offer a solution to things which are better hidden. The straight lines of a residence should be broken by a few bushes and vines.. These growing screens are divided into two classes, annual climbers and tall plants which, of course, must be renewed each year, and perennial creepers and shrubs of trees, The latter are permanent but take more time to produce and may be supplemented the first year or two with annuals. The annuals, instead have the advantage of speed, in a month or two they are performing their duty of shutting off an objectionable view, or screen- ing the noon day sun from the ver- andah, and the very fact that they are there for one year only, allows an opportunity for change, and changing things about is one of the fascinations of gardening. Of the annual plants, African Marigolds, Cosmos, Ornamental Sunflowers, Larkspurs, Castor Beans, and other bushy, fairly tall plants will make satisfactory screen by early July. Among the annual climbers are Morning Glories, Nasturtiums, Sweet Peas, Hops, Scarlet Runner Beans, Cobea, Gourds, Cardinal Climber and Canary Bird Flower. ' GROW VEGETABLES QUICKLY If vegetables are to be tender, they must be grown quickly, Es- pecially with such things as radish, carrots and beets, slow growth is disastrous as the roots become woody and filled with .objéectionable fibres. But this rule also applies to salad} materials like lettuce. Therefore, growth should be pushed along with frequent cultivation, which in addi- tion to checking weeds, also con- serves moisture. Cultivation alone will often. keep the vegetables going through a dry spell, but of course, a few pails of water or an hour or two with the hose at such a time, will prove beneficial. Where the supply of water is not large, plant those things, most in need of extra celery, closest: to 'the pump. Fer- tilizer is another way of hurrying growth and therefore assuring' vege- tables of the highest quality., PLANTING Flowers divide themselves into main planting groups. The first to be sown are those very hardy kinds which naturally reproduce them- selves in Canada. Cosmos, Califor- nia Poppy, Alyssum, Calendula and Candytuft are very hardy and can be sown first thing in the spring. In the second group are the Zinnia, Marigold, Nasturtium, Stocks, Aster and Petunia, which do not" stand serious frost, and of the tender things, which must be held back until all danger of freezinz is over are the Dahlias, Cannas, and Gladio- lus. As the latter are all bulbs and do not come up until a week or so after planting, they may be risked within a few days of the arrival of really warm weather. 'Four thousand and fifty-eight ac- cidents in which persons were kill- od' or injured were reported during the year, 13 collisions Qeing reported between automobile and horse- drawn vehicles, with loss of life in each case, and 166 being reported where people were injured. There were 348 such collisions in all, Auto- ists crashed into trains 40 times dur- ing the year, into 231 tramways, and into a total of 38,444 other autos in all, -- Quebec Tourist Bulletin, DEADLY' GAS Carbon Dioxide Valuable For Breathing In High Altitudes The .researches of Professor Yan- dell Henderson on the part that car- bon digxide plays in breathing are now classic. At first he shocked physicians by telling them- that pure oxygen tends to retard respiration, but that when a little deadly carbon dioxide is added the asphyxiated are quickly brought back to conscious- ness. Now his methods of resuscit- ation are used in most hospitals. In the British scientific weekly Nature Professor Henderson, col- laborating with Drs. Samuel B. Childs Jr. and Hannibal Hamlin, pursues his inquiries further. This time mountain climbing is the sub- ject of study for the reason that tourists who ascend high mountains in trains and automobiles or rely on their own legs are often over- comme by what is called "mountain sickness," a form of asphyxia at- tributed to lack of oxygen. Last year Childs and Hamlin spent a few days on Pike's Peak (14,100 feet) and experimented on Yes, proud, envied and dub- bed aspendthriftjustbecause he eats salt whichis Joey in his In n't One of many weird _ Chockful of interest and en- tertainment forall.

Snakes Don't Like Erin's Dampness Dublin.--A new reason has been assigned for the absence of snakes from Ireland. It's the weather! Popular legend has it that they were all banished by Saint Patrick, the national apostle, 1,500 years ago. The more material view that snakes dislike Ireland's wet weather was taken by M. Farrington, lectur- ing at a meeting of the Geographic- al Society of Ireland here. He said Ireland boasted of a spe- cies of toad common to county Kerry but had nothing like the com- mon English toad. England was first occupied' by certain fauna which were slow of movement, also Ireland at a later stage, but as the land sank and the sea arose and cut off the British Isles from the rest of Europe, separating Ireiand from England, there was less time were more or less affected by mountain sickness. Childs and Hamlin and the three hotel em- ployes breathed measured amounts ot carbon dioxide supplied by cylin- ders slung by a strap over one shoulder. When fifty liters of air were breathed a minute the carbon dioxide was -diluted to 2 per cent; with twenty liters a second the di- lution was b per cent. The effects observed were large, "but on the whole the dence indicates that the was made with somewhat 'strain on the heart and tion." Excessive loss of carbon dioxide was prevented and the util- jzation of the available oxygen aided. . 2 The tourists did not wear the ap- paratus, but they were permitted to inhale carbon dioxide, Those who suffered from dizziness, nausea, blue lips, cramps and twitching were distinctly benefited. The effects are even better when there has been no physical exer- tion. Hence it is suggested by Hen- derson and his co-workers that air- plane passengers who travel at alti- tudes of 14,00 feet might well breathe carbon dioxide. Not much of the gas need be carried along -- because so little is required. All May Help Want your home town to go ahead? Then take hold and do a little pulling ahead yourself!

D. Falconbridge, K.C., dean of the, Law, School, pointed out that apart from the mental discipline in the study, of Latin, much legal phraseology was couched. in Latin, and that a working knowledge of the language was therefore essential to Jaw students, Similarly Dy. E. Stanley Ryerson, seqretary and assistant dean of the faculty of medicine, University of Toronto, said that the use of Latin for medical terms and materials madd it essential that medical stu- dents should have studied the sub- ject. Queen's Will Make Latin Optional In Arts Course Kingston.-- Latin will no longer be a compulsory subject on the cur- riculum of the arts faculty at Queen's University, except for stu- dents taking certain honor courses, starting with the 1935-36 academic year, The classical language is still compulsory for entrance require- ments, although it has been indicat- ed by Duncan McArthur, Deputy Minister of Iducation, that even this may be made optional.
