Most People Eat Too Much What women give to the child- ren of today in training and In nur ture makes or mars the men and women, of tomorrow, writes Ds Elizabeih Sloan Chesser in The Glasgow Herald. And "nurture" 1s much concerned "with food. What we eat, we are, for our food becomes a part of our organs and our 'body cells. It we eat too much we become lethargic, dull in mi d. First of all, we ought to eat "nat. ural food," the fruit of the earth, the products of the garden. We should eat fruit, not onco but at evoary meal, That is one diet rule safe to follow. We get nearly all the sugar we re quire In dates and figs and fresh ripe fruits, and invaluable chem. fcals, mart from th" 80 necessary vitamins, in he cheapest fruits of every season of the year, Green vegetables and salads are essen- tlal to health, of course, and to- matoes should bo used more free- ly, but give children the fruits and they like. One Good Meal A Day Most péople eat too much. Too little work, "too much, "ood bring ago prematurely and that sense of sorrow which is a symptom of polf-poisoning more often than of 111 luck or misfort One good-sized meal a day is ample--it should never exceed two "courses and fruit--and this is best eaten after the day's work ig done, [4 Is He Germany's "Oxford Accent"? = Pjctured at the time he was court- martialed as a spy is Norman Baillie-Stewart, who, according to "reports from London, is believed to be the mysterious announcer who gives news reports from a German radio station in a very ecided Oxford accent, Baillie- tewart, an- Edinburgh-born lieu- tenant in the Seaforth Highland- ers, was known as the Tower of London's "mysterious prisoner,' or to his trial and i - 1983, for betraying military se- crets to Germany.

The Scottish people did dot take to umbrellas for twenty, years Aftey théy caught on in England. It is on record that a lajrd lent his umbrella, one of the first ever brought to" Scotland, to a tenant . who had trudged down one stormy four miles away. ty pay } wd dint VAY evening from a cottage in a glen rent, At 11 o'clock at night tfie tenant reappeared. "There's nae door in ' me hoose that'll let it in, so I've' rought it back, for I'm -thinking : yo'll no be, wanting it to come to any harm!" he told the laird-<who had forgotten to tell him that a press on a knob would shut jtup. 5 Japan expects to save about. 200,000 tons of coal a year by re- cont, th gas gonsuinption 10 per ent, ro! economy in govern- eh and munition planta 8 on household cons andle and Ribs - (72 2%) ) feast PLUG S MOKING TOBACCO "WORTH REACHING IN FOR!" Your first pipeful of Dixie-Plug will convince you that'it goes further and lasts" longer too. 1} 0 Have YouHeard ® 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 thé pig "would be there, sir?" said Pat. "Well, then, I'll just say: 'Mrs. Maloney, there's your pig'!"" li 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 1 live," said the Windsor man, "we grew a pump- kin so big that when we cut it my wife used one-half of it for = "eradle." -. "Well," smiled the man from Toronto, "that's nothing. A few days ago, right here; two--f{ull- grown policemen were found asleep on one beet." sin Ge A new élant on the old _adage: One man's loss is an- other man's umbrella, FE A soldier went to his colonel and asked for leave to go home to kelp 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 regimeit who handle the truth loosely, and I'm one of them. I'm not married." ---- . "Why do you call your boy friend 'Pilgrim'?" . "Because every time he calls he makes a little pro- gress. Pay Attention To Advice of Spouse A Woman Needs to Pay Heed To Her Husband's Criticism Of Her Looks The woman who turns a deaf ear to her husband's suggestions about her looks or clothes may be on the wrong track. And that is not just bécause it behooves a woman: to cater to the taste of the man In her . lite. It Is also because a man, if he is interested enough in how his wife looks to notice and comment -- can be of great help to a woman in finding out just what things are for her, and what things are not. When you ignored your hus band's "That lipstick is ghastly. It makes you look as though you - were drawing your ast 'breath," the chances are you should have said "Maybe you're right'! and just thrown the offending lipstick into the wasto basket, Better Able to Judge Perhaps just because men don't know 'what they are wearing" and what {s "smart this season" they are better able than women to judge whether a color or. a style becomes one particular woman. Then, too, remember that hus- bands are extremely critical. After all, it is their wives who either look beautiful and are a credit to them or who miss the 'mark and are not. 'How To Keep to keep her claws in the finset condition--even the apartment cat that seldom gets a chance to scratch a tree. Give her 'a sturdy, short post, with the bark left on, mounted upright on a firm base, and you'll -save money on slip- covers and upholstery. An old throw rug or piece of discargéd carpet which she will soon/dis- cover is her very own will keep kitty contented, too.

How can I cause coal to burn better, and also produce less. soot in the chimney and flues? A. 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- .gelf a shampoo? A.

Parish. joners spliced several ladders in order to rescue Scout and cat. tors Boy Scouts of St. Marys, Ont., during the past summer provided 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. --C A stout 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 mai 27 miles through the bush to Ti a- "mins Hospital.

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 for an after-theatre supper? Answers 1. The dish should be held flat presented at the left of the guest. 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, sumptuous gesture, 8, She should say, "I am Edna Gibson." 4, No; 'a well-bred person will: never make such blunt contradictions.

Experiments on COWS, fed on'a diet of sprouted grain, show that their productive life span has been increased almost one-fourth of their total life. RIB REMOVAL AND BLOOD PRLSSURE Yielding part of a rib may bring relief from high blood préssure. Dr. Max Peet of Michigan Uni- versity told the Kansas City South- west Medical Clinic he has found the best treatnient is. 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 six years 76 per cent. had gained com. plete or almost .complete relief from symptoms "of high blood pressure and 46 per cent, had shown definite improvement, 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 cach cubicle is a baby, securely protected from infection, for -the "ultra-violet rays déstroy 99 per cent. of the bacteria borne into the room by circulation of the air.

Expresses Doubts About The Absence of Hard Work in Today's Schooling -- Mould To Individual Needs Expressing doubts whether the present educational system was en- tirely justifying iiself and assert- ing that only through -education can permanent peace come to the world, Dr. R, C. Wallace, principal of Queen's University, In 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-' ilne to the mind was lost, Educa. "tion would ultimately make people hate, not other people, but things. Then they -could destroy the evil things, not {he people themselves, and wars would end, he prophe- sled. - Peace Through Education Dr. Wallace said that the pur- pose of education was "the devel. opment of those qualities' 'with which nature has endowed each in- dividual, and also to add to that body of men and women ' whose business it is to help in the gyeat ' task of moral, soclal and spiritual regeneration of the world In which we live." ; He thought that up to now, edu cationists might have fajled just through making education more in- Iona Station Cow 'Leads All Canada In Record Porforsiance Test; "Lena" a Holstein-Fries' Produced 874 Pounds of Fat in a Year F.
