"When she realized she had me (and that,I wouldn't give her the home my wife lived in) she began to laugh at me-and call me names. She quit work, of course, and when I came home tired she was al- ways ready to go places. How 1 longed for the sweet companion I once had! "l stood it for two years--and by the time I divorced her I learn- ed that my wife had married a good man and was very happy. "Why do men allow such women to wreck their lives? Miné is ruin ed completely. JOHN." * If there is any excuse for an * intelligent man wrecking his life, * as you feel you have done, it * is because he is the victim of his * own desires. * Married for years, he is too * weak to resist the promise of * thrills he has not known in a * long time. He is consumed by * a rebirth of blinding passion that * destroys his integrity, his self- * respect and his imagination. He * will not see that a girl who de- * liberately sets out to steal an- * other woman's husband lacks * moral sense and is incapable of * bringing him any lasting happi- * ness. * In other words, he does not * think. He only feels. * Stronger men, exposed to the * same temptation, do not lose * their heads. They suppress their * passions, They remember the * loyalty of their wives, the .res- * pect of their children, and refuse * to shame them. * We are all weak human beings, * but some have more character * than others; they invoke their * faith and their responsibility to * those who trust them, and so * they stand firm--and so they * never know the torment you are * enduring now. ~ * - * * L In these days of misery. and ~ remorse, you can at least vow to live henceforward the good life, if only for your family's sake. You have my comprehen- sion and my compassion. * * * When the fleshpots call to your lower nature, remember your res- ponsibility to those who love you.

Yesterday I went with friends to visit quite a_differ- ent part of Ontario. The weather was uot too good when we left "but the farther we went the worse it got. Ice dropped off trees and telephone wires and bounced onto the car windows like so many .gun shots. We went through Guelph, Kitcherter, Stratford and interme- diate points and finally reached our destination, which was Mitchell. Here we visited with friends of my friends and everyone enjoyed a nice, homey, informal visit, the women- folk all helping to get supper for - nine people. A kitchen is about the best social ice-breaker one can find and I always notice that a woman who welcomes visitors into her kitchen is invariably a person who is nice to know and easy to get along. Our hostess on this occasion was no exception. » * * In driving through Mitchell we parked for a few minutes at a house on the main street, and I saw something which struck me as very odd. Most of the cars were parked crosswise in the centre of the road, practically turning the street into a four-lane highway. It was the first time 1 had come across this type of parking but 1 have since learned it is also customary in Smith Falls and in some parts of British Columbia. If 1 were com- ing out of a store with an armful of groceries 1 don't think going halfway across the road to get to my car would appeal to me too much. IT have visions of myself hurrying to escape an. oncoming car only to sec an orange or a grapefruit slither from its bag and go rolling down the highway. . * . . sefore we left Mitchell it. liad started to storm and we soon found ourselves on slippery, treacherous roads. However, we had a good driver who was content: to let the cars roll by auntil we hit better driving conditions, which was not until we reached Cuelph. * Ld + There were some nice days last week but thy gadding seem to be on bad ones, which included a trip to the Sportsmen's Show in Toronto, when it was raining all the time. [ went with friends who had a young [Irish sctter entered' in the dog show, It got a red rib- bon that 'day and three ribbons the following Saturday. There ~ were, of course, many othér breeds and many lovely dogs in the show. One thing 1 noticed particularly --it was the big dogs that were the quietest and most gentle, Beau- "tiful golden retrievers, Newfound: landers, collies, white sleigh dogs and Irish setters--all were friendly and quict. The exceptions were the great: Danes, Over in the small dog section it was anpther story. You had to talk: loudly to be heard above the yapping of 'the terriers, SEDICIN tablets token according to directions is a sale way lo induce sleep | or quiot the nerves when tense, $1.00 | Drug Stores only! or Sedicin, Toronto 2. J | pekes, poodles and spaniels. An- other exception was the Welsh corgie8, They were small--but not too small--friendly and quiet. I am still hoping that next time we need a dog we can find a Welsh corgie. After all what ig good enough for the Queen should be good enough for us, It occurred to me while wandering around in the show that dogs are much like people. in one respect--it is often the smallest who make the biggest noise. And I don't mean in regard to size. ; + * * CY However, our main interest in livestock these days is not dogs but calves. One of our heifers pro- duced her first 'calf the day before I went to Toronto--which was very considerate of her. Had she not done so I would have missed the._ show. I 'don't like leaving Partner alone at such times in case emer- gency help should be required. And you never can tell with a heifer-- especially one who had jumped the yard fence just ten days before she was due to calf. But apparently the heifer's acrobatic feat was good for her as her calf entered this world in almost- record time. The next calf came along the day after I was. away. Now there will be a respite for a month at least. And by that time spring should be really | here. -- . * * * Yesterday I saw the prettiest sight--only it had nothing to do with spring. Taventy-five or thirty seagulls alternately circled and settled on a field very close to the house. It was fascinating to watch their graceful movements so close at hand. Gulls fly inland. when there are storms at sea--and from all reports there have been plenty of storms, on land and on seca. This we regret, but we enjoy watching the gulls. Breakfast Four studies to determine what breakfast means to us have been conducted at State University of Towa. It turned out that when young college men and women skipped breakfast, their work out- put decreased, their reaction times were retarded and their muscular steadiness suffered. When good breakfasts were eaten, work out- put increased, reaction times were faster and there was less fatigue, There was neither a gain nor a loss of weight though no breakfast was served in one part of the study and as mjany as 1,000 calories. in another. Skipping breakfast is not a good wiy of reducing. Basic or medium cereal breakfast of fruit, cereal, milk, bread and butter was "found to be just as good as a med. "ium bacon-and-egg breakfast, AUTOGRAPHIC A_ Hollywood starlet upset pre- cedent hy asking for an autograph instead of giving one. The auto- graph sought was Edna Ferber's, and the starlet's disarming request rdad, "It doesn't matter whether you write it or print it. 1 copy all my autographs over anyhow alpha betically in my scrap book." ox HOW 10 RELIAVE MUSCULAR PAINS Warm affected parts.

At the close NDAY SCHOOL LESSON By Rev. R. B. Warren, B.A, B.D, Thomas and the Risen Lord John 11:14-16; 14:1-65 20:24-29 Memory Selection: Because thou hast seen me, thoy.has believed: Blessed are they that. have not seen; and yet have believed. ; --John 20:29. Up to a point, doubt is a good thing, It is well to sift the evidence before drawing a conclusion. But past that point doubt can stifle spiritual revelation and paralyze spiritual progress! Such a doubter is to be pitied. Recently I talked with such a man, He wants to be- lieve but to accept the stories of But if he will surrender to Jesus Christ, he will: have such a mir- aculous transformation in himself that it will be easy to believe the whole Bible, Thomas was ready to die with Jesus but slow to apprehend the possibility of Jesus bringing Lazar- us back to life. How slow are we all to believe God for great things. Naturally for 'Thomas he couldn't grasp the thought of Jesus' second coming. But Jesus was patient and answered his questions kindly and clearly, God will reveal himself to him who is humble and really wants to know. Perhaps. it was a good thing that disciples on Easter Sunday even- ing. He had a whole week of tho- rough thinking mingled with per- plexing doubt, He determined he would not be the victim of any hallucination, He would know for. himsélf. Then came the risen Jesus. - He met Thomas on his own ground saying, "Reach thither thy finger, and behold my hands; and be not faithless, but believing." 'The at- mosphere cleared. Thomas was now certain and. exclaimed, "My Lord and my God." None of us have seen the risen Christ. But since Thomas was con- vinced, the basis for our faith is strengthened. Yes, Jesus Christ is risen. We may know Him as our personal Saviour. "You ask me how 1 know He lives, He lives within my heart." "You ask me how I know He lives, He lives within my heart." REAL TOILER David Selznick explained to a reporter that he accomplishes more than most men by occasionally working around the clock. "Take last Tuesday for instance," he is quoted as saying, "I worked twenty-four. hours straight--right of the interview a secretary (no longer there) =is supposed to have told the reporter, "Mr. Selznick neglected to add that he stayed in bed all day Wednesday and Thurs- day."

Ridenour of the National Sanita tlon Foundation has been seeking -the answer to the question: Is a washed dish or garment as cleam as it-looks? The answer is usually "no." 3 : Ridenour and his associates find that even. hidden dirt can be made to proclaim itself on any surface or in any material by radioactivity. The radioactive _ proclamation does not make it easier or harder to wash the dirt from the clothing or utensils, but it does permit de- tecting through photograBhy whether all or a portion of the dirt has been removed by washing. After they have been washed, soiled clothes or utensils are ex- posed to X-ray film, The dirt and bacteria ,unremoved by the washing but invisible to the eye leave tell- tale evidence on the film--evidence that enables Ridenour to determine the quantity and the distribution of the dirt and bacteria, A year ago Ridenour was using a Geiger counter instead of the photographic plate to determine the efficiency of various washing pro- cesses, His new photographie method is 98 per cent accurate, Tq, manufacturers and consumers {t indicates which washing process, detergent or machide is most efficient under given conditions and which surfaces are easier to clean.
