"Safe at home' is only a base- ball term," states Nell Norton in Healthways, "for actually the home itself is the scene of more accidents than any other place." Showing figures compiled by 4 the National Office of Vital Sta-- tistics, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and corroboration from other official agencies, Nell Nor- ton indicated that the most dan- gerous place a person can be is right in his--or her home. "More than three-fourths of' home accidents occur," states , the article, "in various parts of the house, and instead of being a haven of safety, they are the sites for nearly half of our an- nual accident total." The statistics in the article show that 25.6% of these acci- dents occur in the bedroom, 116% in the yard or garden, 10.3% in the kitchen, 7.4% on inside stairs, 5.9% in the living room, 3.9% on outside stairs, 3.5% in the bathroom, 3.4% in the -dining room and only 1.1% in the garage. "Few people rea- lize that highway accidents ac- count for only 13% % of the to- tal injuries annually," concludes _ the item, "whereas home acci- dents are responsible for 46%." No Accident When Princess Margaret visi- ted a diamond mine in Tangan- vika during her tour of East' : Africa, she was presented with & diamond by the fabulously rich owner, Canadian-born Dr. John. T. Williamson, - It was- this soft-voiced, hand- - some man--he is forty-nine and a bachelor--who gave the Queen (then Princess Elizabeth) the wonderful rose-pink diamond which she treasures among her wedding presents. His Mwadui mine was discov- ered when he -was prospecting in 1940, and was the result of a painstaking geological survey; . . there is no truth in the popular story that, while resting beneath a huge baobab tree, the weary Canadian accidentally, kicked a diamond out of the soil. ! - An average day's yield dtthe or mine is about 1,500 small dia- monds worth more than $15,000 and weighing less than three ounces. . His income from the mine is said to be more than $3,000,000 ) a year. He has refused offers up . . . . to $60,000,000 for the mine say-. . Ing: "I'd hardly know what to do * with all that money." o Cause Of Most Business Failures More of those pioneers who started businesses of their own five years ago are having a rough time. Business failurd¥ this year | have exceeded those for some years past. They have been hap- pening despite the fact that there has been no let-up in the gen- eral prosperity of the nation. The chief cause of these casu- alties is inexperience. Most fail- ures result from the emotional push to be your own boss. Those "who plunge into the adventure . simply don't know the risk they are taking or understand the im- 1 portance of business judgment. With all the prosperity around, there is intense competition in 'nearly all lines. This is especially true of small concerns in which are found the bulk of business fatalities, The winners in the, race are those who watch their accounting, their location, changes in the product offered and changing attitude of cus- tomers. Many new entries in the busi- ness field lack the capital to keep going until they learn by ex- perience "howto operate. They have to learn the hard way--by failure. i. The record will not discourage others from trying. What it might do is to teach them to use caution in taking the plunge.-- Philadelphia Bulletin.

Bob Fitzsimmons And His Wives Should a fighter get married or should he remain single un- til his boxing days are over? It's a question that can never be answered satisfactorily, for whereas some battlers lose their fighting zest once they are safely hitched, the records of others show that they have reached their best only after being married. : If you take famous Bob Fitz- simmons as an example, the verdict is in. favour .of the wives, He had four of them and won three world titles, includ- ing the heavy weight cham- pionship of the world. The son of a Cornish black- smith, Bob was taken to Aus- tralia when a small child. He built up a powerful physique at his father's anvil and at eigh- teen, after winning a novices' competition, he became a pro- fessional boxer. . He fought on and off for ten years without casuing a sensa- tion, returning to the forge contests weren't avail- able. Meanwhile, he'd married a young and ambitious actress, who, prompted him to go to America -- where _she felt were chances for both of them. They arrived in San Fransis- co in 1890. Both was broke, but within a year he had won the middle-weight championship of the world and his financial troubles were over. Bob and his wife toured the' music halls-with a play entitled | "The Fight for Love." It was a most prophetic title. During their travels they met Martin and Rose Julian, brother and sister trapeze artists of some renown. Soon the four were firm friends and Martin took over the management of Fitz's affairs, ' Everything seemed lovely un- til" Bob's serenity was shatter- ed by his wife obtaining a div- orce from him on the grounds of incompatibility. ) Hardly aware of what this meant, the boxer offered no de- fence. and suffered a second she announced her intention of marrying Mar- tin, With mixed feelings Bob and Rose watched the happy pair depart on their honeymoon. "Let's get our own back and get spliced," proposed Bob jok- ingly, but Rose was serious. 'She secretly loved the happy- go-lucky fighter, admired the strength in that anvil-built tor- so and had immense faith in his fistic abilities. "All right, Bob," she answer- ed quietly. "Let's get married -- I'll make you a good wife." Rose kept her-word and the nine years they were together proved the happiest and most successful of his life. She moth- ered three children for him and was the best "second" any man could have. She accompanied him to Carson City to see him fight Gentleman Jim Corbett for the heayyweight champion- ship. On the morning of the contest Mrs. Fitzsimmons retired to her hotel bedroom. Bob waited pa tiently for her reappearance but, as the time drew nearer for his departure to the arena, he went in search of her. At the door of her room he paused. The sound; of his wife's voice came clearly through the closed door. Rose was on her knees praying for her husband's victory. The fighter trembled with emotion, he could scarcely speak, Someone suggested it might be a good idea if he add- ed his own prayers to those of his wife's _ "No" said Fitzsimmons. "What's the use. If 'E won't do it for 'er 'E certainly won't do it for me." : Seated at the ringside only a yard from her husband's cor- ner, Rose watched nervously as Corbett fought on the retreat, boxing, in his usual style, and Bob, who was chasing after him in the hope of landing a damag- ing punch. Bob's lower lip was split wide open and blood trickled from his mouth on to his chest. Twice he was sent to one knee for counts of nine, He never looked like winning. : . Yet all this while his wife maintained perfect composure. Midway through the four- teenth round, Fitzsimmons closed in on his rival and Cor- bett raised his arms to ward off the furious blows that Bob was aiming at his head. "Go for the body, Bob!" urged Rose and 'the famous so- lar plexus punch was born. Fitz swung his left to the body. The blow caught Gentle- man Jim on the nerve centre below the ribs, Corbett sank with a groan and was counted out. : Bob worshipped Rose . and when she died in tragic circum- stances, he was a broken man, For some months he went to pieces and tried to drown his sorrow by hard drinking, but suddenly he decided that the inflicting heavy punishemnt on best cure for his grief would be to get married again. He did and returned to his New York home with a new bride, Julia Gifford, a twenty- two-year-old singer, whom he had met on a theatrical tour, Thinking to impress her, he ar- ranged for a near-by hotel to provide an expensive supper and wired to several friends to meet the third Mrs. Fitzsim- mons, A The party was in full swing when Bob got up from the table and switched out the lights. Then he pressed a button, a wall panel slid aside and there, a full length, life-size, coloured photograph of the recently de- parted Rose, - She was dressed in the full 'splendour of the trapeze artist; tights, spangles and abbreviated ccostume, and Bob beamed with pride and joy. } His audience was spellbound. Then Julia quietly left her chair and going over to her husband, switched on the room lights and plunged the panel into 'darkness. Turning té the guests, she said: "The party's over, boys," and taking arm marched him upstairs." The new marriage had got away to a bad start and it is not surprising that it did not last long. Two years later Fitzsimmons, then in his forty-fourth year, ~ had a bad beating at the hands of Jack O'Brien in his last seri ous contest. That defeat cost him his world's weight title. The same night also lost is wife, ; When he reached the dress- ing room a telegram was thrust into his hand. Peering through" the: bumps and bruises that sur- ~rounded his eyes, thc old fighter took the worst blow he had suffered that night, "I am leaving you for good. I think it's best for both of us, Julie." She had timed the moment to a nicety, bringing their mar- riage to a conclusion with theatrical finality, Ample re- venge for the innocent © slight she had endured portrait. "Actually, they were not div- orced until ten years later, but remained separated. Fitz busied hmself with boxing exhibitions and music hall engagements, while Julia continued her sing- ing career. Eventually she sought and got: her freedom and a few weeks later the old champion walked into a New Jersey mar- riage licence office with a young woman on his arm and asked the clerk to marry them. She was Mrs. Temo Slominin, over Rose's , TO BRITISH PORTS: First Class from $210 Tourist Class from $155 .

From a single eyelash a po- lice scientist can quickly deter- mine whether a person is Asian or European, white or coloured, male or female, says Professor Fujmatsu, He has spent much time studying eyelashes and his findings will, in due course, be used for international police purposes. Another scientist has pointed out that," although long eye- lashes are considered to add to the charm of a face, they are a sign of weak vitality. He has found that ailing children often have eyelashes twice as long as those of healthy children. Eyebrows, too, have recently come under the scrutiny of sci- | entists. They confirm the wide- ly-held belief that eyebrows that meet.in the centre, at the top of the nose, are usually a sign of quick temper. A per- son with bushy eyebrows is usually amiable, 'we are told. And if you possess arched and finely-pencilled - 'brows you probably have an artistic and imaginative temperament something of a highbrow, in fact.
