Oshawa City Council at Monday night's meeting adopted a clause in the report of the Board of Works to the effect that the Board was satisfied that the findings of the Street subway had not been released to the press by any city official, If it were not so late in the year we would suggest that the Board of Works should have called in Sherlock Holmes to unravel the mystery. It so happens that this newspaper did not obtain a copy of the Railway Commission's report from any city official or from any member of the city council, But what dif- ference would it have made if we had? The supposed secret document is public property and was public property just as soon as it was released to anyone by the Railway Board, It does not matter that the City Council did not meet for a few days or if it had not met for a few months, The mem- bers of the City Council did not act as pri- vate individuals in asking the Railway Board to determine the apportionment of cost of the subway. They acted as the elected re- presentatives of the citizens, As soon as the Railway Board issued its findings the people ~ had a right to know what those findings were. There is nothing secret about it. No after the honeymoon is over and they settle down to the serious business of married life he will cure his darling wife of that silly giggle or of chewing gum with too great show of enterprise. And the wife. She is laying her plans long before the wedding to cure the most perfect and yet imperfect man of those little vices which annoy her but about which she is loath to annoy him until the knot is safe- ly tied and sealed. Brides and bridegrooms love "as is" but they have their fingers crossed. They take each other for better or for worse, with res- ervations which are effective 'when they are "at home to their friends." This refining and reforming process may . run smoothly if both parties to the contract possess tact and diplomacy and exercise them in bringing about those little "much. to-be-desived modifications," If one or both bluntly criticizes the other they generally "fight it out on this line if it takes all win. ter." Wouldn't matrimony be a dull and mono- tonous experience if one could find a mate made to order! The reforming instinct is common to all men, and matrimony affords it an ideal medium of expression, EDITORIAL NOTES So live that you can laugh at any collector in town, The value of a kiss usually depends on the supply. The old-time tramp had a tin can also, but it wasn't on wheels, The man usually takes all the credit for catching a girl, forgetting she co-operated. To catch suckers, merely offer.unreason- able returns and let nature take its course. The thing that makes critics tiresome is their inability to find anything new to scold about, Discovery of America by Columbus cost only $7,000, or about what it costs to "do" Europe nowadays without a private ship or crew, Bit of Verse | FOOT WORK "Carry a pedometer from breakfast to bedtime.

Dr, F'. Fonseca investigated this and tells ys that very thin folks, treated with insulin, quickly gain in weight, not because the cells re~ tain more weight, but because the digestive system works so well that it is able to store fat in the system trem the food eaten, Hé thinks therefore that most cases of over. weight are due to the fact that the Danceeay manufactures too much nsulin, In diabetes, owing to the fact that the pancreas has been doing 80 much work, it get exhausted, and then does not manufacture en- ough; hence there is the loss of weight, because the diabetic patient must now produce sugar from his own fat, and not from the food eat- en. Dr. De Anciaes has found that insulin has a simulating effect on the hydrochloric acid manufactur. od in the stomach, also on the movements of the stomach, and fn. creases the amount of gastric juice What does this mean? That if your pancreas is secret- ing a goodly amount of frsulin that it will so strengthen the ability of the stomach to get most out of the food, that in addition to being suf- ficient to make blood and do the other work of the body, there will w some left over to be stored as at, Now while most folks are not wanting to store fat in the body, there are a rreat many individuals who need this extra amount of weleht, How is this knowledge going to heln hvmanity? Insulin will be used in selected cases to build un a tired thin, worn out body. It will be nsed in under- norviched children also. When Pantine determired to seek the rause of diabetes. and gave ns insulin as the cure he gave nother research men a substance wih which to experiment and the resnits have been of tremendous value to nffarine humanity, (Registered in aecrnrderce with the Copyright Act.)

Death was instantaneous, Dr. M. H. Limbert, official examining physic- fan, announced at 1.30 o'clock. Dr. Limbert said that there was a com- plete fracture of the neck.
