Ontario My Dear Wife: Realizing yau bave been in bas- pitai for three weeks, and know- ing that there's nothing like a cheery letter ta belp a patient while away the loneiy bours, thought I'd scratch off a few uines. Aiter ahi, writing you one letter in three wesks isn't going ta burt me. Guess you would like ta know how sverything is perking araund home since you leit, eh? Well, everything is just fine and dandy; no excitement ai any sort. I haven't bad a bath, because there is na ans ta scrub my back, and you neyer taught me haw ta use that iong-handied back brush. The plants are all wilting; do they nesd water in, the winter time, or do yau suppose leaving them in the window at night bas allowed the frost ta affect them?

Well. aId sweetheart, like 1 said at the beginning ai this let- ter, there's nathing like a newiy letter from home ta dheer a pert- an when things seem blue. When yau are able ta leave hospital, It will be nice for you ta return home knowing that everything bas gane along just hunky-dory during your absence. Cheeri three or four quick knee ber4ds. By the way, do you want me to take that sheet in off the lime? I mean the one that's been there nearly a manth, it should be air- ed by now. The clean towel yau put out for me ta use isn't clean any more, in fact, both sides are sa grubby it makes me dirtier to dry an it than I arn before I wash. Will it be O.K. with you if I use a fresh aone? I've often heard you say how wonderfui Javex is for freshening up face claths. So, when the face cloth I've been using for the last three weeks gat kind of smelly, I sprinkled it with a few draps ai Javex. which changed the smell somewhat, but doesn't appear ta make it laok cleaner; perhaps it requires a day or two to start fizzing. Oh, say, do you mimd if I use a fresh tea tawel? This one didn't look taa bad in spite af three weeks' use, until 1 mapped Up some coal oil off the woadshed flaor. When I spilled the paraf- fin, I grabbed the nearest clath, which just happened ta be the tea tawel. Befare you went away, yau told me how aiten ta run the dust mop aver the bedroom ifloors, but I've fargotten, so, just ta be an the safe side..and flot overdo it, haven't touched them yet, but will as soon as you say "when". Sa far, the dining roorn and sit- ting room ifloors haven't needed attention; it's true they are a littie dusty, but no real dirt an them. The kitchen floor has me alîttie worried because, although it has been swept twice in the past fortnight, it stili doesn't look quite as shiny as when you do it. Per- haps I shouid have used the stiff stable broam minstead af the corn braom. You wili be happy ta know that I have iigured out a good scheme ta save washing pillow slips too aiten: At the end of the first week, 1 turn the pillow aver: At the end of the second, turn the slip inside out; at the end af the third week, just rail it over; in that way a persan gets the max- irium mileage out af each pillaw slip without a lot of unnecessary washing. It is on the same prin- ciple as rotating the tires on a car. Yau will see by the foregoing that your husband is one af thase chaps who try to, keep the house spic and span. And its a pleas- ure ta be able ta report ta you that everythmng is just dandy. Sa .you just relax in haspital and get well, you haven't a thing ta worry about.
