THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE ONT. THURSDAY, MAY 16, 1935 DOUBLED UP WITH RHEUMATISM Could Not Wash Himself Nor Brush His Hair _ So bad was his rheumatism that his friends declared he would never work again. Although he is 70 years old, he proved they were wrong. Read what he says:-- "I am seventy years of age. Last Christmas I was completely doubled up with rheumatism. I could not brush my hair nor wash myself. People said I should never work any more. I am working harder than a young man to-day. Thanks, many thanks, to Kruschen Salts. I take them in my tea, and I have recommended them to many. I could not get in or out of bed myself, nor sit up. But see me work now--12 hours a day sometimes. Kruschen Salts have done it."--G. J. Rheumatic conditions are the result of an excess of uric acid in the body. Two of the ingredients of Kruschen Salts have the power of dissolving uric acid crystals. Other ingredients assist Nature to expel these dissolved crystals through the natural channel. In addition, there are still other salts in Kruschen which prevent food fermentation in j the intestines, and thereby check the further accumulation not only of uric acid, but of other body poisons which undermine the health. Quebec's Motor Accidents in 1934 £ The annual report concerning automobile accidents in the province of Quebec during 1934, together with 'comparative figures for 1932 and 1933, was published last month. The report shows that 7,030 automobile accidents, in which 254 persons lost their lives, and 5,056 were Injured, occurred in the prov: during the year, this being a Btantial increase over figures 1933, when 6,118 accidents were ported, 228 people killed, and 4,162 Injured. Speeding was responsible for 3,344 Of the year's accidents, with carelessness of pedestrians with cause of mother 1,865 mishaps. Negligence on the part of drivers and chauffeurs taused 4,484 accidents, while the off! eial list shows that carelessness on the part of the operator of a vehicle Other than a motor vehicle resulted fn 698 accidents during the year Drunkenness caused 236 accidents, »nd defective brakes another 622. Operators of horse-drawn and . other vehicles, however, showed more care, since the number of accidents caused through their negligence was smaller than in 1933, and SO percent, lower than in 1932.

'DEADLY' GAS FOR FLIERS Carbon Dioxide Valuable For Breathing In High Altitudes The researches of Professor Yan dell Henderson on the part that car bon dioxide plays in ereathing art now classic. At first he shocked physicians by telling them that pure oxygen tends to retard respiration, but that when a little deadly carbon dioxide is added the asphyxiated are quickly brought back to consciousness. Now his methods of resuscitation are used in most hospitals. In the British scientific weekly Nature Professor Henderson, collaborating with Drs. Samuel B. Childs Jr. and Hannibal Hamlin, pursues his inquiries further. This time mountain climbing is the subject of study for the reason that tourists who ascend high mountains in trains and automobiles or rely on their own legs are often overcome by what is called "mountain sickness," a form of asphyxia attributed to lack of oxygen. Last year Childs and Hamlin spent a few days on Pike's Peak (14,100 feet) and experimented on themselves, three acclimated hotel employes and thirty tourists who were more or less affected by mountain sickness. Childs and Hamlin and the three hotel em- ployes breathed measured amounts of carbon dioxide supplied by cylinders ilung by a strap over one shoulder. When fifty liters of air were breathed a minute the carbon dioxide was diluted to 2 per cent.; with twenty liters a second the dilution was 5 per cent. The effects observed were not large, "but on the whole the evidence indicates that the exertion was made with somewhat less strain on the heart and respiration." Excessive loss of carbon dioxide was prevented and the utilization of the i available oxygen aided. The tourists did not wear the apparatus, but they were permitted to inhale carbon dioxide. Those who suffered from * dizziness, nausea, blue lips, cramps and twitching were distinctly benefited. The effects are even better when there has been no physical exertion. Hence it is suggested by Henderson and his co-workers that plane passengers who travel at altitudes of 14,00 feet might well breathe carbon dioxide. Not much of the gas need be carried along -- because so little is required. All May Help Want your home town to go ahead? Then take hold and do a little pulling ahead yourself!

One of the most important developments known to Lancashire for many years -- and an indication of th* faith of one of the world's largest concerns in the industrial future of Lancashire -- is the announce nient that Messrs. Courtaulds, Ltd., are to built a huge rayon factory at Messrs. Courtauld, six years ago, acquired about 340 acres of land at Ribbleton, near Preston, and it is on part of this site that the new factory is to be built. It is expected that the works, which will be the firm's larges -single "unit" in Britain and will embody many new features, will be completed in about eighteen months' time. Work will be found for about 2,000 workpeople at the start, increasing to 3,000 a»s the factory gets into full production. The firm expect to add at least 30 percent, to their production of viscose yarn with the new factory. Snakes Don't Like Erin's Dampness Dublin.--A new reason has been assigned for the absence of snakes from Ireland. It's the weather! Popular legend has it that they were all banished by Saint Patrick, the national apostle, 1,500 years ago. The more material view that snakes dislike Ireland's wet weather was taken by M. Farrington, lecturing at a meeting of the Geographical Society of Ireland here. He said Ireland boasted of a species of toad common to county Kerry but had nothing like the common English toad. England was first occupied by certain fauna which were slow of movement, also Ireland at a later stage, but as the land sank and the sea arose and cut off the British Isles from the rest of Europe, separating Ireland from England, there was less time for the fauna to move from the mainland, he said. also had no snakes, although South America was a comparatively sr.aky region. The reason for the absence of the reptiles was undoubtedly due, he said, to wet weather in both parts of the world. we find ourselves unreasonable reason that leads us to that ,-.ery."i-HaveIock Ellis. Latin Held Need In Professions Toronto.--While Latin may be dropped as a compulsory mati lation subject, as suggested by Duncan McArthur, Deputy Minister of Education, there appears little lihood of it being eliminated a; entrance requirement at Osgoode Hall and the faculty of medicir J. D. Falconbridge, K.C., dean of the Law School, pointed out that apart from the mental disciplin the study of Latin, much legal phraseology was couched in Latii and that a working knowledge of the language was therefore essential to law students. Similarly Dr. E. Stanley Ryerson, secretary and assistant dean of the faculty of medicine, University of Toronto, said that the use of Latin for medical terms and material! made it essential that medical students should have studied the subject. Queen's Will Make Latin Optional In Arts Course Kingston.--Latin will no longer be a compulsory subject on the curriculum of the arts faculty ai Queen's University, except for students taking certain honor courses, starting with the 1935-36 academic year. The classical language is still compulsory for entrance requirements, although it has been indicated by Duncan McArthur, Deputy Minister of Education, that € this may be made optional. Under the new curriculum at Queen's, Latin 1 is made optional with mathematics 1 for all students registered in a pass arts course. Birth Rate Is Lower, Deaths, Marriages Up Ottawa.--A decline of 1% per cent, was shown in the number of births registered in 70 cities and towns with a population of 10,000 or more, when they numbered 6,755 in March, against 6,855 in the same eau of Statistics reported recently. Deaths numbered 4,309, against 4,298 in March, 1934, and marriages showed a 15 per cent, increase with 1,910, compared with 1,658 in the same month last year. During the three months ended March births were 19,414, deaths 12,805, and marriages 5,815, against 19,610 births, 11,966 deaths and 5,614 marriages during the same COUTING Here r Thi lere r ihere Everywhere , A brother to every other Scout, without regard to race Record-breaking gatherings of Boy Scouts and Girl Guides have been greeting Lord and Lady Baden Powell, World Chief Scout and Chief Guide, since their arrival in Victoria for the opening rally of their tour, Saturday, April 13.

St. George, as the Patron Saint of Scouting, was remembered by special Scout services and banquets, April 23rd, by many Scout Groups throughout Canada. The big event was a radio address by the Chief Scout of the World, from Calgary. One thousand picked Scouts from England and Wales participated in annual National Scout Service St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, on Sunday, April 28, and heard an address by the Dean of Windsor. The service was broadcast. Another St. George's Day broad- cast was an addre&s in English from Sweden by H.R.H. Prince Gus-tav Adolf.
