A ---------- Accessories Add Final Note To Day And Evening Costumes Paris--The importance of acces- gories in the smart woman's costumes cannot be too often emphasized. Parisian designers are finding new ways to develop the tendencies to- ward matching ensembles in this field. Leather as soft as silk, and as easily worked, after being tanned, softened, stretched and dyed in many colors, is being used to create en- sembles of trimmings and accessories which will meet the greatet popuslar approval, . Although it is not new to match -, for sports or travelling, shoes, gloves, belt and purse of the same leather-- box, crocodile pigskin or peccary, in the scéle of shades f:cm light Frown to dark havana,--this original in- novation in accessories which om- plete street costumes is entirely new and it is becoming more perfect every day. One of the most attractive ex- amples of this new mode is the en- semble for an elegant purple-blue afternoon dress. A high white belt is perforated in a tiny charming design, and the gloves, shoes and purse 'of the same white leather repeat this cut-out design-through which shows a background the same shade as the HER ARMS AND LEGS IMMOVABLE Ten Years With Rheumatism To this woman it must have been like commencing to live a new life, when she began to use her arms and legs again, afte they had been helpless for ten years." "I suffered with rheumatism," she 'writes, "and had been bedrid- den "since 1920. I could mot move arms or legs, and had to be fed like a child. Everybody 'thought 1 should be an invalid all' my life. I forced myself to fight against it, and tried a number of different things. It was Kruschen that eventually sav- ed me and to-day I consider it is saving my life. © My condition has greatly improved, and my limbs are gradually becoming mora supple. Already I can eat without assistance and dress myself--which I had not done for ten years." -- M.H. Two of the ingredients of Krus- chen- salts are the most effectual solvents of uric acid known to medi- cal science. They swiftly dull the sharp edges of the painful crystals, then convert them into a harmless solution.

A black dress is set off by a similar ensemble in white or in a new beige- yose, very soft and becoming. For the evening the only change is that the leather is silver or gold kid. The little flat evening bags which were held under the arm are being replaced by the square or rectangu'tr forms which open widely and are able to contain the innumer- able tiny objects which are indis- pensable to a woman's tortoise-shell and most often one side _ closes down over the other and is decorated by the indispensable mono- gram which must be enormous this season.

How X-ray treatments brought ap- parent recovery to 23-year-old victim was told at the 64th annual conven- tion of the California Medical As- gociation by Drs. R. R. Newell and Edward Leef of Stanford University. Drs. Newell and Leef said surgeons has refused to operate on the woman. When first brought to Stanford Hos- pital in San Francisco suffering from cancer of the brain and spinal cord. X-ray treatments have been given ber over the five-year period, and the hysicians said she was apparently n sound health again.

'Alas for all the lavish paeans to our hero, whether borne on rough foolscap or on stationery rost-tinted and crested! Remarkable artist, craving only rebuke!

Mr, Bernard J. Dubos, of the Meteorological Society of France, is the latest to have a scheme, He would build a steel and concrete fun- nel 2,000 feet high, Through this he would force water vapor into the up- per alr with the thought that it would supported by struts and plilars It area, ° The funnel would be constructed 60 that it would be tapered with the broad end at the top and the whole suppored by sfruts and pillars, It would be about 460 feet in diameter at the top and resemble a large tel- escope standing on 'the smaller end, ~The underlying idea is to have a series of wind vanes at the top which will catch whatever breeze there may be and start a whirl of air inside the spout to create a vacuum, This would give & vacuum core on the principle 'that waterspouts have va. cuum cores. There 1s one detall curbing Mr. Dubos from bullding his core at once, He requires $10,000,000 to go ahead with construction, It will take that much to buy materials afd build the spout. And he is finding it hard to get anyone to gamble the. $10,000, 000 on the chance that the thing might work and produce rain, It would take a lot of bushels of wheat, for instance, to pay the interest and principal on that much money. Perhaps Mr, Dubos will not get anyone to take him up on his ven- ture. But that' will not curb other sclentists and inventors trying to find ome way to get rain from the clouds, And, some day, one of them is quite likely to solve the secret, even though people may laugh at his efforts while he Is experimenting.

Chinch Bugs - Wheat Lands (New York Times) From man's first appearance on this earth there has been war be- tween him and the insects, which were here before him. Milton must have had them in mind as well as the wild beasts when he, in "Para- dise Lost," cried "shame to men" for levying cruel wars "wasting the earth each other to destroy.® As if (which might induce us to accord) Man had not hellish foes enough beside That day and night for his de- struction wait.

This time it is the army of the malodor- ous chinch-bugs that i 8 menacing what it left by drought and dust- sweeping winds. In fact, the drought has been its ally. Hereto- fore chinch-bugs have mot been "troublesome" outside of the Kansas- Oklahoma-Missouri region. But by favor of the hot, dry Summers for two or three years the map of their infestation shows deep black or lighter shadows well toward the Great Lakes and eastward to the Upper Ohio Valley. The United States Department of Agriculture is arming for the cam- paign, but it hgs for the "season's fight" only the price of a 'few hours' barrage by modern artillery." If the defence is to be decisive this year, it is stated by the agri- cultural strategists, a "favoring break" from the weather will be needed. The bugs have Winter-quar- tered, concealed in the wild grasses, but they are now showing their strength as they begin to move into the fields of young wheat, oats and other grains. i But the most ominous. phase is that of the advance of the "young of the new generation," They will feed in swarms and scverely damage the crops. Later on, when the har- vesting of the small grains begins, or if a new drought "makes their food scarce, they will "crawl" (being not yet fully equipped with wings) toward adjacent fields of corn and other forage crops. If they are not headed off by wet weather or by the "trench" warfare planned by the gciefice strategists, the devastation that may be expected is described as follows: Like a living carpet, every stitch of it a ravenous little ap- DEA¥ 7 7?

BEEF, AND GOLD T00, INTHE CARIBOO HILLS SUNS ------ { By Bruce Hutchison in the Vancouver Province If the depression and the general madness of these times have got you down, what you need is a trip to the Cariboo. There isn't any de- pression up there, nor any madness. As this late Spring cpene, with soar- ing beef prices and more gold mines at work, the Cariboo is looking for- ward fo one of the biggest years since the old placer days, But having said that, the Cari- boo will never forgive you if you don't add a warning to city green- horns who think that theve is gold at the grassroots and jobs fer every- body. As usual this year, hundreds of men will go to the Cariboo look- ing for gold and will come back broke in the Autumn, and there will be far more job secckers than jobs. The Cariboo's advice is to stay away unless you have a certain job or n grubstake, but that doesn't alter the fact that it will be a great year up there. Up and down the Cariboo Road, from old Ashcroft to Quesnel, from Green Lake over to the Gang and up on the Chilcotin plateau, the good news has gone forth -- beef prices are climbing. They have waited for that news a good many years now, the big cattle companies, and the sctltiers with half a dozen white-faced steers. |. They have slaughtered their beef far below the cost of producing it. They have driven it all the way in from Alexis Creck and Tatla Lake, from down the road and up to the road FROM Dixie Plug is mellow, Dixie Plug is ripe, You'll love it in your PLUG SMOKING TOBACCO LARGE PLUG 20° Dixie Plug is the world's best bet-- TO "SHEET" pipe! denned up in their cabins and lived on spuds and moose meat, some- times with a few days' work on the roads. Now the tide has turned. Seven- cent beef is arriving. The cattle man is getting five cents for top steers at the railway now and should be getting six and a half cents by June. The housewife may grumble. You may, sce more pot roasts on your table and less prime ribs, but it will be some satisfaction Lo Know that the cattle men are only berin- ning to get back what they fut into the beef, and it wit Take them sev- eral scasons to catch up with losses incurred in the lean years. Back of the new beef prices, of course, is the meat shortage in the United States. In the worst years of American agriculture millions of head of beef cattle were slaughtered because their owners couldn't af- ford to keep them. On top of that, millions more were killed pecause they couldn't be fed in the drought regions of the Middle West. Now the United States needs meat and will need it for sveral years until it can rebuild its herds. v LJ - Gold mining, though it depends on the curious system of taking a metal out of the ground in British Colum- bia and putting it back into the ground in Ottawa, suffers no set- backs from climate or prices. They will take more gold out of Cariboo this year than in any scason since Cariboo. Trail. Bridze River has settled down now, after its first wild excitement, to "the 'steady businesslike camp which minjpg men had expected. It will not thank you for sending your friends there to look for work. They have already fed thousands of poor devils who thought there was a job for everyone on the far side of the Mission Mountain. But now that most of the original wild- cats have disappeared, Bridge River is concentrating on the development of properties that have a real chance to become mines. This season the Cariboo is rather more excited about the region. Last year, after an earlier boom, this area seemed to lose favor with mining men. You heard pes- imistic talk of it everywhere. The people up there began to be wor- ried. Refuge From Lightning People who stand in an open field, a golf course or on a flat beach during a thunder storm ave much more likely to be struck by lightning than people who keep close to certain bushes or clumps of small trees. The preference of lightning for persons standing in the open is not that which is often sugge-ted ---- be- cause persons are taller than their surroundings. The prefernce arises because their bodies are warmer, especially if they have been run- ning to escape the storm, swim- ming rapidly back to a beach or have been exercising violently in A SAFE OINTMENT Soothing Healin, 'Pain-Relieving to Williams Lake and scen it sold under the hammer at two cents for top steere, The big ranches have piled up| debt, hoping for the price to swing upward.
