Sheets Will Wear ) Longer If Given Careful Attention Consumer Information Service gives seven ways to make sheets last longer. 1. Beds should be made properly. Edges smoothed under the mattress get less abrasive wear than bunched- under edges. 2. Sheets should not be yanked off the bed but should be loosened all around the edges first. 3. Mattress pad should be used be- tween sheet and mattress. 4. Sheet should be reversed every other time used, putting bottom to top to distribute wear. 5. Bare springs should be covered with heavy cloth so that when sheets are tucked under the mattress the springs will not cause abrasive action against sheets. } 6. Sheets should be washed as soon as possible after use. Oils and acids present on the skin's surface shorten the life of sheets. 7. Sheets, or pillow cases, should never be used for laundry bags.

Parsley, most versatile as both gar- nish and flavor, is also easiest to grow indoors. As a combined flavor and garnish it adds zest to creamed vegetables, stews, soups, scrambled eggs, veal and butter sauces, and puts an appetizing touch to cold meat plates, fruit and vegetable salads, sandwiches. Chives with their delicate onion flavor improve soups, stews, cheese, salads, egg dishes and sandwiches. Sweet marjoram has many uses. It puts. zip in poultry stuffings, gYravies, or meat pies, and gives an epicurean flavor to peas, beans, spinach, toma- toes, or sprinkled over roast meats. A pot of herbs nicely started makes a welcome gift at any time as do dried herbs from the home garden. The latter, if removed from the stalks should be packaged in glass contain- ers with closely fitting covers so that they will retain the oils which carry the flavor and which evaporate easily. They may be crumbled coarsely or made into herb powder. For the lat- ter pound the dried herbs in a mortar and pass through a sieve until an evenly fine mixture results. Lack of Interest In Family Meals Reflected By Fish When the family begins to show a lack of interest in the richer foods of the holiday season, it's time to serve in condition again, according to Do- minion Department of Fisheries. For a simple and tasty: dish of boiled fish, wipe the fish clean and cut in servings. Season each piece with salt and a few drops of lemon juice or vinegar. (The acid keeps the flesh firm and white). Place the slices together as before cutting and put the fish in dampened parchment (vegetable) paper. The fish will stick together after cooking, but may be easily separated into slices by running a knife between marks of previous Slicing. Tie the paper into a bagand plunge into boiling water. Keep the bag from touching the bottom of the kettle by placing a metal jar ring on the bottom. Boil rapidly for five minutes and then more slowly allowing from 8 to 10 minutes for each pound of fish. Save the juices from the fish which will be inside the paper and make a sauce. A thick white sauce may be made while the fish is boiling and then thinned with the liquor from the fish, hard cooked, chopped or sliced eges added to it, and the egg sauce served with the ffish. The paper should be washed and dried for fu- ture use. ' NOTICE! A lady who had been reliev- ed of Asthma last year by the Psychic Healer, made this remark the other day: "It's wonderful.

I only knew him two months. We were engaged. We have both written often and I have sent parcels often too and he has sent lit- tle presents to me. ' For quite a while I've known I made a mistake. I thought I should go on with it anyway. But now I am really in love with another man. He does not know about my friend over- seas. I simply can't give him up. My friends say I should be ashamed to forget poor J. while he is over there. What do you think about it? Thanking you, BERNA. Ans.: Well Berna, there is nothing to be gained for either by marrying after you have found out that he is not the right man for you. It would be no kindness to the first man. The longer you put off noti- fying him of your decision the worse it will be. Now that you have decided to bres wour er- gagement, pay no attention to your friends' opinion. Perhaps the young man will meet a girl who will take your place in his heart before he returns. We ho e so. Ina St. John. * * * HER DEBT Dear Miss St. John,-- I am going to be married in the 'Spring. The man is well off. I had an operation last summer I still owe a large doctor bill. Do you think I should tell him now or wait until we are married? S. C. Ans.: By all means tell him now, S.C. No doubt it will mean little to him, but it is better to settle such matters before marriage.

STRATFORD CAN ALSO DO A LITTLE BOASTING Many railwaymen have hobbies and in the case of August Hughes, station- ery storekeeper for the Canadian Na- tional Railways in Winnipeg, retiring after forty years' service, it runs to music. Trained as a violinist, Mr. Hughes became a conductor of orch- estras and bands including the Cana- dian National Railways band organiz- ed by workers in the company's Trans- cona shops,.and that of the Canadian Legion. A native of Great Chesterford, Essex, England, Mr. Hughes also brought with him to Canada a keen in- terest in cricket and that forms a sec- ond hobby. And Stratford has among its rail- waymen a talented musician in the person of Mr. C. A. Bird, and believe he is also a cricket enthusiast, and a highly thought of citizen, who was the leader of the C. N. R. Band for years, a A WEALTHY resident of California left all his money to a woman who had refused to marry him. That's real gratitude for you!

"Why aren't you at the front?" she blurted out. "'Cos there's no milk at that end," he answered with a grin. Tt IS reported that when a lad in Lincoln,' Nebraska, stole a kiss from a beautiful girl she had him ar- # rested on a charge of assault and battery. The court changed the charge to indiscretion and dismissed the case. The offender, adamant to the end, claimed that if he had not kissed the pretty young miss, he would have been liable to arrest for criminal negligence. Such is youth!
