The teacher, 0 graduate of MacDonald Hall, Guelph, received us cordialiy and we took a back seat to hear the talk on cook- ing and, incidentally, to learn if our better half was going according to cooking rules in the various dishes prepared for our sustenance.

An attack on the extravagance of funerals was voiced by Judge Ross from the bench of the Elgin’ county court at St. Thomas recently, when t became his duty to adjudicate a suit brought by an undertaker a- gainst the executor of an estate. The cost of the funeral in «question was placed at hy al but the judge only awarded $30 “I may say” he remarked in giv- ‘Ing judgment, “that in my opinion funeral expenses to-day are out of proportion to what they rightly should be. People of wealth and oth- ers with not so much wealth would be doing a patriotic duty in this re- gard if they would insist on more modest and less extravagant funer- als.

They want the law made so drastic that a penalty of over $1,000 could be imposed for selling a pair shoes. If the law is made as severe as they ask, selling bankrupt stocks & will be next to impossible.

Then we pricked up our ears and were all attention, and when we asked Miss Robertson’ to explain what is meant — ae term ‘Vita mines’’ she was to the occas- ion and said that’ while it is a dif- ficult matter to define the term, it is better known by its beneficial re- sults, that it is to be abundattly found in oranges, grape-fruit, butter milk, and green vegetables and with- out it there can be neither growth nor good health. When we came back to the office: we looked in the Concise Imperial dictionary for a definition of the mystery word. Then we phon- ed over to our home for our better half to look sp “‘Vitamines” in the big Standard volume, but it wasn’t there either, but a manual on cook- ing described it as the life-giving principle in food. If Captain Cook and other navigators who sailed the salt seas over a century ago had -known the merits of vitamines they would not have lost so many of their sailors with scurvy wh science shows could have been both prevented and cured by lime or lem- on juice. Miss Robertson’s lectures are quite instructive and. we hope more women and girls in this com- munity will take advantage of the free course.

The Same Old Cure More than 20 years ago I was call- ed to look after a young woman who was having a “spell” of some kind. She was lying on the floor groan- ing, holding her hand over her stom- ach, then over the region of appen- dix, and again grasping her with both hands. She said she was unable to get up. Her pulse seemed regular although a little rapid, her tongue looked normal, and I was at a loss as to whether it was append- im or some other serious condi- t I called up a well known profes- sor of medicine, and after some per- suasion on my part, he came to the house. After a short examination, said: ‘Get her upstairs to’ bed.” ae she is unable to walk,” I he “Oh she's all right, there's noth- ing wrong with, her. She'll walk up- stairs all wi ght. _ There's” no need to carry her And sure rr oe she got up, went to bed for hours, and didn’t complain rani for some weeks. Aside to me, the professor stated, that if she had not got up and walk. ed he would have used more vigor- ous messures. During the war there were exag- eerated casés of the above, some cal- ied shell shock; og nerve shock, functional pa end so forth.
