"The doctor explained that the present skin ailments are not contagt ous, not reportable, and rarely fatal, and that therefore their prevalence is often unknown until it has attained a great height. "The man who still has a job should stop worryiing about losing it, the doctor said, because he may bring on &n attack of dermatalgia, and the man without a job should stop worrying or he will not only be out of a jqb, but may have an attack of dérmatalgia to boot." "Pruritus is a disorder in which there is intense itching of the skin without any structural changes in the akin itself, Neurodermatitis (inflamâ€" mation of the skin) is indicated when the skin becomes reddened and scaly, and in addition there is marked itchâ€" ing. ""This condition, which is most prevalent today, is called dermatalgia (neuralgia of the skin).

'Beyond the bride and groom the usual 'cordon of pastelâ€"tinted bridesmaids and blackâ€"clad ushers, one or two of these latter inevitably winking in atâ€" tempts to catth the eyo of someone who also looked on marriage as a joke. Well, marriage wasn‘t a joke. | ‘The rector knew that. He listened ‘to the sound of his own voice, and :tound himself faintly surprised, as ho always was, that the words could come forth in all their solemnity and careful intonation, without any particular conâ€" scious guidance. It was habit, naturalâ€" ly. He had married many, many scores of couples. | _ He didn‘t know this groom. That is, 1he had met him only hurriedly. He was young and quiet; more or less penniless, but with a name. A nice ‘chap, rather bewildered by all this pomp. 6 o | COnly occasionally, he reflected with a certain cynicism, only once in a blue lmoou. did he really feel like putting (his heart and soul into the intonation Ior those lovely and solemn old words ‘which so irrevocably linked a woman _and a man till death. was marrying a motherâ€"inâ€"law who could easily have been the original of all the motherâ€"inâ€"law jokes. _ d Well, thought the rector, after all, it was nobody‘s business but the Matâ€" tans‘. If they wanted a title in the family they soon would have it. Very likely the marriage would turn out to be a howling success. On~ never could tell, these days. There in the front pew sat Jennie Mattan, known in certain circles as "The Lioness." She was plump, but she was also, as the rector had learnâ€" ed from experience, an exceedingly firm person. The boy was not marryâ€" ing merely the girl beside him. He The rector, reciting the words of the service, wondered where the Mattans had found this young man, for find him they certainly had. * E\;en now, standin; there stiffly, beads of moisture were oozing out upâ€" on his forchead. Nervous, of course. Well, they usually were. Particularly when they were marrying money. At intervals, of course, there was an obvious lovematchâ€"ah, how well he could tell!lâ€"and then his heart flooded with warmth, and the beauty of the service and its significance seemed to transform themselves into a light within him, and that light, he knew, shone forth. The only question in this hand ls:' Shall the dealer bid one po trump or one heart? The no trump bid seems the better as it gives partner more acâ€", curate information. With this bid,‘ partner will not be deceived but, if Z‘ should bid one heart, there is a very strong chance that the bid will deceive partner and probably result in a big loss. The only, argument in favor of the heart bid is that it 1s a safer bid than no trump because, it Z‘s ace of clubs and spades are taken out of his hand, he may not be able to score one . no trump. Â¥hls is true but seems to | be more than offset by the probable loss resulting from deceit of partner.

It goes to show that there is still very much to learn about Auction and Contract, even by the experts, before they can be certain that their presentâ€"day theories are correct. This very variety of opinion,. however, helps the game and makes it the most irteresting ever played.

"No use," she said. "Ralph has gone." "Gone? You mean Ralph‘s gone?" "He took his hat and coat and he went," said the bride. And then, a little hysterically, she began to laugh. They found the bride in the rector‘s s‘udy. "Come back in here," comâ€" manded her mother from the door. Two of the ushers had closed around the man. The rector turned, swept his arm widely over the congregation, He looked about him, his head lifted sternly. The people, shameâ€"faced, sat down. "This man must be heard," the recâ€" tor announced. Now he turned to the man. "If you have anything to say, say it." The man glowered. "I‘ve said all I have to say, he replied with a certain dignity. Jennie Mattan, the Lioness, was facâ€" ing him with her hands on her hips. Her jaw projected forward and her eyes were narrowed. The man smiled knowingly. He shook his head. "I‘ll tell my reason when and as I choose." Someone whispered; "He‘s a blackâ€" mailer." ~ "Throw him out," grunted a man, and the word was taken up: "Throw him out." The ushers looked at the rector. The rector looked at the man, looked at the assemblage, and then inâ€" clined his head. "That‘s that,‘ ‘said the Lioness, with vehemence. "Now everybody sit down,. The rector paced back up the aisle. The wedding will go on," said the Lioness, definitely. People were standing up now. Woâ€" men‘s hats blocked any view of the intruder except for those nearest him. The ushers started bodily down the aisle, their jaws set grimly, The rector, completely astounded, raised his hand,. Never before in his experience or in the experience of any of his confrieres had a thing like this happened. Why, it was unbelievable! It was horrible. ‘You‘ll tell : now," she said. The man stood there stifly. His fingers twitched. He gulped. "I believe I can show just cause," he stated. He strode down the aisle. People gave way before his robes. There aro three possibilities in this hand. Z may bid one spade, one heart or pass. The write. is of the opinion that one spade is the best call. The hand is too strong to pass and the spade bid is preferable to the heart bid as the former suit is much the stronger and the one that should be the trump. CONTRACT BIDDING: At Contract there are two choices, either a three spade bid or a pass. The latter seems preferable. "This won‘t do," said the erctor, deâ€" fiantly, peace." A faint stir moved the church, as it always did. Then there fell silence. One of the ushers, winking broadly, coughed in a burlesque attempt at rude significance. Someone back ‘n the pews giggled. It was then that a man rose to his feet about halfway back in the church, He stood there nomentarily, holding up his hands nervously. He was a middleâ€"aged man, neatly dressed. "Just a minute," he said. The rector‘s jaw dropped open. Heads turned abriptly, with much rustling of silk and a sudden hissing of whispered and startled queries. In Contract, where game must be contracted for, it is always better to bid the suit, rather than no trump, in doubtful hands. One heart is, thereâ€" fore, the proper bid. CONTRACT BIDDING: Hand No. 2 your reason here and Giving an instance, he cited the probable conversation that would enâ€" sue should one visit a dentist in any Japanese city,. Entering the dentist‘s office, one makes known his requireâ€" ments. "On the contrary," replies the paâ€" tient, "I have heard much of your skill. Won‘t you please practice it upon me?" "Oh, but why do you come to me? I am a very poor dentist, probably the worst in the city," he will protest. A professor was spending Christâ€" mas in an hotel. At dinner he found hin:self seated next to a maiden lady of uncertain age. "I should love to aave a coin dated the year of my birth," she remarked. "Do you think you could get one for me?" "I can‘t promise," replied the other innocently. "You see, these old coins are only to be found in rare collecâ€" That the Japaneso people are exâ€" tremely polite is a well known fact, but according to a New Yorker who returned recently from a visit to that country, the extent of the politeness is difficult for the average subway traveler of New York to conceive. Eventually she discovered the proâ€" fessor was a collector of old coins. To Ralph, on his wedding day, from his Motherâ€"inâ€"Law." _ Scrawled across the lower rightâ€"hand corner was an admonition, a single short senâ€" tence in the form of a command: "Use this $2000 for something that will make you and my daughter happy."â€" Titâ€"Bits, "You certainly had $2,000," the actor said, ironically. "Yes, I had just that." After the man had gone the groom began to smile again, as if reminis cently. From his waistcoat pocket he drew a card, and he read on it with evident satisfaction:â€" "I‘m glad she had the nerve," comâ€" mented the groom, nodding approbaâ€" tion. "You see, she never had the nerve to oppose her mother. Much too much mother. Miss Mattan never told me, of coursé, but Snafford did. Great chap, Snafford. I liked him, He was waiting there outside the church, "Well, I‘mâ€"â€"" said the actor. The groom smiled again. "The only way to beat a woman like that is when she gives you an opening. I had no money, you knowâ€"not a cent." "It‘s in here," he said, with drama. "Miss Mattan eloped immediately afâ€" ter the ceremony with a man named Snafford, their family chauffeur, How does that hit you?" â€"that I was an actor, paid to speak my lines, and that you‘d found me only three or four hours before the cereâ€" mony. Frankly, I didn‘t like it." "I don‘t blame you," said the groom. Now the visitor smiled toothily. "She put it over on you at that," he announced. He patted a newspaper that protruded from his coat pocket. "Yes, and although she changes it often, it never seems to leave her possession." "Your wife seems to have a mind of her own."

DISTRIBUTORS Antique It is a usual thing to hear at these Ottawa stations the voice of code signals of men seated thousands of miles distant in the cold Arctic. The signals come rolling in with reports and requests for medical advice, In the not so distant Northland, but still isolated sections of northern Ontario, there also are radio stations operated by the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests, Even these have their requests for medical aid. These words were used by the great i president of Amgrica, Abraham Linâ€"| coln, a man who started life as a poor ; boy in the backwoods of Kentucky j and until he was 21 labored under; every possible disadvantage, Yet he lived to become President of the: United States, and a man whose fame , has increased with the passing of the years. Both Waves Used. Short and long wave phone and | telegraph â€" radio transmitters â€" are j housed at several points in Ottawa‘ for contact with the north. There is‘ one station operated by the Departâ€" ment of Marine which keeps in touch with the entire Arctic. Another operated by the Department of Naâ€": tional Defence, hbas its stations strung _ throughout the Western Arctic. One of the‘strangest was that for a big Indian brave who had gone inâ€" sane through the attacks of black fileg, He was brought to one of the fur posts in the northern part of Ontario, and there the agent advised medical attention. The nearest doctor being hundreds of miles distant, the small short wave radio transmitter went into action with the result that a plane came to take the Indian to civilization the next day. AMBITION "Every man is said to have his peculiar ambition. Whether it be true or not, I can say for one, that I have no other so great as that of being truiy esteemed ‘by my fellowmen, by renâ€" dering myself worthy of their estecm." Here a constant watch is kept for just such emergency calls. Within a few minutes a doctor had been sumâ€" moned and made acquainted with the case. While the thermometer stood at 30 below zero at that isolated staâ€" tion on the Hudson Straits, an opera tion was performed by a doctor who was noarly two thousand miles disâ€" tant! When he reached the radio station after hours of painracked travel he was in a bad fix. He was too far gone for the unaided treatment of the operators there, and they immeâ€" diatel_y called Ottawa. A trapper had been wounded by one of his traps. He lived in a lonely cabin 50 miles from the radio station. It was his nearest point of contact. Wounded though he was, he harnessed his dogs and set out in the biting cold and wind of subâ€"zero weather for the radio station where he might obtain aid. He feared that blood poisoning might set in, One of the first such cases to be treated was through the radio at Cape Hope‘s Advance, on the south shore of Hudson Straits. ‘What the Radio Means in the Arctic Influenza epidemics have broken out during recent years among the Eskiâ€" mos and Indians at various points in the Arctic. With radio an estabâ€" lished necessity in the northland, it has been possible for the Canadian Government to warn and give instrucâ€" tions to other communities in the Arctic through broadcasting stations and the powerful transmitters at Otâ€" tawa maintained for direct communiâ€" cation with the Arctic.

Accidents happen frequently in the north, and while all police officers, as well as most traders, trappers and missionaries, have some elementary first ald knowledge, it is now possible to treat dangerous accidents with the expert guidance of skilled doctors by means of the radio. _ Radio has become such a boon .to the northland that there is hardly a community, fur trader, police post or other settlement which has not a reâ€" ceiver in good working order.

In that picturesque spot, on the shore of the St. Lawrence, the deseendants of the original powerâ€" ful Huron tribe still ply their various trades. They make snowshoes and bows and arrows, weave baskets and fashion purses and other feminine acâ€" couterments from beaded buckskin, just as their forefathers did. Visitors to Quebec always muke it a polat to visit this Indian settlement. As in most Continental European cities, there is a big surplus of women over men.
