#o¢ tX 8 } 3 The junk dealers will buy anyâ€" thing, no matter how valueless it may seem. Tattered clothes, brokâ€" en bottles, rusty nails, wooder crates, strips of mattingâ€"anything at allâ€"will be found in the shops of these dealors. They do not lack customers, either, for the Chinese have a vse for everything. Four warehouses are required to store the gifts of knitted garâ€" ments, etc., sent to the troops in Britain, by the women of Also of great value are the disâ€" carded inner tubes from car tyres. Perhaps the most popular use is to slit up the tube, then shape and stitch the rubber to make sandals for the whole family. Empty tins are not allowed to go to waste, for the thrifty Chinâ€" ese find them very useful. The larger tins make handy and inâ€" expensive cooking pots, cil drums« are used as water containers, while other tins are flattened out and used as patches to make roofs weatherproof, The Chinese allow nothing to be wasted, no matter how useless it may at first appear. No scrap of paper thrown away by a careless foreigner is allowed to lie long in the street before being spotted by an eagleeyed coolie, who will joyâ€" fully take possession. A newspaper is regarded as a rich prize, which can be put to many uses. During the chilly nights of the rainy seaâ€" son, for instance, a few newspapers serve the coolie and his family as blankets. Chinese Never Waste Anything With but sixty days left in the year, Toronto police figures showed they are the most treacherous â€" 1940 stands to break all existing records in the number of traffic fatalities. The year 1938 now holds the record _ with â€" seventyâ€"seven deaths. Wet pavements, covered with leaves and ice, are othor factors contributing to the death list. "The general combination of these facâ€" tors coupled with bad driving on the part of motorists and foolish walking on the part of pedestrians cause most accidents," he said. There were several reasons for the increase he said, but the most evident seemed to be shorter dayâ€" light hours. "From now on," he exâ€" plained, ‘the afternoon rtsh hour traffic takes place at dusk." Most accidents occur just at dusk Mr. Robertson added. "It is a well recognized fact that from now until the turn of the year accident records show that acâ€" cidents greatly increase on roads and streets during the coming perâ€" lod." Mr. Roebertson emphasized. WET PAVEMENTS AND LEAVES A call for double care by both motorists and pedestrians was isâ€" sued last week by W. Gilbert Robâ€" ertson,. general manager of the Onâ€" tario Motor League, with the apâ€" proach of the most treacherous part of the year. ® Danger Season For Motorists Not Even A Scrap of Paperâ€" They Make Sandals Out of Old Automobile Tires Drivers, Pedestriars Warned To Use Caution â€" Shorter Daylight. Hours Partly Reâ€" sponsible for Higher Death Toll on Roads Swing It! FEATHERS! â€" "The remedy is fairly simple for those who do not care to particiâ€" pate in or give encouragement to the illegal traffic," Mr. Pough said. "There aro legal feathers, and any purchaser of bird plummage has a right to dezuand that she be given positive assurance that the feathâ€" ers on her hat are within the law." North American bird life faces its worst threat in the last three decades because of renewed exâ€" tensive use of bird feathers on women‘s hats, according to Richard H. Pough of the National Audubon Society, New York. Feathers of more than 40 species of wild birds are being Mlegally offered for sale, Mr. Pough charges, following a survey of millinery shops in New York. A s Feathers On Hats Menace Bird Life 1.

INFLUENZA CONTROL A discovery by three Australâ€" ian researchers that the human nose secretes a substance which will make certain disease viruses harmless may open the way to efâ€" fective medical control of influâ€" enza. The three scientists found that a chemically purified secreâ€" tion of the normal human nose inactivated every kind of influâ€" enca obtainable there for testâ€" ing.

But although in geoâ€" logical time they are moving swiftly, the actual rate is only a few feet each year. All the time, the world is undergoing change. The Thames was an underground river 10,000 years ago, for a forâ€" mer bed has been discovered sixâ€" ty feet below the present one. So a million years hence inhabiâ€" tants of this planet will not be able to recognize their territory by looking at maps of toâ€"day. Everything will be different, for a river like the Mississippi shifts enough sediment into the Gulf of Mexico each year to cover the cities of Manchester and Liverâ€" pool in a threeâ€"foot layer. That the Alps are moving rapâ€" idly to the north along a 300â€" mile front, causing the plains in front to sink into the earth under their irrestible weight, is the opinion of an eminent scientist.

When Sir George Reid, a man prominent in Australian politics, was. made knight commander of St. Michael and St. George, he was rather embarrassed by his new dignity, for he liked to be referred to as plain George Reid.

HEED THIS Abvice 1J f Thousands of women smmngthru' Eimes® with pyam aif If the solution appears to be too strong, that is if it "bites" the tongue or throat, water may be added. When ready, the soâ€" lution is used as a gargle and mouthwash several times a day. In every mouth left undisturb, ed for some hoursâ€"for example during sleep â€" a varying amount of white substance grows on the tongue and other mouth surfaces and~ accumulates around the teeth. This consists of a threadâ€" like plant called leptothrix, in the meshes of which may be numerâ€" ous germs and cells. This plant, if not removed, will grow raâ€" pidly and form a hard tartar on the teeth which can be removed only by a dentist‘s sharp instruâ€" ment. Such removal is necessary, ‘otherwise the teeth and gums will suffer. Many persons are continually troubled with a raw sore throat, aggravated in some cases by smoking particularly if cigarettes are used; in these individuals a systematic use of a saturated soâ€" lution of thymol in water as a mouthwash and gargle, is a most effectual preventive. HOW TO PREPARE IT The solution is prepared as folâ€" lows: the crystals of thymol, placed in a muslin bag, are put into a wideâ€"mouthed bottle and cold water added. Soon there will be a saturated solution of the drug. From time to time more cold water is added until all the crystals have disappeared. Then more crystals are added. Thymol is inexpensive. An ounce, costing no more than a few cents, will make nine gallons of soluâ€" tion. People otherwise meticulously clean in their habits habitually neglect their teeth; the brush, used in a perfunctory rub, is alâ€" lowed to become filthy and posâ€" sibly does more harm than good.
