Specific Cure for T. B. May Be ‘Around Corner’

A specific chemical cure for tuber- culosis may be “around the corner,” as the result of notable scientific ad- vances listed by Dr. Kendall Emer- son, famous tuberculosis authority, in a special interview.

Dr. Emerson is the managing di- rector of the National Tuberculosis association which has made total endowment of $40,000 this year to distinguished scientists for research in the cause and cure of tubercu- losis.

x Among the scientists co-operating with him are Drs. F. M. Feldman, H. C. Hinshaw and their colleagues at the famous Mayo Clinic, Roch- ester, Minn., who have made the most important discovery from the viewpoint of a chemical cure for tu- berculosis.

These doctors have used the new- ly prepared drug promin in at- tempts to destroy the germs of tu- berculosis. Last October they an- nounced that promin saved guinea pigs infected with the germs which produce tuberculosis in human be- ings. All animals not treated with the drug died.

Now, according to “unpublished reports,” available to Dr. Emerson, the treatment appears to be effec- tive even in uman beings.

In a number of cases of “pleur- isy,” that is pain in the chest and otiier symptoms that go with it, caused by tuberculosis infection, the administration of promin gave sur- prisingly good results.

Prefer Blond Hereford Steers for Fattening

It’s really true that blond Here- ford steers gain weight faster than brunettes. They do still better if they’re also short-headed and have reasonably small bones.

It has worked out that way in seven years of feed-lot testing .at the University of Arizona’s experi- mental farm. E. B. Stanley,-animal husbandman in charge, thought it was a mere coincidence when the first two or three times that light- red steers took on flesh just a trifle more rapidly than those that were dark or medium red.

When it had happened five times straight he mentioned the color fac- tor for the first time in his test re- ports. Now, after feeven years, he says that pigmentation undoubtedly has something to do with a Here- ford’s ability to turn feed into beef.

Stanley just can’t explain it. He has read every book that might throw some light on the mystery, but npt a clue has turned up.

Every year careful note has been made of the physical characteris- tics of the 120 steers on test. Now Stanley and his helper can look at an animal and tell how it is going to perform in the feed lot. If it has a fairly long head, it will gain more slowly than one with a short head. The rawboned type shows less “ef- ficiency of gain” than those with less prominent skeletal structure.

Light But Strong The Antarctic, skua only weighs

about V-k pounds, yet its strength is so great that its two-inch bill can carry chunks of meat larger than itself over great distances. It has been seen 300 miles inland, where it spends the winter and returns to the coast of the Antarctic about the middle of October. The arrival is timed with clock-like precision with the egg-laying of penguins for the principal food of skuas is penguin eggs and chicks which are devoured by the hundreds. Unable to match the superior size and fighting strength of adult penguins, the skuas use clever strategy in separat- ing the parent birds from' Iheir chicks and then slaughtering them wholesale. Scores of half eaten and trampled bodies of baby pen- guins have been found near penguin colonies.

The discovery, significant from the viewpoint of national nutrition, has been made by two University of Wisconsin chemists, Drs. Aaron J. Ihde and Henry A. Schuette

For the first time the amounts of vitamin of B-complex were meas- ured in various “milled products of the rye grain.”

It was found that rye flour sur- passes white wheat flour in vitamin contents.

Particular attention was paid to these vitamins: B-l, riboflavin, nic- otinic acid and pantothenic acid.

Buying ‘Case’ Goods In considering the purchase of

case goods (dressers, chests, side- boards, bookcases, desks, etc.) ta- bles and chairs, if possible test the weight. The greater the density of the wood, the better. For example, you can buy a chest of thin, soft, porous wood that weighs 40 pounds; you can buy a good hardwood chest in ^the same size and it will weigh around 75 pounds. How the wood is dried makes a difference, too. Always ask the salesman if it is kiln dried. This is wood that has been air dried, (hen actually dried in an oven so that the moisture content has been reduced to 5 per cent. Wood not so dried is likely to warp, and in warping will split, throw dpawnriB out. of. line, come unglued âiid give floor service in general.

Waste And Frills Out Of Fashion

Waste and frills are out of fashion! The ruffles you omit from your next pair of curtains will help spread the available supply of cotton which will become grow- ingly scarce because of the increased demand for war purposes, as well as shrotage of labor and materials for manufacture.

Those who make their own curtains and slip covers can contribute to the war effort by sticking to the simplest styles, straight-hanging tailored cur- tains that stop at the window/ sill, and slip covers without a pleated apron.

Considerable care of household fa- brics is Just as important as careful buying. Buy washable fabrics whenever possible. Dirt Is the enemy of fabric life. Wash or clean curtains and slip covers before they get so dirty that harsh cleaning methods must be used.

with the rest of the world, the sturdy overalled girl who works in a factory and the crispy efficient girl behind a typewriter, they think that com- pletely discarding the 'ideas of their mother is a mistake. Women of the older generation, they believe, would probably haye been horrified at the idea of leaving the quiet security of their homes to work shoulder to shoul der with men, but they did realize the importance of making the most of their distinctly feminine personalities, and the impressions they created were certainly abetted by a charming hat. j \The stylists beleive that with the greatly diversified modes to be ob- tained in hats every women should be able to find one that not only suits her but materially contributes to her attractiveness. So, they say, forget about the office after hours and take a lesson in charm by really dressing for an occasion and not forgetting the hat.

Designers Advise Summer Headgear

To be completely wen dressed, sum- mer and winter, every woman should wear a hat. So say stylists who be-' moan the fact that women seem toj overlook the possibilities of enhancing their appearance with smart headgear >

Manufacturers look with alarm at the endency to go hatless, especially during the summer months. In the|

fall and winter; they say, greater for-, mality in dress and the return of cold j weather demand a hat but summer- time seems to encourage carelessness that leaves the hair streaming and unrestrained. Not only does this lessen one's appearance of neatness and chic but it allows the sun to dry natural oils out of the hair. The stylists have a sound argument on their side when

they say that the dried brittle hair that appears in October is a direct re- sult of thoughtlessness in June.

One designer, who remembers the picture of complete beauty made by her mother when she was ready to go visit tag, attributes the greater prettiness and impression of womanly dignity to the fact that the older generation were never without hats to set off their clothes and frame their faces. “Rem- ember the lovely Gainsborough and Romney,ladies?’’ she asked. “Do you think those pictures would be as strik- ing if the models were painted with- out those hats to accentuate their hair and faces.” In her opinion, hat- lessness is more than a momentary fad, it seems to be the forerunner of a general trend, toward carelessness and loss of femininity.

Many dseigners and manufacturers agree with her. Although they admire

Cotton Multiplies Eleven Times

Montreal, * July 6th—The extent to which some large business firms in Canada have thrown thqmselves into the war effort is indicated by compara- tive figures released here today by Dominion Textile Company Limited. |

The information shows that the cotton textile industry of Canada is already 11 times ahead of its 1914- 1918 war production records. Many of the mills are running almost 100 per cent on the manufacture of direct war materials or essentials production which has an indirect bearing on the war. This fact is all the more In-1

spiring v/hen it is considered that the cotton industry, even in wartime, must maintain a certain percentage of its civilian production to clothe the na- tion and provide, specific textile ne-' cessities of life.

At present it is estimated that 2U

million yards of direct war products and other essential materials are '

i turned out by the industry in a year’s time. Among these items are anti- gas cloth, aircraft fabric, camouflage cloth and netting, tire fabrics for prmy equipment, gun covers, para-1 chute strapping yarn, webbing for rifle and machine gun slings, water-1 proof materials for the navy and merchant marine, bandage cloth and scores of other products including, of course, uniform cloth and linings.

Two other figures are of particular interest. The company reports that its plant employees now earn 28 per cent more per hour than at the out-' break of war, and that it pays 434 per cent more to the government in taxes than its several thousand share-' holders receive in dividends.

Draws Large Salary Just For Showing Her Hands

Three years ago a beautiful black- haired young lady was sitting at a manicurist’s table. The tali man stopped beside her on his'way out.

“Young lady, do you know you have the most beautiful hands I have ever seen? What’s your name?”

She said: “Florence Pearsall.” “Well, Miss Pearsall, I’d like to

pay you for a picture of- your hands.”

That was the beginning of the career of Florence Pearsall’s hands. The mari was a nail-polish-company executive who had been searching vainly for a pair of beautiful hands to use in an advertisement. Today, ihey earh between $300 and $400 every week for her just by letting photographers take pictures of them.

They are so valuable that they’re insured for $40,000. The policy stern- ly forbids Florence to dial a phone, play golf or tennis, or do anything else which could possibly damage her precious manual extremities.

Florence’s' business overhead is high. Expenses include the cost of 35 pairs of gloves and a private manicurist, paid $50 a week. She wears gloves all the time. Even vhen she cooks. The manicurist "arries a kit with 25 different nail- polish shades, changes the color of her employer’s nails fivé and six urnes a day. She keeps her hands m perfect condition by exercise, too. She’s gained such perfect control ver the movement of each finger hat she’s now able to balance an

egg on one fingertip. On occasion she has been the

nands of Joan Crawford, Claudette Colbert, Merle Oberon, Barbara Stanwyck. For advertisements showing them holding something, ;he clever photographers used the face and bodies of the movie gals but pasted Florence’s hands onto the pictures.

Just the other day, she turned down a Hollywood offer of $20,000 d year to use her hands in close-ups. She’d rather wait until they want her face, too.

DOWN FOR THE COUNT

New Twist to Earning A Living in Hollywood

Bhogwan Singh has been making a good living in Hollywood for 27 .ears simply by knowing how to wist a cloth approximately 100 dif-

ferent ways. Maybe this sounds on the silly

side, but to Hollywood it’s a serious matter and Bhogwan is a very im- portant person, because by follow- ng his advice the film-makers pre- ent riots in Asia. The reason for

ihis is that the cloth in question ’echnically becomes a turban when 'roperly wrapped, and Singh is Hol- lywood’s official turban-wrapper.

Turban-wrapping assumed impor- ance in filmland some years ago, ..hen directors discovered there vere dozens of ways to wrap a tur-

ban and that every little wrapping has a meaning of its own. Each little twist denotes a specific caste, and if a Brahmin twist is accident- ally placed on the head of a Hindu, the customers tear up the theater seats in righteous—and riotous—in- iignation in India, the Malay states, and sundry other Oriental countries where they take their turbans seri- ausly.

A medical, yarn, probably apo- crphyal, tells about a group of loafers In, the far East whose slothfulness was such that they didn’t even trou- ble to wash their rice. Across the way a group of highly refined women liv- ed in daily disapproval of the neigh- bours who weren’t fussy about their food. These women ate nothing but the most highly polished rice. Un- happily, all the women came down with beri-beri while .the loafers grew- fatter and fatter. This led an in- j quirtag scientist to the discovery^ that essential vitamins are carried in the outer shells of grain and cereals.

In the western world the problem has been somewhat the same. Now-1

finement. Because of impending shortages in other foods, Hon. J. G. Taggart, food administrator under the War Time Prices and Trade Board, has urged Canadians to eat more bread. If we are to do so we should make sure it is brpad rich in vitamins. Such is real whole wheat bread.

‘Fall Giiys’ Americans are the greatest “fall

guys” on earth. Last year 25,000 of them died from falls—16,000 in their own homes—while two million “luckier” ones were either perma- nently disabled or merely painfully and expensively injured. And if you don’t think a careless stumble can run into real money, bear in mind that it cost each of those 2,000,000 victims an average of $117 for not oeing able to keep his feet! Just now expensive a simple fall can be was indicated by a recent National Safety Council study of 4,602 home accident cases that were treatéd in Cook County hospital, Illinois. Two- ihirds of those patients went to the hospital - as a result of ■ falls. And each of those fall cases averaged 13 days in the hospital, plus 54 days’ disability at home—with attendant loss of wages.

Tips for Gardener If you are a beginner gardener,

here are some do’s and don’ts that will simplify your work and pay div- idends in flowers and fruit and fo- liage.

As a starter select a few essentia] tools, with others to be added from ume to time as their need is shown jr your purse permits. Essentials are a spade with a square edge for digging, a long-handled shovel for moving earth about, a garden rake, a bamboo one for leaves, a hoe and a trowel, and at least 50 feet of gar- den hose.

All tools, after being used, should be cleaned and rubbed with a dry .doth before being put in the tool bed. This will prolong their useful- ipss and they will give better serv- •e if kept clean.

Smokies Outdo Europe In Wide Tree Variety

Primeval forests and highly va- ried wildflowers hold the center of interest for most visitors to the Great Smoky Mountains National park- in Tennessee. *

The forests are interesting be- cause of the great variety of trees and the unusually large tracts that remain in their undisturbed prime- val condition. Half of the 436,000 acres in the park still have their original virgin forest cover. Most of that is composed of mixed South- ern hardwoods, but the higher peaks and ridges in the northeastern half of the park are covered with virgin stands of red spruce and balsam, the trees of the North woods. Na- tional Park Service bulletins say ! the Great Smokies contain the na- ' tion’s largest and finest virgin hard- wood forest and the largest virgin forest of red spruce.

The great variety of trees was first pointed out by Dr. H. M. Jen- nison, professor of botany at the University of Tennessee, who listed 147 species in the. park, as con- trasted with only 85 in continental Europe. Several of the Western na- tional parks have less than 20 kinds of trees. »

Some of the park trees often reach from five to seven feet in diameter. Altholigh this is small in compari- son with the Western redwoods and sequoias, it is large for the species growing in the East. Largest trees in these mountains are the tulips or yellow poplars. Hemlocks, buck- eyes, maples, basswood, oaks and cherry follow closely in order.

The best place to see the big trees of the Smokies is along the beckoning trails. The Ramsey Falls trail is especially good. It passes within a few feet of exceptionally large tulip trees and winds through the best “grove” of giant cherry trees in the park.

The Porters Flats trail exhibits huge tulip trees, as does the new trail from Cades Cove to Gregory Bald.

‘Perfect’ Crystals Are Needed by U. S. Army

Dr. Frederick J. Bates, dis- tinguished scientist, who is the chief of the optics division of the National Bureau of Standards in Washington, D. C., has revealed to the Optical Society of Amer,ica how silently but vigorously .a search is ijeing made for “perfect crystals.”

Small regular pieces of crystals are used in devices for radio com- munication between military tank^. A mass attack by tanks is possible only through such instruments which “synchronize,” that is harmonize, the time factors of the tanks rush- ing against the enemy lines.

In submarine detecting devices, also, the crystals play a most im- portant part. Dr. Bates broadly pointed out other war uses for the crystals.

But “perfect crystals” are needed for such purposes, and they are most difficult to find.

America’s scientific sleuths are hunting for flawless crystals through- out this country, Latin-American countries and even in Asia and Af-

Shiras Was First George Shiras III, a trustee of the

'iational Geographic society, made he first flashlight pictures of wild -.nimals in their natural habitats. His amous “Midnight Series,” estab-

..shed the beauty and accuracy of mnera and flashlight in big-game holography, and won highest

awards at home and abroad.

Vitamin Age Maybe instead of the Gasoline age

or the Aviation age or the Machine age historians of the future will call this the Vitamin age, the age in which the world discovered how to rebuild or renovate human bodies by the proper use of foods or extracts of foods. And out of this war may come blessings for the bodily hap- piness 1 of future generations. At least, it has been discovered that whole populations, or large seg- ments of populations, which are suf- fering great food lacks can be kept somewhere near physical fitness by the use of vitamin candies or pel- lets which can be transported easily and which, by the spoonful or .the pellet, contain as much of certain essential vitamins as could be got- ten from eating a pound of this or that.

Best for Polishing In polishing fine furniture, a soft,

clean, dry cloth, one that does not shed lint, is necessary. Worn linen pillowcases or old dinner napkins make excellent rubbing cloths. Where there is soil or a stain, many women go to work with mild soap and water. This treatment, while sometimes harmless, may work great damage by removing the fine old finish already on the furniture.

For the soft sheen that is so de- sirable, oil or wax may be used. Both are recommended, although the waxing treatment is said to last longer. But not all furniture should be treated with either. Painted fur- niture, for instance, or furniture of pickled pine, needs only that same soft, dry cloth. A good rubbing brings out the finish.

Testing Blanket A good .way to test a blanket is

to take a tiny piece of the nap be- tween the fingers and suspend the entire weight from it. Inferior fibers will break; first-grade wool nap can easily support more than the blan- ket’s entire weight. Another test is to hold the blanket up to the light to see if there are thin spots caused by overnapping. A third test is to bunch the wool in your hand and squeeze it. If it has “bounce” and spring, feels warm and lively, it is first quality. If it feels harsh, un- yielding, lifeless, it is second grade or even poorer quality.

Raphaels, made possible the holding of the first Lay Retreat for Catholic Women of this Diocese in 1935.

That the retreat movement has been a success is evidenced by the fact that èaeh year some twenty-six to thirty Catholic women and girls take advantage of this great spiritual en- deavour.

O-n Thursday evening, July 2 the retreatants gathered at lema Academy which has so generously opened its doors to us in the past. A kindly wel- come was extended to each/ and all by Rev. Mother Patricia. The opening exercises took place in the beautiful Convent Chapel with Rev. G. N. Dow- se tt, O.M.I. of St. Patrick’s College, Ottawa as Retreat Master. The Rev. Father gave an outline of the exer- cises of the three days of the Retreat then followed . Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament.

Each day the Retreat Master dealt with the fundamlental teachiiigs of Christ, Faith, Charity, Prayer, Sin and Death During the conference on Sin it was shown that when’ man tries to substitute his own laws for the laws of God he adds to the confusion of the world instead of creating peace and harmony. He cited as an example Divorce which proves itself a menace to the life and happiness of all. As the keynote of the Retreat the Rev Father stressed the choice which each in- dividual must make between his will and the will of God. In speaking of Death he showed that on first thought it may seem cruel that God leaves the time of death uncertain but in reality this uncertainty should keep us all prepared, hence, ‘ ‘ Watch ye and pray for our soldiers on duty.”

He strongly advised the daily reading and studying of portions of the New Testament that we may pattern our lives from that of our Divine Saviour

In dwelling on the love of our Lord for His mother, he sboke of the suf- i fering she underwent -and as He made :

His own mother stand by the Cross so ,! does He draw every mother whom He i loves to the Cross. j

The retreatants came from Cornwall i Alexandria, Glen Nevis, Lochiel, North | Lancaster, Dalhousie, Apple Hill, St. j Andrews and St. Raphaels.

The closing exercises took place Sun- day afternoon and one could not but feel sorry that it was finished as there is something about the atmosphere of a Closed Retreat that brings peace of mind and happiness Following Bene- diction of the Blessed Sacrament the Convent Choir rendered a beautiful hymn to the Blessed Virgin asking her to beseech her Divine Son to protect the sons of our mothers who are giv- ing all that we may live.

We owe a debt of gratitude to Rev. Mother Patricia and the other Sisters of thé Holy Cross, who spared neither time nor energy to make everything most pleasant for us.

Go all out on the salvage of Jute hags! There Isn’t a scrap of jute be- ing imported into Canada now, and a situation already had will be worse unless every effort is put forward to salvage and conserve the supply of bags available In this country, reports the National Salvage Committee.

The farmer should return empties to ,hes fee^dealer or sell them to a second band bag, dealer who will^ repair them and sell them to the mills. A very real] shortage may occur unless bags are kept mqving from the emptier to the1

filler.” All bags are needed. There are large numbers of bags in urban as well as rural homes which should be put back into circulation.

implement to reduce tire wear and secure best draft results. A low hitch on the tractor may cause excessive wear on the .drive wheels and and am extra load on the, implement tires, wheels, and bearings Side draft will cause uneven wear on tractor arid Implement tires.

9. Remove tires from implements which must stand outdoors for most of the year when not in actual use, and store in dry, cool, darkened shed. Reduce the air pressure a few pounds in all tires which are in storage.

10. A good coat of recommended rubber tire paint, or, preservative will protect all tires, outside or in stor- age, against the deteriorating effects of weather and aging.

Do everything possible to save what you have now. Repair breaks or dam- age as soon as possible and never throw away any rubber, even when completely worn out, it is now too valuable to be wasted.

Ottawa Exhibition Is Cancelled

There will be no Ottawa exhibition this year and probably none until the war has ended, it was announced late last week by the Department of Na- tional Defence.

Cancellation of the fair, which hps become after more than 50 years one of the big features of the Capital’s roster of public events, was decided upon after careful consideration by the Defence Department and the Exhibi- tion directors. With the preesnt Army Basic Training Centre established in Lansdownes Park, holding of the ex- hibitioon would mean loss of o month or six weesk of training while the men were being moved to another base.

Under the newly-made aramge- ments, the exhibition will be cancelled for duration, unless circumstances again alter the plans. It, had ben an- nounced formerly that the fair would be held. All exhibitors have been noti- fied of the cancellation.

Florida Note, Coldest Spot Is in California

Not long ago a man dropped an orange in Santa Monica, Calif., and the citrus fruit shattered into a mil- lion pieces because it was frozen so solid. The man who dropped the orange was wearing sheepskin un- derwear and an air-tight suit of leather. His head was covered with a helmet fashioned of spun alumi- num and welded to the, shoulders of his insulated outfit.

And since the ain he stood in might have given him pneumonia if he had breathed it, an ingenious valve in ■ his suit brought air that nad been warmed by his body up to, his nostrils.

The Santa' Monica Chamber of Commerce does not deny this story because the most frigid spot on the North American Continent is in the -so-called cold room of the Douglas Aircraft factory in that community. The temperature in this room is con- .rolled by a) mechanism which elim- inates heat so that the mercury falls as low as 104 degrees below zero.

The purpose of the cold room is to reproduce the weather conditions under which men and planes must function at great altitudes. The test pilots at the Douglas airplane plant have found out . that, àt 35,000 feet, the temperature is usually about 67 degrees below zero.

Long and painstaking experi- ments, in the cold room have made it possible to know, in advance of actual flight, that motors will work in the intense cold of the upper at- mbsphere and that the men flying the ships are properly dressed for their jobs.

Conservation Of Farm Rubber

There will be no new farm equip- ment supplied on rubber’ tires for teh duration of the war. Every farmer -will have to make his present rubber equipment last until the wax is over or he will be without the advantages or use of these machinés sK à time when they are especially necessary for Increased production, .reduced Posts and tq offset the labour shortage, says G. N. Denike, Dominion Experi- mental Staton, Swift Current, Sask.

Practically all rubber tires on farm machinery machinery oan be made to -give better service and longer life than normal If the following points ,arè carefully noted:

1. Rubber Is a perishable product and subject to damage by heat, freez- ing and thawing, direct sunlight and wet. Keep rubber tires under cover as much as possible when not in act- ual use, preferably in a cool, dry and darkened shed.

2. Rubber .will age in time but its life can be prolonged by proper use when active, and proper protection when inactive.

3. All rubber tires, except the solid type, depend upon correct air pressure for their strength to carry the load and for their lo-.„ wearing qualities. Check each tire for correct pressure at least twice every week when in use.

4. Low air pressure causes cracking of the side walls and breaks in the fabric. Keep tires slightly above the average recommended pressure for longest wear and trouble free life.

Jjiv-'Pkeok the alignment of all wheels with rubber tires at frequent intervals. Any wheel which is out of true or Improperly balanced causes excessive, wear on that tire.

6. Never overload or overspeed rubber tires.

7. Use the proper amount of wheel weights on drive wheel tires. Informa- tion on wheel weights and how to make them Is available from the Dom- lr(lon Experimental Station, Swift Current, Sjask., ' •

8. Adjust the line of draft on each

Only Good Fly Is A Dead One

This has been said, at times, of other pests but never with more truth. Flies 'are the scavengers of the world. Right now, on many war fronts, as carriers of disease and death, they constitute a major problem facing the military medical authori- ties.

And here, on the home front, not- withstanding the warnings of health experts, medical men and scientists, tljere will again be too little attention paid to the probelm of guarding against the fly menace.

Do you realizze that every manure gile, every exposed garbage tin, every refuse heap on which flies delight to browse around, is a potential source of fatal contamination? Do you know that the, bacteria on onp small fly’s body may munber 5,0000,000, that flies are, possibly, the most prolific breeders In the insect kingdom, that their favorite habitat Is the place where, most filth abounds and that. It the opportunity comes their way, they will carry disease-breeding germs into home and store and deposit them on food, drink and human beings? In- fantile paralysis, diarrhoea, typhoid are a few of the menaces that may come In the wake of open and unscreened windows or doors.

One way to eliminate the fly menace and asafe, sure, clean way is to place Wilson’s Fly Fads here and there In convenient places. They’ll kill all the flies and, incidentally, they’re most efficacious and killers too. So don’t only protect your home fey trying to keep them out. Make doubly sure by deciding to wipe them out!

Cat Does Not Masticate Food; Tears It Apart

' The cat is a carnivorous or flesh- eating animal. It does not-masticate . its food as does the herbhjcrous ani- i mais and as man should. Its teeth and jaws are not made for that pur- pose. It cannot move its lower jaw as man and herbivorous animals do—from side to side. It opens its mouth by lowering its lower jaw and

'closes it by raising it to the upper jaw or mandible. It uses its teeth for gripping, puncturing and tearing its food to the size, it can swallow easily in a lump.

As a cat does not masticate its food, the salivary glands, are small, there being little demand for the saliva to mix with the food and partially predigest it before it en- ters the stomach, where the principal part of the. digestion is carried on before it enters the intestine to un- dergo further digestion and assimi- lation. The larger and tougher the masses it swallows the longer they remain in the stomach.

The dog and cat have compara- :

lively large stomachs but somewhat rudimentary intestines.. The longer ! the food takes for digestion, the less ! craving there is for food until the next feeding feme'approaches.

Human Feet Not Built .For Speed, Says Doctor

Anyone who ever has sat in the stands at a track meet apd seen athletes spring a hundred yards in less than 10 seconds, or watched distance runners step off a mile, in a few seconds over four minutes may find it hard to believe that the human foot was not designed for super-fast travel.

But no less an authority than- Sir Adolphe Abrahams, a doctor who has looked after the health and well being of England’s crack teams for many years, thinks that men’s feet are not properly built for speed.

Sir Adolphe, strange as it seems, got this notion after thinking about the close-fitting shoes that sprinters wear.

The British physician says that such shoes help runners hit higher speeds than they could barefooted, or with looser fitting shoes. But, from the point of view of allowing the foot’s natural structure full play, the modern track shoe is an -in- strument of torture.

Sir Adolphe, turning to the legs of the horse—a much faster animal than man — thinks that Nature showed her hand in the simpler de- sign of these limbs. In the course of evolution the legs of the horse got rid of most of its smaller muscles and joints. The horse runs on the nail of the one toe it has left. And there seems to be no question that the modern horse can hit a much faster pace than the prehistoric spe- cies from which it developed.

Dr. Abrahams concludes human feet were intended to wrap them- selves around tree trunks, or to creep soundlessly over uneven ground. He doesn’t think they were intended to travel at high speed.

t Metal Finder Developed ■* A radioscope—a strange gadget

that, when unfolded, is its own trans- mitter and receiver, has been in- vented by John Patrick Halloran, Los Angeles mechanic and air pilot.

The instrument, he explained, is mounted on a pair of carrying han- dles between which the operator stands while carrying the instru- ment. When carried the transmit- ter floods the earth with strong radiation waves that are balanced with respect to the receiver so that signalé can be registered both in the headphones and the detecto-, meter dial which is in front of the operator’s eyes.

As soon as the wave encounters, metal within the earth the metal be- 1

comes energized by the radio wave 'and sends back a radiation of its own. This reflex, he explains, is picked up by the receiver, resulting in a loud signal in the headphones and a strong1 deflection of'the point- er on the visual indicating instru-1 ment.

Special ‘Soaps’ May Aid Synthetic Materials

Development of new synthetic materials of great civil and military use may be considerably aided by a chemical discovery.

The production of artificial silk, wool and other textile fibers, of rub- berlike substances and many varie- ties pf general plastics, will be eas- ier than ever before, and will also follow new lines of development by the application of newly found method, according to the discoverer of the method, Dr. Harold P. Lund- gren, scientist of the Western Re- search laboratory of the United States department of agriculture at Albany, Calif.

Dr. Lundgren has found how to give special “soap” treatments to proteins, “the raw materials of all life,” which are used as the source of countless plastics And synthetic fibers such as “nylon.”

Certain newly prepared and tested chemicals are known as “deter- gents,” meaning “washing agents” or “soaps”—they are not like the ordinary soaps of daily use. Dr. Lundgren has employed 39 of these chemicals for the transformation of proteins.

Under, his treatment, using only a very little of the “detergent,” the molecules of the protein become “unfolded,” as a bud opens into a flower. But the important thing is that such “unfolding” can be regu- lated in any desired way.

Curb Disease >-

It is much easier to keep plants free from disease than to control the disease when established. Go over your borders' at least twice a week uprooting weeds and remove faded leaves and flowers. Plants that are prevented from going .to seed continué to develop flowers.

Better prune your honeysuckle several times during its growing season. It is only by constant prun- ing that it can be kept within bounds. „

After the fruit has formed on your currant bushes, if you notice evi- dence of currant worms, spray with hellebore or pyrethrum.

i Literally soak your lawn twice a week. Semi-weekly soaking is much better than daily sprinkling.

Kodiak Once Cannibal Isle Some of the earliset settlers on

the North American continent—can- nibalistic migrants from Siberia who settled Kodiak island—used the skulls of vanquished enemies as drinking cups, according to Dr. Ales Hrdlicka of the Smithsonian Insti- tution.

These early-d,ay Americans, Dr. Hrdlicka said, used the skulls of valorous enemies in the belief that some virtuek of the deceased might be transferred to them.

He said a study of the skeletons of the islanders showed they appar- ently were remarkably free from disease. Even fractures were infre- quent, Dr. Hrdlicka reported, and evidences of dental decay were missing.

Proteinlike Substance From Roger Williams’ laboratory

at the University of Texas has come i the announcement in the Journal of Biological Chemistry of August, 1941, that the injury-producing proteinlike substance in raw egg white has been separated. The name of the ‘sub- stance. is “avidin.” It is not harm- ful, that is, does not produce fatal

, injury to experimental animals if the egg white is heated before be- ing eaten. The reason given for the cause of raw-egg white injury is that the avidin combines with vita-

I min H also called biotin, making | this vitamin unavailable to the ani- mal organism^ When biotin is lack-

I ing to the animal organism, the ani- mal dies.

Smallpox Still Here Many U. S. citizens believe that

smallpox was wiped out in this coun-1

try decades ago. Metropolitan Life1

Insurance company’s Statistical Bui- ; letin recently pointed out a striking statistic: the U. S. in 1939 had over 10,000 smallpox cases. “With the single exception of India (with al- most 130,000 cases),” said the bul- letin, “we still lead the civilized world in our tolerance of this loathe- some and dangerous disease.” The reason: failure to vaccinate. Only ten states (nine of them east of the Mississippi) have compulsory vac- cination laws. Smallpox is rare on Hie Atlantic seaboard, occurs mostly in Indiana, Iowa, California, Tex- as, Illinois.

Air Mostly Nitrogen, Oxygen Ordinary air consists mostly of ni-

trogen and oxygen, and a few rare gases such as carbon dioxide, neon, argon, traces of helium and hydro- gen.

Under much higher pressures than that of the ordinary atmosphere even these gases become harmful to human beings.

In submerged submarines the at- mospheric pressure is necessarily very high.

When it is about seven times as great as ordinary atmospheric pres- sure, then oxygen becomes poison- ous for man. Breathing oxygen un- der such pressure may produce sud- den arid violent convulsions of tha body.

Jump Butter Prices By Subsidy

Commoncing this week, dairymen producing milk for creameries will re-| ceive a subsidy of six cents a pound butterfat equivalent to about five cents a pound butter, direct from the Do-, minion: treasury. èy the plan the Government hopes to bring returns to creamery patrons more in line with what other milk producers are now receiving.

In Eastern Ontario it is expected the butterfat price will rise to around 47e to 49c a pound, depending on what value is placed on skim milk. Factories will be able to pay about 42 cents, com- pared with about 36 cents at present.

As in the case of cheese subsidies and bonuses, the butterfat subsidy will be paid direct to creameries, and must be shown by them in their return1

to producers. While the matter is not

settled, it is expected that creamer-! ies will be paid every two weeks 1

Decision to pay a direct subsidy to producers, rather than allow retail but ter prices to rise above ceiling prices, was announced Friday last by the War time Prices and Trade Board, and fol- lowed prolonged discussion between officials of the board and hte Depart-

inent of Agriculture. Agriculture offi cigls have all anong contended Canada faced blitter shortage, with rationing possible by early winter, unless some- thing was done for producers to stimu late production.

A conference is being held in Ottawa by the Agricultural Supplies Board on July 14 and 15 to get a butter pro- duction campaign under way. Provin- cial deputy ministers of agriculture, dairy commissioners and producer representative are being invited.

Supoprt of the market to main- prices is also promised by the Govern- ment buying agency. Commodity Prices Stabilzation Corporation, Limited. The objective willl be a minimum price,1

never less than two cents below the' maximum already established by the Wartime Prices and Trade Board. j

The Board announced also that the ( Federal Agricultural Department will lunch a, campaign to promote increas-1

ed butter production, particularly ip areas where the subsidy offers oppor- tunities for greater output.

In addition, for the balance of this season, the dairy products board of the' Department of Agriculture will stand prepared to support the market and maintain what is essentially a schedule of minimum prices at a level of two cents below’ the maximum prices al- ready established by the Wartime Prices and Trade Board, the an-

nouncement said. , At the same time, the Board call- ed on Canadians to eliminate an waste of butter in every kitchen and dining room in the country. Consumption of butter, from tha

viewpoint of ‘ ‘ domestic disappear- ance,” entailed two ‘J quite different things’’—actual human consumption in quantities necessary to maintain nutrition, and waste in hotels, res- taurants, military camps and private households.

Waste has no place in a war econ- omy, the Board said, and now must be eliminated.

Citing figures, the Board said: “Creamery butter production in the

first five months of 1942 was nearly 10 percent, lowre than for the cor- responding period of 1941 Domestie disappearance, in contrast, was more than 10 percent higher.

‘ ‘ The present measures of the Board and the Department of Agriculutre axe therefore a combined attack on this gap.” , A^ricjiltulre experts predicted that the bonus will not have any immediate effect on production because it was not considered sufficient to cause farmers to switch from cheese production. But these sources said, the bonus will en- courage increased Winter milk produc tion and farmers would likely enlarge their herds for next Spring.

TRAGEDY of m * ^ElleryQueen

©STOKES W-N-U- RELEAS«

“Martin Stopes is the X we have been seeking—the man responsible tor removing Harley Longstreet, Charles Wood and John O. DeWitt.”

Thumm gulped. “I’ve never heard of him! His name’s never come up!”

“What's in a name, Inspector? You have had the pleasure of seeing Martin Stopes many, many times!”

AH that afternoon his men had been disturbing the turbid depths of various New Jersey streams, crossing the path of the West Shores Railroad and, as successive attempts with the dragging apparatus proved sterile.

It had grown quite dark by the time the wet and weary party of men reached a stream near the town of| Bogota, Strong searchlights were set| up near the rear tracks and Lane and Thumm stood watching the mechani- cal movements of the workmen. There was a shout from one of the men operating a rowboat twenty feet from] the roadbed. Another searchlight was|

trained on the boat. “What is it?” roared the Inspector,

scrambling down the slope. “A .38, no doubt?” asked Lane

mildly. 1

'“That’s what it “That’s what it is!” cried Thumm. “Only one empty chamber, and I’ll bet dollars to dough- nuts that when we fire a bullet through this barrel the markings’ll jibe with that one we took out of DeWitt!”

He fondled the wet weapon ten- derly, wrapped it in a handkerchief and put the thing into his coat pocket.

They had reached the police car now and rested gratefully against the black door. Lane remarked: "In any event, the discoyery of the revolver where We found it definitely eliminates any opportunity of Collins.”

You mean that Collins now has r. prefect out?”

“Judiciously phrased,, Inspector. The local pulled into the Ridgefield Hark station at 12:30. Collins se- cured a taxicab before the train was out of sight—this is important. From that point on his, alibi is fixed by the taxi-driver who was taking him in the opposite direction from the train — toward New York. The revolver could not have been thrown from the train into the stream before 12:35, the time the train passed over it. Even if the revolver were thrown into the stream by a person on foot, he could not have reached the stream before the train, naturally.”

Quacey spoke into a telephone in his wiggery at The Hamlet as Drury

Lane sprawled in a chair. “Yes, sir, Mr. Bruno. Tonight at

eleven you are to meet Mr. Lane here and bring Inspector Thumm and a small squad of police in plain cloth- es.”

At the appointed time the door of the library opened suddenly and Quacey slipped in, an expectant grin ] on his old gnarled face. Then into the room strode a burley, ruddy-faced man who regarded them truculently.! He had a powerful chin, but his cheeks sagged slightly and there were' unmistakable signs of dissipation around his eyes. He was dressed in rough tweeds, and jammed his hands into flapless pockets and glowered at them. j* - !

District Attorney Bfuno blinked his eyes rapidly, but Inspector Thumm was affected in a subtler, profounder way. He whispered hoarsely: “Harley Longstreet ! ”

“ ‘O, that deceit should dwell in such a gorgeous palace ! ’ ’ said Har- lley Longstreet—in the splendid voice of Drury Lane,

Eighteen minutes past midnight found the police party seated in one of the rear cars of the Weehawken-New burgh local train.

Lane was^ swathed in a topcoat, a wide-brimmed felt hat pulled over his face. He sat beside Inspector Thumm by the window, his head turned to the pane, apparently either asleep or ab- sorbed in some mental problem.

Thumm glanced at Lane’s averted head, sighed, and got to his feet. He tramped heavily out of the car. Al- most at once hé retruned with an excitement-flushed face. He sat down and larned forward, whispering to Bruno “something queer.:.just spot- ted Ahearn and Imperial in the forward car.”

The conductor appeared at the for ward end of the coach and began to collect and punch tickets. When he reéahed the police party he grinned in recognition;; Thumm nodded sour- ly and paid the fare of teh party in cash. The conductor took from his outside breast pocket a number of standard cash-fare tickets, placed them together, punched them at two places and, ripping the tickets in half, handed Thumm one set, depositing the other in a pocket ... ✓

Mr. Drury Lane, the somnolent,

chose this instant to spring startling- ly into life. He rose, whipped off the concealing hat and coat, and turned] to face the conductor The man star- ed blankly. Lane plunged his hand ! into one of the patch-pockets of his:

r -MNAPSWOT GUILD MAKING PICTURE-STORIES

■ I

is shot is from our “baking biscuits” sequence—the best way in the world to tell a story in pictures.

PICTURE-TAKING is a lot more fun, for the subjects, if the pic-

tures have a story to tell. At our house, we* do it this way. First, I pick two “story” ideas—one for Ann to he the model, another for Jack. Then I jot down .notes for six or eight pictures that will tell each story—picking the high spots, of course.

To decide which story shall he pictured lirst, we toss a coin. If Ann wins, it’s her story and she is the model, while Jack and I take the pictures. Actually, I suppose, I do most of it—placing the lights, setting the camera, and so on—hut I try to let Jack feel that he’s real- ly, the, “diteqtAL”. We. tell, Apn what to mo,1 Tor ‘éataï shot—idl'd hshifty the whole picture series is made in a short time. The following eve- ning, ft’s Jack’s turn as model, and Ann helps me shoot.

Sometimes we invite the next- door neighbor’s little girl over, as model, so that both Jack and Ann can hplp supervise. She enjoys it— if my 'story” idea gives her some-

thing interesting to do. We made a sequence last week, showing how^ she learned to bake biscuits. We pictured her measuring out the flour, kneading the dough, rolling it out, cutting the biscuits, sliding them into the oven—and, finally, taking a big bite out of the first one. It’s a good story.

That outline, incidentally, is typi- cal of our snapshot sequences. Just a step-hy-step account of things the children do. Jack, building an air- plane model or packing his knap sack for a hike; Ann, learning how to roller-skate, or how to make a rag doll. And they have already made one story sequence of me— loading my pipe, lighting it, sitting down with the evening paper, puf- fing away as I read, amd finally doz- ing off. Pretty good pictures, too, for youngsters.

Yon afcoujd try this idea of snap- shot sequences, if you haven’t al- ready. There’s fun in it—and the pictures are more interesting be- cause they fit together to tell a real story. 3i3 John van Guilder

sackcoat, produced a silver case and, snapping it open, took out a pair of eyeglasses. He did not put them on, merely regarded the conductor with a reflective, curious preoccupation.

The conductor’s hand stopped in mid-air, holding his ticket-punch. His mouth popped open!, his tall burly fi- gure sagged, the winy coloring of his face vanished.in a^flood of dead-white. Out of his mouth came a single word: L“Longstreet . .

The artificial lips of Harley Long- street smiled and his right hand dropping the silver case and eyeglass-j es, went again into his pocket and came oiit clutching something metal- lic . . .A tiny click and the conduc- tor tore his eyes away from that smil- ing face to look down dazedly at the handcuffs on his wrists.

Whereupon Mr Drury Lane smiled again this time at the unbeliving fac- es of Inspector Thumm and District Attorney Bruno. Lane said calmly: “Did you bring the inking-pad as I requested, Inspector?”

Thumm struggled to his feet, and while he grasped thé man’s nerveless hand and proceeded to press it on the pad, Lane picked up from his seat the discarded top coat, searched one of the pockets, and brought forth the consu- lar manila envelop. Thumm, handed Lane the wet impression of the con- ductor’s fingertips. Lane held the pa- per side by side with the photographic prints, cocking his head critically. Then he returned the wet impression tc the Inspector, together with- the photograph.

“What would you say, Inspector? You’ve compared thousands of these,

no doubt. ’ ’ ’ Thumm scanned them carefully.

‘ ' They look the same to me,’ ’ he mut- tered.

Bruno faltered to his feet. “ytr. Lane, who—what—?” ■ 1

Lane grasped the arih of the man- acled man in a not unfriendly man-

fner. “Mr Bruno, Inspector Thumm, lallow me to introduce one of God’s most unfortunate children, Mr. Mar- tin Stopes, alias Conductor Edwaird Thompson of the West Shore Raill- road, alias an unknown gentleman on the ferry boat, .alias Conductor Char- les Wood!”

EPILOGUE As it had done five weeks before, an

automobile wound up the road to The Hamlet with Inspector Thumm and District Attorney Bruno.

“The papers have informed me Stopes has confessed,” said Lane. “Anything interesting?”

“Interesting to us,” said Bruno, ‘ ‘ but I suppose you know the sub- stance of it.”

“On the contrary.” Lane smiled. “There are a number of things in connection with him about which I am at sea.”

From Br^uno he learned - that it had been Stopes who in 1912 had discover- ed a manganese mine, while he and his partner, Crockett, were prospect- ing in the interinor of Uruguay. Be- cause the two men needed capital to work it they had taken in as partners, on smaller percentages, two other pros- (

pectors — Lopgstreet and DeWitt.' Stopes made it clear that the crime he had been accused of subsequently was committed by Crockett. Crockett had attacked Slopes' wife one night in a drunken lust, while Stopes was at the nearby mine, and when she resisted,' had killed her. Longstreet had con- ] cocted the plan whereby the three were to accuse Stopes of the murder,! and, since no one know the mine le-! gaily, belonged to Stopes, they could take over the mine themselves—it had been unregistered. Crockett was shaken by his crime and ' accepted the ^ plan eargerly. DeWitt, Stopes said was] dominated by Longstreet and forced by threats to join the conspiracy.

The shock of his wife's death, the realization of his partners’ perfidy had unbalanced the young geolegist. J It was not until after his conviction and imprisonment that he regained his normal faculties. From that moment his thoughts weer diverted to re- venge. By the time of his escape, close confinement had taken toll of his fea- tures, although his body was as strong as ever, and he felt reasonably cer- tain he would not be recognized by his intended victims. ' “These things, however,” concluded Bruno,” aren’t nearly so important now—to me, at least—as your uncanny solution? ”

“In the street car murder one in-

ference stood out at once,” said Lane, “and I cannot comprehend how it es- caped the intelligence of both of you. The nature of the weapon was such as to make it apparent that it could not be handled with the bare hand without fatal results to the handler. I felt cetrain, then, that when the murderer slipped the needled, cork into Longstreet’s pocket, he must have worn a glove. Now we knew the cork was dropped in the pocket after Long- street boarded the car. Please recall, inspector, that I specifically asked you at the termination of your recital whe- ther gloves, among other things, had been found; and you replied in the ne- gative. So, although the murderer was still in the street car, there was the peculiar situation of an .object, which must have been used in the commis- sion of the crime, not being out found after the crime. It could not haev been used in the commission of the crime not being found after the crime . It could not have been thrown out of a window; no window was open from a period even prior to the boarding of the Longstreet party. It coulld not have been thrown through a door, because Duffy opened and closed the doors on the only occasions when they were used. If the glove could not have been thrown out of the car, and yet it left the oar, it could have done so only on the person of someone. But only one person left the car! That was the conductor. Charles Wood, sent by Sergeant Duffy to summon Officer Morrow and notify headquarters. t “So 'I was forced to conclude — wild, as.'ft seemed—that Wood had ta- ken the glove from the scene of the crime and disposed of it somewhere. That reasoning made him either the murderer or an accomplice. Natur- ally, he could not have anticipated be- ing granted the opportunity to leave the oar and dispose of the glove. So he must have accepted the possibility of having the glove found on him if there were a search apd he had had no opportunity to throw it away. But as a canductor, handling money all day long, he knew a glove on his per- son would not excite suspicion.

Reduce Food Cost Improve Health

Cook potatoes in their jackets; don’t discard the outer leaves of lettuce and cabbage; save all the water in which vegetables are cooked to put in soup or add to gravy; don’t cut or shred fruits or vegetables for salad until, the last possible moment before serv- ing; insist on bread made from- vita- min B (Canada Approved) flour. All these little things add up to better health through increased vitamin in- take without adding to food costs, and good health is vital for victory.

Potatoes can be a dependable source of vitamin C, but too frequently 50 per cent of this valuable quality is lost in the cooking, according to Nu- trition Services, Department of Pen- sions and National Health. Much of the vitamin C content can be saved by cooking potatoes in their skins. This should be done not only in baking potatoes, but in boiling as -vyell. They can be cooked in their jackets and peeled just before serving, or with the new potatoes many people like to eat the tender skins.

The dark green outer leaves of let- tuce and cabbage are coarser in text- ure than the inner leaves but they ere 10 to 30 times richer in1 vitamin A, so shred them up and put them in the soup pot or mixed salad. Leaf let- tuce, by the. way, is richer in vitamin content than head lettuce.

Bread made from Vitamin B White Flour (Canada Approved) contains several times more vitamin B, and more iron than ordinary white flour. Mental depression, lack of morale, fa- tigue and irritability are said to be attributable in large measure to de- ficiency of Vitamin B.

This section lost one of its oldest residents in the death of Miss Flora McLeod, which occurred at Cornwall, Anr.l, Born in the Isle of Skye, Scot- land, 87 years ago, she was a daughter of the late Alexander McLeod and his wifÇ, Flora McLean. She made lier home in Apple Hill for 35 years, during which time she enjoyed the love and espect of all who had the pleasure of

hr acquaintance. The last three years of her life were spent at Maxville, be- ing in Cornwall only a few days be- fore she passed away.

Her only living relative is a nephew, Arthur A. McLeod, clerk of the Su- preme Court at Madison, Wis.

The funeral was held Wednesday from Clingen’s funeral parlors, Ap- ple Hill to North Branch cemetery.! The service was conducted by Rev. P. J. Lambert, B.A., B. D., pastor of Zion United Church, Apple HiH.

Pallbearers were Dan S. MacLennan,, Jas. Clyde, Lloyd Clingen and Albert Clingen. i

Portable Stove Created By Benjamin Franklin

As late as the middle of the Eight- eenth century the Pennsylvania Dutch were the only settlers who used stoves. At first these were im- ported from the old country, but as the iron industry became estab- lished in the Colonies, stovemaking became one of its chief products. In this connection, two famous men are connected with the history of our first stoves—Benjamin Franklin and Henry William Stiegel.

As early as 1742, Franklin was ex- perimenting with some form of heat- ing device which would be an im- provement over the stoVes then in use. The “Pennsylvania Fireplace” was his first effort. This had eight plates and was almost entirely open in the front. It was designed to fit into an ordinary fireplace but was portable. In the back was a hot air box behind the fire oven which sup- plied the room with fresh air and provided for the circulation of the heat. It is said one of these stoves, probably made about 1750. is pre- served at Doyleston, Pa. ,

Franklin encouraged others to benefit by his idea and wrote and published a pamphlet entitled “An Account of the New-Invented Penn- sylvania Fireplace.” He was offered a patent on his stove but refused to accept it, saying—“As we enjoy great advantages of others, we should be glad to serve others by any invention of ours.”

Researches on Brain Produces Strange Effects

Acetylcholine and other sub- stances, built out of the molecules of the substance choline, play some very important parts in the work- ing of the brain and of the whole network of the body’s nervous sys- tem. Inhaling of some of these sub- stances would produce strange men- tal and nervous disorders.

This is suggested by recent re- searches on brain conducted in America and in Britain.

In England, Dr. Denis Williams, a “squadron leader” of the Royal Air force, ànd a distinguished brain sur- geon and physiologist, has found that the substance acetylcholine pro- duced powerful effects upon the elec- trical patterns of the brain.

Some of the drugs, all “choline- like substances, ”, had one effect in small doses, and' an opposite effect in large doses, but they all influ- enced the transmission of nerve messages between the brain cells, and from the brain to the nerves, and from the nerves to the muscles.

In military and civil medicine, the newly investigated drugs would be used for the treatment of nerv- ous and mental disorders, including paralysis, epilepsy, and so on.

Sharks Once Shunned, Now Vital Source of Vitamin

Science has turned the tables on the sharks. •

After roaming the seas for cen- turies—shunned as a scavenger and feared as a killer, the shark is find- ing a place of importance in the American home.

Tiny capsules, designed to bring health to thousands, are being pre- pared from this killer of the deep.

Recent research by the medical world has disclosed vital vitamin content in shark liver oil. Leather goods manufacturers have found a place in their industry for shark

( skin. t Other uses will no doubt be ! made of the finny monsters in the near future and the shark is now the hunted instead of the hunter.

| Just so you will know what kinds of sharks might have contributed to the little cppsules sitting in your medicine chest—here’s a bit of busi- ness about them and where they may be found.

! Perhaps the best 'known of these babies is the white shark or man- eater. He Is white on the belly and brown on the back—and when you see him coming toward you the only thing to do is pray.

Another man-eater is the blue shark. He is also of the white belly clan and has a slatey blue back. These can be found most anywhere in the warmer waters of the world and when they go after a school of fish they’ll run them right into the fisherman’s net.

They aren’t babies—they grow up to and better than 20-feet in length.

Very similar to these is the dusky shark—only smaller.

The thresher shark is easily iden- tified by the very long upper tail lobe which this type uses as a pow- erful flail when it attacks a school of fish. The thresher runs from 12 to 15 feet long.

A common small species along the Atlantic coast is the sand shark which has sharp teeth but according to mariners will not bother a human In the water. ' .

Anzacs Like Fighting Perhaps the most distinctive men

of battle engaged in the various European war theaters are the An- zacs, tall, colorful, f. hard-bitten troops from “down under” who travel half-way around the world just to get in a good fight.

The Anzacs—Australian and New Zealand Army Corps—manage to squeeze into. those places where going is roughest. In the last war more than half the cowboy-hatted antipodean troops were wounded or killed.

Again, in th^ present conflict, the Anzacs find themselves in a difficult sector. They were chosen to drive the Axis troops from Libya. A con- tingent got as far as Tobruk but were cut off from the main army and holed up for the summer.

They held out for five months until a British force (more Anzacs) slashed their way through the Ger- man tanks on the Libyan escarp- ment and released their buddies from the siege.

Seminole Indian Chief Didn’t Pull Punches

Osceola, wily half-breed leader of the Semlnoles, regarded murderous deceit as a fair weapon in his re- lentless warfare against the United States government in defending the right of his people to live in the thick, steaming everglades of Flor- ida. His cunniqg method was to ob- tain supplies for his men by prom- ising at intervals to keep the peace, and then later ambushing scouting parties of American soldiers in the fastnesses of the swampy* grass- lands. Though it was done under extreme provocation, it is generally admitted that the government itself was not fair with Osceola -when, un- der a flag of truce, it seized the savage and put him into the irons in which he died. The Seminolé war lasted seven years, ending in 1842, and cost thousands of lives and more than $20,000,Qd|0. The van- quished redskins were sent to reser- vations west of the Mississippi. One band of Seminoles was never caught. Its descendants are the few hundred harmless Indians now residing ir the Florida Everglades.

Cross-Stitch Rug The individual touch that makes

your home charming—a handmade cross-stitch rug! Or RUGS-rfor you can make several with fast, sturdy cross-stitch!

The first thing is to rule squares on your rug canvas (35 squares on a 26 by 35-inch piece) leaving a IV2- inch margin on all sides.

Then to stitch, following for each square our pattern diagram. Each little block stands for one cross- stitch; the shades, are for colors- peach, turquoise, brown. In alter- nate squares you might have tur- quoise, orchid, cerise.

Your stitching’s done with fat rug yarn. Each stitch in the row work- ing to the right, should be from low- er left to upper right. Coming back over these stitches, cross from low- er right to upper left—all crosses in the same direction!

After completing all squares, make a border of one row of turquoise and one brown and stitch canvas to denim backing.

Machine, Machineless “The machine method is older. In

this type of wave, the hair is pre- pared and wet with an alkaline preparation, and the heat is sup- plied by heaters (one for each curl). These units are attached by cords to the central heating unit, an elec- tric machine.

“In the machineless type, the heat is supplied to each curl by a small chemical pad, which is heat- producing when moistened with wa- ter, or in some cases a specific chemical solution. The pad is usual- ly still cold when applied to the hair and does not come in direct contact with it.- The chemical re- action generates heat, the maximum temperature is quickly reached, and the pad begins to cool.”

First Photograph Maj. Albert W. Stevens, com-

mander of the National Geographic society-U. S. army air corps strat- osphere balloon Explorer II, took the

'first photograph ever made showing the division between the troposphere and stratosphere and also the cur- vature of the earth. This unique picture was obtained above 96 per cent of the mass of the earth’s at- mosphere, and is the first photo- graph ever made with the line of sight from the camera to a far-dis- tant objective (the arc of the dust horizon) wholly in the stratosphere. Major Stevens also made the first natural-color photograph in the stratosphere, at an altitude of ap- proximately eight miles above sea level.

Crystal Has Electricity It was discovered in the last cen-

tury that if crystal, of quartz or rock salt, is subjected to any stress or strain, its surface becomes elec- trically charged. Positive electrici- ty is accumulated on one side, neg- ative electricity on the opposite side of a thin crystal plate.

On the other hand, if a crystal plate is put between alternating elec- trical currents then the crystal ma- terial expands and contracts. In oth- er words, the regularly spaced at- oms of a crystal and «.wing in perfect rhythfns. ¥hey are won- dertial electricAl oscillators. That is why they are used in radie coihmù- nicaticn devices.

Japanese Stones Crying Japanese stones are free to com-

plain. “If you happen to hear,” says the Japan Times Weekly, "a strange wailirtg sound when travel- ing through the districts around Fujiyama , . . you’ll be surprised that it is the poor stones crying be- cause they have no plaçe to go.” The explanation is that these pieces of ancient lava ate' prized as gar- den stones add many people have lived by gathering and selling them. But under the Anti-Luxury Regida- lions luxuries ate forbidden to be transported, and garden stones are deemed a luxury.
