He fell about 12 feet to a cement

Lays Twin Eggs
A goose on the farm of Mr. Wil
fred Coleman, Tuckersmith, produced
what appears to be an 'Unusual
iety of double yoke egg. In the
Saturday morning were found
eggs each partially flattened at
end and when placed with the flat
faces together formed the shape
size of an ordinary goose egg.
centre of the flat surfaces had
shell and a membrane through which
could be seen the yolk in each egg.
The larger egg formed three-quarters
of a perfect egg and the smaller one
was shaped as the remaining quarter.
The goose credited with this curiosity
had been keeping to the customary
schedule for geese laying’ every sec
ond day but every egg was a double
yoke which is ’not suitable for a
hatching egg. Saturday’s production
appeared an attempt to remedy this
situation. A goose usually lays a set-
ing of 12 or 13 eggs. If no goslings
hatch from the first setting it is re
lated that on occasion a second set
ting will be produced. — Seaforth

HER FINGER JOINTS
BEGAN TO SWELL
perfectly Straight at 63 —— Thanks to
Kruschen
Nearly twenty years ago, this wo
man was attacked by severe rheuma
tism. Now 63, she tells how Kruschen
restored her to health, and has kept
her free from rheumatism all these
years:—
“In 1918, an attack of 'flu’ left me
with severe rheumatism, and I was in
bed three months. When I got up I
could only hobble around with diff
iculty and pain. My finger joints
were beginning to swell, and were
very painful. I was told that nothing
could be done for the swelling. A
friends recommended me to try
Kruschen Salts, which I did with
very satisfactory results. To-day, at
63, my fingers are perfectly straight,
I am free from rheumatism, and can
do all my own housework.”—-(Mrs.)
M.W.
Two of the ingredients of Kruschen
have the power of dissolving the
needle-pointed crystals of uric acid
which settle in your joints, causing
them to swell, ache and inflame?
Other ingredients of Kruschen assist
Nature to flush out these dissolved
crystals through the natural channels.

w
ings, and so you have to bundle ev
erything up and move it out of that
room, into the next one.
It’s strange but every woman, even,
if she only has a two-room shack
with a few sticks of furniture, has to
go through two spells of house
cleaning . . . Spring and Fall. There’s
a smell of polish and varnish, and
coal-oil, and it even gets into the
food. Your wife goes around with a
perpetual worried look on her face,
and it’s about the most trying time
possible for the men folks of a family.
Just like yesterday! Mrs. Phil lias
Some sort of a cloth, tied over her
hair, with an old pair of stockings on
her arms and hands to keep the dust
away. She’s all business, and no mat
ter what type of flattery I used all
during the year it just didn’t seem,
to work then.
She’s so busy tugging at rugs and
mats and ’hauling them out to beat
that she will scarcely talk. Curtains
are hauled down, and there’s quilts
and sheets and pictures all piled up
on the kitchen floor. Every time you
try to sneak into an easy chatr, she
has a job for you.
There’s hot water on the stove all
the time, to scrub with, and the smell
of dust seems to get clogged up in
your nostrils. Mattresses get rolled
up and you sort of half trot and half
let the mattress pull you along as
you ease down the front steps with I
one all rolled up in your arms. You j is all cleaned up again and you feel
try to make the ends of a bed and
the springs stand up against the near
est wall and after trying to coax them
for half an hour, and when they fin
ally do stand up, you discover that
they have to be moved out in the hall
way until that floor is scrubbed.
Then there’s woodwork to be wash
ed. If there is anything as tiresome
as rubbing away at the woodwork
with a little rag and watching water
get dirty and only a little patch of
the woodwork get clean then I would
like to know what it is.
But, of course, there is beating rugs.
First of all you ’try the broom.
■^Vhamm . . . and. a cloud of dust
comes streaming back into your face.
Then you try it from the other side
and discover that it doesn’t seem ,to
make much difference. The rug seems
to be made of India rubber and
like trying to drag a hand Sleigh
er gummy mud. Then you try
axe or a stick or whatever you
find, but it doesn’t make much differ
ence.
You stop then to sneak a few drags
at the pipe and looking across the
fields you can see that the neighbours
have thetr rugs out on the line and
there is your neighbour whamming
away at the rags.
The upstairs window opens and the
wife yells: “You keep on at those
rugs or we’ll never get done.”
But it will be nice when everything
something like the Irishman on the
gallows, who said, in a rather phil
osophical way: “Well, it’s going to
be nice in heaven.’’

“HOUSECLEANING”
It seems that my annual Spring
twinge of rheumatism always man
ages to come at the wrong time, and
leave in just the same way. Yester
day, when I got up, the warm sun
was streaming in through that east
window and I did a few fancy steps
just to show off how well I was, and
to prove that the shooting pains had
all disappeared.
“That’s fine," Mrs. Phil piped up,
from where she was doing up her hair
"I’m glad you’re feeling so good Phil,
because I' want you to help me with
the housecleaning.’’
There was nothing I could do about
it then, such as, feeling a lot of pain,
and so I had to go ahead and help
her with the housedeaning. All that
furniture has to be moved around and
shunted back and forth like they do
with those empty cars at the station
down in the village.
First of all it starts with the front
room. All the great gilt-edged fram
ed pictures of the ancestors at Lazy
Meadows sort of frown down at you
when you start to move everything.
But this is no time to consider feel-
