KILLER We had our first camping weekend Saturday and Sunday-in the rain, of course, (Have you noticed it rains every weekend?) The Keller family went to Niagara Falls with the rest of the tourists, We had planned the trip for a couple of weeks. After visiting the Falls on our holidays last summer and finding our money ran out before we could see everything there was to see, we were determined to return for another look. Foremost on our list of things to do was a trip to the wax museum. We had seen one on the hill overlooking the falls and Figured it was the one and only wax museum in the city. That's why we were so distressed to learn that it had burned down. As it turned out, the most popular wax museum still stands at the Sheraton Foxhead Hotel . .. but we didn't know that Friday when we were packing for the trip. On the same day, my daughter picked up the newspaper and cried, "Oh Mom, guess what? The Falls have dried Quickly I assured her that the magnificent horseshoe falls still flowed full tumble. Still, when we started out on our journey Saturday, trailer in tow, the lure of Niagara Falls was somewhat lessened for everyone. We arrived in the city about 2 pm. We had stopped at an information booth en route and learned of a trailer park right in the city. Our first concern was to park the camper and get it set up just in case we were late getting back to bed. Then we began the descent to the tourist trap right at the falls. The traffic was terrible and there wasn't a parking spot in sight. In desperation, we drove into the municipal parking lot where hundreds and hundreds of cars from all over Canada and the USA were filling up every available space. Maybe it was because we had paid 75 cents to park. Maybe it was our eagerness to view the action. But whatever it was we ended up parked in an unmarked zone partly onto a walkway. No one seemed to mind. There wasn't a chance of getting close to the stone wall to view the falls so we spent the price of a tour, donned rubber coats and boots and went down into the tunnels where we could admire the falls from a front row seat. We took a drive through the Niagara parks, some of the most beautiful parks in the world I have no doubt. I cooked dinner at a picnic table near the lovely floral clock. And we tramped around, trying to see everything and miss nothing. There was still no chance of getting close to the wax museum so we went back to the trailer, had a good sleep and got up early Sunday morning an the rain) to go downtown for the tour. We had our choice of parking. If there was anything we learned from our trip it was to appreciate the past when it was possible to go to Niagara Falls, look at the great wall of gushing water, stroll through the flower gardens, buy an ice cream cone and return home refreshed. Niagara Falls isn't that way anymore. Like so many other things, Niagara Falls is so commercialized it is difficult to get a good view of anything without paying admissiOn to something or other. One lady from Ohio remarked to me, "We used to be able to come to the Falls and enjoy the scenery. Now the only way to see anything is to pay through the nose for your own private peekhole." I don't know what the city of Niagara Falls can do to improve the situation. More and more tourists come, more and more attractions are needed to entertain them, more and more restaurants and sleeping quarters are required to attend to them. As a result, less and less of the natural beauty is available just for the viewing. We'll go back again, I know we will. There is something about Niagara Falls that makes it a fun-spot to visit. We've never been there yet that we have been disappointed. An eminent gynecologist is convinced that guilt plays an important role in convincing many w omen that oral contraceptives cause minor side effects. "Why should women taking estrogen to relieve painful menstruation so rarely complain of side effects?" asks Dr. Robert Kistner rhetorically. The assistant clinical professor at Harvard Medical School and author of the forthcoming book, "The Pill: Facts and Fallacies About Today's Oral Contraceptives," says patients taking estrogen for diseases related to the lining of the womb are also remarkable free of side-effects. "I think that many women who are on the oral contraceptive who do have side effects have these side effects because their subconscious minds tell them they're doing something wrong in avoiding pregnancy," the gynecologist says. "If they take the same pill for painful menstruation they feel they are not doing anything wrong and so they feel fine. We've used estrogen for 25 years for painful menstruation and, amazingly enough, we didn't have any of these complaints." What Dr. Kistner calls "a smattering of ignorance" about the pill also contributes, he believes, to the creation of minor side effects. PAINTING PATIO PIECES Don't miss a day of outdoor summer fun just because your lawn furniture isn't in shape. Painting patio pieces not only beautifies them but protects too. If your lawn furniture is metal, cracks in the paint are open invitations for moisture to sneak in and promote corrosion. Remove the deteriorating paint with a wire brush and sand rusted areas with steel wool. Spot coat these problem areas with a protective anti-corrosive primer-such as a zinc chromate type-then add a top coat of colorful, exterior metal enamel. Unpainted iron or steel furniture must be painted to avoid corrosion. Galvanized steel should receive a coat of special primer-such as zinc dust-zinc oxide-to insure proper adhesion of the enamel topcoat. Allow the primer to dry thoroughly, then apply one or two coats of a good exterior metal enamel. Aluminum furniture, beautiful when new, may develop ugly pitting or become dull when left in an outdoor or a corrosive environment, such as a large industrial area. By using a phosphoric acid cleaner and sanding lightly you can remove the dull film. Wearing rubber gloves during this procedure will protect your skin. Restore the original dazzling appearance by wiping the furniture with mineral spirits to remove dirt and grease. Dry thoroughly, then apply a clear, non-yellowing exterior lacquer. Wood furniture can be attacked by moisture-both from rain and damp ground. Be sure to check the undersides to see if the paint is in good condition. The entire piece should be protected with .a coat of good quality enamel. If you have wood furniture, you may want to retain its natural beauty. If so, a spar or urethane varnish will give a glistening finish that will highlight the grain of wood. By using quality exterior enamels, you can create your own decorating scheme for picnics, patio or poolside. Choose bright, carefree colors that contrast with the outside of your home and add casual, cheery accents to your outdoor recreation areas. Three cheers for the Canadian producers, handlers and retailers, who are providing us with the succulent array of fresh fruits and vegetables now on our tables. July is Salad Month for good reason.

Slice them raw into any combination of greens to add flavour and texture. For variety marinate whole or sliced mushrooms in oil and vinegar or french dressing before adding to the salad.
