In 1047 a Dane IMMO, Gabs claimed that he had the power to prophesy earthquakes, He forecast in March of that year that an earthquake would take place in Japan on a certain date in April. He was right, It did. Asked how he knew, he replied: "'That's my secret." The most disastrous earth- quake on record took place in India about 210 years ago, More than 300,000 people were killed. When the whole of Britain was shaken by an earthquake in the seventeenth century, a quack doctor in the West of England sold pills to country people which he said were "very good against earthquakes," An American schooner in 1892 encountered shoals of dead fish, extending fOr five miles, not far from the Californian coast. Sci- entists said the phenomenon was due to a submarine earthquake. • After the great Messina earth- quake of 1908, which claimed 70,000 victims, a man was en- tombed for thirty-seven days, but was rescued alive. He owed his survival to the fact that a confectioner's shop had collapsed over him and he had lived on the contents. A statistician who made a cat- alogue of 160,000 earthquakes found there were two main lines of weakness in the earth's crust. One runs through the Mediter- ranean and across the Himalayas. The other circles the Pacific. When an earthquake struck Lisbon in 1755 the initial shock lasted only five seconds, but proved fatal to 60,000 people. Scientist Sir George Dance declared that earthquakes could, probably be prevented. "Volcan- oes now extinct should be opened and cleared ..(by means of explo- sives) of the accumulated rocks which now close them up," he suggested. "Then, by means of these man-made safety valves, I.. believe earthquakes, would be prevented," KEEP GOING There is 'no great trouble or work involved in having a clean, well growing garden if one spends a little time on the job now weeds are small and easily destroyed, The soil is moist and quickly „cultivated. Thinning and transplanting are done with a minimum, of worry and effort.. A few minutes with cultivator or spade at this season of the year will save hours later on, With both flowers and vege- tables, the best plan is to have the bed thoroughly cultivated or dug before any planting is done and the soil worked up to the finest possible tilth. In early spring this is soon done and par- ticularly before the seeds are sown and have started to sprout. After, this thorough preparation it is a comparatively simple mat- ter to run over the whole plot or bed once a week with a light cultivator and this routine will keep the gaKden flouriahing. THE NEW HOME There is'a lot to be done when one moves into a brand new house but still it is possible to have a good garden and have it this season too. Even those who rent and move every few years can also have an excellent garden. In these cases; of course, We rely on annual flowers rather than perennials which, must get established. And it is amazing what can be done with annuals ' exclusively. We can eget vines that will cover a porch -in a matter of weeks, things like scar- let runner beans or the modern and vastly improved morning glories. Or we can' use window boxes filled with trailing nas- ,turtiums, and semi-trailing pe- tunias, marigolds and zinnias. In the place of permanent shrubbery, we use big quick growing bushy annuals like cos- mos, 'giant marigolds and zinnias, delphinium, ornamental sunflow- er or tithoriia. Annual flowers, it shoold he remembered, come in all shapes, cOlours and sizes. All these particulars are listed in any good. Canadian seed cata- logue and a.little StUdy will give ,you,almost anything to fit your own special likes and location. MOST FROM A LITTLE One of the great advantages, '`of .gardening is its adaptability) Unlike a lot of other recrea- tions it can be fitted to, any individual requirements. Take size, SO far as pleasure and in- terest are 'concerned it doesn't make' a great deal of difference whether. we are gardening ten -acres or ten square, feet. We can even - get a lot of fun out of a window, box and many enthusi asts really do. If space is limited we simply make a more intens- ive garden. • • Of course, with 'only a small backyard to .work in, we will not try and grow all• the family needs in potatoes, pumpkins, or corn. These vegetables are a bit bulky.' Btit it• is really amazing how many fine meals of beans, carrots, lettuce, beets, tomatoes and other compact growing vege-' tables one' can take from a few royvi only a dozen feet long. By Anne Ashley Q. How can. I sweeten cream that has turned? A. Cream ;that has turned • slightly may be sweetened and used for coffee without curd- ling, or tasting sour, if a very small quantity of baking soda is added to it. Q. How can I remove rust spots? A. A remedy that seldom fails to remove rust spots is lemon juice and salt rubbed on the stains; then place the article in the sun. Q. How Can I decipher faded inscriptions 'and dates on coins? A. Heat 't);.iem and gradually the inscriptions will, unless en- tirely effaced, make their ar ; pearance. ' Q. How ,can I keep the skin of lemons from hardening? A, Place lemons in water un- til they are wanted for use. The skin will not only be kept from. hardening, but the flavor will be improved. Q. Hew Can I mend scratches on •kid pumps? - A.

World's Strangest Shoe-Repair Shop To find the Worici's strangest shoe-repairing shopTM you would have to go to Denmark. There, In Copenhagen, fifteen years ago, Hans Christiansen, a retired businessman, saw a salvage col- lector separating a pair of old shoes from other refuse in a dustbin. He was told that all old shoes were separated to be burnt. Christiansen offered to buy the shoes and any other pairs found In refuse. Although he had never mended shoes in his life, he tried his hand at the job and found he could sell the repaired shoes cheaply. Then, on a wet day, he saw a small girl, wearing a very bad pair of shoes. He gave her a bet- ter pair from his stock. After' that, he gave away all the shoes he repaired—to people in need of them. His• cobbling pastime got busier. The little girl he had first helped came, to' help him —and brought her friends. Soon this unique workshop was a small after-school "repair factory," and by now over 10,000 pairs of- shoes have been mend- ed by children and given to the, Salvation Army, churches• and hospitals. Nearly fifty school- girls regularly work there. Over sixty when he started his shoe workshop, Christiansen is • now nearly eighty. A late age to be reared in such limited space:? He learns that nearly all the male inhabitants were fishermen' who had fashioned,. fitted, and rigged their vessels for genera-. tiops. W.hen they, set foot on shore they knew quite well what they required for dwellings, what was absolutely essential and what. must be „dispensed with, accustomed as they were to living months on end in quar- ters exactly suited to their re: quirements, with not a foot to spare. And on Mykonos, too, both di- mension and design were deter- mined by the frugality of the islanders' lives• and the building materials available. For, because this bleak little island could nourish almost no timber-pro- ducing trees, other than' olives, fruits, tough Mediterranean cedars and stunted pines, no house requiring wooden rafters could exceed a 12-by-18 mea- surement. • And yet this, is hard to be- lieve; the massive appearance of each dwelling or oratory puts these figures to the lie. The thick walls, the best defense against heat and the fury of the wind, the heavy tiled roofs, the gigantic outside staircases, the broad openwork pigeon cotes magnified by their proportions by the milky whiteness of their sur- faces, and by the perfection of their lines, writes Elaine. Westall Gould in The Christian Science Monitor. This whiteness, almost unbe- lievable yet utterly natural seen, against a background of foarn- capped waves, must be one of the secrets. ,The fishermen, all masons by tradition, raised their, houses by hand, each according to his own personal notions, but according to tradition, too, since, the modest needs of searnen have changed very 'little over the centuries. And because they are proud , of their handiwork, 'the houses are whitewashed every week with lime made from powdered shards brought from the ruins of Delos. Thus, ascending one of the The man who likes to make furniture, or models, or dreams of a small house raised by his own hands, would have the time of his life' if he could visit the Greek island of Mykonos. For here every householder — or his father designed and built his own dwelling, every piece of furniture in it, the attached family chapel, and — if a towns: • man — a .country house besides. Furthermore, the younger gene- ration is following the same pro- gram, as the young people of the island grow up, marry, and need homes of their own. Of course, homebuilding be- gan like this, and many primi- tive people still put together their own houses. But here on this eight-mile strip of granite, halfway between Greece and. Turkey, some of the lost beauty ,of the ruined temples of Delos nearby may have come to rest, and some of the craftsmanship, too. Anyone, no matter what his income and possessions, would be proud to own one of these miniature' mansions, for each one is a work of art and a su- perior design for living. Yet to a stranger,- this is not at once apparent. Passing up- ward from the jetty he notes what is almost an absence of architecture in the clustered houses. They seem to have sprung up of themselves, follow- ing no street line, no plan or pat- tern, oftentimes coming to- gether like old companions to a chosen spot. The stone-paved ways are full of surprises; a tiny square with a well and a blooming jacaran- da; carved wooden balconies crossing from roof to roof, trail- ling vines; a relic from Delos set into the plaster.
