He says that giving way to temper is bad for us, a kind of "slow poison" which, causes ill- health. "Keep your temper," he advises. "It's something nobody can afford to lose.. Remember that half the trouble in some . folk's lives is traceable to an uneven temper." Most people, when they are becoming annoyed, contract their chests and hunch their shoulders, he points out. If they squared their shoulders instead„ they would find it much more diffi- cult to be bad-tempered. "People who think that on un- failing good temper is a sign of weakness are quite wrong," he adds. "It is a sign of a mind at peace With itself, a mind that knows the power of goodwill, kindness,and toerance." Good tmper makes for a hap- py marriage. Realizing this, a young bachelor who became in- fatuated with a girl he thought would find out if she were good- tempered before he proposed. So he took her for a walk in his parents' large garden in the winter and led her deliberately under the branch of a tree load- ed with snow, which he deftly shook over the new hat she was wearing. "She took it in such good part that I felt I was on sure ground in choosing het as a partner for life," he said. The test held good, for they enjoyed sixty years of married happiness. "To be beautiful, guard against temper. The sow] or frown re- sulting from a temper or habit- ual grumbling gives a perpetual forbidding expression which is ugly," says a London beauty ex- pert. "Bad temper and irrita- bility cause wrinkleS. It also upsets sleep and a muses indiges Con." How can you get rid of a bad temper? Physical exercise is good, say the experts. Some liousewives work it off bang- in g brooms arid slarriming doors. but a Scots Woman had A better method. Whenever she' felt short-tempered she took a stroll In her garden.

Yet prices of many of •the proreesed foods they buy have been climbing right over the lop of the rush register, One reason is that the • busy housewife — often holding down. an extra job- intends to buy more and morn foods already ,prepared, At a price, It is unlikely this trend will be reversed, For • before the back-tracking went very far a great many women 'would have to shift from office or shop to. .kitchen. One reason there has been no greater consumer revolt against steadily rising prices is that many 'consumer incomes have 4190 risen. And one ever, looked source of this rise .has• been the money working women have added to family income. • In the years from 1047 to 1950 • the employment statistics show a gain of 20 per cent in the pea- portion of married women un- der 05 going to work outside the home, But the big gain bas been one of 50 per cent among women above that age, These figures hold the secret of a very large addition to family incomes which in other periods have been limit- ed earnings. But this trend must be nearing an upward limit. Those who think prices can continue to be pushed up might well take notice: Not only are housewives displeaSed; there is not an inexehaustible number of women who could add to fam- ily income by taking jobs. When women can't earn more they will be slow to spend more. — From The Christian Science Monitor, When Grace Dalrymple arriv- ed in London after being edu- cated in a French convent, the young men about town were soon swarming round, seeking her favours. No wonder! Grace was barely seventeen, she was tall, she had beautiful features and a wonderfully proportioned figure. And yet, all through her Bret season in town, the most per- sistent and rewarded suitor was a man nearly twice her age and far from handsome. Ve was John Eliot, a prosperous physician, whose money brought him suc- cess with the ladies. In those eighteenth-century days it was common enough for girls to have their husbands picked out for them by rela- tives, so when Hugh Dalrymple told his daughter to marry Eliot she raised no objection. To please his wife the moved from his house in the parish of St. Clement Danes to a villa in fashionable Knights- bridge. Then Hugh Dalrymple died and Grace began to step out. The doctor began to hear tales about his wife and became sus- picious; when he was away from home he ordered his valet, Will Constable, to follow her. One day Grace said she was going to visit a girl friend, had her maid call a hackney car- riage and drove into London. Will trotted along on foot be- hind the carriage, all the way to Maiden Lane, near Covent Garden. There Grace dismissed the carriage and walked through one on the courts into the Strand, the faithful Will dogging her footsteps. In the Strand a carriage was waiting. Inside, Will recognized a young Irish peer, Viscount Val- entia. Grace stepped into the Carriage, which drove off •at once," followed all the way by Will, until it reached a house in.Berkeley Row, where it stop- ped. Watched by the breathless Will, the couple entered 'the house. They did not leave until late evening. Acting on the evi- dence collected by Will Consta- ble, the doctor 'divorced Grace. Viscount Valentia was a mar- ried man, but even if he had not been, it is very unlikely that he would have married her. However, early the following year she appeared to have trans- ferred her affection to Lord Cholmondeley, a bachelor, known because of his physical strength as Ili& "Athletic Peer." Grace's delight at being a free woman was damped when shortly after her divorce her ex - husband was granted a knighthood! She may have had visions of becoming a peeresss, but her bachelor friend, although he en- tertained her magnificently; showed no desire for marriage. The affair lasted three and a half years, during Which Grate was painted by Gainsboreugh, the fashionable artist. Then came news of her entry into the aristocratic world of Peels. The Due de Chartres of- fered her a 'home and she ac- cepted, For two years Grace was hap:. py in PariS, and then Loird ChohnondeleY arrived, She had a row with the French noble- Man and left for London and WAS Soon back again with the English peer. But a few weeks later she met the young Prince of Wales, Seri of George III, Her affair with hirri was conducted.

Later, Grace learned that her own life was in danger and Went to her IICA'ie in Paris where she played a part in saving the life of the Marquis de Clumpeernetz who was governor of the Tuil- eries, where the King and Queen fled for protection. When the whole of the guard was massacred, the governor crawled through a window of the palace and hid among a pile of dead in the gardens. Then, dis- guised in a guardsman's coat, he made his way to the British Embassy; they dared not hide him, but they directed him in Grace's house. The National Guard had be- gun house-to-house searches, looking for "aristocrats" for the Grace had to think quickly. She took the Marquis to her bedroom. Her bed was in an alcove; by rearranging two mat- tresses a space was made under them by the side of the wall, into which the Marquis was able to crawl, When he was safely hidden, Grace got into bed. Hardly had she done so when the guards arrived for a routine search. At first Grace appeared fright- ened when they ordered her to get up and accompany them while they searched the pre- mises. Then she agreed, but said that they must be hungry and thirsty, so she sent her servants for wine, cognac, cold game and pies. When the meal was finished, the men thanked her and left in A peace. At last the half-suffocated Marquis could be released. A few days later Grace organized his escape to England. But her own arrest soon followed. After the revolution, Daily went to London. Her daughter, now sixteen, was still living with Lord Cholmondeley, who had married. Wherever the exile went she found doors closed against her. It was twelve years since she had last been in Lon- don and she was almost alegena. She decided not to intrude in her daughter's life but to return to France, but she was arrested at Calais as an English spy. She was soon released, but from then onwards nothing is• known of her, His Initials Weren't. Funny What does a sensitive ...young man do when he finds that his initials, M. U. G., have become a source of embarrassment to him in his business and private life? An American living in New York got out of this dilemma recently by dropping his 'middle initial, U. People wno have found their initials ,made C.A.T., C.A.D., F.O.O.L., N.A.R.K., T.U.B.„ and scores of other such combina- tions have in the past also dropped a Christian name rather then endure the smiles and puns of friends and relatives. The Yorkshireman who gave up the middle name, Oliver, and so changed his initials from C.O.D. to C:D., has never had .reason le regret doing so. That brilliant composer, the late 'Sir Arthur Sullivan had to put up with a lot of cheap chaff when he was a lad because his parents rather unwisely gave him the forenames Arthur Bey- .mour, making his initials A.S.S. Sullivan stopped these jibes after a time by dropping' his centre name. Another man, a Londoner, had so AGENIS. WANTg0 GO INTO avenges for yourself.

DIGGING HIS FORTUNE—Thomas Watson, 19, shovels his way to a small fortune in New York in the payoff of one of the oddest big prize contests of the year. Watson, a farm ' machinery draftsman, was allotted five minutes in which to shovel as many silver dollars as he could from a seven-and-a- half-ton pile totaing $250,000. First prize winner in a pro-, motion contest sponsored by a soft drink company, Watson shoveled his way to $37,500. Hid The Marquis Under A Mattress the gossip writers began to talk about her as "Daily (a corrup- tion of Dalrymple) the Tall." The affair seemed about to peter out, when Grace told her aristocratic friend thab he would be the father of the child she was expecting. He made no at- tempt to deny responsibility. The child, a daughter, was christen- ed at St. IVIarylebone' Church, where her names are entered as Georgina Augusta Fredricka, daughter of His Royal Highness, George, Prince of Wales. In later years this child became known as Miss Seymour, who married Lord Charles William Bentinck, a son of the third Duke of Port- land. After the baby's birth, Daily spent half the time in London and half in Paris. She had an annuity of £200 given her by Dr. Eliot at the time of her divorce, and she apears to have been a great success in both ca- pitals. After four years of that kind of life, however, Grace fell in again ;with Lord Cholmcndeley, who promised to be a father to little Georgina, but very soon Grace left Cholmondeley "hold- ing the baby" while she returned to Paris. There she again met the Duc de Chartres. A few years later the 'World' newspaper in London published a story saying that Mrs. Eliot was in "the most deplorable state of poverty in France." What happened was that Grace had been caught up in the French Re,volution. She kept a diary of the Revolution, which has 'often been attacked because of alleged inaccuracies but re- garded by ,many good judges as a valuable historical docu- ment. Long after her death, Lady Charles Bentinck's• daughter, the grand-daughter of "Daily the Tall;" sold the manuscript to a >firm and it was published. It is full of the most amusing anec- dotes of Grace's life in and out of prison during the French Re- volution.
