To salvage stiff old brushes, soaking overnight, preferably in turpentine, is, a well-known preliminary. GasOline is also effective. After the old paint has been scraped off with a blunt knife or r- CRAWFORD & HETHERINGTON Barristers, Solicitors Etc. Wingham, Phone 48 J. H. CRAWFORD, X.C. R. S. HETHERINGTON, X.C.

HEE DELMORE DAUPHIN & GRANT TEENATER But I don't understand it said he bat- ter, I am the teams best ,batter, and am never struck out, It's a cruel thing to know I can never say never again, The ump evinced tokens of sympathy, but he could not reverse his decision, he had never done that. Again he shouted batter up and a big six footer deployed to the plate. This chaps back was of course turned to the ump who could not even glimpse his face or his features, For a few seconds the pit- cher gazed at the batter awestruck and instead of preparing his throw, he held up his hands and ran towards the ninP, He was almost speechless, but man- aged to squeeze out the word "interfer- ence", the ump asked what interfer- ence and the pitcher replied "mous- tache", it interfered, it casts its blasted shadow on the plate, it obscures it. I see it not at all, not an inch of it. Then everyone became aware of the fact that the batter possessed a mous- tache and was then wearing it. It was a colossal affair, at least 18 inches from tip to tip. Interference sustain- ed pronounced the ump„ and then asked what do you propose doing a bout it. Barber, suggested the pitcher, Just as the word 'Barber' issued from the pitcher's lips there material- ized from somewhere or nowhere, I don't know which, a beautiful blonde, she stood with one dainty foot on the plate and divided her attention be- tween the ump and the batter. She looked as brave as she actually was, She screamed the word 'barber'. Nev- er, she continued shall a barber use his accursed scissors, or augment his illgotten fees by perpetrating an out- rage on my boys friend's lip appen- dage, look at it, she cried, is it not wonderful, is it not beautiful, is it not glamourous, is it not intriguing. The boy friend listened and smiled, threw his arm around the girls waist and led her from the field amidst cheers that were again and again renewed. Think of it, a girl's love, that most wonderful thing in all creation had busted a ball game. The game was over, neither players nor fans could take interest in its being carried. Soft- ly and tenderly I bade my minds-eye shut up. Go to sleep baby, I said to it, and without demur it immediately obeyed. TO THE GIMME FAMILY-1931 In those days of "drives" for the general uplift of the human race, the letter of a Detroit business man in response to one plea may strike a re- sponsive note. He says: Gentlemen: I wish to inform you that the present shattered condition of my hank ac- count makes it impossible for me to send my check in response to your request. My present financial condi- tion is due to the effects of the federal laws, state laws, county laws, corpor- ation laws, by-laws, brother-in-laws, mother-in-laws and outlaws that have been foisted upon an unsuspecting public and me. Through these various laws I have been held down, held up, sat on, walked on, flattened, squeezed, and broke, until I do not know what I mu, where I am or why I am, These laws compel me to pay a trier- chant tax, 'capital tax, excess tax,, corporation tax, ga$ tax, light tax, wa- ter tax, cigar tax, school tax, sytax, liquor-tax and carpet tax, In addition to these taxes I am re,. quested and required to contribute to every society and organization that the inventive mind of man can conceive, and organize. To the Society of •St. John, the Baptist, Women's Relief, Navy League, the Children's Home, The Policeman's' Benefit, the Dorcas Society, the YX,C.A,, the Gold Dig- gers' Home, also to every hospital and charitiable institution in town, the Red Cross, the Black Cross, the White Cross, the Purple Cross, the Flaming Cross and the Double Cross. • The government has so governed my business, that I do not know who owns it, I am suspected, expected, inspected, - disregarded, examined, re- examined, informed, required, com- manded and compelled, until all I know is what I am supposed to pro- vide an inexhaustible supply of money ATTENTION Single Girls Between 18-40 Here is your job opportunity for permanent employment.

If the first soaking fails to re- move the paint, the process can be repeated. Shellac brushes should be eloped with alcohol, and whitewash and calcimine brushes with water. After most of the accumulation has been removed, the brush should be Scrubbed in warm water with a' mild laundry soap—never with a strong soap, The excess water should be shaken out and the brush left to dry, The bristles should be straightened out with a scrub brush or comb before completely dry, after which the brush should be wrapped—not too tightly--,, in ,heavy paper or cardboard to keep the' bristles straight. If the brush is dipped in paint before being fully dried, the moisture will make the brush soft and listless. • DR. W. M. CONNELL DR, B. N.

When a brush is being used every day, it should •be. filled with paint,. and wrapped overnight 'in several thicknesses of paper or suspended in a can of water, If used intermittently.. it may be suspended in raw linseed oil or kerosene, If stored in turpentine, the brush is likely to become hard, It• should never be allowed to rest on the ends of the bristles for any length of . time, because it will become warped and the flow,. of paint will be uneven. With a hole at the ensl of the handle, a brush may be suspended in the paint from a rod or stiek across the edgeg“ of the can so that the bristles do not touch he bottom. When put away for' a period of time, the brush should be- cleaned, thoroughly dried, and stored with the bristles straight. FUNERAL AND AMBULANCE SERVICE UP-s;rAms RUNE RAL PARLOUR A. J.
