Sure, if you happen to be independently wealthy you may have Eggs Benedict sent ue on a silver tray to nibble on as you peruse the day's entries in your social calendar. But for the teem- ing hordes, breakfast is a catch -as -catch -can affair. Out of bed with the blaring beep of an electric alarm, a quick shower, the frenzied hunt for a pair of stockings without a run, another hunt through the closet for some- thing clean and pressed and presentable. Brush the hair, brush the teeth — and if you're lucky, a _few gulps of coffee and a slice of toast. Then the daily freeway bat- tle and an onslaught of papers once you reach your desk. Sound familiar? Ugh! For what most of us most go through during the busy morning hours, a bit of early - morning nutrition is in order. Even if it's your responsi- bility to get the rest of the family out of the door in working order, try to set aside a few minutes for your-. self and down something more substantial than a multi-vitamin and black cof- fee. Dieters often find break- fast the easiest meal to skip, but may find themselves losing steam by the time noon rolls around. And many of us simply don't have (or make) the time to worry about good nutrition in the Fashionable Summer Dresses at hot �lOSiimmerw.Savings % off at Wilson's we carry sizes 10-20 and 141/2.241/2' •Costume jewellery complete selection all colours, . all styles Come & browse Ideal for.

But I am telling you this strange and wonderful secret: we shall not all .die, but we shall all be given new bodies! It will gall happen in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, when the last trum- pet is blown.. For. .therere st from the sky and all the Christians 1 who have died will suddenly be- come alive, with new bodies that will never, never die; and then we who are still alive shall suddenly have new bodies too. 1 Corinthians 15:50-52 Evangelical Fellowship of Canada Fifty-seven countries is- sued 176 different denomina- tions of gold coins during 1980.

They can swim as fast as 15 mph, but nor- mally move at a leisurely 4 mph.
