"In all our married life, I have never been allowed to choose my own clothes he always makes me buy what he likes, When it is any- thing for the house, he has to ask his sisters' opinions first; if they like it, he'll get it, He likes com- pany and we have a lot, I'm con- sidered a good cook and everybody enjoys coming here—but his con- stant nagging spoils everything for me. "Ire is careless with his clothes, throwing them on the floor or hanging them on doorknobs. Then he gripes because I don't keep the house straight! I do keep it straight—until he gets home.

By Anne Ashley Q. How can I clean a light fur? A. Mix 1 pint of flour, 1 table- spoon of fuller's earth, and 1 pint 1 11- 0E bran. Rub into the fur thorough- ly, ly, then shake well, and rub again with bran alone. Shake the fur once more and follow by brushing with a soft clean cloth. Q. How can I stiffen the brush- es of my carpet sweeper? A. Take the brushes out of the sweeper and dip thein several times into hot water, to which a little common baking soda has been added, Then let the brushes dry in the sun. Q. How can I cause the scars from pimples to disappear? A. Bathe the scars with a solu- tion of boracic acid, followed by an application of zinc ointment. Q. How can I shrink dress goods? A. Place the goods folded in a tub of cold water, to which a few handfuls of salt have been added. After a few hours, hang on the line without unfolding. The weight of the salt prevents wrinkles from drying in, . and the salt sets the color. Q. What is a good food for persons suffering from nervous di- seases and rheumatism? A. Celery is excellent.

"He says it's called middle, age since that's where it emally shows in the first piece." UNPAY SCHOOL LLSSO By Rev. 'R. B. Warren, B,A,B.D. Overcoming Temptation Matt. 4:8-11; John 6:15; Rom 13:- 12.14: 1 Cor, 10:12.13. Memory Selection — Blessed is the man that endnreth tempta- tion: for when Ile is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. James 1:12. There is 110 virtue in being good, if one cannot be bad, Hence man in his probation here is confront- ed with good and evil. Indeed lie has in his heart a predisposition to evil inherited from his first parents. But a powerful appeal for 01311 to do the right is made by our Lord Jesus Christ: Man's eternal destiny is determined by the acceptance or rejection of Jesus Christ here. Temptation comes to man through the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye, and the pride of life. These three avenues are illustrated in the temptations of Eve and of Jesus. Eve saw that the fruit was "good for food" "pleasant to the eyes," and "to be desired to make one- wise." Eve yielded. To Jesus came the• temp- tation to turn stones to bread when Ile was hungry, to worship Satan for the kingdoms of the n,,1111 and their glory and to leap in ride from the temple's pinnacle. Jesus resisted the threefold temptation. Then angels cause and nr.nistered to Him. Temptations Come to us rill t0 - day. the appetites of the flesh— hunger, thirst and sex are legiti- mate bot they can be indulged in a sinful fray. Paul exhorts, "Let us walk honestly, as in the clay; not in rioting and drunkenness," Alas, how much of it there ie today. We are urged to put on the Lord Jeetts Christ and make not pro- vision for the flesh. tc, coffin its lusts. Becoming a Christian does not eliminate temptation. Who suffer- ed mare than Job? But he vowed, "When Ide hath tried mc, 1 shall come forth as gold." Job 23:10. Sometimes the proving seems more than 0(1e can bear. It is well then; to remember that our tempta- tion is not unique but is common to man. "God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye arc able: but will with the temptation also make a way of escape that ye may be able to bear it." Christian, endure. Tee Lord has a crown of life for you. faIVLGWtae¢az Beginners, look! This star -square is easy!. You'll be thrilled at how quickly you memorize it, how quickly you become expert.

Later there were sounds of trucks in low gear — presumably a tow -truck pulling the other fel- low ou to the road. So there was plenty of noise for half -an -hour or so, but in the city where there is noise all the time, what 2 heard would probably never have been noticed at all, Bot maybe we had better get ourselves used to noise because pretty soon there will be lots of it. You see we are right on a partly constructed highway and the equipment has -already been as- sembled for a paving job- Apparent- ly the surface is to 1)e what is known as "hot -Mix." Hot mix oe cold mix, or anything else they like to call it is all right withus just so long as we get a highway that is free of dust, dips and hol- lows — which is what we have had for about twenty years" even though this stretch of road has been officially - known for that length of time as Highway No, 25. Believe nee, however great the noise, it is noisc that will be most welcome. \yell, the year is surely speeding away into the limbo of forgotten yesterdays. Wonder why time pas- ses so much quicker as we get older? Steens just as if we were travelling in a high-speed vehicle, minus the brakes. And it is such re pity to have these lovely trays go hurrying by — frosty morning's, bright sunny days — so different front the weather that was handed out during the time the ploughing. `match was in progress at Alliston, You would think when so much depended on him the weatherman u•olld be a little more co-operative. Bob was there on the Thursday and he said it rained nearly alt the time — and that was one day it was fire down here and we were think' ing happily that he had struck a good day. \Vhen Bob spoke of going to the Ploughing Match 1 happened to say that that was one event I had never yet been to see. Bob told Inc f wouldn't find anything there that would interest me. 1 wonder? Seems to me whenever a large number of people get together in one place there is bound to be something interesting ail t1(1 fine, Maybe Sone of you ladies who do go to the big ploughing matches plight like to tell inc if 1 and missing out on something worth- while, It would be nice to get a hew highlights from a woman's point of ,view.

With our fast moving cars distance is no obstacle. Most places are accessible with a few hours driving. And with hydro and milking mach- ines on so matey farms it doesn't take two or three hours to get the chores done before and after the trip. Certainly there is less help 041 farms now than at any time in history — on the other hand less help is needed. But 1 generalize too much. Because we live in a well -populated district, where pro- bably 90% of the farmers have hydro power and can thus make use of tabour - saving convenien- ces, I and afraid I sometimes for- get that other more isolated dis- tricts still depend on hand power for most of their work, and coat - oil lamps and lanterns as the only means of illumination to lighten their darkness.

Or if your electric washer refuses to, function you feel it is a major tragedy to finish your washing by hand', And now the hydro rate Inas gone up—so what?

"Plum Pudding" Theory Of, How World Began A year ago Nobel lain -tate Dr, Harold G, Urey advanced the hypo- thesis before the National Academy of Sciences that the newborn cartel was a plural -pudding mi'xturc of iron -nickel alloys and' stony stuff. Iron -nicker alloys sank to fora) the dense core of the 'earth, tiie stony materials rose to form the outer Payers. At a recent meeting of the academy Tte developed tiiis thesis. Evidence that the earth was origi- nally a sort•of plum pudding comes Irons studies of the structure of Mars, which is stilt thought to he a mixture of metal and rocks, without an iron core. Stony meteorites are such mixtures. The sinking iron gore of the earth tends lo speed up the natation of the earth, an effect which, says Dr, Urey, is more than overcome by the braking action of tidal friction. Without assuming the acceieration caused by tine sinking core and the slowing down caused by tidal fric- tion, certain acceterations of the 01111 and 1110011 i11 their orbits can- not he satisfactorily explained. If. T)r. limy is right, the study of earthquake waves indicates that the earth has not yet completely scp- arated into an iron core and a stony crust.
