Schwab, who occupied the estate adjoining the steel magnate's, one afternoon approached the latter and tried to sell him a cow. "I've got a cow I want to sell you Charlie,' he said. "Yes? Would she fit into My Guernsey herd?" "No, I dunno as She would." "Lias she got anything to re- commend her?" "Well, I donna as the has." "Does she give lots of milk?" "No. I can't say as she gives lots of milk, but Charlie, I can tell you this: She's a kind, gentle, good-natured old cow, and if she's got any mills she'll give it to you:' Praise The praises of others may be of " use in teaching us, not what we are, but what we ought to be.—Hare. Praise, like gold anddiamonds,. owes its value, to its scarcity. It becomes cheap as it :becomes vul- gar, alai will no longer raise ex pectation or animate.: enterprise. —Samuel Johnson, As the Greek said, many men know how to flatter; few know to praise.—Wendell Phillips. It difficult to say whichmay be most mischievous to the hu- man heart, the praise or the dis- praise of men. —Mary Baker Eddy. It takes a -great deal of grace to be able tb bear praise. Cen- suee :seldom dons us much, hurt. • —Spurgeon. ' Think not those faithful who praise all thy words and actions, but those who kindly reprove thy faults,—Socrates.

The discoveries open a new way to measure all the. metallic ele- intents whch are essential to man, and which are mostly unassayed as yet in teams of health. • FROZEN SLEEP MENTAL CURE' So•called frozen sleep, the hmnan ,hibernation which was first de- veloped for cancer two years ago, now is helping to cure severe eases of schizophrenia, or split personal. ity, the commonest form of mensal trouble. a —d— PREVENTS ADHESIONS Discovery of a preventive treat- ment for abdominiti adhesions with the new chemical compound, hep- arin, was reported to the 'Virginia Academy of Science last week. Adhesions, by which intestines grow fast to other organs, have Breen a serious canes of major ab- dominal operations, and there has been no satisfactory remedy. Heparin prevents clotting not only of blood, but of the water white substance left atter the red • corpuscles are taken out. It is this watery substance which starts the abdominal adhesions: How Can !? i BY ANNE ASHLEY Q. Hose can I bleach a faded dress entirely white? A.

Then scrub well with soap and water. Q. How "can I add lustre to dry hair? A. Try shampooing regularly every ten days or two weeks with Ie tar soap. 71/2 Billions Of Cigarets Sold in Canada in 1939; Would Girdle Earth Ten Times If all the cigarettes Cana - diens bought during 1939 were laid end to end they would cover the circumference of the earth more than 10 times, it is estimated on the basis of figures released by the Department of. Mines and Resources. The department announced that during that year cigarette" sales amounted to 7,571,800,000. That many cigarettes 2% inches long would make 13 circuits of the 25,000 -mile circumference of the earth. Total value of tobacco mama- . fabtur'ed in Canada was $90,600,- pp00, with 165,700,000 cigars and 34,400,000o n p u ds of other to- Teace° sold in addition to the cigar- ette. Total 1939 tobacco crop was, 107,700,000' pounds of which 32,- 00,000 pounds was exported. Stars Break Into Tins And Triplets Stars are constantly splitting into twins and triplets, and com- bining as a result of cosmic traf- fic' accidents, the American Physi- cal Society was told last week, Dr. Ross Gunn of the U.S. Na- val Research Laboratory told the society how some stars approach too close to each other-rseveral million miles or more—and cause explosions within the star system with two or more stars being cre- ated by a process of fission or division. They may also crash into each other and farm a new stag Such cosmic traffic accidents do not happen more than once in millions of years Dr. Gunn said. Save Bones And Help Win War Householders who save bones for the national salvage campaign are contributing directly to wine ning the war bydecreasing the import of bone products and help- ing to conserve foreign exchange,' the department of national war services said last week. Canada exports between 60,000. and 70,000 hundredweight of bones a year yet there are glue factories which cannot obtain enough raw materials — bones — to operate on a full-time basis, the report said. A net loss of foreign exchange in transactions of exporting bones and importing bone products has been the result.

Once es- tablished in a garden, it makes no demands, and unknown to the gardener it will performa service which is hard to measure in dol- lags and cents. It' just digs in under a large rock or finds a shady retreat under a board rest - lug in some cool part of the gar- den. It works during the plant growing season and hibernates somewhere out of reach of cold at the beginning of fall to return again when the bluebirds and robins make their appearance. Cutworms and flying insects of the night are the ideal food for toads. Based on the consumption of cutworms al ;ne it is estimated that one toad will consume in a single , season, Imre entwornts than could be killed with ti'renty dollars' worth of poison. House pets generally play havoc with the garden and should be kept out of it. Gardeners who do not own dogs are often both- . ered oth•eyed with the unleashed pets of others. Fortunately they can be kept away. Dogs detest the odor of nicotine and will not come near it. Spraying the lower branches of trees and shrubs as well as plants near entrance walks with a diluted solution of nicotine will have the desired "effect. Canadian National Railways Revenues The gross revenues of the all- inclusive Canadian. Nsitional Rail- ways System for the week ending May 7th, 1941 were $5,754,296 as compared with $4,568,748 for the corresponding period of 1940, an increase of $1,185,548 or 25.9%. Qu bee, Ontario Pupils. Exchange 100 Children •Expected to Make' Language -Study Visits This Year Children of English and French - sneaking families are going to ex- change visits this summer. It is expected that at least 100, aver- aging about 17 years old, will par- ticipate in the scheme, sponsored by an .organization called "Visitos Interproyin ciales." The plan gives the youngsters a chance to learn each other's language. INTERPROVINCIAL VISITS Six years ago 3. Ti. Biggar, a master at Upper Canada college, established a clearing house through which families could ar- range exchange visits or visits as paying guests. There were only three the. first season, but the idea has been growing ever since. In January, 1940, "Visites hater provinciales" was formed. Recently the .Ontario depart- ment of education has called the . attention of high school principals to' the 1 e p an. The Quebec govern- ment has made a grant. • Rabbit fur is especially useful for making cheep trimmings and collars for coats because it takes dye easily.

Not long ago a jury went out early in the day on a simple case, and when it cane near the time for court to adjourn, his Honor sent for the jury, and asked the foreman if they required any fur. titer instruction. "We need no instruction, your Honor," replied the foreman "but there are eleven pig-headed men who won't agree to anything." Future Wars Check Sought Canadian Psychiatrist Urges organization to Prevent Re- current Battles Au organization to be started now to prevent future wars was m proposed to he American ri can Psychism the Association in convention at Richmond, Va., by its retiring president, Dr. George IL Steven- son of Toronto. "If," he said, "events are left only to political leaders and to the emotional reactions of the leaders and the led, you and I know that in 1905, or some such years, the babies our bolieagues are now ushering into the world will suffer and die by the millions in another fratricidal war.

W]CLL WORTH TRYING/ i Loss to London Free Italians in London are mourning their first casualty of the war. He was Fortunate Picchi, 47 -year-old former as- sistant banqueting manager of the Savoy Hotel, London. The Ito bans have ate announced that Picchi, who bad bowed most European and American celebri- ties to their seats at the Savoy, was shot in home an Palm Sun- day. He was taken prisoner with the British "paratroops" who were landed in southern Italy two Months ago. He was apparently recognized and denounced after the British "paratroops" had comm matted acts of war sabotage in the Calabrian region. Picchi so thoroughly disapproved of the Fascist regime in Italy that he chose to die fighting his own country rather than keep a job that was sometimes worth. $200 a week to him. Wood -burning Brooder Stoves They've Been Proved Much Cheaper to Operate, Just As Efficient as Other Types ,Test what le the best type of brooding equipment foi outlying districts has always been .an open question. IOlectricity is not avail- able, oil is too expensive, hind coal is difficult to obtain and ex, pensive to use, At the Dominion Experimental Station at Normandin, Rue„ wood burning Jbrooder stoves have been ;tried out with satisfaction and a comparison made with coal burn-. ing brooder stoves on the basis of IRO prices ruling in that section. The fuels used were chestnut size anthracite coat valued at $20.00 per ton and Birch wood costing $6.00 per standard cord, says George Hodgson, Poultry Division, Central Experimental Farm, Ot- to wa. , ONE-TI-IfRD THE COST lender the conditions and equip- ment used in the experiment there . was found to be a wide margin of spread in the comparative cost o1 using these two fuels. The trial was conducted over a period of approximately 67 days, from April 8 to Juno 15, inclusive, The coal was used in a regulation coal burning brooder stove having a 500 chick capacity. The wood was us- ed in a common type of wood - burning brooder stove also supply- ing heat to a 500 chick capacity brooder. Both stoves were found to be very satisfactory for brood- ing purposes and the labour in- volved in their operation ivas judg- ed to be about the same. No dif- ficulty eves experienced in main- tainingh the desired uniform tem- peratures in either case. After a little practice in airing the wood strove no rouble was reported ie. keeping the fire going during the night. It was also noted that the wood -burning stove would respond almost immediately to draft ad. jnstments. This made it especially valuable towards the end of the brooding season. The test indicated that the -wood- burning brooder stove in compare, son with the coal -burner was equal- ly simple of operation, fully as efficient and wse operated with al- most one third the fuel cost. •s+-.r•-...-%-.-..w.a-rso.-o-s�-a-e-ro.
