If we could only leave it like that! Un- fortunately, we have to offset the compliment by talking about open pores, blackheads and greasiness! Immaculate cleanliness is the rem- edy for em-edy'for the conditions that cause brunettes so much trouble and heart- ache, Morning and night, wash your- self thoroughly with tepid water and gentle palmolive soap, which is equally good for coarse and sensitive skins. Rinse with cold water, dry carefully, then pat the skin with a pad of cottonwool dipped in a mild astringent lotion, using an upward and outward movement. You can use a cleansing cream, too, of course—I suggest three -purpose cream. If you are troubled with spots, try this several mornings each week for a few weeks: take a dash of health salts in a glass of water. This will help to tone up the system. Now a little advice about make-up, Use a powder shade that exactly suits your skin; (My new Beauty Care booklet tells you how to find out the correct shade to suit you). You can afford to be a little lavish with lipstick, too. Let your eyelids shine; smear them with a spot of vaseline before applying eye -shadow. If you use the new "six minute make-up" method, with three -purpose cream, and powder, rouge and lip. stick to match, you will certainly simplify your make-up whilst at the same time miproving your appear- ance. Write to me for confidential beau- ty advice and copy of my interesting new booklet "Beauty Care," enclosing four one -cent stamps, pleas.

A more apt title would be "chain -store miracle man," for he maintains year-round offices in nine cities and towns in Eastern Canada and takes on a few more during the summer, Some 2,000 'persons flock to him each week for "healing" and another 1500 write for advice. He gets to them regularly by ear and train and largely by plane, Desfosses incidentally makes mir- acnes pay. He earns between $75,000 and $100,000 a year, all of it in "gifts," What does he do? Say you've been ill for months and you're ready to try anything. Then you hear of Desfosses either through a friend or one of his own circulars.. "He's wonderful," you're told, "why he cured. " You've nothing to lose, so you go to see Desfosses, There are a couple of hundred other health -seekers 'ahead of you and you have to wait your turn—maybe six hours. Finally a familiar number is called. It's your number and your turn. Cou enter a luxurious office and there he is ---a young man 30 years of age and short—five foot one, :Weighs about 150 pounds, is dark, with brown hair, a moustache and 'green eyes that glance at you and when he smiles the gold rims of his teeth glitter. If you're French speak - ting you have no trouble understand- ing him; if English-speaking the conversation is one-sided. His Eng- lish is limited. You begin to tell Desfosses what's 'ailing you. The chances are he asks no questions but harmless ones like, "You eat well? You sleep well?" You attempt to tell him more but he breaks in saying, "I will do htat for you. Come back in two weeks." That is all. Your first interview is over, ;and if you come back in two weeks, 'or four, or six you get the same Answer, "I will do that for you." Do what? That's something . even Desfosses ^won't tell. He gives no medicine. He can't for he's no doctor. No prayer -- he's not a priest. He waves no stick nor mumbles magic words. But if you're like thousands who claim he's cured them, you merely say, "I don't know what he has, but he has some- thing." Desfosses finds it pays to be mys- terious. He does not contradict those who say he is. He claims to be " a seventh son of a seventh son" and as J. lie te (Monthly 'tate ents We can save you money on .Bill and Charge Forms, standard sizes to fit Ledgers, white or colors.

And 'since he does nothing you can put your finger Q11, he doesn't'put himself on the spot. It all began in his boyhood at Cap de la Madeleine, a small village in 4juebec where his grandfather had achieved fame in faith -healing pass- ed down by his forefathers frotn France. Young Desfosses showed an early aptitude for business, and by .the time he was 16, he had an office in. Three Rivers, Quebec. In a few years he had a large mail-order trade in "curing". He: claims the large to- tal of 75,000 letters a year and em- ploys a dozen stenographers who do nothing but type stock replies. He seldom signs any replies himself. At times he writes that he cannot do anything for them until he has "more details." There are plenty of cases of men and women traveling hund- reds of miles to provide those details all in a two -minute interview. He never calls his visitors "pa- tients." They are customers or clients but in spite of this precaution—and the fact that he sees only one at a !time to avoid investigators—he has had tiffs with the College of 'Physic- ians and Surgeons who have won three court cases against him, with a $50 fine attached. The publicity only helps him. If you ask Desfosses for advice— what you should eat, or whether you should continue taking medicine—ho doesn't commit himself, since he'd be running against the law. He says simply: "Do what you want." This satisfies most customers. Farmers and other customers save their nickels so they can take a "gift' though Desfosses never asks for any- thing directly, because of the law. But 'if a customer asks him how much money he wants, he offers to sell a copy of the book on his witchcraft trial—in French—for $16. The av- erage case, he says, requires 16 vis- its. Hence clients leave a minimum of $1 a visit. . Desfosses stuffs the money in his pockets •a she receives it, until they bulge and he has to empty them. In 120 minutes I saw eleven customers give him a total of $50 and that was considered average. Nor is the cash his only` source of revenue. Gifts jack his yearly earnings to well over the $75,000 mark. His home, for ex- ample, is one of the most sumptuous in Sherbrooke, and was a gift Wheat As Cattle Feed— With reference to the increased public interest in the feeding of cattle for next year's beef supply and the occurrence of a record grain crop, wheat is primarily a fattening feed and can therefore be used for beef cattle. With legume hay for roughage, wheat may be fed .gener- ously. For fattening market cattle, it is safer to feed it mixed with grains of a bulky nature, Oats are particularly suitable for feeding with wheat. It is advisable to include a high percentage fo oats at the begin- ning of the feeding period and grad- ually increase the proportion and amount of wheat or other heavy grains as the period advances, Wheat should be roiled or coarsely ground for cattle. Beef cows which are being wintered on roughage of low quality require some grain feed frequently. A small allowance of wheat in com- bination with oats or chaffed rougage will give good results, says–the War- time Production Pamphlet No. 60, "Wheat as a Feed for Live Stock." I once heard my father say to a man who was abusing the notion of life insurance in general: "What are you talking about? You couldn't get any life insurance anyhow!" "Why not?" said.the roan. "Because you have cirrhosis of the liver. No company would take you." This worried the, man, and he call- ed on my father a few days later to see if my father had meant what he said. "Well, let us go over to the medic- al examiner and have him look you over and see," said my father, and they both went. The medical examines' found the Man's liver was in excellent condi- tion, and this so pleased the than that he leo my father write him up for a $10,000 policy. The nian insisted that the joke was on my father. He lapped niy father on the back and shouted: "You see! You were Wrong!" And of course my father had to admit that he was.—"Selling.'

Through the bushland and across the muskeg and rivers the road now ex- tends for hundreds of miles. A typical ferry used by the army's engineers is shown in this photo.

The rental administration of the Wartime Prices and Tracie Board agreed with them so far as rents were concerned. The cabin, upper left, was rented at $5 a piece to three men. This was cut to 04 for the trio. The one on the top right was unoccupied but the rent was reduced by more than half. The little low shack. •lower left, was rented at $5 a month which was cut to $2,50. The other two rented at $15 were cut to 012.50.
