,L.s So Good
For Relieving Miseries of
Childrens Colds
More that two generations ago -in
grandmother's day—mothers first dis-
covered Vicks Vapoltub. Today it is
the most widely used home -remedy for
relieving miseries of children's colds.
And here is the reason . , .
The moment you rub VapoRub on
the throat, chest and back at bedtime
it starts to work two ways at once -
and keeps on working for hours—to
ease coughing spasms, help clear con
g'estion in cold -clogged upper breath-
ing ppassages, relieve muscular soreness
or tightness. I t promotes restful sleep.
Often most of the misery of the cold
is gone by morningi That's why
VapoRub is so good to use when colds
strike. Try it!

The Postmistress asks the co-oper-
ation of all patrons in speeding del-
ivery of Christmas mail. Here are
ways in which you can help:
1. Don't rush to the Post Office
as soon as the mail arrives and visit
with your neighbor. It takes. an hour
to sort the mail and the hum of con-
ve.rsation distracts workers - and
Slows sortation.
2. Don't -bring your parcels and
delay the general delivery while
they are being weighed. Post them
before 11.80 a.m. and after 2.45
8.01.
3. Post letters and cards early.
Remember your neighbors mail is
every bit as important as yours, so
don't expect it all to go if it's posted.
at the last minute. Trains don't wait.
4. If you have a number of
cards and letters stamp and face
them all the same -way and tie in a
bundle. This saves the Post Office
clerk or rural courier one handling.
If these rules are followed it will
save delay in the despatch of mails
from this office.

PERFECT DESSERTS FOR THE
FESTIVE OCCASION
Hello Homemakers! Fruit cook -
les, the plum pudding and mince-
meat require several days to mel-
low and develop that rich blending
of flavours so' desirable. They will
be less heavily fruited and lack the
richness of other years because •of
the scarcity of some of the ingredi-
ents, However,• make a perfect
dessert, neither soggy nor dry, and
the family will be cheerful.
Preparations for steam puddings
may be accomplished in easy stages.
Wash raisins and drain thoroughly;
Blared peel and chop suet when you
,have a few leisure moments in the
evening. When ready to mix, use
about % cup ofthe sifted measured
flour to dredge the fruit. • Combine
measured ingredients together. Mix
and pour into well greased moulds.
Cover .with two layers of wax
paper. Tie securely with a string.
Incidentally, if you put puddings in
several small moulds they will re-
quire less time to cook. We prefer
to steam the puddings. However, if
your steamer has worn out, you may
improvise one by putting moulds in
a covered roast pan with the reek in
place in lower part of oven with
bottom element on High—indicator'.
at 400, or place on top element and
keep boiling. Do not lift the lid
during the first 2 hours. If the lid
is tight -fitting it will not be neces-
sary to replenish with water—if
water has to be added, use hot water
so that steaming continues without
interruption. To reheat the pud-
ding, allow a half hour for small
moulds, or 1 hour for the listed Eng-
lish Plum Pudding.
