riage, It was built on trust and
Move.... But now I feel that 1
do not trust him.
"During the season, he and a
friend went Bunting regularly.
if found that, one week end, they
dated girls! Naturally I was an-
gry and jealous, and let my hus-
band know it. Lately he seems
overly -attentive to single girls;
we quarrelled and he has prom-
ised he will never try to date
;again, but I don't feel I can be-
lieve him. Should I let him have
o couple of nights off to go hunt-
ing again? I'm afraid to.
"He trusts me; he has no rea-
son not to. He's good to me, but
1 can't rid myself of this feeling
et doubt, ... His family think
Pm wonderful for the change in
Jahn since we married—in fact,
iasis mother told me not to be too
;Food to him. Perhaps I have
been."

How Can I?
i . flow can I remove light
scratches on furniture?
A. By rubbing over then
with boiled linseed oil, turpen-
tine, and white vinegar, mixed
in equal proportions. For the
deepest scratches, use a paste
made of thick mucilage nixed
with coloring matte: to blend
with the furniture. For oak, use
burnt umber and raw sienna;
for mahogany. Venetian red; for
walnut, burnt umber and Van-
dyke brown. -
Q. How can I make transpar-
ent cement for glass?
A. By digesting together for
about a week one ounce of In-
dia -rubber, 67 ounces of chloro-
forms, and 40 ounces of mastic.
Q. How ran I make use of
old candles?
A. Melt the ends of old tan -
dies and add this to common
turpentine. 'The mixture will
make an excellent. wa'_ for pal
ishing the floors.
Q. How can I renew the sur-
face of blackboards? •
A. Disolve 4 ounces glue in
1 -le pints hot water. Add 3
ounces dour of emery and enough
lamp black to color. Stir until
smooth and apply with the end
of a roll of woolen goods. For
best results, apply three coats of
the above.
Q. How can 1 help cleat the
complexion?
A. Rubbing the skin once or
twice a day with ripe tomato
aids materially in clearing the
complexi ion.

Sometimes—when 1 think of it
—I make a few notes during the
weelc about things X might like
to mention in this colunm. Just
now I looked over last week's
notes—and I laughed. They made
sense to me but I wondered what
anyone else would snake out of
them. dere they are. "Home end
Country . Frances Shelley
Wees . , tractor radio . ,
hydro -wind."
Well, let us take then one by
one and see if they make sense.
"Home and Country" . I
jotted that down after attending
our last Women's Institute meet-
ing at which I received my copy
of the current issue of Home and
Country. And why wouldn't I
mention it? It is wonderful for
W.X. members to have such a nice
little magazine for their very
own. With Ethel Chapman as edi-
tor it has improved tremendously
—and such improvement was
long overdue. But I aim not say-
ing that in a critical sense --the
old H. and C. was as good as it
could be under the circumstances.
Time and experience are neces-
sary for the publication of even
a small magazine and, until last
year, I have an idea that Home
and Country was anybody's baby,
But now it has an editor all its
own. Actually, there is no reason
why this magazine should not be
interesting end informative. Cer-
tainly there can be no lack of
material front which to fill its
pages, W.I. Branches are now
found in almost every district in
Ontario and from each one of
thein stories of worthwhile
achievement are bound to emerge
from time to time. It is an in-
centive to every branch to know
what other branches are doing
and in Home and Country we
are given that information, to
say nothing of District rallies and
conventions.
Funny, how things work out.
I am quite sure many readers of
the Farmer's Magazine were
quite upset when Miss Chapman
resigned from the staff of that
publication. And then came news
of her appointment to Home and
Country. "Wonderful . . we
haven't lost her after all!" X
heard that said so often. In fact,
as W.I, members, we now feel
that ?Miss Chapman definitely be-
iongs to urs. A. better choice could
not have been made. Born and
raised on a farm Miss Chapman
has an awareness of, and an in-
terest in, the problems of country
folk. .And Of course, she has al-
ways been .keenly interested in
the work of the W3. So I am

sure we are all very glad to have
her as editor of Home and
Country.
Frances Shelley Wees . . . a
remarkable woman. Have you
read any of her books or serials?
She is a most prolific writer. I
was privileged to hear her speak
at a meeting of the Canadian
Authors last week. She lives on
a farm; is a mother and grand-
mother; does most of her own
work; entertains and baby-sits
and yet finds time to turn out
thousands of words each year,
although she says three or four
weeks during the year is all the
time she spends in actual writing.
The rest of the time is thinking
and planning what her next book
shall be. One time she started
writing a book on a Tuesday and
finished it the following Friday.
Oh, for a gift like that! Her
record for a single day's work is
18,000 words—and that's a lot of
writing. "But", said Mrs. Wees,
"when I write, I do nothing else
but write." How she manages to
do this she did not explain.
Tractor -radio , .. the next on
my list, I jotted down that note
while listening to the radio. An
adverlisement stated that farm-
ers can now have radios installed
on their tractors ... good re-
ception and powerful enough to
be heard above the hum of the
tractor. Said the announcer—
"Order one now and insure de-
livery before spring ploughing
begins." Well ...' how crazy can
people get? It was hard enough
in the past to attract the atten-
tion of a tractor -driver, and, if
one had a message to deliver, to
make oneself heard. Now, if one
has to compete with a radio as
well .. , words fail nue!
Wind ... hydro—well, if you
shared the wind that cane our
way last week you will under-
stand why X made a note of that.
But it didn't bring any snow. In
fact the ground around here has
been covered only once this
winter and then the snow was
gone again in two clays. Saturday
morning, just as we were getting
up, a blue flash lit up the sky.
Thirty seconds later the power
was off. It stayed off until 8 a.in.
—by that. time most of the cows
had been hand -milked. One more
sample of the inconvenience of
conveniences. But oh, the joy
when lights flash on again; milk-
ing machine begins to hum and
the radio to play, It almost equals
the thrill of having hydro newly
installed. Perhaps without these
interruptions we would fail 80
realize how lucky we are.
End of notes ... and of space.
A man in Green Island, N.Y.,
dropped a paper bag holding $270
which scattered about the street.
When he counted the amount
which passers-by picked up for
him, he found he had $270.40.

Smash Coffin
To- Leal Jewels
Thieves who broke into a dere-
lict Norman church, at Waltham -
cote, near Daventry, England,
smashed a coffin in a family vault
In a vain search for jewels that
might have been buried with a
body 112 years ago. They wrench-
ed away the marble tablet to the
vault and tore off the head of
the coffinthrowing the skull into
an adjoining unused. grave. Next
clay the vault floor was found
littered with bones.
Grave robberies are rare now-
adays, but they used to be cons -
men. It's on record that at Scot -
house, near Clones, gold seekers
forced their way through stone
walls behind which lay the coffin
of a ninety -four-year-old roan
who had died sixty-three years
earlier.
The old man, said rumour, was
immensely wealthy and had made
his coffin himself, leaving instruc-
tions that all his gold should be
buried with him. He had been in
the habit of lying in the coffin to
"see whether it fitted him," and
had told his servants that it must
be "roomy." But the would-be
thieves were disturbed and missed
the treasure.
Reid Back By Bayonets
In a cemetery near Geneva the
family tomb of M. Jean Bart-
lidlorni was opened in 1923 for
the burial of his ten -year-old son.
The gravediggers found that the
body of Monsieur Jean's first
wife—who died eighteen years
earlier—had been stripped of the
precious jewels with which she
had been buried.
Several attempts were made to
rob the grave in Brooklyn Ceme-
tery of James Jones, seaman,
after a story that it contained a
casket of Russian Crown Jewels
had been circulated. The jewels
were said to be worth one million
pounds.
So persistent was the story that
it was finally decided, some years
ago, to open the grave officially.
Would-be spectators were kept
back at the cemetery entrances by
armed guards with fixed bay-
onets. But no jewels were found.
In the days of body -snatchers,
