"I don't know whether all husbands are like mine, but I do know that plenty are. Their wives don't speak about it, and, of course, I don't talk either; but T feel it is downright insulting for men to behave in such a way, "I am sure my husband is true, but I'm conceited enough to think I'm more attractive than most women, If I ani con- tent just to admire him, why ean't he control his roving eye?

RUTHLESS DECEIVER - "Dear Ann Hist; I ani 16, and for six months I've gone with a young man 22, He told me he loved me, and that he had been divorced; I didn't question it, because I love him, too, "Now I find out he was never divorced; he says he can't mar- ry me because he cannot get free. "Several tinges before this he has not told me the truth, and I've found out he has always said 11 would never' happen again. • The least any decent boy can * offer a girl is sincerity, How . can you possibly trust anyone o who has lied to you time and • again? He may be charming • and lovable, but if he is not truthful, he can only bring you anxiety and unhappiness Send • him off. You will love again, never ° fear. Next time, though, l hope * you will not give your heart " away until you are sive the lad „ deserves it. If you had listened * to your brother's warning, you " would have been spared all this " sorrow.

The pasture is so wet,- the yard nothing but mud and the poor cows wander around all day, munching half-heartedly here and there, looking fora dry spot some piece where they can lie down and chew their cud in pease and comfort. But there are no dry spots, so the caws keep wandering, At milking time, just as soon as they get in- to the stable, they flop down in their stalls with a sigh of re- lief. And of course they are vera dirty, their flanks and udders need a lot 01 washing before the sows are fit to be milked. At this time of the year, after the evening )milking, the cows are usuall• y turned out to pasture again, the gaps closed, and there they remain until early morn- ing, But this spring Pactnet leaves the gap open. In the morn- ing he finds all the cows in the barnyard where it is compara tivel• dry and sheltered, of course this airangelnent, and the tiredness of the cows, is all due to the excessive wet weather we have had now for several weeks. Each day we look at the land and think it couldn't get any wetter, short of a Rood — and then it rains again. Even the cats are tired. Blade Joe and Mitehie- White are used to hunting in the fields for mice e but no self res- ectin ' cat en o P g ) S scutin -his or g g her feet -wet, so the cats stay home where they are sure of a bed e and board without discom- fort. What the mice are doing we have no way of knowing — prob. ably drowned in their burrows. One species of livestock how• ever; seems quite cont)nt — and that is the common housefly, Ap- parently they say to themselv,s — why should we worry about the weather, there is plenty of good picking around the house. So they watch their opportunity and every time a door is opened another hundred or so come in. I get them killed off but almost before they are swept up rein- forcements arrive.

This went on for three or four tweeks, I was at a loss to know what be do, Ointments and. dusting powder helped the place to heal, hot the healing was not sutlmoient to withstand the ace etching of vicious claws -•-- and a rat's head and neck can hardly be bandaged without In - ISSUE' 25 — 1953 camera -Hog the cat, 1 am sure Mitehie would have strangled himself in the bandage. nth one day I hit on a wonderful solu- tion. Instead of bandaging Mltcbie's head I bandaged his foot! Yes, indeed. I wound good, strong, sugar -sack cotton around his foot, and then adhesive tape around the cotton to keep it on -- and it really worked, in two ways. Mitehie was so busy trying to chew the bandage off his foot he forgot about his head most ot the time and when he remem- bered he found there Was no- thing to scratch with, Naturally the unsightly sore spot soot) be- gan to heal, Now the fur has -started to grow; the fact has been released from its bandage after being re -bandaged a couple of times Mitehie had suc- ceeded in pulling it of with his teeth. Now we have a happy, respectable looking cal once more. Then, ,lust to keep in prac- tice, I had to do a little first air) on myself- First I jammed a fin- ger in the furnace door, then while cleaning windows, I fell backwards off the step -ladder The resulting injuries were in- convenient but not serious. Before this gets into print the Coronation will be over, You may have noticed I have said very little about it in this col- umn. Not through lack of in- terest but because so much has been said by so many, what was thele left to say? Probable- never robablynever in the history of the British people has a new monarch been so acclaimed, and, in the case of Elizabeth II., never has praise been so well deserved. So now. we can only say in all sincerity "God Bien Elizabeth . , long live OUR QUEEN." One of the queerest strikes occurred in Austria when, dur- ing ing a religious pageant, a bishop had arranged to wash, ceremoni- ous/y, the feet of twelve aged men, It was an annual affair, and the same twelve had been select- ed foryear.a . Suddenly, in the middle ot the ceremony, they refused to allow their feet to be washed if higher pay was not given; and the organizers were so scared that the show would be spoilt that they agreed!
