In el- even months of the year they tell each other everything they know and think and think they think. They talk themselves dry. But let either go off alone and on his or her re- turn he or she chatters his or her head orf to an interested audience. He or she is full of new stories, ntw spend her holidays 'otli her husband? 'gly in favor of lending some experiences, new adventures, and the oliday isn't whole family eircle is livened up. * Another -argument in favor of tak- ing holidays separately is that very few men and women want to do the same things: Theman who has spent his yeir in the turrnoil of business *ants to get to some remote place Ove us a 'pend it 4. put - where he won't see other people where he can wear his oldest clothes But the woman whose year has beer spent'tnostly within the home, yearn for a place where there is sotnethii4. doing every minute, where she sees crowds and can change her clothes two or three times a day, Why not use a little common sense in deciding the holiday and each do what he or •she likes, leav- ing the other to do the same? I don't believe there is any couple, however congenial they ale; however happily married, who don't get pleasure out of slipping the halter now and then and getting a breath of freedom, Why it is exciting to do exactly as you please for a change. * And what a miracle that absence works! When a woman leaves her husband she sees merely a common- place man with a thousand irritat- ing peculiarities, but she doesn't get fifty miles from home before she be- gins to recall how good and kind he is` and by the .end sof the week lie is once more the Hero of her dreams. * * The arusband at the moment of farewell sees merely a„woman whose. nagging got on his nerves. But bare- ly has she faded from his vision be- fore he begins to :see her in his mind's eye as his ,guardian angel and when he welcomes her back his kiss has in it the thrill of the lover The. wise wife occasionally takes her holi- day awayfrom her husband and freshens herself up mentally and physically. PERIL IN BEATY HELPS It is time the attention of women was called to the grave risks run by some of them in their search for beauty. Especially is this intended for the women who habitually use powder, face creams, hair dyes and other so called beauty agents of un- known manufacture. Many ailments are alleged to be due to cheap and` even poisonous cosmetics. On the whole ''Canada suffers less than many other countries from shoddy aids to beauty, buteven here onecan be safe only by purchasing the products of firms with a reputa- tion at stake. Zinc Stearate in Face Powders. For example, many American firms use zinc stearate as a constituent for their face powders and it has been found that a strength of this chem- ical of more than five per cent, is definitely injurious fo the skin. In this country all the reputable firms substitute'niagnesium stearate, which. has thesame properties and is harm- less. Some Poisonous Hair'Removers. Beware also of the quack hair re- mover. Superfluoushair may be un- sightly, but it should be remembered that some concoctions that are said. to dissolve the hair away are also li- able in many cases to dissolve the delicate surface of the skin as well. W. A. Poucher, Ph.C., probably the world's most foremost expert on perfumery and cosmetics, utters a warning in this respect. "Do not buy or use Orpiment, a compound for the removal of superfluous hair,” he says. "It is admittedly' an effective hair remover as it is in substance nothing more than sulphide of arsen- ic and it is only necessary for a wo- man to have a scratchedskin at the points where she applies Orpiment for her to run serious risk of death from arsenical poisoning." Beware of aHir Dyes.. On the :question of hair dyes, Mr. Poucher warns women not to use a dye 'that contains paraphyneienedia- inine ,as this has been shown to act as an irritant upon certain skins. Law reports contain many instances of women who have lost their hair or, ruined .its color or -suffered from some scalp disease as a 'a result of rising dyes containing this chemical. Undoubtedly this chemical does, in certain cases, bestow a remarkably. fine tint to the hair ,but the risk of an injured scalp is very much pres- ent. PINNED FUNDER OVERTURNED TRUCK Cargill, August t2. --A motor acci- dent occurred a short distance north pf Cargill, when a Canadian Oil Coin- pany truek, driven by John Tilker, of Harriston, ran into the ditch and upset. The driver was pinned timber the cab, suffering a fractured wrist and severe cuts and bruises about the. head -and face. He was taken to the, office of a local: doctor and later re- moved to his home in Harriston. The accident occurred at a dangerous curve in the road as the truck was coming into town frotn the north. Dust from a car ahead obstructed the driver's view at this point and he fail- ed to make the sharp turn., r1ere azic There Vancouver.—According to statist ties prepared by the Vancouver Merchants' Exchange, the foreign trade export of the port has in- creased 400 per cent. in the past five" years, while the import trade has increased 51 per cent,` In a recent report from the Cana- dian Pacific Agent at Shanghai re ceived at Montreal it is stated that the summer in 'vicinity of Shanghai has been trying' on account of drought. This mayhave a disast- rous effect on the crops. The long'. and intense heat wave was only re- cently broken by a typhoon which struck the .Coast near Shanghai. A plan is projected by the Osaka Prefectural Government authorities in Japan for the promotion of a large exposition in commemoration of the tenth anniversary of the res- toration of world peace. ` It is ex- pected that the exposition will b apened in Osaka in 1929, The plans for the exposition, which will be earned out• -at tremendous cost, have been approved by the Prime Min- Ester. So successful on Canadian farms nave been yolfng bachelors, who, prior to residence in this country were students in agriculture at the Hodleigh Salvation Army Schools in Essex, Engl'iind, that the Army will shortly receive into those insti- tutions their first classes of married men destined for farm lands in the Dominion.. The course will be given during six months, and will mean a thorough- training in branches of agriculture, particularly adapted to :onditions in Canada. Prospects for the establishment' of an air route in Japanfor mail and passenger service have brightened with the announcement that the Ministry of . Communications have included an appropriation in the budget of the Communications • De- partment for such a service. It is anticipated that there will be enough passengers willing to pay double the railroad fare far the sake of speed between Osaka and Tokyo, the leading cities of Japan. The Hebridean emigrants ' who are leaving their lone sheilings and° misty islands for a new life in Canada have, curiously enough, hitherto been ignored by the novel- ist, although the romance of this migration, extendingover a hundred years provides a wonderful field for fiction. The extent of this field has now' been realized, however, in the new novel "Eyes of a Gypsy," by the Canadian writer Jolla Murray Gibbon, who is the well- known author of "Drums Afar", etc., and Dean of Publicity of the Canadian Pacific Railway. 6 Action should . be : taken by the authorities in the Province of Que- bec to shorten- the open season for hunting deer and moose, aectrding to Ozark Ripley, well known writer on animal and wild life and 'prom- inent hunter and angler. Mr. Ripley also believes that the deer season is too early as in September the deer are still in their red coats, and their numbers are only conserved through their ability to hide amongst the leaves of the 'underbrush which have not yet fallen. He believes that a scarcity of this game will result from the lengthy season. • The Earl of Clarendon, Under' Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs in the British Government, who has been'touring the Dominion investigating the conditions under which the 3000 -family scheme from Great Britain is working out, de- clared, in an interview, at the Cana- dian Pacific Windsor Street Station at Montreal recently,' that one of the greatest things upon which the success of the scheme depended was the loyalty and cheerfulness of the mothers of families brought .out to Canada to be located on farms, His Lordship paid a special tribute to the type of women brb•ught out under this scheme whom he had met during his personal visitst among immiierant families Mr. and Mrs. Guy English and daughter, Mrs. Adolph Stebrun, of Detroit, visited at the home of Mrs. Harry Binscliffe, Gas Spoiled Sleep, Made Her Dizzy "For years I suffered from gas and constipation. Used to get headaches and dizzy spells. The first dose of Adlerika gave me relief, Now I rest well." --Mrs. B. Brinkley. Just ONE spoonful of Adlerika relieves gas and that bloated, feeling so that you cart eat and sleep well. Acts on BOTH upper and lower bowel and removes old waste matter you never thought was there.

School car stationed In midwinter et 7RamsO. ayt tXTI,en His Excellency Viscount W'li - v v lingdon and Lady Willingdon ar rived at Ramsay, Ont., recently, it was for the purpose of inspecting the Cana- dian Pacific school car which has created so much discussion since its inaugura- tion last September. Walter McNally the teacher who has been in charge of the car since it was used for the purpose, met Their Excellencies and told them of the mode of teaching employed, how the classes were conducted and of the deep interest taken' by the children in this new departure in disseminating eau., cationthroughout a section which hitherto has been practically unserved by schools. Sogreat was the interest aroused, said Mr. McNally, that night classes for children and adults had been found necessary. Viscount and Lady Willingdon 'ex- pressed their delight at the opportunity of inspecting the school car and Her Ladyship especially made a point of.. chatting with the children who con- firmed their teacher's ,,claim as to the car's popularity. Lady Willingdon was highly pleased with her experienee and handed the children chocolates, also presenting her own and His Excellency's photographs to be placed in the car. On bidding the children good-bye,�she trade a point of asking Mr. McNally to give his scholars a half -holiday in re- niembrance of the visit and •this was of course done. Lord WilIingdon, on leaving, remarked that it was quite evident that the Cana- dian Pacific Railway was taking great interest in the welfare of the children along the more remote CPA. lines. He complimented both the company and the Ontario Minister of Education on the great educational work they were pursuing in that district. Mr. McNally presented Their Excellencies withf a. book of photographs of the school car and the classes it serves at a variety of points on the 125 miles of tracks along which it. moves.
