WOMAN AGED WITH
SCIATICA
Now Praises Kruschen
When sciatica attacked this
woman six years ago, she couldn't
move without great pain. Treat-
ment after treatment failed to
help her. She tried Kruschen and
got quick relief.
tOSix years ago, I suffered ter-
ribly from sciatica,' she writes.
AI tried everything, but to no
avail. Then I took ICruschen Salts.
The first few doses gave quick re-
lief. At the end of a few weeks my
sciatica had gone. Now I always
begin the day with at pinch of
Kruschen in a glass of water. I
Live a strenuous life, being widow-
ed four years ago, and having a
con to keep. I run a boarding-
house, rise at 6 a.m., and retire at
11 p.m. I am 52, but everyone
says 'I look 32—thanks to Krus-
theli.Salts."—(Mrs.) F.E.R.
The severe pain which is char-
acteristic of sciatica is often due
to needle -pointed uric acid crystals
in the sheath of the great sciatic
nerve. Two of the ingredient salts

Gardening
VINES
There is a mistaken notion that
clinging vines will harm masonry.
In England where houses and the
churches have been so covered for
centuries .such an opinion is ridic-
taled. On stone or brick or stucco
walls, they will do no damage and
their foliage keeps out oppressive
heat in Summer because the wall
is always in the shade.
SWEET PEAS
Sweet Peas must be planted very
early. This plant develops its ex-
tensive root growth and upper vine
structure when the weather is cool.
i3 it does not get its feet well down
into the soil, then, when the days
turn hot, it is liable to wither and
cease furnishing its daily quota of
color and fragrance.
Planting directions are simple
but important. Successful garden-
ers advise a trench, dug at least a
foot deep, filled within two inches
of the top with rich soil, mixed up
'with well rotted manure or old
leaves. Seed is planted just as early
in the spring as possible, about an
inch or two deep. Rains will wash
more soil into the trench, filling it
ep gradually and thus adding furth•
er to root growth.
When the upper plant starts to
dievelop it will he necessary to sup-
ply solne climbing support in the -
form of brush, strings or chicken
noire.
VEQ:ETAELES
The smaller the amount of space
available for vegetables, the more
intensive should be the productieu.
For very small vegetables like
lettuce and radish, the rows 12 Inc.
apart wili be sufficient. Beets,
beans, carrots, peas and spinach
heed at least 15 inches between,
while potatoes, corn and staked to-
matoes must have a couple of feet
or thirty inches. Space may be sav-
ed with the;tter type if something
quick maturing such as lettuce, and
spinach are planted in between,
The bigger things will net need the
till room at first and by the time
they do,: the early crops will be out
Of the way,
Tender vegetables are those that
are graven quickly, therefore the
experts force theirs along with a
chemioal fertilizer, cultivation and,
if possible, water.
All civil aviation activities in

There are 400,234 Boy Scouts in
Great Britain and Ireland at the
close of 1938. The census showed
58,891 Scouts within the London
area.
The successful raising of a fund
of 250,000 pounds toward endow-
ment of Imperial Headquarters of
the Boy Scouts Association was
announced by the President of the
General Council, II. R. H, the Duke
of Connaught, at the annual meet-
ing in January.
It may not be generally known
that the collapse last winter of the
famous Honeymoon Bridge over
the Niagara river produced a free
library for the village of Queen-
ston. When the great ice jam oc-
curred, and attracted throngs of .
visitors, Rover Scouts of the her-
orio community pitched a tent at
the Scene, borrowed a stove,. and
sold "hot dogs." In • a :fewv: hours
they netted a tdy sum of $125. And
with this fund they turned their
"den" into a Iibrary, with shelves,
ables and standard library record
equipment; and at its formal open-
ing displayed a selection of some
700 volumes. Books were secured
from various sources, chiefly as do-
nations. Rover Scouts in uniform
act as librarians at stated hours.
Young European refugees finding
asylum in. English homes are being
invited to join local Boy Scout
troops, or special troops in refugee
camps. The Southeast Lancashire
County Council is sending Scouts
to personally invite each refugee
youth arriving in that area to be-
come a member of the nearest
Scout unit,
That no one ever "muddled
through" anything to success, not-
withstanding the old British tradi-
tion, was a declaration of His Ex-
cellency the Governor General, the
Lord Tweedsmuir, Chief Scout for
Canada, addressing the annual ban -
duet of 1,200 junior Scout leaders
and guests at. Montreal.
"I do not .believe it, stated Itis

ponents. Today's problems will ne-
ver be solved by unstable, clever
people with quick brains and noth-
ing else. But neither will they be
solved by honest stupidity. Charas'
ter is a most important thing in
life, but it must be illumined and
directed by intelligence."
Modern
Etiquette
BY ROBERTA LEE
-k.
1. Would it be proper, as an in-
troduction, to say: `Mir. Marshall,
this is Miss Wilson"?
2. Should the wedding rehearsal
be held several days prior to the
wedding?
3. When calling to see a friend.
who Is ill, and one is not permitted
to see him, is it all right to write
a short message on one's card?
4. What shonid one say, when
talking with an acquaintance, and
the latter makes some statement
with which one heartily disagrees?
5. Isn't it the privilege of a, guest
to stay out of some game at a par-
ty when he thinks the game is too
childish and silly?
5. Is it permissable to use one's
handkerchief at the table?
Answers:
1. Reverse the names. The man
should be presented to the woman.
Say: ''ltiiss Wilson, this is Mr.
Marshall."
2. No; it is customary to have
the rehearsal the day or evening
preceding the wedding:„
3. Yes.
4. Merely say: "No. I do not ag-
ree with you. I think, etc." How-
ever, one should do this pleasantly
and avoid provoking an argument.
5. 1o. If a guest cannot enter
with. test into all the games, he
should not go to the party; nor
will he be very popular.
C. Yes, if necessary, but it should
be used as inconspicuously as is
possible,
Kirkland Lake
Baby Capital
Gold is not the most valuable
product being produced in Kirk-
land Lake, Reeve R. 3. Carter,
of that municipality said last week.
"Of far more lasting benefit," he
said, "is its production of young
Canadians.
Highest Ie. Dominion
"We have, I believe, the highest
birth rate in the Dominion -38
per thousand—and one of the low-
est death rates -9 per thousand,"
he said.
With a population of 23,000
Kirkland Lake has twice as many
live births a year as Niagara Falls,
of the same population, and more
than either Brantford with its, 30,-
000 population, or Kingston with
25,000, }lir. Carter said.

Wasteful Practice
Improvement in seed quality is
to no avail in agriculture if solve
producers retain the idea that the
land is an "inexhaustible reservoir
of plant food," W. T. G. Wiener,
of Ottawa, secretary treasurer of
the Canadian Seed Growers' As-
- sedation, said in an address be-
fore the Ontario Crop Iniprove-
xnent. Association.
"If we continue to grow weeds
by the millions of tons annually,
what hope is there of bettering
,'iricultural conditions by, use of
good >;;ed alone?"
•IIs de:.eri;)cul present production

A post office inspector, on his
annual round, called at the little
post office of Mudville, which was
run behind a few barrels and sacks .
' in a grocer's shop.
The slipshod way it was manag-
ed surprised him.
"Look here," be said angrily to
the shopkeeper -postmaster, "You're
going to hear about this when I
send in my report!"
The shopkeeper disappeared be•
hind tIle barrels, and a little while
later emerged with a small box
which contained some stamps and
coppers and two small exercise
books. He turned them toward the
inspector.
"Here," be said, "take your old
post office and get out!"
"But, my good man," said
Mrs. Smith, dubiously, to the
tramp at her door, "your story
has such a hollow ring."
"Yes, ma'am. That's the
natural result of speaking with
an empty stomach."
Some people were visiting a

You can't stump film folks,
They'd hired a Red Indian tribe to
give the right background to a
Wild West picture, and wanted a
pow -wow scene, with the braves
speaking their . native tongue.
But none of them knew it. They
could only speak English. "All
right,' said the film man, "speak
English." Then, after the pow-
wow, they reversed the sound-
track—and now it sounds like real
Redskin talk.
Anyway, picture -goers will take
it as "read."

Daughter: "I did, and he ,told

Q. How can I use sheets that are
too worn to be used as bed cover-
ing?
A. They can be made into pillow
slips. Take the width of one out of
each corner. There will be a seam
on each side which makes the hem,
and it will take only a few minutes
to finish on the sewing machine.
Q. Flow can I give a brilliant
shine to cut glass?
A. A little bluing added to the
soapsuds in which cut glass is to
be washed will produce a sparkling
effect.
Q. How can take away any dis-
agreeable odors in the house?
A. By sprinkling ground cinna-
mon on top of the range. It will
leave a pleasant aroma.
Q. How can I soften the hair?
A. After washing the hair, try
adding a half cup of vinegar to the
rinsing water. It will soften the
hair and give it a pretty sheen.
