e ?.:, ea
Tigers had been ravaging a
lags and the terror-stricken natives
sent for the nearest white man to
assist them.
This man was a crack shot and
had never been known to miss. His
method was to tie a goat to the
foot of a tree at dusk, climb the
tree, and when the tigers came
for the goat, fire at the flash of
their eyes. In the morning they
would be found dead, shot straight
between the eyes.
He followed his usual procedure
the first night, but although he fir-
ed several shots, when day dawn-
ed the goat had gone and there
were no dead tigers.
This happened on two succeed-
ing nights. Perturbed, he took a
huge torch with him on the fourth
.night and instead of firing at the
flashing eyes, switched on his big
torch, and saw, to his amazement,
six tigers advancing in pairs each
with one eyes shut!
"Good card players have in-
acrutable features," says a wri-
ter. There is always trouble
If It Is noticed that they are
wearing their hearts .up their
sleeves.
"I suppose you carry a memen-
to of some sort in that locket?"
said one weiT2 .n to another.
"Yes, a lock of my husband's
hair,,,
"But your husband is alive."
"Sure; but his hair is gone."
"Would you like anything
else with your dinner, sir?"
"Yes, that little blonde sit-
trig
itting in the corner over there."
Three slightly deaf men were
motoring from the north to Lon-
don in an old noisy car, and hear-
ing was difficult.
As they were nearing London,
one asked; "Is this Wembly?"
"No," replied the second, "this
Is Thursday."
"So am I," put in the third. "So
let's stop and have one."
What Science
Doing
TREE RINGS IDEA UPSET
It is now found that telling the
age of a tree by the number of its
rings is like trying to tell a wo-
man's age ny her looks.
The discovery upsets one of
man's oldest beliefs that trees put
on one ring each year. They are
visible when the trunk of a tree is
sawed in two.
Trees were discovered in Texas
that put on five a year. Hardly
any were found that failed to add
at least two anually,
TO SOBER UP DRUNKS
To sober up quickly when dead
drunk, take an intravenous injec-
tion of insulin and of glucose. Dis-
covery that these two "shots" will
quickly reduce the alcohol in the
blood was reported by Walter
Goldfarb, Karl M. Bowman and
Samuel Parker, of Bellevue and
Kings County Hospitals, New York
City.
They tried it on drunks brought
to the hospital. The shots convert
the alcohol into water and carbon
dioxide.
WOULD BANISH ALL PAIN
Medical research workers have
discovered a new anaesthetic
which they believe will abolish
pain all over the body.
The theory is that when body
cells are injured they release a
powerful substance known as his-
tamine. This substance, it is
thought, activates the endings of
the nerves which carry pain sen-
sations to and from the brain. The
new anaesthetic called thymoxye-
thyldietlylamine, neutralizes the
histamine and so no pain messages
are sent to the brain.

Etiquette
BY ROBERTA LEE
1. When a young man has been
introduced to a girl, and likes her
very much, is it all right for him
to ask permission to call on her?
2. Isn't it a friendly gesture to
hold a person's hand, or place a
hand on his arm, while talking
with him?
3. What would be a good toast
for a host to offer to a guest?
4. Should a business letter al-
ways be signed personally by some
member of the firm, or is a type-
written signature sufficient?
6. Is it correct to refer to dra-
perieis as "drapes"?' "
6. When a man takes a woman
in to dinner, should be offer her
his right arm or his left?
Answers
1. Yes, after he has been in her
company for a reasonable time,
but not within the first twenty or
thirty minutes. 2. It may be a
friendly gesture, but it is very an-
noying to some people and should
be avoided. 3. "To our guest,
and our only request is that he be
our guest often." 4. Every letter
should be signed with pen and
ink. 5. No; say "draperies." One
might as well refer to curtains as
"carts." 6. He should offer his
right arm.

ho - Can 1?
BY ANNE ASH! EY
Q.—How can I make a good
soap substitute for washing rib-
bons, and also delicate woollen
goods?
A.—Some people claim that two
or three potatoes grated into a pan
of water will give even better re-
sults than soap for this purpose.
Q.—How can I prevent eggs
from breaking or sticking to the
pan when poaching?
A.—Put a few drops of vinegar
into the water. Another method
is to grease the pan before putting
the water into it.
Q -What is a good tonic for
plants?
A.—The water in which beef
has been washed is an excellent
tonic treatment for plants, especi-
ally for roses and geraniums.
Q.—How can I restore the nap
of velvet?
A.—Hold the wrong side of the
velvet over a boiling kettle, or rub
it across the bottom of a hot flat
iron which has been turned up-
side down.
Q.—How can I soften hard wa-
ter?
A.—There are several agents
that may be used for softening
hard water. Among them are
lemon juice, borax, or an oatmeal
bag.
Q.—How can

A.—It is said

SCOUTING
The Boy Scouts of Canada are
all ready to play their important
part during the visit of Their Ma-
jesties King George VI and Queen
Elizabeth. At the various stop-
ping places of the royal tour they
will assist in lining the streets,
and in traffic control. In the lar-
ger centres they will maintain
mobile first aid units, and will op-
erate lost children bureaus and
rest rooms. On incoming high-
ways they will co-operate in the
staffing of information booths for
the benefit of motorists.
Firestone triumphs again! This time with the new
Firestone Champion—more than just a new tire ---a new
kind of tire that provides a combination of safety feah:res
never before offered.
)3y a new method of tire building, each and every part of
the tire is locked and interlocked for greater safety. Then
by a new and advanced method of Gum -Dipping and
Safety -Lock cords and the plies themselves are welded
together into a super -safe, inseparable unit of amazing
strength.
This new tire has the sensational new Gear -Grip tread
with thousands of scientifically spaced sharp -edge angles
that makes it a marvel for safe, quick stopping, quiet
operation and long mileage. And here's more good news
--you can buy the new Champion Tires at no extra cost!
See the nearest Firestone Dealer today.
On May 20, the King's official
birthday, the Scouts will give the
leadership across Canada in the
celebration of the day by burning
a chain of beacons, accompanied
by fireworks, in the evening, as
was done so successfully to mark
the King's Coronation in 1037.
.As a unique international de-
monstration of Scout neighborli-
ness, during the day, May 20, Ca-
nadian and American Scouts will
meet at various points along the
boundary line, from the Atlantic
to the Pacific, fel' a goodwill cere-
mony, and the planting of "King's
Birthday Trees." Notable gath-
erings are expected on the historic
Niagara border, and at Windsor
and Detroit.
As a result of the outstanding
success of the recent Toronto
• Scout Cyclorama—a fair of booths
representing over 100 educational
features of the Scout training—
held in the Canadian National Ex-
hibition Coliseum and adjoining '
arena, C.N.E. officials discussed the
posibility of the Scout show being
made a feature of the great fall
fair. The Cyclorama was attend-
ed by crowds reminding of big
days of the "EX."
• One of the features of the Scout
Cyclorama was a long street of
hobby work by Wolf Cubs and
Scouts, displaying literally thous-
ands of items, from -art work to
airplanes of every known model,
and appetizing examples of the
culinary efforts of young camp
cooks.

CULTIVATION
Aside from the planning and
planting, no early job compares
with cultivation. Authorities do
not ask one to keep the hoe going
all Sumner, far from it. But they
do request that the garden be dug
once thoroughly first thing in the
Spring, then cultivated once or
twice afterwards. With proper
tools the work need be no more
than healthy exercise. For the
purpose, there is nothing better
than a little three or five fingered
cultivator or a Dutch hoe. Either
of these implements will make
short work of a vegetable or flow-
er garden. Cultivation serves a
double purpose, it keeps down
weeds and it conserves moisture.
STONE WALKS
Particularly in the smaller gar-
den where visitors and children

soon wear grass thin along the
edges of flower beds or between
the house and the swing or arbor,
regular paths are of very practi-
cal value. With a little care they
will add beauty to the rest of the
garden, too. Most pleasing mate-
rial of all for this purpose is flag-
stones. These are broad, flat,
thin slabs of any soft stone, usual-
ly found in abundance around cer-
tain river beds.
They are sunk flush with the
ground so that the lawnmower will
run over them, and at least an
inch and a half of grass left be-
tween edges. Sometimes a little
sand is placed under the stone for
drainage.
Other walk materials are sand,
cinder or brick.
WHEN TRANSPLANTING
Experts point out that the se-
cret of successful transplanting is
plenty of water, when the job is
done and for a week or so after-
wards: Of next importance will
be shade and stimulant. Moving
a plant is something like an opera-
tion for a human being, and the
larger the specimen the more ne-
cessary the attention. With shrub-
bery and trees often main roots
are cut and the shock is severe.
