Answers 1. No. One should extend con- gratulations' to the bridegroom, best wishes to the bride, make a cordial remark or two, then leave them to the other guests. 2.

Find Manuscript Of Shakespeare's Three Faded, Blotched Pages Thought to Have Beets Writ- ten By Him - Oid Dispute May Be Settled A manuscript expert of the Bri- tish Museum announced his con- viction last week that three faded, blotched and untidy pages belong- ing to the institution had actually been written by William Shake - :ware and were the only extant manuscripts of the dramatist. The authority, Dr, Robin Flower, deputy keeper of manuscripts in the museum, told the Royal Soc- iety of Literature that if his con- viction were correct, it would, in his opinion, end the long-standing controversy as to whether the plays and poems usually attributed to Shakespeare were written by bim or by some one else, presum- ebly Sir Francis Bacon. Mystery of His identity "If true, we shall be relieved for ever of the wearisome assertion that anybody else but Shakespeare wrote Shakespeare," Flower said if these samples could be compared with an admit- ted specimenof handwriting of the poet more extensive than his sig- nature, the "mystery of the dram- atist`s identity would be cleared up once and for all." Lever Brothers' $300,000 Addition A $300,000 addition to the big 'Toronto plant of Lever Brothers Limited, soap manufacturers, is that company's response to ex- panding business conditions in Canada. H. A. Wilkins, president o the company, declared tliat con- tinued expansion of business evade the addition necessary. The neve building, on 'which work is well snider way, will consist of three Stories of concrete, brick and steel construction. It will be 140 feet long and 80 feet wide, and will house the company's general offices and cafeteria. Air -condi - limning will be adopted through- out and the very latest in office equipment will be at the services 'of the firm's employees when they mauve into their new quarters this fall. Mapping Parties Survey Northland Ottawa Is Sending Out a Force of 250 Men to Investigate Areas hi Every Mineral -Pro- ducing Province Forty-six geological and topo- graphical survey and exploratory. 250 men, have been assigned to field work by the Mines and Geo- logy Branch of the Department of Mines Branch of the Department of Mines and Resou3# s,jt 1•lvake)33 e nounced last week.The parties will map and investigate areas in every mineral -producing province and in the Yukon and Northwest Terri- tories. Thirty-three parties will be en- gaged in geological surveys and in- vestigations and 13 in topographical mapping. Of the former, seven are in British Columbia, four in Al- berta, two in Saskatchewan, four in Manitoba, three in Ontario, four in Quebec, two each in New Bruns- wick and Nova Scotia, one 4a the Yukon and four in the Northwest Territories. Six parties are also being placed in the field by the National Mus- eum of Canada. They will be en- gaged chiefly in gathering new in- formation on Canadian flora and fauna, native races and in collet- isl;i of near speeimehs Vie the mus emu. A flesh -eating plant has been discovered in Seattle, Wash. In summer it feeds on grasshoppers; in winter it will take meat, prefer- ably sausages. It will save farm- ers thousands of dollars every year by banishing the grasshopper menace from cornfields. It looks like a cobra about to 'strike, and has an open "mouth" full of honey which tempts the grasshoppers in- side. What Science is Doing DIET REVIVES HEARING A 70 -year-old San Francisco physician claims that after 20 years of experiments and study he has discovered a successful chemi- cal treatment for deafness. The treatment consists of ad- ministering two powerful synthe- tically -produced chemicals, nico- tinic acid and thiamin. They are believed to restore activity in the hearing nerve. "SILVER STEEL" Silver steel, a new stainless al- loy which resists sea water corros- ion, is announced. The new alloy is made by ad- ding a small amount of silver, never more than two per cent, and frequently less than one, to the present stainless steels that con- tain chromium and nickel. The precious metal goes into so- lution in stainless steel. It dis- solves like sugar in coffee. The silver forms a film of silver chlor- ide on the surface of the steel This film is not soluble in water, hence it protects the steel against rust. If the film is knocked off, a new one immediately replaces it, corning from the silver dissolved in the steel -- CURES ARTHRITIS A new treatment for rheuma- toid arthritic patients, never be- fore used in forth A.nierica, is re- ported to the Ontario Medical As- sociation by Dr. Gordon Calder of London, Ont. Dr. Calder said he had used a compound, sodium aurothiomalate, Over a period of six to 24 months, in a number of eases. About 70 per cent, of the cases were eem- plotely cured 'or showed marked improvement, 13r. Calder declared. Finest Iron Ore is Located Here Canada Possesses Great De- posits Which May Result In Development of New Iron And Steele Industry hi North- land Investigations of the last few Months have confirmed that Can- ada possesses one of the finest iron ore deposits in the world which may be of great significance in the development of a new iron and steel industry in this country, it was declared at yesterday's session of the Canadian chemical conven- tion. Below Lake Surface The question was, however, one et mining. The deposit is located below the surface of a lake, Steep Rock Lake, about 155 miles west of Port Arthur and about four miles north of the south line of the Canadian National Railways. It had yet to be determined whether the ore' could be mined in success- ful competition with the pig -iron and with deposits of Minnesota and neighboring states. America's Most Fearsome }east Fossils Tell Story of Giant Dragon Which Once Lived, Ors This Continent -- Crawl- ed Out From Rockies An armored dragon, most fear- some of beasts known to have Tir- ed ired on this continent, crawled down out of the Rockies to the Great Plain -35,000,000 years ago. Records of these giant lizards,' eclipse; .bodies,;were completely ,coy eendr;1c^ith bony plates! which over- lapped ,in even rows like tiles on, a roof, have been found by scien- tists of the Smithsonian Institu- tion, Washington, D. C. The appearance of the dragons on the plains probably frightened the earliest pigmy horses and cam- els, the institution report said. The species, related to crocodiles and snakes, is extinct now. Have You Heard Two actors who were jealous of each other .met in a restaurant. They exchanged frigid nods. "How are you getting along?" asked one presently. "Pretty well," replied the oth- er. "Still keeping alive." The first man eyed his rival steadily for a. second and then asked casually: -"What's your motive?" "Somnambulist said to have runa mile in six minutes." lie was very fast asleep.. Driving his car over a level crossing, he had been run into by a Iocomotive. When his small son was taken in to see him in bed his first words were: -"Daddy, did you see the works of the engine whil you were under it?" In some ways the snodersn man is very similar to the pri- mitive man. If his women folk talk too much, he goes to his club, while his ancestor just reached for it. "Have you done anything to check the crime wave in Crimson Gulch?" "There isn't any crime wave," answered Cactus doe. "When we find we can't make the citizens stop drinkin' and gamblin' we pass a law makin' both legal." "Some men uses big words," said Uncle Eben, "de saute as a turkey spreads his tail feathers. Dey makes an elegant impression, but deg don't repersent no real meat." The area intended for spring wheat in Canada during 1939 is reported at 25,335,000 acres as compared with 25,188,400 acres sown in 1933.

As the graduating class fin- ally earned the "'39" pin, a cher- ishe(i hope of from three to seven years, nearly every degree -granting college reported more graduates than in any year since 1935. Total figure for men and women finishing their .ourses in all brant of higher education this year is 5.875 compared with 5,525 in 1938. In the years 1936-7 the number was estimated at 5,750 while in 1933 au all-time peak of 6,250 was reached, Vocational Diplomas Popular Last years notable tendency to- ward vocational diplomas con- dones and the percentage of "fin- ished" co-eds has risen in some colleges almost to the half -way niark, the survey shows. Univer- sity authorities tray- the upswing back to the economic bptimism of 1935-5 when most 1939 graduates began their college ereers. Many ofifcials predict an even stronger army will step out into the busi- ness and professional world next spring. Upward, Westward Tendency As usual, Larger universities are good barometers of academic trends, McGill, Toronto, Alberta and Dalhousie registering most ob- yions increases. The "upward and westward" tendency.. most evident. in.; 1035 continues at slackened Pace as most western Colleges re- port further swelling of graduate ranks. Furniture And Gowns Similar Go Hand in Glove In World of Fashions; Seen First in Chair Frocks and furniture are hand in glove as far as fashion goes. And this affinity has always reflected itself first in chairs and sofas, though furniture for storage feels the effect of style changes in cloth- es eventually too. It's easy enough to spot a. chair of the hoop skirt period, and the conversation chair, made so a man could sit backward to prrrteot his expensively elaborate coat-tails, is all right to smirk "about. ' '=t But more 'recent furniture alas the same tale to tell. Chairs during the era of bustles dwinded to slim dainty little numbers than an in - DOUBLE AUTOMATIC BOOKLET tricately draped lady could perch on. And who doesn't recall the ob- ese furniture of the nineteen - twenties when women's : clothes amounted to practically nothing. Over -stuffed was the only vyord for those chairs and sofas they could never have come into style except. in a time of skimpy dress- es. , Without Unnecessary Bulk Wtih the turn of the decade, the nineteen -thirties settled into pore reasonably proportioned clothes- not too scant, not too voluminous And so with furniture` --fat bulbous ' pieces went out and in their place came comfortably scaled furniture upholstered enough for ease but without unnecessary bulk. • . Which is all a very good argu- ment for keeping your furniture looking like today. Few Alcoholics Attempt Suicide When They Do Make A. Try, They're Unsuccessful Doctor Declares Alcoholic persons seldom attempt suicide, Dr. Merrill Moore, of the Harvard Medical School, declared. last week. From a study of patients brought - to Boston City hospital for at- tempted suicide, Dr. Moore found tbat comparatively few alcoholic persons tried to end their lives and that, when they did, it was later in life than among other persons. Also, lie reported, alcoholic persons were much less successful in their suicide attempts. Only 5 per cent of alcoholic per- sons succeeded in efforts to kill themselves, he said, as compared with 11 per cent of non -alcoholics. It is reported that suicide at- tempt by a woman is a gesture, a 'look what you have done to me'," he said. Courage Life bolds no failure, but to cease to try, And he gains most who will not see defeat; Falls, but to rise, with battle in his eye, 2`o seek again a new path for his feet.

Pain sapped her strength •until she lost hope of recovery. Many remedies were tried, but nothing broke the grip of her crip- pling rheumatism. At last her hus- band persuaded her to try Krus- chen Salts:- , "My arms and feet were swollen with rheumatism," she writes. "I could not walk nor get regular sleep, and nothing did me any lasting good. I was so hopeless of ever getting better, I lost my good nature entirely. Then my hus- band persuaded me to try Krusch- en Salts. After two weeks I •be- gan to feel better. I persevered, and in six weeks, I was doing housework, Later, I was able to go for a walk. Now I am free from pain 'and I ;fee? grand." - (Mrs.) F.W. Rheumatism is commonly caus- ed by deposits of .uric acid crys- tals, which lodge in the muscles and joints. Kruschen helps to - break up these deposits of troub- ling crystals and to convert them into a harmless solution, which is removed through the natural chan- nel -the kidneys, tiAH CULCtiS esseestatormmas "BRAY CHICKS ARE THE FINEST I've had," says Francis Gardiner, Launching', P.M'.
