LENSES FOR NEAR -BLIND
A new type of spectacle lens
with a magnification of 300 per
cent., brings new hope to the part-
ly blind. Dr. William Feinbloom,
of New York, said that seven chil-
dred in institutions for the blind
had already been returned to pub -
lie schools through use of the
lens.
ACID CHECKS MOLD
The problem of bread mold, en-
)ianced in the last two decades by
development of the sliced, wrap-.
ped loaf and the demand for a
xaoist Ioaf, has been solved
Through discovery that propionic
acid in salt form delays mold for-
mation from two days to two
weeks. The acid does not advers-
ely affect the flavor or texture of
the bread.
JELLY, SECRET OF STRENGTH
Vibration of a protoplasmic
jelly inside the "sinews" of mus-
'-cles is the •secret of Strength. '
This discovery was described to
the American Association for the
Advancement of Science by Dr.
Eben J. Carey, a recognized au-
thority on muscles, nerves and
bones.
The protoplasmic jelly fills the
thread -shaped cells that link to-
gether to form the "sinews" or
'bundles of muscles. This jelly vi-
brates to cause the well-known
contraction and expansion of mus-
cles in action. Dr. Carey has map-
ped on 25,000 slices of muscles,
about 1/1,000th of an inch thick.

How Can 1
EY ANNE ASHLEY
Q.—How can I make an indel-
ible stencil ink?
.A..—Mix two parts sulphate of
manganese, one part lampblack,
four parts sugar (all in powder
form). Then make a paste by ad-
ding a little water.
Q.—How can I keep the flavor
and vitamins in vegetables?
A.—Don't cook them in too
much water. Cauliflower, cab-
bage, spinach, and string beans
need no more than a fourth to a
half cup of water to start steam-
ing and releasing their juices.
Q.—What are some of the
starch substitutes?
A.—Borax water in place of
etareh for stiffening voiles, dimity,
Med sheer, fine collars and jabots.
Use three tablespoonfuls of sugar
%n a gallon of water for organdie,
weak gum arabic solution for silk
and crepe, and bran water or rice
water for cretonne and figured
cottons or linens.
Q.—How can I prolong the wear
of shoes?
A.—Apply several coats of co-
pal varnish to the soles and vamps.
Shoes treated in this way will sel-
dom have to be half -soled. This
ha particularly good for children's
t;flloes that receive such hard wear.
Q.—How can I clean a white-
painted article effectively?
A.—Try using water in which
two or three onions have been
boiled, and see how readily the
dirt is removed.
Q,—How can I fatten thin
hands?
.A, Wash the hands in hot
water, dry, and rub a little olive
oil into them. Make the applica-
lion before retiring so that the oil
can remain on as hong as possible.
Huge New Liner
S.::..ils Next April
R. M. S. Queen Elizabeth, Larg-
est Ship Ever Constructed,
Will Set Out On Her Maiden
Voyage
Largest ship ever constructed,
the R.M.S. Queen Elizabeth, will
sail from Southampton April 24, of
1940; on her maiden voyage to New
York, it is announced from the Lon- '
don offices of Cunard White Star
Line.
Tonnage 85,000
The 1,031 -foot liner, of an estim-
mated 85,000 gross tonnage, will be
put into regular service between
New York, Cherbourg and South-
ampton along with the liner Queen
Mary.
At present, the Queen Mary holds
all records for speedy transatlantic
crossings but expected to be even
greater is the speed of the Queen
Elizabeth, named after and christ-
ened by Queen Elizabeth at Clyde-
bank, Scotland, last September.
The line plans to use only the
two liners on. the weekly run in-
stead
nstead of the present three ships
necessary to maintain the schedule.
Have You Heard
The teacher wrote on the black-
board: "The horse and the cow is
in the stable."
"Now," she said to a little boy,
"what is wrong with that sen-
tence ?"
Little Boy "I think you should
say, 'The cow and the horse is in
the stable'."
Teacher—"Why?"
Little Boy—"Ladies first."

A patient, escaped from an in-

a coloured guard at a military en-
campment. By means of signs be-

him. Then one of them happened
to glance toward the guard and de-
manded in astonishment:
"Why, man, what's the matter
with you? You're trembling and
the sweat is pouring off your
face."
"Yassir," gulped the negro.

Five Top Bands
Coming To Ex.
Five of America's foremost dance
bands, "swing" and "sweet", have
been announced for the Canadian
National Exhibition by General
Manager Elwood A. Hughes. If the
dance fans want to "go jittery" or
if they prefer the more stately and
measured tread they May make
their selection between Artie Shaw,
Benny Goodman, Glen Gray, Tom-
my Dorsey and Guy Lombardo's
stage - screen radio ensembles,
Horace Heidt had been engaged,
too, but Mr. Hughes released him
from his contract when he later
arranged a long-term lucrative en-
gagement in Hollywood. The Ex-
hibition promises some innovations
in the dance r'vilion this year,

Says 1! ?f&u&e Calls
Should Be rief
That's One of the First Males to
Learn in Business
Office calls, whether they're for
business or pleasure, should be
brief, is a first rule for business
offices.
If you find the person, on whom
yon are calling, is busy, let him
finish what he's doing.
When you.converse, make your
remarks brief and to the point, Do
not rush through the interview as
if you had to make a train, but
state your case quickly and plain-
ly.
Other don'ts for the office call-
er: .
Don't hesitate to shake hands.
That's an old office custom.
Don't try to bluff your way past
the reception desk. If you have
a legitimate reason to gel into an
ofl-lce_ you'll be admitted. Once
you've tried to bluff, however, you
have closed the doer against fu-
ture calls. For receptionists, like
elephants, never forget.
Hint to the man who has a wo-
man caller: Rise when she enters
the room,just as you would at.

Eye Defects Blamed
On Scenic Changes
An expert in visual disleases
told his colleagues last -week that
,"modern man is iiving at the end
of his nose—and his eyes object."
Dr. Charles Sheard, director and
professor of biophysical research
at the Rochester, Minn., Mayo
Foundation, told the American
Academy of Optometry many eye
faults were due to the movement
of persons from farms into cities.
"The duties of . man's eyes thus
have been increased from merely
seeing a large piece of farm equip-
ment or an animal at the end of
the pasture, to seeing minute ob-
jects within arm's length."
