E .. DAY
Rheumatic Pains Relieved
by Kruschen
Here Is a noteworthy instance
of the manner in which damp wea-
Cher can affect the joints of one
who is subject to rheumatic pains.
"I had been suffering from
r4ieumatiszn very badly," a man
`mites, "and had such pains in my
joints that I could hardly bear it,
On a wet day especially. It pained
pee terribly to use my arms, and
was hardly able to work. I tried
WO different remedies, but I was
still as bad after the treatment.
"Then I was told to try Krus-
then Salts, which quickly brought
3'elief. So of oollrse 1 have kept
n with it, and t am now muds
er and have never felt so fit
years. I used to feel so 1Ylis-
evable and sluggish, but now it k
pleasure to be able to work." ---
The pains and stiffness of rheu-
a'tisn7 are often caused by uric
u cry;±Ass ;fx the muscles and
pts. The numerous salts in
uscben assist in stimulating the
internal organs to healthy, regular
activity, and help them to elimin-
ate excess uric acid.
Postal i Figures
Point pwar'd.
Figure's For Jtute Show Con -
limited decrease
Post Office revenues, index of Ca-
nadian business conditions, again
point upward. Figures for June
show that the increase reported in
May is continued, according to a
statement released lately by the
Hon. N. A. McLarty, K.C., M.P., the
Postmaster General,
Postage sales for June showed n
total of $3,317,783.15 an increase of
3180,338.04, or nearly pix percent,
over June, 1988.
Money Orders, Postai Notes up
Other cheering signs of improve-
ment aro also noticed. An.(ncrease
of 34.51,192.28 or nearly five per
cent. is revealed in the statement
aS postage sales for the first quar-
ter of the present fiscal year.:Pos-
tal note business 1s also higher, and
in June money orders paid were up
by 1.7 per cent. and postal nota
paid by 3,6 per cent. as well.
Throwing tacks on a highway is
against the law in 19 states of the
American Union.
Comedian Jack Benny At
anff
Only Chief Jacob Two -Young -Mian is impressed with the ssriousnese of
the situation when he's photographed with comedian Jack Benny, LEFT,
and Murray Adaskin, of Toronto, RIGHT, en the golf course at the
Banff Springs hotel.
Asking Too Much
"Those new people across the
road seem very devoted," said Mrs.
Jones wistfully to the newspaper
which hid her husband.
.A. rustle of the sheet was all the
reply she got, tut she was used to
that.
"Every time he goes out he
kisses her, and gees on throwing
kisses all down the road. Edward,
why don't you do that?"
"Me!" snorted the man behind
the news. "I don't know her:"

hi The Fashion
A collier's wife, wishing to
appear in the fashion during
a holiday by the sea, decided
to buy something up-to-date.
She entered a local shop,
and the young assistant who
served her was astounded at
the following request: "An
waant a nighty wi' legs on."
—e—
Chairman (addressing county
council meeting) : "Gentlemen, we
have had the trouble and expense
of sending our lunatics to Dotty -
field Asylum for a long time past.
I am pleased to tell you that we
have now built an asylum for our-
selves."
Reminder
"Nothing is more important
than breathing deeply." Con-
tinuously breathing matters

Critic
f.,.Critic ,'xt The Hearth
As a schoolgirl, Mrs. Peter Ca-
zalet was more helpful than most
daughters who triticiso their par -
mats.
Her father, P. G. Wcdehouse,
used to try out his jokes on her.
If she said "Net funny," he
thought again.
Oneofhis e• r icr booksu a
...1 had
dedication acknowledging her as-
sistance. It ran like this: "To my
daughter Lennox e, without whose
constant aid anal encouragement
this book would have been writ-
ten in half the tinge."

)"or Many People
A Motoring Correspondent
says life without cars would be
dull and uninteresting... But,
es pedestrians point out, there
would be more of it.
Well-Connsidered
At the age of ninety a man is
still likely to be rather rash, giv-
en to hasty, immature judgments,.
Ask such a fellow how he has hap-
pened to live so long, and he will
tell you is it due to his habit of
early rising. But at the age of
104 a man's judgment is ripe and
full. And so we hail the sound
words of Dr. William E. Thompson
of Bethel, Ohio, who is beginning
his 105th year. The reason for
his longevity? "It's because I
haven't died," says Dr. Thompson.
The new crinoline fashion,
sponsored by the Queen, has cap-
tured English women.

BY ROBERTA LEE
1.—Is it permissible for one's
calling cards to have any kind of
decorations on them?
2.—When a man is dining with
a woman, should he give his own
or the woman's order to the wait-
er first?
3.—When is a guest privileged
to leave a 'wedding reception?
4.—Should the dessert spoon
and fork be placed on the table
with the rest of the implements
that are necessary for a meal?
5.—Isn't it very poor taste to
wear "dressy" clothes when travel-
ling?
6.—Shouldn't a boy of sixteen
rise when an elderly person enters
the room?
1.—No. The cards should be
plain white, of good quality, en-
graved in black,' and without de-
corations of any kind. 2.—He
should consult his companion and
give her order first, followed by
his own. 3.—One may leave any
time desired after speaking to the
bride and bridegroom. 4.—No;
they are brought in on the dessert
plate after the other dishes are re-
moved from the table. 5.—Yes;
it ie entirely out of place and im-
mediately stamps one as not know-
ing what is proper. 6.—Yes; a
well-trained youth will do so.

NEW DIPHTHERIA
ANTITOXIN
Development in England of a
new, highly purified diphtheria an-
titoxin, said to be more rapidly
and completely absorbed from sub-
cutaneous tissues than the Ameri..
can product, is described in a re-
cent issue of The Journal of the
.American Medical Association.
`the new antitoxin is the result of
the development by the Wellcome
Laboratories, England, of a meth-
ed for large scale purification
based on the fractional action of
enzymes (ferments). The possi.-
bility that such enzyme purifica-
tion may be generally applicable
to antiserums demands prompt in-
vestigation, the Journal declares
editorially.
DEBUT OF AN ALLOY
A new metal alloy that contains
only 7 per cent. iron but is claim-
ed to be stronger than any known
steel was reported by the Westing-
house research laboratories at East
Pittsburgh, Pa. The new allow is
composed of nickel, cobalt, chro-
mium, titanium, iron manganese,
aluminum, silicon and carbon, and
is tentatively known as K -42-B.
GERM CULTURE
Success for the first time in the
growing of disease -producing bac-
teria of the family of hemolytic
streptococci on a medium contain-
ing only pure chemical compounds,
a step expected to be very helpful
in the study of the nature of these
enemies of man, is reported in a
recent issue of Science by Drs.
Brian L. Hutchings and D. W.
Woolley of the University of Wis-
consin. Until now these bacteria
have been grown only in complex
media containing tissue extracts
the constituents of which were not
fully known.
AGE OF ROCKS
RECALCULATED
The geological strata of the sur-
face of the earth are only about:
half as old as was formerly believ-
ed. This change has been made as
the result of recalculation of the
age of rocks based on a re-exam-
ination of their content of radio-
active material by newer methods
and a new check-up on standards.
made at the Massachusetts Insti-
tute of Technology by a group -roe --
scientists. The total age of the;
earth remains about the same, 2,-
000.000,000 years, but the rela-
tively recently laid down strata,
post Devonian, which was suppos-
ed to have been formed about
210,000,000 years ago proves to
be much younger, about 130,000,-
000 years.

EY ANNE ASHLEY
Q.—How can I remedy perspir-
ing feet?
A.—One of the best remedies
is to powder the stockings with
one part of chlorinated lime, one
part prepared chalk, and one part
of powdered starch. Also bathe
the feet daliy in cold water.
Q.—How can I remove screws
that are obstinate or rusty?
A.—Apply a heated poker to
the heads of the screws. When
the screws have become hot, they
can be removed very easily.
Q.—How can I clean soiled
eggs?
A.—Soiled eggs can be cleaned
by washing them in a solution of
baking soda and water.
Q. How can I thicken fruit or
berry pies, other than by the use
of cornstarch or flour?
A.—Try using a scant table-
spoonful of quick -cooking tapioca,,,,
This not only adds flavor to the
pie, but absorbs the excess juice.
Q.—How can I remove mildew
from white clothes?
A.—Rub the clothes with the
juice of a raw tomato, sprinkle
with salt, and lay in the sun to
dry. Repeat several times if ne-
cessary.

w' :fats Are
Of Three Periods
$mile Age, Charlotte Cordaay's
Bonnet Postilion
At the end of a long sartorial
drought, the new fall hats are now
'fIoeding the town. Even if you ad-
ore silly ones you'll scarcely resent
these, they're so becoming, not to
say flattering. Generaly speaking,
they fall into three periods; the
amusing 1880 type to set off your
bustle; Charlotte Corday's revolu-
tionary — in more ways than one
—bonnet, and the charming little
postilion with a Jockey brim guar-
anteed to do something for you.
Must Let Hair Grow Again
But if you're now cool and com
fortabie and sensible -cat a very
short summer hair -do, it's high
time to start letting it grow. The
new hats are all at their best with
Burls or a thick knot — like the
Duchess of Windsor's at the nape
of the neck, As a rule, they call for
hair drawn off the ears, generally
with little curls or rolls tucked
away under the hat, The Charlotte
Corday bonnet ant' the crinoline
outfits call out for cute little
bunches of curls on the forehead —
and if you don't want to have to re-
sort to faise hair revivals, you'd
better start growing s't'nething for
the barber to play with,
FARM COLUMN
FIGHTING FOES
OF FALL WHEAT
The protection of seed wheat
from its invisible enemies, the
spores of smut and the root rot or-
ganisms that lie concealed on or in
t fie surf ac a layer of the seed, is
e r- he.ateasereeble precautions
'"'ivery, , farmer should take against
possible failure with his fall wheat
crop, says W. A. McKenzie, soils
chemist, Chatham, Ont.
Everyone is acquainted with
smut. In the summer it becomes
visible, and the damage it does can
to some extent be estimated. But
few people seen to realize, as yet,
the serious annual toll taken by
the root -rot organisms. These
work underground, reducing the
stand and sapping the vitality of
much of the grain which does sur-
vive. Even on farms where this
menace has not yet become seri-
ous it is good business to use pre-
ventive measures.
Ethyl Mercury Phosphate
It is fortunate that modern
methods of control• for both smut
and root -rot have been so improv-
ed as to be very highly effective.
The potent substance, ethyl mer-
cury phosphate, now on the mar-
ket, controls most of the grain

smuts, including covered smut of
wheat and also the root -rots. Con-
sidering that it is inexpcsive and
easy to apply, there seems little
reason for neglectin gthis added
protection.
This mercuric dust treatment
may be applied days or even weeks
ahead of seeding time and aids
rather than injures germination.
This treatment is the result of
long experimentation and has
been submitted to the most criti-
cal field tests. Today it stands
far ahead of all other seed treat-
ments.
