During a lull in the conversa- tion at a dinner -party the hostess was unfortunate enough to emit a loudL rasping hiccup. A French- man, sitting by her, immediately apologized profusely, as if he had' committed the faux pas. When the ladies had left the dining - room, an American asked the Frenchman why he had acted. in this manner. "As monsieur knows, we are a chivalrous people," was the re- ply. "I saw that madame was em- barrassed, so I tried to throw .the' blame on myself." Presently the men joined the ladies upstairs. After a little while the American found him- self in conversation .with his hostess in the middle of a group of guests. Suddenly the alarming incident was repeated - the hostess hic- cuped again. The American turned quickly to 'the assembled guests, and an- nounced with an engaging smile, "(Folks, this one is on me'," "1'm sorry, anadam," said the attendant at the movie, "but you can't take that dog into the theatre." "How absurd," protested the woman. "What harm can pictures do a little dog like this?" Pat had bought a v'atch guar- anteed for twelve months. At the end of nine months, how- ever, he reappeared at the shop and complained that the watch had stopped six months earlier when it had fallen into the pigs' trough. "But why didn't you bring it back at once?" inquired the jew- eller. "How could I?" replied Pat, "We only killed the pig yester- day."

One day the officer in charge of the prison camp took him aside and said: "Look here, if you'll shut your mouth I'll make you pan officer in the Italian army." "O.K." said the Albanian. Next day Mussolini visited them, shook hands with the Al- banian, and remarked: "So you are now an officer in the great Italian army?" 'That's right," can the ans- wer.

It was suggested that the home owner go to a reputable nursery- man and select a tree of a hardy, long-lived variety which will adtl permanent value to the property. The owner should avoid one that will grow so rapidly as to be seriously injured by the first wind or ice storm, or one whose roots will come to the surface and injure lawns or will clog sewer lines. Some hardy trees are naturally low -branched or east dense shade and if used, should be placed where. they will not interfere with lawns, driveways and walks. beer the corrrsponclieg pee- lotl ox 1940, an inereasc oC 9Oil,206 or 24,4ei , He's Off to See the Wizards Foreign Minister Matsu.rlta of Japan, above, last week was travelling across vast Siberia to- ward a meeting with Hitler - and possibly Stalin - that the axis is touting as world-shaking.

WASTE OF HUMAN LIVES A, G. Partridge, president of the league, paid a tribute to the com- merBial car "safe drivers.'' They had driven 162,735,000 accident - free miles. He said gross economic loss in. Ontario traffic accidents reaches $20,000,000 to $25,000,000, 000 yearly. The war will tax human and ma- terial resources to the limit, Mr. Partridge said, and to survive all waste must be eliminated.

S/ow Burning CIGARETTE PAPERS NONE FINER MADE v w v_y a•e-r-m Haw C L BY ANNE ASHLEY Q. How can I prepare a simple furniture polish? A. A furniture polish that can be used on the finest woods can be made of one part vinegar, with equal parts of linseed oil and turpentine. Q, How can I prevent mus- tard plasters from blistering? A. They will not blister, and the result will be better, if the paste is mixed with the white of an egg, or with waren camphorat- ed oil instead of hot water. Q. How can I remove white spots on the dining room table caused by heat? A. Apply, in the order nam- ed, kerosene, alcohol, and linseed or sweet oil. A different cloth should be used for each of these applications. Rub in the linseed oil until the spot disappears. Q. How can I make a whip- ped cream substitute? A. Grate one apple, add two or three tablespoons of sugar and one egg white, then beat until light. This makes an excellent substitute for whipped cream. Q. How can I scale fish more easily? A.

Weather and Famine Biblical and secular history are full of instances of famines, and these were no doubt caused by droughts. There are many re- cords of crops suffering from in- sufficient rains and of the in't- portatio., of grain to the famine stricken coutries. Not only Pal- estine but other countries of the Mediterranean Sea were and are subject to droughts. Italy less than Greece, however, but it also suffers from low water supply. In these countries it was neces- sary to send away foe grain, generally to Egypt. One of Nature's sources of supply of iodine is in the skins of certain fruits, inriuding ap- ples and plums. • ID The Metter quality of Cora ring' Mineral assures faster live atock gains, healthier anima/a and more grata.
