FALL
A fall can mean a lot of thing's.
One starts in late September;
But there are falls of other kinds.
Oh, my! don't you remember?
The one a baby always gets, when
untrained feet first tread.
You pick it up, surprised to find
its brains still in its head.
Then older grown -some eyes and
smiles, backed up by Cupid's
' dart,
Produce a fall that's sure to leave
big cracks in someone's heart.
Ah, yes -we live through many
kinds; but I have found the fall

Sue -"A friend of mine named
his child Carol because she was
born on Christmas."
John -"She? I thought a carol
was a hymn."
READ IT OR NOT: There are
from 16 to 21 bones in the full
length tail of a dog.
And we are all 1n the same boat:
Quiggle - "Don't you find it
hard to meet expenses these
days?"
Peewitt-"Hard! I should say
not. Why, man alive, I meet ex-
penses at every turn."
Some young women appear to
smoke cigarettes for the purpose
of showing off their colored nails
and finger jewelry by extending
the hand conspicuously to flick off
the ashes.
Mrs. Jones had just been pre-
sented with a beautifuly new fur
coat by her husband:
Mrs. Jones (as she stood admir-
ing herself in the long mirror) --
"You know, Oswald, one really
can't help feeling sorry for the
poor thing that was skinned for
this."
Oswald (who was going through
his handbook to see if he had any
money left, nodded grimly) -"I
, appreciate your sympathy, my
dear."
Baseball Fan (boasting) -"I've
seen these teams play so often I
bet I can tell the score of this old
ball game before it starts."
Novie-"A11 right then, what is
it?"
Baseball Fan - "Nothing to
nothing -before it starts."
Two girls were reading a news-
paper in a street car.
First -"I see that So -and -So,
the octogenarian, •is dead. Now
what on earth is an Octogen-
arian?"
Second -"Search me, but they-
're a• sickly lot. You never heard
of 'one but what he is dying,"
There is one good reason. why
the old saying of -give until it
hurts -is never very popular.
Most of us bruise easily.
Friend -"Did the doctor take
your temperature?"
Patient - "1 dunno. All I've
missed so far is my watch."

"APPOINTMENT WITH DEATH"
By Agatha Christie
When in doubt, read Agatha
Christie. You'll find "Appointment
With Death" one of this author's
slickest, with Hercule Pqirot, the
little Belgian snoop, in top form;
naturally, he's run across a murder
while doing Jerusalem, Petra, An -
nam and parts adjacent. And there's
no use concealing the fact that the
corpse is old Mrs. Boynton, a fright-
ful American woman touring the
world with five members of her
bullied and frightened family; she's
described by one of the characters
as "a distorted old Buddha -a gross
spider in the center of a web" and
that's too good for her. Suspects in-
clude Raymond Boynton, a stepson
overheard saying "You see, don't
you, that she's got to be killed?"
(Hercule heard him say it one night
at the Solomon Hotel,) Also Miss
Sarah King, a medical young wo-
man with whom Raymond is in
love, and half': a dozen other rela-
tives and bystanders.
• This seems to be the sea-
son for whopping tall solutions; at
and rate, Mrs. Christie springs a

Lived 115 Years
In Native Town
Still alert, Sari Fatma, a Mulat-
to woman, has just celebrated her
115th birthday in her native town
of Kozane, Asia Minot'.
Her two sons and two daugh-
ters, aged respectively 97, 95, 92
and 90, accompanied by their chil-
dren, grandchildren and great
grandchildren, totalling 117, ar-
rived from all parts of the coun-
try to join in the festivities which
had been organized by local peo-
ple.
Born in 1823, Sari was married
at 17 to a corporal of the Otto-
man army, five years her senior.
He died in 1928, when 110, after
serving more than 60 years in the
army. He took part in the Crim-
ean war, 1856, and in several oth-
er campaigns.

House No Poor Hens Pm -Win-
ter Advice
Pullets for the laying flock
must have full opportunity right
from batching time up to matur-
ity, to make normal, healthy
growth. This 1'equires first, an
adequate supply of the proper
feeds, and, second, good environ-
mental conditions. Overcrowding
should be avoided and precau-
tions taken to guard the health of
the birds. Any birds showing signs
of disease or weakness should be
disposed of immediately. It should
be constantly borne in mind that
the maintenance of a healthy,
profitable flock requires that cull-
ing should be a continuous process
the year round,
Proper Feeding
Commencing when the first few
pullets start to lay, it is a recom-
mended practice to go over the
pullet flock every week or two
moving to their permanent win-
ter quarters all those that seem
almost ready to lay or have al-
ready started, states L. A. Gnae-
dinger, Head Poultryman, Domin-
ion Experimental Station, Len-
noxville, P.Q. Feeding should
have been such that at this time,
the birds shouLl be heavily flesh-
ed and fairly fat. The subsequent
feeding program should be design-
ed to prevent any marked decrease
in body weight. Each bird should
be carefully examined at this time '
and any that are poorly fleshed,
very small, or deformed should be
culled out. Heavy, sustained egg
production demands healthy, well-
developed bodies and rugged con-
stitutions..
In summary, one might say:
"Grow good birds and house no
poor ones."
Canada's Honey
Worth $22198,400
Ontario is normally the chief
source of honey production in Can-
ada. Last year, however, owing to
an unusually low yield in that pro-
vince, Manitoba came first. Total
honey production for the Dominion
was Iow, but that,: were Increases
over the previous year In four pro-
vinces. Canada is on an export
basis on the honey trade, but im-
ports have been rising lately. An
increasing trat'c has also been de-
veloped in package bees.
The total produ'tion of honey in
:Canada last year was 21,733,200
pounds, valued at $2,198,400. The
output was unusually large in 1936
at 28,233,800 pounds, having a value
of $2,851,700. In 1935 production
amounted to 24,291,000 pounds, and
in 1933 to 22,915,800 pounds. The
number of hives last year was 391,-
300, compared with 370,000 in 1936;
358,700 in 1935, and 335,70C in 1933.
Cockroach Smuggler
County jailer at Amarillo (Tex-

--a cigarette tied to its back -
was making regular deliveries un-
der the doors of the cell.

SLEEPING SICKNESS CURE
Edwin Moore, of Drummer
township, near Peterborough, Ont.,
left hospital last week apparently
cured of an attack of sleeping
sickness. Credit for his recovery
was given vitamin treatments ad-
ministered by Dr. J. C. Smith, of
Lakefield.
Moore, who contracted the dis-
ease August 29, was removed to
hospital and Dr. Smith began ad-
ministering injections of synthetic
Vitamin B-1. In a short time, he
said, the patient who had sunk
into a coma began to rally.
VOICE FOR .THE DUMB
A new talking device which
takes the place of the human voice
when the vocal cords refuse to
function, was described before the
Toronto Kiwanis Club last week
by Dean T. Smith, of Los Angeles,
Supervisor of Public Activities for
the Southern California Telephone
Company.
A tube placed in the throat en-
ables a husky or voiceless man to
speak by the movement of his lips
and Mr. Smith instanced this, as
one of the many advancements
now being made by telephony.
THYROID AND "SIXTH SENSE"
.New evidence of the existence
of a sixth sense, as in clairvoyance
and mind reading, is being exam-
ined by savants at McGill Univer-
sity who have been interested in
experiments carried out at Duke
University in the United States.
The latest sensational evidence
indicates that there is a tie-up
between the thyroid gland and
the existence of the sixth sense.
When this gland does not pro-
duce sufficient secretion, ordinary-
ily indicated by dullness and lack
of activity on the part of the in-
dividual, it has been found in two
notable cases at Ieast that there
is an extra activity of the sub-
conscious mind.

RUBBER BAND "SNAPS"
A rubber band snapping back
from the stretched state attains an
extremely high velocity. Its speed
has been clocked by ultra high-

found to be 204 miles an hour,
states Dr. Gustavus J. Esselen,
chemical consultant, in whose Bos-

COME FROM MILKY WAY
Dr. Arthur H. Compton, Univer-
sity of Chicago physicist, believes
that he has found the answer to
one of the major mysteries of the
scientific world -the point of ori-
gin of cosmic rays.
"The question was whether cos-
mic rays come from the milky way
in our galaxy or from some point
beyond the galaxy," he said at
Vancouver last week, "The indi-
cations are that they come from
the milky way,"
