S''AFE WAY TO lIEDUCE
39 lbs. Off—and She
Feels Better
A woman who has found a sure,
)afe way to lose fat—without freak
dieting or dangerous drugs—writes:
"A year ago I was eaten up with
rheumatism, and was far too fat, I
weighed 154 lbs. and, as my height is
Only 5 feet 2 inches, you can judge
eay appearance. I have taken Krusch-
en regularly, and not dieted, and now
weigh 115 lbs,. which is just nice,
and, further, I feel better in health
'and my rheumatism has vanished."—
(Mrs.) D. N.
I Unlike certain drastic drugs,
Kruschen does not aim to reduce by
lrushing food through the body; its
+action is not confined to a , single
part of the system. It has a tonic in-
fluence upon every organ of elimina-
:Con, every gland, every nerve, every
vein. Gently, but surely, itrrids the
system of all fat -forming food re-
fuse, of all poisons and harmful acids
which give rise to rheumatism, digest-
ve
disorders, and many.other.ills...
A Million -Dollar
Industry
**********0•1*
Each returning spring Canada
gathers a harvest of the maple that
Iruns into millions of dollars. In the
lealendar year 1933 the Dominion ex-
orted 2,370,802 poulds of maple
'auger valued at $389,475, and 32,994
gallons of maple syrup valued at $32,
073; the produce of the four provin-
!ces—Quebec, Ontario, Nova Scotia
land New Brunswick. This is a strict-
ly native industry, having originated
With the Indians, Canada and the U-
nited States being the only countries
producing maple syrup and sugar.
The red man's methods were very
crude. He gashed the maple tree
with his tomahawk and caught the
dripping sap in a birch bark vessel.
Moose meat boiled in the maple sap
was given a sweetness much enjoyed
by the Indian. Before the advent of
metal or even earthen pots the boiling
'down process was done by dropping
heated stones into a hewed out log
filled with the sap.
According to a legend held by some
Indian tribes maple syrup was dis-
cevered in the following manner. One
flay a mighty hunter named Woksis
'went out in search of genie e-hile his
squaw, Mogue, busied herself with
preparing the meal against his home -
cooking. As was customary, she boil -
'eel some moose meat in the sweet ma-
ple water. Forgetting her charge, how
ever, the boiling sap thickened into a
syrup. When Woksis returned and
tasted the new dish he was so delight..
ed that he informed the tribe that a
heaven sent instructor had informed
th Mogua how to make this wonder -
Ifni new dish.
The size or: the yield each spring
depends largely upon climatic .:ondi-
Voris. With freezing nights and tha-
wing days, clear skies and moderate
'winds, the yield is good. Ordinarily
the run extends three weeks, but
sometimes it exceeds n month. From
10 to 20 gallons of sap are taken from
each tree, but it requires 50 gallons
of sap to make one gallon of syrup
or about six pounds of sugar.
The first run of the season is rich-
est. Gradually as tlfe season advan-
ces the sap becomes poorer. The fin-
al run is drawn off when the buds are
swelling and almost ready to burst.
• This poor quality of sap is called bud-
dy sap and has a peculiar flavor that
cannot be eliminated.
Until about sixty years ago there
was little improvement in the meth -
ds of sugar makers, but since that
time the advance has kept pace with
that of other branches of agriculture,
until it has become a more or less hi-
ghly organized commercial industry.

Splinter Causes
Death of Youngster
An inquest disclosed Clemerttia
Domingo de .Allende, aged. our, of
Cape Town, South Africa, died from
,septicaemla, resulting from a splinter
in a big toe.
A brother of the child said his sis-
ter came to him and complained of
having a splinter in her right toe. He
pulled it out with tweezers and found
it to be an inch long and fairly thick.
The wound bled a lot and he applied
iodine. His mother also put boracic
powder on the toe. His sister limped
a little afterwards and then died
suddenly, The district surgeon in a
post mortem examination found a
small splinter of wood still embedded
in the skin of the toe.

Death of Woman Who
Reveals Savings
The locked door of a worean's
room in London, Eng., outside which
its occupant was found dying some
time ago, has only now been opened
•to disclose a mystery which is puzzl-
ing the neighbourhood.
For although the tenant, Miss 0,
M. Kelly, aged 62, had for years
been in receipt of public and private
charities in North London, her room,
into which she had allowed no one
to enter, contained savings certifi-
cates to the value of $2,500, bank
notes for $60 and a costly gold watch.
The woman had been removed from
her home to the Edmonton public in-
stitution, where she died.
Perhaps the most extraordinary
find was a diary in which the dead
woman had kept systematic records
of persdns on whom she. had called
to ask for money.
Hundreds of names are given —
*21 on one day, 173 on anether, and
141 on a third. Opposite each name
appears the amount received.
„ Large quantities of face -powder,
lip -stick, and cosmetics were found in
the room. Neighbours state that the
woman was always well "made-up"
before she went out.
One local councillor, it appears,
had regularly sent her about 60
cents each week for many years, and
he is astonished at the disclosures
which have just been made.
A curious fact about the woman is
that she has neyer so far as can be
traced, been in receipt of poor re-
lief.
Back to the Kitchen
CHICAGO—Mrs. Leonora Z. Meder,
one of the United States best known
club women, -who is now president of
the Chicago business and professional
women's club, believes women belong
in kitchens and homes and not In
clubs.
"Every club woman and profes-
sional woman, young or old," she
said, "would gladly chuck her career
to marry a good man. Tbere are two
kinds of women—those-that men love
and marry, and those who belong to
clubs."
Jibing the traditional club woman
a little more, Mrs. Meder added:
"I am active in club and profes-
sional work myself, but 1 see the
error of my ways. If I were as good
a cook as 1 am a lawyer, I'd own
Chicago. Well, it's back to the spin-
ning wheel for women now. And
back to the kitchen. That's where
women belong. Getting the vote
didn't do women any good—they still
vote as their husbands tell them."

40 per cent. Apple
Crop at Strathroy
STRATHROY—.The apple crop in
this district will not be more than 40
per cent, of normal, judging from pre-
sent indications, according to a dis-
trict spray supervisor. •It is also re-
ported that the recent frost damaged
fruit trees more than was at first
thought and peaches, owing to the
hard winter, are a total loss except
in a few well protected positions.
Prospects for cherry, plum and pear
crops are more encouraging, Many
apple trees have been killed outright,
the bark lifted and in some cases the
boles are split,

How to Tie Your
Scarf for Smartness
Scarf etiquette is something of
a science these days when often the
effect of an entire costume may de-
pend upon this one accessory. Solid
colors are always better for the
costume which may be figured, strip •
ed or otherwise designed, and the
reverse for ensembles of one color.
But color isn't the whole thing. The
method of knotting or twisting or
drapping the throat is an all-im-
portant factor in scarf manipulation.
The simplest method is probably
knitting the fabric once around the
throat like a handkerchief. Longer
ones should be rolled and twisted —
not folded — around the neck with
the ends hanging loose. Still others
are knotted Ascot fat -it -don and worn
inside the jacket. Some silk hand-
kerchiefs are seen in plain patterns,
folded three -cornered around the
neck and held with a sports pin (one
of those huge safety pins or a long
golf club, tennis racket, ski -shoe IV
hockey stick in silver.)
Jewelry, generally speaking, is not
worn with sport costumes except for
pins on caps or at the neck line of
the dressier angora sweaters and
enamel worn on the lapel or jackets
as novelties. Aviation jewelry ac-
cessories consist of nuts and bolts,
wings, propellors and such fixed lip
as rings, bracelets, necklaces and
pins, and particularly the nets and
bolts are used. as buttons. snaps,
clips and buckles.
When is a Married
Woman Not Married
ERIE, Pa,—When is a married wo-
man not a married woman?
That's the thorn piercing the side
of Erie's school board, now that it has
barred the hiring of married teachers,
Mrs, Bertha W. Mahoney started the
storm by asking the board if a woman
teacher, married and separated from
her husband but not divorced, was
eligible for a contract.
"I know of two or three women,”
she continued, "who are now living
with their husbands and not getting
along so well. They would be willing
to give up married life if they could
be appointed teachers,"
Superintendent of schools John C.
Diehl thought that women not living
with their husbands are eligible.
But this brought a chorus of
"No's" from the board.
"That might open the way for
fraud," one director pointed out.
"We might have some married wo-
men leaving 'their husbands to be-
come teachers and then returning to
their husbands again. Then we
couldn't break the contract. Let them
get a legal divorce first,"
Exasperated, John Macdanald, board
president said: "Let's get a legal
opinion."
It IS not so much the being exempt
from faults, as the having overcome
them, that is an advantage to us. —

German Author
Says War Certain
Paris—Emil Ludwig, exiled Ger-
man author, believes war is inevite
able because "dictators are deluding
youth, which seeks something more
dramatic than democracy."
In Les Annales Ludwig writes:
"War is not being encouraged by •
cannon manufacturers or the chan-
cellories, but in universities and
schools, and in mass demonstrations •
organized by dictators as a back-
ground for their efforts."
A united Europe does not appeal to
youth because "it possesses neither
battle flags nor anthems nor an
avenger's creed."
Ludwig said that William II no '
more desired war than Chancellor
Hitler, but that "war was made in- I
evitable by noisy, nationalistic dis•
plays of power,"
