So they talked in subdued voices becoming to the occasion. The doctor came again at nine and looked grave. Miles's tempera- ture had risen. "A touch of pneumonia, I'm afraid, Lady Pencarrow. He will have to be very careful. I'll look in again in the morning. And, by the way, I think you'd better have a nurse. I'll send one along." "He won't like it, I'm afraid," said Norah, now truly alarmed. "It will be too much for you and she will make him take his medicine, even if he doesn't like it." With a white face, Norah came into the drawing -room. "How is he now, Mother?" asked Genevieve. "It's pneumonia," "Oh, Mother: Don't worry. Pll stay and help you nurse him," and Gen- evieve was instantly at her mother's side, "Don't worry; he is awfully strong." "Not his chest, dear; he is always inclined to get colds that settle there. Kitty went out with Norah and for a moment Robin and Genevieve were alone, Ile took her hand and smfled a little sadly. She leant against his shoulder and he kissed her Bair and Her eyes and her lips, "We can't now, Robin; not tonight. It's like hitting a man when he's down."

For a while she sat and no word was spoken, but as he looked up at her the hard protec- tive shell that had grown about his and behind which he had imprisoned his love for his children, seemed to break. "I wish you had been a sou, Gen- evieve. You would not have failed me. If I --if I go keep the fam- ily together. You can do it. I see my mistakes now, but- I hope my children will forgive me. It was for their sakes; I wanted then to have the best of life, 1 wanted a Penear- row to follow after me. Robin will, but he is not quite a Pencarrow, and Kitty is terribly ambitious for him. She bas plans, great plans, for him, away from here, Don't let them re- peat my folly and drive the family apart. I rely on you, Genevieve, You won't fail me, I know." Ile spoke with au effort, brokenly, and she did not interrupt him, After- wards he Iay back, his eyes closed, spent by the exertion. Genevieve sat holding his hand, overwhelmed by the manifestation of his faith in her. Despite their re- peated .conflict and moved by the simple declaration of his failure, o confession not easy for him to make he now placed the onus of carrying on the family tradition upon her; not Kelly, the farmer; not Pat of the sea, They had made their choice and he acknowledged their right to do so. He did not say how it was to be done, but upon her he placed the burden of keeping the family to- gether and seeing that Pencarrow followed Pencarrow in the firm. She pressed her lips to the limp hand on the coverlet, and Norah, who had crept along in her dressing - gown, saw Miles open his eyes and look with infinite love and gratitude at the bent head of Genevieve. Kelly was sent for and Sister Mary Agnes came from the convent.

Toronto Actress Scores In London London, Eng. — Elaine Wodson, brilliant youpng Toronto actress, secured another success on the Lon- don stage last week in the revival of "Happy and Glorious" by Wilfred Walter. Miss Wodson had earned the un- qualified praise of London critics for her performance in "Alien• Corn" at Christmastide. She was commended again for an unusual role. "Happy and Glorious" is described as a "cavalcade of suffering," It has only two characters, played by the author and Miss Wodson. "Her acting never Iost its delicate certainty," said the Morning Post. "Her success was triumphant and complete." The Daily Mail's critic declared "it is a compliment to Miss Wodson's undoubted talent that she triumphs in a play that would test the most experienced actress."

Lord Ba- den-Powell, of Gilweli, •founder and Chief of the Boy Scout movement of the entire world, and one of Bri- tain's heroes of the South African campaigns. Lord Baden-Powell will arrive in Ottawa in May, accompanied by Lacly Baden-Powell, who is chief of the Scouts' sister movement, the Girl Guides, and other members (,of their family. To Be Welcomed Here PIaits have been made through the Boy Scout Association, in which the Governor General is Chief .Scout for Canada, to welcome the chief, and all Scouts and Guides of Ottawa and district will probably have an 'op- portunity of seeing the ?ran who created their organization ' for the first time. Baden-Powell, as he is familiarly known to all Britishers, is ihesou of a parson -professor, and Was born in London, England, on February 22, 1857. At 19 he was commissioned in the 13th Hussars as a subaltern, and saw service in India. His 4'ar- eer was both exciting and adventur- ous, In addition he was 'engaged insecret service work in South Africa; Turkey, Russia and Germany. It was during the seige of Mafe- king in the Boer War that he is re- puted to have first organized a corps of young men to assist the belea- guered forees in scouting and other supplementary military work, and the outcome of this little unit was the Boy Scout movement which spread first through British lands, and today embraces practically every civilized country in the World.. Set High Standard Baden-Powell put many of ' his ideas for young men into books and articles and he set up a high stand- ard of manly conduct for growing boys to live up. to, So rapidly did his ideas fire youth with ambition the toble'suppoi 'ani -orison $em.ent of Lady Baden -.Powell. Itis Majesty the. King gave impe- tus to the government by his offic.. Lal patronage, and Baden-Powell was later known as the first man to en- ter Buckingham Palace in "shorts" now a familiar item of attire for 'boys and young men. Handy Newspapers There are many uses for old news- papers. In fact, if the housewife only realized it, they are a valuable help in. reducing work and increasing comfort. , Most women never think of it, but when they stand ironing, for in- stance their feet will ache intoler- ably. This "ache" can be most eas- ily avoided by making a thick mat out of old newspapers, And all stand- ing jobs can be relieved of much of their strain if wads of newspapers are:,put on the floor. A.' newspaper "mat" needs twelve large newspapers placed one on top of the other, folded over, "packed" carefully so that they do not slip, and bound at, each end with string. It will last a long time and will be found to be a boon to aching feet. A similar mat can be made and used on wet days when there are youngsters in the house. Placed just outside the door when the children are expected home from schoolit will save much time indoors, as the most of the mud can be wiped off the boots on the ,mat outside. The wad can then be taken indoors and the soiled top removed and burned. At the back door such a "mat" saves the housewife, when there are child- ren who will scamper in and out. Grease on a stove can -be cleared off by rubbing with a wad of paper, Washing-up loses much of its terrors if the plates are first cleared of the grease paper. As a polisher for the windows, newspaper will be found more than useful as the smell of the printers' ink helps to keep away the insects. Blankets, elothes and furs should not be laid away for long per- iods unless layers of newspaper have been placed between the folds.

TORONTO Serve the ib est Tea Deaths by Cancer In Recent Years Show an Increase Advance in Treatment But Great Deal Remains to Be Done in Canadian Research Ottawa. -- The following figures will indicate quite clearly the rapi- dity with which cancer is increas- ing in Canada. The death -rate per 100,000 of populaton from 1926 to 1933, the last year for which statis- tics are available, was as follows: 1926, 81; 1927, 83; 1928, 88; 1929,. 90; 1930, 91; 1931, 92.4; 1932, 95.5; 1933, 100. . This rapid increase in cancer death -rate applies to all civilized countries. It is generally agreed. that facilities for the diagnosis and f treatment of cancer are markedly i deficient in practically' all coun- I tries. Son1e countries, in recogni- tion of this fact, have taken steps to augment their facilities for ding- nosis and treatment of the disease. IESTABLISH RADIUM INSTITUTES France has established a Radium Institute and possesses a quantity 1 of radium which is allocated to a number of treatment oentres. At Stockholm, the Swedish Govern- ( nient has built a Cancer Institute, which is recognized as a model for the rest of the world. To this in- stitute, patients are brought from all parts of Sweden for treatment, The Government pays for the trans- portation of the patients and pro- vides treatment free of charge, when necessary. The radium used in that institute is also provided by the Government. This institatipn, has been operating for some years and it is interesting to briefly -scan the results arrived at. _ Cures were obtained in 68 ger. aeessettliaacanaers of the k n t rase face; '68' per-. cent,_ of 36' hp vers; 62 per cent. of 113 cancels:.:..' the mouth; -22:4 per cent. of 500 cases of cancer of till neck of the womb; 40 per cent. At 46.-' airs t of cancer of the body bf the *crab All of these cases were what' -`is known as five-year-old cures, that -is. to say, a relapse had not occurred five years after treatment. Taking all cancers as they come to the Radium Institute at Stock- holm, there are five-year cures in 38.5 per cent. of all cases and this is almost entirely due to the use of radium. Norway and Denmark are almost equal to Sweden in their fa- cilities for treating cancer, INCREASING RADIUM SUPPLIES. Everywhere efforts are being made to increase available supplies of ra- dium. and' provide expert treatment for all cancer patients. During the past three. years, rapid advance has been made in Canada — diagnostic centres and clinics have been estab- lished and the amount of radium in. creased but a great deal more re- mains to be done, The fact must be emphasized ,again and again that treatment of cancer, if it is to be successful, whether it takes the form of surgical excision, the cautery, ra- dium or X-ray, must be undertaken early and it must be reiterated that an essential part of the campaign against cancer consists in the edu- cation and intelligent co-operation of the public, so that early diagnosis and prompt treatment may be ob- tained. What is required now in Canada is intensive work and the closest co-operation of physicists, clinicians, radiologists and pathologists and, above all, the training of experts, both in diagnosis and treatment. Let The Sunshine In The spring sunshine is worth a lcii to you, and should be allowed to enter through the widows as well as the doors. Take a sun bath through the window as much and as often as you can. It will do you a world of good. Bask in it end sit in it, and let it trickle clown your back. Take the March rays this way and you will fit yourself for the coming of Spring. They talk about spring fever or lassitude. Try this treat- ment and you will probably be ready for the garden work when it arriv- es, for you will arrive to meet it.
