The high temperatures can cause the formation of heterocyclic amines (HCAs) which are carcinogenic. This happens with most meats, chicken, beef and pork and much less so with fish. Have you heard the term biological batteries? The rush is on to find an alternative energy source and hydrogen is a good one. It takes too much energy to produce hydrogen from water so researchers are using genetic manipulation to have the bacterium E. coli produce hydrogen as a by-product of its normal metabolism. This is in the very early stages of research but shows much promise. It was in 1988 that a new antidepressant, Prozac, burst on to the market. It quickly became the number one prescribed medication for depression. It has since spawned many similar ones since that time 20 years ago. It's common to experience cracked heels during the summer months. Here are two ways of treating this sometimes painful problem. First of all, ensure you drink enough water to keep the body hydrated. Secondly, choose a cream or lotion that contains urea. These types of creams help transport water that's in the product and on our skin to keep the skin moisturized. Regular applications are needed. `r tt� Huron Apothecary Ltd. Phone 235-1982, Re�aIL 440 Main St. Exeter Lr,_ "YOUR HEALTH CARE PHARMACY" PS j SECOND FLOOR PLAN 1043 SQ. FT.

FT. (201.9 M') JENISH HOUSE DESIGN LIMITED TWO STOREY Mr Plan Number 7-4-955 MODERN HOME WITH CHARM This two-storey, four-bedroom home not only exudes plenty of charm, it contains all the amenities that today's modern families expect. The front door, tucked under a covered porch to one side of the house, is embellished with mullioned side lights. To the left of the compact foyer is a den, featuring french doors that open onto a covered porch bordered by a painted railing that adds elegance to the facade. Just beyond the den, a coat cupboard and powder room are situated for easy use by both family and visitors. Ahead, past an L-shaped flight of stairs on the right, is the spacious great room, where a gas fireplace will warm this room as well as the open-plan dining room and kitchen. Natural light will flood into both the dining room and the great room through large windows. Near the windows, a narrow part of both rooms is open to the floor above. These rooms also enjoy access to a terrace overlooking the back garden, an ideal spot for summer -time meals and relaxation. The kitchen is separated from the other two rooms by an angled counter that conceals the dishwasher. A window over the sink will provide a garden view for the cook, and a large pantry guarantees always -welcome storage space. The laundry room, situated a few short steps from the kitchen, has access to the double garage, easing the task of carrying the groceries from the car. A coat cupboard is nearby. Upstairs, the master bedroom is situated at the back of the home for privacy. A large walk-in closet will provide enough space for even the most clothes -conscious couple. The corner windows will let light into the ensuite, which includes a soaker tub and a shower stall. The second, third and fourth bedrooms each contain one special feature — a built-in desk in one, a window seat in another and a walk-in closet in yet another. These bedrooms share a three-piece bathroom. A linen closet is conveniently placed nearby. Exterior finishes include shingled gables, horizontal siding, pilasters with brick bases, painted trim and decorative woodwork. Second -storey windows are partly mullioned.
