The Wingham Advance Times, 1928-08-16, Page 711, .f''h.1,i sCIay, August 16th, 1028 Mainly For Women (By Dorothy pix) sisisms NO MORTAL IMMUNE FROM MATING CALL (By pr. Louis E. 13isch). Love can be found in many shades .•degress and varieties. At one extreme is love of self, a kind in which no one can take pride, At the other ex- treme is the most praiseworthy type that exists—love for a cause, a prin- ciple, or one's country -the kind of love for which people will lay down their lives. Love between opposite sexes is the special brand of love we hear most .about. It concerns each and every one ofus intimately. We can't get away from it. But that is not so important, The point is that this sort Of love is al- ways - vays ronLantic love! . Romantic love is invariably colored u ,by idealism; hope and beauty. And that is the trouble with it. It is too -dreamy, too enticing, too ensnaring. Romantic love, in fact, has all the earmarks of . a disease! A person catches love like he catches measles. Ask the individual who is sick with measles or the one who is sick with love , how it happened and in either case the answer will be vague. Each willguess but neitherwill know ex- .ctly, A, glance, an expression, a costume, a setting, an atmosphere—the most minute and indefinable kind of thing may strat an infatuation going. Then, when romantic love has taken =.a firm hold, the afflicted ones without question are i11. I have seen cases with poor appet- ite, loss of weight, palpitation~ of the heart, sleeplessness, inability to con- centrate on work, general restlessness, muscular twitchings, headaches and •dizziness. On more than one occasion have I ordered such people to bed for a pro- longed rest. • And all this distress, mind you, in addition to the obsession of wanting .to hear about, or think about, or acc- tually be with the loved one the whole twenty-four hours. If you have been in love yourself YOU will agree with me that love is in reality a disease. Perhaps you only had a mild case of it, Perhaps it will attack yon more vigorously next time. Who knows? But whether or no, the way to stop love from completely unbalancing you is to dream about it less and reason about it. morel Make yourself realize that the ob- ject of your desire is only a •human being after all and nowhere nearly as wonderful and perfect as you like to imagine. Such an attitude will not rob you of the pleasures of love. It will merely strengthen you a- gainst the cruel awakening that too often" comes when the hectic flush of romance passes and the patient once again faces the stern realities of life, Ordinarily one does not speak of a person being sick when he feels a tri- fle indisposed and runs only a degree or two in temperature. ' Likewise we should not think of a person attacked with romantic love as definately sick unless .love • colors and changes all his thoughts, feelings and actions. Most peoplerecover completely' from love -sickness. A few never do. And the heart -hungry pains 'that foll- ow as an aftermath in these chronic cases are among the most distressing that flesh is heir to. KITCHEN TOOL CHEST Every well equipped kitchen should have a tool chest for the wife. With the proper tools she could make many needed repairs which she would so often like to do insead of calling in a carpenter, plumber or electrician as the case may be and have the attend- ant annoyance. The tool chest need not be large and if your slippers are too small your or elaborate.

Take the matter of hats for example, I'm awfully aware that small tight- fitting hats are the mode, with the exception of the garden type of hat for dress occasions or quite fluffy frocks, I'm more interested in fem- inine beauty, however, than i am in feminine fashions, firmly believing. that the beautiful, and charming wo- man is fashionable despite a straying' from the general lines of the accepted fashion. A close -fitting hat when worn on a hot Summer day permits the sun to beat down unmercifully upon the face. Now it's perfectly true that a :thin coating of vanishing. cream or com- plexion base under powder and rouge helps to prevent tan and freckles. It the sun is � is equally true that when i permitted to beat down upon' the face it becomes red and flushed, which gives a strained expression and ap- pearance to the face, thus destroying illusion of beauty and charm. There are many hats that . follow the general close -fitting lines that still have a slight brim. It may only be an inch wide, but only this scant .protec- tion, serves better than no brim at all. Therefore, I say unto you, buy your Summer hats so that they offer some protection to your face from the sun. No woman can be truly beautiful if she appears as though she has been stirring jam for long hours over a hot stove. , Another beauty hint for hot weath- er is this: Buy your walking and sport shoes half' a sizq larger than those worn during the cool months. Most feet swell a little during hot weather 1 The U.S. Patent Office has granted patents to the Hudson Motor Car Company on the "F- )lead" high -compression motor. The patent—No. 1,656,051, renting to internal combustion engines— ri covers the entire arrangement of valves, spark plugs and com-, buption chamber. With the new patented design Hudson motors now are built with a compression' ratio of nearly 6 to'1--or 20 per cent above the average—with correspondingly high standards of acceleration, fuel ' economy and power. It is practically ha - possible to make the motor knock under even the most adverse operating con. ditions The motor is the liveliest, most powerful and economical Hudson has ever built. $1600 and up AU prices f. o. b.

THE IMPORTANCE OF KITCHENS To help Summer brides we are going to suggest necessities for the simple kitchen that are needed to start house -keeping for a family of two. A mixed kitchen we have found the most satisfactory, that is, partenam- el ware, part aluminum, a little glass, and steel frying 'pans. Two of the latter, large andsmall, an omelet pan, a potato pot of aluminum, three sau- cepans of aluminum and three of en- amel ware in different sizes. An al- uninum'griddle and a waffle iron are kettle, a beneeded. A tea e sure to , medium sized enamel soup pot, that may also be a ham ,boiler on occas- ions, a medium sized double boiler, and a very small 'one for frosting. making. A chopping bowl and knife,. a meat chopper, .a group of nested earthen ware bowls and another of the enamel ware. A set of refrigerator dishes, a butter pot, a' spice box, a tea caddy, coffee canister, wooden sugar bucket, a cov- ered roasting pan, an open roasting pan, bread, cake and layer cake pans,. nutmeg and large grater, a colander and a 'handled strainer, coffee and tea strainers. Bread board and knife, moulding board and rolling pin, flour sifter, biscuit cutter, muffin pans, lem- on and orange reamer, ricer, potato masher, funnel, egg beater; and frying basket, coffee pot, tea pot, kitchen pitchers, measuring cup, basting and mixing spoons, one wooden spoon, pastry cutter, a few moulds and bak- ing shells, dish pan, shears, can open- er, coffee mill and, the usual cutlery, BIG. CIRCUS COMING TO WINGHAM Barnett Brothers Circus and Train- ed Animal Shows will exhibit at Wingham on Thursday, August 30th, with the Big City of Tents located on the Town Park. Looking over the official programme of the Bar- nett Brothers Shows, one finds many well and favorably known acts—not- ably Jack and Clare Moore, England's premier tight wire°•dancers, perform- ing feats on the wire that are not often duplicated. The Flying LeRoys truly termed the Flying Monarchs of the Air; their feats will amaze all who witness their performance.. Pro- fessor Cramer and his wonderful troupe of trained ponies and dogs. Major Dickson and his twentieth Cen- tury wonder—ZIP—the greatest of all performing monkeys. . Miss Barnett and her wonderful High' School Horses, which display wonderful Equine intelligence. Then there is the Troupe of educated sheep, Pigs and Goats, "June" the smallest Trained elephant in the world doing almost super -human antics. Profess- or-Hepperle and his wonderful clown band—rightly termed the world's wor- st band—which creates an unlimited amount of laughter, Space •does not allow us to go into detail of all the wonderful things seen with the Bar- nett Brothers Trained Animal Shows. Circus day, is Circus day, always has been and always will remain so thru the succeeding generations. It is a day when Old and Young, fig- '.ureatively, . merge into one throng of happy children; the side show, the novelties, pink lemonade, peanuts and hot clogs, all add to the atmosphere and help to recall to even the oldest Old Timer the happy days of child- hood.

LONG TREK Pollee Dog, ,Lost In California, Ponied .Its '1V4 8,03 Way Some to Boston, 8,004) Miles• Away, Harvard, a flour -year-old police dog, had disappeared during a holi- day trip, and his owner, Mr. Maurice Hiclslay, had been compelled to go home without him. thinking he must hastolen oked. Sixve brae later r l;e was astonish- ed by an "apparition" of Harvard trotting down a Boston side street, but before he could get out of a traf- fic stop the dog had disappeared, and Mr, Hickley dismissed the incident as imagination. Three mornings later there came a scratch- at the front door and an old familiar whimper, There was Harvard, and a wet tongue licked his master's face unrebuked. The dog was in a state of collapse, but careful nursing saved his life. His collar was gone, the pads of his paws were 'worn to paper thinness, These, and the desire to eat all the meat in the town, were the only in- dications that Harvard offered to ex- plain his record-breaking trip' home, without money, road -maps, or . the ability to readsign-posts or ask for directions. It was not memory that enabled the dogto findhisor he wayback,f .spent nearly the whole of the out- ward journey sleeping • ;at the bottom of an automobile. A dog might be expected to scent his way home, even. through a crowded city, by the scent of the familyautomobile, but nobody would pretend that he could track a ear across a continent. Some people think telepathy may guide a dog home, but this is dis- counted by the story of Mutt, a sixteen -year-old Airedale in twenty- four days, during which time he must have covered at least a thousand miles over mountains and burning deserta. He arrived at the house where the family had lived, but he found stran- gers. Thepeople had moved to the other side of the town. Had Mutt been guided by telepathy, he' would have found his new home. In Harvard's case the difficulties must have been tremendous. All over the country there are laws about muzzles and licenses, and dog -catch- ers are active. Harvard and other long-distance traveller were outlaws. In most places It probably the tech- nical duty of policemen to turn stray dogs over to the dog-catcher, but every dog known that a police -station is really one of the likeliest places to get free meals. bed, and medical at- tention for cuts and sore paws. If Harvard had travelled at his best speed, about a hundred miles a day over a straight route, he could have done the journey in less than a month. The extra five months prob- ably represent delays and adventures, rest for sore paws, imprisonment by friends and foes, days when he was poisoned by bad meat, and dog fights, He would have needed two big meals a day to keep going, and to get these was probably one of his hardest tasks. Begging risked capture and invited a bullet, and he probably re- lied on stealing and occasional catches of rabbits, rats, and birds. "Dogged" persistence and endur- ance of the canine race is a contin- ual source of amazement. Goldie, a collie, lay in a thicket from Febru- ary 10 to April 5, when she was found in a trap, still alive. She had eaten such grass and twigs as were in her reach, and must have licked up every drop of water and flake of snow that fell within range.

A Large Signal Box. The Southern Railway, a line with a vast series of branches serving the whole of England south of the Thames, has completed a $5,000,000 scheme, including the electrification of forty miles of additional track, also the ordering of five new electri- cal stations and the introducing of 136 additional passenger coaches. ' The innovations include, a new London Bridge signal box, the larg- est in Britain, with 300 electrically operated levers workable with !SW pressure, compared with the MC. man -power levers hitherto used. This will enable a reduction in the signalling staff of fifty ei ho will be absorbed by other centres. "Sema- phore signals," says an official inter- view, "will disappear, giving place to powerful three -aspect color lights, which have been successful else- where, eventually speeding up train movements. The concentrated light beams also help greatly in fog." Figure It Out. The reticent man refused to di- qulge the number of his brothers and sisters, living or dead. This is how the figure expert was able to find out. "Write down the number of your living brothers," he instructed. "Dou- ble it, and add' three. Multiply the total by five. Add the number of sisters living, and multiply the total by ten. Add the number of dead bro- thers and sisters, and subtract 150 from the total." The reticent one obeyed. "Good," said the figure fiend. "The first figure of your total will give the number of living brothers, the mid- dle figure the number of living sis- ters, and the unit figure the number of deaths." :l Try it ow yove Ilriaedh8 R OM tails.

The ruggedness of Chevrolet construction alone makes these things possible. There is no part of the engine—of the chassis—of the body that was not designed primarily for rugged endurance—put to the test again and again on the General Motors Proving Ground. As a result the "Bigger and Better" Chevrolet sturdily climbs without a halt, the steep slopes of the Rockies, and ploughs its way through the deep mud and gumbo of half -made prairie trails. In whatever conditions it may be placed, the splendid ruggedness of Chevrolet retrains loyal in the service of its owner.
