•
An enthusiastic politician was
asked by his wife to lay aside
politics long enough to dig up the
potatoes in the garden.
Re consented, and after digging
for a few minutes went into the
house and said he had found a
coin. Ho washed it, and it proved
ito be a quarter. He put it in his
pocket and went back to work.
Presently he went to the house
again and said he had found an-
other coin. He washed the dirt off
$t and this time it was a fifty -cent
piece. He put it in his pocket.
"I have worked pretty hard,"
acid he to his wife. "I think I'II
take a short nap."
When he woke he was not sur-
prised to find that his wife had
dug up the rest of the potatoes—
and that she had found no coins!

"Then she isn't exactly one
of the sympathetic sort?"
said Smith.
"Sympathetic!" snapped
Brown.
"Why, that woman wasn't
born, she was quarried!"

Arriving at a strange hotel, a
:fussy woman thought she'd better
know where the fire -escape was.
So she started exploring.
During her tour, she opened a
'boor and found herself in a bath-
¢'oom occupied by an elderly gen-
tleman.
"Oh, I'm sorry," she twittered,
"I v'e.s looking for the fire -es -
Cape."
dentinuing her search, present.
ly she heard the pad of bare feet
behind her and a shout made her
!turn. It was the elderly man, clad
in a bath -towel.
"Wait a minute!" he gasped.
G'Where's the fare?"

David loved bread and jel-
ly. His mother usually pur.
chased sliced bread. One day
she bought a loaf of unsliced
bread. When he saw her ap.
ply the butcher knife, he ask-
ed: "What's that bread all
stuck together for?"
—0.—
The two friends were discussing
spaotoring as they sat in the club.
87I was once buying second-hand
sar from a garage owner,' said
one. "Of course, he praised it up,
es I was a novice. But I found
a way of discovering absolutely
all its faults."
"How?" asked the other.
"Why," went on the first, "1
had on trial, and took it to an-
other car -dealer and asked him
to buy it,"

Feathered Hats
Quite Popular
Feather's, made into colored oak
leaves and butterflies in natural
colorings develop several small
shapes, while a "half hat", to be
posed over a veil -draped head, con-
sists of 48 tiny colored birds.
Burned goose, ostrich and coq are
strongly endorsed. An ostrich
model steaming from Victorian
inspiration trails more than a
yard of tied willow ostrich down
the back. Coq feather hat and
muff ensembles are observed, while
coq and various other types of
feathers, including• quills, wings
and birds accent anany of the col-
ored suede hats,
What Science
is
Doing
HEALING WOUNDS QUICKER
It has been discovered during
recent surgery that certain foods
containing vitamins and proteins
substitute for medicines and
drugs.
For several days before and af-
ter operations, patients were giv-
en diets high in vitamins, proteins
and vitamin concentrates.
Abundant production of this
"cement" apparently speeded
healing of wounds, for in animal
tests the walls of wounds lacking'
the vitamins were only orae -third
normal strength.

EYE REVEALS DEATH NEAR..
A new photo -electric eye which
detects the approach of death in
changing color of -the skin is re-
ported.
The 'eye gives warning in time
to administer lifesaving oxygen.
The new eye looks virtually in-
to the blood itself. This is done
by placing a strong light behind
the ear. Some of the rays pass
through tissues and blood. The
electric eye picks up these rays
and detects changes in the blood
color too slight for the human eye
to see,
PAIN OF OF ANGINA RELIEVED
A new method of surgery ap-
pearing to give the first "uni-
formly complete relief" from an-
gina pectoris, which causes pain in
the region of the heart, is an-
nounced in the journal of the
American Medical Association.
The operation• requires an in-
cision in the upper part of the
back along the spinal column and
cutting the nerves which carry
impulses resulting in the painful
heart spasm.

A.—Fill the empty pans with

burning, but the muffins will bake

A.—Insert a piece of wire net-

ticularly advisable if there are
children or babies around the
house. Remember, however, that
this wire netting should not be of

heat that comes through the pipe
and has a tendency to burn out

phasis this fall and winter when Canadians are keeping Canadian dollar's in Canada. Grilse, like the 12 pound-

A Doctor Urges
"Eat Fish Raw"
Well -Known Halifax Physician
Declares We Lose the Real
Gcod in Fish By Cooking It
Nova Scotians, Canada's leading
fishermen, were given some advice
.last week on how to eat the com-
modity of which they are such pro.
lific producers,
"Eat it raw," was the counsel gi-
ven to members of the Nova Sco-
tia Economics Association by Dr,
DOUBLE AUTOMATIC BOOKLET
11. 33. Atlee, Halifax physician.
'Lots of Vitamins
"The trouble with our fish is we
cook it," he continued. "We should
eat it raw. Raw fish and a litre
bread and butter would give us lots
of vitamins. You lose the real good
in fish by cooking it.
This province, endowed as it Is
with an abundance of fish and ap-
ples, is capable of produci-'g the
healthiest race in the world from a
dietetic standpoint."
