how they had been halted in mid-Atlantic by Adolf Hitler's personal
yacht, the Azico Grille, TOP, and ordered to Stettin, Germany, where
ey were held for twenty-one days. They said the Azico Grille has
'been turned oVer• to the navy and Outfitted as a raider.

The talesman stopped at the
house and asked the lady if he
could interest her husband in an
electric razor.
"He alight be interested in your
razor," she remarked, "for he

"Shaves once a year!" echoed
fie salesman. "I never heard of
aanything like it." -
'he lady nodded. "He used to
slave twice a year," she drawled.
"But that was when we had lady

Letters For Hitler
Taken Frrom Mails
Three letters addressed to Ad-
olf Hitler have been removed from
airmails travelling from the Unit-
ed States to Europe by way of
Bermuda, censorship officials dis-
closed.
The chief censor would not re-
veal their contents, They were ad-
dressed, respectively, to "Herr Ad-
olph," "Chancellor Hitler," and
"Fuehrer."
HEALTH
TOPICS
ACID STOMACH A MYTH
Acid stomach is largely a myth
and calls for rearrangement of
Iiving habits rather than the use
of alkaline preparations, according
to Prof. Chester M. Jones of Har-
vard Medical school.
'Hyperacidity," he said in a Lec-
ture, "usually is only a supposed
chemical disorder of the stomach"
and taking medicine is not the
way to attack the fundamental
cause, which •is "usually one of
improper dietary or living habits."
-0-
A NATIONAL OBJECTIVE
"Education is the most potent
weapon in the campaign of pre-
vention of ill health arising from
faulty or defective diet and nu-
trition." Pointing this out to a
large audience in Toronto, Hon.
/an Mackenzie, Dominion Minis-
ter of Health, endorsed and
launched a project undertaken by
the Health League of Canada to
advise women on the right foods
to use. Practical demonstrations
in cooking are to be given in a
number of city schools. The syl-
labus for the course of instruc-
tion has been scientifically devel-
oped and when the success of the
project is known, it is intended to
outline the technique adopted, for
the benefit of any part of Can-
ada desirous of undertaking sim-
ilar work.
The field of nutrition, said the
Minister of Health, was above alt
the one in which Canadians, as
individuals, could learn the most
with the greatest benefits to theul-
selves.
"We need health in our armed
forces," he continued. "We need
health in the nation and we can
achieve it only by having health
in the home. Victory in the field
will be a hollow achievement in
this war if all that remains is a
devitalized home land. We must
not let down our health standard.
On the contrary, if we are to be
worthy of our fighting men we
must strive to go forward in our
war against ill -health."
During the last fifty years no
animal plagues such as Foot and
Mouth diseases, rinderpest or
pleuro -pneumonia have occurred
among, Canadian live stock.
What Science
is
Doing
1VIAGNIFIES 33,000 TIMES
Scientists have succeeded in otic-
ing photographs of germs rtlagnie
fled as many as 33,000 times their
normal size, it is revealed in the
Canadian Medical Association Jour-
nal,
The instrument used to achieve
this magnification is the electron
microscope, constructed in the De-
partment of Physics by J. Hillier
and A. Presbus, research assist-
ants, under the direction of Dr.
E. F. Burton, head of the depart-
merit at the University of Toron-
to.
The magnification is 28,000
times greater than that of the or-
dinary microscope. University re
searchers, express hope they will
be able to photograph viruses nev-
er seen by the eye.
The new microscope is being us-
ed also to photograph blood, in
the hope that changes denoting
the presence of cancer may be de-
tected much earlier than by pre-
sent diagnosis. It also is hoped
that effect•of drugs upon pneu-
monia may be gauged, particular-
ly on the fatty, protective cover-
ing of this germ and of tubercuI-
osis. •
Modern
Etiquette
BY ROBERTA LEE
1, What should a young man clo
when at a party or other affair,
and he finds himself next to a
girl to whom he has not been in-
troduced?
2. Is it all right foe a bride to
have the initials that will be
heirs when married, placed on her
silverware and linen?
3. Should a napkin be held above
the edge of the table when unfold-
ing it?
What sized tip should one
give for services in a beauty sal-
on?
5. When eating in a public place,
and the waiter passes a dish,
should one say, "No thank you,"
or merely""No"?
6. Isn't it poor taste for a hus-
band or a wife to make fun of
the other whei'i in company?
Answers
Say, "I am Ralph Wilson. I do
- not believe I have met you be-
fore." 2. Yes. Many modern brides
do this. 3. No. The napkin should
be unfolded on the lap. 4. If the
services do not exceed three dol-
lars, twenty-five cents is suffic-
ient. If more than three dollars,
one may apply the ten per cent
rule. 5. One should say, "No !'hank
you." Courtesy is never out of
place. 6. Yes; even when done
jokingly it is not good form. •

References to Wizardry of
NArthern Race, Says the

Nordic sagas are full of refer -
oleos to those sorcerers, the Finns,
says the Moncton Transcript. to

Ball''., received the Orkney islands
Las a dowry with lilaa'garet of Nor
way, when the great anchorage of
Scapa Plow, which could hold all
the navies in the world, knew only
Viking ships, it is possible that the
tradition was carried to Scotland,
for an;' old Scotch ballad tells us
that:
",ei F1nn coin ower fra Nor'roway
Fir to pi't tothache away."
We have no explanation to offer
as to why Norse sailors attributed
magic to the Finns, except the ob-
vious. if anyone is to be presented
popularly with uncanny powers it
is commonly one of unusual ap-
pearance, and so perhaps a first
Finn ,was chosen because of his
non -Nordic aspect. In those ancient
days ships did not have polyglot
crews and Iasears if not landlub-
bers were -not seen in European
waters. Indeed a "Iasear" seems to
have meant originally one attached
to the "Iashkar" or army and pre-
sumably he was not even a marine.
British sailors were long un.will-

which included Finns among the
crew. They do not seem to have
anything against the Finns individ-
ually but they did object to the un-
avoidable intimacy in a ship with
wizards who play poker with the
devil and use human lives as the
chips in the game.

I was troubled with gnawing
pain below breastbone. It caused
gas and bloating. I tried many
remedies, but my only relief was
soda, and that for short time only.
After meals It didn't bother me
for few hours; then if I ate some-
thing it stopped coming; again af-
ter some time. The pain bothered
me worse at night. After taking
three bottles of Dr. McLeod's Sto-
