His background is i� all that mine is zS> not. "My mother never was mar - rigid. She had 4 three children, �R each with a dif- ferent f a t h e r. For the past 10 years, she has .'ivied with a lazy, no-good man who •.inks and mistreats her. When he runs out of money, she calls on V•re. of- money, was the only girl. I was pushed around so much that at 16 I ran away, and lived with a family I worked for. Now, by hard work sand saving, I have put myself through school with no help from anybody. I now have a good job and a good home. I have bettered myself, and have be-nelitted by my mother's mistakes. "I ani so ashamed! 1 am afraid to tell this boy. What should I do Discouraged." Truth Is Best • If this fine young man has at- • ready told you he loves you and • wants to marry you, that was the • moment to tell him the truth. If 'a you did not, then tell him when e he does propose. a If he is a man of character, he EP will understand that the disgrace you feel so deeply is not your * own, but your mother's. If he a has the right stuff in him, he can * only admire you more for the * struggle you have made to rise above your inheritance. He will * love you even better because you at have suffered so much, and he 's will do all a husband can to pro- s` tett you from any unhappiness in * the future. t It is a high tribute to your in - ID nate decency and standards of s thinking and living that you have e' arrived where you are today. In 501 spite of your mother's loose liv7 :a ing, you have made yourself sr • person whom any right-thinking; • man or woman should proudly a welcome into the family. • "There are no illegitimate 'chit- • dren; there are only illegitimate (lAnERN 4523 s!us w_*, Most versatile dress you can find[ t1se it as your prettiest house - and -go -to -market dress, or, depend- ing on your fabric, it can be a hand- some spectator sport!

No * matter what happens, you will * have the consolation of knowing e you could not stoop to deceit. e To "Jean": I think the time o has come to tell your husband * that unless he stays home more, * and takes you out regularly, you n will leave him again. And this * time you will not conte back until a he has found a place for you two * to live alone. e When you consented to live e with his mother, he made all * sorts of promises. You two would * be alone together most of. the * time; she would mind her own * affairs and never interfere, etc- * The opposite, you have found, is e the rule. He is almost never at * home, and his mother not only e criticizes everything you do, she is entirely too curious about how t you spend your money, and she e has driven away almost all your friends. e What is your life nowt' Work- ing in an office all day, coming * home to do housework alone, e waiting for your husband to wan- der in late at night. And you have been married less than a t year 1 o 'If you two took a small apart- ment and furnished it, you would * be content to wait for a house - so long as you were alone. If all e your words have not convinced your husband of the justice of # such a pian, then he will have to e be shocked into complying with it. If there: iii u skeleton in your family closet, keep it to yourself until there is a reason to reveal it. Then tell the truth.

He declares it is three times normal size and that he can swallow rat poison, broken glass, nails and needles. He'll have to give better value than that for the money, I'm afraid. A soldier who joined a Guarda regi- ment in London swatted a 10Ys- inch-long table knife, two boot studs, two collar studs, 16 trouser buttons, one 3 -inch bodkin, two large needles and a tooth brush. All were removed during, a 40 -minute operation. A French medical journal tells of a man who swallows corks. While being attended at a Paris hotel, he stole the doctor's watch, chain and seals -and swallowed them! Brunel, the scientist, inhaled a half sovereign while playing with children. After doctors had failed to extract it with specially made forceps, Brunel had himself whirled around on a centrifugal table built to his own design. The spinning produced convulsive coughing -and up came the coin. "Yes Sir, That's My Baby" -A 3 -month-old bcar cub, .Brivuas. is fondled by his mother, Ivy, during daily sunning at tete London, England, :Loo. The cub's name Nvi s coined frotat the names of his keepers, Bruce and Sana. Some weeks go by as quiet and uneventful as drifting clouds on a summer day. But not last week - anything buil There was plenty going both at home and abroad - the British election, our belated Canadian winter; installation of a milking machine and my one -wom- an quilting bee. Dealing with these evulits by virtue of their importance rather. than their natural sequence, we come first to the British election-- because what happens in Britain, either politically or economically, certainly affects Ginger Farm and the rest of Ontario. Like most people we went to bed 'rhursday Tright expecting the British Labour party would be returned to power ivith a good majority. . And we were a little fearful -fearful that the Socialist Government. in its headlong nationalization plans would be tatting the people too far out on a limb, in a way so far re- moved from British traditions it was hard to imagine that it could be a success. But first thing Fri- day morning the trend showed signs of a change, and by noon - well, you know the story. When Partner came in to dinner, I turned on the radio. ".Listen," I said, "list- en to the newsi" Partner listened -with growing incredulity. "But what happened -I thought Labour was in with a big majority?" And what diad happen? That is what everyone would like to know. And the end of the story is not yet. In fact, for quite a while, the rest of the world will be watching the British political crisis with in- creasing interest. Well, while the British Islea were getting "hot," Canada was getting cold, with its first pro- longed spell of winter weather, It snowed and it snowed; the wind blew and the mercury almost lost itself at the base of the thermome- ter. Highways were blocked; side roads impassable, and most farm lanes plugged as tight as could be. Then as we started watching our coal bins, the news of the coal mifiers' strike in the U.S. did not make us feel any warmer. Our lane filled in, along with the rest, and Bob was. obliged to leave the car at the. road. But when the wind Vessels stn. Artectionmee it. still St. Resound) 99:.

This, of course, is entirely Bob's venture and only after plenty of consideration, pro and con. We heard all kinds of stories ... a milking machine pro- duces mastitis: if the cups are left on too long, they draw blood; some cows won't let their milk down at all, and we also heard of. several .farmers who had bought milking machines and after a while, gone back to hand milking. Granted all these instances were true, Bob fig- ured they were in the minority; teat re were, on the other hand, hun- dreds of farmers, even some in this district, where milking machines were used to advantage, and with- out injury to the cows. Came the night when the milker Nvas used for the first time. I was just itching to go down to the barn, but concluded the less there were around the better. So I stayed in the house, waiting and wondering. Since not one of our cows had ever seen one of these mechanical con- traptions, there was no Melling what their reaction would be and I knew the nervous tension would be hard on Partner. At long last, the men carne in for supper, in- cluding the agent from whore Bob bought the machine. And every- thing was wonderful! Not one of the cows offered to kick at all, and one cow which had always done plenty of stepping around stood as quiet as a lamb and gave more milk than usual. I thought every- thing was fine. But during the eve- ning, Partner got deathly white. He was cold and his stomach became upset. I was alarmed until Bob figured out that it was a case of mild shock. Partner had been more keyed up than he or any of us realized; watching the cows, ready to deal with them should they be- come obstreporous. And then noth- ing happenedl It was a complete letdown and the reaction produced the condition I have described. Bob said he had seen the same thing happen dozens of times dur- ing the war. So Partner went to bed and in the morning, he was his asual self. Since then, everything has been all 'right- Of course,' it is Bob who runs the milker, but I suppose the time will come when Partner -will want to have a go at it, too. Space all gone -guess my quilt story must wait until next week. WHY SUFFER PILES Grateful usersraise quick results. Relief from Pafa-and sootphing comfort -from Meooa Pilo Remedios.
