Pcrsplratlon Odor

To destroy the odor of perspir- ation on the body. try bathing in a basin of warm water. to which two -tablespoonfuls of compound spirits of ammonia have been added. The skin will be clean and fresh.

Glass Stopper

If a glass bottle stopper sticks, revolve the neck of the bottle slow- ly in the heat of a burning match. The heat from this will cause the neck to expand. thereby releasing the stopper.

Preparing Snup

Be sure never to let soup boil. Allow it to simmer slowly., if it boils. much of the liquid is wasted in evaporation and the heat of the flavor is lost.

Over the week-cnd. we treated to an excursion which contributed in no small degree

towards .having us kncw our Is- land better. In all it led us a dis- tance along both familiar and strange scenes and took us a number of miles. it was made possible by small mother-to-us,

mcst affable and enteriainlng

that for generations has the farm by the Strait. As well as inheriting those duties and en- tertainments which come to a son

the place - great grandfather to him, whose dust has rested in a quiet country churchyard now.

we stop to consider the years, it is much longer than that. . 0 .

We know little of this common forbcar of ours. except what we have learned for the most part in our chlldho0d.yeal's. Then it is, of course. that impressions are received that remain throughout

R life time, though sometimes these may be unwittingly given. We recall now that when as a

tiny wondering girl we -sat on I low seat beside his wife's chair stitching neat stitches at her bid- ding and direction. looking back from her wldowhood she would re- late: "Your grandfather was I fine-looking man. Yes. and kind

too in his own way. And a. fine scholar. for his day. He could both read and write the Gaelic.

And speak it?" she replied to our query, "Oh yes. he was 'rlght at home" always with the tongue. "We learned in time that "the tongue” referred only to the Gae- lic, so sweet and expressive it has been spoken of as "the language of Eden." From father-to-us. we learned that he was I gcod farm- er. for those times - a convlval friend and neighbour. a stern but just parent. But it was from mother-to-us, and all unaware to her that we learned of a. common trait. which though divided by time and generations, still made us very much akin. . . .

"Ellen! she has commented to us briskly. yet wlthal showing cer- tain Iigns of despair over our ob- vious indifference to housewcirk as a child, "Don't you think you could help out I bit with the work this morning? Now close that book!. I'm sure it's not one of your school booksl And run now. and get. . . I don't know where you got that liking to hIve yourself stuck into I book all the time.

They say he could read through thick and thin. I guess many I time”, she? continued, dwelling on the poet's untruth that Men must work and women must weep'.

As the "season" for epidemics of infantile paralysis (poliomyelltis) approaches, parents and physicians become even more alert in their

early and efficient cases that do occur. Perhaps some of us are discour-

treatment to

year, though a thorough investiga- R tlon as to the number of cases with 1 paralysis shows no increase. 1 The encouraging factor is that never before were sphysieians so well prepared to meet these epi- demics. The family physician now :has much skilled help available in gtreatirig cases of polio. In "Medical ,Clinics of North America,” Dr. ,Nichola.s S. Ransohoff states that Ithe present tendency is to have a yteam of medical specialists unite-.i ltogether for the purpose of diag- nosing a case of polio and giving proper treatment. At the Mon- mouth Memorial Hospital in Long ' Branch. New Jersey. the poliomyli- ;tis team is comprised of specialists in orthopedic surgery. internal medicine, pediatrics. ear. nose and ;throat. and neurologists and psy- -chiatrists as well as representatives from the laboratory and the de- .partment of physical medicine (el- ectricty, massage, baths).

Three forms of polio have been accepted. These are the abortive (does not completely develop). the nonparalyiic. and the paralytic forms. The abortive form may never s e I doctor as symptoms are

inot alarming (but this may spread gthe disease). The second group i the nonparalytic. has the signs and symptoms of polio but no paralysis ior muscle weakness is present. The 'fhird group, the paralytic. has 'usual signs, plus muscle weakness or paralysis and this group is div- ided into three subdivisions. i All thiee groups have certain lsym-ptoms in common. These symp- toms include fever. headache, nau- lsea. vomiting, diarrhoea. general weakness, pain. sore back. stiff gneck. sore throat. common cold and fears, sometimes fear of light. ab- .domi.nal pain. Joint pain. inability to swallow, difficulty in breathing. and muscle weakness or paralysis

While at the present time there

is no known method of preventing .the disease or halting its progress. 1the drug curare is of great value when its relaxing effects are com- bined with intelligent muscle lstretchlng.

By Consumer Section Marketing Service Department of Agrlcuiure

Honey was one of man's first foods. At one time it was con- sidered a priceless treat. used on- ry at celebrations of greatest im- portance.

The habits of the bee are the same today as it thousand years ago but man has improved the method of gathering and market- ing honey. He has. however, not been able to duplicate it. flavours of honey are due to the aromatic substances found in the nectar of flowers and therefore honey varies from time to time. since taste preferences vary. one flavour may be more pleasing to the residents of one locality than produced in another section of the country. Honey producers frequent- ly blend several honeys to obtain a uniform colour and I flavour that is generally appealing.

Honey is 0CCBSl0llully sold in the comb but extracted honey is more common

When honey is graded. the grade mark along with the colour class- ification must be shown on the container. It is wise to look for these markings and buy by grade.

No. 1-good flavour, free from foreign material and has good keeping qualities . . best grade for table use. -

No. 2-may have traces of pollen or wax. The keeping quality not necessarily as good as No. but the honey is of good flavour

flavour and may show some pollen or wax particles. May have poorer keeping qualities than higher grades.

"Pasteutized honey has been treated by the controlled applica- tion of heat to I point where I'l yeasts responsible for fermentation are destroyed. For this reason. it wiu keep indefinitely It is packed in plants registered with and oper- ating under the supervision of the Federal Department of Agriculture. Unless declnred "liquid", pasteur- ized honey will be crystallized and of a uniform. fine texture. Past- eurlzed honey is labelled Is such.

However, low temperatures or even freezing does not injure the colour or flavour but does hast- en granulation: therefore. the re- frigerator is a poor storage place if the liquid form is desired. Hon- ey wlll. if stored in I damp place. absorb moisture Ind may ferment.

Extracted honey crystallizes readily Ind very quickly becomes solid or nearly so. It is generally sold in this form though the liquid may also be found. if prefer ed.
