ELLENIS DIARY l

This day brought Memory Time to the Family at Alderlea, as those summer days returning friends and loved ones to revisit the scenes of their youth now does on many an island farm . . . And because their return is an annual event some easily pick up the rested threads on the loom of their lives to weave WU-h delight a bright new length of fabric.

COVERS TVVO PROBLEMS

.Ianct's letter, in fnct, nffcrs solution to two problems. She is proof that one can recover quite adequately from what is considered at the time as mortal licziribrcak. She also bears witness to the fact that a husband, being completely human, will not forgive or forget a confessed indiscrclion on the part of his wife.

At the time Janet admitted her transgression. she was really more intent. on solving: her own conscience and prostratlng her past life before the masculine superiority of her husband-to-be than in being honest for hones!y's siike. lf lite fiance had been ti Iheoretically per- fcct man of compassion, for;:,ivcncss find understanding, the matter would have ended there. But where in humanity does one find such a comhinntlon in a husband? Occasionally, perhaps, but very, very seldom. These nagging reminders will come up, recriminations will be made. suspicions will creep in. Nothing can stop the onslaught. Once a wife puts hersclf on the defensive by confessing a past sin. site is open to the consequences. llvvr mrirrled life can be as exemplary as an rin:cl's, but she cannot zinniltilale the past.

Of course. if the past affair was an open scandal that everyone knew, it must be told, but A closcd door should cover such a case as Janet's.

One can continue to protest, undying fidelity to the doubling hus-

band, and prny for a return of his fnifh-in achieve a basicrhnnge in his nature is possible in no other way.

m Cut-Flower Elntr

cut flowers will last longer if picked in the early morning or in the evening, using I sharp knife or scissors to eliminate ragged edges. A slanting cut is best. Plunge the flowers into water as soon as possible and do not at- tempt to arrange them in vases until they are well soaked. Avoid nu-row necked vases. Cut the stems each day and change water. Remove all leaves below the water level. At night place the flowers in a refrigerator or 9. cool place.

To Remove Mildew

Remove mildew by wetting, the spot. soaking well and covering thickly with finely-pulverized chalk ortwhiting. or soak in sour milk, rinse, and lay in the sun.

Cure of Eyes

If the eyes feel tired or dusty, bathe them with boric acid or other eye wash. Vaseline jelly is quick and effective in promoting long and curling eye lashes.

Vicious Circle

Two hunters enjoying a meal, had rcsied their rifles against a tree some distance away. Sudden- ly 8. bear emerged from the woods and made towards them. one man quickly climbed the nearest tree; but ilie other, somewhat portly. started to run, with the bear at his heels.

Just. as it was about to catch him he suddenly disappeared into a hole in the ground. The bear overshot the hole and quick as I! flash, the man scrambled out and fled in the opposite direction, again pursued by the bear. Lead- ing the chase back towards the hole, he repeated the first perfor- mance, and once more the bear overshot the hole.

After this happened several times, his friend shouted down from the treetop.

"Hey, you dumb fool! Why the heck don't you stay in the hole?"

”Can't," gaspccl the portly one still running, "There's another bear in that hole!"

Q. What are some of the values of the various vegetables?

A. Lettuce ls good for the nerves. Beets and turnips contain iron. Tomatoes are good for the liver and stimulate it. Celery is good for rheumatism. Spinach is good for the bowels. Carrots are good for clearing the complexion. Aspara- gus is good for the kidneys.

Q. How can I remove colored candle tallow stains from table linen?

A. Place it blotter over and a

blotter under the stain. Press with .a hot. iron. Repeat this process, shifting the blotters each time. until the tallow disappears.

Q. How can I prevent sewing ma- chine oil from spotting material?

A. After oiling the sewing ma- chine, it is well to sew through a blotter. which will absorb any ex- cess oil and thus prevent spotting any valuable material.
