During a musical interlude. which appeared between news flashu earlier this evening Jeanie came in on an errand. She laugh- ld i0 James. "I hear there are to be sweeping reductions in taxes." James nodded. though a bit list- lessly at the moment. "'Do you know," he remarked, “I've just been pondering over some of them, and I consider that some would have been as well left as they were. Take the luxury-hand the ac-called nuisance taxes. I never consider those as difficult taxes - they're something that are left entirely to oneself. They don't too much af- fect the man in the streeb-oh the nuisance tax might. but altogether what would it amount to? Now those could have been left as were. without reductions or repeals . . . and cosmetics too. Instead of low- ering the taxes on those, they vculd have been as well increased. Those things are not common nec- essities . . . Ike. say for example . . ." and Jeanie and I knew what was coming. "tobaccosl" g

‘They are no tilt-wits who cem- pile the terms of the budget," Jeanie laughed. “they know where they can find revenue-and get it anost cheerfully. But", she count- ured. “is not that also left pretty mlwh i0 the person?" "Tobacco tis a must." James replied, looking over his glasses. "at least in many cases." “And aren't cosmetics in the some category?" she chuckled. ‘l-iumphli" James snorted, "weren't. the women of our mothers‘ and grand-mothers’ day, who knew nothing of euch stuff, quite as st- tractive as those of nowadays?" ‘But: James." I interrupted. “there never was s. time when cosmetics weren't used. It's an ancient art, and of course. not confined to demfnlty alone." "Now, Ellen," James said sternly, "you needn't try to tell me that cosmetics are l5 necessary as tobacco -— there's no need of such stuff at. all!" he protested stoutly, which very state- ment has been denied in practice in my presence. Because more than once at some gathering or another James has remarked to me rather breathlessly of one. obviously an expert in camouflage >-and not unbecoming. “Hasn't ithat. girl a. marvell us conmlexion, Illlen! just pink an white!

turn, to take a shot at a. rabbit or some other creature that would afford an extra meal for them- selves and the dogs. But their ef- forts were without success.

During the next six clays the storm continued. and each day the hunters and their dogs lay about the camp. shivering and starving.

0n the morning of January 38, they killed one of the dogs. roast- ing the meat on the ends of their muskets. The flesh, though not very relishable under normal con- ditions, proved an excellent diet now that starvation was staring them in the face. _

The uneaten portion of the car- cass was taken outside and buried in the snow, but sometime during the following night it was stolen by foxes or bears.

The morning of the 29th was clear and calm; so Squires and Fraser decided they would push on and try to find a. habitation where food and shelter might be procured.

Peter Fraser's diary, found in his pocket. tells the tragic story of how he and his companion spent their last hours in this world:

"January 29 returned to camp and killed the second dog. Ate part of it. We are both sick and badly frozen, with the skin peeling off our feet and hands. The cold is biting us to the marrows. Made a try for s. settlement today but. got hopelessly confused. No luck at all. Squires seems to be sinking fast. It don't seem as if I can last much longer. I Just locked at my watch. Time 10 p.m. Squires has just passed away. l-Ils last words were: "Give my money and clothes to my brother John." I look at his cold, stiff body and think how lucky he is to be gone. Time 11:20 p.m. This is the end; all my be- longings and property I leave to my dear mother.”

Not; until spring were the bodies of the lost hunters discovered. Bide by side they lay, Squ es and Fra- ser, snow for their win in: sheet. a crude brush camp for their grave.

She jumped o foot. "W-w-why. it's Tim!" she snapped. ‘Tim. you old sldewlpderl Don't tcll me you're still alive."

"I am so. Sonora. I'd know you in a sandstoxm at midnight." "Well. I've been in ‘em: So have you. Tim, I'm scared to open that door. Dyou s'pose there's any others of us left?"

"There's Cricket and Clay, any- how. Come along. Might’: well face it."

They hobbled in. arm in arm. A pleasant-faced, quiet mannered young man welcomed thcm. "You're Sonora Cassidy, aren't ou?"

“Glory be! l-fovr know old Smicra?" The young man smiled. "Harvey system. Our lookouts have been at work. I'm Byron Harvey. Jr. Representing the management." "Fred Harvey's grandson?" She scrutinized him. “I've hoard you favor him. But f dunno as I can see it. This is Tim, our old counter man. l’. disremember his other name, if I ever knew it" "Prob‘ly didn't." said Tim, shak- ing hands. "Proud to meetlchs. Mr. Harvey."

"You're to be our guests here during your stay. Please let me know personally if there is any- thing we can do for you".

“Yes. sir. you can do something for me right now," xctumed Tim. “Tell m] who's the one-armed guy with the billiard-ball cabeza. Seems kinda familiar."

“That's the Earl of Maulderney. He's here as a special guest of the city,"

Sonora glanced in the direction indicated. “Chris!" she piped.

The bald-headed septuagenarlan gave a start. turned. and identi- fied the source of the exclamation. He ambled over. "Eh? What's this? What ho! Sonora Cassidy! Is my wife lookin‘?" I-lc kissed her sound- ly. "Cheer-lo, Tim."

“Hi. Earll" responded the count- er man. "How's things in the House of Lords?"

Sonora touched the empty sleeve. “Did you lose that in a freight car, Chris?"

"No. I forgot to duck quick enough when the Jerrles were over last year."

This was a slight and typical un- derstatement. the fact being that the Earl had gone into a toppling house during an~air raid pfter a nuraemald and baby and had been pinned under a wall. But, as young Harvey, who knew the circum- stances, tactfully postponed ex- paining, His Lordship was spared the embarraasments of heroism. "Maybe you could lick Terry. at that," said Tim. "l-fe tried to stop a train with his right leg twenty years back. It. didn't hinder him gettin’ to be a division super bc- fore he retired."

"And Doc Gibson?" asked the Englishman. "Good old Doc."

“I can tell you that." put in Tim. “Worked himself to death in the flue epidemic of i918." lie turned to the Haney representa- tive. “Used to brag he'd brought more'n a hundred Fred Harveys into the world, from Fred Harvey Abbott to Fred Harvey Zimmer- man."

“I want a drink." broke in Sonora who was getting bored with all this. . _ “You'll find refreshments at the end of the room," said Harvey. Sonora led the way. There rose in her path s. slender, graceful ap- paition whose smile was as gay and whose eyes were as bright and eager as if the fifty years had left her scatheless of their pas- sage. She drswied through her nose, "Dya wish Cawfee or tea?" Sonora. stared. "Huh? Cricket!" she whcoped.

They hugged each other. "Son- ora! You old fraud. Why haven't you written?" .

“I dunno, I'm no good at that sort of thing. I been hearln‘ plenty about you. though. How's it feel to be a. governor's wife?"

Cricket made a face. "I like Clay better without the trimmings. We're exes now, you know. No more politics." She raised her voice. "Clayl Here's you: old pal."

"Hi, Thurstyl" Sonora greeted him as‘ he came up, his dean and handsome face alight with welcome. "You and me are goln' to have a drink."

"How's the baby?" he asked over the bubbles.

"Which baby? Oh, Fred Harvey l-fartsey. Lucky Hartley. they call him. Got his dad's luck coppored. Every throw he makes come up sevens. Just been elected presi- dent of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce."

Mr. Arthur Malley. intermediate teacher at the OTeary School has resigned. Miss Marjorie Ellis of O'f.cary will be the teacher for several days until a parmament teacher is appointed.

There was a large attendance at the Lenten Prayer meeting of the 0'Leary United Church on Tuesday night, March 22nd. The Minister's topic was the significance of Jesus’ journey to Jerusalem.

Despite heavy rains and streets that were running rivers, there was a good attendance of the O'Leary C. G. I. T. on Wednesday night. March 23rd, at the home of Peggy Ellis.

Due to the rains and heavy roads the hockey game between Kcnsington and O'Lcary which was to have been played at the O‘Leary Rink on Wednesday night. March 23rd, had to be cancelled. Because of the same conditions. the Bloomfield United Church Young Peoples Union meeting has to be cancelled.

Friends of Mr. Fred Luxon of Carleton, Lot 6. near O'Leary, will be sorry to learn that he is very seriously ill in the P. E. I. Hospi- tal in Charlottetown.

stitute. Cleveland. Ohio, states that in addition to the drug and diet ueatment of crpilepfil’. the patient needs guidance to meet. his special problems. Some of these problems are: Whether opileptics should have children. should epileptic children children play and pttend school with other children, should epilep- tlos drive a car. should they take medicine when free and have been frte of attacks for a considerable Limo.

A little thought about these questions or problems gives some idea of how much the family phy- sician or psychiatrist must know epilepsy in order to guide the epi- leptic safely.

Although many are familiar with the treatment of a patient during

an attack. some of the usual ad- vice with some new points are pre- sented by Dr. Fctterman:

"lf the epileptic ls seen at the warning stage before the fsll. ht should be assisted to bed, a couch or even onto the ficor. Put a fold- ed handkerchief between the teeth or a. narrow eraser which he may carry in his pocket or have at his bedside table."

Avoid injuring the tongue or teeth by trying to force a spoon or hard. wooden object between the teeth. Free any tight clothing. es- pecially neckwear. Turn.the patient on his back if he is on his face. Then let the attack run its course until he awakcs. Let him sleep after the attack, if he so desires. as this helps him to sleep off the usu- al uncomfortable after-effects.

Epilepsy of itself does no dstnagc to the brat-n. Dr. Fetterman states that many of his epileptic patients have live in their cotmmmities and families as normal men and womln. and that he has tested their intel- ligence levels after 20 years and that these ilvcls were unchanged or c-ven improvtd.
