PIVI trove of insoles beyond the hilltop and beside the road- way is retreating before our eyes these dlil. backing away from the challenging blows of his axe Is he gathers a harvest of fire- wood there. If one chances to walk by. as we did on a recent outing to the corner-store it is to see lengths of these, snugly essembl- ed in heaps. and if one is careful to step gently. a. man busy at his work. We find it fascinating to look in upon woodsmen. as saws and axes ring out in fragrant and shells surroundings. Voices take on a new and unfamiliar timbre, and all is so strange that one might fancy it is not flesh and blood that moves there but a dryad or other spirit of the trees about. But as James will declare, our steps are not so light as once. And "Now will you be tellin' me -where are ye off to. ..and it none too war-s--m, at all?" Pat stayed his axe and rested a foot on a unooth gray bole. ”To the store!" we called against the stiff wind of afternoon. And not sure that he had heard, in a raised voice we repeated "to the store -James is nearly out of tobacco!"

"Well there it is now" Pat chuckled "What a curse it is! And yet, How ewate! And ain't that the worst av it? 'Tis too swate! An' tell me now" he asked "does he be after fussln' now, supposln' hels clane out av it?"

9" - vi-raw 5 Cook's Corner N ' SAUSAGE-EGG SCRAMBLE

This is a thoroughly interesting egg dish-the tomato making it as different as the sausages do. We brown the sausages. simmer them a little in the tomato mixture. then add the beaten eggs and scramble the whole thing.

Keep the scramble soft-to over- cook it is to spoil it. Remember that even the heat of the pan will continue to cook it, so don't leave the mixture in the pan a moment after you remove it from the fire.

Yield-4 servings.

ANSWER: 'Ilhe two things that a woman shouldn't do when she suspects her husband of pbiiandering is to make scenes with him about it, and to humiliate herself by going to the "other woman" and asking her to give him up. Botih only serve to make a. bad matter worse.

There is nothing like a wifeis tears and re roaches to bring an in- cipient love affair to a head. Many a man w-h was on-ly amusing him- self by a flirtation that would have died of itself i-f left alone has had his wife literally drive him into the "other woman's” arms by her tak- ing it too seriously and going about with the air of a martyr. Sometimes a wife can laugh off her husband's affairs, but she can never cry thern

off.

In your particular case you seem to have no real evidence of your husband's in-fidelity. which makes it a doubly foolish thing for you to do anything except to try to overcome your jealousy and suspicions, and assume that things are as they always were between your and your

husband.

TUKTOYAUK. N. .T. Feb. 20 - (GP) - Teaching "On top of the world" may have its draw- backs, but trim Dorothy Robinson of Ottawa thinks it is the oppor- tunity of a lifetime.

In the bitter cold of this Arclic lhkimo village, 2.500 miles from home, the perseverlng 40-year-old teacher is finding the sense of free- dom and fulfilment she has been

searching in M yesrs' work in northern schools. Fighting influenza. frost and

ignorance. she has taken charge of the Federal Resources Depart- ment's most northerly school - a one-room affair at the mouth of the Mackenzie niver, more than 1,400 miles north of Edmonton.

As Canada's most northern teacher, Miss Robinson is faced with many irohlems - she is mentor, nurse, and cook and even Boy scout leader to her Eskimo charges.

The youngsters are great stu- dents, says Miss Robinson, but the older ones are more difficult. They can't understand how reading, writing and arithmetic will help them catch more fish. when a bout of infiuense hits the settlement. Miss Robinson turns the school into a hospital.

There is one thing about a skin disease. the patient sees it.when it starts and immediately decides to do something about it. This early treatment may be helpful or. what is more important. may be harm- ful. as the atient doesn't know the nature a the ailment. Because some ointment or paste is already in the house and has helped an- other member of the family. it is applied: to the - skin eruption. although it was prescribed for an entirely different ailment. in the Boston issue. Medical Clin- ics of North America, Dre. miss- ter M. Frazier and Roy W. Leeper. Massachusetts General Hospital. state that it is these factors that cause skin ailments to be treated with unwarranted and, inapprop- riste vigor. "I-low desirable a campaign would be to educate the lay public and physicians alike against using any home or gen- oral treatment. as has been suc- cessfuliy conducted by the surg- eons against the use of cathartics in the presence of the vague symp- toms of early appendicitis." Using a remedy for a skin sil- ment that is meant to soothe the ailment when what is needed, par- ticularly in chronic cases. is some- ithing to irritate it into more activity. an increase in the symp- toms. means that the soothing ointment only prolongs the caurse of the skin ailment present. Another point now fully recog- nized is that the course of an all- ment may differ with the person- ality, or physical, mental and emo- tlonal make-up. of the patient. Thus the treatment may vary for the same disease.

After discussing the common diseases of the skin-ache. psori- asis, eczema due to contact with various substances. fungus erup- tions. head and body lice. athletets foot. poison ivy and other plant: an

and pollen-Drs. Franzier Leeper conclude: "In the treat- ment of the common diseases of

the skin, the physician is con- fronted with the necessity of rec- ognizing the particular disease present, as it may be due to con- tact with various substances or due to some infection. Treatment must be directed against the cause, once the cause is recog- nized. The first thought then is to follow the wide general principle- flrst, do not harm. . Treatment is not a matter of doing somethinrz: it is one of pro- tr-cting or disinfecting the skin bv the most simple and reasonable method."

Try Festive Crab And Noodle Ring

Consider individual egg noodle rings with a crab meat filling for a festive ppring luncheon. 'I'he rings are made quickly by spoon- ing cooked noodles onto individ- ual serving plates. The fllling is made just as easily with the aid of canned mushroom soup and crab meat. It's all done on top of the stove and in only two pans. For a family meal, the same combination could be served from a large casserole. Simply line a greased casserole with cooked egg noodles, then fill the center with the crab meat sauce. Bake in a moderate oven (350 degrees PE), until heated through, about 15 to 20 minutes. and it's ready to bring to the table.
