f-fgc-iss Ends The! Civ_e an Old Look

Middle Age Starts It Middle

That discouraging matronly bulge at the waist! You push it in, girdle it in, but out it pops-unless you exercise it away!

Middle age begins at the middle. Abdominal muscles may get slack as early as 25, and when they do, it means a thickening waist, droop- ing shoulders, a forward head and then-a "dowagcrs hump." You'll be looking old while still young.

So harden your abdominal muscles, be slim-waisted, erect, young! This exercise gets happy results if you do it faithfully every day:

1. Lie on back, arms at sides, knees bent, feet flat on mat.

2. Lift hips upward and pull in abdominal muscles hard, at the lame time raising an-ns overhead.

3. Return to position. Repeat five times and rest; another five times Ind rest.

Or is your special problem fatty hips or heavy legs or a drooping bust?

Our 32-page booklet has exer- cises to remedy those figure faults. too. Tells how to correct poor pos- ture. faults of shoulders, bust, arrnl, waistline. Gives exercises to relieve foot troubles, constipation, nervous tension, also a daily routine for the entire body.

CHAPTER I INTO THE UNKNOWN

"ﬁlello! What's this?"

Captain Daintry brought the car to a. squelchins standstill. His daughter Myrle lowered the win- dow and leaned out. Rain from the New Zealand sky fell devastatingly on a hat bought two months prev- iously in Hanover Squa.re—Myrle drew her head in again quickly,

“Just a river across the road." she announced.

Mrs. Damtry, in her nest of rugs and cushions in the back seat, burst out plaintively:

"It. must be the wrong road. It can't just end in a. river."

"They said it. was the road to- ah-Petersdown," protested Captain Daintry, unhappily. “lt—ah—goes on on the other side of the river."

New discontent, with the land her

arents had chosen as their future ome burned in Myrles eye as she unrolled the road map of the prov- ince of Canterbury. She traced the windings of the road. from the last outpost of civilization they had passed, a little tin townlet of road workers’ huts ten miles back, . . .

“Here we are, ‘Kohwai River.’ It says ‘Ford.’ "

The car jolted down the shingle bank into the muddy swirl of water. Grimly clutching the wheel. Captain Daintry gazed tensely ahead.

Three yards to go. He opened his H1011"! W Say. “We're through!" when the car sputtered.

It died, and the car stopped, its prlmm“ ‘tlssance. built for the smooth highways between Knights- bridge and Piccadilly, hub-deep in the yellow tlcle._

Head down to the rain Mvrle walked back along the roacL-it was hardly more than a track-rtowards the last sign of human life they had seen. Only a single homestead. at least four miles away, and even then perhaps they would have no means of towing the car out of the stream.’ " She had left her father and mother sheltering under a. wil- low, her mother refusing to allow her father to go to ﬂnd help. Myrle had settled it by walking off herself.

The rain rapidly completed the ruin of her ex nsive hat. She turn- ed the heel o her shoe in a rut in the road, and wrenched her ankle.

To have travelled twelve thousand miles to get to such a place!

“What madness!" thought Myrie.

Thev were on their way to a sheet! farm her father had bought in the back countr . Poverty. not inclin- ation, had riven them to give up all they cared about in England. Her father had spent two years as I "cadet" on a New Zealand sheep station in his youth. and pretended that he was longing to get back to the open spaces. But the truth was that when her father's money was lost in a company fraud they could none cf them face the prospect cf genteel poverty in London, Even Myrle had encouraged her father to sink the last of his capital in this

overseas venture.

Now she looked dubiously round the towering heights of the chaotic hills. half hidden behind shiftinl veils of rain. The town of - church through which they had driven on their way from the boat. promised little in the way 0f dis- traction, even if one could get in it over these frightful roads.

"It's going to be ghastly," said Myrle aloud. to the towering quiet of the landscape. "We shall be bored to extinction."

CARING FOR BOUGHT PLANTS AND SHRUBS

Bedding plants and shrubs which have been purchased from nursery- men oftcn arrive at a time when planting cannot be done for a few days. During this period of wait- ing they require careful treatmcu: On no account should they be lcfi wrapped up in the packages which they arrive, as such close confinement will cause the leaves u. turn yellow and the shoots to rot off. The best method is to remove the paper wrappings, then pack the plants closely in shafow boxes with a little soil about the roots. They should be watered. placed in a cool place or cold frame and shaded from bright sunlight to prevent wilting.

THE VICTORIA CROSS

when the decoration of tne vic- toria Cross was first instituted B6 years ago by Queen Victoria it was decreed that the medals should be struck from the metal of guns cap- tured by the British forces at Se- vastopol. The supply of that metal has now given out and a new sup- ply of gimmetal has had to be se- cured for the purpose from ihe mint, reports the Victoria Colonist. The firm of tendon jewellers that made the first Victoria Cross still holds the royal warrant for mak- inrv the medals. The Times minis out that “the commissions for the crosses have gone through only

three men- the founder of the firm, his son, and his grandson, onu of the present directors, who is in the army. The jewellers keep a. record of the names and deeds of the men who have been awarded the V.C. It contains nearly 1,190 names.

The newest newcomer who can only say "Bw-s00....gaa-gaa" and is still a cherub with pink wings to his mother, will, get a sugar coupon ration card. His name will go 0n the application "ltd along with the names of other members of his family. And like other members of his family, whether they be mother and father or big brother or little sister, he will receive his own ration card on July 1. Where children are

in born aft/er the date of national rc-

glstration, the parent may apply for a ration card for the baby as soon as it is born, The application should be forwarded to the nearest ration office of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board.
