Ellen ’e Diary

“A-heml” Juries cleared his throat some minutes ego in the silence, in a fashion which I have come to recognize as a preface to some remark. Work over for the day we have gathered about the table near the light, James w read his newspaper, Susan to finish s bit. of mending and I to my writ- ing. He stopped reading and looked at me over his glasses in a funny way he has when the pause la only for the moment. “The world's in a pretty bad state Ellen" he said "a pretty sad state!" "How do you mean?" I asked. "Oh, in many ways" he replied. "There's no peace ~well hardly anywhere. There's fighting going on in many coun- tries _ln the Holy Land, in China, in South America. The paper is full of it. tiie fighting and rioting and blckerings in countries an" among Nations. It. never use! ti. be like that." “But maybe they are more open about it nowadays’ f suggested. "And the crimes that are being committed now" he con- tinued “they needn't preach that the world is getting better with all the enlightenment of modern days. No indeed. it's worse I believe Such awful things as folks do in the way of crime -terrible things." “Like what?" f asked curiously. i. have had only a glance at the paper myself yet. snatching time to scan it hastily while Susan spread the table for dinner. We have been so taken up with our cleaning because refreshed by the week-end, we seemed to redouble our efforts in that direction to- day.

Q I O Adjusting his glasses. James read slowly -he always reads slowly. but there is nothing written there that escapes his notice except of course the funnies unless intvest- ed in them by Jamie, already a fan. and naturally any. fiction. which he condemns at once as un- true-“a woman threw her two- month-old baby on the kitchen fire and burnt it so badly it died short- ly afterward in hospital.” "Oh, myl" Susan exclaimed and I "But not on The Island?" seems as if I should like to keep it free of any such happenings, so lovely it is. Even today "when clouds hung grey,- near dusk the trees on the lawr. whispered quietly tozether - per- haps about the slim bow of moon that was then caught in the velvet of night above the wooded hill. "Ne, not on The Island" James replied "but in Canada all the sififilsifiwslfild Erhimgl" su san commented "to harm a poor little innocent clear." "And tortur- ed before" I offered, like Susan driven to vengeance by the very thought. But James commented "I guess if she has a conscience at all -tliat will be torment enough. She was drinking it seems." And now except for the shipping of thread -and Susan can sew s. neat seam. and the rustle of his paper, s pleasant silence reigns. I I I

Nothing of moment happened - or has been done at Alderlea to- day, f think. And yet. now that Jamie's face comes before me wl'.h so pleased an expression when ‘re heard the news, f recall that Tabby has had her kittens. Our oldest cat. she is aging. since she herself was s kitten before the war. Fed- ed now in her Jacob's cost of many colors but. still nth-active and wise she is in her years Deceltfully meek in expression, her paw rules the rest. at the cat pan. James was considerably nonplussed about. the affair. I overheard him tell it to Jamie who with Rob bad come briefly to the yard this mo: lng. “She's got them all right" mes said "though I'm blest if f can uu- derstand how she managed to get into the horse stable with the door and shutters closed tight. After w- came from there, she was still un der the stove warming herself - I saw her." "I guess, she's like that gnome we were reading about" I offered "the one that could make himself so small he could get through the tlnlssaplace."

Jamie laughed and asked inhe- ly: "How many?" “f ‘can't any" James answered "all I know is that they have arrived. f felt them there in s corner below one of the mangers, in a nest in the hay and they must. have come thrre last night sometime." James id not qualify his remarks to Jamie as he had previously done f0 me. when I bad asked the same ques- tion. "How many?" I queried "There's one less anyway’ be bad responded significantly. "but. I thought you intended to put an and w the number before their eyes were open" I reminded him. Jamel shrugged his shoulders. "f did - but. the youngsters would be ter- ribly disappointed ff all oi them disappeared" . . . “Ho-humf" Janos puts aside his paper, and node with no uncertain meaning towards the pantry. Lunch time has come Until tomorrow -Disry ,- Good- night. "

A good rule to remember is that. according to modern ullll any kind o! soup may be served in_ a Qrgjm-QQQQ cup in lpito 0f in name.

WASH FRUIT

Fresh pears, apples and other fruits are delicious to eat “right from the hand." but don't forget to wash them thoroughly if you are planning to cat. them with the skins on.

GADGETS LARGE AND SMALL MAKE HOUSEWORK EASIER

New lcitcheiicqufpnient ready for spring rating by Mrs. America will win an A plus for efficiency if in- genious nnd labour-saving design is the criterion.

Take, for example. a compact cabinet ivhich is 54 inches long and combines an electric dishwash- er, clothes washer and kitchen sink. Triple play comes from dishwasher drum and clothes tub that can oe interchanged for use under the black linoleum-topped dralnlboaru which adjoins a standard porcelain sink. One dial~ provides separate semi-automatic control for disli- ivashing and laundry.

For the thrice daily dishwashlng. the stainless steel dish drum has wire racks to hold service for six. Water — mixed with detergent for the sudslng —is whirled against dishes to cleanse them, After that.

' "Haven't. you made a fool of.

Lovelace let no trace of Pl!!! 9i"

I'm-any, you'll make mother pooh‘

hot air blows them dry.

when washday comes around, the dish drum makes way for the clothes tub which is stored in be- tween times wider the sink. A metal balance ivlieel slides under the tub to absorb vibrations when the motor is turned on. Operations of this gyro-disc eliminates the need for bolting down the cabinet. The tub is large enough to launder and spin-dry an eight-pound and.

Worth noting ~11 you already have a sliik _is that a smaller cabinet can be bought with just the dish drum and clothes tub zom- bination.

No less efficiently engineered are new devices to polish off the iiiggllng kitchen chores. A new juicer, for example, takes can. nf the juice from a wholeorange in one thrust- of» a hand-operated lever. The orange is the victim of n squeeze play between a cone- shaped strainer ridged with eignt saw-tooth cutting blades and the metal top which locks tightly in place.

The Stare Say--

I; Genevieve Rumble . For Tuesday, April 20

IT is s day for directing all the energetic pnd initiative on desired plans of major importance. Such must be tackled with energy. skill, constructive ability and well-ex- ecuted techniques. which are quite likely to run up against a difficult snag or impasse gt tenacious re- sistance. Flying off the handle. at- tempting to force issues by main force or unwise changes could prove disruptive, as could unfair criticism or rwcour. There is much progress and production for cairn and plmned action.

For the Birthday Those whose birthday it is have

lthe augury of a progressive and

productive year. with growth and expansion of l. new buildup of ma- jor significance. This against dis-

iruptlve and unexpected forces. up-

setting plans and blocking cori- structive work. largely by llIW-fl- perate words and deeds. acrid crit- icism and enmity. with lack of elmlablllty or efforts for friendly cooperation for joint benefit and progress. Moderation and good will have more power than “C7956!” or rash moves. \

TOO MUCH VITAMIN A AND PSORIASIS

One of the embarrassing skin dlsesese difficult to cure is psor- iasis. patches of white silvery scales on the skin.

when the scales are scraped off, they leave a red. bleeding surface. Tihese patches occur anywhere on‘ the face. body, and hands. oftenl being found on elbows and knees.’ Itching may be present or there may be no symptoms except the disfigurement. It is this disfigure- ment that lowers the morale of the patient.

In my student days the cause was believed due to nervousness or‘ emotional disturbances; and even today the cause is unkonwn. The treatment was Fowler's solutim (arsenic) internally and ammon- iated mercury ointment externally. ~ A few months ago I mentioned the success some physicians were obtaining by putting psoriasis put-- lent; on a fat-free diet, avoiding butter. cream, fat meals.
