"Two cups of cooked po;ls'nnd'bcans. 1 cup of cooked rice. 1 cup of bread crumbs. 1 egg. 1 tablespoon of fat. 1-2 tablespoon salt. pepper. Add one quart of water."

THE FALLING LEAVES

Lightly He blows. and'at I-fis breath they fall.

The perishing kindreds of the leaves; they drift,

Spent flames of scarlet, gold aerial,

Across the hollow year, noiseless and swift.

Lightly He-blows, and countless as the falling - Of snow by night upon a solemn

sea. The ages circle down beyond re- s calling. To strew the hollows of Eternity. He sees them drifting through the spaces dim, And leaves and ages are as one to Him. -C. G. D. Roberts.

Roses are blooming in the gar- den and I have never seen them so fine at this season of the year; the lovely New Dawn fragrant climber in pale pink. and the sin- gle Dainty Bess with the golden stamens and grand fragrance and many many other varieties. The beauty in the October garden means that there is all of six months that we can enjoy our gar- dens in this country. and if there are evergreens and good design, it is always a joy.

A gift of bulbs of Solomon's Seal has been received from a garden visitor and it is always a pleasure to hear from anyone who has visit- ed the garden. she tells me that these bulbs grow about two feet tall with curving fronds like a fern, these plants will be some- thing new to look forward to next Summer. Lawns should be mown until they stop growing. as the grass will winter much better short. than long and matted, and the lawns have been a great asset to the gardens this summer with the abundant moisture all season.

Twenty new perennial Phlox have been planted this autumn; these are excellent large-flowered varieties in crimson. violet-blue. salmon-pink. white with soft pink eye called September Show as it blooms late, thus extending the Phlox season.

DOROTHY ux ,SAY

Z Unfaithful Husband. dMan Che-als Yet Begs Wife Not To Leave DEAR MISS DIX: I have been married sixteen years. My hus-

hand has just, one affair after another with women. but when I tell him I do not want to stand in the way of his happiness and that I will gladly give him his freedom if he wants to marry one of these women, he begs me not to get a divorce. Say: that he doe! not want me to leave him and that I am the only one whom he loves. and that he would not want to live if it were not for me. He treat: me

- with the utmost consideration and kindness. shows me all kinds of affection. yet he'll unfaithful to me. I cannot understand the contradiction. What would you advise me to do in this case? As far as money is concerned. I can take care of myself. so that, does not have to be considered. In,spite of all that he has done I love my husband with all my

heart and soul. MRS. BROKENI-IEARTED.

. W ' ANSWER: For some women who are afflicted with unfaithful husbands. divorce is like a major surgical operation that cures. It cuts away the canker in their lives, and when they are no longer tortured by the pangs of -jealousy that gnawed at their hearts, they are well. They can put the past behind them. Forget the husbands who have neglected them and be gay and happy. and perhaps find solace in another husband. -

SOME CAN'T TAKE DIVORCE

But there are other women to whom divorce is death. They do not survive the operation. They have no lives outside of their hus- bands and if they separate from them they are the most forlorn. miserable. purposeless creatures in the world. ' I think that you belong to this latter type of one-man woman and that you will be happier with your husband, putting up with his infideiities, condoning his neglect. enduring the shame he puts upon you. than you would be if you let him. As it is you see him daily. you have a part in his life. you have the interest of making a

forennger. Never try to do this by Lu-

LEARNING OUR HEALTH

INTELLIGENCE Quorlcnr

We are all more or less familiar with what. are known as lntellig. ence tests. in which the subject, is asked a number of questions about everyday affairs. how he would -act under various conditions or cir- cumstances. and other very prac- W11-questions. From the way these questions are answered. the ques- tloner estimates the amount or degree of the intelligence of each person. and the score is called his Intelligence Quotient; (I. Q.)

?0nulIr magazines. also. fre- quently set 20 questions about var-

ious world affairs or conditions and the reader then marks his own standing.

In I similar manner. insurance companieshave worked out I set of questions whereby policy hold- ers may determine their l-lealth Intelligence quotients. '

The insurance companies make three general statements before the policy holder takes the test.

1. Are your health habits such as to improve your health or other- wise? .

2y Pliyolcal fitness depend: on good 'heIlth hliblto. Faulty health habits lessen your mental and phy- IicIl Ibillty Ind are I factor in cIuslng.mI.oy physical defects or Iilment.s,-

a.'A- men a of your good health might. be called your ffeIith Intelligence Quotient (H. I. Q) check following list. Total Yes answers. then multiply by 10, Ind the result: is your Health Intellig- ence Quotient. -

(1). 1lIve you I regular bed- time? (2.) no you take I daily rest? (8.) Do you refrain from overdolnr It work or eating when ovoftired? (4.) Do you take legu- lIr. vocations? (5,) Do you out moderately. slowly Ind It meal- time only? (8.) Are your mealtimes regular? (7.) Have you I Mgular time of bowel movement? (0.) Do

It was only this morning that our farmers. busy fellows that they are, completed the Fall threshing. The anticipation presented its con- cerns. At breakfast, James picked up a. piece of toast to test it in a way he had to prove whether or not it was already buttered. "I don't hold with the theory- that butter- ing it hot will make it harder to di- gest, Ellen" he will say.."It tasted better that way, and after all. don't we eat to satisfy our tasies'l" -And finding it to his liking he observed gravely "I don't see how we're go- ing to get along at the threshing today. Ellen . . . If we just: had 'somebody' to empty the grain; But he sighed baltingly "I reckon we'll manage. There's only a few loads anyway!" And out of doors the sun seeped goldenly into the valley. A drift of sparrows on brownish, light wings flew down to settle on it rose bush, all except one that balanced gully on the crimson of a verandah vine beyond a window. And "This is going to be a nice day" we said "sunny and lovely." 0 0 0 Three helpers tho farmer: Ic- qulred with our assistance - a wo- man and two willing lads. Jamie held the sacks that received the grain. and kept an eye to the way of the chaff. so that it might not un- duly heap up to distress or clog the machine blowing the straw in a pale stream to the heights of a loft. Gage, more care-free, kept watch for any prowling mouse that could make I meal for the kittens at hand. and fetchedand carried at adult request. And almost before we expected it. the engine was halted

rolled; and the threshing was over for the season. . . "And what. then?" Jamie begs his grandfather to con- tinue some fascinating tale of the ycster-years. "What then?" Jamie laughs. his eyes on the clock. "Why then" he suggests "it was time to go.to bed!"
