He has achieved the honour of becoming Ambassador to the Court of bt. James, and the very day that was publicly announced, his 2o year old daughter Constance, eloped with a 22 year old Peruvian, Carlos Val- ardo. Connie went to Lima, Peru, in connection with a hospitilization plan of the Peruvian Social Security Board, and ivithout saying “by your leave” to her Dad ran away and got tnarricd at Chinela. I! Ii i U Pierre Corneille, French dramatist, died this date I684. He was the father of the French drama-one of the greatest, if not the greatest, of French tragic writers, and a pioneer of French comedy. His genius was essentially romantic. ln breaking with the stilled style of earlier writ- ,ers of tragedy, Corncille led the way towards the ilater romantic drama. His great work brought him little itionciary return, and in his later years he was superseded in public favour by Racine. His ntasterpiece is Le Cid, and his greatest com- edy Le Menteur, equal to many of Molicrcs. His finest lyrical work is contained in the tragedy- ballet Psyche, written in conjunction with hlolicre and Quinatilt. lfifllik Discovery that a Common eitzytttc, fantilizir for its part in catisiug potatoes to darken, will reduce dangerously high blood pressure in human pat- icnts and clear up the cyc and licurt symptoms in ihigh blood pressure is ztnuouitccd by Dr. llcnry A.
