When a man is dancing with I girl, and another man "cuts in" an him, is it all right for him to cut back on that man in a few minutes? A. Never. However. it is all right for him to cut in on a third man, if he wishes, and especially if he is giving the girl "a rush." Q. Is it all right to tise a folded napkin to brush crumbs off the dinner table? A. Yes. this is quite all right. and it usually docs a good Job. amp.-,..g-..-,x 7()xDx.' r s That Body Of Your: .8: June: W.l!uIon.l.D. DEFICIENT DIET CAUSE VVEAJKNESS. TIBEDNESS. LACK OF AMBITION When a patient consults a phy- sician because he feels weak, tired, and without ambition to do any mental or physical work, and the physician, after careful physical examination. tells the patient. "There is nothing physically wrong with you," what is the reaction of the patient? in Canadian Medical Association Journal, Dr. C. J. Barborka states that the patient understands that the physician considers him a neu- rotic, an individual who believes he has some disease when no dis- ease is present.

PlIlllIPS' MILK OF MAGNESIA TABLETS thel by actual lack of food. I've written before of the tests made in indus- trial workers where it was found that the weak feeling present to- ward the close of the working day was due to hunger, lack of suffic- ient food. and not to tiredness from work. While great lack of food causes, diseases such as rickets or peilagra tlack of appetite. indigestion, burn- ing sensations of hands and feet, depression, dizzinessi. the less sev- ere denciencies are not so easily recognized such as log of weight land strength. indigestion. diarrhoea or constipation, and nervousness land irritability. Dr. Barborka points out that this food deficiency causing the above symptoms is discovered from the history of the patients diet, recog- nizing the factors influencing dig- estion. absorption and use of food in the body. laboratory tests of they vitamin levels and watching the re-; suits of special treatment with vita- min concentrates. The therapeutic or special dietl for food deficiency must be essent- ially a "normal" diet, and should not differ in quantity or qualityi from the normal diet "only as is necesary to combat the disease state against which it is employed." The diet must be emotionally and psychically (mentallyl acceptable to the patient and care must be taken that all essential nutritional factors (minerals. vitamins) are provided. Now, there are likely times when we all get these symptoms - tired- ness, weakness. no ambition to work or play-and it may be called or even be due to neurasthenia (mental and physical fatigue), but unless the physician enquires into your diet, the fact that lack of an all-round diet may be causing the symptoms may not come to light. The all round or adequate diet is just our ordinary diet - meat, vegetables. bread .- plus the pro- tective foods - milk and other dairy products. plus leafy vegetab- les and fruits. m Dussliold Serspl5oolt' ly Roberts Lee q leuralgls For face neuralgia apply dry flan- nels as hot as can be borne.

W that interval of happy living and deep peace which followed, when all the ties we named were those record- ed by some factual pen on the pages of History-books of school. Wars . . . they were outmoded! Only rash kings of old. lacking better excitement or with covet- ous eyes on some other kingdom ever went to war. In this day and age. people knew better! Nations grew and prospered and apparently were well content. We learned .our les. sons, roamed country fields and shores; attended Church and Sun- day School - and in time. "The Endeavour." And slept soundly serene in thought of the Angel- watch guarding our pillow, the King's Navy our shores. And life was good, exceedingly promising and fair . .. and War, a foyggt. ten word. Life. we recall. was even better when we came in time to the exactments of a country school ma'anils life. Our horizon had broadened appreciably; our occu- pation was interesting.

And we felt the sombre dark of the years . .. and collected mop- ey from farmfolks for this or that soldier-comfort . . . and sacks or onto for the horses-of-war, we added the Oath of Allegiance to our ceremony of school and sang "God Save the King" with much Sllpplication in our voice.

The yl and of the Rural Beautification Society have always believed this to be true and at the annual meeting and banquet last week I happy time was enjoyed by all. The competition for community beautification was the. outstanding aooornpltsnment of this society and the president said "In some of the entries as many as twenty-five homes and public buildings in the community were entered in this competition, and the work and en- thusiasm of the folk doing this worl: was something to see." No- thing very good or very great as done without enthusiasm. and those taking part in this endea- vour are to be congratulated. Many of the homes had been beautified with shrubs, plants and buim from the Cotton Memorial Nursery and the man who gave this Nursery to all who live on Prince Edward Island was in a happy mood when he saw his plans coming true. From all sections of the Island the competitors came to receive their trophies and it was and In- spiration to see the interest they all took in the "before and after" nhotog-raphs of the different homes.
