FOUR NEW COLORS ON SPRING HORIZON Four subtle new colors are mak- ing fashiorf news this Spring. Dis- tinctlvely new, distinctively 1949. Each tone has a fresh new over- cast, which comblnes depth of color with an unusual delicate softness. They are featured for Canadians by the Bruck Mills in their pageantry colors for Spring 1949. The new shades are called Har- lequin Blue, Pavilion Pink, Frolic Blue and Tombola Tan. They will appear in the Spring collections of Canadian stylists from coast to coast. Harlequin Blue is a. soft slate blue with a light grey cast; Pavilion is an almost-rose with a tawny tone; Frolic is a. misty aqua, more subtle than aquas of past seasons; Tombola, between a tan and beige, is a new member of the spice shades. Because of their subdued color, these shades form lovely combinations, their range flattering to all types and color- ings. . In the new Bruck range of Spring shades there are 20 colors in all. with the smoke shades predomin- ating. There's s. new cake pan that con- serves precious storage space by minimizing kitchen gear. The heavy-gauge pan has a tubular in- sert that comes with it for baking sponge cakes and angel food. Re- move the tube, and the pan is llist the thing for baking casserole dishes. and puddings — or for stove- top cooking. Shells for cooking and serving scalloped or creamed fish arevpretty and convenient, You can use them over and over again, so they are practical as well as dressy. A handy item for the cook is a a checked gingham apron with quilte pockets. These pockets hold a pair of quilted mitts for picking up hot pans. Theisnitts are long enough to cover up the Wrists to prevent burns from steam. You can have your choice of colors in the gingham-blue, green, yellow or red. The set would make a nice present for a new bride. for the entire cooking, without a cover. Always place fat side o1’ roast up- wards so that fat will drip down sides of roast, making basting un- necessary. Iif necessary, ask your butcher for a piece of suet. to place _ on top of your roast. The roastcooked at s. lower tem- perature than we have been accus- tomed to using, decreases shrinkage considerably and will be lovely and moist. r 1n using the old method the mast is seared in a hot oven 400 F. until browned and then covered and the heat is reduced to 35oF. for the balance of the time. u-s-s-ss-Jun-qn... PREVENTING DEATHS IN , INFANTILE DIABBBOIA Physicians of today do not on- counter the great number of cues of summer diarrhoea of former years. A child who had passed safely through its second summer was considered fortunate by par- ents and physicians. However when children's special- ists taught mothers how to feed their children properly summer diarrhoea almost disappeared. In- deed it was preventing deaths uy proper feeding-that is still consid- ered the flrst and perhaps greatest forward step in lengthening the life span of men and women. Notwithstanding the greax suc- cess of saving children's lives by preventing diarrhoea it is only too true that there are still foo many cases of infantile diarrhoea that are not helped despite a carefully selected diet. It was only natural, therefore, that a strong drug be tried to kill the harmful organ- ism or organisms causing the in- flammation of the intestine with consequent diarrhoea. Iin “Pediaticsfl Springfield, Ill. Drs. Elrira Goettsch G. Coblcy and M Mulloy report the results of iheir treatment of infant diarrhoea in a severe epidemic in 1945. These phy- siciang found that in cultures fro-m the lining of the nose and throat. and from the urine, there were cer- tain organisms usually found in the colon (large intestine). As the usual treatment for in- fantile diarrhoea. was not. helping these cases, they dceided to use the new drug, streptomycin, whichus proving effective in killing the or- ganlsms causing various diseases. ‘they found that the effective dose for infantile diarrhoea to be. 5 grams injected into the muscles and .5 grams by mouth per day, for seven to ten days. The response of seriously ill in- fants with diarrhoea to streptomy- cin was dramatic because it rapid- ly killed the organisms causing the diarrhoea. In addition to the strep- tomycin, the infants were given antigen (amino acids) by mouth. "The use ol streptomycin and the food mrnigem by mouth. together with the treatment used in prev- ious years, effectively shortened the hospital stay. decreased the amount of fluids injected into the veins, and reduced the death rate. Dur- ing the eight month period of ob- servation no deaths occurred that could have been csiueed by diar- rhoea.” DIET SUGGESTIONS IN MUCOUB COLITIS Many ailments such as mucous colitis require that we obtain s. calm outlook on. life as the most import.- ant thing. “Diet Suggestions in Mticous Colitis," a leaflet by Dr. Barton, may help many.

The Stars Say-- By Genevieve Ramble Monday, Ayril l8 MONDAYS horoscope indicates a progressive and promising state of affairs, with the plans. resources and ambitions keyed to advanced goals. Be astute and sagacious in working out ideas with an eye to change, and new contacts. Change of scene and associations lure. Nevertheless, brilliant as the pros- pects seem, there may be pitfalls, schemes or some form of duplicity. subtlety or sinister intrigue. An alert vigilance from every angle could assure lucrative and interest- ing change. For the Birthday Those whose birthday it is may be incited by an urge for new pas- tures, associatlons and engage- ments, in which fresh fields of op- eration offer dynamic and profit- able experlences. with vigilance and prior study of varied advant- ages there may be pleasant and lucrative relations, with vivid and inspiring change. However. there is need for exceptional vigilance. since there may be deep - laid schemes, snares, supercially allur- ing and sound. but with a sinister undertone of the tricky, crafty and hypocritical, in business and-per- sonal oontecis. - A child born on this day should be talented. resourceful and versa- tile, and should enjoy a brilliant career. It may, however, be an easy victim to iirsfty. subtle and dubious schemes or personages.

This we - recall is the first sight we have had of one of these quiet friends of ours since Autumn took them away from our neighborhood and ken. We find them with much in- terest and- admiration throughout themselves in the placid pond or at the shallow edges of the pools below the waste-gates on the dam, so still there that one is sometimes puzzled to make out which is the shadow and which the substance. O O O When Summer mornings are tint- ed with coral hues, and our world with its milking and separating and calf-feeding has commenced, and the dew in a magic carpet lies richly-yet; over lawn and meadow. held there by the bewitching webs of the night spinners, then a lone one, or it may- be a pair of them, come out of the rosy horizon above the river. And when our day has been lived, how well or ill. we know not, and the fading rays of the aun- set guild the wooded hilltops and evening begins to bless the country- side with its calm and peace, then from the haunts of day in the vicin- ity they rise to disappear-these strange leggy creatures, into the backdrop of sky to the east, dim as now with the approaching twi- light. I I I James too has disappeared into the evening, riding easily the Nell- mare. She of all the stable is pre- ferred for any light driving and being quick and light of foot she is one chosen by any rider. This continues to be a favorite mode of travel with James over shorter dis- tances. a custom thoroughly acquir- ed during his young and motorless years. There was a time when we could bridle and ride a horse, though not too casually, ourselves, and we remember now how pleasant it was in later years to revive the practice in the haying season -—- when we were privileged to help at the raking, and lndolence. or perhaps when pressed for time we mounted the mare, more laboriously. than once, and usually from a con- venient shaft or fence rail. in the frequent goings and comings be- tween home and fielduor in tra- versing the mile between here and Rob's. We much enjoyed this trip. though we were careful to grip the reins tightly as well as the names, to be more cerLtaLn o_f safe passage! James has gone to Rob's to visit the family, and incidentally to in- spect the livestock and all there. His fatherly interest extends to the condition of this or that heifer or horse or pig and he will also take stock of present supplies of feed to satisfy himself that sufficient is on hand to bring all comfortably "through." He is sometimes in- clined to be critical of Rob's far- ming. Not that he ever finds any Mslect there. but he is often con- cerned. while the rest of the family is amused at Rob's liking to col. lect those of the cattle-kindln his stables, until every nook- and cor. ner holds liquid-eyed animals, small and larger, and Karolyn informed of another purchase declares laugh- iflsi "Well. I wonder where we shall put this one? Yes, it will have i0 R0 in the parlor!" So James Bets perplexed over this trait. "That boy's bought another." he will say after an outing there. "oh, a bit of a thing. though he likely paid plenty for it!" And ‘then comes Summer, and a spell of pgg. MAKE TOWEL!

According to the old adage, God helps those who help‘ themselves; and you can never expect to be anything but a door met as long as you lie down and let selfish and aggressive people trample over Personally, I have little sympathy with enough backbone to defend their own homes. You are not only lacking in courage, you are lacking in common ‘I sense when you let yourself be victimized by your neighbors’ children. What you should do is to turn youryaffiiction into profit. Put e good high fence. with e strong gate, around your place and then announce to your neighbors that it is a playground for children, where they will be kept safe and taken care of for a reasonable price. No doubt this will make your greedy neighbors mad, for they had counted on you being silly end weak enough to be their etoole. but they won't be angry enough to take care of their own children. They will pay for the service when they find they can't deadbeat it.
