On Sunday morning we plumbed the water in the rain- aarrel hopefully to gauge the iepth that had fallen during our ireams. and James scuffed a toe in the lawn and shook his head.

MacArthur Some twenty years ago the now beautiful and nationally known Garden of Beechwood was noth- ing more than a common plot of ground, part of farm at Cornwall. But a more picturesque site for an outdoor garden would be hard to find. To the north, a crescent- shaped grove of lovely beech trces lifted their heads to gaze across the West River, flowing majestic- ally on its way to join the waters of the Gulf Stream. "Why not start an outdoor gar- den here?" mused Mrs. MacMillan on a beautiful spring day back in 1930. "Just a little paradise where my husband and two sons could Join me for a quiet hour after the day's toil comes to an end." So twenty years ago the Flower Lady broke the dcwy soil with her own hands and planted a few flow- ers-the ones she liked bcst-hop- ing that her veiiture might nice: with just a little success. I repeat the word 'hopingl because Mabel MacMillan knew very little about how a flower should be planted ; and perhaps less how to take care I of flower childrcn once they litted their delicate heads above Mother Earth. 0 0 I Of one thing she was certain, namely: that she loved .tlovvers with a love that almost amounted to a passion. She knew too. that flower children ought to be pro- tected from too much heat as well as early frosts and bitter winds. Perhaps that's why on that spring day three decades ago she eyed with satisfaction the grove of beech trees and decided that Na- ture had supplied an ideal back- ground for her Beechwood gar- dens. Each year a bit more land was cultivated, and each year more flowers sprang up to keep their fellows company. and Mabel smil- ed her joy as she watched her venture grow from scratch into an outdoor garden that began to at- tract the attention of tourists. Meanwhile. the Flower Lady studied books on Horticulture. joined the Massachusetts Horticul- ture Society, experimented with different flowers, and worked till her back ached in the hot summer sun. At the end of twelve years she had progressed beyond her fond- est dreams.

Through the years Mabel MacMil- Ian has known the iflower touch'. and these lovely children of Na- ture know ilie Flower Lady quite as well as they do their own sis- ters and brothers. Today Mrs. MacM:lian is recog- nized as an authority on the spec- ies of flowers she grows. and ex- hibits from her gardens have won many prizes in various parts of the Dominion. But all this did not come about through Lady Luck. On the con- trary. her success is due to the toil. tears. and sweat ofitiveniy years. Many thousands of touri.s'.s have looked upon this shrine of beauty and have gone away the happier because they carried with them a mental picture of the West River. the stately beech trees, and the spruce and honeysuckle hedge. as well as the enchanting gardens and the Flower Lady whose years of loving care and devotion to her hobby have made a little bit of heaven out of a common piece of earth. Looking back over the years Mabel can view the wonders wrought by her own hands and sing: "What is Heaven?

This drug is known in Great Britain as My- anesln and in the United states as Toisei-oi. Its great value lips in the fact that it causes complete relax- ation of nerves and muscles. yet. the patient does not become drowsy or unconscious. In "The Journal of Pharmacol- ogy and Expeiii-mcirtal The:atep- tics," Drs. Elwood I-lcniimian, Arn- old Kaplan, and Klaus tfnna, t'ni- versity of Illinois College of Medi- cine. state that it is now possible to estimate or measure spasm or spastlclty. They have been able to show that Myanesln can hurry the action of the nerves supplying muscles. causing spasm. and can also slow up the action of these nerves, relieving spasm. In "Medical Clinics of North America." Dr. Richard T. Smith. Rheumatolcgist, Jefferson Medical College Hospital. Philadelphia. states that in the majority of rheu- matic disordeis spasm of muscles is responsible for a considerable degree of disability. discomfort and loss of use. spasm may be produc- ed by exposure to excessive heat or cold. overextcnsion of the muscle. sprains of strains. direct injury. overuse of certain muscles not generally used for the work or ex- ercises being taken. and loss of muscle tissue. The spasm may cause mild stiffness or almost total loss of the use of the muscle Among the methods used to re- lieve spasm are prostigmlir. curare. procaine, passive and active exer- cises and various types of electrical current. "However. new drugs such as Myanesln and Tolserol promise more far-reaching benefit either atom or in conjunction with other methods of treat-.-nent." The great value of Tolsei-ol in the treatment of rheumatic pain caused by spasm is that. it relaxes spasm of muscle without causing paralysis. Furthermore. it can ea-- ily be seen that it relaxed muscle can he exercised or massaged to a greater extent. thus increasing cir- culation in the muscle and remov- ln wastes which cause pain and stiffness. Until cortisone and ACTH are available in good supply. the use of Tolserol or Myanesln is worth a trial.

I came to a little Western town to visit my alatcr. Here I met a man who fell for me at once and I married him, because I didn't want. to live with rolatlvoa and I was too lazy to get out and get. a job and make my own living. I knew I didn't love him but ho thought I did. and null doea. and ho to crazy about me. I have only been married a few months and I am nick and tired of it. We live in a dingy little apartment. Nothing to do. nowhere to So. no omuoement . If we could move to a larger town. it would not be ao bad. If a better man should happen my way I would quit my husband in a minute. but a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush and I am not aivina up one man untll,I have another in view. What shall I do? Shall I strike out for myaelf, for I tell myself that since this man felt so easily there must be plenty of othera who would do the same. or shall I rot in this place. pretending to be in love with my husband? ELEANOR ANSWER: I really think that the kindest thing you could do to your husband would be to leave him at once. for you will do it sooner or later, anyway. as soon as some man comea along who can Jingle a little more money before you or take you to some gayer place to live. HUSBAND TO BE PITIED It seems a pity for a fine. honest man like your husband to have to spend his life tolling for a wife who merely regards him as a meal ticket and who floes not repay his labor and his sacrifice; by even so much as a thought of gratitude or appreciation. Any man is lucky to be rid of that kind of wife. and the quicker she is on her way the better for him. . But. let me tell you. Eleanor. that you will never find any hap- piness in marriage as long as you make it a racket. and regard a hus- band as merely a slave to work and support you in order that you may be fed and clothed and have nothing to do but amuse y0ur8l'ii- You get out of marriage just exactly what you put into it. If you put love And a sense of duty and a desire to make your husband happy and to make your marriage a success into it. you will get happiness and contentment out of it. But If YOU 20 into it ll-I51!” the ease and money you can wring out of it. you will get nothing but disappointment and disllluslon. For marriage is a sacrament. It isn't a Kraft. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am a girl of 15 with a sister age 5. My mother is a widow and has wflported us for elzht YeiITS- She ll in her early thirties. and now she has fallen in love with a man and wants to marry him. He is a fine man with a good lob. Very CV9"- tempcrcd nnd pleasant. but they will not marry because I object. The man says that he will not marry my mother unless I will co-operate to make our home a happy one and will promise to treat him as if he was a real father. I am very jealous of my mother's affection for him. Will you please tell me If I should promise to try to like this m.-in? I will tollow your advice. DOROTHY ANSWER: Well, if you follow my advice. Dorothy. you will with- draw your objections to your mother; marrying this kind. good man. and you will conquer your jealousy and treat him with the respect that you would show your own father. Consider in the first place that you have no real cause for jealousy. because the love that your mother will give to her. husband is en- tirely different from that which she gives to her children. The two emotions do not conflict in any way and nothing is sillier than to compare them. if you love your mother her happiness must be your dearest con- cern. and you must know that she will be far better off in every way and with fl good husband who will stand between her and the world and take care of her than she will be struszling along alone. trying to support two children. Your mother is in her early thirties. She Is still a young woman with doubtless a ion! time to live. and you must realize that the years will be lonely and desolate to her if she has no companion after you and your sister leave her to go about the business of life for yourselves. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: We have two friends who were married several years ago. The wife cares nothing for her husband. She rheapens herself in flirtation: and is unfaithful to him. The husband warships his wife and does not Inspect her. He is the type of man who mlizht really become desperate. What can bo done about this mess? Shall we tell the husband? TWO ONLOOKERS ANSWER: Ncvcr interfere between a man and his wife unless you want to get into trouble yourself. Telling the husband that his wife doesn't love him and has affairs with other men won't make her fond of lilm or true to him. It will serve no good purpose. DOROTHY DIX cannot reply personally to roadero. but will ano- wer problems of general Interest through her column.
