Of course, in this there is pprhaps the danger of going to an extreme. For this reason it is of parâ€" ticular value and interest to read an article" regarding "State Medicine," such as the one by Dr. John W. S. McCullough in the current issue of "Canadian Health." The article deals with the question from all angles and makes neither the mistake of adoptâ€" ing a "hardâ€"boiled" attitude, nor yet that of being unduly "soft" in the matter. Dr, John W. 8.

Consult For Best By Every Test/ Try The Advance Want Advertisements The advantages of the system to the doctors are an assured income, paid _ every three months, and no bad debts _among the class, many of whom had formerly been treated gratuitously. The disadvantages are an excess of clerical work, restriction in the use of expenâ€" sive drugs, the tendency of routine practice to lessen the doctor‘s morale and his ambition to improve himself. The advantage to the insured person is assured medical attention; the disâ€" advantage, lack of specialist attention. The general disadvantages are the tendency of insured persons to stay on the sick benefit too long, with conâ€" sequent reduction of the public morale and the excessive expense, lack of any associated public nealth work and the enormous total cost. In the conâ€" sideration of any scheme of medical services in a community of such huge dimensions as Canada one is conâ€". fronted with enormous difficulties. These are not insurmountable. ‘One. can scarcely fail to conclude that the difficulties will best be met by a uniâ€" fied system for the whole country. While this plan may be expensive it would be much less in the aggregate than if there were one plan for each of the nine provinces. _ l The author concludés his article by stating: "One hopes that if state mediâ€" cine becomes an accomplished fact that its administrative costs may be kept within reasonable bounds, that there shall be a continuance of the present close and happy relation beâ€" tween patient and doctor and that pubhc health shall gain its proper place in any scheme that may be evolved." With reference to this scheme in 1916 the average income of the fund per member was $7.91 and the averâ€" age expenditure $5.09. In 1930 the inâ€" come was $11.26 and the expenditure $11.03. During the period 1921â€"27 the claims of men for sickness rose by ¢1 per cent.; those of unemployed women 'by 60 per cent., those of marâ€" ried women by 106 per cent. and in all three categories the rise in disâ€" ablement benefit was even higher. The author takes up the question of state medicine by reviewing the hisâ€" tory of the systems of health in Canaâ€" da and other countries. He states "The difficulties inherent in any system of state medicine are enormous. The wage earner‘s inability to pay for the vare he needs and the doctor‘s inabiliâ€" ty to get the income he deservesâ€" aren‘t those part of the larger probâ€" lem whose solution depends on the economic health of the whole counâ€" try?" ‘The national health insurance of England is fully described and he deals with the sources of income and benefits and medical service. trouble to secure a copy of "Canadian Health" and read this article by Dr. John W.

So often spices are associated in our minds with hot foods that we are apt to use them only for cold weather cookery. However, not all spices are "peppery." Even spicy gingerbread has an afterâ€"cooling effect. Try this recipe to prove it. It is not a rich cake.

Always rememâ€" per that it is usually the trace that can hardly be detected that is the most interesting and effective. There are exceptions to this rule. For inâ€" stance, celery seed generously used in potato salad or slaw improves the flavour for most people. Taste is the test. i A few wellâ€"chosen seeds or sprigs of herbs in salads give the magic touch which has made chefs famous. Recipes are difficult to give because seasoning is a delicate matter. The rule is to proceed with caution, but However, many cooks overlook enâ€" tirely the possibilities of spices in their everyâ€"day ccoking. A dash of ground cloves in rarebit or cheese sauces does something that is difficult to describe, but pleasant to taste. Some people like a trace of sage, mace or nutmeg with cheese. The child, and also the adult, who dislikes milk, will find it transâ€" formed in flavour and appearance it little ground nutmeg or cinnamon is sprinkled on it. Spicy Adventures in the Art of Cooking ing lands and new routes to the old markets. If suddenly all our spices were taken away from us, we should miss them andâ€" find our plain foods rather unâ€" interesting. We could then better apâ€" preciate the zeal of ancient kings who went so far as to wage wars to control the spice trade routes. The following article headed "Spicy Adventures" is contributed to The Adâ€" vance by Barbara B. Brooks, the noted expert in the culinary art:â€" A spirit of adventure is quite the proper one for cooking with spices. The story of spices is a romantic one.

Thousands, too, are buying new screens to reâ€" place screens that have become worn, rusted and useless. One of the weekly letters from the Home Builders‘ Service Bureau, 177 Jarvis street, Toronto, deals with the matter of screens for homes to avoid the pests, flies, mosquitoes and the other insects that cause so much anâ€" ncyance.

TRAIGHT EIGHTS To summarizeâ€"home owners who select screens of copper or bronze asâ€" When selecting screening be sure to consider the type of insects your screens are required to keep out. In certain localities there are tiny insects which require a particularly fine screen mesh. In other places flies and mosquitoes are the chief offenâ€" ders, and a large mesh will suit. Copâ€" per or bronze screening can be obâ€" tained in a range of meshes to suit every requirement. . The colour of bronze screen is anâ€" other advantage that home owners should not neglect to consider.. The natural gold tint of bronze screen happily described as "antique‘"‘ gives a particularly pleasing appearance to the windows of your home. This golâ€" den colour gradually changes with the years to a soft neutral shade. Screens come in for a lot of hard usage, too. Children at play often fall against screen doors or window screens and adults encumbered with parce‘!s often find it necessary to kick a screen door open. In winter storage heavy objects are often placed on top of screens. Screen cloth of bronze reâ€" tains its tenseness even under this hard usage. It stands to reason, too, that the beating of the rain and the force of summer windstorms will soon cause tc bulge and make unsightly a screen that has already been weakened by the attack of rust. Home owners who have used screens of galvanized wire in the past admit that it is expensive to patch, paint and repair these screens year after year. In many cases the home owners, tiring of this heavy maintenance exâ€" pense, have graduated to the use of bronze screening, which lasts for years without costing a penny for upkeep. of rustproof brass pipe or iron pipe. So it is with screening. It costs jusi as much for labour to make screens of ordinary galvanizetd wire as it does to make screens of rustproof coppet or bronze. The only difference is in the cost of the screening its!if and this is very slight. As a matter of fact, if one thinks of the many extra years of service rendered by copper or bronze screens, the slightly higher cost of this material is soon saved over and over again, for copper and bronze cannot rust. And it is rust more than anything else that shortens the life of galvanized wire screens. Drive it today. If you have always wanted a McLaughlinâ€"Buick, here is the car for you.

Dried salt fish, such as dried cod or dried haddock, is one of the Canadian sea foods which are on the market all the year ‘round and there is this fruâ€" ther advantage in connection with its use that it may be served in a wide variety of ways. Of course, like all other foods, it must ‘be properly cooked if all its natural tastiness is to be brought out; but to ccook it is really simple matter. For instance, creamed dried fish is very easily prepared. All that needs to be done is to take, say, three pounds of fish, freshen it in water for a time to remove some of. the salt, put it on a wire rack in a kettle, cover it with mtlk, and allow it to simmer for about a half an hour or, in other words, until it is tender. Then remove it to a heated platter (placing the skin side down) and pour over it a white sauce before serving. If deâ€" sired, the creamed fish may be served on pieces of toast.
