' Countless thousands of people who have taken "Aspirin" year in and out without ill effect, have proved that the medical findings about its safety were correct, : Remember this: "Aspirin" is rated among the faslest methods yet discovered for the relief of headaches and all common pains . . . and safe , for the average person to take regularly.

"The assumption that Barron did not kill himself," He rose to his feet and stretched his arms as if he were tiréd. "Sorry you have mislaid your print, but it wasn't of much use after all, you know," he remarked grinning, "You see, I never believed that print." He was oy the point of going out when Foster gave an exclamation. "Oh, never mind alwut the print. It may turn up. But. I would like propose something, I have told you all I kndw, and as a further proof that you are not bored--I would take it as a mark of your interest also-- perhaps you would spare the time to walk down to the woods. I could there show you exactly the spot where this thing appeared last night. We may find something, too." "What do you think we may find?" "Footmarks, perhaps." 5 "Good old detective! No, I don't think I can spare the time to waste on such an errand." "But you are open to be convinced of my theories, aren't you?" "No you think you can me?" : "How can Tif you will not give me the opportunity? = Prove your in- terest in this business,. if not for vour own sake, then for-the sake of the girl you expect to marry!" convince It was a thrust that turned the scale. "All right, I'll come. .Bless you, it's getting more dramatic." "It always does before a crisis, you know," said Foster, as he made a gesture towards the door. : The first' thing that the doctor did when they went downstairs was to hurry round to the back and unleash the big Alsatian. He brought him round on the lead, baying like fury and leaping with the joy. in hope of a run. "What the devil have you brought that animal for?" demanded Hughes, glaring. : "We may trail the know," smiled Ioster. They walked round to the front of the house. Foster stopped suddenly and handed the leash to Hughes. "I've just forgotten something. Pray let me run up to my room. I won't keep you a minute." - He gave Hughes no chance of re- plying, but dashed into the front entrance, and ran along to the house- and more melo- ghost, you keeper's room. Luckily she was in, working at her accounts. "Oh, excuse me, but have you a master key to the bedrooms?" asked the doctor. "Miss Barron told me you had, and I need it just for a minute."

Nagging 18 a menace to the peace of the home, No two persons can live happily together when they are con. tinually nagging at each other, The following extract, which I quote from |a letter received from a young hus. band, shows quite clearly the danger to which nagging exposes the home, "«My wife and I began married life eight years ago very happily and deeply in love with each other, but now I think we are coming to the parting of the ways. She has devel. oped the nagging habit, and although I try to restrain myself, the sharp. ness of her tongue is such that I can hardly forbear retort, It is a con. stant bickering. morning and night. We have three lovely little children 'and for their sakes I would not like to break up the home. But this thing is getting on my nerves," : 4 Whatever you do, don't break up your home. If your wife'and you were really "deeply in love with other" when you started, then there is surely hope. Love, such as you claim existed between you, is not easily extinguished. It takes longer than eight years to kili such love as a rule and, in your case, it probably sHll exists. Assuming that to be so, if you break up your home you will be 'most unhappy. Besides, the .pre- gence of three young children.might create serious complications, But why let such a small thing as nagging break up your home? There must be some cause for your wife's irritability. I hardly think from your letter that is anything more serious than {irritabjlity, although that is bad enough and, if continued, may have very serious consequences. Have you tried to find out the cause? I know just how difficult the "cir- cumstances must be for you. How those sharp words spoken in an ir- ritable moment, can sting and. cut! But think how your retort must ag- gravate your already high strung and irritable wife. I believe it is still true that "A soft answer turneth away wrath", Human kindness and symp@- thy have a wonderfully séothing ef- fect on irritable souls. I.would like you to try and see your wife's position as well as your own. Think! She is tied indoors all day with three little children. Sup- posing after a trying day and probab- ly a restless night she is a bit ir- ritable in the morning, and you leave her with a sharp retort ringing in her ears, what happems? Just this, she spends the day brooding over it and, by night time, it has become a mental festering sore. Even a pin prick, it dwelt upon for long enough, will become a big thing mentally. On the other hand, you go out to business. You mingle with other people. You have variety, and 'you can forget what happened in the morning. It is not go easy as all that for your wife. She has the home and the children all day--quite a trying task. 3 There fis probably nothing more wrong than that your wife's nerves are on edge. Try to be sympathetic. Treat ligr as kindly as you can. Over- come the temptation to retort sharp- ly. Get her some help with her housework, or help her a little 'bit more yourself. Get soméone to look after the children occasionally and take her out for an evening. Try to renew the palship of courting days. Give her a change now and again from the dfudgery of nursing and housework, and 1 am sure the mat- ter will right itself in a surprisingly short time. 4 : ---- NOTE: The writer of this column Is a trained psychologist and an au. thor of several works, He Is willing to deal with your problems and give you the benefit of his wide experi. ence.

Make it: sometimes with meat stock and sometimes with milk. Always put lots of vegetables in fit. The accompaniment for the soup adds much to the interest of the meal, Croutons, chips and toast sticks are easy to make and use stale bread to splendid advantage, % . To make bread chips, cut stale rolls in very thin slices, crosswise of the roll. The slices shouldn't be more than an eighth' of an 'inch thick. Spread on a shallow pan and put in a slow oven until crisp and brown throughout. : FINE GRAINED BREAD Cut bread as thin as a wafer and toast until crisp and brown in a slow oven. This kind of wafer -- like soup. ' To make croutons some cooks dip the neat cubes of bread in melted butter and then = brown them in a moderate oven. Others drop the cubcs into deep hot fat and fry them a golden brown in sixty seconds. - ; A fine, close grained - texture in bread is important for croutons and it must be stale but not too dry. Cut in slices about one-half inch thick, remove crusts and cut each slice into cubes with a very sharp knife, The 'sharp. knife means much, too, be- cause the cubes must~bé smooth and clean cut; Dry them until they are crisp through. After. this they may be toasted or friehd in deep fat.: Croutons go right into the soup and form a part of it. Consequently they are eaten with soup from the soup plaie and never with the fingers. SERVING CROUTONS ... There are two attractive ways to serve .croutons. One way is to pass them to each person for him to &ielp himself, or, it the soup is served by the mah:of-the-house at the table hie drops one or two teaspoons of crou- tons into each plate.as he serves it. Toast sticks are what their name implies, sticks of toast. The bread is cut in strips about % inch thick and 8; inch wide and 3 inches long.

E, J. Messenden, docks and ma- rine manager of the English South- on, Railway Company, said recently that his company in the past six years has spent $40,000,000 on" im- provements and new docking facili- ties in the port of Southampton, and that the piers and drydock recently completed were designed with a view to accommodating giant liners. The diydock, which is to handle the Queen Mary, can easily accom- nmodate a 100,000-ton ship, nearly a quarter again as large as the new Cunarder.

She's here on a fortnight's holiday from Hollywood, and if what she says about new screen types is true dizzy -| debs with a studio yen had better - beat it for the Middle West and gol some accent, atmosphere and culcha. . Here's Phyllis' characterization of the new movie type: °° Ea "She might be from Ohio. She be either blond or brunette, about b feet 4 inches tall, and she can't be too thin. You can put'it on, but you can't take it off. Plumpish girls just have no chance, They are a problem for camera angles, lights, costumes and makeup, "The Harlow hey-hey girl is out, She must be the daughter of whole- some parents who are substantial citizens of the community in which they live. She must be, in short, an American norm, bridging the gap between the cocktail slicker kid and the Kansas corn-fed. . "She is about 19-or 20, and. the . old gag, 'You don't have to be dumb to be an actor, but it helps,' still applies. I mean that the girl who: has had no experience is gst as good a potential bet. Stage tech< nique often has to be unlearned in the films. : "She must not be ambitious. 1 mean that if she has her heart set on a gold-mounted car with a chalf- feur, a Beverley Hills bungalow and: a Palm Springs hideaway, her name in lights and footprints in Grau- man's cement, like as not she'll be a * flop. She must have a soul-stirring desire to act." No kidding, that's what she said. She also said that Hollywood |'was a moral community where every- -{ body worked like: the very devil.

"It will excite the younger gen- eration to the theatre and go much deeper" into social life than the lit- tle theatre group movement. : ~ "Heretofore that's always been on the right side of the railroad tracks, arty kids taking -up the drahma. This WPA activity can get into. the public schools and enlarge the hori- zons of the lads whose ambitions. might only be to becgme engineers the secretary-boss-marriage idea. "It can do wonders in discovering new talent and. ought to be a swell feeder for stage 'and screen. On the other hand, if it tends most- ly to provide food and clothing for hams and has-beens, its cultural ef- fect will be lessened." ol Phyllis has had her job (officially she's a studio coach) two years, go- ing West after an apprenticeship on Broadway.- Some of the new kids whom she helped break in are Marsha Hunt, Ada Lupino, Gail Pat- rick, Randy Scott and Fred McMur- ray. wv : Brighter C olors : ------ Gold Draperies Keep Fresh Look > Longer Than Ecru ' : Ones _ Light, bright colors used in de- corating: show the soil less than those chosen "because they do not discovering. = Gold colored draperies keep their fresh look longer than do ecru ones, it was observed in a settlement house in a large city.
