Medlicott, that gentle and .j-miling lady, was even more disap- pointing than the two men. .She, at least, shoultl know that it was im- possible for Eve to send any cable to Dan on hor own account. And yet she chatted av.-ay, in her drav.-ling listlos.s fasliinii, about the mine and I what Dan misht find there; and I never hinted at Dan's frustrated love j affair. She seemed to imply that Eve had made some move, as a mat- ' tor of course. Eve had never thought ' that a nice woman could be so mer-j cenary and so heartless. I As if the mine had ever been in doubt, or ever had really mattered, ! compared to Dan's happiness. And j yet tho mine occupied most of Eve's j wakins hours. As soon as the news- j papers had settled that the passenger ; to -Australia was not a swindler es- caping from ju.stice, nor even that absurd trainer of pnyips, Westei'jy, the reporters haunted Eve's room. They wanted more and more details about Mr. Daniel Prescott, the ad- venturous }^o!d-seeker, whom some dignified by the term explorer. Eve had the extpiisite annoyance of seeing chunks of her despised pamphlet lifted; and presented, with modifications and excisions, as news about the man who was dashing to -Australia. The opportunity occurred for Jlodlicott to present to tlio pr' lie his version of the dotation ot the Danjrong Gold Mine; and this Eve had to lick into .shajjo for the press- men. ' "I have been called a .sharepu.sher in cold print," Medlicott was made to .say. "And there is an implica- tion that I have been trying to un- load worthless stock upon my clients. I have only to say that I am not ashamed of the up-to-date methods which I have employed in my vo â-  turo as the Dangong Mine. In the attemjit to obtain capital for so pro- mising near future I hope to show, so far as I from over-estimating the po:T-ibilities of the mine, that I fail- ed to do any justice to its gold- yielding capability. "In any case, the attacks upon me have failed signally of their apjiar- ent purpose, for I, was fortunate enough to obtain the whole sum re- 'juirod, in one place. This will < plain, to those applicants for r^-tres who.^e deposit I have been forced to return, why the available share is- .sue was so promptly allotted. There is not a .share in Dangong to he ob- tained, at the nief^ont time either for i love or money. "As to the laUinuiies published concerning my friend and associate, Mr. Daniel Prescott, I prefer to leave tho.se unanswered until Mr. i Prescott, who is an individual of .some energy and force of character, can return to London to defend him- self. But I must refer to one as- â-  pect of tho (dso, which .^eenis to mc to reflect unfavourably upon the 1 traditions of British ho.'pitality and â-  British humour. j "At my request Mr. Prescott I accepted the invitation of an ac- 1 quaintance â€" 1 might at one time ' have said friend and spent a week- end under his roof. With trie in- i tention of amusing and entertaining i his hosts, Mr. Prescott indulged in ' sonic of those whimsical extrava- gance,'; which are described as tra- vellers tales. "I could have warned him that he was talking to tho one person in ten thousand literal sense; but I had not imagined that dull enough to take his yarns in their the same peraon would be so unmindful of his obliga- tions as host as to retail these stories to a newspaper reporter. j "Mr. Prescotts flight to Australia is, of course, his answer to the innu- I endoes and calumnies that were ' directed against him and against my- ' self. On his arrival there he will j proceed to the mine without loss of i time, and the work of development j under his remarkable impulse will be I pushed forward as rapidly as the cir- cumstances permit." , "You certainly nuinglea poor Burden, Eve," Medlicott remarked, ' after reading this elTusioii. Well let it go; he a.sked for it, I suppose." [CHILD'S CROCHETED DRESS PATTERN 1159 Daisies to pluck â€" to hold â€" to wear!

Lappin ♦♦♦•••••♦••••••I ••••••••••â- â€¢â€¢â€¢â€¢â€¢>»i»«»>tt>t«» Engaged, But Afraid to Mtury The problems ot Every Day Living are varied aud innumerable. Some tolks have big problems which they treat lightly, others are apt to mag- nify trifles, but wo all have our prob- lems. This week I am going to try and answer a big problem. It has come to me from a young lady whom I think is very sensible indeed. She writes to me In part; "I have been keeping company with for over three years. Wo are Eve tiiade no answer. Everybody seemed to find fault with her, no matter what she did. Why should Mr. Burden be spared, after treating Dan in that shameful fashion'.' When she left the office Eve was no happier. With nothing better to do, she became the prey of the most dire forebodings and terrors. She saw the aeroplane whirled helplessly into the vortex of some tropical ty- phoon, and nose diving hideously into the Timor Sea. She imagined the two adventurers forced to land in some dense jungle; and it was al- ways Dan who had his leg broken, and had to be left with the wrecked machine, while the pilot plunged in- to trackless jungle in search of help. But these visions of disaster were purely imaginary.' The plane swept south on the wings of the wind amid a crescendo of puWicity and praise. Port Darwin was reached a full day ahead of previous records for the flight; and Amherst crept from the machine and tottered to bed. But Dan hardly stayed for the first greeting of a kindled Australia. A hasty meal and a bath, and he was in the- waiting plane and off again, bound for Sydney, via Brisbane. News of the reception prepared for him in Sydney was cabled to the British newspapers. Amherst, the man who had contiuered time and space, was asleep and forgotten at Port Darwin. But Australia rose to Dan Prescott, the passenger who had proved in his own adventurous person that three weeks could be lopped olf the journey from the Motlierland to the Doininiun. There was already a project for a regular air mail, and a regular service fur jiassenger ma- chines. .-Vnd, after the unthinking fashion of the hour, Dan Prescott got the credit of it all. (To Be Continued) Rural Ontario is Called Sound Rural Ontario, "with all its diffi- culties and tho criticism levelled a- gainst it. is sound municipally and financially,"' H. L. Cummings. De- puty Ministy of Municipal Affairs, declared before the annual conven- tion of the Ontario .Association of Rural Municipalities. "I have no fear of Uurtil Ontario becoming a problem," he added. Ac- tual debenture debt of tho rural ar- eas, he declared, was .?8, 100.000 and was being paid off faster than new debt could accumulate. Mr. Cummings called, however, for better systems of auditing and accounting in the rural districts. Be- cause of inaderiuato methods, he de- clared, "it has been possible to get away with murder." He criticized the failure of many auditors to check tax rolls. Time !

Issue No. 14 â€" '36 Sbnlfl Be Told How to Learn (Ottawa Journal) It is fns.iionablo to scoff at speech- es, this though most of us are glut- tons for tliem. There might be less scoffing, or pretence at it, if all speeches were as fine as that de- livered recently to tho Ottawa Can- adian Club by Dr. Hamilton Fyfe. Dealing with education, Dr. Fyfe didn't tell how many millions we were spending on it, or how many fine school buildings wo have, or how many thousands of pupils. Instead, ho told as something of what education should be. It should be, he said, this: that students should be taught "how to learn." "What you want is not a num- ber of facts y(JU will forget; but the capacity for finding out things for yourself. You have to learn how to learn." Nothing truer ;.bout education has ever been said. And with this truth ! there could be instilled into young ' people tlio further truth that educ- ation IS a continuing process, that it is not something whicil ceases with graduation from some university, but must bo persevered with and de- veloped throughout tho whole of life, then as a people we would be better educated. John Ricliard Green, the great his- torian, ilicd when a comparatively young man. He had had a university education, and was a great scholar, but he never lost his curiosity about life and its meaning, and over his grave they carved this epitaph: "He died learning." If more of us could deserve a similar epitaph, this world would bo infinitely better. il (St. Tliomas Tiines-Journall i Poslofi'i.'o pen nibs huvo long been a jol;e, particularly as tc their poor quality, but the British post office ap- ' pears to 'la.o solved the problem both as to durability, aud "unstealibility," i A new nil) first tried out in 1929, has been found most successful, and the govcnimi.nl has just ordered 1,500,000 \ of them for tlirs offices llirougbi/ut tho I UnitiHl King(h)ni.

Ha has often spoken of marriage before, but I ahvavo hesitated. At last I've promised to many him and now I think I have made a mistake. Frank- ly, I am afraid of marriage because, for the past five years, my mother has been in a mental hospital and 1 sometimes have tho thought that hor trouble may bo hereditary. Of course ho knows all about it and he says it docs not matter, but that fact does not seem lo ease my mind." My correspondent is to bo admired for her wi.^-e forethought. Shu cer- tainly reveals a highly devploped type of social consciousness. Cut it may be she is worryiug herself unduly. -Vfter all, not every inmate of a men- tal hospital is suffering from hered- itary insanity. There are a groat many cases in which tho patient has become mentally unhinged simply as tho in- evitable consequence of undue strain and worry. Tho past quarter of a century has been a very trying one, and many folks have simply been un- able to bear the strain. It is true that there are many in our mental instit- utions who might not havo been there if the proper help had been secured in time. But that does not alter the fact that they are there, and that Sleeping on tie Ice Nova Scotia has at present a vis- itor from Northumberland. England, who has quietly come among us lo prosecute his studies of tho birds. Mr. Noble Rollin created no littie interest by sleeping out one night on the ice in zero weather with noihing about him tiian his overcoat and one blanket. Had it been an Arctic sleep- ping bag. we would think nothiiig of it, but if it was but an ordinary blanket it is something from which wo would like to be excused. But there i.s this to be said, that the visitor from England, :nurcd to outdoor life, can very likely stand far more co!d with less discomfort than any re.sident. It is a common thing for tiie English visitor coming to this province to wear no overcoat for tho first Winter and sometimes for two or throe Winters, and there is <i perfectly good reason behind it â€"it rests in tho action of the Eng- lish clini,"!

This young lady should fiud out for herself Just exactly tho nature of her mother's trouble. She should liavo no difficUity in doing ihis. A talk with the family physician would sure- ly bring her an interview with the superintendent doctor of the iusiitu- lion in which her mother Is asufined. These doctors could tell from the case history whether her mother's afflic- lion is hereditary or not. If it is not hereditary, then her mind will be at ease. I think, were I in this youug lady's position, I would pursue this lino of action right away. Why go on worry- ing and fretting before you are sure there is auyihing to worry about? The chances are there is nothing to worry about. Even if you should dis- cover that the trouble is horeditary, well, even then, that does not mean that you are going to go iho same way. I think it is now generally ac- cepted that we only inherit tenden- cies, and there are many cases on record which prove that those inher- ited tendencies can be overcome. It you take care of yourself aud look af- ler .vour health, if you keep a cheery, optimistic outlook and evoiil worry and fear, I am quite sure that every- thing will be all right. Besides, tho young man to whom you are engaged knows all about it. You aro not hiding anything from hi(« so, if you discover that tho iioublo is hereditary and there are siyns that you might become afflicted, you could agree to marry, and if both of you ar« very fond of cliihlren you might adopt a child.
