SLIM FIGURES FOR TURK GIRLS, DECREE Constantinople, April 5.--Fem- inine beauty comes no longer by the pound in Turkey. New fash- fons of going unveiled have creat- ed a preference for women with comely features. Still newer fash- fons of feminine exercise have cre- ated a more pronounced taste for women of slender figures. So far has this change in the tastes of a population gone that a movement is on foot to enter a Tur- kish beauty in the next contest in United States. She will be selected "as much for her figure as her face." And, as was noted, figures Jhave changed. The distinctive feature of a Tur- kish beauty is her eyes, huge and ox-like and shadowed by pheuom- enally long lashes. They are ren- derd slightly melancholy by peu- cillings of kohl. "Miss Turkey' will be selected next spring and sent to America. She likely wil not appear in native costume, but in garments better adapted to displaying her new found charms.

Pinkham's Vegetable Gompound SPRING CLEANING These suggestions for saving time and money may prove useful to many housewives during Spring cleaning and it is our earnest de- sire that they will benefit many. There is always the danger of spotting or soiling the walls while the wood work is being cleaned, To avoid this place a piece of card- board along the edge of the door frame or window casing that is to be cleaned, moving it along as you work. You not only prevent the soiling of the walls, but the de- vice enables you to work faster and more thoroughly. The loose tin bottom from a square Christmas cake tin is also useful for this purpose. Ld - * IF YOU HAVE NO VACUUM CLEANER Use an automobile tire pump to blow the dust out of the radiators. This will get the dust from crevic- es where a brush will not reauh.

AN ATTIC LIST At cleaning time, tack on the at- tic wall a large plece of stiff plain paper on which to make a memor- andum when storing away articles in the different trunks and boxes.

LJ * LJ CLEANING A CEILING In some cases a ceiling may be cleaned by wiping gently with a cloth which has been dipped In warm water and soda and wrung well out. The result may, however, be patchy, and care needs to be exercised. Thes afest way is to dust the whole ceiling with a clean rag tied on to a brush or feather duster, Some marks can be re- moved by rubbing with a plece of stale bread, but if the color of the ceiling is really bad it should be distempered, papered or whitewash- ed afresh. WILKINS PLEASED WITH SUBMARINE Explorer Conducts Inspec- tion of Craft He Will Use in Arctic Ne York, April 6.--Sir Hubert Wilkins has returned to the Wal- dorf Astoria after his inspecuon at the Lake Shipyards at Bridgeport, Conn., of the submarine in which he proposes to traverse the Arctic Sea, satisfied that the craft, built by Simon Lake, submarine builder and inventor and his associates, would be avilable for the proposed expedition. "They certainly bullt a mach- ine," he said. "I think it will be suitable. The motors and batter- ies in it have been used, and as a precaution we will install new mo- tors and batteries before taking it into the Arctic. I feel it will serve the purpose." Sir Hubert said he was trylag to determine whether it will be pos- sible to start the expedition nis year and if so it will. be advisable. One of his principal considerations, he said, is the matter of obtain- ing financial backing for the pro- ject. WHAT MEMORIES EASTER HAS FOR MANY What memories there are for these men of twelve years ago! Memories of Sillebeke, the Somme, Regina Trench, Vimy Ridge, Lens, Hill 70. Paschendaele, Villera, Bretomneuz, Cambrai, Valencien- nes, Mons. Memories of trenches and rest billets, memories of near- ly 1,000 comrades dead and of 4,800 men altogether who served in the ranks. In March, 1917, they were Imm the line at Newville St. Vaust a few days before the attack at Vimy Ridge. A few months later came Hill 70 and then the bloody glory of mud- dy Paschendaele. To the bStn was given the task of taking Belle- vine Spur, the key to the enemy position, There the Germans were heavily entrenched, but the battalion swept up the spur in frontal attack. Machine guns spray- ed their ranks, men fell in heaps, till halt of them lay on the bleed- ing slope. But those who carried on swept up and gained the crest --and held t till help came. Some willre member this with proud and poignant memody. Then came that terrible March of '18, un® the days succeeding when the 5th army broke, and the 58th and the other Canadians in the trenches at Vimy Ridge saw the line bending away on both sides of them, and the hor- ror of the flares at night, north and south of them, creeping ever and ever more to the rear. Those days of tragedy while the world watched with bated breath and wondered if God slept. * * % Vimy of 1017 What shall we say of Vimy Hill? How shall we tell its story? Words that burn and hearts that thrill Need to flame its glory; Muscles taut and breathing pent, At the dawn's first lighting, Sprang they up and over went To win or die a-fighting. Leaden hail at every stride Courage higher leaping; munity Every tiny leaf is a storehouse of flavour "fresh from the gardens' A glorious death for those who died, Their country's honor keeping. Faster and faster on they go Amid a roar of cheering. Hurling themselves upon the toe, Their way with bayonets clear- ing. The foremost trench won, And then the summit facing, They're up and on again and gone To greater triumph racing, Now fair before the vaunted hill, Belched horrors to dismay them, But nought could be impregnable Nor death nor hell could stay them, is quickly With blood on fire, a living flame, No foe could stand before them, As up the hill they charging came With Britian's banner e'r them, A glorious fight, Canadians' day-- Red bayonet play, quick cleared the way And Vimy, God, they've got it, -- (Contributed). Racks to carry baggage on the ends of street cars have been 'in- vented in Switzerland.
