The something-forâ€"breakfast pro- gramme began with the full co-operaâ€" tion of his wife. She refrained from any I-told-you-so advice and furthered the plan with attractive. varied menus day after day. A ready-to-eat cereal was the breakfast mainstay. She kept several kinds on hand and served them with different kinds of fruit to give plenty of variety. Cereal and fruit with rich whole milk and coffee made a substantial breakfast. Incidentally. it was an easy one to prepare. Eggs. ham, bacon. other meats. fish. waffles. hot cakes. muffins or toast were some Iof the surprise items which appeared lone at a time. but at regular intervals.i “Perhaps it is the surprise element! that does it. but." says our businessl man, “I find myself wide awake whenl it is time to get up .wondering what we are having for breakfast. Strangelyl enough. I don‘t get up much earlier] now than before. but have ample time: for a leisurely breakfast. That seems! to set the pace for the entire day. I] am ready to work when I get to thel office and my mind stays on the job! until someone suggests knocking off for a bite of lunch." , Many of us have learned the wisdoml of starting the day with an energy-I giving breakfast.

Father Paradis died in Montreal just ten years ago. He. had l been one of the early prospectors of the 5 Porcupine. particularly the Night Hawk l Lake area. “He is usually credited with faltering the level of Frederickhouse lake by blowing out a dam there." said The Advance. ‘but those acquainted with the country at the time relieve him from this responsibility. There was no dam to blow out. the old-timers say. the waters themselves wearing away a channel from the lake and anything that. Rev. Fr. Paradis did in the course of his prospecting and de- velopment work on properties in the district simply helped on the change of the channel and did not cause it."‘ He was a native of France and was 78‘ years of age when he died. During his‘ days he had lived at T emagami. where he had built a church. mainly with his own hands. A month previous to his death he was taken ill and went to the Oratory of St. Joseph, a shrine main~ tained by Brother Andrew. There he passed away on Monday, May 10th. P.

But gas gangrene set in. amputation was necessary and the woman died oi shock. loss otblood and exhaustion." It was thought at the time if she had not risked the train journey she might have lived. An inquest was begun here but had to be adjourned since the hus- band was in hospital and two important witnesses were out of town. Evidence given by a young woman who was in the car involved was to the effect thatt neither the brakes nor steering wheel] appeared to be working well.
