Of German music, TO attend a dinner

EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

The Bishop of London has recently
contributed to the literature of ways
to lower the divorce rate, the sugges-
ton that every husband and wife
should take a two weeks vacation
/; separately each year.
It seems to me there is much in IA
lvor of the bishops idea and also
something against it.
One of the most important elements
of a good vacation is complete change.
1t isn't merely a cessation of work
that is needed to rest anyone. It's
also the differentneSS of thingS-dff-
ferent air to breathe, different wall
paper to look at, different food to eat,
1 different things to do, and different
personalities to rub up against.
The most different vacation-other
| things being equals always the
| most renewing.
Wherefore it is a firmly held theory
of mine that it is not the best thing
for two very intimate friends or for
two members of a family-two sisters
or mother and daughter, or a father
and son or two brothers, to go off on
a vacation together.
think one does not get SO much
invigorating or "renewedness' out of
the rest time that way as when one
goes with some person one likes but
does not see very often any other
time in the year.
And for the same reason it seems
to me that it is good idea for a
husband and wife to take vacation
from each other as well as from their
work each year.
And then, too, I think it is SPLEEN
did thing to get far enough away
from your blessings occasionally to
get a proper perspective upon them.
There never was a blessing, how
ever great, which one could not get
dangerously accustomed to. and ia
miliar with the familiarity that breeds
if not contempt, at least lack of APP
probation, unless one occasionally had
a chance to miss it-and a good hus-
band or wife is not an exception to
that rule.
know one couple who have follow
ed the bishops plan long before 1t
was his plan, and they both declare
while they enjoy the vacation at the
time they also enjoy coming home to
each other after it is over.
The prime objection to the bishops
theory, nice young husband with
whom I was discussing the plan, con-
tributed.
But neither my wife or I enjoy
anything so much unless we can do
it together he pointed out.
To the average man whose two
weeks vacation is almost the only
chance he gets to enjoy himself with
his wife that is quite an objection.
Doubtless when the bishop sug-
gested that married couples should
have a two weeks vacation from each
other he had a vision of them also
having month or two together.
But since the average married cou-
pie doesn't move in the bishops set
and therefore doesn't find that ex-
good compromise to split the two
weeks and take half vacationing from
each other and the other half with
each other?

Could Anyone Kiss Face Like This.
1t is easy now for any woman to have
a beautiful face, handsome arms and
bust, free from all dishguring super
fiuous hair. 1t doesn't matter whether
it's only a few hairs or a regular mus
tache or gOatee, or how light or heavy
the growth is, it can be destroyed in a
few minutes with the marvellous new
remedy, Elec-tro-la.
This wonderful hair destroyer can be
used on the face, neck, arms, bust. or
any portion of the body with perfect
safety 1t is not like other remedies.
1t positively will not irritate, burn or
scar the most tender skin, no matter
how long it is left on, and it never fails
to remove even the most obstinate
growth almost istantly. If you want
a permanent, lasting cure. not merely
temporary relief, Elec-tro-1a is what
you should use, for it goes TO the hair
roots and kills them.
We have decided to send trial
bottle of Elec-tro-la to any man or
woman who writes for it, to prove
that it does all we say, upon receipt of
a two-cent stamp to help cover cost of
mailing. The regular sized bottle is
81. 90 and your money will be refunded
if Elec-tro-la does not do all we claim.
We don't ask you to take our word for
what Elec-tro-la will do. Just fill out
trial coupon below and mail with a
two-cent. stamp today.

the railway company was engaged in
renewing the life of franchise which
the public service commission recently

company believes that it will not be
necessary to operate cars over the
route for at least a year.
