Local Man Marvels At Biz
 Difference In His Feelings
Watertown Resident Feels Like New Person Since Getting Relief From , Indigestion and Nervousness Due
 to Constipation. All Praise Given Vend0l.

q don't believe there is better medicine anywhere for troubles like mine than vendol," said MT. Edward Pichette of 3l Greenwood St.. Wa tertown. recently. 6 popular enploye at the H. and B. SIX co.
 For q number of years 1 had been Bothered with slight constipated condition, but coTitented myself with taking some kind of medicine that gave relief, but lately other troubles developed as a result of constipation, so I knew it was time for me to dc something about it.
 My digestion, particularly, was poor and my food would seem to lay heavy in my stomach, fermenting. and the gas was often so bad would cause sharp pains, shortness of breath, and palpitatlon. Sour, burn ing liquids would rise up in my throat and I'd have hunger pains between meals.
 T was much too nervous for rest ful sleep and would arise of morEl- ings feeling worn out from q night Of broken sleep.

their sport shirts at my amateurish ideas of the way to preserve youth.
 Of course these examples are not representative. They are rath- CT exceptional. But I believe they do point a moral for all elderly people. How long they have been accustomed to golfing, bowling, etc., do not know. The point is that they had the habit or the urge or the desire or the good hard common sense to keep up their wholesome, steadying, balancing practice of daily outdoor physical activity and diversion after they retired from profession or business.
 So many elderly people who are so unfortunate es to be able to re- tire-or so unselflsh as to do so gracefully and make room for younger and probably more com- petent talent = find themselves adrift on the Sargasso of ennui, and that is wretched and danger ous state for any one. To avoid such a dreary old age is one good reason why every man and woman should cultivate his or her favor ite game or at least an avocatioil or hobby long before reaching ma ture age. It is not so hard to be happy if you have a hobby to ride when you pass the peak and begin the long decline. Without hobby you are pretty certain to be mis- erable and to make those around you miserable too.
 For folk who cannot get into the more formal games there is always plenty of oxygen available free of charge. Let them absorb a mile or two of 1t on the roof once, twice or three or four times day. Even if this means walking to and from business or work, it is all to the good. From two to six miles of walking daily is a good exercise ration for any sedentary adult. Walking as a pastime or hobby will be dealt with later. I mention it here by way of exhortation against the tendency of protozoic personalities to lead a passive

She tries to leave the impression that she knows her way around"
 She isn't particularly subtle about trying to take husbands away from their wives.
 She is too obviously pleased by the attention of men.
 She doesn't pay any attention to the women she meets. VACATION IS NO ALIBI
 She is amazingly hilarious-in continual isn't-this-fun mood.
 She doesn't think it's necessary to wear some kind of robe over her brief swim suit when going from her room to the water.
 She talks lot about the mad rush she gets at home, and lies but not well-about the kind of job she has.
 She lets her eagerness for fun, and her attitude of well, after all, this is a vacation" turn her into a Resort Rowdy. She forgets that if she kept little of her workaday dignity, she might be making real friends.

 Sunday is usually picnic day. Take along few of the new picnic gadgets to make lige in the open for more fun than fuss. Garry along a box of kindling. It comes packed in a box, together with paper and matches, all ready to go to work for you.
 There are several good portable charcoal stoves for the camp cook. They have handles and are easy to carry. You can buy charcoal bricks which insure clear fire without fuss.
 There's a hamburg steak cooker that makes it possible for each camper to cook his own steak with out dropping it into the ashes. It's 8 long handled individual covered cooker that clamps shut over the meat and holds 1t secure, juices anl all, while it sizzles over the camp fire.
 If you are not going too many miles from home, you might find quick-frozen meats good for the picnic basket. They defrost as they are carried to the picnic and are ready to cook when you get there.

 She has forgotten that she told the little fellow not to stray. This is exactly what he has been wait I ing for. Off he scoots.
 But another day Jimmy is once again told not to go to Harry's. So now he thinks, Sometimes mother means it and sometimes she doesn't. I guess she doesn't care very much either way"
 He goes whenever he feels like | icnow, and even punishing does not stop him, because he figures that he might catch her in just the right humor when he returns. This, of course, Is matter of discipline. But changeable par ent, given to diverse moods, in time may cause more trouble.

 svery little consideration is giv- en the mother of a beautiful child, ]" says Madge Evans, lovely screen star whose childhood appearance many of us remember. sometimes think she needs beauty advice and help even more than the mother of a plain child.
 'If your child is lovely, guard her beauty" the screen star advises. First. there is the matter of keep ing her hair soft and shiny by nightly brushing and weekly wash- ing.
 Proper cutting against the grain of the hair and, after each shampoo setting each strand in a little ring let-very much like the hairdresser sets yours-will help to preserve natural waves. Always brush your shild's hair up and away from her scalp-not down and do take the trouble to push waves back in place at least once 8 day."
 When Madge Evans was very young, her mother taught her to wash her face with a complexion brush and a mild baby soap, then to rinse it thoroughly several times. In the winter months, her mother always put a softening To- ton on her cheeks immediately after the nightly cleansing. OWN SKIN

by contributes toward delinquency in youth and premature deteriora- ton in maturity. Individuals with out other interest than their job, business or profession are gener- ally disposed to excesses that de- stroy vite and youth, especially smoking and drinking. It is now widely established in the smart Aleck or sophomoronic mentality of America that cigarettes and cocktails are more or less excus- able for the precocious pampered young folk. Under such implied approval or the timidity or ire sponsibility of parents and teach CTS who fail to inveigh against these ravagers of youth, the young smart Aleck seriously believes to- bacco and alcohol sufficient to be- numb consciousness of the impulse to action, the desire to do things. the will to play or work, is. harm less if not beneficial.
 Milk
 Would you advise heating, raw milk before drinking, or should one use only pasteurized milk for all needs? (B. W.)
 Answer-I prefer Grade A raw milk from tubercllin tested herd. Ordinary market milk is safe if pasteurized-that is, heated to 145 degrees F. for 20 to 30 minutes and then allowed to cool again-or if boiled for one minute.

 Watercress Sandwiches
 Watercress sandwiches always taste refreshing at picnics with broiled or friend meats. Make them just before you leave the house. Use thin slices of bread, evenly but tered, and sprigs of watercress, chilled and delicately seasoned with salt and pepper. Fold between slices of bread, but do not press down too hard. Do not use mayonnaise if you want the watercress to keep fresh.

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

Before leaving Greenland Mac
MILAN and his party visited Ger
tain ruins which were left by the
olden Norsemen some distance in
land, alongside ford. Norsemen
had settled at this spot more than
900 years before.
The voyage from Greenland to
Labrador was rough and stormy,
and from Labrador to Maine the
weather was even worse. While of
the coast of Nova Scotia there came
a gale which seemed at moments
to put the Bowdoin in danger of
being wrecked. Here are notes which
Kennett Rawson made about it:
While we were near Halifax the
wind hauled to the southwest and
swept upon us. In short time the
sea was a series of steep ridges
which struck from every side.
The mainsail had been taken in
before dark, but the foresail and
Jumbo were still up. The command
er dispatched Melkon and Dick Sal
mon to take in the jumbo while he
eripped the wheel.
The force of the wind was so
great that the vessel was pushed
backward and began shipping water
over the stern. A towering sea
crashed over the bow. Leaving the
wheel to me the commander dashed
forward to help the two men there.

To an expert seven diamonds on
this hand would be a 'lead-pipe
cinch," even granting that the club
suit does not break. He would win
the opening lead of the spade king
with dummyS ace and discard
heart from his hand. After draw
ing trumps he would play three
rounds of clubs, which would dis
close the fact that East now held
the top club. Next he would play
his three remaining trumps. On the
last trump lead West, in order to
retain the spade queen, would have
to discard down to two hearts,
whereupon the jack of spades, hav-
ing served its purpose, would be
discarded from dummy. And now
East in turn would be squeezed, for
in order to keep the club jack he
also would have to yield a heart.
Dummy's ace-king-10 of hearts
would then win the last three tricks
The South player who actually
played this hand evidently did not
know the principles of the squeeze
play. In playing out all his trumps
he discarded both the heart 10 and
two spades from dummy. Then
when East turned up with a club
trick declarer went down one with
out ever knowing that his contract
should have been an absolute lay
