heard the story of a queer situation
the other day. A man walked into
a large radio station and said they
would have to turn it down because
he heard it all the time. An official
asked him what they were playing
at the moment and he told them.
Then they said, "Well, he looked it
up; he knew what we were playing"
So they telephoned the studio to
broadcast an announcement, I'VE

did they say just then?" the man
was asked. "'We are making an ex-
periment,'" he replied.
So they investigated him and
found t.. L. VS. a carborundum

metal in his teeth gave him a sort of

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

R. P: "What is the cause of an
eye sly and what is good remedy
for same"
Answer-Sties are caused by in
lection, by pus germ of the hair
follicles of the eyelashes. They fire.
quently affect a whole row of hairs
so that the condition lasts for some
time. The best way to treat sly
which has already formed is by cold
applications, as of ice. For preven-
ton, painting the eyelid with weak
10 per cent solution of alcohol by a
camel's hair brush is probably the
best.
Reader: "Is smoking harmful to
a person with chest that is suscep-
tible to bronchitis?"
Answer - Smoking unquestion-
ably irritates the throat and thus
tends to create coughing, which is
itself irritating to bronchitis.

We have not replaced our nervous
systems but they have to make so
many more responses than in the
days of our fathers and grand
fathers. There are so many more
communications If anyone wanted
to tell my grandfather something
important, he would have to put on
his hat and coat and walk about a
mile before he did it. Or else he
would have to write a letter. Not
many people would take the trouble
to do that, so grandfather did not
get many communications.
Different Now
But in this generation you can
telephone him, telegraph him, multi
graph letters for him and send him
q dozen an hour, publish morning,
noon, evening and weekly papers
for him and tune radio announce
ments in his ear ali evening.
He has to make decisions about
not only whether to get new pair
Of pants and how to pay his note at
the bank, purely personal affairs,
but also about the Wages and
Hours Bill, relief for flood suffer-
ers, what to do about China, Spain,
Hitler and Mexico.
1t was pointed out by man of
large affairs that in other times,
ten years ago, when he returned
from q vacation there were perhaps
three things on his desk that de-
manded attention. Now there is a
pile of radiograms and messages to
which it is physically impossible to
give attention.
Public men are supposed to be
subjected to more strain of this kind
than the little fellow. Constantly
pointed out are the signs of wear
and tear on the appearance of
presidents during Office. They say
there hasn't been a premier of
England during this century who

So said one Of our great educa-
