Traveling Around America r —— Photo bu Grace Line PREPARING FOR A BIG CATCH •TTOIS la the first step In catcmng * fish as It's done by the natives of Mexico. The two shown here are spinning the cord which later will be woven, or knit, into sturdy fish nets—some small and fine meshed, not unlike those used in chasing butterflies; others meshed like a tennis net and so Jaige that several men in widely separated boats are required to manipulate them. Making these nets is one feature of the fish Industry in which women and children can give the head of the house a hand. In little river-side or coastal vil lages where fishing is the main business of the day, dnd the catch is the inhabitants' chief means of livelihood, a series of novel sights are presented to voyagers visiting the country on the fortnightly cruises from New York and Cali fornia. Early morning unfolds a shadow picture of men hastening to the waterfront, scrambling into their battered boats and setting out for the fishing grounds. Mid-day, if all has gone well, lights up a scene in which mounds of fish appear along the shore ’glinting in the sun like piles of gleaming armour, and streets are walled with nets stretched on poles like cobwebs hung with dewdrops. And day fades out on interesting close-ups of the villagers repairing old nets or mak ing new, their hands flying like shuttles over the shapeless mass of cords.

'Home Town Thought If you fail to help push your home town ahead, other people fol low your example, and remain in active. Thus the power of the community is weakened. Every time you spend money at home, you sow seeds of prosperity. When you spend money away, those seeds are sown in somebody else s field. When you advertise certain goods, not merely do people come in to see and buy those goods, but they see other things in the store and buy them. The public has a tremendous cap acity for forgetting things. They have a way of forgetting a store that does not advertise. If the people could only remem ber to pay their bills as well as they remember to collect those owed them, business would run along much better. The people who forget the good old home store when they have money to spend, help make their town a forgotten one on the map. The business men are studying public relations, but many of them say their wives’ relations are all they can attend to now. i ! JOHN JOSEPH GAINES, M-P-£T" I BITES AND STINGS In hot weather, when people are much out of doors, with children playing on the grass, wounds of a varying degree of severity are com mon. Spider-bites always produce more or less terror for mothers such insects being considered particularly venomous. I can remember when death from some unknown cause was attributed to the sting cf a venomous spider. All guess-work. In these modern times, it is very easy to obtain good professional attention—and it is always the wise thing to do. A small bottle of "Spirit cf Ammonia” is a good thing to take along on your picnic; it is a good application for the sting of any flying insect, such as bees, wasps, yellow-jackets, &c. The wound should be kept wet with the ammonia solution, until the pain is gone. I never advise around an insect sting with any sort of household instrument; you are as likely to spread infection as you are to cor rect it. We have—or at least I have—revised my ideas of pro cedure in bites and stings of in sects, and I believe I have no regrets with the change. It doesn’t do any harm to bathe an insect wound with soap and water, especally if the site be dusty or on a perspiring surface. And then—if you are fortunate to have the KING OF EMERGENCY RE MEDIES with you—a bottle of Tincture of IODINE. It is a good application in ALL cases, regardless of their origin. Your doctor will tell you the same, as soon as he arrives—if you call him. Do you remember when the "family almanac” sagely advised that we remove be© stings by press ing the wound with a watch-key? The crudity—the horror of it! Watches required keys to wind them in those days. The day of rest has become the day of rush. DR. N. C.

A tiny piece of chocolate? ;| But when it’s spent for electricity, the purchasing power of a penny is mightily increased. In fact, one cent becomes quite a big, robust coin. That’s because electricity is so cheap. Look: After the consumption of 30 K.
