(International) On The Side By E. V. Durling (Distributed by King Future Syndicate. Inc.) There are two births; the one when light First strikes the new awakened sense; The other, when two souls unite. And we must count our life from thence. When you loved me, and I loved you. Then both of us were born anew. CART WRIGHT. The weather in our section has been chilly, changeable, windy and damp but as yet I have not had a cold. However, I am ready to battle such an ail ment. I have just come upon an old Scotch Highland remedy, for a cold. The recipe is as fol lows: "Put a tablespoonful of orange marmalade into a tum bler one third full of hot water topped up with whisky." A very interesting cold cure, don't you think? I can hardly wait until I get a cold so I can try it. Asides Marilyn Monroe recently ob served: "There is nothing phony about my walk. It's sort of ana' tomical. Just the way I'm made. I've got sort of swivel hips" . . . How many of your male friends kissed your bride after the cere mony? In Cincinnati, a bride was kissed by 98 men, one after another at the wedding recep tion. That is a world's record. Asking Queries from clients. Q. Isn't it a fact that Great Britain is is the only country in Europe where automobile traffic keeps to the left? A. No, sir.

Among the Married What are your wife's theories as to. handling . a husband? Is she possessive? Or jealous? How many, nights out of a week are you permitted- to have? Mrs Humphrey Bogart (Lauren Ba- call) offers the following advice to wives: "Let your husband run wild." Mrs. Bogart's theory is that allowed to run wild a husband will soon tire of it and come home for a rest. This, how ever, is not 'the way Fay Tem pleton looked at it. Said Fay: "Give a man enough rope and he'll skip." Passing By Dr. Maxwell Maltz. Distin guished plastic surgeon. One of the world's most successful prac titioners in his field. He has written a number of highly informative- books on plastic sur gery. Among these are the best sellers titled, "New Faces-New Futures," and "Dr.. Pygmalion."

Dis counting the difficulties of con ducting a career and rearing four youngsters at the same time Carmen said: "Four children are easier than one by the fourth you've had plenty of practice." That Dance Bee Palmer, not Gilda Gray, Ayoid the Last Minute Rush Be Sure Your Christmas Cards and Gifts ArriTe on Time. introduced that dance known as the "shimmy" to Broadway. However, Gilda, whose real maiden name was Maryanna Michalski, did the "shimmy" so cleverly and provocatively and so brilliantly exploited that she achieved fame and fortune from the dance. The "shimmy" was, in court action, legally defined as follows: "A rhythmical shak ing and shivering of parts of the body, synchronizeH and per formed to a personalized, synco pated musical rhythm and ac companied by appropriate songs." Over There What is the most common sur name in Scotland? Is it MacPart land, MacTavish or Campbell? It is none of these. The most common surname in Scotland is Smith with MacDonald second and Brown third. Following the order named are Wilson, Thom son, Robertson and Campbell.

Now playing Helen of Troy in the slightly classical play titled "Tiger at the- Gates." Diane is very versatile. A clever actress she also-is a sultry voiced chan- teuse. One of her best records is that of the sons called "A Fool in His Heart." Bock Stairs: The President's Message By MERRIMAN SMITH United Press White House Reporter ' Gettysburg, Pa. (UP.) Back stairs at the Gettysburg White House: The White House staff was visibly irritated by a published report that President Eisenhow er might deliver his state of the union message to Congress by radio. Such a maneuver would de note inability to appear in per son. And more to the point, it would be next to impossible to hold a radio audience for 45 min utes or an hour in the middle of the day and with' the Presi dent not in view. . Unless there is a radical change in plans, Mr. Eisenhower will send a lengthy, written mes sage to the House and Senate to be relayed to the members by reading clerks.. There is ample precedent for this system. Until relatively mod e'rn times, most presidents used it. ' Press Secretary James C.

Every night recently the farm has had a number of uninvited and unwanted guests Maraud ing red foxes and raccoons. The foxes and raccoons slip in from bordering woods under cover of darkness and try to nab the quail and pheasant that nestle in the hedgerows around the farm. This is inhibiting for the Pres ident. He could go out with his shotgun and have at the foxes and raccoons except for one fact. They hole up during the day time in the nearby woods, and the woods are part of a national park where shooting is forbidden. Fletcher Knebel in the cur rent Look magazine tells an in teresting story about the Presi dent's illness. Knebel says the first medication the President received after his heart attack in Denver was a batch of milk of magnesia administered by Mrs. Eisenhower. She thought the President was suffering from indigestion. The story last week that Mr. Eisenhower called Gov. Averell Harriman of New York a "Park Avenue Truman" doesn't sound typical of the President. He's not a quipster. Best guess locally is that some one in the cabinet or among the Republican congressional leader ship threw this quote at Mr. Ei senhower, and that he laughed and agreed.

How do they do it? They've got the advantage of being more recent models, of course newer body styles and all that. But a large part of the answer lies in the fuel they run around on. Milk's their petrol, and it's pretty hard to beat. Loaded with VCP (vitamins, calcium, protein), milk gives them mileage like you haven't gotten since you were a kid. Funny thing about this fuel works fine in older models, too. Tried it recently? O MILK PRODUCERS LEAGUE o o
