£250 Premium

If some one offered £6,000 for a

cold cure and wished to insure against the risk of having to pay the prize, Lloyd's underwriters would want:---

A premium of £100 for six months, or £260 for a year. If a time limit of five years was given in which to find a cure the policy would have to be renewed annually, involving the payment of premiums amounting to £1,250.........or

a quarter of the prize money.

Doctors estimate that the com mon cold costs Britain at a mini- raum, £50,000,000 a year in lost time and production capacity, and in medicines and doctors' bills.

The Minister of Health has offered the discoverer of a cure "any honour he cares to specify."

MARRIED BLISS

57 VARIETIES OF MARITAL DISCORD.

Dr. Arthur Payne, paycho- logist, of New York City College, claims to be an au- thority on how to achieve married bliss, and he sums up his philosophy in a sentence reminiscent of Cromwell's famous axiom:~"Trust in God but keep your powder dry." Dr. Payne's version is: "Marry young, marry for love but use your head

in choosing your mate."
