HESE chilly mornings the

alarm clock gets a lot of hard words, but endless time and . trouble can be saved by using it more in your Home,

In the kitchen it can be set as a reminder to watch some parti- cular saucepan or dish in the oven. Or if you set it just indoors while doing a bit of gardening, you will be warned in good time to sturt the dinner.

There is no need to keep one cuc on the clock to feed baby promptly, or even to set out in time to fetch a young child from

school, if you call your alarm 'clock into service.

* "That lime jonë had an important appointment and you rather over- did your after-lunchcón nap, your alarm clock, set beforehand, would have spared that frantic lust- minutes rush.

In the same way, you may be remiuird to telephone the grocer or butcher about that "special something" required before half- day closing, ar perhaps a private telephone call which can only be dime at a certain time.

Ease your worry when nursing an invalid requiring an assort- ment of nourishment and medi cines, at varying times, by selling the warning bell. Remind your- self, also, to take that tonic you are positive would do you a world of good if only you could remem- her the wretched stuff."

When you were so busy that you forgot to switch on the radio for that interesting talk, or to write that important letter in time to catch the post, you could have jogged your memory by "ringing yourself up" with your alarm clock.

Mr. Aubrey writes:

You might be interested to know that I am a regular and satisfied user of MACLEANS Peroxide Tooth Paste. As you will see from the accom panying photograph, my teeth are as white and healthy as any man could wish, although I smoke a good deal.”
