PRAYERS FOB KUNAWAY WIFE AND THIEF ‘B.P. Times" Special Service.—By Air Mail London, March 20 Prayers for a convicted thief and for a woman who left her husband to live with another man were offered at Christ Church, Claughton, Birkenhead, last Sunday, after marriage problems had been answered from the. pulpit. At a service last month, the vicar, the Rev. H. R. Bates, invited questions dealing with courtships and marriage difficulties. A woman wrote that she left a good husband “in a fit of exasperation” and stayed with another man. She asked if she could expect her husband to take.her back. “What do you men say?” the vicar asked. "She says her husband is good. It she means good by worldly standards he may not take her 'back. But if she means the standard as the attitude of Christ he will take her back.” A man just completing a sentence for theft wanted to know If he could expect a job and the affection of his wife and children. Mr Bates replied: “I am sure that it the children have been told nothing they will give him their affection quickly enough. He cannot ask hla wife to take him back until he confesses he did wrong and he cannot expect an employer to engage him until he has shown some signs of making amends for his wrong-doing.’’

The late G. K. Chesterton, the 1 * wellknown Journalist anil Author, may not have cared much for "cakes and ale” he preferred tobacco and ale and was a keen judge of both. He loved a good cigar tint loved Ids merschaum no less. His favourite 'baccy it seems was a blend of ids own. doubtless very ‘ grateful and comforting" after a hard days work. This same tobacco appears to have resembled in some respects New Zealand s famous Cut Plug No. 10. but differed from If,in one most important particular —it wasn't toasted. As to that, the world's only toasted tobaccos are those ■Town and manufactured within this Do-minion-Cut Plug No. 10 (Builshead), Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Kiverhead Gold Desert Gold. Now you can't go on smoking the ordinary tobaccos for any length of time without getting a burned tongue or other ills. But yon can puff "toasted” freely as yon please; it won't burn your tongue, irritate your throat affect heart or nerves. Where can you find its equal for flavour, aroma, comfort and enjoyment*'
