ECZEMA ON HANDS Would Itch and Burn Work was a Burden There is no remedy like B< B. B. for giving relief to all sufferers, no remedy that can do more for those who are driven to distraction with the terrible tortures of eczema. Mrs. Jas. A. Culrie, R. R. No. 3, Dresden, Ont., writes“For a number of years I was troubled with a form of eczema on my hands. They would itch and burn so at night I could not rest, and my Work was a burden to me. I tried different ointments, but of no avail. At last I Was advised to use Burdock Blood Bitters, and"' after taking three bottles my hands were healed and I have had no return of the eczema since.” about each person by a Government .census-taker during the opening week ****** * * Russia has secured American machines but she does not know how to operate them successfully. They set up a factory to run out 30,000 machines in a given time, instead of '30,000 the ac­ tual output was 3,150.

Riots in scores of places meet the leader who- but a short time was a political prisoner in behalf of his convictions. Little by little his government is show­ ing that the forces of law and order are stronger than the forces of lawlessness. Communists, monarchists and anarchists are learn­ ing that the torch is no adequate reply to argument. The electors who voted a monarchy out and a republic in, alone can determine who is to rule, Reasonable people all over the world will be glad to see the new republic given a fair chance. Time and results will qii'iclAy demonstrate the comparative values of monarchism and of republicanism, Riot, burning, bloodshed, lawlessness prove noth­ ing and settle nothing. * * ****** WHY WORRY Yes, times are a 'bit hard, but that is no cause for worry. Joneses are in the same boat as the rest of us. Mrs. Jones will need to dye up a few feathers and ribbons for her last year’s hat. Mr. Jones will need to forget about the cigars. The Jones boys will need to re-crease the old trousers. The upper set will have to' play less bridge. The dog will need to gnaw his bone a little closer. Some will need to darn up the discarded cotton or woollen stockings and a good many will have to burn a. good deal less gaso­ line. But when the richest among us is poor, who cares?- Is there not evidence that there’ll be plenty of nickles even if there, are not very many quarters? * * * * * * QUALITY For forty years we have been a people bent on speed and money handling. We have been buying and selling rather than merchandising. We have been mussing up the soil and throwing feed before the livestock rather than farming. There has been • little pride in workmanship. When it came to a sense of spiritual ■reality the church has slipped badly. All through our social life we have honored bluff and glitter and artful dodging. And now we’re reaping precisely what we have sown. And now the "wind and hail are beating with disastrous ven­ geance upon our tawdry houses of cards. .Some must go down beneath the storm. But to the wise these are days of opportunity. The man who makes “quality” his aim and “thorough” his method has nothing to fear and everything to gain, provided he works hard and reason­ ably., The gates are closing on a barren thirty years as far as valuable achievement is- concerned. Speed and mass are giving way to thoughtfulness and quality. Steel and gasoline are coming to- be mine servants not their masters. The little flower in the ciannied wall is of more value than a dreadnought. The twenty- third psalm means more for the good of the race than the tallest skyscraper ever built. ** ***** * NABBED Those simpletons who thought they could get away with Pon­ tiac bank robbery enjoyed a few hours of crowded life as they ’ thought they were the real thing in. the line of bad men. They stole revolvers and so became “gunmen.” They stole a car and so became “auto thieves.” They captured an airplane and so became “kings of the air.” They stole mpney and so were in possession of. “loot.” Then they met officers of the law and became plain prisoners. 'Their glofy had departed and they stood before the world as simpletons and would-be toughs. Sadly lacking in brain gray-matter. We know some youths who are trying to copy their bad ex­ ample. They swear profanely. They swagger. They chew gum offensively and wear their hats after the fashion of the blackguard. They “sauce” their parents. They wont work. They count on the softness of clergymen to beg them off when get caught. More dramatic still, they see themselves heads cf “gangs.” These dandies should be caught young. They should be told that this good town has no place for them. They should be brought before the magistrate^ and be asked why they neither spin, nor spin. They should then be bound over to keep the peace and fed on bread and water till they get to work, even if it’s only pounding sand.
