There are many forms of in- flamation of the skin, the most com- mon of which is eczema or salt -rheum' it occurs frequently among babies and old people. As in any other inflamation, there Is redness- of the part. The redness increases if the part is irritated.. The -part itches and sometimes the itching is almost unbearable. Eczema may be limited to one area, such as the face, or the hands, or the scalp, or it may spread to several parts of the body. An inflamation of the skin may fol- low some irritation from outside. If the hair -brush strikes the ear repeat- pear as a symptom. The skin of some persons is par- ticularly sensitive to certain factors. which, in their cases; act as irritants and set up an inflamation of the skin. Some people can use only the mild- est of soaps; others cannot wear flan- nel next to the skin without having trouble. ''Workers in certain industries, whose hands and wrists are exposed SECRET ) to metals, may have skin trouble. assesessiss{ Eczema is also associated with edly, it may set up an inflamation of the skin of the ear. The inflamations of the skin which are difficult to deal with are those which are due to some internal con- dition. The difficulty in treating them lies in the fact that it is not easy to find the cause, and it is not possible to treat any condition prop- erly until the cause is•known. Prop- er treatment always aims at the re- moval of the cause, otherwise the condition is not cured and will likely, recur. Improper diet or inability .to di- gest food properly may cause eczema. In such cases, it is the diet which must be corrected, or the digestive system cared for.

The person whose health has surfered because of worry, lack of sleep or fresh air, or from any oth- er condition which lowers his general health, may develop eczema as ".a re - stilt. Eczema in old age is often assoc- iated with this general loss of physi- cal fitness which is really old age. The itching which occurs may be relieved by soothing ointments,' but cure can only be brought about by removal of the cause. The physic- ian's services are required in order to find the cause and direct the treat- ment towards the removal ofthe res- ponsible factor. Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation, 184 College St., Toronto, will be answered personally. by letter. the famous Teacher. Taking His text from what had immediately preceded, and addressing especially those who were His disciples, our Lord bade them beware of the "leaven" of the I'hartsees, Le., their example of hy- pocrisy, which would SO easily in- fect and pollute all that received it into their lives. TREASURE FOR ONE'S :SELF. Farrar thought that this parable was suggested to Jesus by the Old Testament story of Nebel, the fool- ish rich roan whom David had pro- tected and who refused David's sim- ple request. And he spake a parable unto them.' The story was designed to show the folly of basing one's happiness on material possessions. Saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully. Christ did not con- demnhim for his industry and prud- ence, or for the amassing of wealth, but for his trust in his possessions, making his life consist in them. And he reasoned within himself. Weymouth: "He debated with him- self." Saying, What shall I do, be- cause I have not where to bestow my fruits? God had promised to re- ward the faithful by opening the win- dows of heaven and pouring out such a blessing that there : shall not be xoom to receive it (Mal. 3:10). But the material gift must not crowd out the Giver. And he said, This will I do. Hedid not plan to use his wealth for the; joy, the comfort, and the elevation of others, but merely to heap'' up more wealth. I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my grain and my goods. Gold, like alcohol, like opium, is a habit-forming drug, and all three of them require an ever-increasing am- ount to produce the same effect. e, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years. The foolish man re- gards , his futures secure. Take ease, eat, drink, ,, , e merry. One's life, one's psyche, does not consist in such things. But God said unto him. The fifth act o fthe awful tragedy; the flashing fall of the sword. Thou foolish one. Man is forbidden to call another, "Thou fool" (Matt. 5:22), for man has not the wisdom to judge another; but God can .say, it, for He knows the heart. This night is thy soul requir- ed of thee. Here is irony indeed. And the things which thou hast pre- pared, whose shall they be? Certain- lynot thine, fo "shroudshave no pockets," heaven has to;bank for ev- en the richest miser, there is no rail- road or ferry to carry things across the black river. "So is he that 'layetb up treasure for himself. Christ does not condemn the laying up of treasure, if it is stor- ed in the right place and for the right purpose. But selfish treasures, the hoards 'made for the sake of hoard- ing or forone's own ease and pleas- ure only, Christ does condemn by this parable. And is not rich toward God.. To be rich toward God is to be wealthy in the things that please God, the things that God knows to be of the highest value, such as faith, hope, and love, such as obedience and righteosuness. These things the fool ish rich man lacked, and how poor was hel Only land that will :respond to good treatment should be cultivated at all. There are many thousands of acres in Ontario that will not pro- duce 'farm crops profitably and should be reforested without further waste of time and energy. Every farmer' who applies in time can get free 3500 trees for reforesting waste areas and 500 for planting in windbreaks. Ap- plication forms are available .at your Iocal Agricultural Office.

The opening verses of this chapter are connected closely with the lunch- eon in the Pharisee's house described in our last lesson, with the resultant bitter attack of the scribes and I'har isecs. While this was` going on. an Immo Ise throng had collected to hear parable, or even unto all? And the Lord said. He does not answer Peter's" question directly, but implies that both the command to ev-atch and the promise for faithful watching together with the punish- ment of unfaithfulness are for. all, Who then is the faithful and 'wise steward, whom his Lord shall set ov- er his household, The steward was the household manager, and the smooth running of the establishment. depended upon him. To give then' their portion of f in due season? In. the home,. Sunday school, the church services, and through the world-wide extension of missions and, evangelism, Christian's supreme work as a stew- ard is to do what he can to dispense the bread of life. Blessed is that servant, whom his Lord when He cometh shall find so doing. This is' the Beautitude of Faithful Stewards, to be added to the eight Beaittitudes at the opening of the Sermon on the Mount. We win this blessing if we keep steadily and joyously about oar God -appointed tasks, -.so that • whenever Christ may 'return to earth He will find us so oc- cupied. Of a truth I say unto you, that he., will set him over all that he hath. "The reward of fidelity is further res- ponsibility." But if that servant shall; say in his heart. It is not what we say with our hp, that determines our lives, but what we say in our hearts. My Lord delayeth His coming. Thus the fact that nineteen centuries have passed, and still the Lord has not returned to earth has given men a false sense of security; but each year and day of delay but brings the' great .event the nearer, and during the nineteen cent- uries uncounted millions, thought He has not come to them in judgment, icav�e been taken- before Him. And shall begin to beat the menservants and the maidservants. Cruel and op- pressive to his :subordinates, he is . a type of all who have not in' their hearts the merciful spirit of the Son of God. And' to' 'eat and drink, and to be drunken, Gluttony and drunk- enness go together.

But he that knew not, and did things. worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. Three grades of sin are recognized, and three grad- es of punishment follow. `And to whosoever much is given, of him shall much be required. And to whom they commit much, of him will they ; ask the more. It is amazing to note men's 'greed for possessions, men's thirst for power, men's desire for office.
