USES FOR.SALT
Eggs and salt poi together whether
on the table .or ;in the kileten cook-
ing pote..A.,4Acked egg cart be boil-
ed . atieeeeelAly by adding a tea-
, spoonful of. salt to the water aT el the
white will not run out.. A pinch of
salt should always beadded to the
water wherl; oaching eggs and the
C1700111 or 1,N vo of eggs cu be beat-
en rip far more readily if salt is
added.
In hot weather, when you are
tired and thirsty, and partieelarly
after profuse perspiration, when you
feel the need .of a long, deep drink
of water, add a pinch of salt to it.
It is the urest, most scientific pre-
ventive of heat exhaustion or heat
cramps. If the men are working in
the garden or the children are play-
ing outside on a hot day, put a little
salt in the water they will want to
drink when they come in and they
will be saved a lot of discomfort and
have more energy.
TRY THESE :TPS
Adhesive will hold shoulder straps
in place on an evening gown, as well
as repairing a corset, especially
when bones feel inclined to slip out.
And it can be a real life saver when
the tip comes off shoes laces, Just
wind a little adhesive around the
frayed shoe lace and see how easily
it slips into the eyelets.
If there are a lot of bottles resting
on a slippery glass shelf, it is a
good notion to apply strips of ad-
hesive to the bottom of the bottles
so that there will be no chance of
slipping and breaking. This goes for
vases or any other objects that rest
on highly polished surfaces. If you.
store clothes or household articles in
ordinary cardboad boxes it is a good
idea to hermetically seal the sides
down with adhesive so that there will
be no danger of dust or moths get-
ting in. Leave a piece of the tape
beyond the edge of the box so that
you can get a grip on it when you
want to open the box again.
Adhesive tape should be wrapped
around the handles on ash cans .or
pails or anything heavy which must
be handled. It can be used to repair
a mattress or a canvas sleeping cot
and will keep a rope from ravelling,
It will hold curtain drapes in place
and will repair shades and windo-w
awnings. Adhesive will mend broken
or cracked linoleum and can be used
as a binding edge on a carpet that
has been cut. It is a good idea to tape
the bottom of a rocking chair to pre-
vent skidding and adhesive will keep
heat pads in place as well as taping
back the protruding ears of a child.

is the best way of sealing a room for

ful for mending satchels, suitcases
and brief eases as well as for mend-

THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time and Place — The twelfth
chapter of Genesis records and event
occurring B.C. 2083, Jonah carried
on his prophetic ministry principally
in B.C. 862. The appearance of
Christ here given from Matthew's
Gospel occurred in the late spring
of A.D. 30, in Galilee. The passages
taken from the Book of Acts record
events occurring in Jerusalem, An-
tioch, Asia Minor, Macedonia, and,
Caesarea.
* * *
"They therefore, when they were
come together, asked him, saying."
The verb asked is in the imperfect
active, indicating that they repeated-
ly asked before Jesus answered.
"Lord, doest thou at this time re-
store the kingdom to Israel?" See
Luke 24 : 21. As a matter of fact,
the Messianic kingdom, for which
they were asking, is a political king-
dom that would throw off the hated
Roman yoke.
"And he said unto them, It is not
for you to know times or seasons."
The first word, times, may well be
taken to mean space of time as such,
the duration of the Church's history,
and (the second), the critical periods
in that history. "Which the Father
hath set within his own authority."
The marginal reading is probably
the clearer: Which the Father hath
appointed by his own authority. In
these words the meaning of which,
when taken in their connection, is
as plain as day, our Lord Jesus ab-
solutely forbade even His inspired
apostles, and much more us, to seek
to penetrate the domain of dates in
connection with His costing and His
kingdom.
"But ye shall receive power." They
were thinking of his power over
Gentile nations; he was concerned
for their power over the world, the
flesh, and the devil, in a personal
ministry. "When the Holy Spirit is
come. upon you." The power which

dividual believer . in just strength to
do the present will of God.
"And ye shall be my witnesses." A
witness is one who has seen that to
which he bears witness, is able ac-
curately= and truly to appraise its
value, and is able also to communi-
cate what he has seen. "Both in
Jerusalem, and in all Judaea and
Samaria, and unto the uttermost
part' of the earth." This verse is a
table of contents to the book of the
Acts of the Apostles. The whole
book is a description of the fulfill-
ment of this promise: the Spirit
given; the witness -bearing begun in
Jerusalem by Peter.
"Now there were at Antioch, in
the church that was there." Antioch
of Syria, where the disciples were
first called Christians (Acts 11 : 26).
Here begins the first great mission-
ary journey of Paul, where Gentiles
in large numbers had first been
united to the Church. "Prophets and
teachers, Barnabas, and Symeon that
was called Niger." The latter a Jew,
not mentioned elsewhere in the New
Testament. "And Lucius of Cyrene."
Periaps the one referred to in Rom.

brother of Herod the terarch, and

Lord, and fasted, the Holy Spirit
said." Speaking to and through the
prophets who were there, Ideal con-

Keep Farm Accounts
To the many obvious reasons for
keeping farm accounts should be add-
ed the folowing one, at least under
present conditions, according to of-
ficials of the Field Hesbandry Divis-
ion. Farmers seeking credit are be-
ing required to furnish an increas-
ing amount of information. A state-
ment of net worth as obtained from
a , farm account book is the basic
credit statement, In addition, bor-
rowers may be required to urnish
a budget of expenses and income in
order to arrive at a schedule of bor-
rowing and repayments. Without
adequate records of his farm busi-
ness the borrower cannot do himself
justice to represent his application in
the most favourable light.
Furthermore, over a period of sev-
eral years faim account books bring
out an increasing number of useful
facts. The records sugest that differ-
ent fields need different soil treat-
ment. They give definite standards
of performance in the use of feeds,
in the production of butterfat and
other livestock products, and do
much to change the yearly plans. of
the farmer from a matter of chance
and guesswork into reasonable plans
based on demonstrated facts and re-
lationships.
