iSIEART and NERVES Were So Bad .COULDN'T DO HOUSEWORK Mto. E. Finch, 251 Silverbirch Avo., 'Toronto, Ont., writes:—“After my third baby was born my heart and nerves were <so bad I could do no housework, and was very ill indeed. I took ft bad spell and •0 very one thought I was going todie. A friend asked me to try THE WOMAN MOTOR CAMPER Sunday School Jiftek Day, N.B.,D.

A shovel like this is necessary, for the good camper must bury all waste and leave bls camp site as sweet and free from fuso as ho found it. It may ride side the canisters in the tonneau. The family camp, cook stove, small black box, consisting of two burners and an attached cylindrical can of gasoline, not to mention the oven which fits it, is ap enormous comfort, although ono that may ba joyously dispouaod with- as this camp- or can testify aftor successfully cook ing all one summer over a gypsy fire with crane and pot hooks cut frpm the immediate thicket.

An idea of its com fortable simplicity, however, may be gained when it is said that from tho time the family gets up in the morn ing until the car is packed—a period which includes washing, dressing, , Cooking and eating a hearty break-- fast, washing dishes and packing the equipment on the car, all without un due ha^te—is just two hours.- Acquisitions and Eliminations. • These wanderers carry a 9x9 army officers tent, with fly. which was picked up secondhand at an army store for ?18. Experience of more than one summer’s tenting has con vinced them that this was a wise choice.

This | method of carrying a tent allows the doors to open freely.

By camping the writer moans just that particular sort of roughing It that calls for ft i tent, and involves stooping on fclitj. small boys who ride there ground, wrapped In army blankets, and cooking one’s food over ft blazing camp fire. If wives loved this form of outing as. husbands do, half the world would be a-tonting. Ono of the greatest blessings of this * free modo of living is the emancipa tion from tho things of civilization— all the hundreds of things that have to be swept and ducted and scrupul ously cared for, day in and day out, froni ofto year's end to another, To : look at flowers, trees and bills Instead of rugs, tables and chairs, is a com plete rest.

In thp top of tho duffle bags each person keeps a small flitty bay to contain all tlioso little indispensable articles that have a way of persistently losing themselvos unless they are housed heterogeneously in small quarters. I Appropriate -Clothes. j To say that a large part of the suc cess of a summer's outing depends, on clothes seems a ridiculous state ment but try only a week out and test the truth of the assertion. The feminine contingent of the family force finds that emancipation from skirts relieves her from awkwardness in. climbing fences and jumping brooks. Two pairs o^f klmkl or dark gray wool knickers with one all-wool shirt and two silk ones to match the trousers are, on the whole, tho most satisfactory kind, of clothes for cither jman or woman. Silk and woolen ma- ' terials are the most comfortable and, , the most easily laundered in that J aIly friendly wayside brook by which may be clewed up. converted into a double awning, af fords a delightfully cool shelter un der which the camping family may sit, comfortably protected from the blazing sun. Many people carry folding camp beds,’ but this party of wanderers chooses to eliminate these as things of no essential comfort, and just so many objects to bo cared for and oc cupy valuable space. It is surprising bow completely comfortable the ground -is after the second night out-. 1 For sleeping on the ground, a water proof poncho, a3 protection against ground dampness, is necessary. Over this poncho should bo spread an all- wool army' blanket for warmth. Then, clad in all-wool night clothes, the pil grims may crawl into an Australian wool sleeping bag (made from the di rections which can be found in a cir cular issued by tho Appalachian .

THE REBUKE, 12:1-14. in. THS PUNISHMENT, 12:15-25. INTROPUCTIQN—-The Biblical histor ians are lvot blind to David’s faults. It is true that in some passages they dwell upsn anti display his virtues, I his courage, his magnanimity, his ca pacity for friendship, his generous treatment of his personal enemies, and above all his piety, and all that, j no doubt, quite justly. But they frankly tell us also of hto weaknesses j and his sins, the falsehood by. which he secured ior himself and his com pany the hospitality of the priests of Nob and thus brought upon them the ve-nigounbe of Saul (1 Sam. 21:1-9; 22:9-28), has cruel treatment of pris oners taken in war (2 Sam. 8:2; 12: 31), the multiplication of the Inmates of his harem (1 Chrom 14:3), an-d consequent uncontrolled disorders in his family life. The deepest stain upon his character is tho crime re corded in our lesson., and th® only re lieving feature of the tragic and shameful story is his apparently gen uine confession and repentance under tho rebuke of Nathan (12:13). The great pemtential Psalm 51 is assign ed by its title to thin occasion and may. represent David's prayer for God’s mercy. I. THE CRIME, 11:1-25. The time referred to in verse 1, “after the year was expired,” or “at the return of the year,” must have been the spring time. After the cold and wet weather of the winter was, past, the army under Joab went out to war with tho Ammonites, east of Jordan, and, besieged Rabbah, their capital city. The name of Bathsheba is given somewhat diffeently in 1 Ghron. 3:5. She is famous in the later history as the mother of Solomon. Uriah, her husband, was one of David’s select company -o-f thirty honorable and' valiant men, named in chap. 23. His character appaers in this story as that of a brave and loyal soldier, stead fastly true to his comrades, his com mander and his military duty. The selfish cruelty o-f David stands out in dark contrast. % ■ For the reference to Abimelech, whft, was killed by a millstone thrown upon his h-ead from a city wall, see Judges, chap. 9. The comment of the historian is significant — “But the thing that David had1 done displeased tho I/o-rd.” Compare Psalm 51:4. II. TI-IE REBUKE, 12:1-14. The Lord sent Nathan to David. Not once only but many times did the Lord send a prophet to rebuke a king for wrong-doing. See 1 Sam. 13:13, 14; 15:16-31; 1 Kings 21:17:29. Na than tells the king the story, which is ‘ in reality a parable, of the poor man and his one ewe lamb. David, sup posing the story to be literally true, becomes very angry and declares that the man that hath done this thing, shall surely die. The answer of Na than is swift an-d fearless, “Thou art the man-.” God had done great things for David, or which the prophet re minds him. The reference to his mas ter’s drives does not -imply that he had i actually taken any of Saul’s wives in marriage, but only that as king and as Saul's successor he had the right to do according to the custom of the time. Nathan does- not spare David in his indictment “Thou hast killed Uriah,” he says, “with the sword of the children of Ammon.” He alone Is the murderer, and the dread penalty of his crime is that the sword shall never depart from his house. The word of the prophet was fulfilled in the murder of Amnon (13:28), the rebellion and death of Absalom (18: 14), and tho execution of A don. ij ah (1 Kings 2:25)'. David’s repentance under the scath ing denunciation of hie friend and counselor was undoubtedly sincere, it wins Nathan’s assurance of God’s forgiving grace, “The Lord also’hath put away thy sin.” For “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; A broken and a co-ntrite heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise.” Verso 14 should read, “Howbeit, be cause thou hast despised Jehovah in this thing,” the meaning probably be ing that he had brought the name of Jehovah, his God, into men’s ecorn and contempt by the crime which he had committed. It to very easy to fall into a rut when getting summer breakfasts,. Yet, even then, breakfast should be a good repast which will speed th® wage , earners happily on their way.

Set the adults facing the house if there are u® vines to screen them from passers-by; the chil dren will not mind facing the street, Or, pack into the car tho night he* fore everything that will be needed tor breakfast, as far as feasible, and take the family off to some secluded spot in (ho morning, to finish its pre-, paratlon and eat it. A simple stove for out-door cooking should be part of the summer equip ment in' every automobile belonging to a family, Some are of such size | that they may b® carried under the back seat along with a small shovel, a hatchet, a poker and supplies of kindling and charcoal. If these are always on hand, by packing at night a package of cooked cereal, bread, eggs and sliced bacon, one has a good etart toward a substantial breakfast consisting of berries or other fruit and cream, cereal, bacon, ter and milk. Berries should be night before serving, fruit jar and left in over night.

As so often happens the sin of tho parents is visited upon the child. The babe was very rick, and, David' again and again (such is the meaning o-f the veriis used) went in to his chamber, and- lay all night upon the earth, fast ing and praying to God for the life of his child. The elders of his house, his oldest and most trusted servants, were concerned for him and feared, to tell him in the end of the child’s death. When he was told1, however, he laid aside all signs of m-o-urning, went into the tent sanctuary and there worshipped, submitting himself to the hand- of God. “I shall go to him,” he said1, meaning to the grave, “but ho shall not. return to me.” Why Keep on Advertising? If the same people always lived in the same place and kept on doing tho same things, then it mght not be necessary to keep on advertising day after day, month after month and year after year. But they don't. Part of America's market dies every day and a new part takes its place. Fami lies not only change their living places, but they change their buying habits. The pay envelope of to-day is not spent -exactly the same as the pay envelope of five years ago was spent, nor will the pay envelope of next year be spent exactly as the pay envelope of this week. Ono advertising man has theso figures about the changes that take place in our markets In a singlo year: "2,500,000 babies start' their earthly careers; 400,000 high school students discover that a dip loma is no opanses.ame to a job; 1,- 250,000 couples decide that two can live cheaper than one; 2,000,000 fami lies get the wanderlust; 1,400,000 peo ple shako off tho ’Mortal coil’:” To play a bigger part in the mar kets of to-morrow you must keep In front of the public your wares to-day —and every day.
