THE EXETER TIMES-ADVOCATE *
1A REMEDY FOR POISON IVY
In a recent issue of The Flowex*
<Jrower is a letter from Chas. L.
Thompson (N.Y), who wi’ites.
“X have been so badly poisoned by
ivy while in pursuit of bulbs in the
woods that I thought I would either
die oi’ be confiped in a sanitarium.
Eac|.i of my fingers on both hands
■were bandaged, hands bandaged,
each arm to the elbows, each leg to
Above the knee, my face, my neck,
jaiy ears, and besides parts of my
liody. First a small spot became
itchy on one wrist, then all over,
them came a rash, then came blis
ters and torture. I was in this con
dition of many days, under care of
a, doctor. Then I saw I recipe in a
paper and in a few days I knew I
was not going mad.
“Take a pint bottle of watei’ and
jput in 10 to 12 drops muriatic acid,
shake it up, and then saturate ban
dages with this solution and keep
it wet all the time and the poison
won disappears. It takes a poison
4o kill a poison. The remedy is
simple and cheap.
“When I first used this, I put in 1
tablespoonful of acid to pint of wa-
<er and when that was too strong
diluted it one-half and again when
that was too strong again diluted it
•one half. So -deep had the poison
penetated my flesh, that I still bear'
tho scars on my wrists and legs.
ORANGE ICE CREAM
Dssolve one package orange jelly
powder in one pint boling water add
one-half cupful sugar, the juice of
one half lemon, the thinly grated
ripd of an orange and one-half cup
ful of orange juice. Stir well, and
chill until thick but not set.
In the meantime, prepare the ice
cream freezer as directed; pour in
one cupful rich cream and one cup
ful top milk. When jelly mixture
has slightly thickened, add it to the
chilled cream, mix well and freeze.
This makes a delicious, velvety
cream which tastes as though it had
been made of all cream. This is a
fine way to use up cream that is
slightly “turned” which is whole
some but not useful for serving in
tea or coffee.
“I lent a. friend 100 francs and
did not get a receipt. What shall
I do?”
“Write and a^k) him for the 200
francs he owes you.”
“But it was only 100 fracs.”
“Yes, ,he|Will answer that he only
owes you 100 francs and you will
get your receipt.”—Pele Mele, Paris
Critic: “Gee, but you have a lot
of bum jokes Snthis issue.”
Editor; “Oh, I don’t know. I
put a bunch cf thorn in the stove
and the fire just roartd.”;—Ex

J BLACKSMITH AND IMPLEMENT DEALER ■i

Dear Mr. Strang:
Now that, you are about to relin
quish your position as Superintend
ent of Home Missions in Southern
Saskatchewan, after seventeen years
of most faithful and efficent service
your brethren in the Conference
have felt that they could not let the
occasion pass without endeavoring
to express in some way their regard
for yourself and their appreciation
of your work.
You began your duties as super
intendent when much of your ter
ritory was still in a pioneer state,
or not far removed from such. For
the progress of our church in South
ern Saskatchewan during these cro
wded years a large measure of credit
is due to you. In the task of organ
izing and caring for the mission
fields you have been infatigable in
your exertions, “in journeyings of
ten,” never sparing yourself, but
ever willing “to endure hardness as
a good soldier of Jesus Christ.” The
people of the Mission Fields have al
ways found you keenly interested in
their welfare; in their homes you
are a welcome visitor, and the child
ren there have a special regard for
you, many of whom are indebted to
your encouragement for pecious pas
sages of scripture truth with which
their young memories have been
richly stored. To the students you
have been a sympathetic friend and
wise counsellor, and many a young
man, by your kindness to him on
his first mission field,, has been con
firmed, in spite of many perplexities
in his choice of the ministry as his
life calling. With the local boards
you have been tactful and fair, yet
always patiently leading them on to
their full duty. We know it has
been a great joy to you to see the
wonderful expansion of Church work
in your territory, with so many
charges once missions moving up to
a self-supporting status. Your sys-
temized methods have made it pos
sible to keep the work well in order
and the Home Mission Board and
the Church well informed.
Your brethren have found you a
faithful Presbyter and a valuable
member of Synod and Conference.
Here, as everywhere, while possess
ed of strong convictions, you have
been fair to opposing views, con
trolled in utterance and gracious in
manner. Many of us have had the
privilege of a close personal friend
ship with you, the memory of which
will always remain a delight.
We are no.t unmindful of your
part in the great Church Union
Movement; how, realizing especially
the needs of the frontier, you guid
ed many communities into efficient
local unions and thus rendered a
marked service in preparing for the
nation-wide union consummated
three years ago.
With all your care for organiza
tion and finance you have never lost
sight of the real purpose of our mis
sion work—the proclaiming to hu
man souls of the saving Gospel of
our Lord Jesus Christ. While your
w.ork has thus been for the blessing
of more individuals than you know
it lias been also of immense com
munity and n'ational value, for in
this formative period you have as
sisted in a splendid way in insuring
that foundations shall be well and
truly laid in that righteousness
which the loyal recognition of God
alone can inspire.
Will you please accept from the
members of Conference this watch
as a token of our esteem and appre
ciation, It is our hope—a hope in
which the people of Southern Sask
atchewan mission fields join, that it
may continue to mark for you the
passing hours during many years
to come, in which you may enjoy a
life of less labor and strain, while we may cd^inue to ..have in our
Church affairs the benefit of your
kindly counsel and ripe experience.
Signed on behalf of the Confer
ence.

commendations on pags 236 of the
Provincial Report Book.
. (3) Recommend that every Union

Work Book done in every school

That it is a great opportunity
and responsibility has been afforded

and Publishers --of the Northern
Messenger to create a wave of tem
perance sentiment through educa
tion from ocean to ocean by enlist
ing the Sunday School scholars in

u League of Nations
At th'e World’s Court Geneva, a
request that the problem of alco
holism be investigated, was made
by Finland, Poland, Sweden, Den
mark, Belgium and Czecho-Slovakio.
The representatives from Bulgar
ia and Great Britain supported it
but our Canadian Commissioner-
General, in Paris, Hon. Phillipe Roy
with some other nations strenuous
ly opposed it and the matter had to
drop. This question will come up
again in September.
10) Recommend that immediately
a letter of protest against Mr. Roy’s
action be sent to our Dominion
Member of Parliament.
The following Resolutions were
also carried by the convention:
The Resolutons Committee con
vened and brought in the following
resolutions. ,
1. Be it resolved—
That since the W. C. T. U.
interested in suppressing the use
tobacco as well as that of liquor,
that we disapprove of the advertise
ments for cigarettes, written to ap
peal especially to women, also that
we deplore the increase of smoking
among women and girls.
2. Resolved that every effort be
made by the W. C. T. U.‘ members
■to secure their husbands as honor
ary members of the society and thus
gain their interest in temperance
work.
3. Be it resolved that we place
on record our deep regret at the
retrograde step taken by our pro
vince in setting aside the O. T. A.
and replacing it with the Govern
ment Control system, which is
known to be a failure in every pro
vince in which it has been tried.
Furthermore, that we urge our wo
men not to be disheartened, but
with renewed energy to throw our
selves into the work of educating
ouy people, young and old, with re
gard to the evil and harmful effects
of intoxicating liqubrs.
4. Be it resolved that the Huron
County W. C. T. U. place on record
their appreciation of the visit of
Mrs.« George, of London, to our
county In the spring. Her addresses
in the schools were most impressive
and our women were inspired and
enthused by their association with
her. Her presence and assistance ih
this convention has been invaluable.
.5 .Be it resolved that we express
our appreciation of the kindness of
■. the . Clinton women
so hospitibly both

entertained us ih
