"'The Children's xiour" brings up
visions of Longfellow's happy circle
or au ultra -anoderm New York theat-
rical success, but to some lucky chil-
dren it brings visions of the hour
dren it brings visions of the hour
when they get home from school —
hungry as little bears and supper
time not for hours yet! It is then that
special snacks taste so good and what
is more popular than bread and but-
ter spread with home-made jam or
jelly? Doctors agree that jams and
jellies made in the modern way with
bottled fruit pectin are very whole-
some and healthful. The fruits have
not lost their natural goodness by a
long boiling, and lovely flavors have
been captured to be enjoyed at any
season. The tang of fresh and ripe
strawberries can be carried through
from June to January. Just imagine!

When you are making strawberry or
raspberry jelly or jam during the neat
few weeks, the lovely flavour and co-
lor of these berries can be preserved
by modern short -boiling methods and
the use of battled fruit pectin, to be
enjoyed on a frosty grey afternoon in
January. Bottled fruit pectin makes
it possible to have many lovely fruits
and fruit combinations in jams and
jellies and to bring joy and happiness
to the children's hour.
Strawberry or Raspberry Jelly
4 cups (2 lbs.) juice; 7'/s cups (3%
lbs.) sugar; 1 bottle fruit pectin.

uncooked juice ferments quickly.
Measure juice and sugar into large
saucepan, stir, and bring to a boil. At
once add pectin, stirring constantly,
and then bring again to a full rolling
boil and boil lh minute. Remove from
fire, let stand 1 minute, skim, pour
quickly. Cover hot jelly with a film
of hot paraffin; when jelly is cold,
cover with 1-8 inch of hot paraffin.
Roll glass to spread paraffin on the
sides. Black raspberry jelly sets very
slowly. Requires about 3 quarts ber-
ries. Makes about 11 eight -ounce glas-
ses.

Girl Whose Heart Ceased T a Feat
Does Not Know What Death. L. k e
British Physician Who Studied Astounding,: Experience of
Mary Davonport Says Anaesthetic Affected
Her Brain Cells '
SHEFFIELD, Eng.—British medi-
cal circles heard the astounding .tory
Mary Davenport's seven -minute in-
terlude of "death" in a dental chair,
how she lost 24 teeth and how she
went back to work in a steel factory.
"The case .poses in question .for
those who believe the soul leaves the
body on the instant of death" remark-
ed Dr. Alfred A. Masser of Sheffield.
He described the case for the British
Medical Journal.
"She remembers nothing about her
strange experience," the doctor assert-
ed. "There were no dreams under
the chloroform. Her brain registered
no reaction to what death is like, be•
cause the brain cells still were under
the effect of the anaesthetic during
the seven minutes of lifelessness."
Dr. Masser reported the 20 -year-
old girl's heart stopped beating short-
ly after chloroform had been admin-
istered preliminary to having her
teeth extracted by a dentist.
"The patient went suddenly white,
breathing stopped and the pupils
dilated widely. The pulse and heart
sounds could not be detected.
"The head was immediately low-
ered, artificial. respiration started,
and strychnine was given hypodermi-
cally.
"While this was being carried on,
I massaged her through the dia-
phragm from beneath the costa'- mar-
gin. No response of any sort oc-
curred, so I decided to try an intra-
cardiac injection of 'icoral', plunging
a long needle into the left ventricle
about the level of the fourth space,
and slowly injected the 'icoral'.
"Immediately after this, the mas-
sage through the diaphragm was con-
tinued, and in about one minute I
could see a flaint flicker of pulsation
in the external jugular vein of the
neck.•
"After another 10 minutes of anti''
finial respiration the breathing re-
commenced and the pulse at the wrist
gradually returned.
"Her condition gradually improved
so much that I decided to continue
the anaesthetic with open ether, and
the dentist proceeded to remove about
24 teeth."
The report addded the girl made an
uneventful recovery. She went back
to work two days later.

LESSON II. July 12
WITNESSING UNDER
PERSECUTION
Acts 3 : 1-4 : 31;
I Corinthians 1 : 21-25
GOLDEN TEXT.—We must obey
God rather than men. Acts 5 : 29.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time.—The events recorded in the
third and fourth chapters of Acts
took place in the sununer of A.D. 30.
The First Epistle to the Corinthians
was written from Ephesus, approxi-
mately a quarter of a century later,
about A.D. 56.
Place.—The city of Jerusalem.
"And it came pass on the morrow,
that their rulers and elders and
scribes were gathered together in
Jerusalem. And Annas the high
priest was there." While Annas had
been deposed in 14 A.D. from this
Position by the Roman procurator, he
was nevertheless looked upon as the
leader of the Jewish Sadducean .avis-
tocracy, anal enjoyed for nearly half
a -century the real power of the high
priesthood. Christ was brought to
Annas first in the unfair trial which
he underwent (John 18 :13, 24). "And
Caiaphus." He was the son-in-law of
Annas, "equally astute, unscrupulous,
and. unpatriotic." "And John, and
Alexander." Of these two men we
know nothing. "And as many as
were of the kindred of the high
priest" This was an official meet-
ing of the . most important body of
men in all. Jewry.
"And when they had set them in
the midst, they inquired, By what
power, or in what name, have ye done
this?" The picture of these Galilean
apostles standing before the most
august bpdy of religious leaders in
the world at that time is a picture
which the imagination does well to
dwell upon.
"Then 'Peter, filled with the Holy
Spirit, said unto then, Ye rulers of
the people, and elders. If we this day
are examined concerning a gooddeed
done to an impotent man, by what
means this man is made whole."
Peter's "opening sentence has a sting
of :sarcasm in it." He stated that
they had been charged "not with a
crime, but with a deed of benevo-
3 W.F.
lence. The council was at a disad-
vantage from the start. A good deed
was then, as it is now, the bulwark
of the gospel."
"Be it known unto you all, and to
all the people of Israel, that in the
name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,
whom ye crucified, whom God raised
from the dead, even in him doth this
man stand here before you whole."
Peter is not frightened by the learn-
ing, power, and hatred of the men
before whom he faces. He is possessed
with facts.
"He is the stone which was set at
nought of you the builders, which was
made the head of the corner." The
quotation is from Psalm 118: 22, a
verse used also by the Lord Jesus
(Matt. 21 : 42; Luke 20 : 17), and,
many years later, again by the
apostle Peter (I Pet. 2 7; 8.
"And in none' is there salvation:
for neither is there ally other name
under heaven, that is given among
men, wherein we must be saved. "The
original question was not one of sal-
vation. It was merely a question of
healing a lame man, but you never
find the apostles confining them-
selves to the mere incident. Every
miracle is only a text; every sign or
token is only a starting -point.
"For seeing that in the wisdom of
God the world through its wisdom
knew not God." This passage is much
like the one which Paul wrote a few
years later in the opening chapter of
his epistle to the Romans (1 : 19-25).
"It was God's good pleasure through
the foolishness of the preaching to
save them that believe." "It is called
foolishness (1) because 'those who
were perishing thought it so'; (2) it
required no high intellectual gift, but
simple faith in a crucified and risen
Lord."
"Seeing that Jews ask for signs."
)See Matt.' 12 : 38; 16 : 4; John 4 :
48.) 'The Jews sought for visible
proof that Christ was the Messiah.
"And Greeks seek after wisdom."
"The Greek restlessly felt after some-
thing which could dazzle his ingeni-
ous, speculative turn, and he passed
by anything which failed to satisfy
his intellectual curiosity (Acts 17 :
18, 21, 23)."
"But we preach Christ crucified,
unto ;rows z .stumblingbioc}i, and nate
Gentiles foolishness." Paul was cone
fident that there was to power in a
Christian message unless that mes-
sage centered in the cross of Christ,
"But unto them that are called,
both .Jews and Greeks, Christ the
power of God, and the wisdom of
God." Christ crucifies] is the power
of God because the gospel is "the
power, of God unto salvation" (Rom,
1 ; 10). By the work of Christ on the
cross, we are delivered from the
wrath to come, we have peace with
God, we are redeemed from the bond-
age of sin, we aro made members of
the body of Christ.
"Because the foolishness of God is
wiser than men; and the weakness of
God is stronger than men. A para-',
phraseof this verse might read:' "The
doctrine of the cross, though regarded.
as absurd and 'powerless, has more
Of power and wisdom than anything
which ever proceeded from men."

Sufferers From Heart Disease
Should Not Hurry
or Worry
Mr. A. W. Cutten's death front the'
heart disease draws attention to a'
timely article in the Canadian, Public'
Health Jounal from Dr. John A. Oii
le, assistant professor of medicine, of
the University of Toronto, writes the
Toronto Mail and Empire. Having re-
viewed statistics on the subject he
says that really there is nothing very
alarming in the increasing death rate'
from heart and vascular disease, be.
cause in Ontario in 1933 over 55 per'
cent of these cardiac deaths have oc-
curred aver 70 years of age, and over?
75 per cent of them over 60 years of)
age. The percentages that occur over`
60 and 70 are steadily increasing. Five)
years ago 73 per cent occurred over.
60 and 50 per cent over 70. During the.)
last fifty years there has been sur
prisingly little difference in the total'
numbers of deaths per year. These
deaths have declined approximately)
10 per cent. What has happened has)
merely been that the various causes
have switched and that the average'
span of life has greatly lengthened.
To sufferers from this disease Dr.
Lille offers sensible advice. Arterial
hypertension, commonly called high
blood pressure is a progressive, incur-
able disease of unknown origin, al-
ways tending to end fatally in from;
one to two or twenty or thirty years.;
It is highly important in treating the,
cases of hypertension to do nothing'
harmful. "In spite of much teaching`
to the contrary, it is extremely con-}
mon for doctors to cut meat or prol
tein or salt out of the diet of such pa-
tients, and the majority of the laity
believe implicitly that blood pressure)
can be controlled by diet. The other.
harmful measure which is commonly,
tache use of is unfavourable suggest-}
ion. These patients are warned unnec->
essarily against exercise, and they:
are in constant dread of strokes, anal
heart failure etc. It is important to
make all remarks to such patients adl
encouraging and reassuring as post
sable, and by education and sedatives)
to try `to reduce their apprehension'
and psychomotor activity. If they are
afraid of a stroke, tell them that the
chances are five to six to one that
they will not have a stroke."
Many things are blamed for vas.
eular diseases but most of them arq
beyond our control. Dr. Oille say
that at least we can have removed ou
focal infections, we can try to avoi i
fatigue and mental strain, by bean
satisfied with the ordinary things o
life, curbing our ambitions in th
struggle of life, and getting nine a
ten hours' sleep at night. We shoul
cultivate an equanimity of life an
go about our work without hurry,
worry and mental tension and learn
to say, "Wel], what does it matter;
after all?" We should exercise the
blood vessels of limbs as well as the
ones in our ,heads and learn to be
still and relax mentally as well at;
physically.
Yes, take it easy, don't worry — i1
is good advice even for those who
are not afflicted with heart disease.
