Standard Skin Cure How many hospital patients, suffering the frightful itch,the raw scorching pain of skin disease, have een soothed to sleep by a sooth- ing fluid washed in by the nurse's hands? That Raid is the famous D. D. D. prescrip- tion for eczema. The Supervising Nurse of one of our promi- nent Catholic institutions (name of nurse and institute on application), writes regarding a patient. "The disease had eaten her eyebrows away. Her nose and lips had become disfig- ured. Since the use of D. D. D. her eyebrows are growing. her nose and face have assumed their natural expression." How many eczema sufferers are paying their doctors for regular treatment and are being treated with thie same soothing, healing fluid? Dr. Geo, T. Richardson frankly writes "D. D. D. D. Prescription—for 15 y D. D. is superior to anything I have ever found. Soft and soothing, yet a powerful agent." To do the work. D. D. D. Prescription must bo applied according to directions given in the pamphlet around every bottle. Follow those directions—and see! And it certainly takes away the itch at once —the moment the liquid is applied. The skin is soothed—calmed—so thoroughly refreshed— delightfully cooled. All druggists of stn»ding have the famous specific as well as the efficient D. D. D. Skin Soap. But we are so confident of the merits of this prescription that wo will refund the purchase price of the first full size bottle if it fails to x each your case. You alone are to judge. J. J.

McGee, Waycross, Ga., says: "I had a very heavy cold which settled into a chronic cough which kept me awake nights for fully two years, and felt tired all the time The effect of taking your cod liver and Iron remedy, Vinol, is that my cough is gone. 1 can ;low get a good night's rest and I feel much stronger in every way. 1 am 74 years old."

(From The Financial Poet) When Canadian joint stock com- panies can furnish such excellent an nual financial statements as that re- cently presented to the shareholder* of Sherwin-Williams Paint Co., of Canada, little encouragement is afford- ed the croakers. We hear, these days, a great deal about dull times, the scarcity of liquid capital and the dif- ficulty certain corporations are having to keep their heads above water. Un- doubtedly a great deal of this is true. It ieelifficult to rehabituate the confl• deuce of the public which seems to have drawn itself into its shell. To the capacity of the investor there is a limit, But whether the limit bar been reached, or whether it le merely absence of confidence, is an open ques- tion. Nevertheless the fact remains that those companies whose financial poli• tion is sound are not complaining. In fact, quite the contrary is the caee Such well-managed corporations, a► for instance, the Sherwin-Williams Co., f+sr from complaining, are making increased profits for their proprietors. All of which goes to show that evert if some few companies are shaky there is no need forOanadians to call]"wolf," For although quiet times are upon us, Canadian business is in a good way to I weather the storm. Anyway the worst is over. So say those best qualified to epeak. The re- ception accorded the City of Montreal loan this week in London when the en- tire issue was quickly taken by the public, is in itself significant, when contrasted with the reception accord- ed the last city loan offered a short time ago. It was 66% left on the underwriters' hands. Financial houses in Montreal have been more than de- lighted with the reception the present issue received and it is taken to indi- cate a change for the better in the at- titude of the British investor towards Canadian municipals. If this were not convincing enotigh we have the opinion of many eminent gentlemen both in Eogland and Cana- da, who have assured the public through interviews given to the Press that the worst is now over and easier monetary conditions may soon be look- ed for. $652 85 This is an increase in receipts over 1912 of $197,43, but the sheriff called attention to the important fact that : "It is to be regretted that the muni cipalitieeof Huron, as a whole, in view of the very beneficial results attained by our very efficient Co. Agent, in the rescue work of children of the County, do not take a more liberal view in as- sisting the good work. Out of the 26 municipalities in the County only six made direct contributions during the year. As this very necessary work has to be kept going by voluntary con- tributions, it is to be hoped there will be a more liberal response during the coming year, from this source." In moving the adoption of this re- port Crown Attorney Seeger spoke of the benefits of the work and the great saving from an economic standpoint. The expenses for the administration o justice was a very heavy item for both the County and the Province, but ow- ing to the work of the Children': Aid" Society not a single ;apse had been brough+."!tefare him in the past year under the Juvenile Act, No money was better spent than in this work, and no greater saving effected than in rescuing and helping children who otherwise would be possible offenders against the law and ultimately cri- mingle. The secretary, Rev. John Pollock, made a short verbal statement regard- ing the importance of the work, and then Dr, Strang, on behalf of the nominating committee, made a report prefixed by a statement commending the work done and recommending the election for another year of the officers of 1913, viz: Hon. Pres.—His Honor Judge Doyle. President—James Mitchell, Goder- ich. Secretary—Rev. John Pollock. Treas.—Sheriff Reynolde. This recomniendation, seconded by Mr. A. M. Robertson, was adopted, and then County Agent G. M. Elliott made an interesting report from which we glean the following : — "During our second year, since last Novemb'r, 22 children have been made warde of the society. In dealing with the different cases we have tried to act wisely, and we have now no cause to regret hasty action. If we have er- red it has been on the side of leniency. 13 of these children are placed in good homes, 7 of the 13 are permanently placed in homes that are all that could be desired; 4 are placed with relatives under agreement; 2 aro working for wages ; one has been given to parents on probation ; two are still in the shel- ter. I do not wish to paint any dark pictures regarding the former condi- tion of these children, but I know some of thein who were in a fair way for getting into the criminal class, are now doing well in good homes. Figures mean 'very little work. I will, however, give you in figures a synopsis of the work done during the year: Complaints received and investigat- ed 75. No. of children affected by investi- gations 170, Letters received 457. Lettere sent out 780. Meetings attender?in the interests of the work 80. 'Visite made 801. Inter- views 459.

If you suffer from any form of Rheu- matism, remember that RHEUMA goes to work quickly to remove the cause, not simply to relieve the dis- tress,,, l.2,,ree yearn use has demon- ntrkted that it goes to the seat of the disease and expels the poisonous mat- ter through the natural channels — the kidneys, bowels, liver and skin. "Far many years I was troubled with Rheumatism, also with Bright's Dis- ease of the Kidneys. I suffered awful- ly. Tried many advertised remedies, After using your truly remarkable preparation, RHEUMA, I was fully cured."—Prof. C. T. Budlong, Sound View, Conn. RHEUMA is guaranteed by J. W, McKibbon„ who sells it for 50 cents a bottle. In Memory Of "Ernest iedward Simmons Who Departed This Life Nov. 25, 1912. Gone, but not forgotten, Comrade, Though in another sphere ; And we think of you so oft, Juet as we knew you here. The morn with you, it quickly waned And the evening belle they tolled ; Do the bells ring in Heaven, Brother, When the Pearly Gates unfold ? Do yon march the streets of Glory And sing as in the days of yore ? Yes, you sing with greater sweetness Than you ever sang before 1 And the music, with no discord, It will you with rapture fill. Yee, there may be shadows In the valley, But there is sunlight on the Hill. Do you think of little Mother With her precious babes jest four ? Though her heart is filled with sadness Since you left for Canaan's shore. Yet she is praying, trusting; hoping, Knowing that one day she will find Though there are shadows in the valley, There is sunlight on the Hill. Then let us wipe our tears away, Though our hearts are sorely riven ; Another gem shines in the Saviour's crown, Another soul in Heaven. May the goo Lord look from Heave n down, Little Mother's heart with courage fill, she has passed through valley's shadows To the Sunlight on the Hill. Maurice It, Beckwith.

That one-tenth to one- seventh of the deaths in Ontario are due to the ravages of Consumption. and that there is a death from this disease every four hours in the year, are among the startling facts contain. ed in the summary of facts now being sent out to Teachers and Clerywen of the Dominion by the National Saniter iutn Association. The outlines of addresses in which the statistics occur are for use in the schools and churches on the occasion of the Annual Tuberculosis Day exer- cises, on Friday, Nov, 28, and Sunday Nov, 30. The thetof these days is set apart for eehool propaganda and the other is the Annual Tuberculosis Sun- d y. The Outline shows 2250 deaths in a year in Ontario, one-third of which are of persons between the ages of 18 and 45. Huron County Statistics.

Cranberry marmalade is excellent served with meat. Wash three quarts of cranberries, cover with water and cook until the berries are tender. Press through a sieve and add to this juice pulp six cups sugar, two pounds of seeded and chopped r aisine, and four oranges. The oranges should be minced fine and the seeds picked out. Cook until thick and turn into glass jars. Apple omelet is considered very fine when made in this manner: Stew six large apples ; beat very smooth while hot, adding one tablespoonful of butter six tablespoonfuls of sugar, a grating of nutmeg, and one-half teaspoonful of extract. When entirely cold:add four eggs beaten very light whites and yolks separately. First add the yolks, then the whites and put in a deep dish which has been warmed and buttered. Bake in'a moderate oven to a delicate brown. Eggs and asparagus give variety to our morning meal. Boil until tender a bunch of asparagus, then cut off the tender tops and lay tbem in a deep plate, seasoning well with butter, salt, pepper, sugar ; beat tbree eggs, whites and yolks separately, to a stiff froth ; add two tablespoonfuls of milk, a tablespoonful of warm butter with salt and pepper to taste, pour this evenly over the asparagus and bake until eggs are set. On Back. Of Mail Matter, Christmas "Seale" may be used, says Postmaster -General. So long as they are unlike postage stamps In design, and are placed on the backe of letters, Christmas Seals—they aren't 'Stamps' any longer ---will 1'e perrnieeible on mail matter. This is the effect of a flat issued by the Postmaster -General at Ottawa a day or so ago, and it will set at rest many doubts which arose last year when au order was promul- gated which bade fair to destroy one of the best sources of revenue open to Charitable Organizations in O enada, Several philanthropic bodies use the little Seale, the best known of them being the National Sanitarium Association, which converts the pro- ceeds to the Muskoka Free Hospital for Cousumptiuee. In compliance with the r equest for a design which will not confuse Mail Clerks, this Association has had a new Seal made to take the place of the well known Santa Claus in green red. This year's design shows a mediaeval Knight in full armour, with double crone shield on hie arm and on the band which encloses the picture appears the words "The White Crusader." The first supply of the Seals will number three million and the enthusiasm with which schools and private concerns are taking up the work of distribution forcaste that this inexpensive and un- obstrusive form of Christmas giving will thie Christmas exceed all previous records.
