WE DO IT RIGHT, AND AT REASONABLE PRICES. THE MISSION TO CYPRUS Acts 12:25:13:12—Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D. Foreign missions is a genuine romance and there is always an abun dance of thrills in its study, whether you go back to the Acts or turn to events in modern history. Antioch had become a new and larger center of Christian activity, but the home church at Jerusalem was :iot neglected. The apostles had agreed to gather funds for the poor saints of the .mother church and the friends in Antioch send such an offering by Barnabas and Saul. Some months previously Saul had been called from Tarsus by Barnabas to help in the growing work in Antioch. At Jerusalem they met John Mark, probably the young man who drew the sword in the garden of Gethsemane in defense of Jesus, and brought him with them to Antioch. Christianity always has an outreach and ceases to be Christian when only self is considered. While in prayer in the Antioch church the needs of others are being considered and, through the Holy Spirit, there is a definite call for Barnabas and Saul to undertake a preaching mission in Cyprus, an island some distance off the coast. The call is accepted and John Mark is taken along as a general helper. Preaching begins at the first port and the messages are continued until they reach the further side of the island. At Paphos they had an audience with Sergius Paulus, the governor. As the truth is pro claimed, Elymas, the sorcerer, is greatly disturbed, for if what these messengers declare is accepted by the governor the magician will lose his pull at, cpurt. An outcry is made by Elymas which is replied to in most forc$fyl language by Saul and blindness is the penalty for his presumptipn to seek to stay the progress of the gospel. Such evidences are not to be denied and Sergius makes open confession of his faith. Preaching services at St. Stephens Episcopal Church, Willington, are as follows: Every 1st, 3rd and 5th Sunday at 4 o’clock p. m. REV. A. R. STUART, Minister.

Times are “tight”—there’s no doubt of that— but the way to make your business more profitable is to do more business and get your profits from the volume. Advertising helps you get the volume, and newspaper advertising is the cheapest and best way to reach those who are likely to need what you have for sale. Let us show you the pictures and help you prepare an adv. that will attract customers to your place of business. We have pictures and copy to fit anv and every need and urge vou to let us help you get some of the business not now coming your wav. Phone 58, or call in person and let’s get business comin? vour wav. Then, if you have need of anv kind of ffood commercial printing, we are ready to do that for vou, too, in stvle and at prices that will please the most fastidious. A small boy isn’t worth a cent that doesn’t try to c’imb tho shade tree in the rear lawn once in awhile. Naturally he may fall in his effort to get somewhere that he doesn’t belong. He may tumble from his tricycle in an unusual spurt of speed. He cuts his scalp; it bleeds something fierce; he runs to mamma howling for first aid. Don’t fear fracture of the skull from a trifling injury. Don’t fear bleeding to death. Wash the wound with clean soap and warm water, using clean things always. DON’T POUR PEROXIDE IN A SCALP WOUND at ahv period. After washing as above, paint the wound with tincture of iodine; smarts a little, but apply it freely. Dust freely with talcum powder and apply a loose bandage. Keep the wound dry until recovery. For a “crop” of chiggers,'get at ’em early as possible, before they have bored in deeply. First a scrubbing with good soap and water; dry and apply the bug-i-cide, whatever you have. I use a mixture of car bolic acid, one drr.m, spirits camphor, one ounce, menthol twenty grains, and rose-water, enough to make four ounces. This can be daubed over the lesions freely, allowing it to dry without v/iping off. Sunburn is not to be sneezed at—It has been accompanied by big doses of the ultra-violet ray—a blessing in disguise. The oxide of zinc, a dram to the ounce of rose-water ointment will sooth the inflamed skin in time. Keep out of the fierce sunlight until well. For a child’s “busted toe,” bruised, torn and bleeding, soak the foot in water with a teaspoonful of carbolic acid—or formalin—to the pint. Make the member clean. Then apply soft dressing of car- bolized or borated vaseline and wrap comfortably. And, O, green apples! Colic! A big dose of milk of magnesia quick. Who would object to fifteen drops of paragoric for the pain?

You run acrcss all sorts of surprises in the course of a business week. For instance, the vice-president of a big chain stove organization was oiling me a business story. And what do you suppose be based it on? .he Bible. He has charge of the company’s personnel. It is a job to sort over i hundred young fellows in order to find the one who will start at mall wages, work long hours, and fight his way up to the top. The prizes are big, but the battle is hard, and only the toughest urvive. The part cf the Eible to which the vice-president referred was the ■’ceding cf the Five Thousand. Five thousand tired and hungry peo- )!e. The Lord said, “Feed them.” His disciples, who were practical men, were aghast. “We can’t do t/’ they protested. “It would take too much money.” Others urged: “Send them away.” Finally a bey was discovered in the crowd with five small loaves and two fishes. Said my friend: “All they.^had to work with was what that boy had.” “So with our company,” he continued. “It’s one of the leaders, yet here isn’t a really brilliant man in it. We’ve all come up from the ranks. “We can get money to do anything that we need; but money alone won’t do it. “We can get materials and equipment. “But all we really have to work with is what our four thousand boys have. They are going to decide what this business will be in years to come.” When we had this conversation business was booming and all big industries were employing more people. Since then we have had a heart-breaking period of unemployment. But, good times or bad times, the search for ability goes on. At the bottom of the depression the president of one great industry asked me if I knew where he could find a twenty-five-thousand-dollar man. The president of another said: “We have installed a system of com pulsory pensions. We must make sure that this business will con- tinue In the future to be run by young men.” The size and the setup of businesses change, but their message to youth is just the s$me: “Come on with your five loaves and two fishes. All we have to go on is what you boys have.” McCormick Holiness Church Scheduh McCormick —• Preaching servic* Saturday night before 3rd Sunday a S o’clock; third Sunday morning 10:30 o’clock and third Sunday night at 8 o’clock.
