II Sam. 12:13, 14. "And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the Lord. And Nathan said unto David, The Lord also hath 'put away thy sin; thou shalt not die". Swift upon the heart repent- ance of the king came the message of God's forgiveness. But the re- sult; of that transgression meant not only the death of the child, but also that the sword would never de- part from the House of David. A Penitent Cry Ps. 51:1. "Have mercy upon me, 0 God, according to Thy loving- kindness: according unto the multi- tude of Thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions”. This is prob- ably the cry of David after he had realized the enormity of his sin against God. Ps. 51:2. "Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin". He speaks of “trans- gressions", "iniquity", and "sin". He seeks to find words adequate to II Sam. 12:9. "Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in His sight"? Nathan charged the king with conduct quite unworthy of a king who had been anointed to the high office to rule the people in the fear of God. II Sam. 12:13. The sad account of David's sin throws a dark cloud over an otherwise noble life. His illicit love for the wife of Uriah led him along the path of treachery and murder. The Prophet of God is sent to David. The parable of the one ewe lamb of the.poor man, taken by the rich man, and slain, was told to David by Nathan, the Prophet. When David heard the story, he was greatly angry, and said that the man who had done such a thing shall surely die. The Prophet looked the king straight in the face, and said, "Thou art the man". «fig GOLDEN TEXT "confess your faults one to an- other, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed" (James 5:16). ll Sam. 12: 13, 14; Ps. 51: 1-3, 9-13; 32:5.

"Cast me not away from Thy presence; and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me". Al- though he has been unworthy in his stewardship, and unfaithful in his duties, yet he calls upon God not to utterly reject him. What a sad condition to be a castaway, home- less, godless, friendless-"cast me not away"; "Take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.'" Then assuredly, he must have felt the convicting, constraining, compelling power of the Spirit of God. He was still a son, however disobedient and sin- ful in his life, and he pleads that the gracious Spirit may continue the work in the inner recesses of his being. Renewal of Spirit - Ps. 51:10. "Create in me a clean heart, 0 God; and renew a right spirit with- in me". Cleanness of heart and re- newal of spirit are intertwined. If there is cleanness of heart, then there follows as a result, renewal of spirit. The heart of man-that inner center of thought and will and purpose, where decisions are made, and where plans are com- pleted, long before the light of day breaks upon them! Remission of Sins - Ps. 51 :9. "Hide Thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities". This is the reason why the Lord Jesus came into the world. He came to deal with the "sin" question, and on the Cross He settled that ques- tion forever for all who believe. The face of the Father was avert- ed from the Son as He was hang- ing there on the Tree-the guilt- less One dying in the stead of the guilty. A Personal Confession-Ps. 51:3. "For I acknowledge my transgres- sions; and my sin is ever before me". Like a specter that haunts the guilty conscience, his sin was before his eyes. Deep into his soul was burned the thought of his de- parture from God, as well as his disservice to the nation, and his breach upon the family life of poor Uriah. The tages of the Scrip- tures resound with similar cries of confession and repentance. express his 1rb11orrence of the black deeds he had committed. He is indeed humbled in the dust in the revelation and contemplation of what he had done: His prayer is for a real and radical change. He cries out for a "thorough" cleans- ing. No half measures will do. There must be a deep work of grace in his heart and life, so that all the pollution of his sin Will be wiped away.

Follow with a cold rinse. Secondly, make it a daily habit to give yourself the "six- minute makeup treatment" with the aid of the new Three- Purpose cream that is at once a cleansing cream, foundation base for powder and a skin cream. Wrinkles on the brow require more vigorous treatment. Smooth a course with the finger tips along the lines of the wrinkles, from the centre of the brow to the temples. Do this frequently during the day. At night massage with cream in the same way. Here are some specific hints if you already have wrinkles: For the skin about the eyes and on the temples, take a dab of Three-Pur- pose cream and pat it in very gent- ly with the finger-tips, working outwards. .AWAY WITH WRINKLES! It is easier to avoid wrinkles than to eradicate them. So many women defer proper skin care un- til lines actually appear. Begin early by taking regular care of your skin. A few minutes each day will accomplish wonders! The Secrets Eu: Goat? looks “you bvsous. ttttes:.. " Woman's Page She bandaged his burned face and hands with soft clean cotton soaked in the oil.

His wife came hurriedly down'" the stairs, dressed in carpet slip-, pers, a nightgown reaching nearly) to her ankles and a bedjacket worn but spotless. Her hair, in papers, was crowned by a nightcap. "God save us, George!" she exclaimed, "are ye killed ?" She was very much excited. "What ever happen- ed ye ?" she sobbed. "Stove blew up; send for the firemen," he answered. Mary telephoned to the tire sta- tion and also for the doctor. After he had dressed, run a comb through his hair and lit his pipe, George went down stairs, added some coal to the cookstove fire in the kitchen, put on the kettle, the cooked porridge from the night be- fore and set the spider, as he call- ed the frying-pan beside them to warm up. ' He set the table for two and secured a few eggs and a rasher of bacon from the refriger- ator and added a loaf of bread. The coffee pot was placed at hand. Then he approached the stove to see if the kettle was boiling. As he did this the whole top of the stove seemed to arise to the ceiling. He was burned and scalded; a stove lid caught him on the head; he was choked with ashes and smoke. The curtains and other inflammatory articles in the kitchen caught fire and Georgie, dazed and in pain, staggered to the hallway, fell against the stairpost and sank in a heap on the floor. That Monday morning for the first time, perhaps in 30 years, the whistle of the big flouring mills of the Maple Leaf Company failed to function. George Milady, the chief engineer of the mill since its erection, pursued the same routine as he had followed ever since the children had grown up, married and scattered. Every week-day morning he got up at a quarter to 5, leaving his wife Mary, to enjoy her sleep. On Sundays she was up first and oft to early mass while George slept in. Dainty and cool prints to finish out the summer look as fresh as the proverbial daisy.

Ham and Celery Loaf 1 package lime, flavoured Jelly SUBSTANTIAL SUMMER SALADS By: Katharine Baker Though salads are popular and necessary to our diet all year round, they reach the height of their usefulness during the sum- mer. It is now, because of the availability of salad ingredients, the ease with which they can be prepared and served, that they take first place in summer meals. Moulded salads are particularly ab. tractive looking and lend an air of festivity to the simple meal. Prac- tical because they can be made hours ahead of serving time and economical because the scantiest left-overs can be combined in them, there is a spot in any meal for a jellied salad, whether lunch, din- ner, supper or a picnic. scald. It is made by mixing equal parts of linseed (or olive oil) and limewater. It is useful in emer- gency but not for a permanent dressing. By this time the firemen had arrived and soon put out the tire. Presently the doctor arrived. He looked George over. "Broken arm." he said. "Hospital for you my boy." He sent for the ambul- ance. "I'11 be back in a day or two," said George to his weeping wife. He was back in six weeks with his arm in a sling. 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup cooked ham, finely chopped 1% cups celery, finely chopped 1 tablespoon onion, scraped or powder 1% cups warm water 1/, cup vinegar Recipes Man is always the source of the infection either by direct or indi- rect contact - indirect through water, milk, products, oysters and other foods as well as through the medium of flies, fingers, clothing and bedding. The commonest source is contaminated water. Faecal matter ultimately finds its way to water and most water courses draining inhabited areas are thus contaminated. Milk-borne typhoid is always due to the use of raw milk and there is no other single measure which acts as so sure a preventive as pas- teurization when properly carried out. There is no recorded instance Hygienic measures, such as the protection of water and milk sup- plies have caused typhoid fever in well-protected cities to be an al- most disappearing disease. The older generation of doctors saw lots of it in their student days when the wards of hospitals were filled with cases at the end of summer or in the autumn. Now-a-days teach- ers in the medical schools find it difficult to round up sufficient cases to demonstrate the disease to their classes. No single measure in reducing typhoid fever on a large scale ap- proaches the effect of substituting a safe for a polluted water supply. It y0u used a focusing camera, you could get even nearer by means of the attachment. For ex- ample, with a camera focused tor For example, consider the pie- ture of the butterfly above. At a distance ot eight feet from the camera, the butterfly would be lit- tle more than a speck on the film. However, with a portrait attach- ment, the camera could be brought e1oser--An most cases, to within three feet of the subject, or le- thus giving you a much larger image. “TYPHOID FEVER" One of the dangers of drinking impure water or milk is infection from typhoid fever. The disease varies in severity from mild oases that may be missed to fatal at- tacks. It occurs all over the world and in this country is seen from June or July to October. It is some- times picked up at health resorts and is therefore. called a "vacation disease". It respects neither rich nor poor, those of rugged or in- different health and may attack persons of any age or sex. The trick, ot course, is to use a supplementary lens or "portrait at, taehment," that slips on over the camera lens. Such attachments are inexpensive, and don't let the name mislead you. They are useful not only tor close-ups ot people, but also for shots ot any fairly small subject. CLOSE-UPS of small subjects make fascinating pictures tor your album-and many snapshots of this type can be taken, even with fixed-toem, cameras, that ordi- narily must be used five, six, or eight feet from a subject. To get close-ups llke this, use fine grain film and a portrait attachment --then have just the best part of the picture enlarged, with surplus areas masked out. HEALTH eSNAPSM)T GUILD TAKING CLOSE-UP PICTURES MENU HINTS, FASHIONS, FACTS AND FEATURES In taking close-up shots, remem- ber two points: measure the COD. rect distance very carefully, and use a rather small lens opening. Also, whenever possible, use fine grain film for better enlargements. These pictures are just about as easy to take as any other kind-- and big, dramatic close-ups certain.. 1y do lend interest to your snapshot collection. 295 John van Guilder Typhoid vaccine is a useful pre- ventive. The soldiers in the last War were successfully vaccinated against typhoid. Very few cases were found amongst them. The vaccine is a valuable measure of protection to vacationers, travellers and others who may be exposed to the disease. The common house fly lives, breeds and feeds in faecal 'matter and is a common spreader of ty- phoid. The infection may come from soiled linen, blankets and other objects, it may be gained from close association with persons ill of the disease. However, the short "taking dis- tance" is just the beginning. It you get an image ot reasonable size on the film, it can be increased con- siderably when enlargements are made-especially if you use a mod- ern tine grain film. And you don't need to show the whole picture in the enlargement. You can have any surplus material at the top, bottom, or sides "masked ott," so that your picture shows only the portion ot most interest. The but- tertiy picture was enlarged in that manner, and greatly improved. of the occurrence of typhoid com- ing from properly pasteurized milk. The milk is usually contaminated on the farm from a case or a car- rier of the germ. Fresh milk pro- ducts, such as cream, butter, ice- cream, buttermilk or fresh cheese, may contain the germ and spread the disease. three and one-half feet, the correct distance would only be twenty- three inches with the attachment in use. You could thus get almost twice as close! It's mighty nice to have these boys, Should an emergency arise, It shows we are not sleeping, But acting mighty wise. It's mighty swell to watch these boys, Work without a frown, So come! Let's all salute, The homeguard of our town. -George Jennings. You've got to hand it to these boys, Who are both old and young, They're out to do their duty, Until this war is won. You’ve got to hand it to these boys, Who drill in rain or shine, For every week you’ll find each man, In his place on time. THE HOMEGUARD You’ve got to hand it to the boys, Who meet and drill each week, It shows they are courageous, It proves they are not weak.
