8. Common baking soda, says an e1-
change, is the best Of all remedies in cases
of scalds and burns. It may be used on
the surface Of the burned place either dry
or wet. When applied promptly, the
sense of relief is magical. It seems to
withdraw the heat and with it the pain,
and the healing process soon commences.
It is the best application for eruptions
caused by poisonous ivy and other pois-
onous plants, as also for bites and stings
Of insects.
Our dispositions should be hopeful
rather than morose and desponding. II
there is bright side to a dark object, let
us find it, if possible, and make the most
Of it. Some people pass through life with

church; it wants fostering-then it can
reflect credit on its location. Take your
County paper. It gives you more news
Of immediate interest than News York or
other papers; 1t talks for you when other
localities belle you; it stands up for your
rights; you always have companion in
your County paper, and those who stand
up for you should certainly be we'll sus-
tanned. Your interests are kindred and
equal, and you must rise or fall together.
Therefore, it is to your interest to support
your County paper; not grudgingly, but
