| boro Ph9Hir concerning the ordination
OF Rev. W. 7. Sparhawk:-
"The religious work in this community
having recently been stimulated by the
advent OF two new ministers, il is fitting
1 that the public should be informed con.
I corning their qualifications and their eX.
| periences. Rev. Willis T. sparhsWk OF
the Congregational church, who was or
dained to the work OF the gospel ministry
June %, was born IN West Randolph. His
grandfather, Rev. Samuel Sparhawk, was
a minister OF rare ability and success, and
the Congregational meeting house at West
Randolph was built as a result OF his la
bers.

church at Templeton, Mass, for nearly
half a century.

A minister who was present al the ordi.
nation Of Mr.. SparhaWk writes The eN-
animation Of the candidate continued for
nearly an hour and three-qusrters, the
length, however, being determined rather
by Mr.. Sparhawk's presentation OF reli.
gious belief than by the questioning OF the
council. though this was by no means su-
pertiCial Mr.. Spsrhawk presented first
statement OF religious truth, which he
called his working creed. This was
supplemented by a more elaborate paper
which showed the breadth and thorough
ness OF the studies which the candidate
had pursued, the conscientious intention
to think out for himself the truths he &C
cepted, and a hearty loyalty to Christ
and his word as the way, the truth and
the life
At the conclusion OF the examination
the moderator OF the council, Rev. q. F.
Chaplin OF Saxton's River, expressed him
self as highly pleased with the full and
clear statement OF religious views which I
had been presented and said that II was a
source of satisfaction to have part in the I
ordination OF one who was evidently so I
well equipped for the work before him.
The decision Of the council In private 1
session was emphatics lily "summa cum 4

A Word About Glycerine.

Since SO many people use pure glyc-
crime for the skin. word of caution
seems necessary. If you apply little
glycerine to the tip Of your tongue you
will find that, although it has pleas
ant, sweet taste, the first sensation
that is felt is one of pain and burning.
This is caused by the fact that glycer-
inc has strong affinity for water, and
that it absorbs all the moisture from
the surface which it touches, thus dry
ing up and parching the nerves. 1g-
norant of this fact, nurses and moth
ers have applied pure glycerine to the
chafed skin of infants. producing. Oft
en-. great pain. The glycerine ought to
have been at first mixed with an equal
bulk Of water. This being done, it
may be applied to the most tender SURF
faces without producing injury, and, as
1t does not dry UP, 1t virtually main
tains the part in a constantly moist
condition. excluding the air and pro-
noting the healing process.

In the face of her evident unwilling
