Many eczema sufferers have failed

only 25 cents, a trial bottle of the
accepted standard eczema remedy, q
simple wash of oil of wintergreen,
thymol and glycerine, as compound

Union Service-Reports of State C. E. Convention-Metho hodist Church Ob- serves Temperance sunday-Death of John Browning

On sunday evening union service led by the Y. P. $. c. E., was held in the chapel of the First Congregational church at which reports were heard from those who attended the state Christian Endeavor convention. held two weeks ago in Waterbury.
 Frank Durr gave the programme of the meetings and spoke of the Satur- day morning service at which there was an address on visions of God ser vice, opportunity and self. We must be wise in our assistance to the so- ciai problems of the day At the open parliament, conducted by William Shaw of Boston, live questions were treated.

 George F. Hyde said: We can't tell you of the impressions made on us. the inspiration received. we are go- ing to try to live it out. I went into the church and looked for the young people, but it was full of middle e-aged people, and I asked if this was the state '. r. $. c. E convention. Chris tian Endeavor must mean something when it is backed up by such earnest men and women During the conven- tion the word Vision and the thought Vision was running through everything said and done. Vision determines largely the quality of our work and it's effectiveness.
 Thoughts gathered from the con- vention were: Get into the life in your community. Nothing developes us as something to do. God is the only influences that can reform man. God will repay those who look out for His cause. People are trying harder than ever not only to preach but to live the gospel Three things essential to spir- ituaI fellowship are unselishness. uni versal love, and a consciousness of God.
