wednesday Evening 0SSSio'
wednesday evenings session CT the
synod was devoted to Home Missions
and the session proved one Of the
most interesting yet held, and SYNOD
took important action on the matters
which were brought to its attention.
The chairman of this committee
DIR. G. c. Carson, of Bristol, present.
ed a written report as follows:
synodieaI Home Missions.
The work OF the home missions IN
our Synod is carried on by the sew
eral Presbyteries.
There has been some progress In
the work, especially in tn ematter OF
contributions for it's report Accord
inc To the minutes of the General AS
sembly something over $4,000 mas
been given to the work during the lass
Ecclesiastic year Probably about
one-fourth Of this amount was gwen
toward assisting in building OF
churches, but approximately 70 Ter
member was given for what NAV De
technically described as local nome
missions. This marked increase in
contributions is largely the result OF
an earnest forward movement and a
systematic canvass for funds
/ -Four of cur Presbyteries have an
evangelist each, and another has prac-
tically arranged TO rome.
Some of our pastors have done ef-
feetive work in assisting the weaker
churches.
We are grateful for what has been
done, and for the aggressiy eplans on
foot, but we cannot fail to see that
the call for mere earnest laborers is
an urgent one.
4 / We recommend that our SYNOD
endorse the plan outlined by the AS
4 sembly in the last minutes by it's
permanent committee on evangelistic
work. which is an evangelist in each
Presbytery, corresponding member
also in each Presbytery, whose duty
is to keep in touch with the Assem-
bly's committee; and special services
in the churches conducted b yam au.
thorized evangelist or pastor.
2. We also recommend forward
movement for the cause of home mis-
sions in each Presbytery, especially
seeking to raise a liberal amount for
the support of 1t, along the line Of the
every member canvass, which has
been so effective for the cause Of for
eign missions.

SCALP ALL
CRUSTED OVER
With Eczema That Broke Out when
but Three Months 0Id-Burned
and Itched So She Could Not Sleep
Chance of Cure Seemed Slight.
CURE BY CUTICURA
EASY AND COMPLETE

Our little daughter, when three
months old, began TO break out on the
head and we had the best doctors to
treat her. but they did not do her any
good They said she had eczema. Her
eyes became crossed from the disease
and her scalp was a solid scale all over.
The burning and itching was so severe
that she could not rest, day or night
We had about given up all hopes when
we read an advertisement Of the CUti-
cura Remedies. We at once got & cake
Of Cuticura Soap, a box Of Cuticura Oint-
ment and one bottle Of CuticUra Resolv-
Cnt and followed directions carefully.
After the first dose Of the Cuticura Re
solvent, we used the CutlCUra Soap freely
Then she began to improve rapidly and
in two weeks the scale came of her head
and new hair began TO grow. In a very
short time she was well. Her eyes were
perfectly straight when she recovered
and have been SO ever since She Is now
sixteen years Of age and is a picture Of
health. We know the Cuticura Rene
dies cured her and have used them in
our family ever since.
We used the Cuticura Remedies
about five weeks, regularly, and then
we could not tell she had been affected
with any disease. She suffered with
burning and itching and hard. scaly.
dandrUf-lOOGng sCabs all over her head
and in places on her body. We used no
other treatments after we found out what
the CUticura Remedies would do for her.
