"POISON OAK" TIME IS HERE
A Simple Remedy Has Been Found, How
ever, Which Stops the Itch.

Poison oak can now be cured quite
easily.
A simple liquid wash, composed
mostly of oil of wintergreen, combined
with other healing ingredients, has
been used with good deal of success.
This remedy d. d. d. Prescription,
became known first because of the
cures it accomplished in eczema and
other diseases of the same general
nature.
When used for "Poison Oak" it dries
up the wstery postules, drives away
the red, flaming spots, and returns the
skin to its normal condition.
The itch stops instantly.
We vouch for the great eczema rem.
edy, d. d. d. Prescription, and would
certainly not recommend it for "poison
oak" if we did not know what it would
do. A trial bottle only 25c.

ORIGINAL VERSE
The Conquror. Love.

We may think to conquer evil
BY the force OF mighty Wills
But the strength that binds the shackles
Oft the heaven-born spirit kills
Love alone viii conquer evil;
= Love that glories mere creeds
BY irnpellinR nerve and sinew --
To the sacrificing deeds.
Love that scorns to gain one atom
That might injure brother man.
Though its giving up would make one
Neermost In the conQuering van
Love that looks into the future
BY vision of the past
And in looking sees tomorrow.
But to-days foreshadow cast
Love that knows to-morrow's letters.
Link by link We bind to-day,
And by compromise with satan
Ours and future lives pray
Future lives that had stem'd It.
Stem'd the cruel sefloves tide
Would have raised a paean exultant
Such those have lived abide.
Yesterday to-day. forever.
Since Gods love and life are one,
And they linked our lives with heaven
Ere celestial life won
Think Of that, loves mighty vision,
Ere you grasp your boarded gold.
Ere you find your heavenly birthright
For a mess OF pottage sold
Ere you circumstance that future.
BY your stumbling blocks of gain:
And by false-promoting actions
Link some soul to satan's chain.
Love alone will conquer evil.
BY the Chrtst-like life to-day;
Love that glorihes the Master
For the work and in the play.
Love that holds aloft his banner.

A SANE CHRISTMAS,

Contemporaries are pleading for sans
Christmas A few months ago We joined them
in pleading for a sane Fourth Of July.
But the two days are not analogous. sane
Fourth means the elimination of the dangerous
and deadly explosive that added nothing to the
sentiment and spirit of the day. and the
preston of It's patriotic sentiments in sane and
safe ways
One may eliminate the fireworks and explo-
sves that have characterized the Christmas
season and yet be far from observing the day
in an appropriate fashion.
We shall never return to a sensible observance
OF the Christmas season until find sufficient
courage and independence to reform the ex-
pensive, extravagant and inappropriate Gus
toms that have come to control its observance.
The great majority OF people have been caught
in the maestrom of compulsory and extrav-
agant giving and few indeed are they who are
strong enough to defy common custom and deny
the demands Of their households in the expen-
sive and unjustifable fashion OF the season The
result is that the Christmas time leaves thou
sands with depleted pocketbooks If not bur
dened with debts which they were In no wise
able to incur.
When learn to make giving expressive OF
good will instead of reluctant and supposed
obligation. and when we learn to make ability
I the measure of giving then will we upon the
material side have found the secret of a SANE
Christmas So long as we submit to the pres
sure that compes to overreach ability II

OF the season has been lost because Christina

l listened to two instructive sermons the last

Remember how humbly. zealously seriously
thou didst receive the grace Of God once and
hear His word: and hold fast. The grace thou
hast received: and repent According to tho
word thou hast heard the things which remain.
