BUDGET HELD HOPEFUL,

LONDON, April 20 Up. Maiorftv
opinion on the national governments s
budget introduced in the House of
Commons yesterday by Neville Cham
berlain, chancellor of the excheouer.
today appeared summed up in the
words of one prominent conservative
industrialist who described 1t as deep
ly disappointing, but not dishearten-
ing--inconclusive, but In some respects
hopeful"
Liberal opinion, on the whole. treated
the budget favorably. although Nal
GWyllm Lloyd George, son of the for
mef leader OF the party, described it
as one OF the worst budgets in recent
years.
Other free-trade Liberals EXPRESSED
themselves as thankful for small mer-
cles, and commended the impartiality
OF the chancellor in granting no one
relief because he could not ameliorets
the condition of the UNEMPLOYED and
otner chief sufferers from the govern
ment economy program.
Laborites to Meet.
Comment from the Labor group WAS
confined to disapproval of the proposed
tax on tea. which James Maxton fierv
Left Wing member, described as worse
than the continued extra tax on beer
The Laborites will hold a meeting to-
morrow to discuss the budget,
George Lansbury, Laborite leader
speaking apparently for himself rather
IMAM ior MS party, said the budget
marked the failure of the national gov
ernment and was "a terrible message
destitute and hard pressed"
Brewers hnar rri,,Lar, -
tax payers expressed some indignation
that their lot was not made easier.
The brewers said continuation of the
extra tax on their product was bad. not
only Tor business, but for revenue as
well. IN tnat 1t reduced consumption
to point where revenue from the
added tax fell below that obtained be-
fore the levy was boosted.
Industries Want Relief.
Officials OF the Federation of British
Industries complained vigorously against
what they described as the absence of
real relief for industry and demanded
drastic reductions in the national ex-
penditure which they held essential to
the recovery of trade.
Sugar interests said new colonial
preferences proposed in the budget
would not AFFECT the price in Great
Britain, but one wholesale tea company
said a duty on that product would
mean an immediate jump in the price.
The Stock Exchange indicated today
it looked on the new budget favorably
and prices were little affected, except
brewery shares, which were weak be-
cause OF the promise of continuing the
beer tax. Tea shares rose slightly as
result of the proposal for duty on
tea.

patient postpones treatment until

involvement of lymph nodes completely

porarily in the guise of beauty, though
it is often the antithesis of beauty.
If you doubt it, look at the fashion,
plate of yesterday, or notice today's
display of fox-fur dress trimmings on
torrid day in July. Even the woman
OF beautiful tastes succumbs occas-
sionally to certain epidemics of un-
suitability, but she, is more immune
than most At least she adjusts her
furs to the thermometer! To certain
degree the woman who is really chic is
little different. not different in being
behind in fashion, but always slightly
apart from it. Because of this per-
Sonal adjustment to her normal sense
of suitability, she never would wear an
evening dress to market-no matter
how lovely the dress might have looked
in a ball room the evening before.
Suitability to age and outline Is
obvious-or at least it should be.

OUR CHILDREN
Poison Ivy.
By ANGELO PATRI.

THE poison ivy vine is no respecter
l. of persons nor places. 1t climbs
over Stonewall and hedge. 1t turks
in the grass and it snuggles at the
foot of old trees and gray boulders.
It is beautiful and it is dangerous.
The children should be warned
against it and taught how to avoid
its mean effects
You can tell the vine by its three
pointed, shiny leaves. In the Spring
they are usually tinted with reddish
bronze. The vines have many little
feet that cling to the stones and in
the Fall the old plants have punches
of waxy berries that are pretty and
inviting No wise child ever goes near
them.
I tried for long time to find a
remedy for the itching rash this poi
sonous vine brought out on the face
and hands. or anywhere else 1t could
reach, but without success. Once,
about two Springs ago, wrote TINS
protest and warning in the hope OF
saving some of the victims. A New
England man wrote to me saying that
he had simple and effective cure
for the rash. A very cheap and handy
one at that. Brown soap.
1 smiled at the brown soap idea.
Surely if all the treatment the physi-
clans had offered failed brown soap
was not going to help much. Then one
of the children got dose of poison
ivy on legs and arms. The prescribed
remedies were not helping and I re-
membered the brown soap. I read
the letter again.
Take common brown soap. Dip IL
in hot water until it melts some. Rub
it on the affected parts. Cover every
sign of the rash with a coating of the
soap. If it itches or burns put on
more soap" did just that and the
rash cured up very promptly.
The letter went on to say, when
you have been exposed to the poison
ivy wash yourself on all exposed parts
with common brown soap and hot
water. Scrub well. Let the suds dry.
Don't wipe them off. Then apply
places. That will prevent any trouble"
And it does.
Lately we had to uproot about a
mile of it and we did SO without any
i'll affects. Everybody who went among
the vines lathered himself with the
brown soap and only once did one of
us get a touch of it and it Welded
promptly to the soap. I am passing
along the word so that if YOU find
yourself IN need OF remedy for poi
son ivy this Summer you have It, 1t
cannot do any harm and it may do a
lot OF good. Many happy Summer
has been spoiled by this noxious weedy
vine, SO beautiful and SO bad.
Poison ivy is not dangerous, but it
is irritating in the extreme. 1t drives
children into scratching and the
scratching is likely to bring about an
infection. Then, too, If the skin is
broken by an insect bite and the child
gets the poison ivy rash the infection
that results is likely to give a lot of
trouble. 1t is easier to prevent these
difficulties than it is to suffer them.

snowy corolla, with plenty of nectar
| and a goodly supply of pollen.
OF course, the wild strawberries were
for the birds. insects and the many
creatures of the fields. Who has not
seen a turtle with its face all covered
with berry juice?
The wild strawberry has five petals
which form little cup that protects
the anthers and pistilS. Each petal is
narrowed down to little claw. The
anthers are wee. fiat disks when the
blossom first opens. They cling to-
gether in pairs, as if afraid some one
would take their precious gold dust
from them. In the center stands a
yellowish-green cone consisting of
many pistils packed together, each
holding tiny circular stigma, eager
to catch the pollen brought to it. If
little is received, the berry tells the
talS
The baby leaves are folded length
wise. and the three leaflets are pressed
| tightly together They open on their
downy, red stems into deeply-toothed
dark green leaves. In the Fall they
turn a wine color
| As the strawberry ripens, the stamens
| and petals wither and drop to the
! ground. The green calyx is the hull
/ which swell and ripen into the luscious
| fruit. The berry is f1eshy fruit, and
| in its shallow pits are the tiny seeds,
| which we eat. Each one is really a
nut, almond-shaped, with a tough shell
and enough starchy meat to support
another plant 1t is the planting of
these seeds that gives us the new va
| rieties.
This is one of our walking plants,
! and in a year it makes some strides.
| When new plant IS wanted, the
| fresh looking roots are used. The
/ runners take much strength from the
| plant, and for this reason they are cut
| away.
Dry banks, woodlands and fields in
| April and until June are covered with
| the white flowers and red fruit. The
flower opens in a series, and there are
green fruit and ripe flowers and buds
| on the plant at one time
You may find this delicious little
berry from New Brunswick to the Gulf
| of Mexico and westward to Dakota.
When cultivated, the blossom has many
more petals and the fruit is much
larger.

All this Jimmy Skunk knows well.
So If he finds nest he may not bother

he digs it out and feasts on the full

which have not yet left the nusery cells

joined the family he led them to the
far corner of Farmer Browns garden.
In the grass just under the fence,
where the ground was raised a little,
he showed them a little hole.
When they had gathered around he
had them smell of that little hole in
the ground so that they would know
that smell when they should encounter
it again. Then he went to work with
his sharp claws and dug open the
ground around the little hole. He un-
covered a paper nest. big one, from
which came an angry humming, to
which he paid no attention at all. He
tore open that nest and it was full of
yellow jackets humming and crawling
about. but not able to do anything else

to hum or to crawl.
