S Questions from readers are answereN daily v Dr. >s Cadman, president of the hurches of Christ in Americ r. Cadman seeks to answer in- quiries that appear to be representative of the trend of thought in the Y letters which he recelves Boston, Mass. Will you kindly state if you approve of this definition of the open shop adopted years ago by the Worcester branch of the National Metal Trades Assoclation and “‘practices by its r “An open shop is an industrial establishment in which there is no discrimination practiced or advocated by either the management or the em- would loyal restrict the op- citizens to work ployes which portunity of therein.” Answer.—The definition marks a gratifying advance Dpon some pre- vious attempts to define the open shop. Could it not be improved, however, if it read as follows: “An open shop f§ an industrial es- tablishment in which no discrimina- tion is practiced or advocated against workers or applicants for work on the ground of membership or non- membership in a labor union.” The latter definition seems to me to be more inclusive and workable. Friendship, Me. I take the liberty to ask your aid, for 1 have lately laid away my dear. est on earth, the pride and joy of our home, our lovely girl of 18 years. Tt is as if the ground had been cut from beneath my feet. - We had no warning and she was ill less than two hou If1c d be sure that Lucille still lives 1 could vet hope. But I cannot by searching find out od, and there is nothing in_life here to show me Pproofs of life hereafter. I am tempted to lay life and leath to Nature and to believe the grave is the end. I ask you what the strongest proof of immortality is, and also if you would advise a course of reading in connection with the Bible which would | help me. T am only 39, but T cannot live un- less T can fsel my child lives, too, Answer.—That your inexpressible sorrow tempts vou to despair of God and immortality is really ground for hope and trust in Him. Who enabled you to think of Him Parking With Peggy “There are a lot of married men who wouid still be bachelors if some one hadn't proposed another cock- *tail.” o 2 QUESTIONS PARKES CADMAN as the Father of all spirits if He did not? : Who enabled you even to conceive of immortality for your dear daugh- ter if He did not? Who implanted in you and in Lu- cille those precious experiences .of mother and child which are your cher- ished memories if He did not? Besides, everywhere you see death serving life. There is no roadside brush that does not flame forth with renewed vitality in the Springtime. Why deny to Lucille what each bursting bplb in the dark soil pos- sesses? To say that the grave is the end is to make death supreme over love and Jjustice, purity and beauty. Is this a reasonable conclusion? I entreat you to believe that He who made you capable of the sacri- ficial Jove which now causes your lllgnny will not ultimately thwart that ove. What God gave you the capacity to visuatize in reunion with your child He must have both the purpose and the power to fulfill. ven your great sorrow can be your Mount Hermon by which you can ascend, if you will, into the presence of your Master and commune with Him face to face. He is the guardian of Lucille and of myriads more. Act as though this were true. Read the Bible itself, not books gbout the Bible. The Shepherd Psalm, the fourteenth chapter of St. John's Gospel and the fifteenth chap- ter of St. Paul's first letter to the Corinthians are the best literature for vour grief. Buffalo, N. Y. A speaker in our neighborhood re- cently gave an eloquent address on church and state in which he quoted the saying of Jesus: “Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's to God the things that, are But he did not tell us what this somewhat difficult passage® meant. Will you kindly do so? Answer.—The quotation_occurs in Matthew xxii. 21, and it is some- times explained that as the coins stamped with Caesar's image were to be paid to him for tribute, so men stamped with the image of God owe to Him their loyality and devotion. But this interpretation is somewhat strained and artificial. The fact that the saying was quoted by early Christians to defend them- selves against the charge of disloy- alty to the state would seem to show that Jesus admitted its authority within its own jurisdiction. Lord Acton, one of the leading his- torians of the last century, asserts that this Scripture gave the political state a sacredness it had never en- joyed and also imposed upon it limi- tations it had never acknowledged. ‘While our Lord sanctioned the sov- ereignty of the state in civil affairs, His words must not be taken to mean that a gulf is fixed between the obli- gations of citizenship and those of religion. When rightly conceived and fulfilled these obligations are a unity. (Covyright. 1926.) AR 2, Italian Tutti Frutti. Take a large ice cream form.

Tor some reason this year seems to be a poppy year. 1 have never seen more glorious displays than some of my friends' gardens show. Now I think 1 like the simple scarlet poppies best, the sort that poets’ wax lyric about; and again nothing can compare with the beautiful double orientals. Few are the genera of plants that are found both in Arctic regions ‘and almost in the tropics. The poppies have this latitude, however; for it is not the fragile little white and pale vellow poppy a native of Iceland? And the opium poppy hails from hot, dry Syria. Tt is not, as many think, a native of China. Only in the Middle Ages did the opium poppy travel along the great trade routes from the Mediterranean lands to India and from India to Java and China and Korea. .Japan and the Philippine Islands have said to it, “So far shalt thou go and no farther,” and it is denied entrance to this land. Tens of thousands of acres of it are grown i China, though, and it forms a sinister belt all the way from Jugoslavia across Turkey, Persia, India and China, usurping good land that should be growing wheat or cotton. But for all the crimes of the opium poppy, it looks very lovely in the gaypden. The violet poppies, too, are ofPersian origin; while the gay little Shirleys are just glorifications of the corn poppy. The California poppy is only a member of the poppy family, not a true poppy, and the beautiful little golden thing has been burdened with the horrible name of Esch- scholzia—given to it, at that, by a. man supposed to be a poet as well as a botanist. MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. Sharp Eyes. : b One Mother Says This is a game which will greatly help to cultivate the power of ob- servation among young children, especially the dreamy, unobservant child. Once a week or so, I take a long walk with the little folks. I carry a note-book in which T jot down, at the dictation of the children, every living thing observed by each child. The child having the most objects to his credit is the winner of a prize. After all, it is through the powers of observation that one gets the best out of life.

To every three quarts of juice add five pounds of sugar. Boil it all together for about 10 minutes, skim until nothing rises to the surface, then take from the fire. When cool, bottle. One to two tablespoonfuls in a glass of ice-cold water is sufficient. o Peach Butter. To every pound of peachés, which should be very ripe and mellow, weighed after peeling and stoning, allow one-half a pound of sugar. Cut in small pieces and put over the fire. Let the pulp heat slowly and cook, stirring occasionally until the consist- ency of marmalade. Add sugar and cook rapidly for 15 minutes.

Meat, potatoes, bread and butter, pie and coffee? If that is your menu it is not a good one. It will satisfy your hunger, but it will not completely nourish your body. 1If such a food schedule were followed for a long time, {ll-health would be the penalty, Man can go without food for many days. He can go without certain ele- ments in his food for many months. But if he does not supply the ele- ments which are necessary .to his health, in time he will suffer. For instance, the supply of calelum which is in a grown man’s bones and teeth will last for a certain period of time, whether the food eaten supplies this mineral salt or not. But by and by his body will begin to tear out the calcium which is stored in his bones, and if he does not supply more, dis. ease wlil follow. Tuberculosis must be fought with foods rich in calcium. But, on the other hand, a baby can develop rickets (which is a disease affecting bonee development) from lack of calcium in the food in a few weeks, In the average home where meat, potatoes, bread and butter, ple and coffee are set forth as the heavy meal of the day, the potatoes are most likely peeled, then botled, the bread is made of white flour, and so is the pile crust. By peeling the po- tatoes and then boiling them, the valuable and necesshry mineral salts have been boiled out and thrown away—unless the water was saved for soup. Likewise the mineral salts and most of the vitamins were taken from the wheat grain in the process of turning it into white flour. The butter is, of course, nourishing. The fruit filling in the pie helps some, but the coffee has no nourishment except that furnished by the sugar and cream used in it. Such a diet will cause constipation. It does not con- tain enough cellulose or residue for the body to eliminate the waste normally. Unless the meat'is tough, the teeth will not be called on to do much work on such a dinner. Tt is full of starch furnished by the potatoes, bread and ple. Starch is the very food which need the saliva of the mouth to ald in its digestio But the Best Medicine. potatoes, bread and ple, being soft, tempt one to take a bite and then a swallow. - The teeth and gums loaf- ing on the job suffer through lack of exercise. The flow of saliva is restricted by the lack of chewing, and the diner suffers from “indiges- tion.” Unless some of the other meals furnish the whole grains, the fresh fruits and vegetables which contain the absolutely essential mineral saits and vitamins, without which health cannot be maintained, disaster will follow’a diet whose mainstay is meat, potatoes, bread, pie and coffee.

' Answer—Artificlally made buttermilk, like zoolak, fer- milac, etc., has the same food value as fresh milk. Real buttermilk, made in churning fresh milk into butter, of course, has the butterfat removed, but still has great food value. Many people find buttermilk more digestible than fresh milk, A. B.

Entomologists generally assure us that spiders are innocuous little friends and seldom or never bite any- body, or if they do absent mindedly bite somebody it is harmless. Yet some 150 cases of spider bite poison- ing have been reported in the United States. Dr. Emil Bogen recently re- ported 15 cases which have been treat- ed in tke Los Angeles General Hos- pital. As @ rule the history Is of a bite by a black spider, followed jrame- diately by excrutiating pain in the legs and abdomen, great rigidity of the abdominal muscles, marked increase in blood pressure, fever and ,an in crease in the number of leucocytes, or white blood corpuscles, such as oc- curs with acute infections. These manifestations develop im: mediately after the bité and reach their height in one or two hours. The pain begins to subside in from 4 to 8 hours, but the other symptoms continue from 12 to 24 hours unabated, complete recovery following after a few days. It s the female of the species, of course, that is dangerous. The male spider is an inoffensive, long-suffer- ing, gentlemanly little cuss, in fact, his spouse thinks so well of him that ¢he eats him when the romance be- gins to wear off. This propensity has given the female the name of the “black widow.” Other names for this spider are latrodectus mactans, “shoe button spider,” “hourglass spider,” “T- dot spider” and ‘“po-ko-moo.” 1s shiny, coal black, usually brilliantly marked with red or vellow hourglass patch on the abdomen. Many other symptoms than those mentioned have been noted in cases of spider bite poisoning or arachni- dism, as it is called. Indeed, 12 deaths have been reported. Many victims experience cold sweating, restlessness and great anxiety, difficult: breathing, writhing from pain and cramps, ver- tigo, chills, paralysis or convulsions. Innumerable remedies have been employed, but the variable symptoms must_be met as they arise. Sedatives for the pain and anxiety, stimulants for the circulation, and immune serum seem to be the most satisfactory remedies. Morphine, codein or other pain kill- ers; aromatic spirits of ammonia, atropin, strong black coffee or tea as stimulants; hot molst compresses or A GOLDEN pallor ' more seductive than the rose .

Victims of spider bite experience only a slight stinging or pricking sen- sation at the point of attack, and often this occurs dfter dark. One or two tiny red spots may be seen at the site of the bite, but these soon disappear and there is no swelling or local inflammatory reaction at the site of the bite. ‘The Mack widow is seldom found in the North, being largely confined to the Southern Easy To Gain Weight - With Yeast and Iron New Combination of Yeast With Vegetable Iron Builds Up Weight in Three Weeks Thin, run-down and underweight, men, women and children can im- prove their health, increase their energy and put on from five to twenty pounds of good solid flesh in three weeks.
