I Foxglove everybody knows. It is a common enough plant, but recâ€" koned handsome enough to set in the flowerâ€"garden. Every part of it contains digitalin, another dangerâ€" ous poison, that weakens the action of the heart to such a degree that people have been known to Gdrop dead after taking it, simply from a sudden change of position, such as getting up from a chair. Henbane is another dangerous plant, common in the kitchenâ€"garâ€" den, a weed. It belongs to the same family as the potato and tomato, and has sometimes been cooked with the greens, as it is quite a small plant. You can tell it by its rather large dirtyâ€"yellow flowers, with a network of purple veins. Very likely you have horseradish in your garden, and, not far off, those pretty blueâ€"flowered plants called Monkshood. When the flowâ€" ers and leaves have died down at the approach of winter, you may go, as many others have done, to dig for a root of horseradish to go with the Sunday beef. Be very careful. The root you are after is very like that of Monkshood, and this contains quantities of one of the most deadly poisons known, aconitin. The thirtieth part of a grain would kill you. The taste is rather like horseradish at first, but soon the lips and tongue begin to tingle, and numbness spreads over the whole body, ending at last in paralysis and death. Garden Treachery SARNIA.â€"A superâ€"highway beâ€" tween the international border here and Montreal was envisioned by R. M. Smith, Deputy Minister of Highâ€" ways, in an address to the London and Border Citics Branches of the Engineering Institute of Canada. It would, Mr. Smith said, be suâ€" perior to the Middle Road between Hamilton and Toronto and the proâ€" vince hoped it would be a project for the future. The Deputy Ministâ€" er explained the arrangements beâ€" tween the various Governments unâ€" der which the Bluewater Bridge was built and ‘he terms under which it will eventually become the property of the public.

Gathered and collected by Mr. Hess over a number of years, the Indian artifacts are all from the territory between Grand _ Bend and _ Zurich, relate to the Neutral Indians bounded by Lake Huron, and who inhabited this territory. One of the interesting items of the collection is a carved slate stone, bearing a pictorial tribal message of warning. An archaeological interpretation of the Indian message will be made soon.

Christ says that such distinctions are iniquitous. All oaths are binding, but no oaths ought to be used, because a man‘s word ought to be enough. 7. Thou shalt not take the name of Jehovah thy God in vain; for Jeâ€" hovah will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. The Third Commandment continues to dwell upon the sacredness of the relationship that should exist beâ€" tween God and man, but in this parâ€" ticular case deals exclusively with man‘s speech, declaring that he should not take the name of the Lord his God in vain. The Hebrew word here translated in vain" means, literally, "to make use of for any idle, frivolous, or inâ€" sincere purpose." Thus, God‘s name is not to be desecrated either by false swovring or by being used disâ€" respectfully for any other frivolous or idle purpose, as in cursing or reviling, or to support false pretenâ€" sions of being able to use magic or divination, or to predict the future. Another way by which men can use the name of the Lord irreverâ€" ently is by insincerity of life, by bhypocrisy, by pretending one thing with the words that they utter, when in reality they are determin. ed to live a life entirely contrary to what their words would indicate. Christ‘s Interpretations Matt. 5:33â€"37. 33. Again, ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths: 34. but I say unâ€" to you, Swear not at all: neither by the heaven, for it is the throne of God; 35. nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36. Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, for thou canst not make one hair white or black. 37. But let your speech be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay; and whatsoever is more than these is of the evil one. Place.â€"The Ten Commandments were given on Mount Sinai. It is not known on what mountain in Palestine our Lord delivered his great sermon. Capernaum is locatâ€" ed at the northern end of the Sea of Galilee. on the Mount was uttered by our Lord in the sumner of A.D. 28, and the incident recorded at Capernaum in the autumn of the same year. LESSON 111 REVERENCE FOR cop Exodus 20:7; Matthew §:33â€"37; 12:33â€"37. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.â€"The Ten Commandeuts were given 1498 B.C. The Sermon LIFE‘S LIKE THAT Sunday School "Women first? . . . . what do you think this is, a shipwreck?" Lesson POPâ€"A Musical Ghost Matt. 12:33â€"37. Our Lord, previâ€" ous to speaking the words which are assigned to our lesson, had cast out a demon from one who was brought to him suffering blindness and dumbness, as well as this evil possession. 33. Either make the tree good, a.&1 its fruit good; or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by its fruit, 34. by an oath was something that came "of evil," he either meant that the oath was necessary beâ€" cause of the tendency to lie in the hearts of men, and therefore in it self witnessed to man‘s mistrust of men, or as often is the case, our Lord would indicate that many oaths are uttered to support or conâ€" firm what the one so speaking knows to be a lie, and thereby the sin of the falsehood is multiplied, the heart of the one speaking the falsehood is the blacker, and evil itself thereby is multiplied in that person‘s heart. Here are four members of the fiveâ€"man international commission appointed by the conferees at the Munich conference to arrange the details of Czech evacuation of ceded territories and to oversee the program for the pacific settlement of the Germanâ€"Czech problem accordâ€" ing to the terms agreed upon by Britain, France, Germany and Italy at the meeting that saved Europe from another bloodbath.

TORONTO. â€" Horse breeding in Ontario has been more active in 1938 than in any season since 1920 and for the first time Percheron stallions available for public service exceeds Clydesdales, the Ontario Stallion Enrolment Board announced. 36. And I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. 37. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be conâ€" demned. An "idle" word is simply an ineffectual word or an insipid word, "an index of thoughtlessness, if not of malice." Idle or wicked words are but the expression of a man‘s character, and as such will form a basis for judgment in the last day, when the things done in the body will be judged (2 Cor. 5: 10). More Ontario Horses There is nothing which we need more these days than the cultivaâ€" tion of noble thinking, and the storâ€" ing in our hearts of vast treasures of the finest things in life and litâ€" erature, a purpose that will lead us to observe the beautiful and to hate the ugly. Ye offspring of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. 35. The good man out of his good treasure bringâ€" eth forth good things; and the evil man out of his evil treasure bringâ€" eth forth evil things. See also Matt. 7:16â€"20; Luke 6:45. The fruit that is borne is determined by the na. ture of the tree. Words are pro ducts. If a man‘s life is evil at the center, you can expect nothing else but evil words as the fruit of that life. If a man is soundly good, his words will be soundly wholesome and true. WELL L You ~ _ _MUVRDERED No one craft is suitable for every woman. An older woman with consecutive hours of freedom could study a craft such as cabinâ€" etmaking at a studio, while a very busy young mother might weave in the evening. Some hobbies such as photography, woodâ€"work, and sketching, a husband and wife can share; others are exclusively feminine. Some cost little or nothâ€" ing; some can be worked at for 10 minutes and then dropped; and some can be entirely selfâ€"taught. Having a Craft There is nothing new to be said about the pleasures of having a real hobby, but most people do not realize how constructive these pleasures are or how they enrich every aspect of the hobbyist‘s life. The instinct for sound craftsmanâ€" ship carries over into humdrum daily duties; studios, workshops, exhibitions, libraries, museums all suddenly develop to deep and lively interest; and best of all there is a gencrous welcome from the fascinating, international, and historical brotherhood of fellow craftsmen. 7,204 New Autos Bought In August Sales of new motor vehicles in Canada during August totalled 7,204 units at $8,018,020, comâ€" pared with 9,074 at $9,521,833 in August, 19387, the Dominion Burâ€" eau of Statistics reports. Sales for the first eight months of 1938 numbered 92,085, retailing for $102,852,967, against 115,998 at $117,947,2083 in the 1937 period. Before embarking on a new hobby it is necessary to have some preliminary information â€" someâ€" thing of the character of the craft, the initial cost of theâ€" equipment, good books of instruction, other methods of learning, practical uses, and outlets for sales.

A Streamlined Rural Mail Rox The average rural mail box is a good deal easier for the patron to handle than it is for the rural mail courier, says the Seaforth Exâ€" positor,. There are some perfect ones, of course, but we are talking nbout the average, and the door on the average mail box is someâ€" thing that won‘t stay shut; that won‘t stay open; that breaks off; that sticks, and that always squeaks. No Door At Ail Apparently the rural mail cour» iers ncross the line have experiâ€" enced similar troubles with the boxes of their patrons. But now they are going to end it all. At least, we notice the other day that at the thirtyâ€"fifth annual convenâ€" tion of the United States rural mail couriers, that body passed a very considered judgment upon a nes? stfeamlined m:fi box, and the Post Office Department is likely to give its approvai. The new streamlined mail box has no door at all. Nothing to opâ€" en or close, or stick, or anything else. All the mail man has to do is to press a finger on the rear of the box and the entire cover swings up and back.
