    IS THERE SUCH A THING AS
PERFECT
WOMANHOOD ?
"No”—claim medical authorities, who ought to
know! Nature has so constructed and physi
cally endowed woman that in many cases she’s
apt to suffer certain distressing symptoms
during her life. For instance, when she enters
womanhood—or during the menopause, the
period when fertility ebbs away.
Now if on ‘certain days’ of the month—fe
male functional monthly disturbances are
causing you to suffer from pain, nervous dis
tress and feel so tired, cranky, you snap at
your children and husband—then do try Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to relieve
such symptoms. It’s famous for this purpose.
* Made ESPECIALLY For Girls and Women
Pinkham’s Compound does more than relieve
such monthly pain. It also relieves accom
panying nervous tension, irritability and weak,
nlghstrung feelings—when due to this cause.
Taken regularly thruout the month — this
great medicine helps build up resistance
against such distress. A thing any sensible
woman should want to do!
Lydia Pinkham’s Compound is also very
effective to relieve hot flashes and those funny,
embarrassing feelings during the years 38 to
52—when due to the functional ‘middle-age’
period peculiar to women.
Pinkham’s Compound is worth trying!

Our pastor spoke to us from the
12 Chapter of the Hebrews.
Theme: “A Plea to Patience.”
Most of us don’t have the amount
of patience that we need or
should have. Sometimes we boast
I that we don’t have enough pat
ience, however, when we are deal
ing with an individual we want
attention immediately. Let us
look into the far beyond. Let us
lay aside the things that so easily
disturb us. A good thing for us to
do is to set aside the things that
wiil keep us from the Kingdom of
God. Instead of standing on the
mountain top pointing out the
faults of my brother, I should
search out myself, andtry to lay
aside my faults- Let us aside the
weights that so easily distrub us
and Plea for Patience.
Let us always remember to have
more patience.
There were several visitors in
our service todayy; they are al
ways welcome.
Let us pray for the shuts-ins
wherever they are.
Coming events: July 13, from 7

American Meat Packing
From a humble beginning 306
rears ago, meat packing has grown
» become one of the nation’s larg
est industries. Meat packers in the
United States produce more than 20
trillion pounds of meat annually.
From five million farms and
ranches in every state the meat
packers purchase 127 million cattle,
talves, hogs and sheep to make into
steaks, roasts, stews, sausage items
and canned meat, as well as utiliz
ing by-products for many pharma
ceutical and manufacturing items.
Meat Packing Industry
The start of commercial meat
packing in North America can be
traced to 1641 when a square-rigged
ship sailed from Boston harbor with
a cargo which a handful of New
England colonists hoped could be
sold to West Indies plantation own
ers. Capt. John Pynchon, Spring
field, Mass., and a few farmer neigh
bors had consigned hogsheads of
beef and pork, packed in salt, to 1
England’s colonies.
Knockabout Chairs
If you have knockabout chairs in
the sunroom or on “sabbatical
leave” from the summer porch and |
their, vnpearance is not everything
you desire, consider making simple
slipcovers for them. Use strong fab
rics like ticking or oilcloth in fast
colors, $o they can be tossed regu
larly into the washing machine.
Eye Girl’s Worth
To tempt potential husbands
many maidens in the Orient, espe
cially in Asia Minor, build up nice
dowries by weaving rugs. With
their earnings they buy perforated
gold coins, which they wear as
necklaces around their necks so
that a young village buck, at a
glance, can evaluate a girl’s worth.
‘Ahoy’, Not ‘Hello’
“Ahoy,” not “Hello,” was the ex
perimental greeting used when the
first commercial telephone switch
board and exchange was installed
at New Haven, Conn., in 1878. It
had eight lines and served 21 sub
scribers.
Population in Palestine
Since 1940 Palestine's Jewish pop
ulation has jumped from 163,000 to
630,000, immigration and natural in
creases being about equal. These
figures are about 12 times that of
1919. The Arab population is ap
proximately 1,110,000.
Land of Quarters
Africa is the land of quarters. One
quarter of its area is forest and ,
bushland, one quarter is grass land,
one quarter is desert and the re
maining quarter is cultivated. World
Book encyclopedia discloses.
Live on a Potato
One potato will supply 100 calo
ries or about one twenty-fifth of the
amount of calories recommended for
the average adult for daily con
sumption. However, it is essential
that a balanced ration be utilized.
Time Savers
At least four hours a week can be
saved by an ironer in the average
family. A saving of several hours
can be accomplished by the washer.
The total gain from the two amounts
to several weeks a year.
Blue at Wedding
The wearing of something blue at j
the wedding was ancient Israelite
custom which suggested a blue rib
bon for the bride—blue being the col
or of purity, love and fidelity.
Handle Logs Promptly
Timber cut during the growing
season requires prompt handling to
avoid deterioration from decay, in
sect attacks or sap stains, exten
sion foresters report.
Gives A Lift
To give a lift to canned or cooked
dried fruit, squeeze orange or
grapefruit juice over the top just be
fore serving.
Farm Production
From the top third of the nation’s
farms comes 80 per cent of the total
production; from the other two
thirds, 20 per cent

Lime Essential
Lime is essential on acid soils for
proper growth of many crop and
pasture plants. To promote this de
lired growth, sufficient lime should
Se applied to change the acid condi
tion to a near neutral point. Under
•nost conditions in the upland area
the addition of lime to the soil also
provides calcium for plant growth.
Commercial fertilizer, incorporated
with the soil management practices
previously mentioned, is essential
for continued high crop production.
Every crop harvested for grain,
forage or other use removes plant
food from the soil. Soils under con
tinuous cropping systems, coupled
with erosion, lose their plant nu
trients faster than they can be re
placed by nature.
Record History
Hieroglyphic, or picture writing,
on stone by ancient Egyptians
which has been deciphered by his
torians tells the story of the early
Pharaoh dynasties thousands of
years before the birth of Christ.
Writing on cl&y or stone was man’s
first attempt to leave his history
and that ot his fellowman to future
generations. Later the Egyptians
made a writing material from the
papyrus weed, a tall reed that grew
in the marshy land long the Nile.
It was used as early as 3600 B. C.
and it is from the word papyrus
that paper derived its name. '
Refinishing Cabinets
If the old finish of a metal kitchen
cabinet is not scratched or chipped,
a thorough cleaning to remove any
traces of greasy film, followed by
a light *ubbing with very fine sand
paper to dull the gloss of the old
enamel, should be sufficient prepa
ration for refinishing. After wiping
with, turpentine or mineral spirits,
apply one or two coats of enamel
undercoater, in accordance with the
manufacturer’s directions on the
can, and finish with a coat of
enamel of the desired tint.
Primitive Origin
The universality of man’s love of
color was demonstrated early in
antiquity. Each region and sub-re
gion of the globe developed its own
dye sources. It is estimated that
nearly 1,000 different plants, vines,
shrubs and trees were, at one time
or another, employed for extract
ing dyes. However, only a few of
the primitive dyes survived to an
cient and medieval times.
Milk in Industry
In more and more industries milk
is being used to improve employees'
health and counteract fatigue. Re
ductions in accidents with an im
provement in safety, less absentee
ism due to illlness, increased produc
tion during hours of fatigue low
points. are reported where milk is
being served between meals or add
ed to diets.
Original Alloy
Prehistoric ornaments of plati
num hammered over gpld were
found in the graves of the priests
and kings of the ancient Indian in
habitants of Colombia. This was
probably the original idea of com
bining the two rare metals to obtain
the two-tone color effect for jewelry.
Alloy Is Strong
The green color of emeralds is
due to small quantities of chromium
in the jewels. When this same
chromium is added to steel along
with nickel, the resultant alloy is a
hard, strong, wear-resistant metal,
nickel-chrome steel, often used in
gears and axles.
Industrial Uses
Milk is used in a wide variety of
industrial products such as plastics,
textiles, paper coating, paint, glue,
films, pharmaceuticals, insulation,
fertilizer, insecticides, penicillin,
plaster, dyes, animal feed, preserva
tives, explosives, electroplates.
