Source of Quinine
Chlnchona, or cinchona, Is the name
of the South American tree, the bark
of which produces the well-known drug
called quinine. The virtues of the
bark were discovered about 1535, and
in 1635 a decoction made of the bark
cured of fever the wife of the vice
roy of Peru whose name was Cin
chona. The bark was Introduced into
France in 1649, and is said to have
cured of fever the dauphin, who later
became King Louis XIV. The bark
came into general use in 1680, and Sir
Hans Sloan introduced it into Eng
land about the year 1700. The chln
chona tree has been planted in India
and Ceylon and thrives there.
Made Lonely Journey
A woman farmer in a lonely part of
South Africa, Mrs. Ida Francis, has
just shown that in luck and endur
ance British women settlers are not
behind the men.
About two months ago a cyclone
devastated her farm, which lies be
yond the western fringe of the desolate
Kalahari desert; and then came floods
which destroyed the food and shelter
for her cattle. The only way to save
her animals was to drive them 400
miles across the desert to her son’s
farm, and this she did, unaided.
She found that many of the water
holes in the desert had dried up, an<i
sqmetlmes she had to ward off attacks
by lions with her rifle; but she kept
steadily on, and in the end brought
nearly all her charges through safely.

Bleeainge of Quarantine
"I wish to thank the city authorities
for quarantining my family and me
recently for three weeks because one
of them had smaWVox. During that
time my wife caught up with her sew
ing. We had three square meals every
day, as no one came In and she was
not permitted to leave. We enjoyed
three weeks of good nights' sleep, and,
best of all, a cousin with four children,
who had arranged to visit us, saw the
smallpox sign on the door and left
town so scared that she will never
come back again."
The above letter of thanks was re
ceived by a city health department re
cently.—From Hygela.

Seek and Ye Shall Find
“I will instruct thee, and teach thee in the way which thou
shalt go; I will guide thee with mine eyes.”—Psalms 32:8.
DIVINE worship is the highest act of man. T o
worship God in its true meaning is the
greatest privilege of mankind. When a man
truly worships he is receiving knowledge and
power; he opens himself, like a flower, to the
universal light of Truth, and receives and drinks
in its imparting rays.
Worship implies the element of conscious
inferiority and requires participation. It de
mands that the worshipper throw his whole
personality into the act if he would come in con
tact with the personality of God. A poor ser
w -
mon, commonplace music, or disturbing details
do not prevent worship.
He who attunes his mind to that which is
pure and beautiful and good, who in the hour
of worship strives to reach to the central and
eternal heart of things, brings himself in touch
with the personality of God and will receive
divine guidance.
“Seek and Ye shall find, knock and it shall
be opened unto you.” /
The church is the appointed place for di
vine worship, through which there is away to
knowledge, wisdom, truth and power.
