A POISONED LEG. QUICKLY CURED BY REXONA.

"I am writing to tell you of the great value your Rexona Ointment has been to me. I had a small scratch on my leg, and the dye from my stocking poisoned it, and it gradually became worse and worse," writes Mrs. E. Smith, Alderson Street, Redfern, N.S.W. "It was swollen up to twice the size of my other leg, the pain was simply unbearable, also the irritation and heat. I used\to moan with tho agony. Sometimes I thought I would loso my leg. I tried all the ointments I could think of, and I also had doctor's treatment, but derived no benefit whatever. I suffered in this state for twelve months, and for weieks at a time I was laid up, and I was imablo to walk about to attend to my household duties. One day my son was leading the 'Evening News' when he noticiid an advertisement of Rexona Ointment, relating to the many cures, it had effected in cases similar to minej so he went to the chemists- and brought mo a pot of tho ointment to try, which I did, and after two or three applications I folt greatly relieved. It seemed' to draw all tho heat and irritation out of my leg. Aftqr this marked improvement I continued using tho ointment, and After I had finished the second pot my leg was completely healed, with not tho slightest sign of a pain left, thanks to Rexona Ointment.' Rexona, the Rapid Healing Ointment, is a remarkably effective remedy for all affections of tho skin, also for . wounds, burns, sores, and those many hurts which lire constantly calling for tho use of a reliable remedy.

CHAPMAN-ALEXANDER MISSION.

"JHERE IS A SIN UNTO DEATH."

The fifth evening meeting of the Chap-man-Alexander minion was held in. tho Town Hall last'night. The hall was well filled.

"Tho purpose of this service is to causo you to atop and think," said Dr. Chapman at the beginning of his address. it is not my intention to harrow your feelings, it is simply to sound a note of warning. It is not my intention to appeal either to your emotions or to your tears, but it is •my purpose with, the help of God to sfiy something that may cause you to see your danger, and then, if I may be used ot Him, I hope to say something that may cause a crisis in your thinking, and settle tile question of accepting Jesus Christ. ... I would like to see three classes of people in tho inquiry room after tho meeting to-night: First, those of you who have been members of the Church or the Salvation Army in other parts- of the world, but who have found your way to New Zealand and enlisted in the Army here or -coin'e into the Church as you did iu the Old Land; secondly, those of you who liave been Christians in the city of Wellingtou, and feel that you have drifted; but the great appeal is J o those of you who believe in Jesus Christ, but have never accepted him; those of you who are procratitiuators, who have said 'some, day 1 may be a, Christian.'" He. preached from the words, "'There is a sin unto death," in the fifth chapter of the first epistle of St. John. He detailed all the flagrant and hidden sins of the world, and then declared that the greatest sin in all the world was unbelief. Most people thought, or professed to think, that belief was a matter of mere opinion, that they had a rifjht to accept or reject the appeal of a minister or any servant of God, but they had not. This sin of unbelief had been described as crucifying Christ again. The sin was "unto death," Tho case was not hopeless, for while ' the unbeliever still lived there was hope'for him. But time was uncertain. "There lis a sin unto death," he' continued. "There are two reasons why this sin must seem to me too' terrific. Follow down according to tho text and you will read this, 'I do not say that you are to pray for this.' It is beyond the reach' ot prayer. It; seems to mo as if there can be no stronger statement. Prayer lias locked up the heavens and opened them again. Prayer has all but raised the dead. Prayer I It has brought heaven nearer, it has brought God nearer. Prayer! It has spanned a continent, and crossed a sea, and saved a soul. I don't say'that you shall pray for this sin! Tho second reason why to me it is an awful tiling is that it is against Jesus. I read of a boy the other day who struck his father; that was nothing to this. I read of a girl who turned her back upon her mother when she was in need; it is nothing to this. Jesus Christ, tho only begotten Son, infinite in His mercy, matchless in His love, Who died for you, died with outstretched arms as if to make the wholo world know that He would take them in loving embrace. . How can you resist Him?" Last of all, Dr. Chapman said, tho sin nnto death was the "constant, continual, and at last tho final rejection of God's offer of mercy through Jesus Christ." "Come, you men who have never known Jesus Christ. Take Him," lie said in his final appeal. "Come, you women who havo never known Him. Take Him.' You young people who'have never known Him. . Take Him." 1 The last of the "quiet hour" morning services will be held at 10.30 this morning in St. John's Church, aiid the usual evening servico will be held at 7.30 in tho Town Hall. To-morrow has been set apart as a day of prayer, and on' Friday afternoon there is to be a service for aged •people.
