The passage of resolutions expressing the consensus of opinion of the congress and the election of officers were the final features of a series of meetings marked by many deeply scientific pa pers dealing with tne aisease wmcii Df late years has come into prominence as a distinct malady with which medi cal men must battle.

A movement is on foot looking to the establishment of an electric road from Aiken to Barnwell, via Olar and Ehrhardt. The plan is entirely feasi ble and should meet with the encour agement of every one in the territory through which the road will run.

"INDEPENDENT MOVEMENT" The Idea That Was Stressed By Those In Charge.?Constitution and Rules I Were Adopted at the State Meeting Recently. Columbia. ? Under the leadership of B. Sherwood Dunn of Aiken, pro visional national committeeman, the Progressive party was launched in South Carolina at a meeting held in a local hotel. The meeting was at tended by about 40 South Carolinians from all parts of the state. The Pro gressives will put out an electoral ticket in the November election, but will not have any nominees for state offices in the race against the Demo crats and Socialists. A state secretary, state treasurer and seven members of the state exec utive committee were ellected at the recent meeting. The Progressive par ty will carry on an active campaign in South Carolina in the interest of Ted dy Roosevelt, their candidate for pres ident. At the meeting Mr. Dunn stressed the point that the Progressive party Is an independent "white man's" par ty, unaffiliated with either the Re publican or Democratic. The party was called the "Progressive Repub lican." This was a mistake. The name of the new party which Roose velt heads is simply the "Progressive" party. The selection of a xstate chairman and state vice chairman has been postponed. The officers selected at 1 * ?? ? ? ? TXT D of tne meeting were; w. or. ucuu, ??.

SELLERS, Director of Evening Department, The Moody Bible Institute, Chicago.) LESSON FOR OCTOBER 20. MISSION TU Tht UfcN I IL.H3. LESSON TEXT-Mark 7:24-30 and Mat thew 8:6-13. GOLDEN TEXT?"Him inat cometh to me I will In no wise cast out"?John 6:87. Chronologically the incident of the centurions servent precedes that of the Syrophenician woman, though we will look at them in the order sug gested. The one incident occurs near the border of Tyre and Sidon, prob ably about May or June, A. D. 29, and the other In Capernaum during the summer of A. D. 28. Both are inci dents -in the life of Jesus that have to do with his ministry as the Hebrew .Messiah to those who were outside of the pale of Judaism. At the beginning of Mark's record (v. 24) we have a wonderful sugges tion as to the strain of Jesus, ministry and the accompanying lesson that true righteousness cannot be hid, It speaks for itself. There are four use* of the word "answered" in Matthew's record of this incident (Matt. 15:21-28) that are suggestive. Let us first, however, get the setting. This woman was a Greek ?a Gentile; by race she was a Sy rophenician, that Is, a Canaanite. Thus she was a descendant of that race whom God, by the hand of Josh ua, had driven out to make room for the Hebrew nation, and as such is under the ban of God. See Eph. 2:12. Yet this woman reaches Jesus, her trouble belne that her daughter is possessed by an unclean spirit. At her approach she takes a lowly place at Jesus' feet and requests that he heal the child. She calls him the "Son of David," and "He answered her not a word." Matt. 15:23. She had no claim upon him as the Mes siah. This was the wrong footing, for she was not a child of the kingdom. It was her need that drove her to him. How she had heard of him is suggested in Mark 8:8 and 7:24, cf. Rom. 10:17. There ar? some ques tion that silence will not answer. A wrong conclusion will be reached, as in this case the disciples came to a wrong conclusion and desired to "send her away." CokHtrast Jesus' patience with the disciples' impa tience, "she crieth after us" and em phasize the danger of external judg ment. There are many great moral Issues today that are demanding an other answer than that of Bilence. The Answer of Law. Jesus then made a second answer, the answer of law, Matthew 16:24, in which he accepts her estimate of him as the Jewish Messiah. His work was primarily to the Jews (John 1:11, 12). But her need wbb great, and Identifying nerseir witn tne neea 01 the child she "worshipped" JesuB. He 1b more than the Messiah, he Is a Saviour. Not yet, however, ia Jesus ,ready to grant her request His third answer (v. 25), the answer of mercy, is literally that first the .children must be fed, and she replied, "Yea, Lord; even the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs." For this saying, viz., that she did not pro test against the words he had spoken, but accepted the proper estimate of blm as being the Jewish Messiah and herself as outside of that covenant, he made a fourth answer, the answer to faith. He answered: "O, woman, great is thy faith," v. 28, and grants her carte blanc (v. 28), "be it unto thee even as thou wilt" As outcasts, we must cast ourselves "at his feet" It Is his table, the Master's table. from which we may expect food. He it is that breaks the bread for us. We are never beyond his reach and he has made abundant provision. Let us now look at the account of the centurion's servant. Once more Jesus is appealed to by one who is outside the Hebrew covenant and on behalf of a servant. In the other in cident there was the interruption of a seeming refusal and here the inter ruption of an instantaneous granting of the request. Again we need to read the parallel accounts given by the other evangelists. Verse ten of this section is the key to this whole story. What are some of the marks of a "great faith?" First, it is tested. The servant was "dear unto the centurion," Luke 7:2. Second, it is progressive "when he heard of Jesus," Luke 7:3. Third, it will be recognized by/others, Luke 7:4. recognized by others, Luke 7:4. Here wo are told that the centurion came not, at least not at first, unto Jesus, but Is interceded for by the Jews. The ground of their intercession was that which constitutes a fourth evidence of a great faith, viz., liberality, "He is worthy, for he loveth our nation and hath built us a synagogue." Luke 7: 4, 5. We have, however, a better ground of intercession, Heb. 10:19. Great faith is also humble, "Lord, I am not worthy," Matthew 8:8. Sixth, it is confident, "Speak the word only," Matthew 8:8, and lastly, it recognized j authority, Matthew 8:9. Notice the I word "also" in this verse as used in | the revised version. The secret of Jesus' life was his implicit obedience to the Father, John 4:34 and Matthew 26:42. The centurion being under authority could command others, and Jesus being under the authority of God of course had power. We believe the centurion isaw in Jesus the Son of " ? '?V ?V? nrV^of urne tne most mgu, un eiuic ?? uui .. healing in him, all that was needed was but the word of command. The Great Faith. The protest in v. 9, and the remark' able commendation of Jesus thereon, is a solemn warning to all who are in covenant relations with God and his Son whom he has sent. Jesus had there a glimpse of that great coming day when all Gentiles would be gathered unto him, v. 11 (cf. Rev. 7:9). The centurion received for his faith com mendation, and healing for his serva well. v. 13..

At the first sign of constipation the motner snouia administer a mua laxa tive to carry off the congested waste from the stomach that is fermenting and forcing poisonous gases into the system.

This compound Is known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and ' is bold by druggists everywhere for 50c a bottle. A larger bottle, put up especially for the family medicine chest, costs one dollar.
