The Effects of Opiates. THAT INFANTS are peculiarly susceptible to opium and its various preparations, all of which are narcotic, is well known. Even in the smallest coses, if oontinued, these opiates cause changes in the functions and growth of the cells which are likely to become permanent, causing imbecility, mental perversion, a craving for alcohol or narcotics in later life. Nervous diseases, such as intractable nervous dyspepsia and lack of staying Ewers are a result of dosing with opiates or narcotics to keep children quiet their infancy. The rule among physicians is that children should never receive opiates in the smallest doses for more than a day at a time, and only then if unavoidable. The administration of Anodynes, Drops, Cordials, Soothing Syrups and other narcotics to children by any but a physician cannot be too strongly decried, and the druggist should not be a party to it. Children who are ill need the attention of a physician, and it is nothing less than a oriino to dose them willfully with narootice. ? Castoria contains no narcotics If it bears the signature of Chas.

(Copyright by Western Newspaper Union.) PAAAtl MAM * " ? i LLS5UN I"UK JULT L PAUL AT THESSALONICA AND BEREA. { LESSON TEXT-Acta 17:1-15 (cf. I Thoss. 2:1-12). GOLDEN TEXT-Hlm did God exalt witn Ma rlxht hand to be & prince and a Savior.?Acta 6:31. To place a modern war map by the ] Bide of the ancient one will help to i make the places Paul visited more j real. In both of the events of this j lesson reference is made to the read- j ing and use of the Scriptures, and teachers should use that to emphasize ; | tho reading of the Bible by both old | i and young. Thero is real patriotism ' as well as safety and a liberal educa- , : tion In Bible study. Paul reached 1 ; Thessalonica about twenty years nftcr i I tho establishment of tho Christian | church, remained perhaps five or six months and then went on to Berea. ! ; Modern Saloniki has been since tho j Roman days of Thessalonica an important center, thriving and prosper' oub of later years till tho recent Balkan-Turkish war. I. At Thessalonica Jvv. 1-9) (1) Reasoning (vv. 1-5) (a) Tho place. On tfciii second journey Silas and Timothy (v. 14) were Paul's companions. Recently driven from Phlllppl (I These. 2:1-2) they ut once repaired ? I to the synagogue upon reaching tho l city, knowing that thero they could 1 gain a foothold with both Jew nnd Gentile. It was Paul's usual means | (v. 2 Am. R. V.). Douhtless during ! HlO nrn wnolrn !>/* Ituu tnu nvcno VUU UIOWI|ilCO USUU CV?I / opportunity for discussion. Paul mado " use of the Sabbath day of assembly al- j I though Christians met on the first day t of tho week for their own distinctive service (Acts 20:7). He also reasoned s j from tho Scriptures which tho Jews so highly revered. The best agent j for doing personal work is the word t of God (Eph. 6:17; Jer. 23:20; .Tas. ' 1:18; I Pet. 1:23). (2) Tho method. \ j Paul employed three. (a) He rea- i soned that Christ must suffer. Why? i ; (See Isa. 53:6; Math. 26:28; Heb. i I 9:22; John 10:36). Paul had only the | * | Cld Testament. We have also the New to bring to our aid. (b)That , i , | "Christ must rise from the dead"?like 1 | Peter at Pentecost. Paul proved this ) ' j from the Old Testament. If we will j allow the Holy Spirit to "open the j Scriptures" to us we will flpd things i i new and old and exclaim that where- i as "once I was blind now I see." (c) ' j : He "alleged and affirmed" (set forth), t I ' e. g? gave testimony that "this Jesus r i whom, I proclaim unto you Is tho f ' Christ." Paul know that the hlstor| leal Jesus was the glorified Christ, for he had met him "In the way" to Da- J mascus. Paul's manner of life in tho j , city as he lived apd preached Jesus i was much that It contributed greatly to his success. His "manner of life ! . was blameless" (Acts 26:4); he sup- ' ported himself (I Thes. 2:9; II Thes. : c . ! 8:8). (2) Reception (v. 6-10). At ! o first these men were received as from J , God bv larere numbers (v 4 See 1 . i I These. l:fi-10). Rut the gospel then \ as now causes divisions. Not all pro- I fessed followers of God know or ae- n cept the gospel. Paul's success i aroused the envy of the Jews Just as J [ every successful servant is envied by f those of lesser light. The charge j brought against Paul and Silas (v. 6) I was In large measure true, and It was Jj a good testimony and tribute to their ? effectiveness. It was also In accord d with Christ's prophecy. (Math. 10:34; * Luke 12:53). It Is tho business of the g gospel to accomplish Just such results. We need more of such as shall turn the wrong side down and tho right side up. These men were ac- r cused of "saying that there Is anI other King, one Jesus." r II. At Berea. (v. 10-15). The dls- v clples' departure by night was an act c of prudence (Math. 10:23), and Paul H continued his great Interest In the con- n verts he had left. See the two letters addressed to that church. Reaching (] Berea Paul began as usual to preach n Jesus first of all to the Jews. The h citizens of Berea were "more noble" h and have continued to this day as a >s great Inspiration to Bible students | (witness the Bercan series of lesson u helps). (1) They "received the word H with readiness of mind." There was a n hunger for spiritual food and they tl partook of It with a relish. Some re- d celve truth under compulsion while p others hunger for it. (See I These. (| 1:7; 3:10). (2) "Searched" (exam men) me scriptures daily. (2) Earn day they sought the mind cf God. Much of our present day Blblo study j( Is interesting and onllghtentng. but 1> n not energizing nor evangelistic be- t| cause it looks upon the Eiblo merely i as literature. tl We need to study the Bible as did )t the Bereans to know love and obey y Jesus as our Savior and king. : We need to study it as our guld? j and counsel through life. R Those who "believed" as the result (J of such preaching and study were well grounded (I Thess 3:10). 0 After several weeks of such blessed M ministry the Thessalonlan Jews Interfered, "stirring up and troubling thi multitude" (v. 14 Am.

A new method lias been discovered, soys an English paper, for preserving g various food products, especially milk powder, the Idea being based upon placing the substance In a sealed vessel or packing case with Inert gas, so that this latter prevents the usual a spoiling of contents by the action of j, the air. In the French patented process the milk powder Is packed In ^ iretnl boxes of convenient size, which | are entirely sealed except for a pin- j. hole that is I<?ft at the top. A number of suck bo\< :< are put In a chamber and the air I* exhausted by menus of .] an air pump When this operation Is finished valves are opened which allow c nitrogen to enter the chamber and till j up the several hoses. When opening up the chamber the boxes are quickly t removed and the pinhole soldered hefore an appreciable amount of air has (| time to enter. Ir. this way the contents of the boxes are kept In an at- , mosphere of Inert gas, und the process Is thus practical from an industrial , standpoint. ( ti Had Her Safe.
