Will Not Offset the III Effects of Coffee and Tea When One Cannot Digest Them. A farmer says: "For ten years or more I suffered from dyspepsia and stomach trouble, caused by the use of colfee (Tea con tains caffeine, the same drug found in coffee), until I got so bad I had to give up coffee entirely and almost give up eating. There were times when I could eat only boiled milk and bread; and when I went to the field to work I had to take some bread and butter along to give me strength. ^ "I doctored steady and took almost everything I could get for my stomach in the way of medicine, but if I got any better it only lasted a little while. I was almost a walking skeleton. "One day I read an ad for Postum and told my wife I would try it, and as to the following facts I will make affi davit before any judge: tlJ rtinf nriffn r\ /~vr? f I o n /7 11 r a<-1 t J/-\ n x uuii, wucc cui.il ui.? ciiavi ueru rus* tvm in i13 place.

"My family would stick to coffee at first, but they saw the effects it had on me and when they were feeling bad they began to use Postum, one at a time, until now we all use Postum."

LESSON FOR JUNE 30 REVIEW OF 8ECOND QUARTER. GOLDEN TEXT?"I am not cmlie to destroy, but to fulflll."-Matt. 5:17. The lessons for this quarter be long for the most part to the year 28, known as the year of popularitj". Be* ginning with the great Easter lesson there is set forth the fact, certainty, and meaning of the resurrection of our Lord, by which was demonstrated his fulfilling of the purpose of Qod both in his own life and in his work upon the cross whereby was made possible the establishment ot the new kingdom. Several of these lessons are taken from his manifesto to show us the application of the law which ho came to fill full with a newer and richer meaning. Speaking of the Ideal Sabbath as contrasted with that pre sented by the religious teachers of the day, Jesus uses the Illustration of healing and also the plucking of grain to show us that man is of more value than the ceremonial observance of the law. Jesus proceeds in the third les son to choose and set apart those who shall share with him in the es tablishing of this new kingdom. This was the fulfilling of a purpose where in the Jews ,had failed?Jesus called these men to have fellowship with him in fruit bearing. In the fourth lesson Jesus depicts the character necessary for those who shall share with him in the fulfilling of God's purposes in this kingdom. The blessings of poverty and the danger of riches form the subject mat ter of the fifth lesson wherein we are taught a full revelation concerning life and its true substance. He wbo had n?t where to lay his head and whose "estate" when he left this world was the object of the rude sol diers' .flippant gamble tells us that like him If we would be great In this kingdom we too must lay up riches not on earth but In heaven. Key to Situation. The sixth lesson has to do with love as the secret of the fulfillment of g all that Is required, of all that has been already stated, or that may hereafter arise. In this lesson by a set of skilful questions Jesus asks and answers the fundamental princi ples of this law of love. So deep does he build and so high does be , reach that we are compelled to ex claim, "Who Is sufficient." And so it is that the seventh lesson logically follows the sixth, for in this we find the key to the whole situation. Begin nine with the varse that forms the golden text for today, Jesus goes on tD show us that what Is Impossible *lth man Is possible with Qod. That while the law is immutable and Its penalties therefore-still in force, that he, Jesus, Is the one and only one who , keeps the law outwardly and at the ] same time Its spirit and Intent as well; hence we have in him and his righteousness all that Is essential Id i this new kingdom. In him we have " sufficient power. The eighth lesson still further car ries out this teaching by showing us the fact that in the constant con- j sciousness of God there lies power i that will enable men, Independent ol ,| oaths, In simple truth to fulfill all the requirements or trutn. The ninth lesson Is one of the prac tical applications of these principles j which Jesus has been setting forth, j The ancient high priest with the bells ] and pomegranates upon his garment carried as much fruit as noise into the j holy place. So Jesus, this new higb j priest teaches us that though we are justified in the sight of God by our j faith we demonstrate that faith in the j sight of men by our actions toward | those about us. . If we are truly and properly spirit ually related to him our alms and prayers and fasting will not be foi the purpose of attracting the attention of men but each disciple will be aa his master who sought only to gloriry the Father. This is the man who builds upon solid ground and whose house stands amid the breaking storm rather than the one whose house not so founded goes to pieces amid the storm. This is the tenth lesson. Dominant Notes. Following these lessons upon the kingdom Jesus is shown in the eleventh lesson as depicting John the Baptist's place and significance as the forerunner of himself and because oi that position as being the exalted among those born of women yet he # who in humbleness Is little shall be ? creator Avon than John. John renre sented the end of the old and Jesua tile beginning of the new. The last lesson affords us a signifi cant view, a radiant revelation, or the compassion and at the same time the mercilessly keen discernment ol Jesus. His dealing with her who gave her best as contrasted with Simon who from his abundance gave only discourtesy and friendless criticism, teaches us what should be the real heart motive of our lives. He whc came to break the 6hell of Belf com placency glorified the act of the sinful woman who in contrition broke her alabaster box at his feet; he who lov ing much could forgive much. There are two or three notes that ire dominant throughout the lessone )f this quarter. He, Jesus, who Is the ight, not only sets up high standards jut at the same time shows men the path of attainment. _ Again in all ol lis work there is a perfect co-opera :lon of the son with the Father In the carrying out of the beneficent worh )f this new kingdom, teaching us that ve In like manner must be followers, workers together, with him. Though the old Is set aside it le lot set down, but contrariwise it is aised higher, and in its fulfillment has ?ver raised men higher and nearei fod. HARD FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.
