New Yori& O =-s The Things of God and Things of Men By REV. JOHN C. PAGE Teacher of Bible Doctrine, Moody Bible Institute, Chicago. TEXT.-But he turned and said unte Peter, Get thee .behind, me, Batan; thou art an offense uito me; for thou sa vb rest not the things that be of God, but thone that be ot mea. -Matt. 16:23. The latter part df this chapter brings into prominence the person, passion and pros pect of the Son of Man. The words of Peter in verse 16 bring into clear view his person as "the Christ, the Son of the living God." His passion is described in verse 21. He must go to Jerusalem and be killed and be raised again. The prospect is presented in verse 27. "The Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels." To deviate from any of these three truths ls tc descend from the level of "the things that be of God" to the plane of "the those that be of men." Peter ignorantly opposed the second of these essential truths and received the rebuke recorded In verse 23. "Get thee behind me, Satan, for thou art an offence un;o me; for thou savour est not the things that be of God, but those that be of men". From the viewpoint of the purely* human-"the things that be of men," the suggestion of Peter carries nothing with it to meet so severe a rebuke as the Lord administered to him. "Pity thyself" or "Be it far from thee" ia the Impulsive expression of self-in terest and self preservation, both the Master's and his own. It is altogether In harmony with "the things that be of men." But as lt is written, "My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord, for as the heavens are high above the earth so are my ways above your ways and my thoughts above your thoughts." "The things that be of men," even religious things, are expressed In terms of self interest. > "Pity thyself" said Peter, "Get thee behind me," replied Jesus, "thou art an offence unto me." Then said Jesus unto" His disciples, "If any man will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me." The things that be of God are best learned at Calvary. In Its message, death and resurrection are the domi nant notes. "The Son of man must go. to Jerusalem and be killed and be raised again." If any man will follow Him, he must go the same way, the way of the cross and the tomb and the resurrection morning. "If a grain of wheat fall into the ground and die, lt brlngeth forth much fruit." Apart j from death there can be no resurrec tion into "newness of life." No1 man can realize the best until he has let himself go. Human nature j shrinks from this. It is the acknowl edgment of failure, the confession of the inability of self, and also of re- j liance upon Another. In "the things that be of men," a large place ls given to mottoes, laws, standards, Ideals, symphonies and so forth, but "the things that be of God" belong to a dlirerent realm. "If any man will j come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me." j The first meaning of the cross is j death. The cross crosses us out so that Another may occupy the place ' formerly occupied by self. This Is the denial of self, a different matter from self-denial which is practiced j during Lent or on other occasions, and j which fits easily Into the things of men. To be a Christian ls not a weak sen timental sort of a thing; lt is real, vital, fundamental. It Involves a change of outlook and a new concep tion of life. The cross of Christ was Inevitable to Him because of His Identity with us. He must go to Jerusalem and die. The merited goal of the human race is death In all its Implications. The Son of God became the Lamb ?of God that He might put away sin and overcome death. By faith we may behold Him bearing our sins in His own body on the cross and there put ting them away forever. . But more than that He ls In His death and resurrection, the forerunner of a great multitude which no man can number, who have taken the same ! view of life as He did. They have j taken up the cross and followed Him. j In them. God has made the death and ; resurrection life of Christ so real and I effective that they can assert with Paul, "I ara crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live, yet not I but Christ liveth in me." This is a supernatural work wrought In the soul by the power of God. Until this miracle ls per formed the genius of the Christian re ligion cannot be understood, Christian experience cannot be satisfactory, nor can a Christian theology or philos ophy be built up. Work. Idleness Is not rest. It ls not work that ls the curse of the fall, but fa tigue. Adam worked at tilling and dressing the garden before he fell ba to sin ; afterwards lt was hard, dreary, unblessed work-work in the sweat of his brow which was his curse. Work Itself ls Godlike and divine, as our Blessed Lord sald,\ "My Father worketh hitherto, and I work."-W. 0, E. Newbolt Senator Smith Urges Appoint ment of Farmers on Re serve Board. Washington, Jan. 19.-Senator El lison D. Smith of South Carolina has won another notable victory for the farmers of the country by securing for them representation on the fed eral reserve board. An amendment to the federal reserve act has been agreed to which provides, in sub stance, that the board, shall oppoint a representative of the agricultural interests. This means that a farmer will be named to fill the next va cancy. Senator Smith has had several con ferences with the president concern ing this matter and to him belongs the lion's share 'of credit f br bringing about the amendment of the law so as to make certain that the great agricultural interests of the country may be properly represented in the management of the nation's finances. In discussing the matter in the senate, Senator Smith saidr i "I presume now is as good a time as any to state that after due con sideration and conference amongst those who are responsible for this matter being brought up at this time, and in view of certain assurances given me, there will be offered a sub stitute for the bill introduced in be half of myself and others, and at the time that substitute is offered I shall ask that the bill I have offered be withdrawn and that the substitute be supported. I shall do that because ? believe the objects sought to be at tained will be more readily attained and more satisfactorily attained, per haps, by the passage of the substitute than if the original proposition were agreed to. "I am sure that all those with whom I have conferred have the same object in view that we have. It is simply a question of a difference of method of reaching it. I have been in conference with all the powers that would have control of this matter, and at the invitation of the president I had a conference with him, and I am satisfied that the measure which will be offered as a subsitute for my .bill will meet all the objects sought to be attained, and perhaps more ex peditionary than would be true under mine. Therefore, at the time the sub stitute is offered, I propose to ask that my bill be withdrawn and the substitute supported." Precedent Established by Elec tion of Mrs. White.. Precedent has been established with the election of Mrs. John E. White to the office of school trustee, for she is the first woman ever elect ed to a public office in Anderson county. The election' of trustees held yes terday for the school district No. 17, 'resulted in the election of Dr. W. H. ?Nardin who received 204 votes; S. L. Prince, 143 and Mrs. White 141. Oth er candidates for the offices were S. A. McCown, J. B. Humbert and 0. G. Burriss. With the election of Mrs. White as school trustee, the League of Woman Voters of Anderson have scored a victory, for they have put forth every effort during the past few days to elect their candidate to office. The women of the city and county ran their candidate upon a platform of education, and cards stating as much were distributed over the city. A fact of especial interest during the election yesterday was that num bers of men were unable to vote in the election because of the fact that they could not produce their tax re ceipts for the year 1921. Many of them frankly admitted that they had not paid their taxes by reaso'n of the unusual conditions now existing and stated that they preferred to pay the penalty and postpone payment of their taxes.-Anderson Tribune.

"I kept getting headaches and having to go to bed," continues Mrs. Williams describing the troubles from which she obtained relief through the use of Cardui. "My husband, having heard of Cardui, proposed getting it for me. "I saw after taking some | Cardui ... that I was improving. The result was surprising. I felt like a different person. "Later I suffered from weakness and weak back, and felt all run-down. I did not rest weU at night, I was so nervous and cross. My husband said he would get me some Cardui, which he did.
