I MEMORY VERSES?15, 15. | GOLDEN TEXT?"Without faith It ; Impossible to please God.'?Heb. 11:8. The Old Testament closes with prophecy; the New Testament open with the announcement of the fulfil ment of that prophecy. Thus bot Testaments are characterized In thl lesson: The Testament, prophecy tho New Testament, fulfillment 1 is clear from our Lord's own word that John the Baptist fulfilled this 01 Testament prediction, (Mat. 17: 1< 13). It may be that a more Uteri fulfillment lsc still future, preceedin Christ's second inning. Our attention is first drawn to th persons through whom God fulfills hi ! nrnmlo, I L'lU.knl |/?v/uaaov. <-avuai ma aiiu were both righteous. By that Is nc ireant that they were either sinles or perfect?no human being is tha ?but that they were parents whos whole heart, mind, and strength wer dedicated to the will and service c God. Zacharias' unbelief shows tba he was not sinless. This is the kind of people tbroug whom God is willing, and ready eve today to fulfill his promise and bles the world?not through perfect pec pie, but through those who are cot stantly striving after perfectloi There is no limit to the blessings Go j will confer upon the world throug ! us if only we will not touch the glorj . The glorious vision and messag i came to John when he was perform lug his duty. And so It is alwayt While shepherds watch their flock the angel comes. We must not for get that Elizabeth also in her modes! humble seclusion was used to bles ; the world just as much as Zacharia who was exercising a priestly functioi so high that the opportunity came t< a priest but onco in a lifetime. Goc chooses the weak things as well a: the great things: D. L. Moody, the nn educated shoe clerk, as well as Paul the scholar. So Isaac was a quie man and dwelt in tents. The next thing to which our atten tion is the content of the prophecy First, it concerns a child. Zachariai ard Elizabeth were childless. It ii no sin to be childless provided that < law of nature is violated. It is a sac thing to be cnlldless. At least it wai so considered in uid Testament days Would that it werp considered so to Jay! A revival of the mother lnstinc is needed. This child was to be an extraordin ary child?well every mother's cbtlc is wonderful! This child was to gt before the Lord and prepare his way just as your child may follow after th< Lord and walk in his steps?a worth] career for both John and your child and every child. Why should we noi hold this ideal constantly befon childhood? Upon tho promised child was to resi the vow of the Nazarite. That mean two things: Absolute prohibltior from intoxicants, and entire dedlca tion to God. Can you think of an) two things more uesirable for youi child, for every child? These par ents had an ideal before them foi their child, and that was a tremend ous help. Have you? Or do yoi bring your child up at random? Star today with an ideal. Let it be high let it be the highest, even Christ. The mission of John, the Baptist was to be perormed by the aid of th< Holy Spirit. Is there not a subth contrast hero between the prohlbitioi of intoxication and the filling witl the spirit? Just as the person unde the influence of intoxicating liquor li governed and controlled by such splr Its. so the Christian worker is to be come so fulfilled with the spirit tha every part of him?intellect, sensibili ties, Will, feelings, are under thi spirit's control. This spiritual equip ment is what is needed for Christiai workers today, "Not by might, nor b; power, but by ray Spirit, saith tin Lord." Because the Baptist was spirit-fill ed, he was enabled to turn the heart of the children towards their fathers Doubtless the Jews had become taint ed with the idolatry of the surround ing nations so that they had *to somi extent forsaken the faith of the ps triarchs. Spirit-filled men are ncede< tcday to turn the hearts of the pret ent generation back towards th< faith once delivered unto the saints Every Christian has the Holy Spii it. Just as Egypt has the river Nile but every Christian does not have th< fullness of the Spirit, any more thai Egypt always has the overflow of th< Nile; and just as the overflow of thi Nile means a bountiful harvest t( Egypt, so the infilling and overflow ing of the spirit In the believer mean: a bountiful harvest of fruit unto eter nal life. It is strange, is it not. that Zachat ias should doubt in the presence o this heavenly visitor! Surely on< should believe in the presence of sucl a sign as this. There are people tr day who say that they would believ if they could hear a voice from tin otner shore speaking to them, or i one should come to them from th other life. Did the Jews believe evei though Lazarus came back to then Troni the dead? No. If we believ not the scriptures, neither would w he persuaded in the presence of s supernatural a sign as this. Zacha -ias continued ministrations. Spiritual Needs. Faith is not merely trusting flod t ;rre for our spiritual needs. That i only part.

I regard Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Hoot as the best medicine for kidney and bladder trouble I have ever taken and I will always recommend it to all that are afflicted with bladder or kidney trouble. For eleven months I was atflFeted with Wdney and bladder trouble In violent form. The symptoms In my case were fearful. During all this time I was being treated by the best and foremost doctors of the country, all of them failing to afford me the slightest relief and I continued to grow worse all the time and while 1 had utmost confidence in their treatment, it seemed that the time had come in my case when I must try other remedies, consequently, I resorted to the use of Swamp-Koot an<1 before I had taken three small bottles, every pain and symptom had completely disappeared. For any form of kidney trouble, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Hoot is the medicine to use. I have never known It to fail in a single case. Very truly yours, L. M. HUNTER, R. F. D. No. 1. Morton, Miss.

BULLETIN FROM PUBLISHERS Postal Committee of the A. N. P. A. Calls the Post Office a Badly Managed Business. Washington.?The protest of the publishers against the proposition to increase second-class mail rates as the congressional post office commission desires Is growing Btronger dally. The Illinois Daily Newspaper Publishers' association tegistered Its objections recently, and now the American Newspaper Publishers' association's postal committee, of which the chair man i? uvu oeiiz ui uie .>ew iur?. World, has Issued the following bulletin: "The extent -to which the post office department does not carry second-class matter Is well revealed In the following abstract of inquiry of publishers conducted by house committee on expenditures in the poBt office department (William A. Ashbrook, chairman) concerning the volume, weight and handling of the output of publications entered as mail matter of the second-class for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1911: " 'Inquiry was made of all publishers, approximating thirty thousand, of which nearly seventeen thousand are weekly publications. " 'More than ten thousand returns were received, embracing sixty-six plus per cent, of all tonnage of publications. " 'The publications reporting represent an annual output of more than six and one-half billion copies, the tvelght of which was one and threejuarter billion pounds. " 'These publications delivered by 1 mail in such period weighed 633,012,102 pounds. " 'They delivered by their own carders, newsboys, and news companies 1 540.46C.574 pounds, of which an unas- i ertained percentage was carried to i iestination by express and other rail shipments outside the mail. They deIvered by express. 202,729,510 pounds, md by other rail shipments 121,491.748 pounds. The rate by express and all varies from V4 to 1 cent per lound, but the bulk of these shipments went at a rate of 14 to cent )er pound. " 'The post office for the year endng June 30, 1911, handled 951,001,169, and excluding one-half million :ounds free in county matter, it revived one cent per pound.' "All this goes to add to the aburdity of the proposed Hitchcock legslation doubling the second-class rate : rom one to two cents per pound, and j Imiting the 'privilege' to publications | hat. carry as much reading matter as | hey do advertising. "The proposition was stupid enough hen the postal deficit reached $17,- j 00,000 two years ago. It becomes reposterous in face of a surplus. "What business has a transports- I ion corporation, which is all the post ffice is, to prescribe how a business hall be conducted? "Newspapers cannot afford to exand their columns beyond the call f the day's news, nor can they be xpected to control the requirements f their advertisers who have a right o reach the public as copiously as hey care to. "It cannot be assumed that such pgislation will ever get by congress. | iut publishers are requested to fight he theory that the right to send their | 1 iutput by mail is a "privilege." The ! 1 igures show it is not. "The post office is a badly maniged business. That is all. We hould fight its dictation, its censor hip and its inefficiency." Brigand Also a Patriot.
