TWICE-TOLD TESTIMO V Clinton People Are Doing All They Can for Fellow Suferera. Clinton testimony has been pub lished to prove the merit of Doan’s Pills to others in Clinton who fuffer from bad backs and kidney ills. Lest any sufferer doubt this evidence of merit, we produce confirmed p^oof —statements from Clinton people who again endorse Doan’s Pills—confirm their former testimony. Here’s a Clinton case: Mrs. Joe Chandler, 61 Florida St., says: “The first symptom I had of kidney trouble was backache. When I swept, sharp pains shot down from the small of my back and fairly drove me wild. I was nervous and had pains in the back of my head. My kidneys didn’t act right ^t all. I also had dizzy spells and would near ly fall. I heard about Doan’s Pills and got a box. The first gave me relief and two boxes cured me.” (Statement given November 19,1914). On January 21, 1922, Mrs. Chand ler said: “Time has not changed my opinion of Doan’s. They cured me of an attack of kidney trouble and I have not been bothered since. I gladly confirm all I said before.” 60c., at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y.

JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus* First Fol lowers. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC—What It Means to Follow Jesus. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Winning Others to Christ. Through the testimony of John tha Baptist, his disciples Were pointed te Jesus. This same testimony he gave the previous day, but he was not ashamed to repeat his sermon. His theme was the Lamb of God, the sln- bettrer of the worlds I. Two of John’s Dlsclplos Follow Josua (vv. 35-37). As a result of the Baptist’s testi mony two of his disciples left him and followed Jesus. One of these disciples was Andrew (v. 40), and presumably the other was John. When the Baptist pointed out Jesus as the Lamb of God, tha long-expected Messiah, these dis ciples sought further acquaintance with Jesus. In view of John's request, they looked upon the Lord. This look was sufficient to Induce them to tollaw Jesus. They believed. II. The Two Diaolplea Abiding With Jeeus (vv. 38, 39). 1. Jesus’ Question (v. 38), When Jesus saw the disciples following He most kindly Inquired as to their object 2. The Disciples’ Reply (v. 89). They answered his question by Inquir ing as to His dwelling place. Their reply showed their desire to go apart •privately where they could disclose their hearts to Him. Knowing their hearts. He Invited them to His place of abode, III. The Disciples Bringing Othsrs to Jesus (vv. 40). The very genius of Christianity is self-propagation. The usual method Is to begin with those nearest us—home folks and relatives—and pass out to ever-widening circles. The disciples who were with Jesus in blessed fellow ship go at once to tell others of the priceless treasure they have found. 1. Andrew Brings Peter (vv. 40-42). 'This Is a bearftiful sight of brotherly affection expressing itself in bringing another to Christ. The best place to begin our testimony for Christ is among our kinsfolk (Luke 8:39). This was a great piece of work for Andrew, for Peter became one of the pillars of the church of God. 2. Philip Bringing Nathaniel (w. 43-46). Christ found Philip the follow ing day as he would go /orth into Gali lee. Philip followed Him in response to a personal invitation. As soon as Christ found Philip, Philip found Na thaniel and witnessed to him concern ing the messiahshlp of Jesus. He said unto him, “We have found Him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets did write, Jesus of Nazareth” (v. 45). Nathaniel was somewhat skeptical, but he w^as honest.

The ona who Is honest when brought into tha presence of Jesus will soon have all doubts removed (John 7:17). IV. Nathaniel, Seeing and Hearing Jesua, Testifies to His Divinity (vv. 47-51) As soon as Nathaniel saw and beard Jesus all his doubts rolled away. Ha who acts upon the light given shall see greater things (vv. 50. 51). Ajogels ascending and descending upon the Son of Man with the open heavens, shows that Jesus Christ is the means of communication between earth and heaven (Heb. 10:19, 20; Kph. 2:18; Gen. 28:12). This narrative concerning the expe riences of the first disciples exhibits the followkig stages of Christian expe riences : 1. Hearing About Jesus (v. 80). How important it is that the minister and teacher have a proper conception of Jesus as the sacrificial Lamb, the sin-bearer of the world. ° 2. LooMng Upon Jesus (v. 80). It Is necessary*that the sinner definitely fix his attention qpon Jesus. 3. Following Jesus (v. 37). It Is not enough to merely look upon Him. There must be definite efforts to fedow after, to Inquire of Him. 4. Abiding With Jesus (v. 39). Those who earnestly look upon Jesus and in quire after Him He welcomes Into blessed fellowship. 5. Witnessing for Jesus (w. 41, 45). The first thing the one does who has come to Jesus is to begin to witness for Him. 6. Bringing Others to Jesus. The chief delight of the one who has come to know Jesus by a personal experi ence is to bring others to Him. FOR SOLICITOR B. V.
