compressed to a liquid and the other a
liquid that turns Into a smoke-like gas
when released into the air, are car
ried on the policeman's back. By
turning a valve on the gun, the op
erator may prepare to discharge ei
ther gas or a combination of the two.
When the trigger Is pressed, the
gas Is projected several feet In a vol

the tcnks. Flexible metal tubes con

The smoke gas may be used to con
fuse criminals or rioters, as well as
to shield a police squad from the
eyes of gunmen, while the tenr gas

continued reslstence.
The gas may be directed through
the keyhole, under the door or
through a hole bored by a pistol bul

hideout. In several respects, the

and -which cannot be directed with
as great accuracy.
Piratical Skua
Were It not for the fact tint a
sanctuary has been reserved where
this bird may not be disturbed, the
great 6kua, of the Shetland* and the
extreme north of the Scottish main
land, would doubtless face extinc
tion. For its misdeeds led to a spe
cial decree Issued by the secretary
for Scotland, ordering It to be re
moved from the schedule of the wild
bird protection act of 1888. The
predatory habits of this bold bird
??obber were responsible for the de
cree discriminating against It. It
has been accused and proven guilty
of the killing of lambs; attacking
sheep and murdering weaker birds
on sea and loch.

Age 13
Old enough for strong drugs/
It is not wise to give a
laxative of adult
strength to a child,
just because you give
it less often or in less
amounts.
Slomach upsets and bowel troubles
of growing children can often be traced
to this single mistake.
There is a better way to relieve
those occasional sluggish spells or
constipation in a child of any age:
Use a liquid laxative containing
senna (a /inJura/laxative). California
Syrup of Figs has the right amount
for children's use, and this rich, fruity
syrup does not harm or upset a child's
system.
Doctors advise liquid laxatives,
and hospitals use the liquid form.
Almost nny child who has been
convalescing in the hospital usually
comes out with bowels working liko
a well-regulated watch.
Make the change now to pure,
California Syrup of Figs instead of
harsh medicines, you won't risk any
more violence to your child's appetite,
digestion, and general physical condi
tion. Thoso little upsets and com
Rlaints just disappear as a rulo and
le child is soon normal and happy
again.
TIIE "LIQUID TEST." First:
select a liquid laxative of the proper
strength for children. Second: give
tho dose suited to the child's age.
Third: reduce tho dose, if repeated,
until tho bowels aro moving without
any help at all.
An ideal laxativa for this purpose
Is the pure California Syrup of Figs,
but be sure tho word "California
is on the bottle.
Eternal Truth
It Is cheaper to keep ponce than It
til to "make" It later.

IC Prayer as Fellowship With God.
I. Falsa Prayer (vv. 5. 7. 8).
1. Praying to he soon and heard of
(v. r>) . To go through the net
of praying -with such nn object Is to
play the hypocrite. In praying, the
soul Is dealing with God; therefore, ro
engage In It to attract men's attention
is blasphemy. Many of the prayers
uttered In the public sanctunry are
false, for there Is more consideration
given to what the people think than to
what God thinks. Men who thus pray
got a reward, but not from God.
2. Using vain repetitions (vv. 7, 8).
This does not mean that we should
ask but once for the tiling desired, for
we have examples of Christ and I^aul
praying throe times for the same thing.
(Matt. 2G :39-4G ; 2 Cor, 12:7, 8), >tit
rather It means the use of meafiing
less repetitions, their reiterations be
coming empty sounds. To thus pray
Is heathenish. The heathen nations
In their worship of Idols engage In
senseless babble, an example of which
we see in the priests of Rnal on Mount
Caruiel (I Kings (18:20).
II. True Prayer (v. G).
Since true prayer Is ? definite
transaction of the soul with God. the
communion of the human personality
with the divine personality, we should
have a real desire for fellowship with
God and then go to meet him in secret.
Ufe tor its fullest development
needs both solitude and companion
ship. Solitude alone makes one mo
rose, while constant companionship
makes one shallow. God who made us
knew what our natures required,
therefore he commands both public
and private prayer (Heb. 10:25;
Matt. 0 :G). We should have our closet
prayers, when all tho world, its carcs
and pleasures, is shut out, and we are
shut In with God. We should nlso
meet with God's children to pray.
III. A Model Prayer (vv. 9-15).
This was given in response to the
disciples' request that the Lord would
teach them to pray (Luke 11:1). it
Is not, therefore, strictly the Lord's
prayer, but the model prayer for the
disciples. It Involves:
1. A right relationship (v. 9). One
must be in such relationship as to he
able to say "Our Father." Only those j
who have become children of God by
faith In Jesus Christ (Gal. 3:20) can
pray aright.
2. A right attitude (vv. 9, '10)
"Hallowed be thy name." When one
realizes that he has been delivered
from the power of darkness nnd trans
lated Into the kingdom of his dear
Son (Col. 1 :13) by being made a child
of God, he ennnot help pouring out his
soul In gratitude and praise, intense
ly longing for the kingdom? that Is,
the righteous rule of Christ on the
enrth.
3. A right spirit (vv. 11-13).
a. That of trust which looks to God
for the supply of dally bread. We are
dependent upon him for our dally
food. With all man's boasted prog
ress, he ennnot mnke a harvest.
b. That of love which results In
forgiveness of others. God will not
listen to the prayers of the one who
has nn unforgiving spirit.
c. That of holiness which moves one
to pray not to he led Into temptation.
Such n one longs to be delivered from
the Kvll One.
IV. Paul's Prayer for the Ephe
slans ( Fph. 3:14-21).
1. To whom made (vv. 14, 15). Ft
wns to the Father of the Lord Jesus
Christ.
2. For whnt he prayed (vv. 10-19).
a. For the strengthening of the In
ner man by the Holy Spirit (v. 10).
b. For Christ's Indwelling (v. 17)
The human personality needs the
i|ulckenlng of the Spirit In order that
It might bo a fit place for Christ to
dwell.
c. That they might be rooted and
grounded In love (v. 17). The only
wny that real love can flow from the
human heart Is through Christ's In
dwelling.
d. The apprehension of Christ's
love (vv. 18. 19). This love. In Its
depth, hrendth, width, nnd height,
transcends huninri understanding.
3. The triumphant assurance that
rhls will be realized (vv. 20, 21). This
realization, which Is beyond human
ability to even think, Is to be accom
plished by the Indwelling of the Holy
Spirit.
Whnt W? l.ivf) For
We may say what we will, and pro
fess whnt we will, that which we Mvo
for determines whose we are nnd whnt
?re nre. "For me to live Is Christ,"
cried St. Paul. As other men live for
gain or plensure, the Christian Is
meant to bo a man who lives for
Christ.

Crochct Motif
for Bedspread
A bedspread In crochet Is n work
of art, attracts attention and fre
quently becomes an heirloom. A
spread crocheted In one piece be
comes cumbersome as the work pro
gresses. How much simpler to cr i
diet one motif at a time and then, as
semble the motifs to complete spread.
Watch your work grow when it can
be taken along with you to social
gatherings.
The above illustration represents
the "Snow f lake" motif and how It
shows up when put together. This
motif when made of carpet warp
measures six inches. Thirty-two mo
tifs can he made from one pound of
warp. This is only one of the -0
motifs shown in our book No. '27 on
motif bedspreads. These motifs can
also be used to make match sets fur
bedroom: curtains, pillows, chair
backs, scarfs, etc.

African "Wirele??"
The "bush telegraph" of African
native tribes is still a mystery to
whites in the Interior of Africa, al
though radio has robbed It of its one
time value as a conveyor of impor
tant w#>rld news to remote outposts.
In spite of differences of language,
the negro tribes are able to convey
complicated messages clear across
Africa by relays of drums. It was
thus that many a white man learned
of the death of Queen Victoria and
the fall of Khartoum weeks before
they had confirmation of the hews.
No white man has ever learned the
code, although the drums are used
as frequently as ever for carrying
messages between tribes.
Household Hint
When preparing fruit salad, sprin
kle bananas, pears, and apples with
lemon juice or marinate them with
french dressing as soon as they are
cut. This prevents that undesired
discoloration.
