McCORMICK, S. C. =E 3E GETTING THE MOST It is imperative with most of us that we get the most, however, it is false economy if we don’t get good quality. In buying foodstuffs there is the added necessity of getting the best for your health’s sake as well as for economy. The sure way is to know where to buy—with whom to place your confidence, and ours is the place with which you will be proud to deal, for we make it to your advantage to trade with us. J. T.

Carson, 945 Concord SL, Beaumont, Texas. *T suffered constantly from constipation. I had headache when I got up in the morning, and I felt dull and sluggish. I hardly ate a meal that my food agreed with me. Frequently I would have gas on my stomach, and felt awfrd. **I read about Black-Draught, and I thought it might help me. After I had taken it a little while, I felt much better. It relieves constipation. I keep it on hand so when I need a laxative I will have it. In the three years I have been taking it, I have never found anything as good for con stipation.” IDFORKS: Black FdnCONSTIPATION imPIMSTTOIteBlUOMIIittl =.Oo«tgOn»gl=PiBt;EgP«g= E-1SG WOMEN who are run-down, nervous, or suffer every month, should take I CARDUL Used for over 50 years. { tail grocery and general merchan dise business.

The French, logical, determined, al lowing nothing to interfere with na tional defense, proceed to build a series of armored cruisers of 23,000 tons each to offset the marvelously efficient German cruisers, called “min iature battleships.” And France will continue building submarines. She knows that airplanes and submarines represent, in the high est degree, the power to punish other nations, and that the nation with power to punish is the one that will not be provoked or attacked. If anybody attacked this nation through the air. It could only burst into tears. It isn’t prepared to resent or punish anything. In Britain a car called the “Rorail,” with two sets of wheels, has been suc cessfully tried on British railroad tracks and highways. On the tracks it rolls on regular steel wheels. Ar rived at the end of its rail Journey, rubber-tired wheels are lowered below the level of the steel wheels, which are inside of the wheels with pneu matic rubber tires. \ And the coach motor bus or truck is ready to leave the rails and finish its journey on the highway. If our railroads used such vehicles, motor trucks and busses could not successfully compete with railroads be tween large cities as they do now. And the value of the railnoads* rights of way would be at least double When a lion goes hunting, jackals follow. When he has eaten his fill they eat. Crime develops the jackals. When a killer had finished his man and left him lying dead in an alley, in the rear of 637 South State street, Chicago, two young men, twenty and twenty-two years old, following the murderer at a distance, stripped the corpse of its clothing as their share. Detective Harold Fogarty got them and the clothing, including the shoes. A photograph shows one of, the youths laughing as the clothing is held be fore them. In connection with Russia’s plan to conscript women for industry, govern ment taking care of the babies while their mothers are at work, you read that this is done because of “the present serious shortage of labor in Russia.” You wish we had that shortage here and wonder how the Russians man age It. Russia’s plan to open gigantic gov ernment nurseries to care for babies while mothers are working in mills, forests, fields, mines or factories, will present problems that not even Stalin can foresee. Separating women from their babies may be a dangerous ex periment, even in Russia. It is pleasant to hear of anyone’s happiness, and you will be delighted to know that Ireland is highly pros perous, “riding the wave of world de pressiou.” In 1930 the Irish exported more than $225,000,000 of goods, which is better than merely shipping money to British landlords. Irish banks are steady, the Irish Free State budget is sound. Those that used to say “the Irish can govern anybody but them selves” may have been mistaken. They can also govern themselves, if you get off their backs. If you ever become well acquainted with a lady named Guillermina Guer rero, or one like her, don’t trifle with her affections. Maximino Aceval did that in Mexico City. Guillermina dressed herself as a boy, found faithless Maximino in a cabaret, dancing with another girl, followed, and shot them both. An opera like “Cavalleria” or “Pag- liacci” represents no exaggeration. The Latin temperament feels every thing, especially neglect, strongly Those that know say the affections are as violent as the jealousy. It must be an exciting life. and 4. and 4.

People in New York, greatest state In population, are too busy to add to population as they did once. The birth rate has fallen 30,000 in sixteen years. Birth control advocates say the state is getting “fewer and bright er babies,” but that is not convincing. To offset the decreased baby crop the general death rate is at its low est for all time. Of 1,000 population, only 11.7 die in a year. Deaths from tuberculosis are diminishing steadily thanks to science. On the other hand, cancer and diabetes gather more and more victims. A boy coulti carry all the books that Lincoln had opened when he was elected President. The qualities bom in his brain, in herited from his father and mother and ancestors 1,000,000 years back, made him what he was. If he had succeeded In his efforts to secure a modest position In the In terior department, Lincoln might have gone through .life unknown. But none the less he would have been Abraham Lincoln.

(©, 1931, Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson (or March 1 JESUS SENDING FORTH MISSIONARIES GOL.DEN TEXT—Therefore said he unto them, the harvest truly is great* but the laborers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth laborers into his harvest. LESSON TEXT—Luke 10:1-22. PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesu's* Helpers. JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus Trying Out His Helpers. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC—Helpers of Jesus. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—Our Missionary Task. The sending forth of the seventy was for a special time and purpose. The missionary enterprise today has much in common with that of that day, but there are certain essential differences which should be recog nized. I. The Seventy Sent Forth (w. 1,2). 1. Appointed by the Lord (v. 1). They went forth not merely because of an inner urge but because of per sonal and direct appointment. Only those should go forth as missionaries who are appointed by the Lord. 2. Sent two by two (v. 1). 1?he pur pose of this was that they might mutually help, counsel, and support each other. 3. The reason for their appoint ment (v. 2). It was the greatness of the harvest and the fewness of the laborers. 4. The force back of missions (v. 2). The disciples were instructed to pray the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers. Prayer Indited by the Holy Spirit has been back of every mission ary enterprise. II. The Seventy Instructed (vv. 3- 16). 1. As to the source of their com mission (v. 3). “I send you.” Every thing depends upon the authority of the commission. No missionary should go forth without the consciousness of being sent by the Lord. 2. As to the dangers confronting them (v. 3). Missionaries thrust forth by the Lord will be exposed to dead ly peril. ,3. As to their support (v. 4). Being sent forth by the Lord, they were to look to him to provide for their need. 4. As to the speed of their mission (v. 4). So urgent was the need of the speedy evangelization of the Jewish territory that the distractions of so cial intercourse were to be omitted. 5. As to behavior in homes where received (vv. 5-9). a. Offer the peace of the gospel (vv. 5, 6). This is to be done regard less as to whether It will be received or not. There is a reflex blessing in preaching the gospel. b. Do not shift quarters (vv. 7, 8). Missionaries should remain in the home where they have been received, content with what is given them. They should not demand better food and more comfortable quarters than are commonly provided. c. Heal the sick (v. 9). These dis ciples were given power to heal the sick. The ministers of Christ should seek to give relief to those in dis tress and use every opportunity to proclaim the gospel message. 6. The awful fate of those who re ject Christ’s message (w. 10-16). Their case is more hopeless than that of Sodom. Those who reject Christ’s messengers reject Christ and reject the Heavenly Father who sent him. Ml. The Return of the Seventy (vv. 17-24). 1. Their report (v. 17). They were highly elated. They found that they could not only heal the sick, but cast out demons also. It is easy even in Christian service to be spoiled by our successes. 2. Jesus’ answer (vv. 18-24). (a) He told them that it was no surprise to him (vv. IS and 19). With prophetic eye, he saw their success as indicating that time when the prince of this world would be over thrown (John 12:31). By virtue of his mighty triumph over Satan, he as sures them that they need have no fear of what should befall them, (b) Real cause for rejoicing (v. 20). He promptly rebuked them, telling them that their chief joy should be because of their heavenly relation, not because of these miraculous gifts, (c) Jesus' ex ultation (w. 21, 22). The conscious ness that soon the victory would be won because God had committed all things unto him and that only as men received him could they know r the Fa ther caused him to rejoice in what was being accomplished, (d) Congrat ulates the disciples (vv. 23, 24). He assured them that they were sharing privileges which had been denied to many of the prophets and kings. By Hit Presence When God possesses us we are pos sessed by his presence, and the Holy Spirit cannot be in us without purify ing our thoughts, desires and motives and so equipping us for his service.— W.
