SEND THE MESSENGER TOUR NEXT ORDER FOR JOB PRINTING. WE DO IT RIGHT, AND AT REASONABLE PRICES. Trouble seemed as natural for Paul as did preaching the gospel. A syndicate owned a slave girl who seemed to have the power of divina tion. The evil spirits in this maid showed their knowledge by declar ing that “These men are servants of the most high God. r ' But they kept calling out to the annoyance of Paul and the hindrance of his work. One result was that the men who merchandised on humanity found that their chattel v/as worthless for soothsaying and started an uproar against these men who had part in freeing a life from slavery to an evil spirit. Racial and religious prejudice was stirred up to get back at Paul and Silas with the result that these good men were mprisoned. But no dungeon could cut off their approach to the Throne. Though bleeding from the unjust beating and with feet fastened cruel ly in the stocks, the spirits of these men reached unto God. They be gan with prayer because of the way in which God had permitted them to glorify Him in life and testimony. Soon they involuntarily broke forth into song and their fellow prisoners heard them. This was amazing enough but a still greater event followed in the earthquake which so shook the prison that all became free men. When the keeper of the prison sensed the situation he was about to kill himself, thinking that all the prisoners had run away. Paul ad vises him that all can answer the roll call. The presence of God was recognized and the outcry made “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” The answer is the truth for today: “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ The Saviour was accepted forthwith and testimony was given in the rite of baptism. The new life was further expressed in the activity of penitence as the jailer tenderly washed the stripes of Paul and Silas and furnished them creature comforts.

My object in this talk is to try to make the layman understand his heart better, so he may seek competent counsel at once, if he suspects trouble with this vital organ. Remember, it is not the blood in the big caverns of the heart that sustains the heart-muscle itself. The heart-muscle has its separate arteries and veins, just the same as your leg has. The coronary arter ies of the heart-muscle supply it with blood, and these are, probably, the most responsible vessels within the human being. If a coronary artery becomes plugged up, the heart-wall beyond the obstruction begins to weaken, because it is deprived of food. It may be “plugged” by bacterial processes—the infected heart. This may occur in a rheumatic subject, or in cases of influenze, or a chronic in fected throat—hence the rush to remove tonsils, teeth, etc. Probably obstruction in the coronary arteries is next to valvular dis ease in frequency; but diseased valves make loud heart murmurs—eas ily diagnosed. I have had many patients who knew they had a “leaky heart.” But there is not much, if any, noise about a plugged artery in the heart, and there is much more danger—much more. The principal symptom, WEAKNESS AND SHORTNESS OF BREATH. One fails markedly in coronary disease, and, it takes a physician to diagnose and treat it. Don’t depend on home treatment until it becomes forever too late; and don’t depend on physical ex cises or manipulation-treatments. I’m advising you right.

The corrective is an alkali, which quickly jeutralizes acids. And the best alkali mown to medical science is Phillips vlilk of Magnesia. One spoonful of this harmless, taste- ess alkali neutralizes instantly many imes as much harmful acid, and then the symptoms disappear at once. You vill never use crude methods when once /ou learn the efficiency of this. Go get t small bottle to try. Get the genuine Phillips Milk of Magnesia, the kind physicians have prescribed for 50 years in correcting jxcess acids. 25c and 50c a bottle—any irugstore. A. R. Presbyterian Preaching at Mt.

PRESSLY, v Pastor. &BRUC WORDS An officer of an insurance company invited me to the formal opening of some model tenements which the company has ereetd. “Why should I come to see model tenements?” I asked. For answer he pulled out of his pocket a crumpled sheet of paper, saying, “Here’s an editorial that you wrote nearly fifteen years ago. You pointed out that the insurance companies colle6y millions of dol lars in annual premiums from the poor. You asked why some of those millions should not be used in tearing down old tenements and erect ing decent homes in their place. “We read that editorial in our directors’ meeting. It started the thinking which has resulted in these homes for folks of modest . neans.” Words are mysterious and awe-inspiring. We shoot them into the air, cither by tongue or pen, and most of them perish. 3uc now and then some stray sentence drops into a mind that remembers it, and is influenced by it for many years. Many books, many sermons, many speeches have run in and out of my brain leaving little trace. Yet here are three quite casual remarks that I remember: 1. Said the late Talcott Williams, in a talk which I had with him immediately after my graduation from college: “Never forget the old saying of the Jesuits, ‘A great deal of good can be done in the world if one is not too careful who gets the credit.’ ” 2. Said a prominent business man when I was blue and discouraged because the first concern for which I worked had gone busted: “You are very fortunate to have had a severe disappointment while you are still young. The men to be pitied are those whose disap pointments come in middle life, when it is too late for them to start over again. A disappointment in youth is merely part of the hard ening process that is necessary to make you capable of carrying through.” 3. Said my friend Robert Updegraff: “Never grumble about your problems. They are responsible for the greater part of your income ” Of the three bits of wisdom this last has done me the most good. Whenever I think I am having a tough time I remember that jobs with no worries carry small pay. It’s because I have larger troubles that I draw a larger income. None of these three friends probably gave his remark a second thought. But I have never forgotten them, and I now pass them on in this editorial. Ninety-nine out of every hundred readers will pay no attention. But some day, fifteen years from now, somebody may say: “I read something of yours a long time ago, and it gave me a fresh idea.” That’s the marvellous thing about working with : words..
