J & Thur^^ay, Marcli 9, 1933 McCORMICK MESSENGER, McCORMICK, SOUTH CAROLINA PAGE NUMBER TBRER Ly IVfv. CLarles E. Oittiti, ^ JESUS MINISTERING TO THE MULTITUDE Lesson for March 12lh. Mark 6:30-44. Golden Text: Matthew 20:28. The lesson opens with a picture of the Master and His disciples so busily at work ministering to the needs of the many who hurried to sec them, that they had no time for meals. It is then that Jesus sounded His call for a retreat, that they might restore their depleted energies. “Come ;away, all of you,” said He, “to a quiet place, and rest awhile.” Our sorely harassed modern world greatly needs this advice. Relaxation is a lost art. We desperately lack ser enity and poise. Our voices are harsh and high-pitched. Our muscles are taut. Our minds are over-tense and excit ed. William James, the psychologist, uses the expressive phrase, “bottled lightning,” as an apt description of the ex plosive American ‘temperament. Systematic exercise of the body stimulates steadiness of spirit. Well-planned vacations restore one’s balance. Best of all, religious faith brings an inner, untroubled peace. When we share Jesus' boundless trust in God, we are calm and unshakable. But, alas, the Master's quest for rest, like so many of our own attempts today to flee from the world’s tumult, met with frustration. When He and His disciples stepped from the boat upon the lonely shore they had chosen for their escape, a great multitude was there. It was as diffi cult for Jesus to avoid people as it is for “Babe" Ruth. With characteristic compassion He extended His sym pathy to them, for, as Mark in our lesson says, “they were like sheep which have no shepherd. ' And now we see Jesus rising to the emergency of hunger. The day was advanc ing. The place was remote. But Jesus contrived, with the help of the apostles to feed those five thousand famish ed folk with an abundance to spare. How this miracle was actually performed will never be known. It is futile to try to rationalize and explain this famous deed of mercy. The important fact to bare in mind is that it was not a merely physical act, but a spiritual com munion with Him Who is, as John’s gospel tells us, the true and livingJIread. Get Rta of That SORE THROAT! Any little soreness in the throat grows rapidly worse if neglected. Crush some tablets of genuine Bayer Aspirin in some water, and gargle at once. This gives you instant relief, and reduces danger from infection. One good gargle and you can feel safe. If all soreness is not gone promptly, repeat. There’s usually a cold with the sore throat, so before gargling take two tablets to throw off your cold, headache, stiffness or other cold symptoms. Bayer Aspirin relieves neuralgia, neuritis, too. You may use it freely, it does not hurt the heart. TABLETS ARE GENUINE BAYER ASPIRIN WITHOUT THIS CROSS E R WELDM SKIU is what we do when you welding.

How fo train BABY’S BOWELS Babies, bottle-fed or breast-fed, with any tendency to be constipated, would thrive if they received daily half a tcaspoonful of this old family doctor’s prescription for the bowels. That is one sure way to train tiny bowels to healthy regularity. To avoid the fretfulness, vomitinc, crying, failure to gain, and other ills of constipated babies. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is good for any baby. For this, you hat's the word of a famous doctor. Forty- seven years of practice taught him just what babies need to keep their little bowels active, regular; keep little bodies plump and healthy. For Dr. Caldwell specialized in the treat ment of women and little ones. He attended over 3500 births without loss of one mother or baby. Da. W.
