Df>ctors know the value of the laxative whose dose can be mea- ' sured, and whose action can thin be controlled to suit your individual need. , \ The public, too, is fast returning to the use of liquid laxatives. People have now learned that a property prepared liquid laxative brings a perfect movement without dis comfort at the time, or after. Dr. Caldwell’s long experience with mothers and babies, and his re markable record of nearly three thousand births without the loss of one mother or child, should give anybody complete confidence in any prescription which he wrote! j But most important of all, a ’ gen He liquid laxative docs pot cause j bowel strain to the;most delicate system, and this is of the utmost > " ‘orttince to expectant mothers and it’/ child. expectant mothers are urged to , 'try gentle regulation cf bowels with [ Dr. CaldwellSyrup Pepsin. It is a delightful tasting' laxative of ; delightful action, made of fresh ■, herbs, pure pepsin and active senna. | Not a single mineral drug; nothing to cause strain or irntatc the. ! kidneys. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is an approved preparation and kept ready for use by all druggists. it by Rfrv. Oiarles £. Christianity and Patriotism. Lesson For May 13th. Matthew 22. Golden Text: Matt. 22:37-39. “Pay therefore what is Caesar’s to Caesar and what is God’s to God.” In these famous words Jesus advises obedience to both God and the state. It is possible, He says, to serve both. But it is perfectly clear that loyalty to God, in the Master’s mind, must take precedence over loyalty to Caesar. It was for His excess of faith in God that our Lord was crucified. Now we live in a day when this fundamental issue is very much to the fore. The agitation aroused by demands of an absolute character, made by the state in opposition to Christian principles, has reached an acute stage. The lines are clear ly drawn. On the one hand are the nationalists who, in the name of patriotism, insist upon an unquali fied conformity to the edicts of the state. On the other hand are the members of the Beloved Commun ity who obey God rather than men. At the present moment the na tionalists have the upper hand. Germany is demanding that the churches renounce their historic faith and accept a pagan substitute binding them completely to the chariot wheels of the totalitarian state. Russia has outlawed organiz ed religion. And while the plight of the Christian Society is not so desperate in other lands, there has been a most menacing suppression of that freedom so dear to the Christian. In the fifteen years since the war there have been more prosecutions for free speech in England than in the half century prior to 1914. And here in America the patrio- teers are in the saddle. When Prof. Douglas Macintosh, of Yale, recent ly applied for citizenship, he said that in the event of war he would follow his conscience in preference to the law of the land. His case was carried to the highest court of our government and he was denied the right to be a citizen. The truth is that the state today, for the ma jority, has taken the place of God. Against this God-state must the followers of the Cross arise in solemn protest. ' and which con tains Four Great Treasures ••••••• • "Vy/fcl-UUCt I ON 1 t A BRAVE MAN SPEAKS THE BOOK OF JOB is a grand book. It does not furnish any ans wer to the perplexing problem of suffering. It does not explain why a good man, Job or any other, should have sorrow visited upon him in a world which is supposed to be under the control of a loving 1 God. What it does proclaim is that | God has staked His reputation on His ability to produce human be ings who can stand anything that fate or fortune may bring; men who will be good without a bribe. It insists that in this trial of cre ative strength and moral goodness God is winning out. “Every man has his price.” says the cynic; but Job did not have his price. He was stripped of his possessions, he lost his health, he had a fool for a wife, and his friends were no comfort to him. But his head though bloody was un bowed. “Even if God does not re ward me, and treats me like a wicked man; even if He has made a mistake about me, or forgotten me, or just naturally has it in for me, nevertheless I stand on my record. I am glad I fed the hun gry and helped people when I could. I have nothing to repent, and I refuse to lie and say that I have. The words of Job are end ed.” It is a brave speech of a brave man, and small wonder that God responded to it, restored him his property, blessed his sons and daughters, and allowed him to live in prosperity for a hundred and forty years. So Job died, being old and full of days. So much for the poetry of the Old Testament, and the drama. To pick up our historical outline where we left it at the end of the 1 last chapter, we must go back to King Solomon, who has built his temple and palaces, written his Proverbs, and grown old, his heart being “turned away” by his harem. With a thousand mothers to look after them the children of a king ought to be properly brought up, but the net results in the Solomon I household were not so good. His i heir, Rehoboam, was a typical rich 1 man’s son, soft, conceited, sure of his own opinion and contemptuous of advice. As soon as it was shown that “Solomon slept with his fath- j ers.” rough and ready soldier named Jeroboam organized an in- jsurrection, demanding that King , Rehoboam lower the taxes and ; conduct himself in a less arbitrary fashion than had his father. The old men w r ho had been Solo mon’s counselors urged Rehoboam to compromise, but the hot-headed young courtiers were all for the Big Stick, and Rehoboam sided with them. This made it all very easy for Jeroboam, who promptly persuaded | the ten northern tribes to separate and elect him their king. Reho- 1 boam kept only Judah and the lit tle tribe of Benjamin.
