SUBSCRIPTION RATES: ' One Year $1.00 Six Months .75 Three Months .50 Sunday School Lesson BY REV. CHARLES E. DUNN Judah Taken Captive. Lesson for November 3rd. 2 Kings 25:1-12. Golden Text: Proverbs 14:34. Jerusalem fell under the shatter ing blows of her Babylonian con querors in July, 586 B. C., after a siege lasting only eighteen months. The defenders were weak, and the invaders conducted their oper ations with great energy. Finally the battering rams broke down a portion of the wall, and the enemy soldiers poured through the breach. King Zedekiah and his warriors escaped in the darkness of night, but they were quickly captured and brought before Nebuchadnezzar who, as a terrible warning, slew the king’s sons in his presence, put out his eyes, and then dismissed the desolate monarch to a tragic im prisonment and death in Babylon. But Zedekiah did not suffer alone. No mercy either was shown io the other leaders. The chief priest, his deputies, and the rank ing religious, civic, and military of ficers were hailed, too, before Nebuchadnezzar, and put to death. How many were carried into cap tivity we do not precisely know. But it is clear that the greater portion of Jerusalem’s population was marched off into exile. Only the poorer classes were spared, and their fate was quite as desolate, for the Chaldean troops destroyed the ■city with thoroughness. The temple was stripped of all its precious valuables, and then burnt to the ground. The royal palace, and the homes of the nobles and the wealthy were also burned, and the city walls were razed. Hut Nebuchadnezzar was wise enough not to allow the city to lapse into complete barbarism and decay. So he appointed an ex cellent governor, Gedaliah, who xuled for three or four years with devotion to the finest Hebrew ideals until he was treacherously slain. All through this fateful period Jeremiah, a heart-broken figure, continued his sorrowful prophecies, until, at last, according to tradition, he died a martyr in Egypt at the hands of his country men. x Mjs.

Of course, the newest engine in the low-price car field is still the V-8 engine. Since Ford made it available to all car users (keeping it as economical as cars with fewer cylinders) the Ford V-8 has been the newest engine on the market, and remains the newest for 1936. You may buy a car on minor "talking points"—some specially advertised fea ture "with the car thrown in"—but after all, it is the engine you buy when you buy a car. Hence we put the engine first Other new points about the car make a long list. Its lines are much more beautiful. The hood is longer and sweeps forward over the distinctive new radiator grille, giving the car a length and grace that are instantly impressive. The fenders are larger, with a wide flare. Homs are con cealed behind circular griUes beneath the headlamps. New steel wheels. Ford upholstery — always of sterling quality and excellent taste—is rich and enduring. The appointments of the car have a new touch of refinement There is no question about the increased beauty of the Ford V-8 for 1936. in more practical matters, many improvements have been made — Steering is made easier by a new steer ing gear ratio. The cooling system cir culates 5V2 gallons of water through a new, larger radiator. Natural thermo syphon action is assisted by two cen trifugal water pumps. New style hood louvres permit a rapid air-flow around the engine. Easier, quieter shifting of Ford gears —The gear shift lever now travels a shorter distance. The two qualities you want in brakes — Brakes that stop the car with ease and certarnty. Ford Super-Safety Brakes of the long-tested, fool-proof, mechanical design. Safety — as always —in the electri cally welded genuine steel body. Safety Glass all around at no extra cost. Hun dreds have written grateful letters be cause this glass has protected the safety of their families. A car you can drive without strain all day, if you like, in city or country. Steady, holds the road, responds to the driver's touch like a well-trained horse. You don't have to "push" or "fight" the Ford V-8 —driver and car easily get on terms of good understanding with each other. An engine has much to do with the roominess of a car. Very much indeed. A long engine uses up car space. The compact V-8 engine permits much of the ordinary engine space to be used by passengers. It really is a great car in every way, this 1936 Ford V-8 —the finest, safest, most dependable Ford car ever built Now on display by Ford dealers.

Why do people come home from a hospital with bowels working like a well-regulated watch? The answer is simple, and it’s the answer to all your bowel worries if you will only realir.fe it: many doctors and hospitals use a liquid laxative. If you knew what a doctor knows, you would use only the liquid form. A liquid can always be taken in gradually reduced doses. Reduced dosage is the secret of any real relief from constipation. Ask a doctor about this. Ask your druggist how very popular liquid laxatives have become. They give the right kind of help, and right amount of help. The liquid laxative generally used is Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It contains senna and cascara — both natural laxatives that can form no habit, even in children. So, try Syrup Pepsin. You just take regulated doses till Nature restores regularity. —Adv. further attack. There is one medicine that does these two things and that is Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic! The tasteless qui nine in Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic de stroys the malarial infection in the blood while the iron builds up the blood. Thou sands of people have conquered Malaria with the aid of Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic. In addition to being a noted rem edy for Malaria, it is also an excellent tonic of general use. Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic is pleasant to take and con tains nothing harmful. Even children like it and they can take it safely. For sale by all drug stores. Now two sizes—50c and $1.
