Hall's Cat arrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby de stroying the foundation of.the dis ease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and asisting nature in doing nts work.

Chicago.) -LESSON FOR AUGUST 23 TMB W1DOINQ FEAST. LESSON TEXT Matt. O l-U. GOLDEN TEXT-"0 AnmlM Jer. atom, that klUeth the prophets, aad atoo eet them that are eent unto her how attmm would I have fathered thy children to gether, even aa a hen ir&t hereto her own brood' under win, aa r would mat," Luke U:M R. V. To, catch the full significance of this parable- which 1 alone recorded by Matthew we seed) to be more or less familiar with the. Jewish pride of race and their feeling of superiority over alt "heathen' or outsiders, and the his tory of their treatment of God's rep resentatives, the prophets. Following upon the parable referred to in our last lesson the Pharisees per ceived that Jesus spake of them and they sought to arrest him (ch. 21:46). In this lesson the figure of the king dom is changed from a vineyard to a feast Relation to His People. I. The King's Invitation Rejected, vv. 1-7. The change of figure Just re ferred to suggests not alone an occa sion of festal joy (Luke 14:16), but also Christ's relation to his people, which is that of a husband to his wife (he being the son referred to, see I Cor. 11:12; Eph. 5:24-32; John 3:29). These Jewish leaders and their nation were first to be invited to the mar riage. This had been done by the prophets of old and later by John the Baptlzer. Under this figure of a mar riage our Lord speaks of three differ ent invitations. The first one was re ceived with indifference, but indiffer ence never removes responsibility. The Becond invitation was received with hostility. Nothing more fully reveals the foolishness and hardness of the human heart than the way in which men treat the gracious invita tions of God's love. Wonderful indeed is the forbearance of God. The sin of rejecting the cross, God's offer of grace, is immeasurably greater than that Incurred by those Jews who rejected the "Man of Gall lee." Question of Worthiness. II. The King's Invitation Accepted, w. 8-10. Those invited had Judged themselves "not worthy." Now go to the parting of the ways where people congregate and "gather them in." Our worthiness is in that we accept, and if we reject we are "not worthy." This command to go outside was a prophecy of the time when the Gentiles should likewise be "partakers of grace." Those who finally accepted the king's invitation were both good and bad (v. 10), but the act of acceptance was not an assurance of position as we can see from the last part of the parable. It is sad to think of the many servants of the king who have neg lected his command thus to go forth and recruit the banquet feast Final ly (v. 10) we read that "the wedding was filled." Heaven will not be an empty place. Rev. 7:9-14. III. The Unprepared Quest, vv. 11-14. Every guest was scrutinized by the king. It was a strange sight to see one who had neglected to avail him self of the garment freely provided in which to appear on such an occasion. This robe is symbolical of the robe of righteousness with which God will clothe all who accept his Invitation, Isa. 61:10; Rev. 19:7, 8; Eph. 4:24; Rom. 13:14. For this man to present himself clothed In his own garment was to insult the king, so our own righteousness Is as "filthy rags" in his sight, Isa. 64:6; Phil. 3:9 R. V. When questioned about this act of insolence the guest was "speechless." So like wise will all unbelievers stand one day before the great king. The Teaching of this parable em phasises our privileges in the king dom of God. A full realization of that Kingdom means Joy, gladness and per fect satisfaction. On a previous occa sion Jesus gave up the parable of the Great Supper which so much resem bles this. Both of these parables have to do with the attitude of men to the Gospel invitation. There is the further emphasis upon the nature of the an swer of men to this Invitation. The first Is that of men who are blind to the glory and beauty of that which Is offered to them, though their refusal war not final. Men, still blind, treat this Invitation contemptuously and turn to their own interests, seeking satisfaction, while others shamefully treat the king's messengers. This treatment is followed by swift Judg ment. Once more the Invitation and and a mixed company are gathered, some with worthy and some with un worthy motives. The Master's final words (r. 14) em phasise service and responsibility, The rail was an open, general univer sal one. Those chosen were not only these who came but those who accept ed the conditions laid down. The In different or hostile, and those who ac cepted unworthily were rejected. The Golden Text reveals the heart of the Lord. He deals In sure Judg ment; still his purpose and desire Is to protect and to gather the children sate from all harm. The doom of the city wa pronounced upon it as the result of Its refusal te aoosc this his purpose, . , ARE THESE THE BIRTH PANGS OP DEMOCRACY Chicago Herald. There is only one possible consola tion for the great catasrophe that Eu rope faces for the great hecatombs of slaiiv for the ruin and wreck of battle. It is that the terrible scenes which the world may be called on to witness may be the birth of a newer, greater democracy in all the nations of Europe. How far Europe is from this democ racy is shown by the mutual recrimi nation in which czar and kaiser have been induliring. The czar issued a statement Monday imputing the blame for hostilities to the kaiser. The kaiser in turn, lays the guilt at the door of the czar. Neither mentioned the peo ple as responsible. The idea of the people intervening at such a moment had not occurred to them. Whether Kaiser Wilhelm or Czar Nicholas or Emperor Francis Joseph or some other individual is most to blame for the present unfortunate state of affairs in Europe is not the most important point, as they seem to think. What is supremely important is the strange, the unfortunate, the reprehensible fact that the life and death of Europe lie to a great extent in the hands of these men. Had there orisrinaily been a submis sion of the weighty issues of war and peace to properly convoke parlia ments, such as was witnessed Monday in England when Premier Asquith put the decision squarely up to the repres entatives of the people, would the na tions have rusned as madly to the con flict as their rulers have led them? Would the people have risen as one man and demanded the right to slaughter end be slaughtered? It is most improbable. lhe people of Kurope have not as yet been consulted as to the conflict. They have had the gory dish set be fore them by their rulers and have been invited to partake. Under the circumstances they have rallied to their flags and their fatherlands by a natural instinct of pride and patriot ism. But they have had no choice in the great decision which so vitally concerns them. It is the system that is to blame, the system that is condemned by ev ery step in the march of events. Eu rope is suffering from too much kai ser, too much czar, too much emperor. She is suffering from the fact that the supreme decisions at the most critical moments in her history are in the hands of individuals, who may. by a miracle, be supremely good and wise, but who generally are not. In the midst of the world-wide tu mult the fact stands out in letters of living light that the best safeguard of the world against headlong aggres sion, with its unforeseeable conse quences is more democratic institu tions. There must be no country in which a ruler is so powerful as to substitute the views and impulses of the individual for the decision of the nation on supreme moral questions like wars and treaties. Government by "divine right" is not only an an achronism; it is a constant danger. It matters not how patriotic the mo tives of the kaisers and czars and em perors may be. It matters not that they sincerely believe they are an swering the supreme needs of their country. They are but men. The na tions whose rulers they are must have a broader representation, a fuller voice, a wiser decision at the great critical moments than any individual is fitted to give. This then is the hope and the need: That ifEurope indeed must be drench ed in blood until the gigantic and criminal folly of it all is made an ax iom of history and world polity, there will at least be the compensation to a war-wrecked continent that democrat ic institutions will take a firmer hold on men that in the long event per haps: Her watchmen shall descry from far The young republic, like a sun, Rise from these crimson seas of war. NOT SO STRANGE AFTER ALL, You may think it strange that so many people are cured of stomach trouble by Chamberlain's Tablets. You would not, however, if you should give them a trial. They strengthen and invigorate the stomach and ena ble it to perform its functions natu rally. Mrs. Rosie Rish, Wabash, Ind., writes, "Nothing did me the least good until I began using Chamber lain's Tablets. It is decidedly the best medicine for stomach trouble I have ever used." For sale by all dealers. WIN IN WORLD MARKET 1 -U Hartford, Conn., Aug. 18.

This means full time for Pratt & Whitney's, a concern noted through out the world for the high character of its work and a concern whose pa pers of journeymanship given to an apprentice mean that the holder has an alma mater second to none in ma chine shop training, and mark that will gain him entrance into any ma chine shop in the world. The Chinese contract provides for the equipment of a complete small arms arsenal at Hanyang, near Hankow, China. The arsenal is for the complete produc tion of 100 complete rifles per day, including bayonet and scabbard.
