THE UTTLK (ill-T Continued from Page Two see the other boat approaching their landing. "we wont miss it much." said Beu Israel. "This boat of your father's h? smaller than the others but it is much faster. "Yes." responded Judah," and we are not sor near the shore either and can get the breeze better. 1 won der." he laughed, as the boat leaned over under the freshening wind. "I wonder what made mother, think about that lunch? We won't have time to be bothered about such a little thing as lunch." "So." chuckled Ben Israel, "and besides everybody else will have lunch along and should we feel hun-\ gry we could get something tj eat from someone." "I have no doubt," added Jtu'.ah, "that uncle Andrew and Uncle Peter have brought plenty along in their boats. I've a good mind to throw this away." And he readied to ward the lunch lying on. the stern seat erf the boat. Hold on," ad vised Ben Israel. It's only a little lunch ? but some one might need it, you know. You'd better take it along." To this agreed Judah. and soon the boys hud forgotten ull about the lunch in their interest in sailing the boat ami their anxiety to get to the ether side of the lake so as to miss nothing. The other boats were going slower now, for they had drawn closer to shore, and were not ! catching the breeze. So when the boys drew up to the landing in the little cove under the steep shore. Jesus and His disciples were Just going up from the water's edge. "My what a crowd." exclaimed Judaic uk- taking the luiu-h he and , lien Israel started up the steep bank,' "It's the largest I think that I ever saw." "Yes." said Hen Israel. as the, boys mingled with the people going up the steep pathway. "You know its just about Passover, Judah, and people are getting ready to go up to Jerusalem." "They must be mighty eager to hear what Jesus of Nazareth has to say to ci/me out here to this desert ?place in such great crowds, and romo of them look tired out already, Judah replied. "It isn't so much what he says as what he does," laughed Ben Israel. "If you'll mingle with this crowd for awhile you'll find out that many of them have relatives who have been healed by this Prophet of Naz areth. I tell you, Judah, it is what he does for litem, and not what he says that attracts their attention." By this time the boys had reached the top of the steep ineline and had .thrown themselves down upon the, soft green grass. A short distance away sat Jesus up a great boulder, and around him stood l?is nearest disciples. Judah and his friend easily recognised Peter and Andrew, and by them stood another riian whi/m Jesus called Philip. "Look. Judah," spoke up Hen Is rael, "did you ever see anything more wonderful?" And he waved his hand toward the lake. There on ttv hillside stood hundreds and hun dreds of men, women and children. They were all dressed in bright and gay colors, and as Judah told his mother afterwards they looked like immense flower beds. "Why there are so many of them," replied Judah. "that I don't see how Jesus can do anything for them ? there are too many, and he hasn't got a thing that I see with him to give them." And Judah glanced toward the boulder on which the Prophet sat. Ami" as he did he noticed his Uncle Andrew coming toward film. "Why, hello, boy," called out An drew. "How did you happen to be here? "We came across in father's boat," spoke up Judah. Doth of us wanted to see Jesus. "Well, there he Is up yOtlder on' the boulder. lie's going to com-', inence teaching In a moment. Hut what's that you've got there Judah." "Only a little lunch mother In sisted on my bringing." the boy re plied." "Well, you're lucky." answered his uncle, "for -o far as 1 can see* no one else has brought a thing j along." Den Israel chuckled. "Much good this lunch will do anybody else but ourselves. Why It's too small to; be shared with anyone else. That's the way. you know. Borne things we have are too small to be useful. Tin* two hoys sat quietly watching the crowd as Andrew moved away. Soon the Prophet of Nazareth raised his hand and commenced to teach the multitudes. The people stood; spellbound. As far as the boys could see the crowd reached, and no one moved. Hour after hour passed. Afternoon came on, still the people did not move. Finally, with a ges ture of weariness Jesus turned to Philip and said: "Whence shall we get bread enough to feed so many." "Why, Master," spoke Philip in astonishment," it would take over thirty five dollars worth of bread to give every one even a little piece ? and there's net that much money in our party ? besides there's no place to buy a thing." Jesus looked around upon the an xious faces of his_ disciples and smiled. Truly ho had asked of them J what seemed impossible. Then Ju dah heard his Uncle Andrew speak. There was a question in his voice, j "There is erne lad here. Master, who had a small lunch with him ? j 1 five loaves and two small fishes, but, | "he added slowly," what Is that pit iful amount among so many." "Bring him here to me," directed ?Jesus, and as Andrew turned away .in search of Judah, Jesus said to the other disciples, "Make the people sit down on the grass in orderly groups ? say in groups of fifty and a hundred." Judah. closely followed by Ben Israel soon found himself by the . side of Jesus the Prophet. "May I have your lunch for these folks," he heard the prophet say. Juduh looked up. There was a friendly smile playing over the face of the great teacher. "But ? but" he stammered." this lunch is so ve ry small ? practically nothing sir and ? and." But Jesus interrupted him. "Just l"t me have it, please, and then watch what I can do with even such a r mull thing.'* The five loaves and tli" two small fishes were spread out _upou the rock. Theu Jesus began to hand out fishes and bread to his dis .ciples and they in turn to the multl ' tudes. An hour passed. "Has ev erybody had enough." asked Jesus. Andrew nodded. "Well then," spoke Jesus, "gather up what is left over lh:ii nothing be wasted." A thrill ran through Judah as the [ Prophet turned to him ? "You were ' the only one in all this crowd who had anything that 1 could use," he said. | But ? but." stammered Judah, *'lt , was so very little." "Yes," replied the Prophet "It was very little ? but in my hands It became much and" he added, "as he put an one arm around Judah. and the other around Ben Israel, "if you will but give me yourself, I can do still greater things with you." i ? ? ? ? ? ?

"Where the lle*t Clothes *j Come From" ^ !?1vV?VW-VV-VVhW?W?VVhV%AA.V A GOOD LAXATIVE Black-Draught Recommended by an Illinois Lady, Who Says It Helps Her. ? "Fine for the Liver." St. Elmo, III. ? "I have used Black- 1 Draught for three years," says Mr*. I J. W. Boyd, a w?U-known member of ; this community. "I was visiting a friend who had used it for some time. I was in need of a laxative and I had a burning in my stomach. 1 was con Fti paled. She gave me a dose of Black-Draught and it helped me, so 1 U3ed it from then on. It certainly benefited me. I think it is fine for the liver, too. I am glad to recommend it. '?One day our pastor was visiting us, and he said nis system seemed cloprged and asked me to give him something to take. I gave him Black Draught. He was much pleased with the results and bought a package, himself." Constipation forces the system to absorb poisons that Bhould be thrown y.t, causing pain, discomfoi-t and tend ing to undermine your health. Black Di aught helps to relieve this condition by acting on the bowels, and by regulating the liver when it is torpiu, thus helping to drive out many poi sons in an easy, natural way. Don't take chances! At the first in dication of constipation, take Black Draught. Costs only a cent a dose. Your local druggist, or dealer, sells Black-Draught.
