Help to Save Nation's Food Supply In this time of high cost of living, ev erybody should use all possible means to prevent waste and to help save food. No one means can be more effective than a vigorous campaign to exterminate rats which destroy over two hundred million dollars worth of foodstuffs annually. Keep garbage In rat-proof cans, stop up their holes, and above all exterminate them with Stearns' Paste, which can be bought for a few cents at any store. A two ounce pox will usually rid a house or barn of every rat. It destroys mice, cockroaches and waterbugs as well. Adv. Faith Was Weak.

At last he lamented: "De lack ob faith of yo niggers Is scandalous and sinful, and makes my heart sore and weary, and afeared for your souls!

GIvg the Wheat to the soldiers, but give me POSTTOASTIES (Made of corn) INITOTIONAL StiNMrsoiooi Lesson (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D. D., Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (Copyright, 1917, Wear.ern Newspaper Union.) LESSON FOR OCTOBER 14. RETURNINu FROM CAPTIVITY. LESSON TEXT Ezra 1. GOLDEN TEXT The Lord hath done great things for ua; whereof wo are glad. Psalma 126:3. Israel went into captivity because of her sins. The time of her disciplinary process was about to end, as its pur pose was now accomplished: namely, the cure of Israel's idolatry. Ever since the Babylonian captivity the He brew people have been worshipers of the one God. Monotheism has stood forth as a vital characteristic The main reason for the Jews' maintenance of racial identity in spite of their na tional dislocation and the breaking up of their social ties, is the unity of their faith, around the one God. I. The Proclamation of Cyrus (vv. 1-4). (1) The Time of (v. 1). The first year of Cyrus; that is the first year after his conquest of Babylon. (2) How It Was Brought About (v. 1). The Lord stirred up his spirit. The Lord often uses very unlikely agents in the accomplishment of his purposes. There is nothing too hard for him. He can readily use a heathen king to accomplish his purpose. He can find a way of approach to any heart. Likely Daniel was the agent used to bring the matter to the king's attention. Daniel was still the Influ- ' entlal prime minister of Babylon. From his study of the prophecies of Jeremiah (Jer. 23:12rlsa. 45:1; com pare Daniel 9:2), he knew that the time was near for the return of the people to their own land, so he likely brought the matter to the attention of the king and persuaded him to thus favor his people. (3) Its Contents (w. 2-4). (a) A confession of the true Ood (vv. 2, 3). ne acknowledges him to be the God of heaven, the Most High, the Supreme God, a God of goodness. He declared, "He has given me all the kingdoms of the earth," and that God had with au thority laid upon him the charge of building him a house at Jerusalem. (b) A Genersus Permission to Israel (v. 3). All who desired to go up to Jerusalem and buiid the Lord's house were permitted to go. He even com manded the blessing of the Lord to be upon them. (c) A Positive Co-Operation (v. 4). None were obliged to go up, but a pos itive obligation was laid upon those who did not go up to render assistance to those who did. They were to aid in the building of the house of God by giving money, beasts and goods. It was more than a free-will offering, an obligation In addition thereto. The ob ligation was even wider than the peo ple of Israel. The heather were asked to render aid. II. Response to the Proclamation of Cyrus (vv. 5, 6). (1) By Israel (v. 5). Strange to say the decree of Cyrus was not met with great enthusiasm. Only a smalr num ber, chiefly from Judah and Benjamin, returned (v. 5). For most of them It meant giving up business interests, for they had settled down to the regular callings of life. Besides the sacri fice of business interests it Involved great risks as to the future. The en tire company, Including servants, was about fifty thousand (2:64). Of this company we note the following divi sions; first, chiefs of the fathers of u uuuii uuu jjtriijumiu, uiui io iwuh" trates; second, priests and Levites, leaders in religion; third, skillful ar tificers, head workmen. (2) By Their Neighbors (v. 6). This response was apparently more hearty than that of the Jews themselves. Their neighbors gave freely of gold, sil ver, beasts and goods. God had not only graciously disposed the heart of Cyrus toward his people, but they found peculiar favor from their neigh bors, so that their wants were abund antly supplied. III. Restoration of the Sacred Ves sels (vv. 7-11). These vessels had been carried away to Babylon many years before. Little did Nebuchadnezzar re alize that he would put into safe keep ing the vessels which would be needed at this time. They were carefully num bered and turned over to the proper officers. Except for their desecration in Belshazzar's feast, they were none the worst for having been carried away. These were brought up to Jerusalem from Babylon. Poverty. Poverty is only contemptible when it is felt to be so. Doubtless the best way to make our poverty respectable Is to seem never to feel it as an evil. Bovee. Love's Secret. Love's secret is to be always doing things for God. and not to mind be cause they are such very little ones. Frederick W. Faber. Honest Endeavors.

Make a Bleaching, Beautifying Cream The juice of two fresh lemons strain ed into a bottle containing three ounces of orchard white makes a whole quar ter pint of the most remarkable lemon skin beautifier at about the cost one must pay for a small jar of the ordi nary cold creams.

A telephone experiment has proved a fallore In Lynn, Mass. The mnnucer noticed that "wrong number" calls were frequent, and he or dered the "hello" girls to call each digit separately and to insert the word "dash" after each one. The method was slow, but the climax was reached when a Lynn man was In a hurry to get a Boston newspaper office. He called for "Boston 3000" and heard a sweet voice at "central" say: "Beach three, dash, oh, dash, oh, dash, oh, dash." That nettled the Lynn man and he called out: "Well, what are you cussing about?" The order was abolished, and no more dashes are being aid by the telephone girls at Lynn. Buffalo Com mercial.
