MIND READING BY WIRELESS
Fklr Detected to Be Using Secret
Buzzer Conected With the Side .
Pocket of His Assistant.
While traveling In Ohio last year I
attended a performance In a small
town, where n mind reader was Riving
wonderful exhibition of his powers,
mused a salesman. The mind render,
apparently an Oriental, for he wore a
turban and spoke broken English, was
able to name every object the audience
chose to select for a test; he also
-flamed dates on coins, words, and read
passages in hooks and newspapers; it
was n marvelous exhibition.
The- mind reader's assistant had a
familiar look; he reminded me of a
telegraph operator T had worked with
In the West. Wrhen he came to where
I was sitting. I noticed he kept one
hand in his sidt. pocket. The as
sistant asked me to-give the mind
reading a test.
Pulling. out my union card, I asked
him to name the organization to which
I was a member. It was three min
utes by my watch before the mind
reader answered, "Brotherhood of
, Railroad signalmen." -
The assistant turned away from me
' as. he held my card in such a way as
to bring the side wherehls hand was
fn the coat away from me.
Thirty years as a telegrapher has
made "my hearing wonderfully acute
and I detected faint "Morse signals.
Then I realized in an instant why the
mind reader's nssistnnt kept his hand
tri his coat pocket. He had a wireless
buzzer In there and was signaling the
mind reader. The buzzer was muf
fled with cloth to kill the sound.
I also saw why the mind reader
wore a turban and stood rigid In one
position on a rug. The turban was to
hide the receivers clamped on his ears
and the rug to hide the antenne that
ran under Ihe rug, up behind his back
to the receivers.

LESSON FOR NOVEMBER 11
LESSON TEXT Nehemiah 1.
GOLDEN TEXT "Whatsoever we ask,
wt rprlu0 n f Vitm Kant.cA Isd. Vila
commandments, and do these things that i
are pleasing in hia sight.' I John 3:22. I
Some twelve or fourteen years after
the revival of the worship of Jehovah
under the administration of Ezra, Ne
hemiah led accompany to Jerusalem to
restore the city walls and civil author
ity. The walls and gates of the city
had lain in ruins ever since they were
broken do"-n by Nebuchadnezzar. In
this condition the remnant of the
Jews who had gone back to Jerusalem
were exposed to the dangers of as
saults from the .surrounding enemies.
Not only was this exposure detrimen
tal to the peace and comfort of the
people, but it was a matter of severe
reproach to them (v. 3). Nehemiah
was a man of strong character. Though
occupying a position of high honor and
responsibility In the very center of
the great heathen capitol, the desire to
honor God was uppermost in his h'jart.
He is" an example to all young men,
demonstrating to them that it is pos
sible to be true to God regardless of
the environment fn which he may be
compelled to live. In order for a man
to thus stand, his life must be rooted
In Christ, and these roots our faith
,must be watered and kept alive
through vital commun'on with God In
prayer and study of His Holy Word.
I. Nehemtah Learns of the Afflic
tion and Rpro?ch of the Returned
Remnant In Jerusalem (vv. 1-4).
1. The time (v. 1). It was In a
winter month, November or December,
In the 20th year of Artaxerxes. He
was engaged in the performance of his
accustomed duties as cup-bearer to
the king, when the news came to him
of the deplorable condition of Jeru
salem and the remnant who had gone
there.
2. The cccasion of (w. 2, 3). The
.visit of Nehemiah's brother and certain
men of Judah made It possible for him
to Inquire concerning the state of the
remnant and the conditions of Jeru
salem. They informed him that they
were In great affliction and reproach.
!. 3. The effect upon Nehemiah (v. 4).
He was greatly moved by the story of
the distress of his brethren. Thouch
occupying, a position of honor, and en-r
Joying all that heart could desire, he
keenly took the misfortune of his
brethren to heart. He not only shed
tears of sympathy, tot took these bur
dens in prayer to God. This is the
proper way to sympathize with the un
fortunate. It is manly to weep with
those in distress, and to pray for
those who have need. Jesus wept over
Jerusalem and prayed for his own.
Nehemiah exhibited ihe spirit of true
patriotism. The affliction and shame
of his own people went close to his
own heart. National and racial soli
darity ' constitutes the real basis of
patriotism. The reproach and afflic
tion of a nation is the reproach and
affliction of every member thereof.
! II. Nehemiah's Prayer for Israel
(vv. 5-11). We are taught that In the
midst, of affliction, we should pray.
Nehemiah in this early time practiced
this New Testament direction. 'A
study of his prayer is most helpful.
1. It was earnest (v. 4). ne fasted
j and prayed for several days. When
! men are willing to desist from food
' and turn aside from their occupations
to pray to God. they are unmistakably
In earnest. This Is true fasting.
2. The ground of (v. 5). He plead
covenant relationship and the faith-
i fulness of God In keeping his covenant.
1 It is a good thing always in our pray
ing to plead thus with God. He Is
delighted when we come as children
pleading for the things we need on
the basis of our relationship to him.
3. Unselfish (v. 6). He has as his
supreme object the welfare of Israel.
. Ills personal Interests were not af
fected, either for tetter or for worse,
by the condition -of the Jews in Jeru
salem. Many prayers do not count
with God because they are self-centered.
'
4. Penitent (w. 6, 7). He acknowl
edges that the state of Israel was due
to disobedience to God's command
ments and their corrupt dealings with
God. So completely had he identified
himself with his people that he Includ
ed himself with Israel as having
sinned.
5. The prayer of faith (w. 8, 9).
lie believed the word which God, had
spoken to Moses touching his willing
ness to restore and bless his people,
though he whs obliged to severely
judge them. In our praying, we should
be able to point to some definite prom
ise in God's word, M we plead" with
him. Faith takes God at his word,
and holds him to it. t
C. Definite (vv. 10, 11).
a. ne pointed to the specific people,
as those redeemed by God's powerful
hand.
b. ne asked that God would pros
per his way and grant htm mere In
the sight of the king. This was a
part of wisdom on Nehemiah's part, j
Before going before men for considera- j
tion of Important interests, we should
ask God to prepare their hearts, so that j
they will listen sympathetically to our
plea. This we should do in all things,
and we can do it, when our own hearts
are right, and we see the good of oth
ers and not that of ourselves.
Housekeepers Can Save
$200,000,000 on Food
In these days when the high cost of living-
pinches nearly every home, no waste
should be overlooked. One of the most
flagrant and the most easily prevented, is
the destruction of food by rats. One rat
will often do a hundred dollars' damage of
food and property in a single night, and a
careful estimate gives over J200.000.000 as
the value of foodstuffs destroyed annually
by these pests. Exterminate them with
Stearns Paste and save thin enormous
loss of food. A small box of-Stearns'
Paste costs only 33 cents nnd Is usual
ly enough to completely rid the house of
rats and mice: also effective against cock

It Keeps You Well
Your liver acts as a watch-dog and helps to keep
your system free from poisons, and from the diseases
due to self -poisoning. '
Your health may. depend upon keeping your
liver active.
A purifying medicine is frequently needed, to
stir up your liver into the proper activity, induce the
bowels to act freely and purge the system from del
eterious matter. .
Thedford's Black-Draught has been doing this
successfully for many years, and is today one of the
favorite liver medicines in the South, where liver
medicines are so much used.
Prepared from purely vegetable ingredients,
Black-Draught has none of the bad effects so often
observed from the use of Calomel or other mineral
drugs. -
It acts naturally, promptly, reliably, and has
helped thousands back to a healthy condition of
stomach, liver and bowels.
Black-Draught has been successfully used in
cases of Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Torpid Liver, Bil
iousness, Sick Headache, Backache, Constipation,
etc. Thousands of men and women have written to
tell of its good results. It is a family stand-by for
young and old, in thousands of American homes.
Mr. K. J. McKinney, of Mt. Vernon, Ky.,
writes: "I was a merchant. . .and this kept mo
very closely confined. This confinement brought on
constipation and. . .severe headaches. I lost ap
petite, got very thin and there seemed to be a lump
in my stomach after every mcil. I had THED
FORD'S BLACK-DRAUGHT in stock... I took
down a package io the house. . .and began using it
Regularly. . .The Indigestion soon disappeared. I
rested better. Ketb thing I knew I was gaining in
weight. .-.BLACK-DRAUGHT is without doubt the
best liver medicine on the market."
