For this pur pose, the business of Swift & Company is now divided into three classes: Class 1 includes such products as beef, pork, mutton, oleomargarine and others that are essentially animal products. Profits are limited to 9 per cent of the capital employed in these departments, (including sur plus and borrowed money), or not to exceed two and a half cents on each dollar of sales. Class 2 includes the soap, glue, fertilizer, and other departments more or less associated with the meat business. Many of these de partments are in competition with outside businesses whose profits are not limited. Profits in this class are restricted to 15 per cent of the capital employed. Class 3 includes outside investments, such as those in stock yards, and the operation of packing plants in foreign countries. Profits in this class are not limited. Total profits for all departments together in 1918 will probably be between three and four per cent on an increased volume of sales. The restrictions absolutely guar antee a reasonable relation between live stock prices and wholesale meat prices, because the packer's profit can not possibly average more than a fraction of a cent per pound of product. Since the profits on meat (Class 1 ) are running only about 2 cents on each dollar of sales, we have to depend on the profits from soap, glue, fertilizer (Class 2, also limited) and other depart ments, (Class 3) to obtain reasonable earnings on capital. Swift & Company is conducting its business so as to come within these limitations. Swift & Company, U. S A. m i III SwSOiOOL Lesson (By Rev. P. B. FITZ WATER, D. D., Teacher of English Bible In the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (Copyright. 1918. by Wratprn Newspaper Union.) LESSON FOR SEPTEMBER 1 SOME LAWS OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD. LESSON TEXTS Luke 6:30-38 ; 21:1-4. GOLDEN TEXT Remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, it is more blessed to give than to receive. Acts 20: 35. DEVOTIONAL READINO-II Corin thians 9:6-15. ADDITIONAL MATERIAL FOR TEACHERS-Luke 16:9; Romans 12:8; II Corinthians 9:6-15; Hebrews 13:16; Ezra 1: 2-4; I Chronicles 29:1-5. The principles of ethics which shall prevail in the earth when Jesus Christ shall be king are entirely different from those of the world. The worldly spirit always Inquires as to what gain will accrue from an action or service. Its policy Is doing good for the sake of getting good. Those who have been made partakers of the divine nature, who are really subjects of the king dom, do good because they have the nature and spirit of God, not because they expect something In return. I. Give to Every Man That Asketh of Thee (v. 30). This does not mean that any request that may be made by the idle, greedy and selfish should be granted. Only evil would result from such indiscrimi nate and unregulated giving. Such benevolence would foster idleness and selfishness. Oftentimes the worst thing you can do for a man is to give him money. The drunkard will only spend it for more drink; the gambler will continue his dissipation. The meaning then is, give to the one ask ing the thing which he needs. The man in poverty needs to be given a way to earn his living, rather than to be given money without the necessity of labor. There is that in the human heart which refuses charity, and cries out for a means to honestly gain a livelihood. II. Of Him That Taketh Away Thy Goods, Ask Them Not Again (r. 30). "Ask" here means demand. It doubt less forbids the forcible demanding of the return of that which, has been taken from one III. Do to Other Men as You Would That They Should Do Unto You (vv. 31-34). This ethic puts life's activities on the highest possible ground. He does not say, refrain from doing that which you would not like to be done to you, as even Confucius taught; but to pos itively make the rule of your life the doing to others as you would wish them to do unto you. Loving those who love us, doing good to those who do good to us, and lending to those from whom we hope to receive, is just what all the sinners of the world are doing. The child of the kingdom of Christ is to be different. IV. Love Your Enemies (v. 35). That which is natural to the human heart is to hate the enemy. To love in the real sense means to sincerely desire the good of even one's enemy and willingness to do anything pos sible to bring that good. Such action is only possible to those who have been born again. Christ loved those who hated him. He was willing even to die for his enemies. V. Lend, Hoping for Nothing Again (v. 35). This is what the Heavenly Father Is constantly doing, ne is kind and gra cious unto the unthankful and the wicked, ne sends his rain and sun shine upon the unjust and sinners. He makes fruitful the' toil of those who blaspheme his name, ne thus does be cause it is his nature to so do. VI. Be Merciful (v. 36). The example for the imitation of the ; disciple is the Heavenly Father. VII. Judge Not (v. 37). To judge does not mean the placing of just estimates upon men's actions and lives, for, "By their fruits ye shall know them." The tree is judged by the fruit it bears. The thorn tree does j not bear figs, nor the apple tree bear grapes. Our only way of discerning the character of men and women Is their actions. That which is con demned is censorious judgment the Impugning of motives. VIM. Condemn Not (v. 37). This means that we should not pass : sentence upon men for their acts, for to their own master they stand or fall (Rom. 14:4). The real reason why such action is not warranted is that the bias of our hearts and the limita tion of our judgments render it im possible to righteously and intelli gently pass judgment. IX. Forgive (v. 37.) Those who forgive shall be forgiven. The one who has realized the forgiv ing mercy of God will be gracious and forgiving toward others. XI. Liberality Determined by What Is Left (Luke 21:1-4). The rich cast into the treasury much, but it was from their abundance. The poor widow cast In all that she had; there was nothing left. God estimates a gift by what one has left, not by the size of the gift. To give the wid ow's mite is to give all. For the mil lionaire to give the widow's mite would mean for him to give his millions. Genius and Taste. To say nothing of its holiness or authority the Bible contains more specimens of genius and taste than any other volume in existence. Lan-dor. A CHILD DOESN'T LAUGH AND PLAY IF CONSTIPATED LOOK, MOTHER! IS TONGUE COATED, BREATH FEVERISH AND STOMACH SOUR? CALIFORNIA SYRUP OF FIGS" CAN'T HARM TENDER STOM ACH, LIVER, BOWELS. A laxative today saves a sick child tomorrow. Children simply will not take the time from play to empty their bowels, which become clogged up with waste, liver gets sluggish, stomach sour. Look at the tongue, mother I If coated, or your child is listless, cross, feverish, breath bad, restless, doesn't eat heartily, full of cold or has sore throat or any other children's ail ment, give a teaspoonful of "Cali fornia Syrup of Figs," then don't worry, because it is perfectly harm less, and in a few hours all this con stipation poison, sour bile and fer menting waste will gently move out of the bowels, and you have a well, play ful child again.

At camp "Dutch," as he was called, was reputably the biggest sleepyhead and most absent-minded individual ex isting. One night "Dutch" was, as usual, in blissful repose, when some of the buildings In the barracks caught fire and the alarm was spread rapidly to all parts of the camp, and the fire finally came alarmingly near the bunk where "Dutch" was dreaming of shoot ing the Huns into Hades. In his sleep "Dutch" finally got up and wandered to another part of the barracks, where he crawled into some one's bunk and peacefully slept on amid the roar and clatter, flames and smoke. Not until long after the building had burned to the ground and only cinders and ashes were left did any one think of "Dutch." After a prolonged search they finally found him, sweetly and blissfully sleeping with the cover pulled up around his chin like an In nocent babe, and closely clasping in either hand his girl's picture and a safety razor. Grow Rubber In California. The American rubber trade has been more or less seriously threatened ever since the beginning of the great war In 1914. It is, therefore, Interesting to know that there are shrubs, now grow ing wild in California, that contain workable quantities of it, and that by the cultivation of these it Is possible that we may be able to grow our own rubber In the United Stated No Older Than Your Face.
