PAGE TWO. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL I Lesson XII. Fourth Quarter, For Dec. 19,1909. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson.' a Comprehensive Quarterly Review Golden Text, II I Tim. iv, 7 Commentary Prepared by I Rev. D. M. Stearns. i Lessor I. Paul a prisoner t be ar rest, Acts xxL 27-39. Golden Text. II Tim. ii, 3. "Thou therefore endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ" Paul knew that bonds arid af flictions waited for him everywhere (20-23 margin), but whether he unnec essarily ran into some of them or not we cannot say. This was probably one of the three times that be was beaten with rods (II Cor. xi. 25). He accepted all as being In the will of that Just One for him and coveted only to be Ells faithful witness. Lesson II. Paul a prisoner the plot, Acts xxiii, 11-24. Golden Text, Ps. xci, 2. "I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God; in Him will I trust." Beaten and his life sought, by the mob. liable to be pulled in pieces by the frenzied Jewish council, bow comforting must have been the visit of the Lord to him that nfght with those words: "lie of good cheer. Paul: thou hast testified of Me." Lesson III. Paul a prisoner before Felix. Acts xxiv. 10-27. Golden Text, Acts xxiv, 1. "Herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offense toward God and toward men." The topics of this chapter are the faith in Christ, righteousness, tem perance and judgment to come, the hope of Israel, the resurrection of just and unjust and believing all things written in the law and in the prophets. Lesson IV. Paul a prisoner before Festus and Agrippa, Acts xxvi. 19-32. Golden Text, II Tim. i. 12. "I know 'whom 1 have believed and am persuad ed that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day." For the third time the story of Paul's conversion, the resur rection of the dead and the future glory of Israel, the present forgiveness of sins through Jesus Christ for all who will turn from the power of Satan unto God and the eternal inheritance. Lesson V. Paul a prisoner the voy age. Acts xxvii, 13-20. Golden Text, Ts. xxxvii, 5,. "Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in nira, and He 'shall bring it to pass." Paul's advice to tarry at Crete is unheeded. A two weeks' storm follows in which all ex pect to bo Inst probably all except Taul and his party but again the Lord comos to Paul either personally or by an angel and assures him that no life shall be Jost ' and that he must be brought before Caesar. Lesson VI. Paul a prisoner the thipw reck. Acts xxvii, ,,9; to xxviii, 10. Golden Text, Ps. xxxiv. 22. "The Lord redeemetli the scul of His servants, and none of them that trust in Ilim shall be desolate." -Death and Us master pursue Paul most relentlessly. The soldiers advise killing all the prison ers, and, that being avoided and all having escaped drowning, a deadly viper threatens his life, but the Lnrd delivered ar.d used him to bless many, during the three-months' stay in Malta. Lesson Vll. Paul a prisoner in Rome, Acts xxviii, 11-31. Golden Text. Rom. i, 1G, "J am not -ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto -salvation to every one that believeth." We now see Paul dwelling two whole years in his own hired house as a prisoner and contin ually preaching" the kingdom of God and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ out of the law and the prophets and from morning till evening. Lesson VI II.-Paul's story of his life. II Cor. xi, 21. to xii. 10. Golden Text. II Cor. xii. 9.. "lie said unto me. My race is sutlicient for thee, for ray Strenirlh is in;id: mrffrt f It seems a strange portion to be en titled "Paul's life story." but. it does tell a marvelous experience of "a man In Christ," who suffered al! but death, or, as he says, ."deaths oft" and finally a martyr's death, for Christ's sake. The appearances of Christ to him on the way to Damascus and afterward were most exalting, amTthls one above the rest. Lesson IX. Paul on self denial. Rom. xiv, 10-21. Golden Text. Rom. xiv. 21. "It is good neither to eat flesh nor to j drink wine nor anything whereby they brother stumbleth." The believer, be ing a citizen of a kingdom of righteous ness and peace and joy in the Holy Ghost and being filled with all joy and peace in believing, is supposed to live far. above the mere eating and drink ing for which so many live and be ready to deny himself any selfish grat ification which might offend another. Lesson X. Paul on the grace of giv ing, II Cor. vili, 1-15. Golden Text. Acts xx, 35, "Remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how He said. It Is more blessed to give than to receive." Again the lesson isone of being so conquered by Him who gave Himself for us that we cannot help giving our Belves wholly to Him for the benefit of others, even at the cost of becoming poorer by doing- so, if only we can commend Him to others. Lesson XL Paul's last words, II Tim. iv, 1-18. Golden Text. Phil. 1, 21. 'For mo to live is Christ, and to die Is gain." What shall we say of giving when we see Paul at the close of a life of untold suffering saying, Now I am ready to give myself a sacrifice, a mar tyr, for Him whose I am and "whom m r tt i i i a j. server ne couiu. iook uacic over a life ofLself denying service since that great Damascus day, and he could iook forward to a kingdom of eternal glory 1 the ages to come. . , . GENERAL NEWS. In Neve York City the Ice Trust "froze out" all competition. The talk in New York just now is of Alton B. Parker a3 the next Dem ocratic candidate for Governor. A seat on the New York stock ex change has recently been sold for $96,000, the highest figure ever reached. Thirty young men are in their graves and two hundred and sixteen aremaimad for life as a result of the football season of 1909. The announcement that a Yale alumnus, whose name is withheld, has offered a prize of $100,000 for an adequate remedy for tuberculosis will undoubtedly arouse increased interest in the quest for a cure for the greatest scourge of the age. Every person in the United States should have a stake of $34.98 if the money in circulation on December 1 were evenly divided. This is based on the treasury's estimate that the population of the United States is 89,524,000 at this time. Shoes jobbers of New York and other centres have already commen ced to make arrangements for 1910 fall samples, and it is evident from announcements made yesterday, that next year's footwear will be lacking in many of the frills and furbelows that mark this year's product. Job bers declare that owing to the in creased cost of production, present prices can be maintained only by re ducting the ornament on staple lines and putting the time and material into a neat but plain article. Words of Truth and Soberness. Theodore Roosevelt. I warn my countrymen that the great recent progress made in city life is not a full measure of our civi lization ; for our civilization rests at bottom on the wholesomeness, the attractiveness and the completeness, as well as prosperity, of life in the country. The men and women on the farms stand for what is funda mentally best and most needed in our American life. Upon the de velopment of country life rests ulti mately our ability, by methods of farming requiring the highest intel ligence, to continue to feed and clothe the hungry nations ; to supply the city with fresh blood, clean bodies, and clear brains that can en dure the terrific strain of modern life, we need the development of men in the open country, who will be in the future, as in the past, the stay and strength of the nation in time of war, and its guiding, con trolling spirit in time of peace. The Stomach Cannot Rest. It is a mistake to' suppose the stomach can rest and thus recuperate and by this means dy-repsui is cured. The digestive process begins in the mouth and does not end uatil the food has reached the inte tines. The salivary glands in the mo ith, the stomach, lower stomach, liver, spleen, etc. take part ia the digestive process. This process is going on continusuoly. Think of resting the heart or the lung era few min utes, or any other organ. Pepsin' pan creatin, etc. do not. iest tr.e stomach, they digest the residue of food a weak digestive system cannot digesc and thus relieve the body of irritating acids or gas. Ry dale's Stomach Tablets contain just enough Pepsin, and Pancreatin to do this. They also contain many ege table tonics and stimulants for the di gestive tract. Rydale's Stomach Ta -lets cure dyspepsia the only way it can be cured. Ask us about them. People's Drugstore.

The above is the name of a German chemical, which is one of the many valuable ingredients of Foley's Kidney Kemeay.

Kansas, the Alfalfa State. Kansas City btar. The most profitable crop produced in the West is alfalfa. Kansas has almost a million acres of this valua ble feeding crop, a greater area of it than all the other states together. There war an increase this year of 13 Der cent, and an increase in two years of 33 per cent, in the Kansas alfalfa area. These ngures denote progress of a substantial sort in the . 1 1 i i - s jr intelligent selection oi crops ia juu sas. Alfalfa is recognized as indispens able for the most profitable pro duction of cattle and swine. Those live stock producers who own alfalfa fields get larger net returns from the sale of cattle and hogs than far mers who depend entirely on other feeding crops. The average product of Kansas al falfa fields was worth $14 44 an acre this year, compared with $11.80 for wheat and $10.77 for corn. The best alfalfa fields in Kansas often yield more in a single year than the value of the land. Kansas should have as much land n alfalfa as in wheat or corn, and probably will be before many years. Continuing growth of wealth is as sured for every farmer who pro duces it. A Prescription For Lung Trouble. One of Asheville, N.

John Barker, the town marshal of Harrisonville, Kans., avers that he heard the following conversation be tween two little girls who are not yet old enough to go to school: What makes a horse act naughty when he sees an auto ?" one asked. It's this way," replied the other. 'Horses is used to seem other horses pullin' rigs, and they don't know what to think of 'em going along without a horse. I guess if you was to see a pair of pants walk ing down the street without a man in 'em you'd be scared, too." Looking One's Best.

No Religion, No Home Modern religion is decaying in the United States and if some substitute to replace it is not found, our institu tions will crumble, says Dr. U A. tAl wood professor of sociology at the University of Missouri in a speech to the ischool teachers of Missouri, who were attending the summer session at the university. His subject was 'The Relation of Religion to the Family and Social Life of To-day, and he attempted , to show that a strong religious feeling is absolutely necessary to the permanent family. The idea that social life can - get along without religion is fallacious. t Minilpncrp nnvone to show me a sin gle instance where a civilization of the past has survived witnout relig ion All nonnles of the Dast who developed a stable civilization had a strong religion.

Kidney disease is dangerous because it comes on unawares and progresses to a fatal stage before the sufferer realizes what the trouble is. If you begin to run down, feel badly, have indigestion, inactive Liver, etc., you have reason to suspect that your Kidneys are affected and a special Kid ney treatment should be taken at once, Delays are dangerous. Rydale's Kidney Remedy will cure Br?ght's Disease if taken before too much of the Kidneys are destroyed. The Remedy can do no harm if your kidneys are cot the cause of your ill-health. It is the safest remedy if they are the cause. Put up in pill form in 25c. and 50o sizes. Peo ple's Drug Store. Voice of Experience. A young girl recently went to her aunt on a momentous occasion.

Good anecdotes of Saphlr. the great German humorist and editor, are told In Derlin. A young couple, newly en gaged, were favored with a letter of Introduction to Saphlr. which they duly presented. Now, the gentleman was notorious for his effeminate habits and ways, and his appearance at once struck the eye of the observant jour nalist, who had heard about him. He received the pair with empressement, insisted upon their being seated in his most comfortable easy chairs', assured them how pleased he was to hear of their engagement and wound up with. "Now, pray, you must, you really must, tell me which of you is to be the bride." Every old sore is an infected spot on the flesh, kept open by constant drainage of impure blood into the place. One of the principal constituents of blood is plasma, a healing property. Where the circulation is pure this element of the blood, which is of a glutinous or sticky nature, performs the necessary work in healing all sores, wounds and lacerations. It does this by sticking or joining the parls together, while nature causes a knitting of the tissues and solidifies the place. This healing property is frequently destroyed by impure accumulations in the blood, and this vital fluid not only loses its power to heal, but becomes a source of irritation and disease to any open sore or ulcer on the body. Constantly it discharges its morbid matters into the dace, and gradually it causes the infection to spread, and the sore enlarges. The morbid matter in the blood cocw from different causes. A long spell of debilitating sickness, which bro disease germs in the system, the retention of the refuse matters of ti e Wiy CURED Or EATING SORE. Daar Sirs: I was suffarina; grrsatly from a sore on my left breast, which, had betrwn to eat, and at times deep, shooting' pains -would pass through it, and the ulcer was discharging-yellow and rather offensive matter. I con sulted physicians, but their treat ment did not benefit me very much. My condition seemed hopeless, and I had almost des paired of getting- well. I knew that the disease was hereditary in my case, as an only sister, my mother and two of her sisters had died ot Canoer of the breast. After I had finished the first bottle of S.S.S. I felt some better, so con tinued it until I was cured. MBS. JAMES CASSEIil., Helton, Mo.
