Painful, Creaky Joints Only. It took a good many years to get together a combination of pain subduing and swelling reducing agents <’ 'ciared to be the one remedy that to tost instantly penetrates through skin and flesh and starts right in to make swollen, inflamed, creaky, pain racked joints as good as new. They call this new and wonderful preparation "Joint Ease" because! the medical man who turned the trick, worked for years to perfect some, lowpriced remedy that would really benefit tho millions of people who have ore- or more jcynts that need helpful attention. So "joint East ’’ is prepared only for people who have? a swollen, painful. creaky, distorted or slid' joint,, whether it lie in ktv'e, elbow, shoulder, ankle, neck or fingc” and whether It is caused by rheumatism or something else. Os course, t can't help but. quickly put an end to m h superficial ailments as lumbago. n';'it algia. neuritis, aching muscles, stitch in the side, chick in the neck or sure feet, because of Ms penetrating action, but wbut it is really recommended for is joint ailments of any nature whatever. Ask for a tube of "Joint Ease." You can use it several times in one evening for quick results, because it goes r'ght through the skin with otify a few- seconds rubbing. It surely is a swift penetrator and when it gets under the skin, it starts right in to clean up all joint trouble. All druggists dispense it daily for about 60c a tube. at. do tirst cla.eS druggists everywhere. i

— ■ -1 I The People’s Voice — WITH THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. Editor Democrat: Liston to what Isaiah said several thousand years ago: “Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations; they have no knowledge that carry the wood of their graven image and pray unto a God that can not save.” It would jar your pride, Mr. Editor, if class 34 would tell you that many people among Christian nations are Idol worshippers, and aro placing their faith in forces that do not save. Out of one hundred million people or more in the United States, only fortyseven million are making any effort to learn of the covenant of Sinai. Within this minor number are included all those people who think that religion is only a good robe with which to cover their personal identity and it also includes all those politicians who "jined meetin’ ” just before some election and arcs still in the church because there is no way to get out but to back out and they hate to do that as they are not sure the robe completely covers their anatomy. At tirst the missionary call went out to Israel, but was extended to the Gentile nations later. All nations now are included as heirs to Abraham either by the covenant or by the promise. There is no escape from responsibility. Every individual is a free moral agent and can accept or reject his birthright. His responsibility remains regardless of his decision. Instead of carrying the wood of idols, th« y are now bowing before the God of War, the God of Finance, the God at Commercialism, the God of Science the God of Social Evils, and so on until the list of the gods become fatiguing. Each idol worshipper builds his own god according to his capacity. It is the duty of every minister, Sunday school teacher, or any one who Jjas the privilege to teach or preach, to itudy this covenant as interpreted by Christ. The rise and fall of nations prove the existance and force of this divine law. It is now time to quit admiring our brute generals, and it is time to quit'holding bloody wars before the minds of rising generations, and teaching the glories of war. The pomp of war deceive the young. We have taught falsely until our daily papers begin to read like Nick Carter, or Diamond Dick. It is bank robbery, train hJldup, mob violence, lynching bees, high finance, get rich quick schemes, the high jacks of our large cities enforcing their will and systematizing robbery in broad daylight by the force of the sawed-off shot gun. The system of our education must be changed. The picture thrown on the world screen is worse than this . The skeletons hern of famine caused by war are stalking across many nations of Europe. Lloyd George, ex-prime minister of England, is telling us that Europe is ■inking into materialism and we are trying to wash our hands of the whole affair and escape the penalty of the covenant. Heathenism like the Hit is contangious. We are afraid to teach the truth to our children or even advocate the truth for fear our neighbor will take revenge on us the very first time we ar a candidate for constable. We are still tramping tin treadmill .".nd thinking wo are going somwhere. Let us get off.
