Blereafter It Is Aore restricted to His Idisclples. Two reasons why this should K„. sufficient are (vv. 1-12): (1) The Ij'bnrisees and Sadducees show their attitude toward Him In their demand for In sign. His answer is that none shall |he given save that of His dentil and (resurrection, as symbolized in the exIperienees of the prophet Jonah. (2) (The dlsdples show their inability to (understand the spiritual nature of His leaching. When He warned them of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees they understood Him to refer to bread, when He meant (heir doctrine. It was at this crisis when Christ , turned from the nation which had rejected Him that Peter made this great confession. It wns made In the borders of Caesarea-Philippi, practically Gentile territory, I, Occasion Os (vv. 13-16). Two questions of Christ provoked this confession: 1. The question as to the opinion of people concerning Him. They recognized Him as a teacher or a prophat of more than human authority and power. Today, as then, there Is a diversity of opinion among [the people as to Jesus Christ. Some think He is only a man; others that He Is a great teacher, but notldng more. Had He been content with (ids He would not have been molested In Jerusalem, for the Jews willingly acknowledged Him as more than a human teacher. It was His persistent ; claim to be the God-man, the Son of God, that sent Him to the cross. 2. The second question Involved the personal opinion of the disciples concerning Him. To be aide to tell what others think of Jesus is not enough; there must be definite, correct and personal belief on Him. 11. The New Body, the Church, Announced (vv. 17-20). Peter had made a noble confession of Christ, so now Christ confesses him. If v.e confess Christ He will confess ns (Matt. 10:32, 33). Christ declared His intention of bringing into existence a new body to the members of which He will give eternal life, and to whose hands He will entrust the keys of the Kingdom. I'cter was to have a dlstlnin this body. The keys entrusted to Him were used on the day of Pentecost, and again in the case of Cornelius. Association in this new body cannot be broken by dedth, for ti e gates of hades shall not prevail .:gainst it. This body, the church, Is of a heavenly origin, a heavenly calling and a heavenly inheritance. 111. The Cross the Way to the Throne (vv. 21-33). This ftas, no doubt, startling to the disciples. They did not realize that redemption was to be accomplished through the passion of the cross. So unwelcome was this announcement that Peter cried, "This shall not he unto thee.” Peter later saw through this darkness to the glory on the hilltop beyond. A new hope then tilled his breast (I pet. 1 :3, 4). Victory through death is yet the stumbling block of many. Many are stumbling over the doctrine of salvation and redemption through the suffering of the cross. IV. The Cost of Discipleship (vv. 24-27). To follow Christ means suffering. To ' follow Him is to turn one's back upon the world. Life can only be saved by losing it. If we are going to be Christians we must share Christ's suffering. • "e cannot go to heaven on flowery [ beds of ease. 1. There must be denial of self (v. , 24). There is a wide difference be- [ tween self-denial and denial of self. . Self-denial is practiced everywhere by [ nil people, but only the disciples of ■ • Hrist or Christian people deny self. [ Christ takes the place of self. 2. “Take up his cross.” This cross is [ the suffering and shame which lie in ' the path of loyalty to God. To do our , duty will mean suffering (II Tim. 1 3:12). 3. Follow Christ. This means to [ have the mind of Christ, to do like ■ Christ. All such shall be rewarded [ when Christ comes in glory. What to Hate • I will tell you what to hate.

Nov. 13. — Wall street entered another hectic day today witli I brokerage houses still swamped with i an avalanche of orders on the eighth day of the great post election business boom. Traders were astounded at the strength of the market which showed | a net gain of approximately 4 1-4 points on the average since the conservative electoral victory, despite heavy profit taking ill along the line. | There were some breaks in prices i yesterday but the market on the whole showed a gain with some spe-. cial issues searing to great heights. [ From a speculative standpoint the [ street was baffled as to what the market will lie next and today’s developments were awaited witli some anxiety, although many conservative traders believed the rush of buying from all over the nation would be more than enough to absorb the widespread profit-taking. o England Fears U. S. Supremacy In Air Traffic By Clarence Du Bose London.—The United States is destined to lead the world in international aerial transportation, some experts here predict. Tlie flight of the ZR3, from Germany to New Jersey, the acquisition of tbit airship by the United Stites, and the plan for German Zeppljn experts to join Americans in building dirigibles at Akron, Ohio, mark the beginning, many here believe, of a new aerial era—in which Anieric i will take first place. Transportation men here say that the Uniled States will accomplish in the air all that she failed to do on the sea. By that they mean that the U. S. Shipping Board boats failed in the North Atlantic to take away the business of the other companies, innstly British, flying between New York and English and Channel ports. They mean that in the opinion of British seamen, shippers and transportation* experts, the United States post-war

.merchant murine has been pretty much of a flop. They mean that American outfits huve failed to grab the North Atlantic carrying trade on the surface of the sea—and they mean, look out if the Yanks ever start to running airships Instead of steamboats across the Atlantic. Ami the ZR3 paves the way for America to do just that thing, uutli- 1 orities on this side declare. Between 1914 and 1918 the Germans made amazing developments in ' t|te Zeppliu. Now. with German experts who know all the secrets, work- 1 Ing at Akron with Americans, who 1 are certainly not shy in either skill, Inventiveness or money, the ultimate product is expected to surpass the 1 present creations—and when that is done a regular trans-Atlantic aerial passenger and goods carrying service will be simple enough. In four years, from 1914 to 1918, the Germans increased the volumne' of lifting gas in Zeppelins from I 794,250 to 3,812.400 cubic feet; in- 1 creased the "useful load” from 8 tons to 82 tons; increased the speed from 47 to S 3 miles per hour. Most important of all. the' “aerostatic coefficient of utilization" was increas-| ed from 29 per cent in 1914 to 59 per cent in 1918. This “co-efficient” expresses tile relation between the useful load which an airship can cany ami the total weight of that airship. It means that in 1912 twothirds of the load was wasted. Most of the load the Zeppelin carried then I [was itself. Nounnore than half its load is "useful" —that is, passengers, freight, mail, baggage. | Experts point to this progress and say: "Great guns! if the Germans end the Americans get together in building Zepplina and continue the improvement—as no doubt they will —there's no other European country can even touch them. No other country even has a start. They’ll [ have the Atlantic air trade grabbed!” i Steamshins cannot materially increase their present Atlantic schedules. Even to speed up a few knots ian hour runs up a huge, and disl proportionate coal or oil bill, and the few hours gained in the crossing is not worth while from a business standpoint. It is utterly impossible for steamships to compete in speed with airships. Heavy shipments ami slow traffic, freight and passenger, will no doubt continue always to go by ship — but the fast

Bad Coughs Ended • Quickly by DoubleAction Remedy Remarkable results in quickly clearing up the severest coughs have been obtained with ; prescription by a well-known specialist that does two things at once. It not only soothes and heals the soreness and irritation, but it very quickly loosens and removes the phlegm and congestion which are the real cause of the coughing. It is often astonishing how speedily the cough stops, The prescription is known as Dr. King's New Discovery for Coughs. It in particularly valuable for night coughing. To promptly end this annoying and weakening scourge, simply before retiring take one teaspoonful of Dr. King’s New Discovery and hold it 'in your throat 15 or 20 seconds before swallowing, people who have been unable to rest on account of continual coughing have often gotten their full 8 or 3 hours’ sleep by this simple method. Dr. King's is excellent, too, for children's spasmodic croup, bronchitis, laryngitis, bronchial asthma and hoarseness. On sale at all good druggists. Ask for 1 1 •C®TTir<T«
