CLUB NOTES A number of the clubs which usually meet. on Monday afternoon have Bad Breath and Sour Stomach Stopped At Once With Pure Willow Charcoal, the Greatest Gas - Absorber Known. There is no necessity to suffer the humiliation, chagrin and discomfort of bad breath, biliousness, sour stomach, gastritis, sluggish liver, etc., when a little, lozenge of charcoal will cleanse the stomach and make it pure and sweet. Do .not drug yourself when a simple little-natural charcoal made from fra grant iwillow branches, sweetened with, .honey, will add tone, to your stomach, liver,' and Intestines, rapidly absorb gases and t stop foul odors of all kinds ; Charcoal ; will absorb one hundred times its own volume in gas. A box full of charcoal placed In a bed room will keep the air of such a room pure and- sweet. A little charcoal lozenge dissolved on the tongue after meals will also keep the stomach fresh and clean. Charcoal is justly called the scrubbing brush for the stomach. The old monks of medieval times cured bad cases ot stomach trouble, cast oat devils from the system of man by feeding such man charcoal. Scientific men of today believe in the great strength of charcoal for the cure of human Ills. Too much of it cannot, harm one. The system craves It Just Mke an animal needs and craves salt every so often. Charcoal goes Into the stomach gently and is wel come, it settles down through the ac tion of the stomach, and filters through all . the food, absorbing gas, aiding . digestion and giving tone to the Juices, so that when the food goes-j into the intestines, and there meets other digestive fluids, the charcoal holds the impurities and thus keeps theni from the blood. Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are made from pure willow. They are prepared fragrant by the use of honey and sweetened , so they please the taste and are easily dissolved. They have an enormous sale, thus stamping them with the approval of the public. Every druggist sells them. 25 cents per box. Go to your druggist today and buy a box; then after your next meal take two or three of them and Judge for yourself of their merit. Several taken at bed time will prove to you In the morning that they have been at work all night, for your bad breath will not be so bad after all. Send ns your name and address and we will send yon a trial package by mall free. Address F. A. Stuart Co., 00 Stuart Bldg Marshall, Mich.

The Sunday School Commentary

SERMON, DEC. 20, BY lOopyrif ht. 1908, b American Pms Association. From the time when Adam and Eve listened to the devil rather than to God and by one man sin entered Into the world and death by sin (Rom. v, 12) the god of this world, the devil, has been blinding people's eyes to the truth and to the love of God, always setting before them some way which he insists Is better than God's way; hence all the sin of which we read In all the Bible story and In the whole history of the race. The alternate lesson for today tells how even Solomon, so beloved and blessed of God, was turned away from Him by the women of Other nations, and by them and their idols his heart was turned away from the Lord God of Israel (I Kings xi, 4-13; Neh. xiii, 26). In all the history of the world there has never been but one who always resisted the devil and listened only to God, and of Him we lean as to the beginning of His humanity In our lesson today. He was with the Father before the world was. By Him and for Him were all things croated. He appeared in human form to Abraham, to Joshua, to Gideon, to Manoah and his wife and to others. He was typified ia every sacrifice appointed by God from the shedding of blood in Eden by His own hand to provide redemption clothing for Adam and Eve all the way down to Golgotha. He was set apart before the foundation of the world, but was manifested in the fullness of time, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law (I Pet. I, 20; Gal. Iv, 4, 5). Moses and all the prophets wrote of Him as the only Redeemer, the Messiah of Israel, the one to rule the world in peace and righteousness (Luke xxlv, 27, 44). From the days of Malachi, who said. "The Lord whom ye seek shall suddenly come to His temple" and "Behold I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord' (III, 1; Iv, 5). there had been no further message from heaven for over 300 years. But one day while a certain priest was officiating before God in the temple an angel appeared to him and said that through him and his wife the herald of the Messiah should come, who would go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah. Six months later the same angel, GabrieL was sent from heaven to a bumble home in Nazareth to a virgin called Mary with the most wonderful message ever given to a woman In the whole history of this world (Luke L 3033). In simple, childlike faith Mary listened to the wonderful message and said. "Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it onto me according to thy

STEARNS. wjra. rc mm teen toretota that the Messiah should be born of a virgin and thus the word of God be literally ful filled that He should be the "Beed of woman;" also that He should be born In Bethlehem of Judea (Isa. vlL 14); Gen. Hi, 15; Mlc. v, 2). In our lesson we see God, who watches over His word to perform it (Jer. 1. 12, R. V.), bringing all things to pass Just as He had said. A decree from the world ruler, who knew not God. caused Marv to be in 'Bethlehem at this particular time, and while there she brought forth her firstborn son in a lowly place among cattle and used a manger as His cradle (verses 7, 12. 1G), for there wai no room for them la the inn. He came from the glory of heaven. His Father's home, the holy angels and the great company of the redeemed, and there was no welcome for Him on earth except from His mother and Joseph, and those few shepherds, and Simeon and Anna, and those wise men from the east, and a few other. But all heaven was Interested. An angel came with his glory of heavenry light and told these shepherds of the great event; then a multitude of angels praised God in these words: "Glory to God in th highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men" (Terse M. Then the angels returned to heaven, and the shepherds went and found it just as the angels had said. To this day how little interest is taken on the earth in heavenly things, the god of this world leading his followers to cry. "Let us alone," but God has always held a few like the shepherds and the others, whose hearts are with Him by His grace. Notwithstanding all hindrances, the child who was born of Mary shall yet reign over the house of Jacob and over all the earth in righteousness, and His church shall reign with Him. Note the angel's "feat nots" (I. 13, 30; il. 10) to the Lord' people and study the words from Gen. xv, 1, to Rev. L 17. and if a child of God appropriate them, for God does not give a spirit of fear (II Tim. 1, 7). The good tidings of great Joy are for all people, but what a large proportion of the human race have passed away and are passjng away without hearing the good news. Is It nothing to you?" In all His life He glorified God. and by His finished work He gives peace to all who receive Kim. The shepherds did not question the ansel's message, but said, "Let us go and see this thine which Is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known to us." Having heard and believed and seen, they madi It known abroad. Mary kept and pondered In her heart all these things. "T Relieves seur stomach, ?alpuatioo of the heart. Digests what you tst

Christian Endeavor-Home Missions

BY REV. S. Topic Why was tb King born? John xvlii. S3-37. 1 A Chrtstmaa meeting. The Christmas season has returned, and naturally devout minds turn to Bethlehem, and In oar churches and other places of religious worship and study the subjects selected have to do with some phase of Christ's birth. The subject suggested for our study Is an Interesting and important one. Why was the King born? When we turn onr thoughts to the birth of Christ we usually think of Its humbleness, and yet, while He was born amid lowly surroundings. He was nevertheless a King. He was King of heaven and . King of the earth and came into the i world as the King of the Jews. The' wise men of the east when they arrived at Jerusalem asked, "Where Is He that was born Klug of the Jews?" When Pilate pressed the question upon Him He did not deny Ills kingship, but acknowledged It w ben lie declared, "My kingdom is not of this world." Having a kingdom. He must have been a King. He further proceeds to answer the question before us: "To thin end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world that I should bear witness of the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth My voice," Christ, the King, was born to bear witness of the truth. The transition of Christ from kingship to witness bearing ia a striking one. It seems to indicate that His kingship lay in His witness bearing. His kingdom was not temporal, but spiritual. The purpose of His coming was not to teach men the true way of conducting governments, but the eternal truths of God concerning spiritual things yea, to reveal truth In Himself for He said on another occasion, "I am the way, the truth and the life." Being at the head of those who were to receive the truth taught by Ilim, He was a King In this spiritual realm, and the very purpose of His kingship was to make known by precept 'and example the great truths of God to man. For this purpose He left His throne in heaven and came to earth, being born as a man that He raljht the better perform His great mission. Well may the world therefore rejoice upon the anniversary of His birth. But merely to witness to the truth was not the cause of the King's coming. Through witnessing to the truth He was to call to Him all who were of the truth, all who desired spiritual truth, that He might set them free from error and from bondage to sin. "The truth shall make them free." Have we accepted the kingship of Christ? Is He to us the truth, and have we found spiritual liberty and freedom in Him and His teachings? If not.

My Dear Elsa Never in my life have I been more in need of Aunt Elinor's advice about self control than during the past week. You remember, dear, don't you. the "little talks" we used to loathe that she gave us on social amenities? I can bear her this minute saying: "Do try to exercise self control, girls. It Is a finer social asset than pink cheeks, French frocks and a motor car of your own." Well, the other day I was obliged to draw on this "social asset" to keep from shrieking aloud In church. No, there wasn't a service going on. I had merely gone down to old St. Paul's, the church Washington attended when be was CAPTJCHIH HOOD. first president of the United States, with a friend of mine who revels m tombstone lore. While sbe was gathering data I stepped Into the sacred edifice to rest. Sitting in one of the comfortable old pews, inviting my soul really taking forty winks I was aroused by a masculine voice saying In a businesslike tone. "Step a little more briskly, please." Having thoroughly convinced myself that I was not in an elevated train or a trolley car. I looked about and In the dim, religions light saw four stunning girls walking slowly down the aisle, with a man la front directing their steps.

UVXSMT. An Endeavor Musical Director. The musical features of the recent New York state Christian Endeavor convention were directed by the Rev. F. II. Jacobs, the noted gospel song leader. Mr. Jacobs' baton has waved over more BXV. F. B. JACOBS. state conventions than that of any other musical director, and Mr. Jacobs' leading is always Inspiring and enthusing. His acceptance of the invitation of the New York programme committee came over 3,000 miles of sea from the British isles, where he was laboring in a special campaign. Mr. Jacobs has bad long, active experience in various lines of Christian Endeavor work. Endeavor Gems. The pledge gives edge to Endeavoring. A president who seldom goes to the meetings should try to be a resident Promptness in taking part is worth more than precision, fluency and ornateness. Remember that there is one Endeavors r present at every meeting who is never discouraged or apatheticJesus Christ.

"Great fathers!" I gasped. "What next?" 80 you see I am in a position to tell yon that the devotional gait of the smart New York girl Is subdued and dignified.

West Side Improvement Association Drops Sewer Controversy. INSIST ON HOSE HOUSE. IT IS PROBABLE THAT IF THE CITY CANNOT BUILD IT THE ASSOCIATION WILL RAISE NECESSARY FUNDS. It was decided at the regular meeting of the West Side Improvement association last evening at the Baxter school that all remonstrances in regard to the heavy assessment placed on the shoulders of West Richmond property owners for the Southwest sewer system, should be dropped, although the effected property owners are far from satisfied. This sewer question was fourht very bitterly between the board of works and the Improvement association. The knife was agaiu drawn by the association last evening when the hose house question was reopened. The committee headed by Charles Bell and assisted by Prof. E. P. Trusblood. W. N. Johnson. Charles II. Moore, and Clarence H. Kramer, reported that tbey had met and organised and were now ready to go Into the thickest of the fray. This com mittee stated that it expected to pull some live wires and In the near future It expected to attack council and the board of works. It Is known by the committee that bot'a the city bodies believe that a hose house should be -established on the west side and the committee also realizes the city is financially embarrassed; so the committee recommended that If necessary the club sall rafse the funds for the Improvement. The question of the Riverside park also came up for discussion and It seemed the general concensus of opinion that the park should be located In Southwest Richmond near where the proposed new south H street bridge is to be built. It was stated by several that this was an excellent location, but the association made no definate -settlement of the question. The enlargement of the Baxter school play grounds was discussed by the members and the special committee recently appointed, consisting of E. G. McMahan, George Cotton and Thomas Hayward. The committee re ported that everything mas very favorable and that it may be possible to have the grounds enlarged. The members of the association are very much pleased with the progress that has been mado by the various committees. It is stated by several that they expect to keep up the fight for anything that will benefit the West Side. What He Writes First. About the first thing the average) man will do in testing a new pen Is to write his name. That Is ss common as the habit of writing "Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party" on the typewriter. The man who sells fountain pens knows the custom well.
