Phillips Toomsboro, Ga. Weak, nervous women make unhappy homes, their condition irritates both husband and children. It has been said that nine-tenths of the nervous prostration, nervous despondency, “the blues, irritability and backache arise from some displacement or derangement of a woman’s system. Mrs. Phillips letter clearly shows that no other remedy is so successful in overcoming this condition as Lydia E. Pinkham’s V egetable Compound. Women Proving Mere Polite. It is not an uncommon sight now to see a young girl get up and offer her seat in the subway to an elderly woman, whose entrance has been ignored by the male passengers. Such usually brings some blushing humble man to his feet with a stammering offer of “have my seat,” but the climax was reached the other evening in an uptown restaurant when a middle-aged woman took a seat at the same table with one of her own sex, a stranger to her, and on finishing dinner politely inquired: “Do you mind if I smoke?”—New York Sun.

LESSON TEXT—Psalm 33:12; Prov. 14: 34, Rom. 13:1-10. GOLDEN TEXT—Righteousness exalteth a nation; but sin is a reproach to ■ any people.-Prov. 14: 4. REFERENCE MATERIAL -Deut 5T- 1 21. Psalm 75:5-7. PRIMARY TOPlC—Jesus' Love for His ! Country. JUNIOR TOPlC—Loving anil Helping Our Country. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC

—Loyalty to Our Country. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —C hristian Principles in Law and Goveminent. Not "Making the Nation Christian,” if the lesson committee please. Neither of the passages chosen for today's lesson has any bearing on the title chosen by the committee. However, thej do set forth some important teachings regarding the nation, and the teacher should carefully bring out their viral meaning. The New Testament nowhere teaches that any nation will be made Christian in this dispensation; but rather that Christ is gathering out from among the nations the people who shall constitute His church, showing that God’s purpose is the salvation of individuals. 1. “Blessed Is the Nation Whose God Is the Lord.” (Psa. 3”:12). I his verse shows Israel’s peculiar distinction. Israel is the only nation of which, in name even, it could be said that .Jehovah was its God. He called this nation into being for a peculiar purpose. It was not a case where a nation chose God. but when* God chose a nation for His own inheritance. It would be blessed to have an inheritance in God, but how infinitely more blessed to be God's inheritance! N'o nation can have Israel's unique place, but the nation which today gives God His rightful place in its affairs shall be singularly blessed. America has been signally blessed in the times when she acknowledged God. In the recent awful war when the national congress set aside a day of prayer. God heard the cry of His people and victory was i , given to the allies. 11. A Nation's Glory (Prov. 14:34). The only fame for which a nation may justly be proud is righteousness, the rendering to all their dues. It is this that makes a nation strong and influential. A nation that sins—■ counts its sacred covenants as "scraps of paper,” becomes an outcast among the nations and eventually goes down to ignominious defeat. The nation that has no righteousness as its standard has no right to exist.

13:1-10). The believer in Christ is a citizen as well as a church member. Intelligent Christians will show loyalty to ; the state as well as to the church. The • failure to recognize this has brought , j Christianity into disrepute in many quarters. 1. The Christian's obligation to the | state (vv. 1-7). This obligation is ; upon all Christians. The reason this i ' obligation is universal is that civil ■ government is ordained of God. and ’ the rulers are His representatives. So- | ciety could not exist without govern- I ment. It Is God's purpose that man , should live under authority. To refuse obedience to civil authority is to resist God. Os course, this does not j mean that a Christian at the behest of the state should do that which is morally wrong; just as parental authority does not imply that the child is uni der obligation to do that which is mori ally wrong at the command of parents; j but it does demand submission as the law <>f the believer's life. This is the law of the b« liever's life not only beeause God is the «.urce of civil an- ! thority. but because it was ordained ' for benefleient ends. The Christian ! frequently has need to call upon nil- ; ers for help and personal protection I (Act s 1s : 12-17 ; Ri : ;?5-11 ; 22 :25). I Laws were not made for the righteous, i but for the lawless. (2, Tlie spirit of such obedience (v. 5). It is to be conscientious, that | is. it is to be regarded not merely as serving a anod purpose, but morally right. (3) The nature of this obedience • (vv. G, 7). (a) Payment of personal ' and property taxes. The citizens who enjoy the benefits of government are | morally bound to support it. (b) Pay- | ment of duty upon merchandise and ‘ license fees. The business exchange i between nations must be regulated. For such regulations expense is in- i curved, for which benefits the citizens should pay. (e) Veneration of mag- ■ istrates. "Lear to whom tear.” Those who fear God should venerate his rep- I resentaiives. that is, civil rulers, (d) "Honor to whom honor,” that is, honor I oi civil -ervanls because of the minis- ; try they perform. 2. The Christian's obligation to his fellow citizens (vv. s -10). This is i summed up in the word "love.'' Love is a jwrpetual obligation. The only debt that is riaht to owe is that of

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never Suspect It Applicants for Insurance Often Rejected. Judging from reports from druggists who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming I these conditions. The mild and healing i influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in »n interview on the subject, made the astonishing statement that one reason why «o manv applicants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the | large majority of those whose applicaI Cions are declined do not even suspect i that they have the disease. It is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, । medium and large. However, if you wish first to test this ; great preparation send ten cents to Dr. . Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N.

JUST MATTER OF DEDUCTION As the Boy Explained It, the Finding of Horse Was Really Quite Simple Matter. Speaking of the development of the story-telling talent in youth. R chard Bennett, the actor, is fond of relating this incident: Some years ago a prominent citizen of a town lost a horse. It was not much of a horse. In fact, it v -a in one eye and spavined. But. perhaps as a relic, Bennett says, the prominent citizen wanted the horae. So he advertised, offering $5 reward for its return. The toeu half-wit. a boy of nineteen, with a harelip, eame one afternoon leading the horse, with a strap about the size of a slioestri: g, to the prominent citizen's door. The horse's owner was pleased. "Now,” said he kindly, scenting a good narrative and perhap- an adventure, “now. my boy. 1• : - your $5; ami I’ll give you a;, q, - ; f you'll tell me just how you found t. y horse.” "Well, all right.” said the boy. “I ; Jus’ thought if I was that Id h rse ; where 1 would go, and I did and he i was.” He got the extra five.—Kansas City j Star.
