MOTHER! LOOK AT
CHILM TONGUE
If cross, feverish, constipated,
give "California Syrup
of Figs."
A laxative today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Children simply will not
take the time from play to empty their
bowels, which become clogged up with
waste, liver gets sluggish; stomach
•our.
Look at the tongue, mother! If coat-
ad, or your child Is listless, cross, fev-
erish, breath bad, restless, doesn't eat
heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other children's aliment, give a
teaspoonful of "California Sytup of
Figs." then don't worry, because It Is
perfectly harmless, and In a few hours
all this constipation poison, sour bile
and fermenting waste will gently
move out of the bowels, and you have
a well, playful child again. A thor-
ough "Inside cleansing" Is ofttlmes all
that Is necessary. It should be the
llret treatment given In any sickness.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask at the store for a 60-cent bottle of
"California Syrup of Figs," which has
full directions for babies, children of
all ages and for grown-ups plainly
printed on the bottle. Adv.
Benefited by Prohibition.
Dealers In soda fountain supplies,
except Ice cream, say that the nation-
wide Increase of prohibition Is appre-
ciably reflected in added business for
them, the demand having Increased
about $1,000,000 in each of the last two
years.

TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS
WHEN BLADDER BOTHERS
Msrmlees to Flush Kidneys and Neu-
tralize Irritating Acids—Splendid
for the System.
Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass It on to the bladder,
where It often remains to Irritate and
Inflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an Irritation
st the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer Is in
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
snd la very profuse; again, there is
difficulty In avoiding it
Bladder weakness, most folks call
It, because they can't control urina-
tion. While It is extremely annoying
snd sometimes very painful, this is
really one cf the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful In a glass of
water beforo breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids in the urine so It no
longer is a source of Irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which then
set normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon Juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, effefves-
cent llthis-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.—Adv.

LESSON FOR FEBRUARY 21
TMfc SEVEN HELPERS.
LESSON TEXT—Acta 1
h,fl5LL>EN^rBXT-Bear ye on* another'#
OaJ «:l *° 0,1 the Uw of cl>rl«t.—
It would be s source of great bless-
ing If every teacher and scholar would
read through the book ot Acts aeveral
times during the year. Such reading
will give vision, inspiration and a
more comprehensive Idea of the con-
tinuation of what Jesus "began'' and
which record 1s not yet fully written.
The time of this lesson is about A. D.
35, though Ramsey places it at 32, 33;
and the place, the city of Jerusalem.
I. The Occasion, w. 1-2. For a time
the preaching oi the Gospel of Jesus
continued in Jerusalem, but soon the
pressure ot circumstances thrust, it
forth aa prophesied (1:8). There
were two groups of men In the early
church: those who bad been born in
Judea who apoke Hebrew (Aramaic),
snd those born in foreign cities and
who spoke the Greek language. Trou-
ble arose over the distribution of funds
among certain of the dependent wid-
ows—the text suggests "secret dis-
pleasure." There was imperfection,
selfishness, suspicion and Jealousy in
that early church.
II. The Method, w. 3, 4. It does not
appear that God gave the church a
cut and dried program according to
which it must act. Certainly the
church had no precedent to follow,
snd step by atep God was developing
It. This lesson gives us a suggestion
of those steps: (1) As the occasion
demanded, (2) The Apostles refused
to diminish their praying and preach-
ing, literally It was "not pleasing" to
God for the Apostles to "serve tables."
Such work must be done, certainly,
but it was not to be done by these
God-appointed snd selected leaders,
their duty was clearly stated. The
minister's business is praying and
ministering the word. These things
should fully engage his attention, and
in them he is "to continue steadfast-
ly*' The minister cannot manifestly
"know more about books than the
schoolteacher: more about politics
than the politician: more about med-
icine than the doctor*, more about
psychology than the college profes-
eor." No, that is out of the question,
though he should be intelligent in
these lines. But he should be pre-
eminent in prayer and in the minis-
try of the word, and furthermore ho
should preach that word preeminent-
ly. (3) The church, not the apos-
tles, must needs select these new of-
flcials. (4) The qualifications ot
these men. who were thus to care
for these tempera! affairs, were 'a)
"men or good report." not those bear-
ing doubtful reputations, nor chosen
because they were rich or shrewd in
business. (b) "full of the spirit." It
demands the Spirit-filled man to look
after financial affairs as certainly as
It does to teach or preach the word,
(c) "full of wisdom. ' Men of com-
mon sense, a quality often sadly lack-
ing among spiritually-minded men.
Men meeting such qualifications will
be men of "the spirit ot power, of
love, and of a sound mind'' (llterallv
Bound sense). (II Tim. 1:7).
III. The Method of Choosing, w. 5,6.
(1) The people did the choosing. The
early church seems to have been re-
markably democratic. (2) The choice
was made after, and not before, pray-
er had been offered. This is a sug-
gestion and a warning for present-day
practice of choosing church officials.
(3) It was a legal selection, not the
selection of a minority, and It was
confirmed by the laving on of the
hands of the apostles.
IV. The Result, vv. 7, 8. First of all
upon the people. (1) The-word "in-
creased '(2) The number of disciples
"multiplied greatly.' and (S) Some of
the priests ot the Jews were "obedi-
ent to the faith.' Secondly, the re-
sult in the lives of the thus chosen
and Spirit-anointed men gave evidence
ot the good hand of God. They were
"full of grace" <Eph. 4:9, Acts 15:15);
they were full of power (1:8). The
first two of them soon became great
and mighty preachers as well. In-
deed as far as we can read they even
outstripped the apostles themselves
in real achievement for God. Hte-
phen. of course, stands out pre-emi
nently. His character Is suggested in
verse eight. He was (a) "full ot faith,
lb) "full of the Holy Spirit,"" (c) "full
of rrace (R. V ), (d) "full of power.
Hew sad It is that so frequently our
churches fall to make a wise and
spirit led choice ot its leaders, and are
content with few, or perhapa none, be
lag added to ita membership.

"ANURIC!
NEWEST IN CHEMISTRY
This is s recent discovery cf Doctor
Pierce, head of the Invalids' Hotel,
Buffalo, N. Y. Experiments for sev-
eral years proved that there is no
other eliminator of uric acid compa-
rable. For those easily recognized
symptoms of inflammation—as back-
ache, scalding urine and frequent uri-
nation, as well as sediment In the
urine, or if uric acid In the blood has
caused rheumatism, "Anurlc" acts
quickly. In rheumatism of the joints,
in gravel and gout, invariably the
pains and stiffness which so frequently
and persistently accompany the die-
ease rapidly disappear.

"Pape's Diapepsin" settles sour,
gassy stomachs in five
minutes—Time it!
Tou don't want a slow remedy when
your stomach is bad—or an uncertain
one—or a harmful one—your stomach
is too valuable; you mustn't injure it.
Pape's Diapepsin is noted for its
speed in giving relief; ita harmless-
ness; its certain unfailing action in
regulating sick, cour, gassy stomachs.
Its millions of cures in indigestion,
dyspepsia, gastritis and other Btomach
trouble has made it famous the world
over.
Keep this perfect stomach doctor in
your home—keep ^t handy—get a large
flfty-cent case from any dealer and
then if anyone should eat something
which doesn't agree with them; if
what they eat lays like lead, ferments
and sours and forms gas; causes head-
ache, dizziness and nausea; eructa-
tions of acid and undigested food-
remember as soon as Pape's Diapepsin
comes in contact with the stomach all
such distress vanishes. Its prompt-
ness. certainty and ease in overcoming
the worst stomach disorders is a reve-
lation to those who try it.—Adv.
