    To Cure Catarrh
Purify the Blood
Itoaton it Out, Where Does it
Start the Mucus From ?
Innumerable catarrh sufferers have
cured themselves by purifying their blood
with S. S. 8. Catarrh often Invades the
entire system before It chokes the nasal
paaaages. It becomes so chronic and ex
tensive- that the stomach, llTer, kidneys,
bronchial tubes and most of tbe glands
are Involved without such serious condi
tions being realized. Catarrh may be
the result of some serious blood trouble
ot former years, and this is only one of
the many peculiar effects of Impure blood.
Kow S. S. S., In Its Influence upon the
mucous surfaces, causes those catarrhal ;
accretions to be changed or converted j
into a substance easily, quickly, and nat- ;
urally expelled from the body. It so :
changes this mucus that It Is not the
ropy, clogging stuff that plugs the nose,
chokes the throat, causes severe bowel
trouble, upsets the stomach and contam
inates the food jUBt entering the blood.
It Is often difficult to convince catarrh
sufferers that chronic cough, chest pains,
gagging, fetid breath and other symp
toms are only the local evidence of deep
seated trouble. Get a bottle of S. 8. S.
today and try it. You will get good re
sults, real benefit and soon be aware of
* gradual cleaning up and a chebk to the
progress and dangers of catarrh. Avoid
substitutes. R. S. S. Is prepared only by
The Swift Specific Co., 61 Swift Bide.,
Atlanta, Ga. They conduct a medical de
partment for free advice that Is worth
. while consulting.
F BACK HURTS
BEGIN ON SALTS
Flush your kidneys occasionally
if you eat meat
regularly
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally, says
a well known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which clogs the kidney pores
BO they sluggishly filter or strain only
part of the waste and poisons from
the blood, then you get sick. Nearly
all rheumatism, headache, liver trou
ble, nervousness, constipation, dizzi
ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts, or
if the urine i« cloudy, offensive, full
of sediment, irregular of passage or
attended by a sensation of scalding,
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any reliable pharmacy and take
a tablespoonful in a glass of water be
fore breakfast Tor a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This fa
mous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
Ilthia and has been used for genera
( tlons to flush clogged kidneys and
'>( stimulate them to activity, also to neu
tralize the acids in urine so it no long
er causes irritation, thus ending blad
der disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
not injure; makes a delightful effer
vescent lithia-water drink which all
regular meat eaters should take now
and then to keep the kidneys clean
and the blood pure, thereby avoiding
serious kidney complications.—Adver
tisement.

GETHSEII COMES
INTO EVERY LIFE
Sunday School Lesson on Crisis
of the Passion; Sal
vation's Cost
THE RENUNCIATION OF SELF
What Was "The Cup" That Jesus
Prayed Might Pass
Him
The International Sunday School Les
son For October 18 Is "In the
Garden of Gethsemane."
—Mark 14:32-34
By William T. Ellis
In this hour of Christendom's
Gethsemane, it is appropriate that
the millions of the Sunday school
should be called to tarry for a week
in that garden where suffering is
sanctified. The torn, bruised and be
reaved hearts of millions, which a
week ago were gay and careless, are
now turning to the memory of the
agony of the world's Saviour, in which
he sweat, as it were, great drops of
blood. The Garden of Gethsemane is
a common meeting ground to-day for
this agoninzing, warring world. God
grant that the spiritual significance
of the experience may not be missed.
Into the life of every Individual,
however shallow our nature, comes
an experience which we call "Geth
semane." Ella Wheeler Wilcox has
beautifully gathered this thought into
a poem:
"In golden youth, wren seems the
earth
A summer land for singing mirth;
When souls are glad and hearts are
light.
And not a shadow lurks In sight.
We do not know it, but there lies
Somewhere, veiled under evening
skies,
A garden all must sometimes see—
Somewhere lies our Gethsemane.
"With joyous steps we go our ways.
Love lends a halo to our days,
Light sorrows sail like clouds afar:
We laugh, and say how strong we
are. j
We hurry on, and hurry, go
Close to the borderland of woe,
That waites for you and waits for
me—
Forever waits Gethsemane.
"Down shadowy lanes, across strange
streams,
Bridged over by our broken dreams,
Behind the misty caps of years,
Close to the great salt fount of tears,
The garden lies; strive as you may,
You cannot miss it in your way.
All paths that have been, or shall
be.
Pass somewhere through Gethsemane.
"All those who journey, soon or late
Must pass within that garden's gate,
Must kneel alone in darkness there,
And battle with some fierce dispalr.
God pity those who cannot say,
'Not mine, but thine,' who only pray,
'Let this cup pass,' and cannot see
The purpose in Gethsemane."
The Old Garden Itself
Perhaps a word about the actual
spot where the agony of Jesus trans
pired, will make more definite our
thinking. The Garden of Gethsem
ane is one of the sacred sites concern
ing which there can be no doubt. The
present Garden of Gethsemane, sur
rounded by a stone wall, and contain
ing several venerable olive trees —one
of them surely more than a thousand
years old, is in the care of the Fran
ciscan monks. There can be no doubt
that, if it it not the actual scene of
the supreme tragedy, it is within a
few yards of it. The spot is one of the
most affecting upon earth, and the
reverent traveler goes thither again
and again into that peaceful, tenderly
kept garden, to let the dust of the
world be swept from his spirit by the
breezes of memory which blow
through the old olive trees.
Gray, as if they had won through
pain to peace, gnarled and twisted as
if thought suffering to strength, stand
these old olive trees which have wit
nessed so much of history. Beneath
these ancient trees the flowers bloom
In the garden, in sweet symbolism_of
the beauty and joy that have sprung
up in human life under the shadow of
the suffering, sympathetic Saviour.
The old monk who lovingly tends
the garden—how trivial the differen
ces between churches seem when one
comes to Gethsemane—with whom I
had congenial conversation, though
each of us could speak but little of
the other's language, gave me bits of
the tree from broken limbs, and these
I have had made into crosses for
friends. Often memory goes back to
that beautiful garden of renunciation
and of communion. To visit it Is to
know a chastening, sanctifying, uplift
ing experience.
Under the Trees of Olivet
All fine spirits Jove the out-oN
doors. In hours of st'ress and crisis
they instinctively turn to the woods
and the fields of the open skies. A
true nature-lover was Jesus; and he
was accustomed to resort to these
gray leaves of olive trees on the west
slope of Olivet, for prayer and media
tion and communion with the Father.
Even Judas knew this spot to be one
of his haunts.
So, in his great hour, Jesus took
his three closest friends and wend
ed his way down to the sheep-gate
at the northeastern corner of the
city, even as the traveler may do to
day; and crossed the brook Kedron
at about t..e spot where the lepers
now sit, and penetrated into the se
clusion of the grove, off from the
main highway.
Leaving behind even his closest
friends, the Master went Into the re
cesses of the woods alone. There Is
no room for a companion in the ulti
mate experiences of life. One by «>ne
we face the great verities. Even our
dearest must stay without the gate
of Gethsemane when we are sum
moned to enter. There, alone, be
neath the trees, Jesus underwent the
real crisis o>f his passion.
When Self-Assurance Failed
Most of us distrust the blatant per
son's loud word of self-confidence and
assurance of power. When Jesus inti
mated that his disciples would fail him
that night, Peter impetuously protest
ed that he would stand fast, though all
men fell away. The very boastfulness
of the utterances prepares us for the
subsequent events. The trouble with
Peter was that he was too self-reliant,
too sure of Peter, and not dependent
enough on God. No Christian may
count on himself to keep faithful; but
only on God to keep faith with him.
The words of consistency were
scarcely cold on the lips of the three
most loyal disciples before they were
overcome with sleep. They could not
watch while Jesus prayed. Their love
was not masterful enough to drive
sleep from their eyes, in even their
Leader's darkest hour. Gethsemane
will not have delivered its full mes
sage to us, unless It humbles our spiri
tual pride.
The Song and the Sweat
Two dramatic extremes are in this
story. It begins with a song, "When
"Somethm* for Nothin'"
Here at The Live Store we gain, through
a Careful expenditure of our money a pretty good
idea of the value of a dollar.
Now and then some worthy individual with
more wind than wisdom attempts to convince
us that somethin' for nothin' is ours for the
signin' on his dotted line.
For such men their merchandise and the
methods that accompany them the doors of The
Live Store swing OUTWARD.
We cannot buy quality in merchandise for
less than the price thereof, no one else can either.
We cannot sell merchandise which will ren
der true service for less than such merchandise
costs and stay in business, and because most men
realize this, because they know that this is a store
of quality, because they're content to pay a fair
price for a full enjoyment in their clothing, we
have grown to be Harrisburg's largest leading
store for men.
We have THE HOUSE OF KUPPENHEIMER to
thank in a large measure for the greater degree
of quality, the greater value we are able to offer
in clothing.
You have this store to thank for the perfect
ing of a greater-value-giving organization second
to none.
You have also our word for it that what ever
you purchase here must satisfy or we cannot,
rather we will not, keep your money.
utwnntiaiM
they had sung a hymn they went out
into the Mount of Olives." Can we
conceive of it? Jesus going forth from
his last meal on the old terms with
his disciples; bearing In his heart tht
heavy consciousness that one of his
comrades was even at that moment
on an errand of treason; knowing that
he was going forth to agony beyond
words; to desertion by his dearest;
to betrayal and denial and to death
itself—with a song on his lips! Mark
this, all ye shallow optimists; here
is the world's highest mountain peak
of courage, the singing Saviour on the
way to the Gethsemane and Calvary.
We hear no tales from Europe's bat
tlefields like unto this.
The other extreme of the story is
the sweat of blood, a physical phe
nomenon not unknown to medical'
science, but marking the very ulti
mate of human intensity of suffer
ing. The blood from the punctures
of the thorn-crown, and from the
spear thrust of Calvary, were not so
significant as this crimson which the
agony of soul forced from the pores
of the Saviour's face. We must look
upon this to know what salvation
costs.
Why the Agony?
What was "the cup" that Jesus
prayer might pass from him? Was
it the arrest, the shame, the buffet
ings, the crucifixion? So we com
monly say; but others have pointed
out that this could hardly be the case,
since it was for this very purpose that
Jesus had come into the world: to miss
this would be to fall In his mission.
Surely, our Lord was not such a one
as would purchase Immunity from
pain at the cost of honor and duty.
Was it not rather, as has often
been suggested, that the agony of
Jesus was caused by the fear that
he might not physically be able for
his task, and that he might die be-
GREAT EXCITEMENT AT ERIE, PA,
Caused by
The following from a recent issue
of the Erie (Pa.) Times will give an
idea of what may be expected:
"Crowds of people to obtain the great
Quaker remedies. Two more cases of
marvelous results were reported yes
terday, which prove all the more
strongly the wonderful powers of
Quaker Extract and Oil of Balm.
Both are reports of well-known local
people and their addresses are given
so that all who -wish may investigate
further, Mrs. Krouse, wife of Frank
Krouse, the well-known property man
of the Park Theater (they live at 707
East Seventh street), suffered for
years from various stomach com
plaints, troubles and constipation.
When she got up In the morning she
felt worse than the night before and
always felt tired. Her tongue was
heavily coated and her breath bad.
After eating she would be subject to
bloating and belching, causing heart'
palpitation and dizziness. Her hands
fore his work was done? The hu
man fame had reached its limit. Noth
ing would please the adversary better
than the untimely death of Jesus.
There seems a reasonableness in this
idea, that he agony was from fear
that Christ might not physically be
able to fulfill his mission.
Whmt Maizes Gethsemane?
That point is only Incidental. The
great reality is that Jesus suffered as
never man suffered, but in the end
triumphantly declared, "Thy will be
done." Whatever the cause of the
wrenchings of the soul of the Redee
mer, they eventuated in a complete
and utter submission to the Father's
will. That is what makes a Gethsem
ane. A soul struggle which seeks first
of all docility to God and peace with
his purpose, is the only experience
that is worthy of this great name. Any
misfortune, however bitter, iB not a
'Gethsemane, unless it has this spiri
tual purpose and result.
The Garden of Gethsemane is the
garden of renunciation of self and of
content with God. The finest of all
poems .touching this experience of
Christ is that one born of Sydney
Lanier's dark hour, when he knew
himself doomed by disease, with his
life's dreams unfulfilled:
"Into the woods my Master went,
Clean forspent, forspent.
Into the woods my Master came,
Forspent with love and shame.
But the olives they -were not blind to
Him,
The little gray leaves were kind to
Him;
The thorn-tree had a mind to Him
When Into the wood He came.
"Out of the woods my Master went,
And he was well content.
Out of the woods my Master came.
Content with death and shame.
