YOUR BRONCHIAL TUBES
When a cold settles in the bronchial
rubes, with that weakening, tickling
rough, immediate treatment is very ;
'important. The breath seems shorter
oecause of mucovis obstructions; usu- 1
ally fever is present, your head jars with
rvery cough and your chest may ache.
This is no time for experimenting or
delay—you must get Scott's Emulsion
»t once to drive out the cold which
started the trouble, and it will check
the cough by aiding the healing pro
cess of the enfeebled membranes.
If you have any symptoms of bron
chitis. or even a stubborn cold, always
remember that Scott's Emulsion has
been relieving this trouble for forty
years. It is free from alcohol or drugs.
Refuse substitutes.

WOMEN SHOULD
GET THIS HABIT
AS WELL AS MEN
Don't eat bite of breakfast until;
you drink glass of
hot water.
llapvy, bright, alert—vigorous and
vivacious—a good clear skin; a nat
ural. rosy complexion and freedom
from illness are assured only by
clean, healthy blood. If only every
woman and likewise every man could
realize the wonders of the morning
inside bath, what a gratifying change
would take place.
Instead of the thousands of sickly,
anaemic-looking men, women and
girls with pasty or muddy complex
ions; instead of the multitudes of
"nerve wrecks," "rundowns," "brain 1
fags'' and pessimists we should see a
virile, optimistic throng of rosy
cheeked people everywhere.
An inside bath is had by drinking,
each morning before breakfast, a
slass of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate In It
to wash from the stomach, liver, kid
neys and ten yards of bowels the pre
vious day's IndigesUble waste, sour
fermentations and poisons, thus
cleansing, sweetening and freshening
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
Those subject to sick headache, bil
iousness. nasty breath, rheumatism,
colds; and particularly those who
have a pallid, sallow complexion and
who are constipated very often, are
urged to obtain a quarter pound of,
limestone phosphate at the drug store'
which will cost but a trifle but is
sufficient to demonstrate the quick
snd remarkable change in both health
and appearance awaiting those who
practice internal sanitation. We must
remember that inside cleanliness is
more Important than outside, be
cause the skin does not absorb im
purities to contaminate the blood,
while the pores in the thirty feet
of bowels do.—Advertisement.
PUI STOMACH IN
FINE CONDITION
Says Indigestion Results From
An Excess of Hydrochloric
Acid.
Undigested food delayed in the i
stomach decays, or rather, ferments
.the same as food left in the open air,
says a noted authority. He also tells j
us that Indigestion is caused by Hyper
acidity, meaning, there is an excess of;
hydrochloric acid In the stomach
which prevents complete digestion
and starts food fermentation. Thus i
■everything eaten sours in the stomach
much like garbage sours in a can, ]
Torming acrid fluids and gases which ■
inflate the stomach like a toy balloon, j
Then we feel a heavy, lumpy misery;
in the chest, we belch up gas. we
eructate sour food or have heartburn,
flatulence, water-brash or natisea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and Instead, get from any phar
•macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
.take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast and drink
•while it is effervescing and further
more, to continue this for a week.
"While relief follows the first dose,, it
•is important to neutralize the acidity,
remove the gas-making mass, start 1
'the liver, stimulate the kidneys and
thus promote a free flow of pure di
gestive juices.
Jads Salts is inexpensive and is
made from the acid or grapes and
lemon juice, combined -with lithia and
sodium phosphate. This harmless
salts is used by thousands of people
for stomach trouble with excellent re
sults.

TIMELINESS OF
LESSON UNCANNY
Clearest Light in WorM War
Shed by the Bible; Studies
in Faith
Tlie International Sunday School l.es
swm For March 12 Is "Heroes and
Martyrs of Faith."—Hebrews 11:1;
12:2.
(By William T. Ellis)
The timeliness of the present Sun
day School Lesson Is almost uncanny.
It could not be more appropriate If It
had been planned yesterday. The
clearest light on the world war is !
shed by this old book which is eter-1
nally contemporaneous. Xone of the
many utterances on the present Ar- ;
menian massacres can match this
passage from the Book of Hebrews.
In an hour when the church most
needs a tonic for faith we have this
sublime study, re-enforced by the daily
news from the churches in Asia.
Every nation In Europe Is at the
present moment giving the world a
lesson in faith, and in the reality and
supremacy of the Invisible things.
They live in faith, the faith of their
people In the spiritual qualities of
their country. This faith and vision,
which commonly passes by the name
of patriotism, is a vaster and more vi
tal thing than most of the world real
ises. It has made over the life of the
older nations of Europe. They are
being saved by faith. Millions of men
have dared death In the trenches be
cause of this larger vision. Economists
may sneer at sentiment as futile and
emotional —I read such an article an
hour ago—but it still rules the world.
In the largest meaning of the phrase
we are always being saved by faith.
That truth is written in all history,
and never more clearly so than to
day; but it Is pre-eminently the mes
sage of the experience of the Christian
church. "This is the victory that over
cometh the world, even your faith."
When the inspired writer of the let
ter to the Hebrews wanted a perfect
example of faith, he turned to the ex
perience of the church. Do you want
more faith'.' Then read the Bible
more; for the principle lias been
clearly stated: "Faith cometh by
I.earing, and hearing by the word of
God." There is no cure for faltering
faith like the old story of how the
faith of the fathers has enabled frail
Birls, little children and aged men to
bear witness to their Christ and His
sufficiency.
The Greatest Victories
Mr. Materialist says to the young
lover. "You are only chasing a dream."
Yet that "dream," that intangible. In
explicable spiritual quality called love,
has glorified existence and wrought
more wonders than science. To the
statesmen Mr. Materialist says, "Be
practical: idealism is all well enough
to talk about at election time, but It Is
practical self-interest that rules the
world." To the patriot he says, "Gov
ernments are controlled onlv bv eco
nomic causes. All this talk about
the flag is sheer buncombe.'' And to
the sociologist lie says, "Altruism is
absurd. Human nature'is human na
ture and will he to the end."
"You poor blind fool." answers the
man of faith, "can you not look
around you and behind you, and sea
that It is faith, and only faith, that
has given us alMhat is great'ln hu
man life." Or. as a better answer,
let us quote the wonderful analysis
and vindication of faith, with its ap
peal to history, which constitutes the
present lesson:
"Now faith is the substance
of things hoped for, the evidence
of things not seen. And what
shall I more say? for the time
would fail ma to tell of Gideon,
and of Barak, and of Sampson,
and of Jephthah; of David also,
and Samuel, and of the proph
ets: Who through faith sub
dued kingdoms, wrought right
eousness, obtained promises,
stopped the mouths of lions,
quenched the violence of fire,
escaped the edge of the sword,
out of weakness were made
strong, waxed valiant In fight,
turned to flight the armies of
the aliens. Women received their
dead raised to life again: and
others were tortured, not accept
ing deliverance; that they might
obtain a better resurrection; and
others had trial of cruel mockings
and scourgings, yea, moreover
of bonds and imprisonment; they
were stoned, they were sawn
asunder, were tempted, were slain
with the sword; they wandered
about In sheepskins and goat
skins; being destitute, afflicted,
tormented; of whom the world
was not worthy; they wandered
In deserts, and in mountains, and
in dens and caves of the earth.
And these all, having obtained
a good report through faith, re
ceived not the promise: God
having provided some better
things for us. that they without
us should not be made perfect.
Wherefore, seeing we also are
compassed about with so great
a cloud of witnesses, let us lay
aside every weight, and the sin
which doth so easily beset us,
and let us run with patience the
race that is set before us, look
ing unto Jesus the author and
finisher of our faith; who for
the Joy that was set before Him
endured the cross, dlsplslng the
shame, and is set down at the
right hand of the throne of
God."
Vision and Victory
Faith is a force. This is clear, if
i anything is, from this great New
Testament passage. They who see
the invisible conquer the visible.
Spiritual qualities give a person "the
strength of ten." "Where there is
no vision the people perish." Is It
not manifest to all observing persons
that the "preparedness" most need
ed to-day by nations is the prepared
ness of the seeing heart? Once let
the spiritual impulses of the people
be stirred deeply, so that they mav
perceive the real nature of the na
tional problems which this new day
has brought* and they will inevit
ably do whatever else is necessary
to be done.. "Lord, increase our
faith," and our works will then take
care of themselves.
When the Christian Church has
been lowest In estate and highest in
faith she has had most power In the
world.* Her days of greatest weak
j neas have been when she has trust
ed most of her temporal power and
material wealth. The martyr church
has always been a mighty church-
Out of weakness she has been made
strong Uy faith. When filled with
faith and empty of goods the church
has gone everywhere conquering,
i Faith foils failure.
Like so much of the Bible, this
eleventh chapter of Hebrews is left
, unfinished. The roll of faith's
I heroes was called only down to the
'date of writing. It has been added to
Al> S S LESSON—MARCH 5-12 . . .
through ail the centuries since. This
'is a continued story, and the final
instalment will be Issued in heaven.

will be one of the joys of the glory
land.
Before our eyes, althouzh we have
been sinfully indifferent to it, has
been enacted one of the great experi
ences of witness-bearing and martyr
dom. Armenia's sufferings for the
sake of the Name deserve to be writ
ten as a supplement to the present
lesson. All the forms of persecution
enumerated in the Book of the He
brews, and then others still more
dreadful, have been endured by the
whole Armenian nation, with more
than half a million martyrdoms to its
credit within the past year.
Accepting the Evidence
A familiar and oft misunderstood
passage occurs in this Sunday school
lesson. In our Bibles it begins a
new chapter; but very wisely the
lesson committee incorporates it in
the same paragraph with the preced
ing chapter. After reciting the long
roll of heroes of faith and their
achievements and characteristics the
writer draws this conclusion:
"Wherefore, seeing we also are
compassed about with so great a
cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside
every weight and the sin which doth
so easily beset us"—the sin of unbe
lief —"and let us run with patience
the race that is set before us, looking
unto Jesus, the author and finisher
of our faith."
Millions of readers have assumed
that the "witnesses" are the persons
who are looking at us, those among
whom we live. On the contrary. The
word is used in its legal sense of
those who bear testimony. The wit
ness* who are to be taken into account
I
are not our neighbors, but this long
j line of testifiers enumerated in the
> i preceding chapter. These are the per
i j sons whose testimony we are asked to
accept. They bear witness to the su
premacy and power of faith. The ap
! peal Is to the reasonable mind that
• ! is willing to accept proof. Here are
a notable company of men and wo
i men. historical characters, who found
It victorious.
The idea will bear amplification.
There is all the contrast in the world
i between the real meaning of this
i j familiar passage and th« way it Is
| often misunderstood. We take too
; greatly into consideration the opin
i , ions of those nearest us. W« are
afraid of "what they say." Mrs.
. Grundy is queen of the world. Fear
11 of popular ridicule and disfavor is
i the anUnatlng motive of many. We
may be sure that the Bible would
; never appeal to so ignorable a prin
• ciple. Faith is not to be grounded
: on any popular verdict. Instead, the
Book of Hebrews turns the reader's
i j thoughts back to the oldest Scrip
• tures. "Faith comes • • • by
i the Word of God." A primary lesson
: of the present study is that faith Is to
be found and fortified in the Scrip
i! tures themselves.
With the Goal in Right
The story was told recently to a
friend of how the longest run on the
Princeton football field was made;
and the narrator was the player him
self. "X could hear the other man
coming behind me—thump, thump,
thump. I cannot tell you how great
the temptation was to look back over
A my shoulder to see how uear the njan
was to me. But I knew that if I
should look back I would be lost.
My only hope lay in keeping my eyes
steadfastly «on the goal In front of
me and doing my utmost to reach
that."
That football player did not know
it, but he was putting into the words
of a modern experience the principle
laid down in this great treatise on
Faith: "Looking onto Jeius, the au
thor and finisher of our faith; who
for the Joy that was set before him"
—note that here again the same prin
ciple operates—"endured the Cross,
despising the shame, and is set down
at the right hand of the Throne of
God."
It Is the eye of vision that gives
power to the feet of faith. They who
