    Reliable Laxative
Relieved
Child Was Badly Constipated
Until Mother Tried
Simple Remedy.
In spite of every care and atten
tion to diet, children are very apt to
become constipated, a condition re
sponsible for many ills In after life
unless promptly relieved.
Mrs. C. W. Wilson, .of Shelbyville,
Tenn., had trouble with her haby hoy,
Woodrow, until she heard of Dr. Cald
well's Syrup Pepsin. She writes, "1
- tan safely say Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin is the best remedy of its kind
on earth. It. acts so gently and yet -:o
surely. Little Woodrow was very
badly constipated and we could find
nothing that gave relief until we triad
your Syrup Pepsin, which gave im
mediate relief."
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a
compound of simple laxative herbs,
free from opiates or narcotic drugs,
mild in action, positive in effect and
pleasant to the taste. It has been pre
scribed by Dr. Caldwell for more than
a quarter of a century and can now
be had for fifty cents a bottle In any
PI T THE CAMP FIRE OCT
If the camp site is strewn with
leaves cut an evergreen branch, or,
with some other makeshift broom or
rake, clear all the ground of leaves,
pile them in a bare spot, and burn
them, lest a spark set the woods afire.
In evergreen or cypress forests there
is often a thick surf on the ground
(dead needles, etc.) that is very in
flammable. Always scrape this away
before building a fire. In a dry for
est carpet, or in a punky log, fire may
smoulder unnoticed for several days;
then, when a. breeze fans it into flame,
it may start a conflagration. One
can't he too careful about firo in the
woods. Never leave a camp fire or a
cooking fire to burn itself out. Drench
It with water, or smother it absolutely
by stamping earth upon it.—April

SOCIAL SERVICE
OLD AS CHURCH
Three Distinct Forms Stand
Out; Healing of Sick, Relief of
Poor, Driving Away Sorrow
TJio International Sunday School Les
son for April 9 Is "Aeneas and
Dorcas."—Acts 9:32-43.
(By William T. Ellis.)
The antiquity of the latest fashions
is a chastening theme to contemplate.
Our vaunted modernity is sevtarely
jolted when we discover that our new
ideas are centuries and even millen
niums old. Thus, this week's Inter
national Sunday School Lesson carries
us back to the facing of the fact that
the present-day vogue of social serv
ice—care for men's bodies and estate,
as well as for their spirits—is as old
as the Christian Church Itself.
Three distinct forms of social min
istry are the outstanding points in
the interesting old stories of the cure
of Aeneas and the raising from the
dead of Dorcas. First, we have the
healing of the sick by the Apostle
Peter. Second, we have the relief of
the poor, as represented by the work
of Dorcas. Third, we have the driv
ing away of sorrow by the resurrec
tion of Dorcas.
Already we have studied how the
Christian Church at the first genera
tion had attained a state of social and
economical interdependence that was
without precedent in history. The
most ideal example of communism
is that of the early Christians, when
no man counted his possessions his
own, but devoted them to the broth
erhood. The widows and the poor
were all cared for out of the common
funds. Modern social service has a
long way to go before It can catch up
to the first crop of Christians.
Wherein the Church has departed
from the practice of ministering to
all phases of human need she has de
parted from the example and precept
of the Apostolic Church and of the
great Head of the Church Himself.
A delicate and important point to be
observed today, however, is that all
the new swelling of the tides of broth
eriiness and ministry shall not be mis
labeled by merely sociological terms,
but should be understood as simple
Christianity, the love of Christ ex
pressed through the hearts of His Dis
ciples. We must not let a Kodless
fad steal the livery of the Christian
Church. What we have of effective
social service today is merely a new
expression of simple Christian minis
try.
What About The Shut-Ins?
From the days of Eden until now
the problem of pain has vexed the
world. Why does God permit suffer
ing'.' That is the oldest of the puz
zles thai has taxed the human brain.
We are not ready to admit that all suf
fering is evil, any more than our in
tellectual integrity will permit us to
••all it an illuSion. a nonexistent thing.
The world owes much to its invalids.
Some of the sweetest songs and most
life-gtving thoughts have risen from
beds of pain. There are graces, in
despensible to life in its fullness,
which seem to grow only in the hot
house of suffering. The metropolitan
newspapers recently printed columns
about a Brooklyn woman who had
been for fifty years a "shut-in", and
who had ministered greatly to the
world.
She glorified God as an Invalid.
Aeneas, the paralyzed man of our
story, glorified Him by n miraculous
recovery. Whether ill or well, whether
by enduring or recovering, we are to
fulfill life's chief end of glorifying
God.
The story of Aeneas is one of the
short and simple annals of pain.
I.uke, the physician, is observant to
note that he had, for eight years, been
bed-ridden with palsy. What a pic
ture the few words present! No per
son in the full tide of health and ac
tivities can understand what it means
to be a helpless invalid, dependent on
the ministry of loved ones for every
thing. For eight interminable years
Aeneas had lain on his pallet, or little
mattress, on the floor of a dingy Or
iental room. What had been his
thoughts during all this time when
there was nothing left for him to <lo
but think?
Into the darkness of the sufferer's
lot there had apparentlv penetrated
the radience of the Good News. The
implication of the story is that Aeneas
was a Christian. We should like to
know the difference between his life
before the Tidings which the scatter
ed disciples had carried.
Where the New Railway Runs
One day there came to the home of
Aeneas— wonder who was the wage
earner there, to maintain the home?
—the great-hearted Simon Peter.
This tireless apostle was a peripa
tetic preacher. Like Jesus, he "went
about doing good," he did not wait for
opportunities to come to him. With
the conversion of Saul, the young
Church had peace for a time, and was
spiritually built up. So from Jeru
salem as a center the apostles rest
lessly and resistlessly carried the word.
Lydda. or Lidd, where Aeneas li\ed,
is about twenty miles to the northwest
of Jerusalem, 011 the road to the,sea
port of Jaffa, which is ten miles fur
ther west. There was a community
of Christians here, as also at Jaffa.
Lydda was one of the main highways
up and down the Land, and Jesus
Himself had passed through it. Its
importance in history has been con
siderable, but now it takes 011 a. new
interest.
For today, Lydda Is the junction
point of the new railroad which the
Germans and Turks have built down
the center of Palestine to Beersheba.
For twenty years it lias been a sta
tion on the familiar railway line run
ning Into Jerusalem from Jaffa. Now
the rails between Jaffa and Lydda
have been torn up and used for the
construction of this new military rail
way, which runs from Beersheba up
to within a few miles of Nazareth,
where it connects with the Haifa-Da
mascus line. Thus has been built for

the first time, a railroad from Jeru
salem to Damascus. As the modern
military men halt in their journey I
at. Lydda, 1 wonder if they give
thought at all to the miracle there
wrought by Peter upon Aeneas?
It was all so simple and unspectac
ular that it takes only two sentences
in the inspired record to tell it:
"Peter said to him, 'Aeneas, Jesus'
Christ healeth thee: Arise, and make
thy own bed.' And straightway he
arose. And all that dwelt at Lydda
and Sharon saw him; and they turned !
to tiie Lord."
Who dares to attempt to portray J
all that this meant to the man who;
had been bed-ridden for eight years?
Or who can describe what salvation
'means to a human soul? Ten thou
sand hymns have attempted it, all
inadequately. It will need the "new
song" about the throne to express
fully, the joy of the redeemed. This ,
miracle, or "sign" also did its work in
winning the neighbors to the Way. .
Sending; for the Preacher.
A clergyman was calling upon some 1
friends, and apologized for his delay j;
in arriving in explaining that he had
been called across the city to a hospital
death-bed. "Why do people always
send for the minister when in trou- ;i
ble?" one present asked. To have'
made full answer to this question i,
would have been to vindicate the I
Christian ministry and its function In
the world, so my friend merely said,
"When death comes, petfple naturally
want a minister to comfort them. It t
is instinctive."
So it was when bereavement over- I
took the Christian community at Jaf
fa, they did the most natural thing in
the world: they sent lor Peter, who;
was only ten miles distant at Lydda.
: Apparently, they did not expect to
I have their dear one restored: they
• merely wanted to lean on the comfort
|of the presence of the friend of j
I Christ. In quite the same spirit, the j
ilrst action of the family today, when :
j death enters its circle, is to telegraph
| for the near relatives. Severance of
ties makes those which survive seem i
precious. The tender mood of the ;
mourners craved for companionship j
of tlies whom they loved. Of course, I
Peter made haste to answer the call.
That is obvious and to be ex- i
pected. It is no more worthy of re
mark than the msijiner in which min
isters today go forth, by day and by 1
night, cheerfully disarranging their
own plans, in order to comfort the
sick and ' the sorrowing. Very little j
Is said about the ministry of the cler

recipients it means more than the

tering saint of Jaffa, Dorcas. Thou
sands of Dorcas societies have been
formed in honor and imitation of her.
Let us read all that we know about
Dorcas, using the story as told in "The
New Testament —In Modern Speech:"
"Among the disciples at Jaffa was
a woman called Tabitha, or, as the
name may be translated, Dorcas.
Her life was wholly devoted to - the
good and charitable actions which she
was constantly doing. But, as It hap
pened, just at that time she was taken
ill and died. After washing her body
they laid it out in a room upstairs.
Lud, however, being near Jaffa, the
disciples, who had heard that Peter
was at Ludd, sent two men to him
with an urgent request that he would
come across to them without delay.
So Peter arose and went with them.
On his arrival they took him upstairs,
and the widow women all came and
stood by his side weeping and show
ing him the underclothing and cloaks
and garments of all kinds which Dor
caa used to make while she was still
with them. Peter, however, putting
every one out of the room, knelt down
and prayed, and then turning to the
body, he said,
" "Tabitha, rise.'
"Dorcas at once opened her eyes
and, seeing Peter, sat up." -
Here was a woman wlro found suc

word, in ways open to the humblest
woman on earth. Her sort of success
which is the best sort, had been
achieved by ministry in common ways
throughout the ordinary days. "Social

achieve "careers" as that word is com

so, are usually disappointed. Literally
every one, however, may win to the

Peter raised Dorcas from the dead.
That miracle advertised the super
