WHY THE FIFTH MAN LEFT
He Wore a Wig and the Other Four
Men at the Table Were Bald
—and Talkative.
In the smoking room of a west
bound ocean liner two days out from
an English port, live men sat at a
"small game" of poker. When the
chips had been cashed in the men re
tained their places, and presently one
of the party said: "This Is funny;
four bald heads out of a possible
Ave," and then there was a discussion
as to the causes of baldness, In which
all took part except the unafflicted
man, who was a good listener for a
while. He then bade the others good
night. When he had gone the young
est of the group, who was less bald
than the others, said: "Do you know
why Mr. Blank made the getawayT
He wears a wig, and Is probably as
He wears a wig, and is probably as
bald as any of us." And for the rest
of the Journey Mr. Blank's head was
the object of study—at a distance —
for he never again appeared In the
smoking room.
RINGWORM ON CHEEK
Somerville, N. J. —"My daughter's
ringworm was quite obstinate. First
a red spot appeared on her and
another just behind the ew, running
into her scalp about the size of a
dime. They were hot and itching.
Scales formed and caused her to
scratch, which made it inflamed and
sometimes drew the blood. I tried
but it kept growing. I had to cut the
hair from the ringworm that ran in
the scalp. It must have been of two
■weeks' standing as it had grown to a
good size, when I got my husband to
get me a sample of Cuticura Scap and
Ointment I washed it with hot water
and Cuticura Soap, then applied the
Cuticura Ointment. The first appli
cation benefited her. When my sam
ple was used I saw it was not so large
and angry, so I bought a box of Cuti
cura Ointment, and a cake of Cuticura
Soap and applied them three times a
day. The constant use for four or five
days checked its growth and in two
weeks more she was entirely cured.
Cuticura Soap and Ointment also
cured my son in two weeks of a case
of ringworm." (Signed) Mrs. A- E.
Neville, Dec. 19, 1911.
Cuticura Soap and Ointment sold
throughout the world. Sample of eaoh
free, with 32-p. Skin Book. Address

"I hear your son's at college learn*
In' to be a author. Do you expect
he'll soon learn to write for money?"
"Humph! He don't do nothin' else

Sailing Ships in Demand.
In consequence of the better outlook
for sailing ships, values have gone up
considerably during the last year or
two. For instance, a four-masted sail
ing ship of 2,750 tons register, which
was sold in January last year for $32.-
500, is at present in the market for
sale, and the owners have refused a
definite offer of $45,000; they are ask- i
ing $50,000.
IT'S THE FOOD.
The True Way to Correct Nervous
Troubles.
Nervous troubles are more often ;
caused by improper food and indiges
tion than most people imagine. Even
doctors sometimes overlook this fact
A man says:
"Until two years ago waffles and
butter with meat and gravy were the
main features of my breakfast. Finally
dyspepsia came on and I found myself
In a bad condition, worse in the morn
ing than any other time. I would have
a full, sick feeling in my stomach,
with pains in my heart, sides and
head.
"At times I would have no appetite,
for days, then I would feel ravenous,
never satisfied when I did eat and Bd
nervous I felt like shrieking at the
top of my voice. I lost flesh badly and
hardly knew which way to turn until
one day I bought a box of Grape-Nuts
food to I could eat that. I tried
it without rolling the doctor, and liked
it fine; made me feel as if I had some
thing to eat that was satisfying and
still I didn't have that heaviness that
1 had frit after eating any other food.
"I hadn't drank any coffee then In
five w<>eks. 1 kept on with the Grmpe-
Nuts and In a month and a half I had
pained 15 pounds, could eat almost
anything I wanted, didn't feel badly
after eating and my nervousness was
all pone. It's' a pleasure to be well
ugaln."

GRANGE PICMC
IN BERKS^OUNTY
New Institution Where Farmer
Adopts Latest Devices
GOOD-BYE TO ALL DRUDGERY
Machinery, in Barn and Field, as Well
as in Laundry and Kitchen, Does
the Toiling—Resembles County
Fair Without Fat Woman.
Reading.—Berks county farmers de
light togo to picnics, whether Sun
day school celebrations, family re
unions, sacred co'ncerts, battalions or
carnivals. Picnics in Berks county,
however, change, as other fashions
vary from season to season. The lat
est in picnic style among the sturdy
Pennsylvania German farmers of this
county is the "grange picnic," con
ducted on an entirely new order, and
In some respects resembling a little
county fair ,with the barker and the
fat woman, eliminated, but retaining
exhibits of machinery and faiHning
implements. To Shartlesville Grange,
of which Frank G. Hollenbach, a
teacher-farmer, is master, belongs the
credit for this new style of gathering.
This grange extended an invitation to
every farmer along the foothills of the
Blue Mountains from Shartlesville to |
j Hamburg to congregate in one of the I
| prettiest groves at the edge of the ;
, mountain for a social good time, to
I listen to good speakers and to study j
1 handy convenances manufactured to
lessen the labor of the farmer and his
good housewife.
New Life to Women.
There was a time when Berks coun- !
ty women took little interest in farm
life, which meant toil and spin from
; morn till night, grinding along in a
life of drudgery. But that day has
gone in thin county. Berks has woman
ly enthusiasts in a most wide-awake
condition in practically every farm
house now, aAd when the husband is
unable to manage, the little woman
fills the bill. Farm life is no longer
drudgery here. The home paper and
the agricultural weekly, the grange
and the farmers' union, better machin
ery, the improved rural school and up
to-date country church, all have helped i
to change those wretched conditions, j
Machines Worth While.
Another feature of this picnic was
, the way the farmers gathered around
1 the machines, placed here by imple- j
! nient dealers for inspection. They j
studied these until darkness obscured i
| their vision, and many' a housewife |
| this winter will have a small gasoline J
' engine in the little wash-house on the
farm, and there will be no more back
| aches caused by standing over wash- j
tubs, or at kindred toil, for that little ;
' engine will do all that, even to wring- '
lng out the clothes, turning the churn i
and separating milk from the butter j
fat.
Would-Be Duelist Whipped.
Bethlehem. —A quarrel over two ;
girls led Robert Banner, a proprietor j
I of a shoe store here, to send a chal- j
lenge to William Aliinger, a foreman
at the Bethlehem Steel Works, to fight
1 i duel with revolvers. Aliinger agreed, I
■ but when Banner hired an auto to take
hi mout into a secluded spot in the '
country to flglit the duel, Aliinger
backed out, acording to Banner. Ban- I
: ner tien challenged Aliinger to a bare j
I fist fight, and in the setto was badly i
pummelled.
Millions in New Jobacco.
Lancaster. —The farmers of Lancas- !
ter county tyave harvested their to- ]
bacco crop safely, and it will add sev- |
eral million dollars to their assets. I
They were badly scared in the early j
part of the week, when there wr®> dan
ger of frost and some of them kept j
fires burning on their fields. One far- ;
mer housed a dozen tramps during ]
the rainy weather of the preceding
week on condition that they would
help with the harvest; then they all I
lied and"lit out."
Wage Increase for Linemen.
Hazleton.—The linemen of the Har
wood Electric Company, the big con
cern that is supplying current from i
here to towns in this section of the I
State within a radius of 40 miles, re- |
ceived notice of a wage advance. I
Heretofore they got $2.50 a day and
had no limit of hours. In the future i
they will be paid 33 cents an hour, j
They work no fewer than eight hours
a day. There was talk of a strike in
case the demands had been turned j
down.
Slides Ear Almost Off.
Huntingdon.—Doctors used twelve !
stitches to place the left ear of Chas. !
Omo, baseball player and track ath- 1
lete, back on his head. Omo was
warming up on the Juniata College
elndor path when he was thrown and
slid about thirty feet on the left side,
tearing his eaa* almost ofT.
Man Hurt Saving Women.
Shamokln.—George Stelnhart was
badly injured here while saving a
number of women from a frightened
horse. The women were standing near
a huckster's wagon close to the Penn
sylvania Railroad track -when a train
drawn by two engines approached.
The horse grew scared and plunged
In every direction throw!,ng the
women into a panic. Stelnhart tried
to subdue the animal. The wagon
was backed onto tho tracks by the
horse and the trtin collided with the
conveyance.

LESSON
(By E O. SELLERS. Director of Evening
Department, The Moody Bible Institute,
Chicago.)
LESSON FOR OCTOBER 20.
MIBSION TO THE GENTILES.
LESSON TEXT-Mark 7:24-30 and Mat
thew 8:5-13.
GOLDEN TEXT—"Him that Cometh to
me I will in no wise cast out."—John
f:37.
Chronologically the incident of the
centurions servent precedes that of
the Syrophenician woman, though we
will look at them in the order sug
gested. The one Incident occurs near
the border of Tyre and Sldon, prob
ably about May or June, A. D. 29, and
the other in Capernaum during the
summer of A. D. 28. Both are inci
dents in the life of Jesus that have
to do with his ministry as the Hebrew
Messiah to those who were outside of
the pale of Judaism.
At the beginning of Mark's record
(v. 24) we have a wonderful sugges
tion as to the strain of Jesus, ministry
and the accompanying lesson that
true righteousness cannot be hid, it
speaks for itself.
There are four uses of the word
I "answered" in Matthew's record of
this incident (Matt. 15:21-28) that are
suggestive. Let us first, however, get
the setting. This woman was a Greek
—a Gentile; by race she was a Sy
rophenician, that is, a Canaanite.
'Jhus she was a descendant of that
race whom God, by the hand of Josh
-1 ua, had driven out to make room for
! the Hebrew nation, and as such is
under the ban of God. See Eph. 2:12.
Yet this woman reaches Jesus, her
trouble being that her daughter is
possessed by an unclean spirit. At
her approach she takes a lowly place
at Jesus' feet and requests that he
heal the child. She calls him the
"Son of David," and"He answered
her not a word." Matt. 15:23. She
had no claim upon him as the Mes
siaht" This was the wrong footing, for
she was not a child of the kingdom.
It was her need that drove her to
him. How she had heard of him is
suggested in Mark 3:8 and 7:24, cf.
Rom. 10:17. There are some ques
-1 tion that silence will not Answer. A
wrong conclusion will be reached, as
in this case the disciples came to a
wrong conclusion and desired to
| "send her away." Contrast Jesus'
. patience with the disciples' impa
; tience, "she crieth after us" and em
phasize the danger of external judg
ment There are many great moral
issues today that are demanding an
other answer than that of silence.
The Answer of Law.
Jesus then made a second answer,
the answer of law, Matthew 15:24, in
which he accepts her estimate of him
as the Jewish Messiah. His work
was primarily to the Jews (John 1:11,
12). But her need was great, and
identifying herself with the need of
the child Bhe "worshipped" Jesus.
He is more than the Messiah, he is a
Saviour. Not yet, however, is Jesus
ready to grant her request. His third
answer (v.25), the answer of mercy,
;is literally that first the children
must be fed, and she replied, "Yea,
Lord; even the dogs under the table
j eat of the children's crumbs." For
! this saying, viz., that she did not pro
test against the words he had spoken,
but accepted the proper estimate of
him as being the Jewish Messiah and
herself as outside of that covenant,
I he made a fourth answer, the answer
to faith. He answered: "O, woman,
great is thy faith," v. 28, and grants
; her carte blanc (v. 28), "be it unto
j thee even as thou wilt." As outcasts,
! we must cast ourselves "at his feet."
Let us now look at the account of
; the centurion's servant. Once more
Jesus is appealed to by one who is
outside the Hebrew covenant and on
! behalf of a servant. In the other in
i cident there was the Interruption of
j a seeming refusal and here the Inter
ruption of an instantaneous granting
of the request. Again we need to
read the parallel accounts given by
the other evangelists. Verse ten of
j this section is the key to this whole
j Btory. What are some of the marks
of a "great faith?" First, it is
! tested. The servant was "dear unto
the centurion," Luke 7:2. Second, it
! Is progressive "when he heard of
Jesus," Luke 7:3. Third, it will be
recognized by others, Luke 7:4.
The Great Faith,
j The protest In v. 9, and the remark
| able commendation of Jesus thereon,
I is a solemn warning to all who are in
: covenant relations with God and his
Son whom he has senti Jesus had there
a glimpse of that great coming day
when all Gentiles would be gathered
unto hlin, v. 11 (cf. Rev. 7:9). The
centurion received for his faith com
mendation, und healing for his servant
as well, v. 13.
Why should there be such a differ
ence in the treatment of these two
when we read of that they had
great faith?— Matthew 15:28 and 8:10.
Tho difference can be explained only
by the fact that the Master knew all
tho facts about both and he adopted
such tactics for each as were best
suited to the case. This impresses
us with the truth that personal worl"
cannot be done by any rule of thumb:
Indeed, the Master seems seldom t<
tinve ueed the same method twice. 1'
