had formed part of one of the piers of
the Congress street bridge at Troy.
Whea the pier broke down after the
flood la the spring of 1913, the timber
was turned over to one of the material-testing
laboratories of the Insti
tute. It wss kept In the open air
for three months, and then placed In
a dry room Tor a Uttle more than nine
months. When placed in the testing
machine, the calumn failed nnder a
load of 384,000 pounds; that Is, the
long-submerged wood showed an ulti
mate strength of 1,670 pounds to the
square Inch. In the opinion of Prof.
T. R. Lawson. who conducted the test,
the remarkable strength of this piece
of hemlock seems to show that be

13:12, 11.
Someone has said that the Old Tes
tament is God's picture gallery where
be has given us
In picture form
the doctrines and
t rut til he devel'
ops ln the New
Testament. Our
text has three of
these pictures, In
which three
classes of persons
are described
Abram, Lot and
the men of Sodom.
Living for Self.
Taking these in
reverse order, we
can see bow the
men of Sodom
Illustrate a large
number of people
today. They are those whose under
lying principle might be termed liv
ing for self alone. They do not care
for r&il religion, but are occupied en
tirely with the things of time and
sense. What they will eat today or
what they will wear tomorrow is to
them vastly more Important than how
they will stand before God In the
future. Their effort Is concerned with
this life aione, and they live and work
and play as though there were no such
thing as eternity and no such person
as God. They come to the end like
the roan who told himself he could re
tire from business because he hid
much goods laid up for many years
and he could now afford to enjoy the
fruits of his toil and eat, drink and
be merry. Ilut he had laid up all his
goods on the earth; they were not
taken from him, but he was taken
from them, and it Is no wonder the
Lord says he was a fool. The class
under consideration are not neces
sarily bad people, for usually they are
tolerant of religion, as the people of
Sodom did not mind having Lot ln
their midst. But the religion that
Lot had was not very insistent. When
It would threaten to Interfere with
business or with pleasure it must not
be beard. It was time then to laugh it
out of court as a sort of fable, and
when it became personal Lot was to
them as one who mocked. And God
draws the picture of the end of these
who live for self alone. They come
to the end so hardened against relig
ion that they court their own doom, as
the men of Sodom were overcome by
the catastrophe which overwhelmed
both them and their city.
Living for Self and God.
The second picture Is that of Lot. In
whom the half-and-half Christian Is
easily seen. This man illustrates
those who seem to have, as the under
lying principle of life, the idea of liv
ing for self and for God too. They at
tempt to serve two masters, and, fall
ing to serve either, come to the end
with nothing to show for their labor.
They trust their own vlsiou end live
by sight and not by faith. Lot looked
on the well-watered plain and, as far
as he could see, it was the very thing
he' onght to have, the very thing that
was best for blm. But, as God saw,
it was the very thing be ought not to
have, the thing that was worst for
him. He hazarded everything he had
or hoped to have himself, his family,
his property on what he could Bee
with his own eyes, when he might
hare chosen what God could see. He
trusted himself rather than God and
the results were Inevitable. He lost
what God would have given him and
he lost the enjoyment the men of
Sodom had; for all the time he was
there his righteous soul was vexed.
He was neither out and out for self
nor out and out for God. Ho had tried
to live for God and self, he had tried
to serve two masters and to get both
pie wealth of Sodom and the wealth
ot God. But he ended with awful dis
aster, losing his property, his testi
mony, his family all that he had. It
Is still true that one cannot serve God
and Mammon. The half-antVbalf
Christian neither has peace and en
V 'vl

joyment In this life nor riches and
power in the next.
Living for God,
The last picture Is that ln which
the "out-and-out" Christian is seen in
Abram. The underlying principle of
his life seems to be that he had made
np his mind to serve' God alone. He
was far from being a perfect man. He
made many mistakes tnd even com
mitted some sins. Bnt underneath be
was living for God. He had learned
"thou shalt have no other God before
me" and his life was governed by
this principle. He recognized that he
could serve only one master with any
hope of success and he chose to have
the Lord as that one Master. What
he was and bad and hoped to be be
longed to that Master to do with as
the Master desired. Where he was
to be and go depended on that Mas
ter's direction.. He would not lean to
his own understanding nor judge by
the sight of his eyes nor walk by his
own wisdom. He would gladly take
the seeming second best from God, be
lieving that whatever appearances
jilght say, they could not toll the
whole truth. It looked to Abram any
thing but good when he was asked
to give his own son to God, but even
that was good in the eyes of God, and
now that the story Is all told, it is
good In the eyes of Abram too. If
those who are gone could, from their
graves, gaze over the path they have
trodden and then speak to us, the
unanimous testimony would be that
God's way Is beBt

LESSON FOR MARCH 21
JONATHAN AND HIS ARMOR
BEARER. LESSON TEXT-I B:imwl H:l-13.
GOLDEN TEXT-Let ui put on the ar
mor ot Uk-ht.-Kotn. 13:12. ,'
Samuel's review of his life of Integ
rity, his charge to the Israelites, God's
testimony of displeasure over their
persistent desire to have a king, ana
Samuel's words of comfort and as
surance as found In chapter 12, form
an intertsting connection with last
Sunday's lesson. In chapter 13 we
have the record of Ieracl again in dis
tress and of Saul's folly ln bis assum
ing the priestly office (vr. 13, 14).
I. Saul's Distress, vv. 1-4. That
Saul's disobedience, jnst indicated, bad
Incurred God's displeasure, we know.
It evidently had its ettect upon the
people also, for his army had dwindled
during the Intervening. fifteen or eight
een years, from 330,000 (ch. 11:8) to
a feeble 600 (v. 2). They were further
handicapped by a lack of weapons
(ch. 13:19-23). Deserted by Jehovah,
by Samuel, Jehovah's priest, and by
nearly all ot his enthusiastic subjects
(see 11:12) Saul was "in the uttermost
part of Glbeah" hiding under a pome
granate tree (nee vv. 11, 22 and 13:6).
This may refer to his being nt Rimmon
(Judges 20:43-47). In this retirement
Saul retains Ahluh (v. 3) as priest
thus keeping up the outward form of
worship. This priest is not referred to
as Jehovah's. He was a grandson of
Phlnehns, one of Eli's wicked sons,
and as such was not to be a successor
In the high priest's office (ch. 2:30
3C). Such an outward form of "dead
works" cannot take the place of a liv
ing faith. For Sanl to consult the or
acle of the Urim and Thummlm worn
by the priest and later to call up fa
miliar spirits, shows his lack of spir
itual apprehension. The references
made to Saul's conduct (chapters 12,
13) are an indication of his character
and emphasize the psalmist's words
as found ln Ps. 119:11. 105.
II. Jonathan's Victory, w. 4-13. But
God had one leader to whom be could
speak, Jonathan, who Is one of the
finest and most attractive characters
in the whole Bible. This episode is
among the most brilliant ln the his
tory of the Israelitish nation. It was
a brave deed, and an evidence of that
triumphant faith shown so clearly in
Jonathan's dealings with David. There
seems to be a suggestion that Jona
than had lost confidence In his fa
ther, for neither hef nor the people
knew where Jonathan had gone.
Verses 4 and 6 vividly picture the
nature of the location wherein Jona
than undertook this feat Jonathan
clearly counted upon the fleshly cov
enant sign as ground upon which to
expect help and victory over his ene
mies, who lacked such a sign (v. 6).
The army of the Philistines had been
divided Into three sections (Ch. 13:
17), and this gave Jonathan his op
portunity. The garrison at Mlchmash
was on the opposlto side of the ra
vine from Geba, Saul's headquarters.
Hidden by the cliffs It was quite easy
to approach the Philistines.
Jonathan It may be that the Lord
will work for us; for there Is no re
straint to-the Lord to save by many or
by few (v. 6).
Armorbearer Do all that Is in thine
heart; behold I am with thee.
Jonathan We will pass . .
over, and will discover ourselves.
The test, as recorded In verses 9
and 10 was a real one and a reve
lation of Jonathan's shrewdness. Not
to be Invited up by the Philistines
would suggest a desire they may have
bad to cover up any weakness. To be
asked to "come" suggests their self
confidence, carelessness and lack of
suspicion. Their contempt is Indi
cated and emphasized in the words:
"The Hebrews come forth out of th
holes where they had hid themsolves"
' (v. 11). Their pride Is shown by the
Invitation extended: "Come . . .
and we will show you a thing" (. 12).
At the first blow Jonathan and his
companion struck terror Into the
hearts of the camp, and this is In
tensified by an earthquake, for God
fousht on his side. From across the
valley the watchers of Saul's army
saw the consternation and together
those who had hidden themselves
Joined in making the victory both
great and complete (v 22). We of this
age have the covenant of the protec
tion and support of One who enables
the weakest to win victories (I Cor.
1:26-29; Zech. 4:6; Matt. 19:26). Jon
athan redeemed God's promise that
"one shall chase a thousand, and two
put ten thousand to flight" (Deut 32:
SO), and had an armorbearer "ready at
bis command." The exhortation to
each one is that we say to our great
Leader: "Do all that Is ln thine
heart; behold I am wi$ thee." Such
faith and Intrepidity was sufficient to
strike terror into the heart of the en
emy, but it is only possible to -those
whose confidence is that "the Lord will
deliver."
Today's Message. Two young men
of faith saved a nation sunk ln dospalr
and disgrace. They Inspired confi
dence In God and his promises. "Youth
for battles, old age for counsel," but
there are times that demand action
more than conference and considera
tion. Courage Is only of value, how
ever, when based upon much training,
devotion to God, the Interests ot oth
ers, and a clear vision. It is not a
mere flash in life's pathway. Courage
Is contagious; Jonathan's feat set on
fire the soul of a nation. ' Read again
the roll of honor ln the eleventh chap
ter of Hebrews. The highest courage
is cot physical but moral. This cour
age is open to all. but It Is intelligent
ly grounded upon God's sure revela
tion In hla word and in the person of
his Son, our Lord. "And his armor
bearer lifter him."

KIDNEYS CLOG UP FROM
EATIN3 TOO MUCH MEAT
Take Tablespoonful of Salts If Back

Forma Uric Acid.
We are a nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says
a well-known authority, who warns us
to be constantly on guard against kid
ney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of tbls irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork;
they get sluggish; the ellmlnatlve tis
sues clog and thus the waste is re
tained in the blood to poison tho en
tire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel
like lumps of lead, and you have sting
ing pains ln the back or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, or the blad
der Is irritable, obliging you to seek
relief during the night; when you have
severe headaches, nervous and dizzy
spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or
rheumatism in bad weather, gut from
your pharmacist about four ounces of
Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful ln a
glass of water before breakfast each
morning and ln a few days your kid
neys will act fine. This famous salts
Is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with lithla, and
has been used for generations to flush
and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neu
tralize the acids ln urine so it Is no
longer a source of irritation, thus end
ing urinary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive and cannot

DE8IRE OF WHI8KY VICTIM.
Some years ago In a village ot west
ern New York on election morning the
recognized village toper went to the
polls. He asked for a temperance bal
lot, and a liquor seller got blm one,
supposing a Joke was at band. Fold
ing It as best he could with trembling
hands, the blear-eyed, bloated-faced,
ragged, unkempt man went to the bal
lot box and registered his wish. Then
they began to scoff and sneer at the
drunkard who bad cast a temperance
vote. "A pretty temperance voter you
are," said one. "Why, if there was a
bottle of whisky yonder there at the
top of that liberty pole, and if you
could have the whisky by climbing
the pole at the risk of your life, you
know you'd climb." And then the
drunkard stralghtcocd himself up as
best he might and answered them.
"Know It!" be said, with trembling,
painful emphasis: "Know it! Oh, yes,
I know it And I know another thing,
gentlemen If the whisky wasn't there
I wouldn't climb."
TRIED AND CONVICTED.
It is one of the most cheering signs
of the times that 'the cause of tem
perance Is steadily gaining champions
In the United States congress. This
from Representative Clyde Kelly of
Pennsylvania:
"The American saloon has already
been tried and convicted in one-half
tho territory of the United States,
and in the remaining territory where
it atill waves the Stars and Stripes
It will soon be seeing the stars and
wearing the stripes. Facing the facts
and knowing the meaning of the strug
gle, the liquor interests are forming
a battle line of gigantic strenjth. We
accept its mighty challenge, for we
know that with this giant wrong over
thrown many others which have
marred and scarred humanity for gen
erations will go crashing down ln one
great heap of wreck and rubbish. And
crediting that, we do not ask how
many the enemies are, we only SBk
where the enemies are."
NO FINANCIAL PANIC.

HER LITTLE LECTURE.
A young man, ln company with sev
eral other gentlemen, called upon a
young lady. Her father was present
to assist ln entertaining the guests,
and offered wine, but the young lady
asked, "Did you call upon me or upon
papa?"
Gallantry,lf nothing else, compelled
them to answer, "We called on you."
"Then you will please not drink
wine. have lemonade for my vis
itors." The wme glasses were set
down, with their contents untasted.
After leaving the house one of the
party exclaimed, "That was the most
effectual temperance lecture I ever
heard."
POLICEMEN AGAINST SALOONS.
"How many of you would like to
see all the saloons closed?" asked
Catch-My Pal Patterson of 200 po
licemen who had gathered at the
mounted police headquarters In Chi
cago to hear him speak. Atl but about
twenty-five men stood up.
Capt. Charles Healey, who Intro
duced Mr. Patterson, took occasion to
say that no man who drank could re
main on the mounted police force.

If cross,
give
feverish, constipated,
"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 geta sluggish; stomach
sour.
Look at the tongue, mother! If coat
ed, 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 ailment, give a
teaspoonful of "California Syrup 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, end you have
a well, playful child again. A thor
ough "Inside cleansing" Is ofttlmes all
that Is necessary. It should be the
first treatment given In any sickness.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups
Ask at the store for a BO-cent bottle of
"California Syrup of Figs," which has
full directions for babies, children of
all ages and for grownups plainly
printed on the bottle. Adv.
The 8hot That Missed.
In controversy it is better to be In

United Stntes Doctor Krcbs was press

rldgo, hard with his authorities, and at
last, as the New York Times relates,
came down on him with this: "And
now I will proceed to quote Breckin
ridge against Breckinridge."
Without rising from his seat, Doctor
Breckinridge Instantly retorted, "And
you could not possibly cite an author
ity that would have less weight with
me!"
