Mrs. C. Anderson, 4104 W. 22nd
St., Chicago, 111., says: "I had kid
ney trouble from childhood and
three years ago a severe spell de
veloped. If I stooped, a terrible pain
took me In the small of tny back,
and for several min
utes I couldn't
straighten. Often at
night the pain In
my back was so bad
I had to prop my
self up with a pil

my back would
break. Watery sacs
formed under my
fin, Anderson
eyes and my feet were so swol
len I had to wear slippers. Sud

In my bead drove me almost fran

hardly enough ambition to move.
Nothing seemed to help me and I
was discouraged until I commenced
taking Doan'B Kidney Pill. They
cured me completely and my health
has been of the best ever since.

Bible Institute, Chicago.)
(Cnpvrlsht 1S17, Wentorn Newppr Union.)
LESSON FOR FEBRUARY 17
JESUS TEACHING FIVE PARABLE8
FOUR KINDS OF GROUND.
LESSON TICXT-Mnrk 4:1-21).
GOLDEN TEXT fako heed therefore
how ye hour. Luke 8:18.
ADDITIONAL MATERIAL FOR
TEACHERS Mntt. 13:1-30; SMS.
PRIMARY TOI'IC-Jcsus telling a story
about towing seed.
PRIMARY MEMORY VEttflE-Bo ye
doers of the word. James 1:22.
Jesus tolls us plainly why he taught
go much by means of parabloa ( Matt.
13:10-13). The truth had to be taught;
lionce the parable, that those to whom
It was riven to know the messages of
the kingdom, those who sought It,
might know and understand, and that
to the others it might be hidden (Mark
4:11, 12). Like all his parables, Jesus
draws his pictures from the common
experiences of life the" Held, the home,
etc. Paul draws his Illustrations chief
ly from the city, the army, the market.
In studying this lesson we must turn
to the parallel account as given by
Luke and Matthew to get the full and
complete picture.
What Is the Reed? Luke says that
Jesus told his disciples that the seed
was the Word of God (Luke 18:11).
Wo get the same thought In verso four
teen of the lesson. A great deal Is be
ing made today of seed selection. Some
wonderful results have been obtained.
How much more Important for those of
lis who deal with Immortal souls that
we select the best seed, I. e., the Word
of (iod.
The second consideration Is tho
sower (v. 4). Notice he went forth not
to "soar," not In It recorded that ho
was "sore" because the people did not
all receive the seed alike. lie did not
have a grouch; he did not enter Into
bis work that he might receive the
adulation of men (Matt. G:2). It is,
however, the "soil" that seems to be
most emphasized In both the direct
teaching and also the explanation of
the parable. There are four kinds of
soil. The milliner by which tho Heed
riiinc into contact with each kind of
foil Is significant. Some fell "by" tho
i waysnle; the patn was well trodden;
the ground was preoccupied; e. g., it
vas used fur oilier purposes than to
yield a harvest; It was hard to be
broken, and hence It was an easy mat
ter for I In.' birds of the air (v. 15) to
eomo and pluck It n way. We need to
remember that If men receive with
meekness the Implanted word, there
will, of course, be no such opportunity
for the evil one. The trouble In this
case was that the Word was not Im
planted. Thus It is that one-fourth of
;he seed Is lost. The result Is a deplor
able me as we see from lleb. 2:1-4.
Is the soil of our life so hard that God
must drive the plowshare clean
through It ere there Is a chance for the
seed to take root? (I's. 12!) :3).
The next fell "on" the rocky ground.
The first Is a picture of the hardened,
and this Is a picture of (he superficial
hearer. For a time they did run well.
They even received the Word with
gladness (v. 10), but they had no sta
bility because they had no root. They
were superficial. There was no chance
for t"ho seed to get n real grip on their
lives. Tho earth yields Its Increase
though we do not understand. So God
will add his 1)5 per cent to our 5 per
cent. The oak tree comes from small
seed. As we plant, let us expect great
response from our feeble efforts, but
we need to expect the times of storm
to follow the seed sowing, and unless
the seed of the kingdom gets a real
grip on our lives there is no chance for
a harvest. In whluh category are we?
In the third place Jesus speaks of
the seed that fell "among" the thorns.
Here Is the worldly soil. It Is not so
liiueli the character of the soil, It Is
the character of that which already oc
cupied the soil ere the sower sowed
the seed. The cares of this world, tho
decellfulness of riches and "other
things" had so entered .In that the
good seed never had a chance In tho
soil of the human heart. It was choked
and yielded no fruit. There was no
real grip of the will, no whole-hearted
surrender. The cares of life that keep
tho housewife, or the business man;
the deceltfulness of riches that snare
men and choke the word which at one
time gave such promise In their lives;
the lusts and other things which tho
evil one ktuiws so well how to use keep
us from the Word, for Satan knows
that by it we are to be saved (Luke
1S:12). Are we Impulsive? ' Do we
make vows soon forgotten, ties that
soon fade away or full beneath tho
temptations for lack of root? May
God blast and turn up the subsoil of
our hearts by strong convictions of sin,
and so occupy the soil that there Is no
opportunity for other things.
We have thus seen three-fourths of
tho seed lost. Of the remaining
fourth, that which fell '"into" (It. V.)
tho good soil, not all yielded the same
return. It nil brought forth (v. 7) ; It
all yielded ; It all spraug up, but not ull
In the Fame rntio. "We ueed to remem
ber at this point that this parablo
plainly teaches us that we who receive
the implanted Word, we who receive
and obey, shall In turn become tho
seed of the kingdom.
There are three distinguishing fea
tures of this last kind of hearers: (1)
They hear the Word. These are tho
ones vr appreciate its value and give
good heOto Its precepts. (2) They ac
cept It e. g. they understand Its teach
ings. They tnke It Into good and hon
est hearts. (3) They hold it fast
(Luko F15 It. V.) ThosO nro the
ones of which martyrs are mado.
Jesus was a great open-air preacher
(vv. 1 2) and like all others ho has
various kinds of hearers the half
hearted hearer the shallow-hearted
hearer. The way to reach the masses
Is to go where Hie masses are and la
going to them we nro not to preach
philosophy or sociology or Shake
speare but In his own words, "sow the
seed which Is the Word of God" (Ljike
8:11).

A phjslcinn was called in one of the
suburban toivns to u boy who was suf
fering from tonsilltls. Tho boy's moth
er was relating the affair to a neigh
bor of more mature years, commending
the doctor for his treatment. The re
sponse of the elderly woman was:
"Well, In old times when a boy had a
sore throat we used to take a strip of
i salt pork and sprinkle It plentifully
with pepper and bind It around the
boy's throat, but at the present price
of salt pork it may be cheaper to have
a doctor."

reason is plain the article did not fiilld

applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that ha real
curative value Almost sells itself, ns like
an endh'PK chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who nro in need of it.
A prominent druggist pays, "Take for
example l)r. Kilmer's Swamp-Hoot, a
preparation- I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every enso it shows excellent re
sults, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy that I know of
has so large a sale."
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of Dr.
Kilmers' Swamp-Hoot is due to the fact
that, so many people claim, it fulfils al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,

TEXT For this cause came I Into tbe
unrlil, that I should bear witness unto th
.ruth.-Jno. 18:37.

tainty. This note

I he testimony of
I'hrlsr. lie came

tho truth. Ho Is

; . .. I . ..1.
7
Ihe face and say,
"Which of you convincelh me of sin."
Among others there are four things
concerning man to which he bears tes
timony. 1. The Worth of Man. The commer
cialism of the day would almost make
us think that man Is to be little thought
of when money Is Involved, but be says.
"What Is a man profited If he shall gain
the whole world and lose his life?" A
tniin Is worth more than the world find
therefore a mini Is worth more than
anything1 In the world. In answer to
Hie question of John the l'.nptlst he
r.'iys: "The poor have the gospel
pi-cached to them." In answer to the
mistake of bis disciples he says: "Suf
fer the little children to come linlo
t:ic" Il' had time not only for the rich
end the powerful, but tbe poor anil the
weak were of Inlinit" value to him. No
other religious teacher ever taiiL-lit
III . tl'.is. To !i!m m::n ''as of sucli
value that he was willing to lay down
Ills life fur one of illi'lll. Kvcll the lost
wore to him of Infinite worth for "The
Son of Man Is come to seek that
which was lost." Lu. 10:10.
2. The Trouble With Man.That
I here Is soiiiethin:: wrong Is seen in
tin universal lulls of Improvement.
Win I l-i wr ill',' Is die question. Against
all t!ie Ideas ailvanecil by nam in an
swer to tills question he says that t lie
lmt:lit" Is sin. In lids nil troubles art'
Included.
(a) He says It Is universal. "If ye
lin n being evil know how to ;r!ve jrood
gifts to your children." l.u. 1 1 :M. Even
the ones who sometimes may be said
to give guild are evil. These were his
own disciples and yet even day were
evil.
(b) He says It Is deep-seated. It Is
not on the out:.!de where the trouble
lies, but "nut of Hie heart of man pro
ceed" the evil lhin;;s. It. is not what Is
seen that Is the trouble with men, but
that Which be litis deep within bis own
heart. As Jeremiah puis It, "The heart
of man Is deceitful above all things and
desperately wicked." Jer. 17:9.
(c) He says It Is beyond repair
There are many who would relieve man
by; doing away with all that alllicts
man on the outside, but he says: "Ye
must be born again," If you would be
free from the trouble. While man Is
of Infinite worth he has an afilictlon
called sin which Is so universal and of
such deep root that relief can only be
found by In mlng u new creation h
being "born ugaln."
3. The Hope for Man. He came U
bring relief and he came to make it
possible for man to be born again.
(u) Kor those In bondage he give?
himself a ransom In such a way that
man may find victory over his own de
ceitful and desperately wicked heart
He cancelled the sin when on the cross
nnd How stands to break the power ol
the sin ho cancelled.
(h) For those who are lost he Is
himself the way. "I am the way, thf
truth and the life." Jno. 11:0. Men
aro continually seeking for that whlcl:
will satisfy their aspirations anl novel
finding It until they find it In Christ
Jesus.
(c) For those dying he Is the remedy.
Sin is a sickness fastening upon 111',
men and fatal In Its operation. All
have sinned nnd come short of thf
glory of fled. Jesus bears witness that
tho only relief Is to be found In him
self. Many expedients are being re
sorted to by which to be freed from
sin, but they all fall until lie Is found.
As It was In the days of the wilder
ness Journey of the people of old, "As
Moses lifted up the serpent In the wil
derness even so must the Son of Man
be lifted up that whosoever believed)
on hliu might not perish hut have ever
lasting life."
, (d) For those dead he Is the life.
'ihe wages of sin Is death and death
in ; come upon nil men for Hint all
hnvrt sinned. Tint his testimony Is, "I
nm the resurrection and the life; ho
that boi'ovoth on me though he were
dead yet i hnll he live."
(c) For oM he Is the great hopo sent
from (!od to meet all of man's need.
4. The Danger of Man. Tho Lord
himself, this true witness, bears testi
mony to the truth that "He that lav
llevelh shall be saved and, he that be
lleveth not shall be damned." These
tire the words of the true witness.
At the court of our reason his enso
Is won ; at the court of our conscience
his case Is won, hut what says our will?
Can we afford to turn from his testi
mony concerning our common trouble,
our hope and our danger?
Stewardship of Knowledge.

very few have it about their knowl

This Is not fiction ; It is plain, serious fact that confronts the housekeepers
In Washington. Servants are the hardest things In this city to find. The call
to the factories und the government has depleted their ranks.
Capital Rapidly Becoming an Educational Center
UNLESS present signs fall, one Important result of the wnr which will be of
lasting duration will be the making of Washington the most Influential
publishing and educational center of the United Slates. This will fulllll one
)t George Washington's dreams of tho ' "
fapltal city named In his honor.
The government printing olllco Is
the.blggest printing plant in the world,
ut since America's entrance Into tho
war tho capacity of that plant has
3cen hugely overtaxed. The govern
ment has been required to let many
printing contracts to private firms, In
(Spite of the fact that tho law pro
hibits such a practice except In ense of
absolute emergency. But tho emer
gency has been absolute, because of
the enormous volume of publishing work Incident to the war which the govern
ment has felt called upon to do. New York nnd Boston have regarded them
selves as the publishing center of the western hemisphere ami of the two New
York has held the lead. Now, however, government publications are being
Issued ut such a tremendous rate that their prestige Is Jeopardized. In addi
tion, many magazines are published here, and It Is understood many more ure to
be published, some moving from other cities. Some two hundred periodical
publications are now being mailed from Washington.
So much scientific work now Is being done at Washington, or at least
