Heated Air In Medicine.
Heated nlr Is reported by Pr. C. G.
Cutnston to he of considerable Impor
tance In war medical and surgical
practice. At temperatures of 100 de
grees tn !!00 degrees Fahrenheit It
eases pain, produces an Increased
lili.ml How to the wound and greatly
ulds healing. At such high teuiera
luivs as 700 degrees to 1.-I00 degrees
the air Jet Is pronounced the Ideal
sterilizer. At a pressure of 7 to If)
pounds the heated air may he used
for massage hy simply directing It
upon the wound and In some cases
useful results arc obtained by alter

douche.
"Justice."
Mr. John Galsworthy, who recently
refused a knighthood and remarked
that "literature was Its own reward,"
once told an Interesting story apropos
his great play, "Justice."
A certain business man bad decided
to prosecute a swindler. One night his
wife returned from seeing a perform
ance of "Justice" so disgusted with the
then horrors of the lOnglish penal sys
tem (which the play was Instrumental
In getting Improved) that she persuad
ed her husband not to prosecute the
swindler.
This may hnve been supcr-scntlmcn-tallsin,
but It was a fine tribute to Mr.
Galsworthy's nrt.

Possibilities of Renaissance.
The Arab Is jnn Asiatic, n Semite,
anil Arabia Is probably bis original
homo. Thence, migration Into Iiaby
lonla was easy, states a writer, owing
to the absence of natural obstacles,
such as seas or high mountain
ranges. ' '
As It was n custom of Arable histo
rians to begin with the creation, few
of them ever reached the era In which
they lived and about which they might
have written with some accuracy.
Largely for that reason no distinct rec
ord has come down to us of the high
ly Interesting conquest of northern
Africa as far as the Straits of Her
cules; It Is only after the Arabs ef
fected lodgment In Spain and pushed
as far Into France as Charles Martel
would permit them that anything ap
proaching "history" of them Is to be
had.

l'uoicgraphs have arrived In this country showing troops lieing moved to the front on motorlorries, on light rail
ways and on foot, but perhaps never hefore has a picture come showing troops being moved to the front on barges
via canals, which bring them a short distance from the front. The rest of the Journey Is made on foot. These
liarges are loaded with the happy Tommies, anil they make reasonably fast progress to the front, though of course
not us fast as motorlorries or light railways. The Tommies enjoy this method of travel, as H gives them a good
opportunity to view the prettier sections of France.

Frost Bitten.
Harold Mueller, n young civil engi
neer of Klchmond, whose work carries
him In the country and In association
with a good many farmers, tells this
story: Ills mother told him to be on
the lookout for any bargains the farm-
iidirht offer him. While driving
along the road one day In his car he
noticed a sign on the fence which read,
'Take homo all the pumpkins you
nint free." Mueller thought to him
self, "Here Is a farmer after my own
heart, who Is not n tightwad !" He got
three of the largest pumpkins he could
find and returned home with his find.
He was quite proud of his find, and n
few days later Inquired of bis mother
when he could hope for a nice pump
kin pie. Ills heart sank when ho
learned the pumpkins had fallen to
pieces. The free pumpkins had been
frost bitten. Indianapolis News.

TKXT-K.'lt the Pevll and he will fla
from you. Jamea 4:7.
There are two spiritual kingdom lo
existence, the kingdom of light and
the kingdom of
darkness, and
they are In con
tinued, universal
and deadly an
tagonism. At the
head of one Is
Christ and at the
head of the other
Satan. The prin
cipal field of op
erations of these
opposing king
doms is the hu
man heart.
Satan cannot be
everywhere a t
vnce In his own
person ; but hi
messengers are legion, w hich makes It
practically true of bin: that he Is
ubiquitous, attacking us both by sug
gestions of evil within and solicita
tions to evil without. His agents are
not only demons, but had men and
women, had literature, bad amuse
ments, bad habits, bad examples, and
when we ure resisting these we are re
sisting him.
(1) The best time to resist him Is at
the beginning of the temptation, when
we are at our strongest and the temp
tation at Its weakest point. For exam
ple, have we ever known a drunkard
who became one all at once? Did not
the deceitful habit creep over his fac
ulties hy slow degrees until at last It
controlled him? How many latent pas
sions are there In the human breast
which never would see the light were
It not for the apparently accidental cir
cumstance that first made them known
to us? This suggests the curefulness
with which we should select the hooks
we reud as well us the society In
which we mingle.
(2) The tcmptutlons of Satan will be
felt most powerfully at our weakest
point, and each one of us has that
point which Is a predilection toward
some special sin or error.
Gambling is an example of what is
meant, since there Is In almost every
heart a desire to possess riches, and It
requires only a slight bend in tills cur
rent to turn the youthful mind away
from honest labor and healthful occu
pation. Some wise man has said, "The
way the tide of man's constitution
runs, that wuy the wind of temptation
blows."
(3) The devil often tempts us where
we leust expect It, and where we thlnjc
ourselves leust liable to fall. Abra
ham's name Is a synonym for faith, and
yet he fell through unbelief. When
ever we speak of patience we think of
Job, and yet Job "cursed bis day."
Moses was meek above all the men
which were on the earth, and yet bis
lack of meekness, as exhibited in strik
ing the rock at Kadesh, prevented him
from entering the promised land.
(4) The devil can successfully be re
sisted only in the strength of God. That
wus the way David coped with Goliath
when he said to Saul, "The Lord who
delivered me out of the paw of the lion
and out of the paw of the bear, be will
also deliver me out of the band of
this unclrcumclsed Philistine." He wus
not trusting In bis physical strength,
nor his personal courage, nor his great
skill in the use of the sling. All these
were brought Into active exercise it Is
true, but yet he had learned to lean
upon a power greater than his own and
greater than which he opposed.
This gives slgnlllcancc to the latter
half of the text, "Heslst the devil and
he will Hoc from you." We must do
the resisting, but our victory over him
Is brought about by God. In other
words, the reason the devil will flee
from a man if he resists him is because
he has been overcome once for all by
tho Son of God for all mankind.
O, what hope and encouragement I
In those words, "He will flee from
you. "lseholu I give you power over
nil the power of the enemy, and noth
ing shall by uny means hurt you," said
Jesus to his disciples in Luke 10:19.
What a compass there Is In this decla
ration! The tempted Christian Is In
the wilderness of despair and hears the
roaring of the satanlc lion. He is trav
eling on n lonely road and remember
thut he has an adversary with murdpr
In his heart. He Is In the fires of a
fierce conlllct and the angel of the bot
tomless pit Is stirring up the flumes.
"O, thou God of life and light," he
cries, "Is there no escape? Can I
not free myself of this? Shall my
spiritual life be threatened every mo
ment with spiritual death?" "No," la
the answer of our Almighty God and
eternal savior, "Iteslst the devil and
he will flee from you."
Here Is a clear command and a
precious promise! May he who In his
own person overcame our enemy give
us diligently to obey the one because
we faithfully believe the other.
That Which We Do Not See.
That which can bo commonly seen
and handled and coucelvcd is Inferior
to the ryes by which It is taken In,
and the hands by which It is touched,
and faculties by which It Is discovered;
but that which Is Intlnite is known only
to Itself. This It Is which gives some
notion of God, who Is yet beyond all
our conceptions our very incapacity '
of fully grasping him affords us the
idea, of what ho really Is. Ho Is pre
sented to our minds In bis transcend
ent greatness, us at once known and
unknown. And this is the crowning
guilt of men, that they will not rcc
ognisu) one, ot whom they ciumot pos
sibly be Ignorant. Tcrtulllan.
Toward he Sunset.
"It is not far to the sunset," an old
saint used to say cheerily when the
day was hard. The most trying day
reaches Its end at lust. It Is true
of life's day. Whatever trials or hard
ships como Into It It canuot last long;
It Is only a little time to the sunset,
