Millions of folks bathe internally now instead of loading their system with drugs. "What's an inside bath?' you say. Well, it is guaranteed to perform miracles if you could believe these hot water enthusiasts. There are vast numbers of men and women who, immediately upon arising in the morning, drink a glass of réal hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in if. This 4i8 a very excellent health measure. It is intended to flush the stomach, liver, kidneys and the thirty feet of intestines ' of the previous day's waste, sour bile and indigestible ma- terial left over in the body which if not: eliminated every day, become food for the, millions of _ bacteria which infest the bowels, the quick result ip poisons and toxins which are then absorbed into the blood, causing headache, bilious attacks, foul breath, bad taste, colds, stomach trouble, kidney misery, sleeplessness, impure blood and all sorts of ail- ments. People who feel good one day and badly the next, but who simply can not get feeling right are urged to obtain a quarter pound' of lime- stone phosphite at the drug store. This will cost very ittle, but is suf- ficient to make anyone a real crank on the subject of internal sanitation. Just as soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and freshening, so limestone phosphate and hot water act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels. It is vast- ly more important to bathe on the in- side than on the outside, because the skin pores: dg not absorb impmrities into the blood, while the bowel pores do. ni, choose from-- Fit positive and shape retaining to the end. I STATESHAN These are the times of widened vis- ion, with the whole world coming daily under review hy ill of us, and the welfare of far-separated parts in- extricably bound uy with one another. It is easier now than it was five years ago to understand this patriot Nehe- miah, who, in comfort and affluence and honor himself, yet wept soul-tears for his people and for the city of his fathers. Go to any Zionist meeting to-day--and there are plenty of them --and the Nehemiah spirit will be found still alive dnd active. With all the woe . that it has wrought upon the earth, this war has also brought many boons, not the least of them being a passion for large patriotism Rich and poor, wise and illiterate, are vying with each other to d& service for the nation in its hour of need. In all time there has never been such a lavish dedication of life to great ends as has'been witnessed during the past three years. A few days ago.l saw a Russian general, who was travelling on the same train as myself, and whom I had mentally ap- praised as a fop and a martinet of the old regime, go weeping into his com- partment upon receipt of the news of the retreat of the Russian army. He would not eat or talk; his patriotism was so real and deep that it mastered all other emotions. $ Petty purposes perish in a passion of patriotism. The Nehemiah spirit is exemplified in every part of the land and of the world. There is something sanctifying about true pa- triotism It lifts men out of their littleness and selfishness, and makes them rejoice to do any sacrifice or ser- vice Personal ambitions avg given up, and food and profits and Tersonal aggrandizement are forgotten. This in part explains the socializing influ- ence of the present war, in Great Britain and elsewhere. Patriotism has lifted life up to a higher plane, even as it made a hero and a states- man out of the courtier Nehemiah. The Torch:Lighted by God. It was a God-lighted flame of pa- triotisny "that burned in Nchemiab's breast. The old Jews, as we see clearly from the Psalms, associated God and country in all their holiest thoughts and noblest aspirations. Ne- hemiah, like the psalmist, loved Jeru- salem above his chief joy. Hearth- fires are altar-fires. It is a mission of religion--and ove who is wander- ing in. far lands wonders how the Church at home is living up to .this imperative duty--to keep Strong and vital the ties that unite love of country with loyalty to God, legiance to land should pulce that liy- ihg spirit of religion which 'made Ne- hemiah a great patrigt. The most popular of modern poefs has breathed this spirit of place loyalty into_his poem about Sussex: "God gives all men ail earth to love, But, since our hearts are small, Ordains for each one spot shall prove Beloved over ail. Each 'to his choice, but I rejoice, The lot has fallen to me In a fair land, a fair land, In Sussex by the sea." No greater peril besets society to- day, with its intensified social" con- science and its passion for humanity, than the so-alled "internationalism," which professes to have no country save all the world. Unthinking .sen- timentalists, who have 'not discerned how the paPrcular is always éssential to make the general effective, decry atriotism as something narrow and ocal and selfish. They cannot see that it is necessary to love the whole thy means of loyalty to a part. The best thing anybody can do for the in- stitution of the home in general, for example, is to make his own home happy and wholesome. The finest service any woman can render the cause of womanhood elsewhere is by living a sweet and beautiful and noble life herseli. And we do most for the cause of democracy in Ching and Russia and even in Germany, when ideals of democragy. in our own be- loved land. There "internationalists," who do not understand what loyalty means, and whe wrought such hurt in Rus- sia, are usually of the same group do not believe in i for example, but in free love; nor in pro- perty rights, but in communism, in which everybody will get and nobody will give or sactifice. In short, sen- timent without sense, like love with- out loyalty, is capable of more harin tha Ne n good, Nehemiah, but a passionste Mot, and God blessed him in it. © { have never really lived.

By William T. Ellis. the Jews have settled in the Holy Land in sufficient numbers to give them control of the situation. It is unthinkable that the Syrians, who have lived on the land for thousands of years. shotild be dispossessed against their will, even to make way for Zionism. There is no Artaxerxes on earth to-day to accomplish by de- cree, as of old, the.great desire of the Jews, which burns in so many myriad breasts. Soul.Photographs on Faces. Sometimes 1 have wished to con duct a woman's column in a great newspaper, for the one and singular purpose of saying over and over again to young women, by all the diversity of forms that I "could command, this fundamental truth, that the soul pho- tographs itself upon the face." There is no cosmetic like beautiful and un- selfish thoughts" As a woman think- eth in her heart ,50 is she on her face. If you are lovely within, God will set His angels to work at painting that loveliness in your eyes and on your lips and cheeks. This is an eternal law. Would that all of us might learn it before it is too late. By that law Nghemiah's spirit showed itself upon Ais features . If you pray hard, your face will show it. If you dre petty and selfish and suspicions and mean, that, toe, will show upon your face, as plainly as an automobile advertisement in a news- paper. Life's dominant desires can- not be hid, If 1 had to have the face of many a millionaire, along with his money, | would prefer to do with- out the moriey. Nehemiah's solici- tude for Jerasalem was apparent to the king upon his- throne. Thereby his prayer was answered. Some of us have never wanted any- thing in the world so greatly as Nehe- miah wanted the restoration of Jeru- salem. Such are to be pitied. They have merely wanted good times, and automobiles and summer trips and the gratification of whims; and so they When we want any great boon earnestly, then we think of it always in prayer fash- ion./ Millions of mothers are think: ing Godward thoughts of their sons today, and sweethearts dream pray- ers of lovers, because of the dangers' of battle and camp. No great soul can refrain from praying in time of lofty desire. All our best aspirations are inextricably bound wp with thoughts of God. As we see sad- faced Nehemiah standing before the Persian monarch, we gre idmonished to let all our trouble be big ones, at a : Souls are matle great by the sive of their cons cerns. + Love of country, solicitude for the welfare of others than self, sor row and work in behaif of the poor, a burning zeal for jystice--these, and their like, are the anxieties that exalt while yet they weigh down. Man Who Prayed in a Hurry. Two great passions flowed togeth- er to make up the solicitude that wrote itself on the face of Nehemiah. a was filial piety. Jerusalem was the city of his fathers and of their graves. Our western world does not ully apprehend the length to which respect for parents goes in the East. erhaps the interchange of ideals which this fluid time is effecting may pus in this respect. The other great desire of Nehemiah was pdiri- otic. © His love for his native land, like t of our own people at the préd#iit time, was an overmastering passion. So possessed was he by these ideals that the king read them on. his face, and inquired the reason fof the unwonted sadness. hat was a critical moment for Ne- hemiah. the special attention . of despots, Men who serve kings are expected to smile. So Nehemiah, we are told, prayed. This was not the long, fine.

It wag an cjaculatory prayer, such as perhaps a teacher of grammar could not parse. It shot straight out of the heart to heaven. As Moody used to say, it went to hea- ven so fast that the devil had no time to interfere with it, Peter prayed the same sort of prayer to Jesus when he was sinking in Galilee; there was no time for ornate petitions then. Zaccheus prayed the same fashion. As if such petitoins are particularly popular with God, because of their clear sincerity, they are quickly an- swered. originate, by prayer. Perhaps that is what the apostle meant by the injunc- tion to be instant in prayer. A Chante To Da Hard Thing. There were courtiers not a" few about the Persian cowft who would have enviéd ;Nehemiah the opportu- nity which came when the king asked him what he desired... They wanted jobs for themselves, and for their wivés' relatives. But sought only a hard thing for himself, and a great boon for his people. He who dre eager to go info the aviation service. He wanted to go to Jeru- salem,. and investigate the plight of the city, and of the remnant who re- mained therein. . That was no small journey, as the British prisoners from Kut el Aniar- ra, which is not far from the anciefit Persian palace, can testify; as can | also. It meant giving wp comfort, and ease, and: the meeting of obsta- clés and enemies, Old Xenophon led the Ten Thousand over part of the same route. Also jit meant a large military escort, and malerial for re- building. Verily, Ip@iemiah, yous asked largely when you did ask. That is the way to go to a king. "Who- ever goes to God for porridge should carry a large bowl," said old John Bunyan. Letters for the journey were asked. It was on this very route covered by Nehemiah that | arrived one evening in the town of Severek, to spend the night. I called on the governge with a letter from the Sublime Potte, and straightway they wanted to throw out of the best room in the inn a guest already established, because of the letter I bore. In the East the recipi- ent of such a letter will sometimes touch it to his head, in token of loy- alty and esteem, ' In the case of Ne- hemiah, the letters did the work, as he set out to Jerusalem. He was aided on the way: and succeeded in his 'mission. His prayer had been answered--by way of his own interest and endeavor.
