RT THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG THURSDAY, MARCH 27, - NEWS AND VIEWS FOR WOMEN READERS FOR 15 YEARS WAS TROUBLED WITH ECZEMA Thers is no other remedy like Bur- dock Blood Bitters that can possibly give such relief to all sufferers from eczema, salt rheum and all other dis- eases of the blood for the reason that this old and well tried remedy goes right to the seat of the trouble and completely and permanently drives these diseases out of the system by cleansing the blood and making it pure and rich. Mr. F. W. H. Schultz, Pembroke, Ont., writes: --*Having been troubled with eczema for fifteen years, during which time I tried everything I could think of, including doctors, but with- out getting anything to do me much I finally decided to take Bur- Blood Bitters, and I was certain- + ly surprised to find that two weeks after I had started to take it I was of my trouble. That was mine months ago. and I have not had & sign of it since. I surely wish to thank you for this wonderful medi- eine and strongly recommend it to anyonc suffering from the same trouble as I had." B.B.B. is manufactured only by The T.

ELLIS He was a perturbed newspaper editor; and he talked for an hour about moral conditions of his eity; which he thinks are a mirror of the state of affairs throughout the land. In this, I believe him to be mistaken. The burden of his thought -- and he is frankly scared -- js that even the best people" are out of hand, lawless, self-indul- gent and living only for the mo- ment's gratification, Over and over again he repeated, "I don't know what is going to become of the country." His Jefemiad was thickly embellished with instances and names, as he showed how the | law, especially with respect to in- toxicants, is openly flouted by the very folk who are under obligation to be its first defenders. "Leading citizens" are one with the jazz- crazed, flask-toting "speed maniacs" of the younger set. My editor friend seemed to take a melancholy | pleasure in rehearsing the most de. pressing local illustrations of his thesis that something is terribly wrong with the times, As I listened to his tale, not un- like many others that I have heard in newspaper cireles in various cit- fes, I tried to find a basic reason for the condition of things portrayed. It is not an adequate explanation to say that people are flouting law simply in a spirit of adventurous deflance, like the boys; who rob an orchard, when there is plenty of free fruit in their own homes. The cause lies deeper. Is it not the lack of the large view of things which is usually an expression of the moral sense? Perhaps "short-sight- edness" is the simplest label for the present slump in spiritual sensi- tiveness. Men and women are act- ing without consideration for the ultimate consequences of their con- duct. They forget the effect upon the whole social order, upon the sanctity of law and upon the fabric { our Sunday School Lessons have reit- | erated, "line upon line, precept upon | precept," men have departed from | the clear commandments of God. In | the light of recent events, who would | exchange an easy conscience and a good life for the wealth or fame of | these men who have, in the outcome, | paid a terrible price for mortal trans- | gression? Thesa are great days to be Sunday | School teachers. The newspapers are | clamorously confirming and illus- | trating the teachings of the Bible, | that sin is a present, handicap and {a source of final failure. When we | "see life clear and see it whole" we | know that "the way of the trans- | gressor is hard; but wisdom's ways {are ways of pieasantness, and all her | paths are peace." There is no fear |of Policeman Law for those who | have not done wrong. A straight | look ahead over life, o¥va review of | py segment of human history, re- |{eals that there is no other substan- 1 success than godliness, artnership that Prevails, My editee friend would be less gloomy, I think, were he ready to follow the suggestion that his duty in the case of his back-slidden city is to make his paper an aggressive champion of law-enforcement, of civ- ic and social righteousness, and of personal virtue. He thinks the people would not stand for this, The truth is, though, as our late Lessons have made clear, that the man who goes up against overwhelming odds in the name of right and of God, not only is sure of ultimate triumph, but also of honor beyond his imagination. What a hopeless minority was Abraham, when he took Jehovah for a partner?

Straight as a bullet to the bull's eyes comes this old, old message from the ancient Scriptures, to ap- ply the teachings of the Book to our troubled times. The message of this Lesson from old Israel's history is that when life is looked at in the large it is a summons to loyalty to the etérnal integrities and to God. If my editor friend's city could make a sincere and searching study of this present Sunday School Les- son, there would be a sudden change in its mind and in its prac- tices, Viewing a Vast Landscape. Nobody is fit to govern himself or his own affairs who has not learn- ed to look beyond himself and his immediate interests. Something of the stimulus of life on a hilltop (And mountain folk have always been the surviving and victorious people of history) comes to one who studies at a single sitting such an absorbing narrative of God's dealings with man as we have in this review of Israel's history, from Abraham to Solomon. Causes and consequences are * visible at one glance. To see the end from the beginning is to understand the rea) meaning of a life. There is no other exhortation quite equal to a compléte example. Throughout all the wide diversity of history that lles between the he- role "coming out" of Abraham from Ur of the Chaldes and the dissipat- ed wisdom of brilliant King Solo- mon, there runs a cord of real un- iy. Many characters appéar on the stage of the centuries that the Sunday Schools have studied for three months, but all speak the same essential lines: "G63 has dealings with man; and man's real success or fallure is de- termined by his relations with God." We cannot go again into detailed studies of these assorted characters with whom we have kept company for a quarter of a year; but we can get a firm hold of the great central truth that the outstanding character in these lessons has been -- God. In every experience of the Israelites the determinative factor was Jehov- eh. Indeed, the Bible {itself was written, not primarily to record the experiences or thoughts of a certain line of people, but to reveal the liv- ing Lord. It is the Godward aspect of the story that counts; just as it is the Godward aspect of the individual lite that is ultimately significant. Lite, like the Bible, begins and ends with God. Not otherwise does it have any meaning. Who Fears the Policeman? Of late, there have been many American men, high in national pol- ities and in national business, who have listened, with quickened beats of the heart, every time there was a ring on the telephone or a knock at the door, lest it be the dreaded exposure. They have scanned each edition of the newspapers in fear of mention of their name in connec- {tion with the paramount scandals. Consciousness: of wrong-doing, or wrong associations, has driven the blade of fear into their souls. What a tragic crashing of high reputations there has been! And all because, as Moses, too, defied proud Pharaoh, after forming a partnership with Je- hovah; and behold how the lowly leader of a slave race has been ex- alted, while Egypt was humbled into the dust. So it was with Caleb and Joshua; with Gideon and Samuel, with David and Solomon. The man who allies himself with God never has any regrets; and his real victory is as sure as the sun in the heavens or as the promise of God in the Bible. A long, large look over the history of Israel reveals the secret of success, which is loyalty to the Lord. We have learned much about hu- man nature in the past Quarter"s Lessons; and more about God. Two Old Testament words of wisdom sum up these teachings. First, "There is a way that seemeth right to a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." And second, "Jehovah is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness."
