BRIEF SUMMARY.
THE ASCENDING LORD—LESSON for APRIL 2
Text of the Lesson, Acts i: 1-12.
Golden Text.— And it came to pass, while He
blessed them, Ho wan parted from them and carried
up into heaven.—Luke xxlv : 61.
Time and Occasion. —The lesson
forms a connecting link between the
Gospels and Acts. The Gospels con
clude, naturally, with Christ’s resur
rection, and the Acts begin, naturally,
with His ascension. The former tells
of His acts on earth when living here,
in founding His kingdom; the latter
discloses His acts when in heaven,
through the agency of His apostles, in
establishing Jlis kingdom on earth.
The writer of Acts was Luke, the be
loved physician, (see Col. iv : 14,) who
also wrolo the third Gospel (compare
Luke i: 3, with Acts i: 1.) He was the
friend, counsellor and companion of
Paul, and wrote his account, probably,
between GO and 65 A. D. at Koine. He
begins, af.er alluding to his Gospel by
referring to an interview between Jesus
and His disciples, which was ono only
of many unmistakable proofs of his
resurrection. Those proofs, which fitted
the upostles to bo witnesses of His res
urrection, were seeing, hearing, hand
ling, eating with, walking with and
keeping company with Him —as posi
tive proofs as was possible for them to
have of His resurrection.
lie then reminds) them of the gift of
the Holy Spirit, which the Father had
promised, of which they had frequently
heard Him apeak. (See Joel ii: 28-29;
John xiv : 10,26; xv: 20, etc.) For
that gift He commands them to wait in
Jerusalem, promising that they shall
ho baptized in the Holy Spirit. He
assured them, in reply to their inquiry
if He intended to restore the temporal
kingdom tejlsrael then, that is, free them
from Roman power, and make them
once more an independent nation, that
it was not for them to know the times
and seasons which God, in His sov
ereign power, had appointed ; hut, said
He, for the great task of witnessing
for Me, as you must throughout the
world, you shall be adequately endowed,
when the Holy Ghost (old English word
for Spirit) comes upon you. While thus
speaking Ho was taken up, vanished
heavenward, hid by a cloud. This oc
curred forty days after the resurrection.
As they stand gating, two angels in
human form, assure them that Jesus
should return in the same way. This
lesson is simply an introduction to our
studies in Acts. Its main aim is to de
clare the resurrection and ascension of
Jesus, preparatory to sending the Holy
Spirit to act in His place, in carrying
on the Gospel-work on earth. It de
clares the great commission received
by the apostles to act in His name and
for His cause, assisted by the Holy
Spirit.

Rev. Dr. Randolph, Secretary of
the Baptist Sunday-school Union of
Philadelphia, at the recent Sunday
school Congress held at Plainfield, N.
J., gave the following succinct account
of the advantages derived from the In
ternational Lessons:
“ First: It puts within the reach of
teachers and scholars bettor helps than
ever before.
“ Second: It enables the teachers to
help each other.
“Third: It enables the heads of
families to keep a particular line of
Bible truth before the household.
11 Fourth : Gives to the pastor an op
portunity to render the school the most
important anu direct assistance.
“ Fifth: Enables the scholars to
continue the study when unavoidably
detained from school.
“ Sixth : Greatly assists the superin
tendent in the management of the
school, supplying place of absent teach
ers, etc.
In the country at large:
“ First: Sunday-school workers be
come mutual helpers.
“ Second: The attention of the world
called to Bible truth.
“ Third : Use of secular as well as
religious press in teaching the truth.
(The Providence Press, St. Louis Dem
ocrat, two Chicago daily papers, and
many others, publish notes on the Les
sons weekly.)
“ Fourth : Promotes fraternal feeling
between denominations and sections of
the country. To the world: The in
spiration of a multitude of people all
over the world using the same lesson.
(The International Lessons are now
used in most of the nations of Europe,
China, Burmah, Northern India, Japan,
Fejee and Sandwich Islands, Siam, and
among the Cnoctaw Indians.) Helps
to promote unity of Christian faith.”

MACON SCNDAY-SHCOOL NEWS.
The First Baptist Sunday-school, of
Macon, not long since voted unani
mously to sustain a scholar in Mrs. M.
F. Crawford’s school in China, the
amount required being about forty dol
lars. We also voted five dollars per
month towards the support of the State
Sunday-school Superintendent and
Evangelist. Thus have we promised
one hundred dollars; hut we mean to
do more than that. The Home Board
will not be neglected by us. Our
method of tolled ing money is to en
courage the scholars to give by thus
setting worthy objects before them.
We then collect, in special envelopes,
each Sabbath, what the classes bring,
and keep a record of it, and report it
regularly. In this manner we obtain
five or six dollars every Sabbath. In
the last four months our class collec
tions have amounted to eighty dollars.
Our school now numbers nearly three
hundred, with about forty teachers and
seven officers. Our pastor interests
himself in the school, as every pastor
should—talks about it privately, and
prays for it in public, and lectures on
the lessons every Wednesday night.
Let each Baptist Sunday-school in
Georgia thus systematically and per
sistently collect its funds, and, in the
aggregate, a largo sum will he raised
for Missions and for our State Sunday
school work. S. Boykin,
Secretary.

Some of the lliflidillles Sa It bat li-school Teachers
Meet with In their Labors.
1. The best plan of preparing the
lesson and then imparting it to the
children committed to your care, with
all the helps with which we are fur
nished in this day, I think it more dif
ficult to decide upon a good plan, than
when we had fewer helps.
2. One of my greatest difficulties is,
that though I do love this great work
second only to the public ministry,
sometimes I will grow indolent, and do
not take the interest I should in my
work, and, of course, the scholars show
a lack of iuterest if the teacher does.
3. Training the children to give to
the di'“ rent objects of benevolence.
Is it ri t ;lit io offer a reward to the pu
pil who contributes the largest amount
of money during the year? I have
seen the plan tried, and it worked ad
mirably, but still I doubt the propriety
of this plan, when the children of the
rich and poor are taught in the same
school.
4. But my greatest difficulty and the
one which causes me more anxiety than
any of the others" is, the training of
these immortal souls committed to my
care for eternity. To think that they
are to spend an eternity either in
heaven or hell, and that their future
happiness or woe depends in a great
measure upon the impressions made
upon their hearts by my teaching.
Many other difficulties may suggest
themselves to the minds of other teach
ers, but these are the ones that I feel I
have to contend hardest with. Cannot
our State Evangelist help us? as I
know there are others who have these
same difficulties,‘and oblige

Four lit!le mouths agape forever ;
Four little throats which aro never full;
Four little nestlings who dissever
One big worm, by a mighty pull.
Upon a limb— the lazy fellow!—
l’erchcs the father bold and gay,
Frond of his coat of black aud yellow,
Always singing throughout the day.
Close at their side, the watchful mother,
Quietly sober in dress and song,
Chooses her place and asks no other,
Flying aud gleaning all day long.
Four little mouths iu time glow smaller,
Four little throats in time are tilled;
Four little nestlings quite appall her,
Spreading their wings for the sun to gold.
Lazy no longer Bits the father, —
His is the care of the singing eeliool;
He must teach them to fly, and gather
Splendid worms by the nearest pool.
Swinging away oil the shakon branches,
Under the light of the happy sun,
Flopping through (lie avalanches, —
Father Oriole's work is done.
Four little beaks tlieir months embolden,
Four little throats are rouud and strong;
Four little nestlings, fledged and golden,
Graduate in the world of song.
Hardly to ho credited, hut it is nevertheless
true, that a sick horse or a bad-conditiouod cow

Catarrh a Dangerous Disease!
Catarrh is a dargercus difeaft; jet it can be cured by the use of my “ Catarrh Specific.”
Thoufaiidt* suffer without knowing the nature of this alnaoet universal complaint. It is an ul
ceration of the head. Its urinations are hawking, spitting, weak, inflamed eyes, frequent sore
ness of the throat, dry and hiat of the nose, matter running from the head down the throat, often
ringing or deafness in the ears, loss of pmell, memory impaired, dullness and dizziness of the head,
often in its first stage, but more commonly in its advanced stages, with pains in
chest or left side, and under the shoulder blades. Indigestion usually attends Catarrh ; a hack
ing cough and colds are v<ry common, tsi me have all these symptoms; others only a part.
Very little pain attends Catarrh until the liver and lungs are attacked in consequence of the
stream of pollution running from the head into the stomach. It ends in consumption.
The Legitimate Child of Catarrh is Bronchitis.
Bronchitis is the legitimate child of Catarrh. Troches and all palliatives cannot, by any pos
sibility, reach the ulcerated fountain in the head, whence the polluted, testering, corrosive mat
ter issues. Snuff, or dust of ary kind, always aggravates and never cures the Catarrh. For
fifteen years I was seldom without Brown’s Bronchial Troches in my pocket, and also something
to snuff up my nose. All such persons catch cold easily, and have frequently a running at the
nostrils; the breath sometimes reveals to all around the corruption within, wbjle. the patient
has frequently lost all sense of smell. The disease advances cautiously, until pain in the chest,
lungs or bowels, startles him. He hacks and coughs, has dyspepsia, liver complaint, and is
urged by his doctor to take this or that, perhaps even Ccd Liver Oil is prescribed. Perfectly
ridiculous 1 The foul ulcers in the head cannot he reached by pouring such stuff into the poor
jaded stomach. The patient becomes nervous, the voice is harsh and unnatural, he feels dis
heartened, memory loses her power, judgment her seat, gloomy forebodings hang overhead;
hundreds, yea, thousands in sueh circumstances feel that to die would be a relief, and many do
even cut the thread of life to end their sorrows. There is one other form of Catarrh that I must
just refer to. A hard substance forms in the head, becomes very painful, frequently breaks, and
is blown will) great pain and difficulty from the nose. In other cases it will eat through and
discharge itself by the side of the nose, making a terrible gangrenous sore. One of my patients
was in this condition. She is now getting along finely ; the sore healed up, and the stench and
acrid matter are all gone.
For all afflicted with Catarrh, in all its developments —not even excepting cases where the
bones of the nose are affected —my Catarrh Specific affords a safe, sure and permanent cure.
Clrniitic and Heal—My Motto.
Cleanse and heal is my motto, while at the same time one of the six remedies I send bring ß
the nasty corruption out through the nostrils, and this prevents it from running down the
throat and into the stomach. By thus keeping the ulcers clear of matter, and by applying the
proper medicine, they soon heal, and heal permanently. Also for wak nerves, chronic head
ache and neuralgia my Specific is invaluable.
I Thousandsare dying in early life with consumption who can look back a few years —perhaps
only months—when it was only Catarrh. Neglected when a cure is possible, very soon it will
transform the features of health and youth into the dark, pallid appearance, while the hacking
cough, the excess of blood gushing from the lung, or night sweats, all significantly proclaim it
is too late; and thus a neglected Catarrh endH in the consumptive’s grave.
Kcud and Reflect,
This certifies that the undersigned are acquainted with Kev. T. B. Childs, and believe him
to he reliable and truthful, and that his mode of treating Catarrh is scientific, and effectual in
breaking up and curing it; and indeed it seems to be the only nu de likely to effect a complete
cure. J. If. GREEN. MD, Troy, O,
JAMES M. HOLE, M D., Salem, O.
fl©?’Either of the above named physicians can be consulted by letter or otherwise.
Be Caution*.
Eive years ago, when I first announced to the work 1 that “ Catarrh could be cur< and,” it was the
only announcement of the kind then to be found. All, or nearly all, the physicians in the land
said it cculd not be eurrd. A lew snuffs could he bad at drug stores, labeled “Catarrh Snuff.”
Now what ? More than twenty who had advertised I heir “bitters” and .“tonics,” and nostrums of
all sorts, and claimed for them almost miraculous power to cure a long catalogue of diseases, slip
into that catalogue “Catarrh.” Is not this an after-thought ? Or have they really changed their
medicine to soil the development of Nasal Catarrh, which has but recently become prevalent?
Be not deceived 1
Special Remark*.
This Specific is regarded by the best of judges as being the most complete system for the
treatment of Nasal Catarrh ever devised. Indeed, there does not appear to be anything lack
ing in its pel feet adaptation to the horrid disease, in all of its loathsome, painful and danger
ous developments It ia really two systems harmoniously combined ; for in addition to the
regular treatment for Catarrh in the nasal passages, it includes a fine system for inhaling warm,
medicated vapor, and for passing it all along the air pipes, and even along the eustachian tubes,
without pain or difficulty.
Read this I'urcfiiliy.
If your case ia a had one, affecting the thioat and bronchial tubes, producing tickling, cough
ing, and an almost constant ~-fibrt to clear the passages, withtoueh, vile phlegm in the glottis
on getting up in the mornijic, jvl'icfcJs herd to eject, asd other plain symptoms that the disease
is stealing into the lungs, and ought to he attended to promptly and thoroughly, then I advise
you to get also my treatment for the bronchial tubes and lungs, which acts very finely in con
nection with my Catarrh Specific.
No One Rcdlcinc
Can by any possibility cure Catarrh when it spreads, as above described, through the nasal pas
sages, throat, and bronchial p>ip>cp. Here lies the secret of the unparalleled successof my treat
ment. Some of the six excellent Catarrh medicines which I send, or all combined, are just
sure to follow it into all ot its hiding-places, search it out and destroy it, no matter where lo
cated. If it has taken root where the medicated water cannot reach it, then the medicated
vapior surely will.
The following are taken from thousands of testimonials in my possession :
To all Whom It Ray Concern.
Prompted by n sense of duty, and in justice to a worthy Christian brother, I am led to
make the following statements'in reference to my brother, T. P. Childs, and the noble work
in which he is now engaged, being laid aside from the ministry by spinal and nervous dif
ficulties. Yet it seems the Lord has a great work for him to do.
Oncoming to this place last spring,and becoming intimately acquainted with him, and
having free access to his account-books and a very large correspi ndei ce, and knowing
personally some of the very eminent physicians who declare his mode and manner of treat
ment to be the most complete they ever examined, and the medicines he uses are the very
ones adapted to the complaint he treats, I take pleasure in saying that his “ Catarrh Spe
cific,” including, as it does, a grand arrangement for filling all the air passages of the head,
bronchial pipes and lungs, with a splendid meditated inhalation, so far from being a little
catch-penny affair, is really a most thoroughly arranged system, prepared with great care
and expense, and is withal furnished at the lowest possible figures. His certificates and tes
timonials are numerous aud convincing.
M. H. WORRALL, Pastor Baptist Church, Troy, O.
Judge J. Collet, of Limn, 0., writes: “ You well remember how terribly the catarrh had
taken hold upon me at the time you were at my home, making me offensive to mj self and
to all around, aud witluil suffering day and night. I began to use your excellent remedy
about the 20ih of August. Now lam cure and ; head tree, air passagts all open, and breath
ing natural. I express to you agam what 1 said in a recent letter, ‘ A thousand thanks to
you for so sure a remedy and so very cheap.’ I have laid away the instrument, having no
further occasion to use it. Thus, in about six weeks I have accomplished what you thought
could be gained in front three to six mouths.”
Rev. J. Harvey, of Kingston, Champaign county, 0., writes: “ Dear Brother Childs—Mr.
Wm. Stewart has put into my bauds the money for your catarrh remedy. Send by express
to Urbana. * * * Mr. Cowjil is dead. He died of consumption. Your remedy gave
him great relief front suffering, and he requested me specially to recommend it to all who
are suffering with catarrh.

Dear Bro : —I take this opportunity to write to you in reterence to the condition of my
wife, and 1 am happy to inform you that the Specific has acted like a charm in her case.
The discharges are stopped, the vile odor all gone, the terrible gangrenous external sores
all healed, and her general health improved tveiy way. We are all grateful to our Heav
enly Father that we sent for your Specific.
I am truly your brother, DAVID DAYIS.
A Case of Catarrhal Consumption Cured.
Brother 1. P. Childs. —Dear Friend : —One year ago to day I began to use your Catarrh
Specific. I had been confined to my room seven weeks. I was given up by my trieudssoon
to fill a consumptive’s grave. Had a distressing cough and smothering, so that I could not
lie down without the greatest distress in my lungs. I had lost all sense of smell and hear
ing, and my head was one mass of misery. My friends aided me in the use of your treat
ment, which I commenced w ith but faint hope, as I had been under the care of good doctors
for nine winters, all of whom said I had the consumption. But I began to amend imme
diately. The vile phlegm ceased to accumulate, and the inlialirg halm soon relieved my
and I passed the winter quite comfortably, and have been improving all summer,
and ant now in good h< alth. No cougu, no stoppages of the air passages, no soreness of
the lungs. Ido not take cold easily at all. I thank the Lord that 1 ever ordered your
medicine, and shall ever pray for your success.
Truly yonr friend, RACHEL STEWART,

Home Testimony of A Wealthy Farmer,
Rev. T. F. Childs-- Ecar Bro: l'si ffeidfor years with Nasal Catanh, and tried many things to
little or no profit, hut steadily grew worse, until my throat and bronchial tubes had become seri

ago, I confess I bad but little hope of finding any relief. But lam happy to state that in three or
four days time my s< uses of smelling and tasting were restored, the foul discharges steadily decreas
ed, and general health rapidy improved, and now I regard myself thoroughly cured. I never spent
money for medicine with like satisfactory results. I can most cheerfully recommend your treat

Bev. T. P. Childs —Dear Sir: Being troubled with that loathsome disease, Catarrh, over 30 years i
my head, throat and lungs were very bad. Indeed, I was a great sufferer. I received your box of 1
medicine and instrrunent May sth, 1871, and commenced its use immediately, and in three months
my catairh was entirely cured, and my health is now good. I can cheerfully recommend vour Ca
tarrh treatment to all who are afflicted with that dreadful disease. I might have written long
before this, hut I thought I would wait and see if it came back during the winter. It is now over
six months, and not a vestige of it has appeared, and our winter has been severe. I owe vou a
great debt of gratitude. Truly your friend, MBS. ASENETH PRATT.
Give a full statement of all your symptoms, and then expect just what your case needs; and also
bear in mind you will get the best nasal instrument ever made, and, withal, information worth
mqre to you each year of your life than the whole now costs. Do not trifle with some cheap thing
which at best can afford but temporary relief, while the roots of the vile disease are left to strike
deeper and deeper. Be in earnest and thorough, or do nothing ! Write at once and say what paper

MISCELLANEOUS.
The Fire on the Hearth I
The open Stove Ventilating Company, No,
107, Fulton street, New York, have conferred
no mean boon upon domestic life by the intro
duction in our homes and places of business of
“ The Fire on the Hearth” stove, which is a
most interesting, valuable and economical com
bination of the open fire and warm air furnaces.
This stove resembles the good and popular
“ Old Franklin,” but is higher and entirely en
closed.
A perfect combination of stove and open fire
has long been a desideratum among manufac
turers ; an invention which would give all the
good features of both these means of heating
rooms, with the abscence of any of the objec
tionable features peculiar to each. This has
been accomplished to perfection in this patent,
and science has thus contributed another im
portant and permanent adjunct to domestic
comfort and convenience, and to the enhance
ment of the public health. All the scientific
and technical journals are unanimous in the
praise of this excellent heating apparatus, and
the voice of those who have proven its merits
give to this their unqualified endorsement.
The prices for “The Fire on the Hearth”
range from Ml, to $45, according to size, inclu
ding nickel plated trimmings.
Send for circulars.
fWe lure just received one —value s4o—hand
some nickel plated, and will award it to any per
