IMPORTANT STYLES FEATURED
IN SLEEVES AND IN COLLARS
ON('K again embroidery and fur
lend tlielr rich and luxurious
flavor to the new suits for fall
and winter, and onee again designers
indicate their choice of these decora
tive features. lCmbroldorles have been
developed In ways new to us and fur
collars have taken on added Impor
tance because of their novel and very
becoming shapes. They invite one to
snuggle down Into tlielr soft and cozy
depths and between them and the
equally soft and protecting huts that
droop about the fact*, there Is little
chance for the cold to make headway
against the merry eyes that can laugh
at It.
Kver since a famous I’nrls designer
Introduced sleeves that are so large
anil ho much emphasized by decora
tion that the rest of the garment be
came a mere background for them,
sleeves have become more and more
Jpiportnnt In all outer garments. All
sorts of embroideries find place on
them lieads, silk, and especially the
new braid embroideries. These rich
embellishments Invite the company of

and Inexpensive gift. Such a basket
Is pictured here. The basket part Is

The basket pictured, meant for a

Its lining Is a medium light blue

but Is far. less expensive and much
easier to Insert. The paper is
pasted along the top and bottom of
the basket "fulled” In so that It ap

the paper about an inch wide are
twisted at Intervals of less than an

ribbon shirred Into scallops. This
is also pasted down.
The roses are made of double thick

T Lesson T
(By REV. P. B. i*'ITZWATER, D. D.,
Teacher of English Bible in the Moody
Bible Institute of Chicago.)
1921, Western Newspaper Union.)
LESSON FOR SEPTEMBER 11
PAUL IN ATHENS.
LESSON TEXT—Acts 17:16-34.
GOLDEN TEXT—In him we live, and
move, and have our being.—Acts 17:28.
REFERENCE MATERIAL— Luke 4:16-
30.
PRIMARY TOPIC—PauI Telling the
People about God.
JUNIOR TOPIC—PauI In Athens.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC
—ln a Famous Greek City.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC
—Paul in a Center of learning. Being
Driven from Berea, Paul Fled to Athens.
I. The Idolatry of the Athenians
(v. 1C).
Athens was the intellectual metrop
olis of the world at that time, the
home of the world’s great eloquence
and philosophy. Paul’s spirit was
stirred within him when lie saw the
city wholly given to idolatry.
11. The Parties Concerned (vv. 17-
21).
True to ids usual custom Paul went
Into the Jewish synagogue and entered
into earnest argument with the Jews.
From them he turned to such as were
found in the market place. Here lie
came Into touch with the Epicurean
and Stoic philosophers. The former
were atheistic materialists. They de
nied tlie doctrine of Creation. They
•gave themselves up to sensual in
dulgences since they had no idea of
future judgment. The latter were
pantheists. When they heard the
(preaching of Paul they desired to
know wliat new doctrine lie preached,
so they invited him to the Areopagus
where he might speak to them of his
new doctrine. They inquired as to
what this “babbler” might say. The
word “babbler” means literally “seed
picker.”
111. Paul’s Address on Mars’ Hill
(vv. 23-31).
1. The introduction (vv. 22, 23). He
did not accuse them of “superstition”
as the A. V. would make it, but as in
the Am. R. V. lie introduces his dis
course in a courteous and conciliatory
manner, stating that lie perceived that
they were very religious. Tills he ex
plained by stating that as i»e was view
ing their city he beheld an altar with
nn inscription “To the Unknown God.’,’
This was his point of contact. He
proceeds at once to connect it with
the idea of the living God, implying
that this altar had been erected to
Him. lie was too wise to begin at
once to denounce heathenism and
idolatry.
2. Tlie body of his discourse (vv.
24-31).
(1) A declaration concerning God
(vv. 24, 25). (a) He created the
material universe (v. 24). This was a
direct blow at the philosophy of both
the Epicureans and the Stoics. He did
not attempt to prove the existence of
God; it needs no proof. The Bible
everywhere assumes the existence of
a divine being, (b) His spirituality
and immensity (vv. 24, 25). He is
not served with “men's hands as
though he needed anything,” neither
is He confined by any sort of religious
temple. Being essentially spiritual
He demands heart-service, and being
transcendent above all He is not con
fined to earthly temples, (c) His ac
tive providence (v. 25). He gives ex
istence, bestows needed gifts, and as
sovereign directs all things.
(2) Declaration concerning man (vv.
20-31). (a) His common origin (v. 26).
Tills was a blow at the foolish Athen
ian pride which supposed that they
were superior to all other people. This
proposition he proved from their own
literature (see v. 28). If men are the
offspring of God and bear Tlis like
ness it is utter folly to make images
as tlie senseless idols were, (b) Na
tions have their place by the sov
ereign purpose of God (v. 26). Tlie
position and mission of each nation is
of God’s appointment, (c) Men should
seek God (v. 26). His goodnoss and
grace in supplying all our needs, and
ordering even tlie affairs of the na
tions should move man to see and seek
God, for He Is Indeed very near to
every one; so near that our existence
and movements are all under His con
trol (v. 27). (d) Pressing obligation
to repent (vv. 30, 31). This was his
supreme message. Though God had
formerly passed over idolatry He now
calls to all men to repent. The solemn
reason for such action is the coming
day of judgment, the credential of
which is the resurrection of Jesus
Christ from the dead. Tlie judgment
of God of nn unbelieving world is as
sure as tiiis fact. Men will be judged
on tlie basis of their attitude toward
Jesus Christ.
IV. Result of Paul’s Preaching (vv.
32-34).
1. Some mocked (v. 32).
2. Some procrastinated (v. 32).
3. Some believed (v. 34).
All to God.
You should frequently arouse with
in yourself the desire to give to God
alt the faculties of your soul —that is,
of your mind, to know Him and think
of Him, and of your will, to love Him;
and further seek to consecrate all
your outward senses to Him in all
their actions. —FeneJon.
Christian Unity.
The spirit of Christian unity must
be cultivated between the different
churches before formal union can be
effected.—Rev. Dr. Douglas.
THE TRIALS OF T

Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound

\ Providence, R. L
Ohio woman for three years
could hardly keep about and
do her housework she was so ill.
\ \ Made well by Lydia E. Pink-
V V ham’s Vegetable Compound:
A A Fayette, O. —“For about three years
/\ _ II I was very nervous and had backache,
—x'gQlQCV' —x-~~a«r-aJ sideache, dragging-down pains, could
. ' "~ a no { s i ee p night, and had no appe
tite. At times I could hardly do my housework. I got medicine from the
doctor but it did not help me. I saw Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
advertised in a newspaper and took it with good results, and am now able to
do my housework. I recommend your medicine to my friends and you may<
publish my testimonial.”—Mrs. Chester A. Ball, R. 15, Fayette, Ohio.
An Illinois woman relates her experience:
Bloomington, 111. “ I was never very strong and female trouble kept me
so weak I had no interest in my housework. I had such a backache I could
not cook a meal or sweep a room without raging with pain. Rubbing my
back with alcohol sometimes eased the pain for a few hours, but did not stop
it. I heard of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and six bottles of it
have made me as strong and healthy as any woman ; and I give my thanks to
it for my health.”—Mrs. J.A. McQuitty, 610 W.Walnut St.,Bloomington, 111.
The conditions described by Mrs. Cassen, Mrs. Ball, and Mrs. McQuitty will
appeal to many women who struggle on with their daily tasks in just such con
ditions—in fact, it is said that the tragedy in the livesof some women is almost
beyond belief. Day in and day out they slave in their homes for their families
—and beside the daily routine of housework, often make clothes for them
selves and for their children, or work in their gardens, all the while suffering
from those awful bearing-down pains, backache, headaches, nervousness, the
blues, and troubles which sap the very foundation of life until there comes a
time when nature gives out and an operation seems inevitable. If such
women would only profit by the experience of these three women, and remem
ber that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is the natural restorative
for such conditions it may save them years of suffering and unhappiness.
There is hardly a neighborhood in any town or hamlet in the United States
wherein some.woman does not reside who has been restored to health by this
famous medicine. Therefore ask your neighbor, and you will find in a great
many cases that at some time or other she, too, has been benefited by taking it,
and will recommend it to you. For more than forty years this old-fashioned root
and herb medicine hasbeen restoring suffering women to health and strength.

CAR DRIVING HARD ON FEET
Use of Accelerator Causes “Short
Circuit” of Pedal Nerves or “Motor
Foot," it Is Said.
When car owners return from their
summer vacation many of them re
turn limping. A new summer epi
demic is at large in the ranks of vaca
tionists.
The new ailment has been given the
popular name of “motor foot.” In the
language of surgical chiropody itpis In
dexed and classified under the name
of "metatarsal displacement.”
Continuous motoring is the cause
of the ailment. It is a right foot
trouble caused by the continuous strain
occasioned by long motor trips when
the driver keeps his foot in the strained
position required by the use of car
accelerator.
This position causes a displacement
of the metatnrsai bones which in turn
causes them, in motor language, to
“short” the nerves of that part of the
foot. This In turn is the answer for
the pain that accompanies the dis
tinction of possessing “motor foot.”
“Motor foot” not only makes walk
ing painful, but practically eliminates
golf, tennis or any of the other popu
lar forms of active recreation.
The Folly of Cheating Nature
Many people get the
idea that they can keep
their nerves on edge and
their digestion upset year
after year, and “get away
with it.” They sleep only
half as much as they
should and never get
properly and thoroughly
rested.
If you tire out easily,
if you are getting pale and
anemic, if your food
doesn’t digest as it should,
would it not be well to
stop and consider whether
coffee or tea is having its
effect on you?
The caffeine and thein
found in coffee and tea
are drugs, as any doctor
can tell you. Is it any
wonder thatthe steady use
of these drugs sometimes
causes serious damage?

WHY JOHN WAS NOT SMOKING

All the men at the club have been

In the last week Johnnie lias been
seen strolling around the room with
a dejected, lost appearance and be

Nobody liked to ask him questions and
he didn’t volunteer any explanation, so
It wasn’t explained until Jimmie Van-
Veek overheard him say on the tele
phone :
“No, you have got to stick to your
word now. I swore off if you would,
and goodness knows I want one bad
