PRIMARY TOPIC—The Story of a Sliip

JUNIOR TOPIC Paul In a Shipwreck.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC
I -Storm and Shipwreck.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC
Paul’s Power Over Men.
I. A Stormy Voyage (vv. 1-20).
1. The ship. A ship of Alexandria
sailing from Myra to Italy.
2. The company. Two of Paul’s
friends, Aristarchus and Luke, ure
permitted to go with him. Besides
these three there were 273 In the ship
(V. 7).
3. The storm. The ship made little
headway on account of unfavorable
winds. Paul advised that they winter
in Fair Havens (vv. !»-12), but bis ad
vice was unheeded. The gentle south
wind deceived them, so they loosed *
from Crete, only to he soon overtaken
by tiie tempestuous wind, called Eu
roclydon. They did everything pos
sible to save the ship. They took up
the boat which was towed behind;
they bound great cables around the
ship to strengthen it for the storm;
they lightened the ship by bringing
dow n trom the masts and rigging ev
erything that was superfluous; and
Anally, the cargo and tackling of the
ship Itself were thrown overboard. All
this seemed to he of no avail, so that
all hope of being saved was removed.
It seemed that wicked men and ma
terial forces were combined to pre
vent the great apostle from reaching
Home. However, this is only appar
ent, for these very experiences were
overruled by God to bring good cheer
and salvation to many on the way.
We should remember that tempestu
ous winds, as well us the soft breezes,
await God’s faithful ones. The pres
ence of storms does not prove that we
are going the wrong way.
11. Paul's Serene Faith (vv. 21-20).
To a man who did not know God,
the failure of the sun and stars to !
shine for many days, the fading of all |
hope, was natural; but to the man of j
faith, hope still burns brightly. God
Is Just as near to Ills own In the midst
of a stormy sea as in their quiet homes.
Note Paul’s behavior:
1. His rebuke for their failure to
heed his udvice at Fair Havens (v.
21) This was not a mere taunt, but
a reference to the wisdom of his for
mer advice urging them to give him
a more respectable hearing.
2. Bids them be of good cheer (v.
22) He Inspired them with hope.
8. He promises them safety (v. 22)'.
Though the ship would go to pieces,
every man’s life would lie saved.
4. The source of his information
(vv. 23, 24). The angel of God had
revealed It unto him.
3. The reason of Paul’s calm faith
(v. 23). “Whose I am and whom I
serve.”
111. The Ship’s Crew All Safe on
Land (vv. 27-44).
This was exactly as the Lord had
said. We can rest assured that all
God has spoken shall come to pass,
even though there be a broken ship,
brutal soldiers and a perfidious crew.
Aside from the fulfillment of God’s
promise, the most important part of
this section is the splendid sanity
which characterizes Paul’s action on
the way. Two things especially mark
his sanctified common sense.
1. Ills vigilance had detected that
the sailors had planned to escape. He
knew how much they would be need
ed presently, and at once took steps
to prevent their escape. He went
straight to the man in charge and said,
"Except these abide in the ship, ye
cannot be saved.” He practiced the
truth that genuine reliance upon God
is the all-powerful Incentive to human
action. God’s decrees always include
the means for their accomplishment.
2. He knew that the famishing con
dition of the people was not the most
favorable for the physical struggle
which was soon to be undergone by
them when they must struggle through
the water to the shore. So he gets
them to take a substantial breakfast.
He had the good sense to look after
that which was necessary. It was no
time to talk to these men about their
souls, for their bodies needed the main
| attention. Ills prayer ffr that meal
had more effect ui>on the people than
Ills preaching would have had. Let
us learn from this the divine method
of administration, namely, God over
ruling while man trusts Him and acts.
A vigorous faith manifests Itself in
reasonable action.

Stories of
Great Scouts
By ELMO SCOTT WATSON
((£), 1921, Western Newspaper Union.)
HOW “LIVER-EATIN’ ” JOHNSON
GOT HIS NAME
Among the scouts who were with
Gen. Nelson A. Miles, when that of
ficer inflicted his crushing defeat up
on the Sioux chief, Crazy Horse, at J
the battle of Wolf Mountain, Mont., .
in 1877 was one bearing the strange
name of “Liver-Batin’ ” Johnson.
Johnson was a powerful Norwegian,
weighing more than 300 pounds and
standing six feet, three inches in his
moccasin-clad feet. He had a great
shock of golden hair of which he was
very proud —so much so, that he 1
refused to wear a hat, and when he
went into battle with this golden
mane in the wind, he looked like an
ancient Norse viking.
Johnson had won his name in a
gruesome way. Two stories about this
are told, differing slightly in detail, ]
hut agreeing in the main facts. One j
tells how a party of Indians had
raided a trading post on the Mussel
shell Jtiver, hut were driven off with
heavy loss. It is said that Johnson,
In a spirit of devilish bravado, cut :
.out the livers of several of the dead !
warriors and actually ate them.
The other story seeks to justify i
Johnson’s act. A Cheyenne chief hud
raided and burned Johnson’s camp
while he was away on a trapping ex
pedition. When lie returned and saw
Hie ruins, lie swore that lie would
kill tlie Cheyenne and eat his liver, i
Later he made good his threat. Either
account may he correct, so far as j
details are concerned. At any rate, j
he was ever afterward known as
“Liver Batin’” Johnson.
Johnson’s inseparable companion j
was “X” Beidler of Montana vigilante j
fame. Beidler disapproved of John- j
son's lack of headgear and called him j
a “yaller-headed Injun,” because, as
he said, “every decent white man
wears some sort o’ coverin’ for his j
scalp.” But Johnson was Ann in his j
convictions, and in the fight with
Crazy Horse’s Sioux he justified him- i
self —to his own satisfaction, at least.
As Beidler and Johnson charged up i
the snow-clad slopes of Wolf moun- j
tain that morning against entrenched |
Indians, a bullet cut a furrow through |
Liver-Batin’s liair, “like a pair of red
| hot sheep shears,” as he said.
I “Now you see!” he exclaimed to -
| his “pardner.” “If I’d had a hat on,
it’d bin plumb ruined!”
Little is known of Johnson’s later
history. He was a scout at Fort Cus
ter 1881, when the young chief Sword
Bearer tried to stir up the Crows
against the whites anil scouted for |
the troops during that brief war.
After tliut he seems to drop out of
history.
“X” BEIDLER, WHO SEN 1 HIS
• WIFE TO “ROME”
One day In 1869, when the Nile, j
one of the old-time wood-burning Mis- I
iourl steamers, stopped near the
mouth of Musselshell river in Mon
tana to take on wood, two “wood
hawks” came aboard. “Woodhawks”
were men who cut firewood and
corded it up on the banks of the river
to sell to the steamboats. These two
men were famous frontier characters,
“X" Beidler and “Llver-Eatin” John
son.
Among Hie passengers on the Nile
was a party of eastern tourists,
among them several women who were j
enjoying for the first time the thrills
of being in the wildest “Wild West.”
They were especially delighted at the !
appearance of Beidler and Johnson j
and at once began asking questions j
of these “picturesque characters,” as
they called them. The woodhawks j
were not especially pleased to be ;
treated like a pair of Indians, but j
said nothing about it. Finally one of
the women inquired: “Mr. Beidler. j
are you married?"
“Yes,” replied "X.”
“Oh, I would never have guessed
it. Is — is your wife,aalat — a white j
woman?”
“Indian,” grunted Beidler.
“How delightful! A native of these j
great plains! Where is she now?”
“Oh, I've sent her to Rome,” said
the woodlmwk.
"To Rome? To he educated? How
romantic! Do you mean Rome, Italy?”
“No,” answered “X," with a grim
smile. “To roam on the prairie!"
The woman stopped asking ques
tions.
Beidler served as a scout with Gen
eral Miles In the Sioux war of IS7O,
hut he was better known as a vigilante
leader in the early Montana mining
camp. John X. Beidler was his real
name, but he was called "X" Beidler
because he always signed his warn
ings to western "bad men” with the
single mysterious letter “X.” One
such warning was usually enough to
make the bad njan leave camp.
Later “X" was sheriff of Lewis
and Clark county. He once invited
:he governor of Montana and other
state officials to visit his jail and in
spect a new steel cage of which he
was very proud. The officials came
and Beidler took them into the cage.
“Now. dern ye!" he said to his
prisoners. “Ye’ve been edgin' off late
ly when I was tellin’ my stories of the
old days an’ not listenin' to 'em. Now,
I reckon you’ll listen.”
He kept them there three hours and
told them every story he knew I

In order to do your best work, you must be
healthy. You must sleep soundly at night, your
nerves must be strong, steady and under perfect
control.
If you are accustomed to drinking tea or
coffee with your meals or between meals, you
may be loading yourself with a very great handi

I beyond what is natural for you.
For tea and coffee contain thein and caffeine.
These are drugs as any doctor can tell you.
They are known to irritate the nervous system
by their action and to cause restlessness and
insomnia, which prevent the proper recuperation |
of the vital forces. ||
If you want to be at your best, capable of
doing the very best work that lies in you, why
not stop drinking tea and coffee? Drink Postum,
the rich, satisfying beverage made from scienti
fically roasted cereals.
Postum contains absolutely no drugs of
any kind, but in flavor tastes much like rich
coffee. It helps nerve and brain structure by |
letting you get sound restful sleep.
