Suffering Will Not Help Your Disease, but Will Weaken Your Nerves. Folks who think It Is better to bear pain than soothe It—are 'wrong. Old-fashioned doctors used to say It was better, because they had nothing with which to ease pain but dangerous, heart-paralyzing drugs. But now, that a safe remedy has been found, Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills. It is wrong to suffer, for nothing can be gained but weakened nerves. A safe rule to remember is: When in pain, take an Antl-Paln Pill. This will Boothe your quivering nerves.

Land of Promise (TO AND FROM) By Rev. C. O’N. Maktindale. ARTICLE XLV. TURKEY [Continued] (30). PALESTINE: To Esh- Sheri’a [“the Watering-Place" or the River Jordan]. Away from this great Salt Sea, after gathering rocks tor memen toes from its wide beaches, we re entered our carriages, and drove in sight of ancient Massada and Beth-Hoghla.i and Gilgal to the heavily fringed banks of the Esh- Sheri’a, Arabic for “the Watering- Place,” or the River Jordan. Of rapid descent and exceeding sinu osity, it is generally known as El- Ghor. “the Descender," in its low er part by the natives. Its course has been aptly described by an English boy on examination as “a river which runs straight down the middle of the map of Palestine, but, if you look at it very closely, it wriggles about!" From its source to its mouth in a direct line is about 137 miles, yet its course is “so tortuous that be low the Sea of Tiberias it is nearly three times its length in a straight line. In the region around its source and along the lakes of Hu- leh and Tiberias, it is extremely picturesque, and the water is clear travel,” having no less than 27 threatening rapids and a great many more of lesser magnitude be tween the Sea of Galilee [or Ti berias] and the Dead Sea. Yet it is the river consecrated evermore “to the two acts most symbolic of religion—the washing by water and the gift of the Spirit." P'or now we are in the region made historic as furnishing the door of entrance for the Israelites into the Land of Promise, near to the place whence the majestic prophet Eli jah was when God took him to heaven in a chariot of fire, and where John the Baptizer minister ed as the Forerunner of Jesus the Messiah to the people of Israel and baptized with water Him who j baptizeth with the Holy Spirit and with fire. Truly we felt the presence of the great Jehova, as “on Jordan’s banks" [but not “stormy” at all] we stood. Here at the tradition al baptizing-placc it was about 90 feet wide, with banks vefy slip pery and waters and persons easi ly muddied, and a current danger ously swift and to be entered cau tiously even where the bank is sloping slightly farther up stream. Here those who prefer to baptize by affusion or sprinkling do so, here those who prefer to baptize by submersion or immersion do so, not pausing to argue the question, but just agreeing among them selves to disagree and argue an other time as to the Scripturalness of the mode of baptism. For on this cruise and in this land far be it from us to wrangle or quarrel; indeed, appeal to God’s Word should never anywhere be in the heat of anger, but with soberness and reason and only to get at the exact truth. Many of our company were good swimmers and easily swam the distance across to the high bluff on the other side, but only to find no landing for foot or hand to rest upon.
