I DR. CALDWELL'S
H THREE RULES
Dr Caldwell watched the results of
eoustipation for 47 years, and believed
that no matter how careful people are
of| their health, diet and exercise, con
stipation will occur from time to time.
Of next importance, then, is how to treat
it when it comes. Dr. Caldwell always
was in favor of getting as close to nature
possible, hence his remedy for consti
pation is a mild vegetable compound, ft
can not harm the most delicate system
and is not habit forming.
vTiie Doctor never did approve of dras
tic physics and purges. He did not believe
they were good fcrr human beings to put
into their system. Use Syrup Pepsin for
yourself and members of the family in
constipation, biliousness, sour and crampy
stomach, bad breath, no appetite, head
aches, and to break up fevers and oolds.
Got a bottle today, at any drugstore and
observe these three rules of health: Keep
the head cool, the feet warm, the bowels
open. For a free trial bottle, just write
“Syrup Pepsin,” Dept. 88, Monticello,
Illinois.

* Castoria is a comfort when Baby is
fretful. No sooner taken than the little
one is at ease. If restless, a few drops
soon bring contentmont. No harm done,
for Castoria is a baby remedy, meant
for babies. Perfectly safe to give the
youngest infant; you have the doctors’
word for that! It is a vegetable pro
duct and you could use it every day.
But it’s in an emergency that Castoria
men ns most. Some night when consti
pation must be relieved —or colic pains
—or other suffering. Never be without
it; some mothers keep an extra bottle,
unopened, to make sure there will al
ways be Castoria in the house. It is
effective for older children, too; read
the book that comes with it.

LUCKIER,
BiiSlE SEA HD ST van
Copyright by by ♦ E aw4IB
Doubleduy, Doran & Cos. 1 *lO
r Q Eiouiiis
Up the Danish coast to the Skagerrak
the disguised Steadier sailed; then west
ward across the British mine fields and up
along the coasts of England and Scotland.
A terrific hurricane sprang up, and under
almost full sail Count Luckner and his
companions started to run the British
blockade. They passed through its several
lines without seeing a ship, for all the
blockading vessels had sought shelter in
the lee of the islands. Taking the north
erly course to the Atlantic, the Seeadler
was blown by the gale far toward the
polar zone and could not be handled be
cause of the frozen rigging. But the wind
shifted and on Christmas day they turned
to the south. Then they were stopped
by a British cruiser and two officers
boarded the supposed Norwegian ship'' and
began a searching examination of the crew
and papers. Luckner and his men passed
the test with great success.
CHAPTER lll—Continued
—6—
“There were rumors at home in Nor
way that two cruisers and sixteen
German submarines had put out of
port.”
The search officer’s comrade, who
had been looking around the cabin,
came over to us when he heard all
this.
“I think we had better be going,”
he spoke up suddenly.
“Yes,” replied the other, and they
went on deck.
They made no attempt at question
ing the sailors or investigating the
sailors’ belongings.
“Your papers are all right, captain,”
said the search officer, “but you will
have to wait here for an hour until
you get a signal to proceed.”
“All right, Mister Officer."
One of my boys, who was of a pes
simistic turn of mind, heard this. As
he walked away from my cabin he
said out loud to himself:
“Everything is lost.”
Down below were the members of
my other crew, waiting in the dark.
They were right beneath the floor of
the deck, straining their ears to catch
any word that might give them an
idea how things were going on deck.
Tiiey heard the exclamation, “Every
thing is lost,” and took it for the offi
cial word that we were discovered
and for the command to do what was
to be done in that case. They lit the
fuses of the three bombs that were
to blow op the ship, and waited for
the hatches to be opened to let them
on deck to the boats. The fuses
would burn for fifteen minutes.
The British were in their boat now,
trying to push off. But you can’t hold
a sailing ship in one place like a steam
er. She keeps drifting. And the suc
tion of the Seeadler as she drifted
held their boat so it couldn’t get away.
What was still worse, it kept slipping
aft, and if it got under our stern,
they would have been sure to see our
propeller. A sailship with a propel
ler? Yes, sometimes, but we would
have been done for, as there was noth
ing to that effect in our papers. Seiz
ing a rope, I tossed it overboard to
ward them.
“Take the rope, Mister Officer, take
the rope,” I shouted as though clums
ily trying to help them.
That made them look up, so that the
rope might not fall on heir heads. I
heaved the rope just as they were
sliding around our stern and away.
The officers thanked me, and one of
them, angry with his men for not be
ing able to push the boat off, ex
claimed :
“I have only fool£ on my boat.”
“Yes, maybe you have,” I thought,
“and maybe you are the worst-fooled
one of all!”
My stomach was quite norma! now.
I was so happy that 1 even felt as
though i could digest that quid of
tobacco. The men on deck felt like
cheering and singing, but they had or
ders to go on about their jobs as
though nothing unusual had been go
ing on, until the cruiser was far and
away. They just grinned, but so
broad were the grins that 1 thought
they would split their faces.
My first thought was to bring the
happy news to the boys in the dark
ness down below. 1 went to one of
the secret hatches, which they had
fastened from within.
“Open,” 1 shouted.
There were vague sounds below.
“Open up," 1 called again.
Then 1 heard a muffled voice say:
“Open the flood valves.”
“What’s that?” I yelled. “What’s
the matter? Open the hatch!”
The hatch opened. I saw troubled
faces. I could hear water rushing in
to the ship.
“By Joe,” I shouted, “are you try
ing to sink my boat?”
I could hear men running below to
all parts of the ship. I climbed down
roaring. One of the men spoke up.
“They are cutting the fuses and
closing the flood valves.”
“Fuses, flood valves, by Joe. How’s
that happen, by Joe?”
Then one of the men said: “But
someone called down that all was
lost 1 Afterward you called ’open’ and
we thought you meant open the flood
valves.”
The fuses had been burning for
eight minutes out of their fifteen, and
hundreds of gallons of water were
pouring into the ship.
THE ROCKDALE RECORD. Conyers. Ga., Weil., April 17. 1920
By Joe, I looked for the fellow who
said “All is lost." lie came forward
at once and confessed.
“1 wasn’t calling to the men below.
1 merely said it to myself.”
"Why do you say ‘all is lost,* by
Joe, just when everything is fine?”
“Well, captain, when the English
man said that we would haVfe to wait
for an hour, I thought to myself that
the game was up. It means that he
is keeping us waiting while he sends
a wireless to Copenhagen asking about
the Irma, when there is no Irma."
“By Joe," I said, “that’s right.”
In our excitement, neither 1 nor my
officers had thought about the wire
less. It had not occurred to us to
ask ourselves why we had been or
dered to stand by for a whole hour.
We didn’t even think of Lloyd’s Keg
ister. The search officer might have
gone back to his ship to look up the
Irma in the Register, where there was
no Irma.
For days 1 had been on deck In the
storm and in the ice regions. For the
past half hour I had gone through
worse turmoil even than that. And
now, when everything seemed clear,
the sky looked black again and that
quid of tobacco started getting in its
dirty work. I went to the rail and
hung there on my elbows, staring
through my binoculars at the Avenger
and watching for the flag signal. My
hand shook, and instead of only one
I could see three cruisers in my glass.
I handed it to Leudemann and while
he took a look I leaned there with the
code book in my hand, ready to decode
the signal when it came.
I don’t know how long it was, fifteen
minutes or an hour, but finally three
little flags went up the signal rope.
The Seeadler.
Old imperturable Leudemann steadied
his glass. At last he made out the
signal:
“T-M-B."
I thumbed the book clumsily. It
seemed as though I would never find
T-M-B. But there it was. It meant
“Planet.” Nonsense. Read the sig
nal again.
I was getting weaker and weaker,
whether from the anxiety or from that
quid, I don’t know. This time he
read:
“T-X-B.”
Pages, columns, and then the right
place. . . . Continue voyage.
I felt as though my heart had two
valves instead of one and was pump
ing madly through both. 1 sat down
and breathed heavily. Instead of go
ing about their ordinary tasks, my
men wanted to yell like Indians.
Ilello, what’s this? The Avenger,
with her 15,000 tons driven by 100,000
horse-power engines, was racing
straight at us. Huge streams of smoke
and great flames like torches poured
out of her three funnels as her safety
valves blew out from the over-pressure
of her boilers. Just as she got on
top of ua she swerved off. At her
stern flew a signal. 1 did not need a
code book. I knew that signal by
heart —Happy Voyage. We raised the
signal—thanks—and dipped our Nor
wegian flag three times.
The British had behaved like gentle
men toward us. I think ttie way they
pointed their guns at us when they
came up to us was a hit of a joke.
The hour they made us wait was, I
think, to enable them to make wire
less inquiries about the story we told
of German cruisers and submarines.
The search officer did his work cour
teously and well. No seaman should
try to make another seaman ridic-
Firefly’s Tail Light Diffuses Little Heat
The fireflies, or “lightning bugs,”
which dance in the twilight, carry
torches that burn on the same prin
ciple as a lighted candle. That is to
say, they combine a combustible sub
stance with oxygen and produce light.
The great advantage enjoyed by the
firefly is that his tail light makes so
little heat; it can fairly be called
“cold light.”
The substance consumed to produce
the firefly’s light is luciferin. The
shining of fireflies, and of other an
imals and plants, used to be called
phosphorescence, because it looks like
ulous. We were disguised so well that
he could have suspected nothing. In
his place, I should have been fooled
exactly as lie was. ami so would any
other officer.
•’And new, boys, let’s celebrate
Christmas!"
We dumped our deck load ot lum
ber into tlie sen, and cleared the deck
for a big time. I had a Christmas
tree that I had brought from home.
We set It up. Before the Seeadler
lett port, Fraulein Bertha Krupp had
sent us a huge box full of Christmas
presents, something for every man.
We opened it and found clothing, ci
gars, pipes, cigarettes, cigar holders,
knives, liquor, soft drinks, and mu
sical instruments.
It was the merriest Christmas of
our lives. Singing “Yo-ho” and cheered
up with many good bottles of rum, we
headed south to play our role us buc
caneers.
CHAPTER IV
We Capture the Gladys Royal
and the Lundy Island
“All hands on deck 1”
Aloft my boys flew, into the rigging
and up the ratlines like monkeys.
“Loose the fore-taups’l 1” boomed up
from the quarter deck.
“All gone, the fore-tausp’l,” they
sang out.
“Loose the ga’nts’ls and stays’ls!”
The sails were sheeted home and
were filling out. We didn’t lose much
time in getting her away. Lying over
on her beam ends and running before
the wind, we set our course for Ma
deira.
We knew that Just off Gibraltar
would be one of our best hunting
grounds, so we cleared away the re
mains of our Norwegian camouflage,
and after a few days we were as
spick aud clean and orderly as a Ger
man auxiliary cruiser should be. We
were the Irma no longer, hut the See
adler now; although 1 felt a pang of
regret at letting go the name that had
served us so well and brought us luck.
There was constant labor on the
motor. The lubricating oil we had
was of poor quality. Oil, like many
other tilings, had become scarce in
Germany. Our enterprise had the en
thusiastic support of only a few of the
officials at the admiralty. The others
thought it certainly foredoomed to fail
ure, and did not want to risk too much
on it. Among these were the heads
of the department that supplied us
with oil. A sailing vessel under the
pressure of sail nearly always lists to
one side. The work of the motor was
hampered by a leaning position. We
sailed most of the time throughout our
cruise with the motor dismantled and
under repairs.
We had only two guns, and only one
at a time could be brought into action
"agSunst an"enemy.' o>ur orders were
to attack sailing ships only. Wind
jammer against steamship was con
sidered a ridiculous idea. We would
not need great broadsides of cannon in
capturing sailing vessels. We tried
to make up for our lack of gun power
by skill and precision in handling the
guns we had. Our gun crew worked
incessantly at drill and target prac
tice, and schooled themselves to such
quickness and accuracy of (ire that
the power of our armament, in effect,
was doubled.
Our lookout posts were excellent.
We had a crow’s nest with a comfort
able seat high up ou the mast. Only
a man at ease watches well. A sec
ond lookout was on the foremast,
where a petty officer was perched. I
offered ten pounds sterling and a bot
tle of champagne to whoever should
report a ship first. A jealous rivalry
grew up between the lookouts. In
each raged a tremendous thirst for
that bottle of champagne. All day
tong eager eyes swept the horizon.
On January 9, off Gibraltar, the
shout rang out:
“Ship ahoy.”
On our larboard side was a large
steamer heading toward us. Flying
our Norwegian colors, we turned to
meet her. She flew no flag and car
ried no name. The British were the
only people who sent their boats out
without names. She looked of Brit
ish build, too. Our orders were not
to tackle steamers. Well, you can
promise a lot. We raised the signal:
“Chronometer time, please.”
A sailing ship long away from port
rarely has the correct time. Our re
quest was reasonable enough. The
steamer signaled that she understood
us, and came to the Windward so that
we could heave to. 1 wore my great
coat to conceal my uniform. Those of
the crew that had rifles bid themselves
behind the railings.
The steamer came near, ready to
give the sleepy old Norwegian the
time.
“Shall we tackle him?” I asked one
of \my sailors who was crouched next
to me peering through a loophole.
“Sure, let’s take him. He’s an Eng
lishman.”

But it is not caused by phosphorus.

By itself it does not glow, hut a sec

this makes the luminescence.

I. God’s Message of Comfort (vv.
1. 2).
1. it was addressed to Isaiah and his
successors in office (v. 1).
He, as God’s spokesman, was to
make known the very heart of God to
the people who were in great need ol
comfort. They were in a strange
land, in captivity because of their
sins. In spite of their apostasy from
God —the breaking of their covenant
with Him —His favor was about to re
turn.
2. The mutual relation of God and
His people (v. 1).
This is expressed in the phrases
“my people” and “your God.” The
believer belongs to God, and God be
longs to him. How blessed it is to
he thus related to Him. Observe,
this was said concerning a people
who had sinned and backslidden.
3. Pardon received (v. 2).
In spite of their gross iniquity, tlieii
pardon was declared. The receiving
of double at the Lord's hands does
i not mean that there had been undue
infliction of punishment, but that the
divine pardon exceeded the guilt The
period of the captivity was at an end
Their blessing was not through tlieii
1 own merit, but was to he realized
j through the sin offering of Jehovah
11. The Preparation Required (vv
| 3-5).
In order to secure salvalior
which was to be theirs through the
vicarious offering of Jehovah, it was
necessary that certain preparatior
should be made. Observe:
1. The voice in the wilderness (v. 3)
This voice was that of John the
Baptist, and actually was heard ai
the time of the coming of Jesus Christ
(Matt. 3:1-3).
2. Prepare ye the way of the Lord
(v.3). It was the custom on state oc
casions for someone to go in advance
of thq king or ruler and make prepa
ration for his coming. This prepara
tion consisted of the actual depres
sion of hills, the elevation of valleyi
j and the straightening of erookec
J places, so that the monarch could
move forward with ease and facility
In its moral bearing, the meaning it
that preparation for the coming o:
the Lord into the hearts and lives o:
ttie people consists of the subjuga
tion of pride and selfish ambition, and
the straightening of the crooked an<
perverse things of this life.
3. The glory of the Lord revealed
(v. 5).
When there is proper preparation
of heart, the. Lord will enter, and Hil
glory will be revealed in the life. Ji
primarily refers to the manifestation
of die divine glory in die person ol
die Messiah.
111. The Frailty of Man In Contrast
With God’s Word (vv. 6-8).
“All flesh is grass and nil the good
liness thereof is as the flower of tUi
field. The grass withered], the flowei
fadeth, because the Spirit of the Lore
bloweth upon it. Surely the people ii
grass. The grass withered), die flowei
fadeth, but the word of our God shal
stand forever.” Just as the blast oi
the hot wind scorches the grass and
destroys the crops, so everythin!
loved and prized by the natural mai
will wither and die under the bias'
of God’S judgment, but His Word
shall stand forever. The Word of Got
abides from age to age widi peren
nia! freshness. God’s promise of ultl
mate triumph should steady us be
cause no matter through what stresi
and strain we may be called to pass
when the Lord comes there will b<
victory.
IV. The Lord God Coming to Zioi
(vv. 9-11).
1. Behold Your God. (v. 9).
When He comes to Zion there wl!
he no need of fear. Tills blessed trutl
can he proclaimed aloud to the citiei
of Judah.
2. The Lord God will come with i
strong hand. (v. 10).
The hope of the world Is in th<
coming of Jesus Christ in power and
great glory to establish His blessed
rule over the earth. Righteousnesi
and peace can some only with tin
j Messianic rule.
3. He shall feed His flock like t
shepherd (v. 11).
The Good Shepherd will search oul
and provide for His own.
