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.

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.” (TO BB CONTINUED.) the light given off by a piece of rubbed phosphorus in the dark. But it is not caused by phosphorus.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—The Source of True Oamfort, 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.
