The Cause of Many
Sudden Deaths.
There is a disease prevailing in this
country most dangerous because so decep
■ tive. Many sudden
deaths are caused
by it—heart dis
ease, pneumonia,
heart failure or
apoplexy are often
the result of kid
ney disease. If
kidney trouble is
alio wed to ad vane e
thekidney-poison
. ed blood will at
tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of
the bladder, brick-dust cr sediment in
the urine, head ache, back ache, lame
back, dizziness, sleeplessness, nervous
ness, or the kidneys themselves break
down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almostalwaysresv.lt
from a derangement of the kidneys and
better health in that organ is obtained
quickest by a proper treatment of the kid
neys. Swamp-Root corrects inability to
hold urine and scalding pain in passing it,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
being compelled to go often through
the day, and to get up man}' times during
the night. The mild and immediate effect
of Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
is soon realized. It stands the highest be
cause of its remarkable health restoring
properties. A trial will convince anyone.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in fifty-cer.t and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle and a book that tells all
about it, both sent free by mail. Address,
Dr. Kilmer & Cos., Binghamton, N. Y.

erous offer in this paper. Don’t make

TO ALTER POSTAL LAWS
Congress Asked to Change the
Second-Class Matter Rules.
NEWSPAPERS WANT CHANGE
The Law as It Now Stands Gives Post-
Office Department Censorship Over
the Advertising Columns.
Washington, D. C.—Postoffice de
partment officials believe that con
gress next winter will enact some
very important legislation affecting
that department. In addition to the
efforts to secure the passage of a
parcels post bill and a postal savings
bank bill, the bill recommended by
the postal commission making most
important changes in the law regu
lating the transmission of second class
matter will be pushed.
The changes recommended by the
commission are for the improvement
of the service to give the public bet
ter facilities as well as taking from
the department some of its arbitrary
powers, it is generally believed that
there is no press censor under the
government such as they have in for
eign countries, and in a sense this
is true, but under the existing law
every publication, from daily newspa
per to monthly magazine, is at the
mercy of the postoftice department.
If the thiid assistant postmaster
general, under whose jurisdiction is
the second class mail matter, should
take a notion, to exclude from the
mails any publication he can do so
and the courts may not interfere. No
publication can secure the privilege
of second class matter without the
approval of that official. The law, as
it now stands, also gives the posi
office department censorship over the
advertising columns of a newspaper.
Any advertisement that can be con
strued as a lottery notice, or mislead
ing in sense, would be sufficient to
throw out of the mails the edition of
the paper containing the offending ad
vertisement. Therefore, the power
lodged in the official named is of
such a character that he becomes a
dictator from whom there is no ap
peal.
When corporations complain of the
government's inquisitorial methods
they should ask the newspaper pub
lishers to tell them something about
the postoffice department. The pos
tal commission was very much im
pressed when the members investi
gated the subject a year or two ago
and in their report to congress rec
ommended a change in the law that
would give the publisher the right
to appeal to the courts from a de
cision of the department that ex
cludes the publication from the mails.
Under the practice now in vogue a
publisher may be cut off from the
second class privilege and he has
no redress for the injury received.
The department holds that the ad
mission of publications to the second
class at the reduced rates is not a
light given by law. but a privilege,
The publishers, it was intimated at
the postoffice department, will make
an active fight next winter to secure
legislation in conforcity with the rec
ommendations contained in the postal
commission’s report. It has been
made clear to the publishers that of
late years the postoffice department
has placed obstacles in the way of
their efforts to increase revenue. Many
propositions submitted by publishers
were rejected by the postofficce de
partment on the ground that it would
be an infraction of the rules govern
ing the admission of second class
matter.
The last report of the third assist
ant postmaster general made it clear
to the publishers that if they are to
keep at the head of the procession
and make more attractive their pub
lications, it will be necessary for
them to combine to secure legislation
that will take from the department
some of its power of censorship,
which may be so arbitrarily used <o
punish publishers
PROHIBITION LAW UPHELD.
Tennessee Case Will Be Appealed to
Supreme Court for Decision.
Chattanooga, Tenn.—Judge T. M.
McConnell, chaneelor, has decided
that the liquor sales act passed .by
the last legislature is valid, with the
exception of the clause preventing the
shipment of liquor by dealers to
points outside the state, which would
be an interference with the regula
tion of interstate commerce.
in other respects the application for
an injunction brought by J. M. Kelly
and others against Sheriff Connor and
others is denied, and it is held to
have been the intention of the legis
lature to prohibit both wholesale and
retails sales in the state.
The case will be appealed to the su
preme court by both sides.
VETERANS OF TWO WARS FIGHT.
Spanish War Soldier Bested by Con
federate Soldier.
Louisville, Ky.—Joseph Hallman, a
Confederate veteran, aged 60, put in
the hospital John Hudson, a Spanish-
American war veteran, because Hud
son disparaged the service Hallman
had seen under Jackson and Lee.
Hallman was jailed, pending the out
come of an alleged concussion of the
brain, which his blows inflicted upon
Hudson.
Hallman says that in a friendly con
versation Hudson attempted to lay
over the “glorious struggle of 1863”
the exploits of those who had charg

INTERNATIONAL LESSON COM
MENTS FOR SEPTEMBER 12.
Subject: ( lose of Paul's Third Mis
sionary Journey, Acts 21:1-17
Golden Text: Acts 21:14—Com
mit Verses l;J, 14—Commentary.
TIME.—A. D. 58.
PLACES.—Tyre. Caesarea.
EXPOSITION.—I. Seven Days at
Tyre, 6. When Paul reached a city
he at once looked up the disciples in
it. He longed to impart to them
some spiritual gift (Rom. 1:11), and
to be comforted in them (Rom. 1:12
R. V.). Any one who was a disciple
of his Lord Jesus was, because of that
fact, an object of Paul’s tender affec
tion and interest. Do all Christians
to-day in their travels keep a sharp
lookout for the disciples of Christ In
the cities they visit, and hunt them
up, with eager love and desire to help
them? A seven days’ stay seems to
have been quite the customary thing
with Paul (ch. 20:6, 7; 28:14). Paul
did set foot in Jerusalem. Was the
Spirit, then, mistaken? (v. 4). Notin
the least. These men spoke “through
the Spirit,” i. e., it was what the
Spirit said to them that led them to
speak to Paul. But they were not
wise interpreters of the Holy Spirit’s
teaching. Doubtless what the Holy
Spirit testified to them was what He
testified in every city, viz., that bonds
and afflictions awaited Paul (ch. 20:
23: cf. vs. 10-12). They could not
endure the thought, and so they put
their own construction on the Spirit’s
teaching, and put it into their own
words and said “he should not set
foot in Jerusalem” (R. V.). There
are those to-dav who would have us
believe that this is the kind of inspir
ation we have in the Bible—that the
Spirit gives “the concept,” but apos
tles and prophets put this Spirit-giv
en “concept” into their own words.
We see from this passage how unre
liable a revelation the Bible would be
if this were the mode of its inspira
tion. It is not (1 Cor. 2:13, R. V.,
Am. App.). When the Spirit teaches
ns, we need to be careful to give out
precisely what the Spirit gives us, and
not our inferences from it, or we also
“through the Snirit,” will teach error.
Paul had won the heart of every man.
woman and child in the church of
Tyre. We are apt to lose sight of the
exceeding lovableness of this man
Paul. He was so much else that was
great that we lose sight, of his gentle
winsomeness (cf. ch. 20:37, 381. One
can almost see that company of men.
women and children groaned about
Paul, all kneeling and all praying.
It was no empty prayer. That united
prayer doubtless got what it sought.
It brought down from God blessing
for Paul and blessing for the church
of Tyre. It always means much when
a company of true disciples kneel to
gether in believing, simple and defi
nite prayer. This was a model leave
taking (cf. ch. 20:36). The sitth
verse gives us a suggestive sentence.
Our earthly guides and helpers are
separated from us, but there are two
heavenly guides who always abide
with us (Matt. 28:20; Jno. 14:16,
17). Happy is the man whose trust
is in them and not in man.
11. Many Days in Caesarea, 7-14.
These verses give us a glimpse of sev
eral very gifted persons in the early
church: Philip, his four daughters,
all prophetesses, and Agabus. The
church had made Philip a deacon
(Acts 6:1-6). God had made Philip
an evangelist. God only can make a
true evangelist (Eph. 4:11). Philip
had come to Caesarea in his tours
from city to city, some years before
(ch. 8:26, 39, 40). He seems to
have made it, from that time, a base
of operations. He was greatly blessed
in his domestic life. He not only had
four daughters—which would of it
self be a blessing (Ps. 127:3-5; 128:
3) —but these daughters were all
spiritually gifted. Some might think
that these children, being women,
ought to keep silence in the church,
but God evidently thought otherwise.
He made them prophets (cf. 2:17).
Paul in the very epistle in which he,
under the inspiration of the Spirit,
forbids women speaking under cer
tain circumstances in the assembly
(1 Cor. 14:34), also gives directions
how women shall prophesy (1 Cor.
11:5). Agabus not only spake
“through the Spirit,” but he took
pains to give the very words of the
Spirit, and so he got things exactly
right. When a man can truly say,
"Thus saith the Holy Ghost,” we may
depend upon the literal accuracy of
his words. But many in our day pre
sumptuously dare to say It when it is
not true, and their prophecies come
to naught. We do well to be slow
in accepting any man's claim to be
the mouthpiece of the Holy Spirit.
The history of the church tells of
hosts of pretenders of that sort. One
single failure in their prophecies is
enough to discredit their claims, for
the Holy Spirit never errs. Agabus
did not tell Paul not to go to Jerusa
lem, but simply forewarned him of
what awaited him there. Paul’s
friends, however, sought with ear
nest importunities to dissuade him
from going where God was leading
him. It was the Spirit who was lead
ing Paul to Jerusalem. Paul had
plainly declared that fact (ch. 20:
22). Yet these foolish friends would
dissuade Paul from going, as there
was suffering on the way. Many
think that the path where suffering
lies cannot be the right path, but not
so the Lord (Matt. 16:24; 2 Tim. 2:
12; 3:12). Paul’s last journey to
Jerusalem was much like his Mas
ter's.. The same clear vision of afflic
tion awaiting him, the same dissua
sion on the part of friends
