For three years had Tetter on mn hands. Part of the time the disease was in the form of running sores, very painful and causing me much discomfort. Four doctors said the Tetter had progressed too far to be cured, and they could do nothing fo, me. took only three bottles of S.S.S, and was completely cured. This wa, fifteen years ago, and I have never since seen any sign of my old trouble.

An Authoritative Teacher.

Now. my friends, as gospel students
 are you ready to accept Jesus Christ as an authoritative teacher? Are you ready to accept him as the Son of God? A few weeks ago a gentleman wrote to friend of mine a pathetic letter, which went something like this: on why do the ministers keep on preaching upon useless and impractical subjects? Why do they not preach upon some of the vital ques- tions of the soul? A short time ago the doctors told me that within six months I must die. What I want to know is how I can straighten out wasted life so as to meet my God" Well. my brother, if

self-respecting people who have a good position should so demean themselves as to accept contributions from strangers in that way. If the people for whom I work should offer to tip me every time I drew an extra breath I should feel insulted. I should imagine that they considered me a mere servant"
 When the work was at last finished the girl braced back and looked at the woman steadily.
 I'm not so sensitive as some folks, 5 she said. ''I don't mind if people do con- slider me servant"

She Was Not Sensitive.

 Employees in various lines of business who are out for tips are not easily in suited by chance or premeditated remarks of the people from whom the tips necessa- rily come. One woman who has had her pocket book drained and her soul tor tured by the insidous but persistent de- mands of such attendants had that fact impressed upon her early in the week.
 She was visitor in an uptown mani cure parlor. She had been there several times before. and each time had courage ously gone away without paying anything in excess of the regular taxation. On the occasion of her latest visit the girl who took charge of her hands adriotly intro- duced tipping as an appropriate subject for conversation. ahe woman avaied her self of the opportunity to express her sen- timents forcibly.

The Gospel Classroom.

The gospel classroom in the first place, has in Christ an authoritative teacher. | invite you with confidence to sit at hlS feet because he has a right to teach. He speaks not only because as human being he has learned what we ought to learn, but he comes clothed with dlVlne authority. His credentials are higher than those of any human teacher. They nroeeed from God himself. He Is the Son and the co-equal of God the Father. He comes to us a conqueror clothed in white vesture "and on his thigh name writ ten. King of kings and Lord of lords. v For he taught them as one having au- thority and not as the scribes.
 In this age of intellectual progress IL IS absolutely essential for every true teach- CT. whether of the higher or the lower grades to have his or her credentials. For instance, if I wish to educate one of my little girls to be public school teach or I say to her: Now daughter your future life occupation depends entirely upon yourself and your work. am going 10 send you through the common puohc school l believe every child should go there, be she rich or poor black or white, Jew or gentle or Catholic, In order to produce the best types of American citi- zens all classes of children should stand shoulder to shoulder and hand in hand at the school desk. Then will send you 10 the high school, then to the normal Then, when you have your different di- plomas. you can go before the state board or county board of examiners and have your knowledge tested. Then. if you pass. vour teachers certificate will be given you But daughter, you cannot teach in any public school unless you are an au- thoritative teacher-unless you have your credentials. Without them you cannot even be a cadet or a substitute for day.
 All the 5.775 teachers of Chicago who faced the PCS. .392 scholars of Cook county last year were prepared for an instructor s life in this way.
 I ask the professor of geology in some great university what right he has to oc- cupv teachers chair "I have been ap- pointed." he answers "by the heads of the university with the approval of the faculty 1 have demonstrated my fitness to teach by the text books l have written. I have studied the strata of the rocks. l have sat at the feet of the greatest mas ters of the science. I hold diplomas from domestic and foreign universities These are my credentials" So Christ enters the gospel classroom as a teacher, clothed with authority The wisdom of the god head was given to him. In the counsels of eternity he learned the mysteries of the divine government. He became man, and by a career that Is the wonder of the ages he has taught his people how to live.

A Message to the World.

What a message it is that the students in Christ's school are commissioned to de liver to the worldl It transforms the whole aspect of life. This world, in the light of our Lords teaching, is no longer the scene of meaningless suffering Of useless struggle and inevitable disappoint- ment It is a scene of preparation, of dis cipline. of education, in the highest sense of the word, for a. larger, fuller life. As the children who are now assembling in our school houses are being prepared for a manhood and womanhood of useful ser vice. so the men and women in Christ's school have reached a higher grade. They, too, are being educated and trained for a grander career. The lessons are hard to learn. The discipline Is often painful. But we go to our tasks with a brave heart when we discover that there is purpose in it all. We can bear hardship and persecution and affliction when we know that they are developing in us quail ities which we shall need in better world than this. Thus trials come to us with new faces. We can understand now our Divine Teachers inaugural message: Blessed are they that mourn:" Blessed are they who hunger and thirst" for un- der his blessed teaching we have learned that "al things work together for good to them that love God"
 Thus, my Christian friends. by the words of my text, open to you life of endless gospel activity. First, as a student you are to come into touch with Jesus You are to be like your great Divine Master. This will not be very difficult if you will only come near enough to Christ. If you will only live in his presence day by day It has often been said among the alumni of Williams college that each student who ever lived under the influence of Mark Hopkins had a distinctive stamp placed upon him which marked him as a Hop kinsite." So if you live near to Jesus you will have his stamp upon you. You will become Christlke; you will become good" or like God You will not, as did the ignorant country boy, copy chromo stamped on a daily newspaper page and call that art" You will be as one who studies great original masterpiece. Your model will be Jesus. Intuitively, con- his presence you will absorb his person. ality In your life.
 The second purpose of this text is to send you forth as gospel evengelists. You are to go up and down the street and preach everywhere the sweet story of Jesus. You are to do this because if you are true gospel students you will as natu- rally talk about your Divine Teacher as a bird matched under a songstress' wing will sing; as seed dropped from rose bush will develop into rose: as dew drop first touched of the morning sun will sparkle like diamond; as a dying sunset will gild the overhanging clouds with passementeries of gold. May this sermon be the means under the power of the Holy Spirit to lead you into the gospel class room May it also be the means of send ing you forth. one and all as gospel teachers.

For the Weak and Helpless.

We have often read how heroic deeds in martial life have saved an army for an earthly king. Can we not realize how
 our deeds as the representatives of Christ can draw men to or drive them away
 from the cross? Many years ago a French army was battling under the hot and blasting Algerian sun. The forced marches and the counter marches which that army was compelled to take were enough to kill an African negro, let alone Flu ropean. Then in order to increase the horror fatal cholera broke out in one reg
 iment. Man after man died. The army became panic stricken and all seemed to be lost. But one night Colonel Gardarens wanted to prove that this dreaded disease was contagious wholly through food and drink and in no other way" So he him self lifted one of the cholera corpses out of it's bed. Then he turned to his men and said. Now 1 will show you that cholera is not infectious. will pass the night in this mans bed" He raised the bed clothes and lay down and slept. In the morning he awoke. arose and de- parted to his own quarters well man. That power of a personal example in- spired his men. They took heart. The French army was saved My friends, our examples as representatives of Jesus Christ must exert the same kind of good or bad influence that Colonel Gardarens had over his men. As gospel students we must duplicate Christs life or we must misrepresent him. We shall lead sinful men and women to his altar or drive them farther away. We are the light of the world" 'We are the salt of the earth" We are the cities set upon a hill which cannot be hid" As gospel students we are Christs representatives. Christs wit nesses, and we cannot help it.
 But where as Christian disciples shall we build Christs future classrooms? Ev- anywhere. In them must be gathered the old and the young, the rich and the poor, the white and the black, the Jew, the gentle. For them the applications for membership do not need the en- dorsement of wealthy mans check. They are not restricted to social caste. as is the famous private school near St. Petersburg, which was established only for the sons and daught- CTS of the men who are the favorites of the Russian czar. Did I say the future gospel classrooms must be built for all people alike? l misquoted myself. They must be especially built for the poor and the helpless and the weak and the lame and the blind and the outcasts, social and spiritual The command is given unto us in emphatic terms, "Go ye out into the highways and the hedges and compel them to come in" These are the words Christ uses. Compel, compel, compel them to come in

People with good blood possess strong, steady nerves and are blest with good appetites and digestion, and enjoy sound, refreshing sleep. If we could always maintain the purity of the blood then we might enjoy perpetual health. but it becomes infected and noisoned and most of the ills that aflict humanity and undermine the constitu- tion are caused by an impoverished or polluted condition of this vital fluid.
 When the blood is diseased the skin loses it's healthy appearance, and the complexion, its freshness and beauty and becomes red and rough and full of pinples and splotches. Itching, scaly eruptions, blackheads, boils and rashes break out upon the body when the blood is too poor or too thin and acid, and is not supplying proper nourish- fnent to the system. Debility, poor appetite, bad digestion, restless sleep and nervousness more often come from sluggish, impure blood than any other cause.

chrlst,s Greater Purpose.

But the Divine Teacher Christ has a far great purpose than to merely save his gospel students He teaches his disciples. who sit al his feet in order that they may become like him. how they in turn may carry his message and truth to the farth- ermost parts of the earth. He looks upon his students with respect to their fu- ture, as every true instructor ought to do. once read of a famous teacher who never entered his classroom but he al- ways took off his hat and bowed before his scholars as though he was coming into the presence of king. for" he said. mo one knows what future ruler or leader of the people may be developing under my touch. Therefore I wish to show my stu dents proper respect" Christ in the same way is looking at his gospel students through the eyes of prophecy. He is tho Divine Instructor, who teaches his dis ciples that through them we may learn the way of life. He is teaching his dis ciples in order that the countless multi tudes. groping about in the darkness of heathendom may through us be brought into saving touch with the cross.
 To duplicate the teachers knowledge and life in the lives of his students is all ways the far reaching purpose of true teaching. Why did General Samuel Chap
The Birmingham age-herald., 1903-09-27

man Armstrong found the Hampton school near Old Point Comfort. and why was that other Indian school established In Carlisle, Pa. It was in order to take the Indian boys and girls from the far west to the east, there to bring them into touch with the white mans teachers and white mans ways and then to send those Indian boys back to their tribes in the hope that the civilized red man would in turn civillze his brothers and sisters. Why does Booker T. Washngtons work have the hearty support of the white men both of the north and the south? Because he is trying to duplicate his plain, common sense, practical life in the lives of his stu- dents. He is not trying to teach the doc Urine that the black and the white races should intermarry. He is the apostle preaching that life means work; that the black race will never lift itself by polit- ieal agitations, but only by its members being good walters and coachmen and honest laborers and provident farmers and intelligent wives and mothers. He,is preaching the gospel of the toothbrush"
 He does not believe man, colored or white, can be respectable and be chroni- cally dirty Such is the duplicating pur- pose of Alabamas foremost negro educa- tor. Now, my friends, Jesus Christ as a Divine Teacher should have a duplicating power in the lives of his students. 1t should be found in the lives of his pro- fessing disciples, in the lives of some of us who have been crowding the gospel class room for the last ten, twenty-yes, even thirty and forty years Christ's dupli- eating power should be found in us. be- cause through us the gospel must be sent to some sinful and some lost soul to whom otherwise it may never be sent at

A Practical Suggestion.

l will say now that a specific way OF
curing a great evil is pointed out. Let
the American Jews give such SUD
stantial support as will render the
work of the expedition into British east
Africa thorough and therefore of the
best value. Then, if the report Of the
expedition is favorable, let the Ameri
can Jews who approve Of the plans,

ing the example, enter the ranks Of
Zionism en- nasse.
Let them send large delegation to
tie congress To be specially called to
consider the east African plan ana
thus help settle in a radical way the
problem created by Jewish emigration
to the United States. In that mar
ner they will help their afflicted broln-
ers and will also tighten their owl
