AFTER MEASLES

Parents too often make the mis-
take of thinking that certain diseases
of childhood, such as measles and
whoopipng cough. are harmless.
Measles is very likely to weaken
the kidneys and leave serious effects
unless the system is built UP with a
reliable strength creator such as vi
mol, our delicious cod liver and iron
preparation without oil.

of Luzerne, n. Y, says: Il had

Education May End Warfare.

Warfare is to be ended for all time,
al least so far as the United States is
| concerned, and the standard of citizen
ship in this country is TO be put on Il
, higher plane than ever before. by a
course Of study in good viii which is
devised fer the elementary schools
, throughout this country. Such, at
, least. is the hope of those who have
formulated the course. A complete
outline of the topics covered in this
new school subject is contained in a
Government publication just issued for
free distribution by the L. s. Bureau
of Education.
In the lower grades, according to the
Bureau of Educations monograph, the
child is trained in habits OF forbear-
ance, consideration, gentleness and
self-control. while in the later grades
emphasis is laid upon the principles Of
the world peace movement.
Thus in The first grade the child

deals with home life; the third, with
school and play time, while the fourth
takes up the home town or city. In
grade five the course broadens to in
Guide "a consideration of the whole
country; in the sixth, the child takes
up good citizenship; in the seventh he
studies the world family, and in the
last he learns what the larger patriot
ism means.
In this way the child grows up in the
understanding that the good will which
he must show his friends and parents
should also be extended to all the in
habitants of the earth. He begins by
learning that he must be kind to ami
mails aud playmates because he is in
constant relations with them: then he
comes to understand that this nation
should be at peace with all others. be-
cause all nations are interdependent;
and this finally leads to the last topic
in the whole long course-the united

The moral qualities essential to the
world peace movement, such as faith

also breathes hatred, scandal and

JUNE OU.-1NCN1CW ACooSA'
One-half of the year has gone, and
the time has come for another review
of a quarters work. The lessons have
been most interesting and import
ant, considering as they did the teach
ings of Jesus in the sermon on the
mount and helpful talks from st. Paul
and James. The first lesson came at
the Easter time, and so the selection
from the bible had reference to that
most vital subject. Saint Paul in that
remarkable 18th. chapter of First
Corinthians told of the plain proofs OF
the rising again of Jesus from the
tomb. He called attention to the fact
that by belief in the gospel of Jesus
the Christ, one is saved and given
eternal life. OF course, the very basis
of the christian religion is the resur.
rection of Jesus. Let it be ever in
mind that the fact that He arose from
the dead was not disputed at the
time, when Paul and Peter told of it
within few months and years after
it took place. This they would not
dared to have done if the people about
Jerusalem did not know it was true.
There was lesson on the proper
way to spend the Sabbath day, and 1t
was shown that things necessary and
helpful can certainly be done. The
lesson of April 21st was taken from
the sermon on the mount and where
Jesus tells christians that they must
be as the salt of the earth, lights
pointing the way to better life.
Jesus makes the most important
declaration, that His followers should
10 let their light shine that people
may see their good works and glorify
God.
The qualities which make a good
christian are set forth in the lesson
for April 2Sth. Jesus there says that
a christian must be humble, meek,
pure in heart, peacemaker, merci-
full, hungry after a right life. He
says that one has cause to rejoice ii
made fun of, or prosecuted for being
a true christian.
Jesus takes up the matter of the
relation of His gospel to those who
are rich. The story of the rich man
and Lazarus is told, to show that
those who are worthy poor in this
world will not be forgotten in the
next. Jesus very clearly set forth the
end of the rich man whose ambition
is alone for riches, when declaring:
"What shalt it profit man, if he gain
the whole world and lose his own
soul?"
Jesus portrayed the true character
of God and what is expected of chris
tians, in His talks on love. He says,
Love your enemies, do good to them
who hate YOU" To do this means
pretty near perfection of character,
but this is the standard set up, and
the demand is made that people come
up to it. With this came the law as
to FORGIVENESS, Jesus says that we
must forgive if We expect God to for
give us. He says that we cannot
make successful prayers to Him, if
we have hatred in our hearts toward
anyone.
There is an important lesson on the
