Heat Very Trying
To Women's Nerves.
They Neglect Their Bowels and
the POisOnS Vitiate the Blood.

Hot weather has very weakening
effect on women. They are too Ian
guild to exercise, and as a result have
appetite only for foods that seem
light and tasty, such as salads and
other cold concoctions. But these
frequently produce indigestion, and
with it comes constipation.
1t is especially in hot weather that
women should keep up the highest
standard of health, for it isnecessary
to have strength to resist the heat.
The first essentials are good diges-
ton and regular bowel movement,
and then good red blood and steady
nerves will follow. The best way to
obtain these is not by an over-indul-
gence in fruits, which are often not
ripe or over-ripe, and hence are dan
gerous, but in the use of a gentle and
pleasant-tasting bowel stimulant like
DR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. Use it
tonight and your constipation, indi-
gestion and sick headaches will van
ish by morning.

History Early Christian Church.


History Early Christian Church.
The history of the Christian
church throughout the ages is not
only instructive but interesting, and
as we go through the different CEN
turies let us consider the wonderful
working of Divine Providence in
keeping alive His truth in the dark
est ages, and as it would seem to us,
to be almost lost in the ignorance
and superstition of the time. This
light was kept burning, sometimes
dimly and again it would shine forth
in wonderful brightness. My author
ity is from the most authentic writ
ers of those distant days, Josephus,
the Jewish historian, Tacitus, Seneca
and our own writer's of the sacred
Scriptures. As just before the dawn
is the darkest hour, so it would seem
that the Sun of Righteousness chose
that darkest time in the worlds his
tory to shine forth and bring light
into that great time of spiritual
darkness. The civil power of that
time was in the hands Of Herod
Agrippa, who was a great favorite OF
the Roman Emperor. It-was about
sixty-four years after the birth OF
our Lord that the city of Rome was
burned and some writers claim that
Nero burned it so asto lay the blame
upon the Christians and vindicate
himself in the eyes of the world for
their persecution. The name OF
Christian, Tacitus tells US, was held
in great contempt, and it was about
then that the Romans legally perse-
cuted the church. A little before
this the Gospel spread into Spaln'
and every place under the Roman
power was in a great state OF suffer-
ing until this tyrant died miserably
in the year 68. to answer for all his
crimes before a higher tribunal.
Josephus wrote: About this time
lived Jesus, a man who performed
many marvellous things, and He made
MANY converts among the Jews and
Greeks; this was the Christ" st
Pe1er stayed at Rome a short time
about the year 6S and, unlike st
Paul, was a married man, ,and Glenn
ent saws was very careful in the ed
ucation of his children. St John, the
beloved, lived almost to the close OF
the first century, and his preaching
helped to check the heresies which
were beginning to creep into the
church. The second century dawned
under the reign of Trajan, and the
Christians suffered greatly during
that reign. 1t was in the year 1O7
that Ignatius, Bishop of Antioch
was martyred for the cause OF Jesus.
His letters tell US many things con-
corning the primitive church. Chris
tianity found mankind in a univer-
sal state of sin and misery. The an
cient people of God had fallen into
| vice and idolatry, and notwithstand-
ing the prophecies of the revealed
word concerning the Messiah, that
nation, as we'll as the other nations
of the world, was in utter darkness
and was kept alive by the dim light
which dwelt in Zacharias, Simeon,
Anna and a few others, who looked
for redemption in Jerusalem.
Josephus tells us that the world
was plunged into the most extreme
wickedness and impiety. Here we
close the second century. which ex-

Editor County Record
see that August 19 is the day to
vote on the liquor question. That is
my excuse for asking more of your
space.
Replying to the last part of Broth
er WI Clayton's letter of June 80
where he says emphatically that the
Bible does rot teach prohibition, al
though of course he replied to some
one else, have taken it up, not be-
cause can reply better than his op-
ponent, but the time is short to Au-
gust 19 and many of our people do
not read the Bible.
We will begin at Deut. Ixxi:2O-21.
| will cite only a verse or so from
every paragraph. Hope the readers
of The Record will read the whole
paragraph in connection with each
citation.
Verse 20: And they shall say un-
to the elders of his city: This, our
son, is stubborn and rebellious He
will not obey our voice; he is glut-
ton and a drunkard."
Verse 21: And the men of his
city shall stone him with stones, that
he die. So shalt thou put away evil
from among you, and all Israel shall
hear and fear"
Proverbs xxiii:29-S5: Look not
thou upon the wine when it is red,
when it giveth his color in the cup,
when it moveth itself Alright; at the
last it biteth like serpent and sting
eth like an adder. Thine eyes shall
behold strange women, etc"
Jeremiah xxxv:12-19: And Jere-
miah said unto the house of the
Rechabites, Thus saith the Lord OF
hosts, the God of Israel, Because ye
have obeyed the voice of Jonadab,
your father. and kept all his pre-
cepts, and done according unto all that
he hath commanded you; Therefore,
thus saith the Lord of hosts, the
God of Israel: Jonadab, the son Of
Rechab, shall not want a man to
stand before Me forever.
Luke xxi:34-36: Take heed unto
yourselves lest at any time your
hearts be overcharged with surfeit-
ing and drunkenness and cares OF
this life, and so that day come upon
you unawares."
Matthew xxiv:42-51 mote v. 49,:
And shall begin to smite his fel-
low-servants and to eat and drink
with the drunken" Verses SO and
81 are sad.
See Romans xiii:13: 1T is good
neither to eat flesh nor to drink
wine nor anything whereby thy bro
ther stumbleth or is offended or is
made weak
In the mouths of two or three
witnesses shall every word be estab-
lished." l have given three quota
.tions from the Old Testament and
four from the New. Now, my dear
Brother Clayton, if the Bible teach
ing referred to doesn't teach prohi-
bition, what does it teach?
AS to the church's endorsing the
violation of the Sabbath, if you had
noticed the Methodist conferences,
Baptist conventions, Presbyterian
synods and other church meetings,
you would have seen that time and
again these religious bodies have ex,
pressed disapproval of those railroad
and whisky sins. We don't make
laws for State or church,we only try
to execute what laws God has made.
Why don't YOU appeal to our law
makers? Why pile it on the churches!
There is one answer to it: The car
nal mind is at enmity against God
and His church.
Much love.
If my friend will allow me l will
give a broadside fire, not against my
brother, but against the devil and his
works E JAMES.
