:. /..lSh." Surely this was most re-
narkble statement to say the least
SUPPOSE we compare the record of
the asemblings and observance on the
seventh day with those found for the
first day. First there we find Christ
observing the Sabbath. Mark 1:21. 1t
was his custom to preach on that day,
Luke 4:l6.
The disciples rested on the Sabbath
while Christ was lying in the grave,
Luke 1856. 1t was Paul's manner to
make the Sabbath a preaching day,
Acts 17:2. The Gentle believers also
observed the Sabbath, Acts 10: 42-44.
Paul preached by the river side where
there was no synagogue on the Sabbath,
Acts 1913
He reasoned in the synagogue at Cor
NTH every Sabbath, Acts 1874.
He continued there a year and six
months (seyenty-eight Sabbaths) teach
ing the word of God, Acts 1911.
The church of Corinth was a Chris
tian church as proven by the fact that
they celebrated the Lords Supper,
Cor. IL: 1926.
They were taught to keep Gods law
Cor. 7:19 and they were Sabbath keep
! ers, (Acts 1851 All this in spite of
First Days assertion that there Is not
single instance of a Christian As
sembly convened on the Sabbath or
seventh day for worship.
On the other hand, how about Sun
day? What the scriptures have to say
about the first day IS very brief. 1t is
My mentioned eight. times in all the
Gw Testament as follows:
christ rose from the dead on that day,
TX 16:9; Matt. 28;1; Mark 17:2, John
4. But he did not say that it was
Eerefore the Sabbath.
The women brought spices to the
rave of the Saviour on that day, Luke
81; Christ appeared to his disciples on
lat day, John 20:19.

Constipation and
 Hear Often Fatal
Regularity of Bowels Very Inn portant to Health at This
 Time.

At no time of the year should peo- pie be more careful of the condition of their bowels than in hot weather. Many things may cause constipation in summer, but whatever it may be the trouble should be promptly remedied. constipated person lays himself or herself open to serious and often fatal diseases. That feeling of congestion, lassitude or dull headache is the first warning of trouble
 V Don't try to remedy it by the ex- ~cessive eating of fruit, which usually has a laxative effect but lacks action in extreme cases. What is needed is reliable but mild laxative tonic like Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. Take a dose of it at night before retiring-it is pleasant tasting and free from grip lng-and by morning your bowels will be enptied and your head clear. You will feel energetic again.
 z You cannot obtain such results with cathartics, purgatives. salts or pills, as, unlike Dr. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin, they are without tonic value and en> tirely too harsh. Among the thou sands of dependable converts to Syrup Pepsin are the families of MT. F. c. Harris, Live Oak, Fla, who now finds his stomach better than it has been in ten years; and Mrs. T. D. Diemer,
