HOW THE Bible
PURIFIED CHINA ]!
Medical Missionaries Have
Worked Wonders in Ce-
lestial Kingdom.

"Chinses Women" will be the sub.
iect, from which DIR. Isaac Taylor
Headland will lecture tonight at the
fourth of series Of five lectures CIV
en- in connection with the observance
OF the week Of prayer. This is said
to be one Of the best lectures Of the
entire series.
In spite Of the stormy weather last
evening, a large audience assembled
at the First Methodist Episcopal
Church to hear DR.. Headland lecture
on the subject Medicine in China"
DR., Headland described a number OF
journeys he had taken N China in
company with DR.. Hopkins, 9 famous
medical missionary, who is thought
by many Of the, Chinese to have per
formed more miracles than arc ac'
corded to Jesus in his work among
the Jews.
Dr.. Headland said in pars: Men
don't count in land without Bible.
Only the gospel enobles humanity.
Where the gospel goes cleanliness
goes. challenge you 20 ind one
clean city in the non.Chri 'tlaa world
where the gospel hasn't gone
With vividness that made many
squirm he described the appalling in
sanitary conditions he found in PEEK
in when he first went there IS years
ago, and with equal force he describ-
ed the changed conditions for the bet:
ter produced in that same city, since
the coming Of the gospel, and with
It Christian civilization. In like man
ner he contrasted the modes Of trans
portation when he first went to China
with those of today.
Powdered tigers teeth, powdered
scorpion stinge-s, powdered snakes
bones, he described as Chinese pre-;
scriptions for certain violent forms OF
disease.
To meet this superstition, the mis-
sionary sought to introduce modern
medicine, and SO successful was he
that the late empress dowager gave
1900 ounces of silver to help found
the first Christian medical school In
Pekfn.
The Chinese leaders of today are
thus supporting the missionary in bis
introduction OF western systems Of
medicine and sanitation.

Saturday Afternoons

This is perhaps. on most
Southern farms, the very busiest
time of all the year, but in our
rush to keep up with the work
let's not forget that the farm boy
who has worked hard all the
week deserves Saturday after
noon off. He will be all the
better for a good game of base
ball or frolic in the old swim
ming hole. BY all means teach
your boy that there IS CO success
without hard labor; but at the
same time don't forget that a
fifteen-h hour day from Monday
morning until Saturday night
has been known to make boys
look look for job elsewhere

Aunt Martha was frequently
praised for her culinary skill.
On one occasion, when a num-
Der of guests had dined with the
family, remark was made con-
corning the beautiful appearance
of Aunt Martha's pie, which had
a pretty scallop on the edge.
Discussion arose as to how the
cook managed to maintain such
an even design on every pie.
and Martha was summoned to
the dining room and the ques-
ton duly put to her.
The emotions of the guests
may be imagined when she .e-
piled:
"Oh. dat's easy. All jes' uses
nah false teeth"

When the old tin cans, barrels,
buckets and mudholes are filled
by rain the mosquito will emerge
and begin boring into the rinds
of human beings with his needle
like proboscis. Very few peo-
pie take pleasure in the musical
maneuvers and boring proclivi-
ties OF this little guest, but sur
prlslngly small per cent of them
take any part in inc effort to
prevent his breeding.
Tin cans and old buckets
should never be thrown away
until holes have been punched
IN the bottoms. Water in bar
rels, tubs Or pots should be pour
ed out or have enough oil pour
ed on to smother the little wrig,
glers. Mudholes and ponds
should be drained. Purewater
left in the sunshine for four OF
five days in hot weather will
breed mosquitoes, or in the
shade in few days more.
Mosquitoes, like flies, DO not
travel far. When the mosquitoes
begin to bite, look around for
the water. 1t is often under the
caves or in tubs nearby.
