ASTHMA SUFFERERS
MAKES BREATHING EASY

In New England where Bronchitis
Asthma and other diseases of the
throat and lungs are so prevalent some
wonderfully speedy recoYeries have
recently been effected by the use of a
treatment known as Oxidaze, first in
troduced by DIR. Eugene Howard, a
prominent Worcester physician.
Oxidaze, which is a powerful, but
highly concentrated com mbination OF
curative agents, comes compressed
in small tablet which the patient dis
solves in the mouth. One of these
simple and pleasant tasting tablets
put in the mouth just before going to
bed clears out all the choked up air
passages, soothes the irritated bron-
chial tubes and enables the asthmatic
sufferer to breathe easily and naturally
while lying down and to get a COM

prevail more than the preaching of
the pastors. 1t would be a surprise to
all concerned il we could know who
really is who in the average church.
The obscure man who emerges in
this story is a Christian named An
anias. man of truer quality than
the famous one who was smitten for
his avarice and falsehood. Let us
turn to the text for a description of
Ananias' part in this great days
work, which affected all the subse-
quent history in the world:
And there was a certain disciple
at Damascus, named Ananias and to
him said the Lord in vision, Ananias.
And he said, Behold, | am here. Lord.
And the Lord said unto him, Arise,
and go into the street which is called
Straight, and inquire in the house of
Judas for one called Saul of Tarsus:
for, behold, he prayeth, and hath seen
IN vision man named Ananias
coming in, and putting his hand on
MIN, that he might receive his sight.
Then Ananias answered, Lord, I
have heard by many of this man, how
much evil he hath done to thy saints
at Jerusalem; and hear he hath au-

thority from the chief priests to bind
all that call upon thy name.
But the Lord said unto him, Go
thy way; for he is a chosen vessel
unto me, to bear my name before the
Gentiles. and kings. and the children
of Israel; for 1 will show him how
great things he must suffer for my
names sake, and Ananias went his
way. and entered into the house; and
putting his hands on him said, Brother
Saul the Lord, even Jesus, that ap-
peared unto thee in the way as thou
camest. hath sent me, that thou
mightest receive thy sight, and be
filed with the Holy Ghost. And i'm
mediately there fell from his eyes as
it had been scales: and he received
sight forthwith, and arose, and was
baptized. And when he had received
meat, he was strengthened. Then was
Saul certain days with the disciples
which were at Damascus"
The sort of man Ananias was is re-
vealed by the manner in which he
saluted his late enemy as Brother
Saul" He went the whole way. He
did not receive the new convert with
jealousy and suspicion and coldness.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1916-03-31

On the instant, Paul was received
into the whole fellowship, even be-
ing given the sacrament of baptism.
He knew himself at once a member of
that family whose bonds are stronger
than death, being ties of blood shed
on Calvary.
In his warm and open approach to
Saul, Ananias was typical of the
Christian brotherhood to-day, which
welcomes to its membership on a
basis of perfect equality, the peni-
tent outcast and the converted scholar.
We can imagine the rejoicing that
there was in the Damascus church
that day. What prayers had been
answered. The hand of persecution
had been stayed. A notable recruit
had been won. A fresh evidence of
the truth of the resurrection and of
the guardianship of the Lord over His
own had been given. If 1t was a great
day for the saints in Damascus, how
much greater was 1t for the Church
universal! Caesars crossing the Rubi-
con was a trifling incident in its eff
feet upon history, as compared with
the consequences of the conversion of
Saul of Tarsus at Damascus.

Special 10 The Washington Herald
New York, Oct. 30.-As the meeting of
the directors OF the United States Steel
Corporation draws near Wall Street is
inclined to moderate its estimates of earn
ings for the third quarter. Most Of the
estimates range between 100000 and
500, 900, 900.
All estimates are pure guesses but
based on shipments and average prices, II
would be an extraordinary achievement
FOR United States Steel to show more than
$50, 100000 earned. This would mean a
gain of approximately 100000 over the
preceding quarter which was a record
breaker
In some quarters Of the Street Charles
H Schwab is being privately quoted as
saying that he believes United States
Steel common stock will sell above 200
If the war lasts two years more.
Labor conditions in the tin plate mills
are more serious than in any other Of the

This will not affect the American Can
Company, which has first call on United

of long business relations and priority
OF contracts. Another advance in the Can
Company's price list is expected.
