died and to journey to the north and
west to a land which God would show
him. Paul says "by faith Abraham,
when he was called to go out into a
place which he should receive for an
inha bitance, obeyed; and he went out;
not knowing whittier he went"
| have always liked this phrase of
the definition of faith-that is believ-
ing what God says is true and acting
on this belief as if it was already an
accomplished fact. Hope that thing
will come about is one thing, but faith
is quite another AS we look back
on the life of Abraham it may not
strike us that he acted in remark
fable way, but just put your finger on
an event in your own career where
you with all the bible record before
YOU have decided to do certain thing
on faith on the promise Of God. You
may have to think some time. Abra-
ham was ready to leave all that men
hold dear, and betake himself to an
unknown land simply because his God
said it should be done, and that in
the long future there would be great
reward.
Some may think that it was easy
enough for Abraham, Joseph, Moses,
Joshua to have such faith that they
would Withstand the pleadings of their
associates, seeming unanimous public
opinion, yet it is not so. They were
men of like qualities of mind as we
are, and sensitive to the ideas of their
times. We must make their faith our
faith, as they launched out on a
course of action because they had the
promises of Cod that certain things
we're true, so must I'VE. The record
shows that the promises made to the
men of old were sustained and fulfilled
and there is thus every reason to
know that such promises will be car
ried out in the future.
The lesson of today is stern call
for a showing of1faith among the
christians Of our day. We want to be
among those who stand on the prom
ises of God who believe they are true
and act as if they were accomplished
facts. If in business ventures one has
an assurance from one who knows
that certain thingsc are to come out
Just so, there is confidence to act. If
one has the sure promise of financial
aid if they undertake proposition,
with what zeal they go in while others
stand back with hesitation. If you
have tried the strength of bar Of
steel, the capacity of one who has
served you in the past; know your
own abilities under pressure, you do

HOW IT HAPPENED

Mr. Ashelman is only one of thous-
ands who suffered for years, owing to
the general belief in the old, false the
Dry that Uric Acid causes rheuma-
tism. This erroneous belief induced
him and legions Of unfortunate men and
women to take wrong treatments. You
might just as well attempt to put out
fire with Oil as to try and get rid of
your rheumatism, neuritis and like com,
plants, by taking treatment supposed
to drive Uric Acid out of your blood and
body. Many physicians and scientists
now know that Uric Acid never did, new
er can and never will cause rheumatism;
that it is a natural and necessary con-
stituent Of the blood: that it is found
in every new born babe, and that with
out it we could not live! III

WHAT FOREIGN SCOUTS DO.

We must produce food as never be-
fore to keep America for Americans.
Secretary Houston urges the boy
scouts to double their production of
food In 1918. 1t can be done. The
scouts of every country lin the world
have made good.
Belgian boys carried dispatches
through the very enemy's lines when
the most skillfully trained soldier cou-
riers failed. Belgian scouts gave up
their lives rather than betray the Sc
crets of their country.
French and English scouts have
many times secured information abso-
lutely necessary for the safety of their
countries armies.
Certain 1t Is that American boys
would live up to the records made by
these European scouts, even to the CIV
ing up of their lives If their country
needed these supreme sacrifices.
American scouts, scoutmasters and
scout commissioners already are in the
trenches of Llberty's front lines de-

barbarian onslaught.

WHY BALL CAN BE CURVED
= Presence of Irregularities on the
Sphere Alone Makes the Feat
Possibility.

If it were not for mountains" on a
baseball much larger in proportion
than any mountains on earth the clev-
er pitcher could not get so much
as a sixteenth of an inch curve in it.
II baseball were a perfect sphere
the best pitcher In the world could not
make it curve a hairs breadth other
than the natural curve produced by
gravity. The reason the baseball
curves, says the American Boy, is be-
cause it is covered with mountains"
There are great peaks and ridges, val
leys and cliffs, gullies and craters all
over 1t. Magnified 10000 dlameters,
all these things may be seen, and they
present a far more rugged landscape
than any mountainous region in the
world. 1t looks like an exaggerated
combination of the Grand Canyon, Bad
Lands, Alps and Rockies.
1t is these Irregularities that make
it possible for pitcher to curve his
baseball. OF course he knows how to
hold and throw 1t, but in passing
through the air the friction strikes upon
these ragged edges even though they
have to be magnified 10000 diameters
to be seen with the naked eye, and
cause such a pressure as to make the
ball leave its natural course.

What "Maru" Means.

Gently captured and released by Ger

tain Talleshma said that the word Is
the survival of Japanese custom
centuries old. He explained the or
igin as follows: "There are two opin-
ions as to how the custom originated.
One of the stories Is that in ancient
times the Japanese attached 'maru'
to the name of anything highly priced.
1t was first applied to a ships name
about 2,000 years ago, when the EN-
press lingo sent an expedition to
Korea. She added the word to the
name of the ship that transported the
troops to Korea. Ever since then
'Maru' has been part of the name of
every steamship or sailing vessel. 1t

SCOUTS AIDING THE NAVY,

Scouts of England, older boys special
" selected in order that there might
be available resource for use by the
navy department, should the occasion
warrant.
Special organizations were perfect
ed covering large part of the Allan
tic coast line and In each case the boy
enrolling secured special permission of
his parents. All of their work was
done privately.
The boys agreed to hold themselves
In readiness for any emergency call.
They also undertook to make careful
survey of the actual conditions in a
definitely prescribed territory so that
there might be available Information
as to the full resources of the COM
munity in case of disaster, including a
list of all houses suitable for hospital
purposes, names of all doctors, infor-
nation about all automobiles, motor
boats, etc. which might be of service.
In addition to this, in some of the
naval districts, boy scouts co-operated
In the early days of the war in locating
