Yes, undoubtedly. For the removal of
disease, better scientific instruments
are needed. For the removal of GER
tain domestic difficulties, better hous-
ing accommodations are needed. For
the removal of industrial friction, a
better economic system is needed For
the removal of international strife, a
new world organization is needed. A
world that has been organized for war
must be organized for peace. For the
rebuilding of the world better instru-

only you and 1 and all our neighbors
would persistently cultivate the Christ

KNEW HOLY LAND GEOGRAPHY
Insurance Man Could Do More Than
Guess at the Birthplace of
His Acquaintance.

An insurance man Of Indianapolis,
who is also a Biblical student, was
recently making his usual weekly
calls in Irvington, and stopped at a
residence to inquire of the young
woman at the door about the birth
place of her mother.
She said that it was the same
name Of town mentioned in the
Bible.
"Was it jerusalem" he asked.
"No, but 1 am sure it was town
near there" she said.
"Well, them" the man replied, sit
must have been Antioch"
So in the evening when the mother
returned home from social function
the daughter related the conversation
that had taken place when the in
surance man called.

WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands of women have kidney and
bladder trouble and never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
Ii the kidneys are not in healthy
condition, they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.
Don't delay starting treatment. DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root, physicians pre-
scription, obtained at any drug store, may
be just the remedy needed to overcome
such conditions.
Get medium or large size bottle inn
mediately from any drug store.
However, if you wish first to test this

We need to perpetuate the Christ
mas spirit in our homes.
1t is a solemn moment when two
human lives are united for better, for
worse, for richer, for poorer, in sick
ness and in health, till death do them
part. As Jane WEIGH Carlyle once
said, "If ever one is to pray, if ever
one is to feel grave, if ever one is to
shrink from vain show and babble, it
is just on the occasion when two hui
man beings bind themselves together
till death do them part"
There is nothing that more nearly
resembles the heaven of our dreams
than does happy home. Is there any
thing that so surely suggests the hell
of our secret dread as does an IN
happy home?
What is needed to build a home?
Money is needed but how much more
than money! Money can build a
heuse-a wonderful and wonderfully
furnished house. Only love can build
a home.

"MISSING" MAN WAS CONVICT
Woman Learns Her Husband Had
Served Prison Sentence

Many people, doubtless, disappear"
for reasons of their own. Debt,
crime or some other hidden page In
their apparently blameless lives may
be the real reason for their going.
Little did the wife of a Manchester
man know into what terrible entangle-
ment her husband had got ten years
before. He was thought to be a re-
spectacle merchant; his home life was
happy and blameless.
One day he went out to buy news
paper and returned no more.
For years his wife mourned him as
dead, until one day during the war ba
came back. He was now a soldier, but
his disappearance was explained by
the fact that, under another name and
in another town, he had been carry
ing on a fraudulent stock and share
office-a ''bucket-shop"-and had been
arrested and sentenced to long term.
He was released during the war, and
while serving in France had thought
of the once happy wife he had so
misled. Hence his sudden reappear.

leaving the fangs intact, but only ca

The public thinks the fangs have been

SClOuS OF JHe ISdlllS anu ShOAs Va -
spiritual world.
Christmas is the time when we are
conscious Of an unusual desire to be
kind. One day every year the world
suddenly becomes different. Physical
ly speaking, it is the same world. The
sky is the same. The streets are the
same The DEMONSTRATING touch
of holly here and there-are the same.
But you and / and our neighb0rs are
different. We are more just in our
judgments, more thoughtful in our at
tention, more unselfish, more kind.
1t is probably true that these sea-
sons of the soul, however fleeing,
leave their mark We are, perhaps, a
bit more patriotic than we would be
were it not for the annual observance
of Memorial day; bit more con-
sciously grateful than we would be
of Thanksgiving day; bit more re-
ligiOus than we wotlld be were it not
for the recognition of Lent and the
observance of Easter day. And one
would like to believe that we are a
bit more kind than we would be were
it not for the observance of Christ
mas.
The very approach of Christmas has
certain noticeable psychological eff
fects. In 1914 it resulted in a tenn
porary cessation of hostilities. On that
first war Christmas the booming guns
gave way to Christmas carols, sung in
three languages, as British and French
and German soldiers fraternized be-
tween the lines. In 1918, as the day
drew near which would commemorate
the birth of the Prince of Peace, a
war-weary world dared to hope that
foundations would be laid for endur-
ing peace. The heart of the world is
wrung by the suffering of China, the
tragedy of Armenia, and the pitiful
pleas of the starving children of CEN
trail Europe. Is there any man any
where, not a degenerate, who is not
conscious of a desire to diminish by
ever so little the worlds distress?

We need to perpetuate the spirit of
Christmas in international relation
ships.
The nations of Christendam have
been motived far more by Nietzsche's
will to power than by Jesus will to
serve. Their conception of greatness
has been a pagan, not Christian
conception. The great nation has been
thought of as nation able to lord it
over other nations, not as nation
eager to serve other nations. The
proud symbols of the Western world
have been swords and scepters, not
basins and towels. But
''Le all our po1np of yesterday
Is one with Nineveh and Tyrew
Surely the meaning of this present
hour is clear: Nations must do unto
others as they would have other ma
lions do unto them. Nations must
enter into the worlds life not merely
to get something, but to give some
thing, and, in some international as
ISOLATION, even to risk something in
the interest of world justice and world
peace.
For the first time in history the ma
tons of the world are looking con-
sciously into the eyes of Jesus and
know it to be true that He alone has
the secret of life.
