There was 40 time to say any more,
for b now the wicked witch was
chanting her magic song and in an
other minute the handsome man and
his horse had become a pile Of stones.
The poor little black kitten was
now in deeper trouble than ever, for
she had fallen In love with the man
who had spoken the first kind words
she had heard in many a long day
and she wanted to save him.
That night when the old witch held
her wild witch dance she took her ket-
tie and the black cat TO the place
where she had changed the man and
horse into a pile of stones, instead Of
dancing by the door of her cave as she
nightly did.
When all was ready and the fire
was burning under her kettle the
wicked witch began to sing and the
black kitten. creeping close to her.
listened harder than ever to what she
said.
When the wild dance was over she
seemed to have forgotten the kitten
and, standing before the pile Of stones
she had newly made, she said in a
high pitched voice:
A prince you never shall appear,
Until these magic words you hear.
Then the black kitten heard the
witch saying softly to herself, al
debaron, Maldebaron, change" and
again she began her wild dance.
But the black kitten held the key
to the magic art the witch had guard
ed and she began to chant the song
that changed the poor victims into
stone and slower and slower the witch
danced until she fell a heap of stones
upon the ground.
Then, running to the stones that
had been the horse and rider, the
black kitten very softly whispered the
magic words she had heard the wicked
witch repeat and up from the ground
sprang the handsome man and the
horse, while beside them no longer
stood the black kitten but a pretty
blushing girl.
Before she went away with the
prince the pretty girl had given to all
the victims of the wicked witch their
forms again. Before they had ridden
to the edge of the forest the prince
had made her promise to be his wife
and told her she should be so happy
she would soc forget the wicked old
witch and all that happened Ia the
forest.

After Joseph was dead, there was a
change of dynasty (Exod. 1:8). The
new king, noting the rapid increase of
the Israelites, c0unseled the exercise of
prudence lest when war broke out they
join the enemy and fight against the
Egyptians. One of the methods to
curtail this increase was to enslave
the people. Failing in that, an edict
was issued that every male child
should be drowned. While the oppres-
sion OF Gods people was heading up,
God was providing IA ~deliverer. Moses.

the Burning Bush (Exod. 3:1-6).
1t was while keeping the flock of his
father-in-law in the desert that the
Lord appeared to Moses in the vision
of the burning bush. This bush, en-
veloped in flames, yet unconsumed,
symbolized the people of God en-
swathed in the very fire of God. or
God dwelling in the midst of an elect
people. Moses stepped aside to be-
hold this strange sight and was taught
the essential lesson of the proper ap-
proach to God. The Lord did not
leave him long in suspense. He told
him he was the God of his fathers, the
Covenant God. As soon as he knew it
was God speaking to him, he hid his
face.

realized his insufficiency for this task.
Moses did not refuse to go, but pied
his difficulty before the Lord. God
answered this difficulty by assuring
him that He would be with him. The
token of His presence would be His
worship with the people of Israel on
this mountain.
=. The Difficulty of the People to
Understand Moses Relationship to
God wv. 10, 14). Moses knew how I'M,
willing they were to acknowledge him
as their deliyerer 40 years before.
Since God reveals Himself under a new
name as He assumes a new relationship
to His people, Moses inquired as to
what that new relationship would be,
and His corresponding name. The
Lord promptly met this difficulty re-
vealing to him a name different in
many respects from all others previ-
ously given. This new name is, 81

The Toughest Old
UGH
Can Now Be Stopped

Lingering coughs - the kind that
hang on and hang on and rob a man
of his sleep-the kind that makes him
peeTish and all worn out.
Those are the breed Of coughs that
prove that common cough syrups are
about as useful as a bottle of ginger
pop.
The quickest and surest way to get
rid of a persistent cough is to take a
teaspoonful of Bronchuline Emulsion
four times a day.
It's made to stop the old-timers-the
tough ones-and it does it without any
loss of time
And, remember, there is no chloro-
form-no sugar-no dope in this grand
cough medicine. It's a prescription for
stubborn coughs and that's the kind it
speedily conquers.
For ordinary coughs one or two
doses is usually enough. H. J.. Dennis

Says His Prescription Has
Powerful Influence Over
Rheumatism

Nj. James H. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him helpless
and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
c~easeless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the accu
mulated impurities. commonly called
uric acid deposits, were dissolved in
the joints and muscles and expelled
from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and
finally compounded a prescription that
