DEATHS NEVER SINGLE

TT is rather common superstition
all over the country, especially in
the rural districts, that deaths never
come singly." In some sections they
say that if one person in a family dies
there will be three deaths in that fam
lily before the year is out. In other
sections they say two deaths. Those
who believe in the superstition do not

DEPARTING SUMMER

THE summer may be gone as

Yet, seems to mo, she fingers

And as she slowly moves along

I feel she sort of wistfully looks

And smiles on all about her quite

And maybe that is why Septem-

Rheumatism

IT'S G NE! That awful agony!
l. rheumatism can't stand the rich,
red blood that S. s. S. helps Nature
build.
But rheumatism will bring pain and
misery to your joints and muscles just
as long as you are without plenty of
rich, red blood in your system.
It's the red-blood-cells that S. S. S.
helps Nature build that drive out OF
your system the impurities that cause
rheumatism. And until you do build
up your blood to where it is pure and
rich and red, you simply can't get rid
OF rheumatism.
And S. S. S. is the thing. Red blood
conquers rheumatism. Everybody
knows that.
S. S. S. means millions of red-bIood-
cells-means health all
over. No more rheuma,
tism. Nights of rest q e
days of joy, filed with \AN04
the happiness of accom-
plishment made pos
sible by body brinful
Of red b1ooded life, energy and vitality.
That's what the end of rheumatism

the sooner will your batteries run

| There are two important reasons
why the current consumption OF

| The second reason lies in the fact

Sunday School Lesson

they were praying Rhoda heard a
knock and recognized the voice of the
distinguished apostle. Forgetting to
open the gate, she burst into the
meeting with the news that Peter was
without. They could not believe her,
for they had not expected such a
miraculous deliverance. When Peter
entered he convinced them that the
Lord had rescued him, urged them to
inform the other groups, so that
James, the pastor of the Jerusalem
Church, and the other brethren should
be Informed and comforted. Although
Peter departed to another place, they
were convinced that the gospel they
stood for was based on divine realities,
that God was with them and heard
their prayers, and that their perplexi-
ties were temporary"
According to tradition, Peter, who
recognized that he had been delivered
for service, went to Rome, although
the Scriptures are silent as to where
he went upon his departure. Later
we find him in Antioch, and after
Herod's miserable death the great
apostle resumed his labors in Jerusa-
lem. The manner Of the Kings death
produced a deep impression upon the
church, which saw in it the direct in.
tervention of God for its protection
ana the CndStlSenle0t OF It's enemies.
Josephus In his account agrees with
the record of Luke. Both see in his
death just punishment from Heaven
because Herod failed to reject the i'm
pious fiattery that the people extended
to him in worshiping him as a god
after his return to Caesarea.
A few days after the Kings return
from Jerusalem he was called upon to
arbitrate some difficulties that had
arisen between Tyre and Sidon and
to celebrate games in honor of the re.
covery of Claudius, the Emperor. He
appeared upon the second day Of the
games arrayed in a silver tunic, on
which the rays of the morning sun
shed dazzling brightness. He ex-
cited universal admiration, and the
flatterers sought to curry his favor by
calling him god. In that moment
he was smitten with a loathsome dis
ease. Eaten of worms. he died, ex-
claiming, Il, the god, am about to die.
Death has already seized him whom
men called immortal" Herod's death
ended for the moment the persecution
of the Church, for the word of God
grew and multiplied. The work that
had been hindered by persecution
commenced to grow as a result of the
complete victory of God that was
given to His followers in answer to
prayer. Praying Christians produce
miracles of grace every day, as the
prayers of the Jerusalem Church did
in securing the freedom of Peter.
