Why ARE You
Always Tired?
Why do you have to go through days that
seetn endless—days when your whole body
seems listless and weary? Probably you will
be surprised when you learn the answer.
, That answer is very likely that your system
is not providing complete elimination of body
wastes. Don’t shake your head. Regularity
of habit doesn’t mean complete elimination. In
fact, incomplete elimination troubles thousands
who never suspect it because they are regular.
That is why headaches, indigestion, and drowsi
ness occur.
Sane, sensible habits, plus an occasional re
freshing, pleasant-tastmg glass of Andrews
Liver Salt will keep your system in fine tone.
Eat moderately, sleep sufficiently, take plenty
of fresh air and exercise, and once or twice each
week enjoy an invigorating glass of Andrews,
to help Nature keep your system thoroughly
clear of impurities.
Do these sensible things and you will keep
fit, Your appetite will bo good—and you will
escape the dreary dayB of physical depression.
Get Andrews Liver Salt from your druggist

rules against the common little ailments. Jn

And just at this time, with this
amazing prediction of Christ’s ser
vice before them, come the mother
of James and John with her two
sons, and makes an almost unbeliev
able request of the Lord: “Grant
that these my two sons may sit, the
one on thy right hand and the other
on the left, in Thy kingdom.”
How utterly she and her two sons,
evidently consenting to or desiring
her request, had missed their Lord’s
teaching on service! No wonder the
Lord answered: “Ye know not what
ye ask.” Were they willing to go
to the throne by the pathway He
was to follow—persecution and
death? Were they able to do so?
Lightly they answered: “We are
able.”
Then the Lord made a sobering
reply. “Ye shall drink! indeed of my
cup,” He told them—and they did;

CHRIST’S STANDARD OF'
GREATNESS
'Sunday, April 29.—Matt. 20: 1-34
Golden. Text
The Son of man came not to be
ministered unto, but to minister,
and to give I-Iis life a ransom for
many. (Matt. 20:28.)
Five great lessons in service stand
out in this chapter:
1. Assured surprises in the Lord’s
recognition of men’s services.
2. The supreme example of true
service.
3. Selfish desire for honor rebuk
ed.
4. Service the secret of greatness.
5. The Lord renders compassion
ate service.
The Lord told a parable of ‘’the
Kingdom of heaven.” I-Ie described
a householder or employer early in
the morning hiring laborers to wonki
in his vineyard, promising them the
usual day’s wage, a shilling, (Re
vised Version). Later in the morn
ing he saw others awaiting employ
ment, and engaged them, not spec
ifying any amount. Twice again,
and at still later hours, he did the
same, and about the eleventh hour”
repeated the experience, engaging
men whom no one had hired through
the day. To all except the first lot
he promised to pay “whatsoever is
right.”
When the day was over he told
his steward to pay oiff the men, “be
ginning from the last to the first.”
The eleventh hour men received a
shilling apiece, and so did all the
others. When the first lot were paid,
who had been engaged early in the
morning, they complained, pointing
out that the men who had worked
•only one hour were receiving the
same amount as themselves, “which
have borne the burden and heat of
the day.
“Friend,” answered the house
holder. “I do thee no wrong: Didst
not thou agree with me for a shill
ing? ... Is it not lawful for me
to do what I will with mine own? Is
tliine eyes evil, because I am good?”
The Lord added this comment on
the parable: “So the last shall be
first and the first last: for many be
-called, but few chosen.”
An obvious meaning of this , par
able is that, in the service of the
Lord Jesus Christ—and everything
should be done by every child of
God as “unto the Lord”—we should
be more interested in serving Him
faithfully than in what we get for
it. That the Lord will “pay” or re
ward those who serve Him faithful
ly is made very plain in the Scrip
tures. But the payment should not
have first, place in our interest;
rather the service. “Our Lord is
seeking to unfold a new world of
relationship to a new Master that
will be utterly different from all
the standards of the world.”
Now the Lord takes His twelve
disciples apart, on His wa yto Jeru
salem, and tells them plainly, yet
not for the first time, that He is to
be betrayed to the chief priests, be
condemned to death, mocked,
scourged, and crucified, and that
He shall rise again the third day.
There indeed is the supreme example
of true service: The Lord of Glory
hoard of this selfish request made
by two of their number, “they were
moved with indignation against the
two brethren.” Why? Only because
they would have liked the same
honor for themselves! “You selfish
thing,” said the little girl to her
little brother at the table, when he
helped himself to the largest cookie.
I “I wanted that for myself.”
: What tragic blemishes there are
, in the record of the Lord’s disciples
; Only a divine Saviour, Himself the
Son of God, could have wrought the
miraculous change in their lives and
their whole spirit and attitude, that
He brought to pass later by His
death, resurrection and the gift of
His Holy Spirit.
Quietly he rebuked them by tell
ing them of the secret of real great
ness they were all coveting for
for tliemsevles. Whosoever will be
great among you, let him be mini
ster (-or servant); and whosoever
will be chief among you, let him
be your servant.”
Service is the secret of greatness.
The greatest man who ever lived,
God as well as man, the Lord Jesus
Christ Himelf, proved this by what
He. did: “Even as the Son of man
came not to be ministered unto,
but to minister, and to give His
life a ransom for many.” It is some
times said ignorantly that Christ
said nothing about dying as the
sinner’s Substitute and Saviour, but
that this was added later by others
in their man-made theology. How
could the Lord have said it more
plainly than in the words that He
would “give His life a ransom for
many?”
On the way to Jerusalem, two
.blind men by the roadside cried out
to Him and the multitude rebuked
them for their boldness. The Lord
did not rebuke them. He called
them to Himselif and asked what
they wanted.
“Lord, that our eyes may be open
ed. So Jesus had compassion on
them, and touched their eyes; and
immediately their; eyes received
sight, and they followed him.” •
Only men whose eyes have been
opened spiritually by the Lord can
“follow Him.”

Was So Short of Breath
Could Not Lie Down to Sleep
Mrs. P. J. Chcrnoff, Shoreacres, B.C., writes:—
“I had been so troubled with shortness of breath I
could not lie down to sloop.
I could not do any hard work, or climb the stairs,
and had such nervous and smothering feelings I
became very weak.
I tried all kinds of medicine, but got no relief
until I had taken three boxes of Milburn’s H. & N.
Pills, and since then I have felt better in every way,”

NO INSURANCE—NO LICENSE
The problem of assuring financial compensation for those kill
ed or injured when run down by irresponsible motorcar drivers has
not been solved. Chief Jutsice Rose referred to it in a recent caste
in Toronto. H said; “It is high time that something was done to
make it impossible that a person injured or someone killed by the
negligence of a motorcar driver, should not have compensation for
themselves or for dependents.”

THE WINNER
The St. Thomas Times-Journal
Here is an incident that is mighty suggestive. A farine’’ ap
proached a blacksmith with the worn steel points of his tractox'
plow. The points in that condition were worthless. “Can you
point them for me?” inquired the farmer. “I never did such a
thing in my life,” was the reply. “Then I know of no blacksmith
who can do this work. My plow is going to be a costly affair unless
I can get some help.” “Leave them with me and I’ll see what I can
do,” replied the knight of the tongs and the hammer.
The result? The blacksmith gave himself no rest till he found
a way of turning this trick. There was no end of study and exper
imentation on his part, but he finally succeeded where others with
less vim had failed. And the rest of it? During the months when
his trade has a falling off he drives a brisk trade mending plow
points. One year his returns in this line netted him several hun
dred dollars.
This incident is but typical of what this mechanic is doing
every day. He is inventing his way forward. While many other’
mechanics are walking the streets this man is as busy as the pro
verbial nailer. “There’s a way to do every job that can be done at
the forge and it’s up to me to find it,” he tells you.
Will those whining for an artificial prosperity please take
notice?

A REAL NEED
Mr. F. E. Perney, superintendent of Hamilton schools, a man
with a reputation for knowing what he is talking about, says that
sufficient attention is not paid to the character of those attending
our secondary schools who are bent on teaching. Here are some of
his own words in this connection, as quoted in the St. Thomas
Times-Journal:
“Secondary schools in Ontario do not sufficiently emphasize
character qualities in their students, especially in those intending
to enter the teaching profession. Whether high school graduates
should be directed to the teaching profession depends more upon
their personal qualities than their ability to take high marks in
geometry, French and Latin,” lie said.
We wish to add that some attention should be paid to the men
tal qualities of those who are ’under discussion. The simple fact
is that a large number of those who secure entrance to our Normal
Schools are dumb bells, as the young folk decribe them. Yet these
incompetents obtain their certificates and are thus entitled to stulti
fy the minds of the pupils in the schools they manage to secure. If
Ontario is to advance she must look to hex’ schools and her school
masters. Further, if she is to advance rapidly she must pay a
great deal more attention to her bright pupils. Hitherto the pace
of the average class has been set by the progress of its lame ducks,
with the result that the bright boys and girls have turned to* mis
chief and then to crime simply because they have been left to idle
ness.

THE LATE SEASON
Farmers last winter when the weather was severe comforted
themselves with the thought that there would be an early spring.
In face of this hope we find the ground covered with snow and that
in whole counties of Ontario not a furrow has been turned noi* a
grain of seed sown. All of which indicates that there is no forecast
ing of the seasons and that the farmers find themselves dependent
for progress on factors over which they have no control. In fact
those who have a liking for such work estimate that the farmer’s’
'success depends for at least ninety pei' cent, upon factors that he
cannot order or direct.
It is just as well fox’ us in this jazzed u,p ago to get this well in
to our minds. For the last thirty oi' more years we have been drum
thumping and blowing on brass horns to such an extent that we
have largely ignored our brains, experience and oui’ consciences. We
have persuaded ourselves that victory lay with the side that mus
tered the most battalions. Worse still, we have thought, and have
taught oui’ children and encouraged our youth to believe that the
man who made the biggest bluff was the man who was surest to
win. We have told our girls that the way of attractiveness was by
the route of the lipstick and the rouge pot while good health had
nothing to do with personal appearance. Boys have been given the
idea that the man to be honored was the dead game sport rather
than the worker.
Well experience is continuing hei’ lessons. Just now we are
learning that we cannot control snow and frost and north winds.
The south wind does not blow at our request.nor does the sun give
us timely and needed heat just because we wish therefor. It is well
to think) about these things.

WHERE’S THE LACK
Just last week the citizens or a certain town woke up suddenly
and are not yet through rubbing their eyes. It seems that a num
ber of folk in that burg were not satisfied with the way the liquor
laws were being administered nor the way the anti-gambling laws
were being enforced. These folk did not resort to pulpit thunder
nor did they resort to passing pious resolutions nor were they con
tent with speaking sweetly to the police of one sort or another. No,
they hired men who knew how to do two things, namly to keep their
mouths shut and who knew how to get at facts. The result was
that the facts came out supported by evidence before a magistrate
who does not fear the face of .man and who simply cannot be wig
gled, cajoled nor brided nor otherwise bamboozled ox- divert
ed from doing his duty, the duty for which he is well paid for dis
charging. And now the folk, in that good town who ignored the law
and who have been caught make a sorry figure. They appear in
their true colors and the decent people don’t like the hues in which
these people appear.
Now why did not tho Dominion and the local and the provin
cial police do the work that other men could do but that the police
failed utterly, miserably and disgracefully to do?
The cause of the failure of the officers? Partly tho officers,
in some instances, may have been inefficient or they may have been
bribed or shooed off in one way or another. But we fear that the
“higher up” has called off the officers or have hushed up offences.
The moneyed interests are responsible to a far greater extent than
we know. But tho. cause of non-onforcomcnt of the laws that is
larger than all other causes put together is a low brand of public
opinion that will condone anything than can be got away with. Ill
fares tho and to destruction bound that treats offences against tho
public weal and against the laws of the land as if they were non
existent. While laws art' on tho statute book thej’- hould be en
forced. If the laws are bad they should be removed rather than
ignored, and there is a constitutional method of removing a bad law.
But our question persists, why do not the men appointed to enforce
our laws not get information that other men can get and which
they support up to the handle? There’s a very ugly phase to all
this.
