HOW TIMES
HAVE CHANGED
Christian Science Monitor: —One
hundred and four years ago; at this
season, the War of 1812 was practi-
cally over. Peace was signed, at
Ghent, on the evening of Dec. 24,
1814; and then things moved, fast,
according to existing standards. On
December 26, one of the American
secretaries left Ghent for London, and
on Jan, 2, 1915, he left England for
New York, where he arrived' some time
In February, and his news was immed-
iately delivered to the citizens by print
ed handbills. Other cities, however,
had to remain in ignorance during the
time it would take a fast rider to urge
his galloping horse over the roads be-
tween them and New York. The tele-
graph was not yet invented, although
Joseph Glanvil, a Seventeenth Century
preacher with an interest in the possi-
bilities of invention, had told the Royal
Society that to confer at the distance
of the Indies, by sympathetic convey-
ances, may be as usual to future times
as to us in literary correspondence."
Glanvil, by the way, also told the Royal
Society that "to those who come after
us, it may be as ordinary to buy a pair
of wings to fly into the remotest re-
gions, as now a pair boots to ride a
journey."

And Waken Me—Unable to Resi
or Sleep, I Walked the Floor
in Nervous State — When
Specialists Failed 1 Found
a Cure.
This is the kind of cure that has
set Windsor people thinking and talk-
ing about Dr, Chase's Nerve Food,
Tne action of this food cure is so
radically different to the usual treat-
ments for the nerves that everybody
wants to try it. Gradually and cer-
tainly it nourishes the starved nerves
back to health and vigor and the bene-
fits obtained are both thorough and
lasting,
Mrs, M. Smithson, 27 Arthur street,
Windsor, Ont., writes: "I was suffer-
ing from nervous breakdown, which
was caused by a shock when fire
broke out in itIi* adjoining house. My
nerves were fit such a state that,..after
going th bed 1 could not get my nerves
quieted down sufficiently to go to
sleep." I used to get up and walk

person to speak to me or bother mo.
Any little noieo irritated and annoyed
me very much. I had consulted

during this time, but could not gain
relief. At last I tried Dr, Chase's
Nerve rood, and before long calld see
that this treatment was proving of
benefit. I am now feeling so much
bettor that I can go out on tho street
without any difficulty, can go across
the river and go about the same as
usual. I sleep well at night, and am
feeling morn like myself every dey.

Moses the Deliverer of Israel.
LESSON TEIXT--ExoclUe 3;1-12.
GOLDEN TEXT—Ancl Moses ver-
ily was faithful in all MS house.
Hebrews 3:5.
ADDITIONAL MATERIAL — Exo-
dus 3:13-4:17; Acts 7:17-36,
While the oppression of God's people
was heading up, i•n the providence of
God a deliverer was being prepared
to take up the task at the opportune
hour. Moses was first trained at his
mother's knee, then in Pharaoh's
court and -finally under CMS's vim -
mediate nand in the desert. The lat-
ter was an indispensable part of his
training. His learning in the wisdom
of the Egyptians was helpful, but
without the Immediate tutorship of
God he would have been a failure.
All who are used of God must spend
some time. in the retirement of his
Presence. • TWO notable examples are
Paul in Arabia and Jelin on Pattnos.
I. The Lord Speaks to Moses in the
Burning Bush (vv. 1-6 )..
It was while keeping the flock of
his father -In-law In the desert that
the Lord appeared to Moses. Had he
remained in Pharaoh's palace he
never could have had the vision of
the burning busb. This bush envelop-
ed in flames, yet unconsumed, sym-
bolized the people of God unswathed
in the very tire of (1od, or God dwell-
ing In the midst of an elect people.
Moses steps aside to behold this
strange sight, but must be taught the
essential lesson of the proper ap-
proach to God. We now can approach
God with boldness through Jesus
Christ (Hebrews 10.19). Our God is
a consuming fire. No evil can be per-
mitted in his presence (Joshua 7;
Acts 5), 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 be knew H. was God
who was speaking to him he bid his

II. Moses Commissioned as the
Deliverer of His People (3:7-10).
In the preamble of this commis-
sion God said to Moses: "I have seen
the affliction of my people." This Is
always true (Psalms 22:24; 34:4,0;
Isaiah 63:9). "I have heard their
cry." • Not a cry ever goes up from a
child of God unhemrd by him. "I
have come down to deliver them out
of the hand of the Egyptians." This
shows thet God is actively interested
id' the' cause of his people, He gra,
ciodsly obligates himself: (1) To de:.
theith out Of the hand's Of the
Eleyptianee"Egypeer4y con:sheered

unwilling they Were to'ackeoweedge
him as their deliverer feety'yeats'be-
fore. - Since God changes hie name as,
he assumes a new relationship to- his
people, Moses inquired as to what
that new relationshipswould be, and
his corresponding name, The Lord
promptly met this difficulty by show -
ink him a name differing in many
respects from all others • previously
given. This new name is "I Am."
This name is from the Hebrew verb
"to be" It indicates (1) God's self -
existence; (2) his self-sufficiency;
(3) his unchangeableness.
3. Unbelief on the Part or the
People (4:1). This difficulty the
Lord met by supplying him with cre-
dentials which could not be gainsaid.
Ile was given the power to perform
supernatural weeders (4:2).
4- Lack of Eloquence (4:10).
This difficulty the Lord met by pro-
viding an assistant in his brother
Aaron.
Self-denial when regularly kept
up and not only ineulged now and
then, out of laziness or partial affec-
tion, is one of the clearest tokens

"He will fight it all the same."
"Yes, but on rather different
grounds from what he first anticipat-
ed," and Mr. Whitney gave Merrick
an account of young Mainwaring's de-
ooaLttoforrnehye,
fection. "In my private opinion," con•
cluded has got aiptirNevtatrys
a
hard combination to. go against; they've
evidently got a strong case, splendid
legal talent, and plenty of money to
back it all. However, I'm Making a

"Yes," said Merrick, enigmatically,
"Barton& Barton are undoubtedly men
of great ability in their profession,
but that "clerk" of theirs who has
come over with the party," with pec-
uliar emphasis, "is the smartest man
in the whole erowd!"
"The clerk! why 1 thought he seem-
ed rather an insignificant sort of a
fellow; what do you know about him?"
For reply the detective only gave a
short, unpleasant laugh, and, touching
his cap, turned abruptly down another
.street.
'"Hold 0111" cried the attorney; "you
haven't told me anything about your-
self yet, What have you been doing?
and how long are you going to be in
town?"
"Al day or two, perhaps, possibly a
week; I cannot say,'
"How are you getting on?"
But the detective was lost in thought
and apparently did not 'hear lie ques-
tion. "I suppose' you reedof the
arrest of einewn; the coachman?. he re-
marked, abstraetedly, after a moment's
silence.

differently, ,then addect-duiekty, "There
is a sensation of some sort hi there;
see the crowd of reporters!"
There were standing on testreet cor-
ner, hear a 'large hotel„ and glancing
through the windows in the direction
indicated by the detective, Mr. Whit-
ney saw, es had' said, a crowd. of re -
Porters i31 the office and lobbies, some
writing, some talking excitedly, and
others coming and going. Just then
dne who was leaving the building pass -
them, and Merrick stopped him. •
"What is piing cm? What's the
excitenitt?"
"Suicide!" the young man replied,
hastily. "That woman who was mix-
ed up in the Mainwaring case has
sulcicied, by poison."
The attorney and the detective ex-
changed startled glances, then both
entered the hotel.
Chapter XXMI
FLOTSAM AND JETSAM
An hour later, the attorney and the
detective -reappeared, and, threading
their Wily through the crowd still
lingering about the hotel, walked'
rapidly down the street, arm in arm,
conversing in lo‘v tones. ,
"A case of suicide undoubtedly,"
said the attorney, "and scarcely to be

"Well, 1 could not have it go out,
of course; but for Illy part, 1 ant in-

the strongest manner kite testimony
already given."
"1 believe you may be right," said
the attorney, musingly; though It had
not occurred to Me,"
After e short pause Merrick con-
tented; "When 1 was first callect lo
leer Oaks, 1 suspected Some relation-
ship between that weman and the
secretary, as he WaS then called; there
was a marked reSeinblonce between
them; both had the eitine peculiar'
olive skin, while their features and
carriage tvere almost identical."
"Yes, I recall your mentioning the
likeness to me, and at the mune time
I was puzzled by the resemblance be-
tween him and Hugh Main warIng.
Well, I always said he was 11 mystery,
and no wonder!"
They had reached the club house
by this time, and, as Merrick declin-
ed Mr Whitney's invitation to entertain
both men remained outside for a few
moments. Once again, the attorney
endeavored to sound the detective re-
garding his work and the progress he
was making, but the latter suddenly
bedtime strangely uncommmunicative.
"My client Is going to charge Harold
Mainwaring with the murder," said the
attorney at last, •
Merrick laughed scornfully, 51111 for
the second time that evening wheeled
abruptly and turned down a side
street, leaving Mr. Whitney standing
upon the club -house steps, watching
the rapidly retreating figure with min-
gled vexation and amusement.
"Something has upset Merrick," he
soliloquized, as he finally turned to-
wards .the entrance; "who can he im-
agine is 'dogging' his tracks, as he
terms it? These detectives seem a -
both as jealous of thee- reputation as
we lawyers are supposed to be. Ralph
Mainwaring is going to engage "the
best legal talent that money can get!"
li'mi when he conies to settle, he may
find that my 'legal talent' will come
just as high as the best of them."
Could Mr., Whitney have been pre-
sent at a conference held that even-
ing 11 one of the private parlors of
the Waldorf, he might have had a bet-
ter understanding of the cause of
Merrick's perturbation,
Immediately upon returning to the
hotel, Harold Mainwaring had com-
municated to the English attorney and
to Mr. Scott the particulars of his in-
terview with Mrs. LaGrange. Mr.
Scott at once expressed his satisfac-
tion at the outcome, in that she had
rejected all offers of assistance ex-
cept upon her own terms.
"That is best, that is best just as
it is, he said, emphatically; "you do
met want to be hampered with any ob-
ligations she might impose upon you,
and as for ever recognizing or ack-
knowledging any relationship, it is
not to be thought of for one moment.
Your course was right, perfectly right.
But what was the statement of such
importance which she was to make?"
"That is just what 1 am coming to,"
the young man replied; and drawing
his chair closer to those of his com-
panions, he repeated in low tones the
secret instructed to him by Mrs. La
Grange. The faces of the two men
were a study as he ended his recital.
"Are you confident that she spoke
the truth?" questioned Mr. Barton
eagerly.
"I am positive that she did; she
seemed like one terror-stricken, and
said' that the horror of it had haunt-
ed her day and night."

instance for doubting her,"• Continents

HOW TO FIGHT
SPAN I SII FLUENZAI
isy DR. W, DOWFate.
Avoid (trowels, coughs and ocwerde,
but fear neither germs nor Germansi
Keep the system in good order, take
Plenty of exercise the fresh Air Ana
practice cleanliness. Remember a olean
mouth, a clean skin, and clean bowels
are a protecting armour against disease.
To keep the liver and bowels regular
and to carry away the poisons within,
it is best to take a vegetable pill ever
other day, made up of May•apple, glom,
jalap, and sugar-coated, to be had at
most drug stores, known as Dr. Pierce's
tm
Pleant Pellets. If there is a sudden
onset of what appears like a hard cold,
one shbuld go to bed, wrap warm, take
a hot rnustard foot -bath and drink copi-
ously of hot lemonetle. If pain developti
in head 'or back, ask the druggist for
Anuric (enti-uric) tablets. These will
flush the bladder and kidneys and carry
off poisonous germs. To control the
pains and aches take one 'Amnia tablet
every two hours, with frequent drinks of
lemonade. The pneumonia appears in
a most treacherous way, when the influ-
enza victim is apparently recovering and
anxious to leave his bed. In recovering
from a bad attack of influenza or pneu-,
monia the system should be built up
with a good herbal tonic, suoh as Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, made
without alcohol from the roots and barks
of American forest trees, or his Irontie
(iron tonie) tablets, which can be obs
tained at most drug storeseor send 10e
to Dr. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo;
N. Y., for trial package.
"Certainly; but it seemed to me
then too improbable."
"The improbable is, sometime, what
we must look for in cases like this,"
he replied; "McCabe should be put
on to this immediately, and we must
call Sutherland. I will summon him,
myself, at once,"and he left the room.
The foster -father and son, left for a;
few moments to themselves, had little
to say, but sat looking into each
other's faces with eyes full of meae-
ing, each understanding what was in
the other's heart. At last, as they
heard returning footsteps, the elder,
man spoke,—
'It was a good thing you went
there, my boy; come what may, yon
will never regret it"
"Never," the other replied witk
emphasis.
It seemed but few moments ere
hurried steps were heard along the
corridor, followd by a light, familiar,
knock, and Mr. Sutherand entered.
I "I recognized your voice at 'eke
phone, Mr. Barton," said the attor-
I ney, after greetings had been exchang-
ed, "and something in its tone, aside
from the general import of your
message, led me to believe that the
