I IIlE CLINTON NEW ERA.
FROM EXPERIENCE.
Canada ought to be able • to give
United States a little.advice on the war
equipment business, like this;--
Don't take married then with fam-
ilies and leave the young and single
eligibles at Moine,
Don't let a man called Allison 'save
anything to do with your munition
sales.
Don't send a buyer to Brampton,
Ont., to pick up any painted horses,
Don't pamper to the votes of the
Germans for the next election.
Don't let a ballot look bigger than
the safety of the republic.
Don't let the Wives and families of
your soldiers follow them to Europe.
.Don't appoint any honorary colon,-
Don't
olon-Don't give commissions away, or
sell them. Make' every man start the
war game as a private.
Make sure that the rifles your men
get for service are not good for target
work only.
Make sure that you don't spend
millions for equipment that will be
scrapped before it ever comes into
use at the front.
If a man's not fit for active service,
be sure to find it out before he's been
in uniforms for a year,

TO LIGHT A FIRE.
Fill an old pail or tin can with wood
ashes and keep them saturated with
coal oil. When ready to light the
kitchen lire put two tablespoonfuls or
more on your kindling wood, and light
the ashes. They will burn sufficiently
long for the wood to ignite and there
fs not the slightest danger of an ex-
plosion.

supply him even with such things as

he gets an ample quantity, My own
London baker does not supply me
with anything like it' in quality or
taste, I also sampled the emergency
rations, the so-called iron rations, and
while they are ideal In their compact-
ness, I felt that I could live and light
a whole month or more on them, and
be none the worse for it.
i think with a shudder of the hard-
tack and canned meat on which I
was• fed while a volunteer in the
Spanish-American War. But I heard
that the ci ality of the canned meat
supplied by our American packers in
this war is everything that could he
desired. The way the British military
authorities have organized and are
providing for these millions of volun-
teer soldiers is beyond praise. The
American war department could learn
a great many things here. Especially
in the way of economy, for nothing is
wasted. The immense repair shops
at the British bases, where clothes,
boots, harness and everything up to
heavy guns are repaired are worth
travelling thousands of miles to see.
COUGH

Dage o s Dmsease.
Whooping Cough, although specially a
disease of childhood, is by no means con-
fined to that period but may occur at
any time of life. It is one of the most
dangerous diseases of infancy, and yearly
causes more deaths than scarlet fever,
typhoid or diphtheria, and is more
common in female than in male children.
Whooping Cough starts with sneezing,
watering of the eyes, irritation of the
throat, feverishness and cough. The
coughing attacks occur frequently but
are generally more severe at night.
On the first sign of a "whoop," Dr.

Lesson VIII, -First Quarter, For
Feb, 25, 1917.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES,
Text of the Lesson, John v, 1.1O -Mem-
ory Verses, 8, 9 -Golden' Text, John
ix, 4 -Commentary Prepared by Rev.
D. M. Stearns,
While the lesson assigned to us to.
day covers only fifteen verses, wo
must consider, as far as possible, the
whole of this wonderful chapter con-
cerning Him who is the fountain of
living waters and the only judge of
all mankind, These feasts were all
originally '`feasts of the Lord" (Lev.
xxiii, 2, 4, 44), but they had degenerat-
ed into mere religious formalities as
feasts of the- Jews, Jesus attended
them because there He found oppor-
tunities to teach and to heal, and it
was His custom to go everywhere
preaching the gospel of the kingdom
and healing all sickness and disease
(Matt. iv, 23). The scene of the heal-
ing of our lesson was at a pool in Jeru-
salem called Bethesda, which was by
the sheep market or, us in the margin
and the Revised Version, the sheep
gate. Bethesda means house of mers
cy, but mercy can only be found in
Him of whom the sheep gate is so sug-
gestive,
aegestive, the Lamb and the sheep 01
Isa. ilii, 6, 7, on whom all our iniqui-
ties were laid, the Lamb of God, who
taketh away sins. It is interesting to
note that the building of the wall by
Nehemiah began and ended at the
sheep gate (Nei. ill, 1, 32).
This pool, with its troubled waters,
was as useless for a really impotent
person as were the feasts of the Jews
to help any one, for he must needs be
a lively impotent ' who : would get in
first. The poor, hopeless impotent of
our lesson had his infirmity, thirty-
eight years, and we remember that the
infirmities of Israel in the wilderness
lasted just thirty-eight years(Deut.
14), and only the Lord .Himself could
and did deliver Israel. Without help
from any mortal man or 'without ever
touching the pool this poor impotent
was made whole, for surely the foun-
tain is better than the pool, and there
is none other who can do aught for the
really impotent, and such we all are,
for the whole world is guilty before
God, and there is not one thing that
we can do, not one step that we can
take toward the righteousness which
God requires.
We can only pseud our guilt and ut-
ter belpiessness, and then cornea from
Him the word of life and health, and
'me 'become justified freely by His
grace through the redemption that is in
Christ Jesus (Rom. ill, 19-24). As itis
Mated in verse 24 of our lesson chap-
ter, hearing Bids word and receiving

believed Moses ye would have believ-
ed me, for He wrote of me (verses
19-23, 80, 37, 43, 46). Xet this is the
man whom they sought to kill, accus-
ing Him of breaking their Sabbath and
of making Himself equal with God
One would think that His words and
IIis works would have convinced them
(verse 86). But when people allow
themselves to be blinded by the devil
he does his work very thoroughly.
When the truth is rejected God allows
lies and strong delusion to grasp the
heart (II Thess, ii, 0-12). One great
hindrance to believing God is the
temptation to seek honor from men
rather than from God only (verse 44),.
the desire to be held in esteems by our,
follows because of learning and schol-
arship, the unwillingness to bo wbollp
for God and seek in all things only Iris
approval. Testis Christ came In iris
Father's name seeking in all things to
glorify Him, and all Ills words and
works were the Father's through Slim.
But there is one coming in IIi>i own
mune. and it nano be soon, who will
exult himself aril whom 011 the svorld
will worship except those whose names
