II, TRUE ANI) FALSE PROPHETS,
INTrtOut7CTION—Jeremiah lived in
the latterpartof the seventh century
B.C., a .little more than a hundred
years after Isaiah. The date of his
call to be a prophet is given in chap.
1: 1 -the thirteenth year of the reign
of Josiah, which would be B.C. 620.
His work continued until after the
fail of Jerusalem and the end of the
kingdom of Judah. in B.C. 586, cover
ing more than forty years. Like
Isaiah, he lived in a period of great
and tragic unrest and changer Isaiah

witnessed he rise of
Babylon, the second world empire; the
dedline and fall of Assyria, and the -
end of
he•end.of the kingdom of Judah in 'cap-
tivity and exile in -B.C., '585. With
their unconiproinising belief in the su-
premacy of the God of Isra i whose
purposes of good were being cease-
lessly worked out in'and through these
changes in human affairs, -and with
their zeal for righteousness, justice,
and clean living, they may truly, with
their fellow prophets be said to have
• bden raised up for such timeras these.
ill is due to them, as true servants of
God, that- Israels religion survived the
nations wreck and the rise and fall of
empires, and is a part of our rich in-
heritance of faith. The message of
the prophets is vital for the present
day.
I. THE CALL or Gob, Jeremiah 1: 1-10.
The first three verses of this chap-
ter give the date and historical setting
of the remarkable story which follows
:The times were unsettled and there
'were portents of canting stor i The
great loose-jointed Assyrian empire
e.as showing signs of weakness The
Chaldeans from the south, the Cedes
from the esst; the Scythian hordes
-from the north were all pressing in
Upon the territories which Assyria had
ruled for more than a hundred years.
It is not Judah only which the
,young prophet has in mincl when he
'hears the call of God to high service,
but the nations and the kingdoms. It
is not surprising that he remembers
his youth and distrusts his own pow-
ers. But with the call there comes the
,assurance of civine aid—"Be not
afraid ... for I am with thee." His
mission is to be destructive of what-
ever has proved itself evil in the na-
tions, and to build and to plant what
is good. Strength and steadfast cour-
age will be given for. bis difficult and
heroic task—he will be made "a de -
fenced city, and an iron pillar, and
brasen walls."
It is so in all genuine religious ex-
perience. The response to Gods' call
to service is certain to he followed
somehow by the comforting and en-
couraging assurance of his presence.
But the servant of God may have his
hours of doubt 'nd darkness as Jere-
miah had, Exceedingly sensitive to
the hostility whi,:h his messages some-
times aroused and to the unbelief with
which they were often received he was
tempted to question and to doubt, as
in 15: 10-11, 15-18: 20: 7-10. But the
memory of these first great promises
remained with him and enabled him to
overcome the temptation and to con-
tinue with heroic steadfasl•..ess and
courage upon .his difficult way, .15:
19-21; 20: 11.
II. TRUE ANC FALSE rnoe's ETS, 14:7-22.
There has been a severe drought
and the whole country is in mourning.
The cisterns and the wells are dry.
Both rich and poor are suffering, both
wild and domesticated beasts. The
prophet regards this calamity as a
sign of God's wrath because of the in-
iquities of the people. He, becomes
their intercessor, praying to God on
their behalf: First he pleads that the
Lord will work deliverance for his
own "name's score," to vindicate his
own honor, while, at the same time, he
admits the people's guilt. Godiis sure-
ly not a stranger who does net carol
Nor is he as a strong man stunned
with the magnitude of a calamity
which he is unable to resist or pre-
vent. Ile is Israel's God, "the Saviour
thereof in the time of trouble. We
are called by "hy name," Jeremiah
pleads; ,"leave us not:" But his pray-
er receives no comforting answer 'be-
cause of the waywardness of an un-
repentant people, a people who have
"loved to wander:" .It seems for the
moment as if prayer is useless, vs,
11, 12.
The false prophets havegiven false
encouragement; they have aroused
hopes. that Jeremiah is sure will not
be realized. Both here. (vs. 18-18)
and in'chap. 23,;he denounces these
men who `prophesy lies" in God's
name, "a lying •ision, and divination,
and a thing of nought, and the deceit
of their own heart." Such prophets
are not sent of God. In contrast one
cannot but recognize and honor the
transparent sincerity of Jeremiah,
true messenger of God's anger and
true lover of -his afflicted people, vs.
17-18. Again he pleads with God for
healing and for mercy, and that he
will do for his people of Judah that
which none of the vain idols of the
heathen can do—send rain upon the
dried-up corn fields and pastures. For,
he prays, `Art thou not he, 0 Lord
our God? therefore we will wait upon
thee; for thou hast made all these
things."

Article 6—A Synopsis
It any persons interested in reduc-
ing have not kept up with the former
articles they might start right, in now
in this performance of reducing. For
their benefit, we will repeat that to
reduce and stay reduced one must be
as natural about the process as pos-
sible.
To lose surplus fat an average. gen-'
orally of 1200 calories of food per daY
should be consumed for a person
whose normal weight is 150 lbs.
It is important to keep a calorie -note
book in which to mark down what you
have eaten for each meal to be added
up at the end of the day so you know
what you have been doing. If at the
end of the day you have eaten more
than 1200 calories you will need to
cit down on what you eat the next
day to make up for it. But eat three
meals, no matter how small, and take
n glass of skim milk or a cracker be-
fore retiring. ft is hard to sleep on
au empty stomach.
Do not reduce more than 2 lbs. per
week; sometimes be satisfied with
one. Reducing is a matter of months
not days or weeks.
Get weighed every week on the
sante scale. The principle involved,
so as not to suffer hunger pangs, is
this—eat quantities of low caloried
foods, eat sparingly of high caloried
foods, but eat some of all of the foods.
Your body needs them to keep well.
This can be done by learning tate
food values of all the foods, then
count your calories until you are nor-
mal. .A. good principle to remember
is: This number of calories eaten
must be decreased until it supplies
less than the amount of energy fuel
needed. This makes the body draw
on the surplus fat for its fuel and you.
reduce.
1200 calories per day for the average
person of 150 lbs. will reduce about 2
lbs. a week. More is not desirable.
Ten minute exercises should be
taken every morning, not strenuous
exercises, but they should be done
regularly followed by a cold or tepid
sponge bath.
If you start, stick to it. Don't give
up, for it cau be done. A few months
soon passes of the seeming rigid self-
oontroI, and you will find it is well
worth the trouble. Then the good
thing about it is the fact that atter you
have gamed normality it is easy to
adjust your weight as you wish and
your efforts have accomplished a per-
manent normal condition.
In general the lowest calorled foods
are the vegetables. 1st—the leafy
vegetables or those grown above the
s ground have the fewest calories,,so,it
is wise to always have one or more on

Trials of A P.I.
It is up to every Leader to see that
her girls are satisfied, for, if the are
discontented, there will always be
arguments. A difficult problem is
when there are two girls who dislike
each other. This should never be,
for the Guide Law 'says that "a Guide
is a friend to all and a, sister to every
other Guide...."
The best way to treat the girls who
are at loggerheads is to get them to-
gether and have a little chat, remind-
ing them of the fourth Guide Law
and that they are Guides and not a
pair oP babies.
One thing you must not do, and that
is give thein a long sermon. This

Clean Windows
Frequent window -cleaning well re-
pays the trouble taken. A soft chamois
leather wrung out in clear water to
wash the dirt off, followed by brisk
polishing with a soft cloth, is the fa-
vorite method. A rag moistened with
methylated spirit shortens the labor
when windows are very grimy. Para -
lin
fin does the work almost as quickly,
and will keep off flies.
Crumbled newspaper may be used to
give a finishing gloss, and will save
the washing of rags and leather. When
windows are steamy, try rubbing them
after they are cleaned, with a cloth
upon which a few drops of glycerine
have been sprinlcled. Finish with a
dry cloth and a brilliant gloss that re-
sists dampness will be the result..
It is also well to remember that win-
dow frames need constant cleaning.
Sooty particles that settle on the
framework cau be removed with a
clean, dry cloth, preferably flannel. At
least once a week the dusting should
be followed by a thorough, cleansing
with soap and water,

German Inns for Youth
"For the youth of Germany has
awakened, and, phoeuix-like, has
risen from the purging fires of the
years of slaughter, determined to seeks
health in body and mind from the
country and the sun. German youth
has hit the trail, and, bronzed and
happy, has done the trick. With
characteristic thoroughness and courr
age it has organized itself into a
movement Hundreds of thousands
strong and made for itself that for
which its English brothers and sisters
yearn.
"The Reichsverband fur Deutsche
Su gen dherhergen (Hilchenbach in.
Westfalen, Germany, from which all
particulars and applications for mem-
bership can be obtained by sending a
stamped and addressed envelope) has ,
for its aims the encouragement of
out -door life and the fullest use of
sunlight for the young people of Ger-
many. Realizing that what young
people need is simple shelter that
must, while being clean and comfort•
able, be so cheap that no young per,
son need be debarred, this organize
tion has provided hundreds of 'jugen,
dherbergen,'or youth -shelters. To ob.
tain the right to use these, people
under the age of twenty can join the
movement, almost free of charge, and
pay for a night's lodging some small
fee, usually three -pence or sixpence.
"No service is provided, although
there is a `housefather' or some re-
sponsible person, in charge of each
hostel, sometimes it is possible to get .
coffee, bread, butter and soup, but not
always while facilities for cooking
simple meals are provided. There is
usually a day -room, heated for the win-
ter, and sleeping rooms for both sexes,
These are furnished with bed -bunks
and blankets. Sweeping the rooms
after use making beds and suchlike
tasks are the bounders duty of those '.
who use the shelters.
"People over twenty can also be-
come members of the Society upon
payment of a membership_ fee, and
they can use the shelters, at a higher '
rate, but they must always give way,
if need be, to those under twenty—
for whom, of course, the shelters are
primarily intended. These shelters
cater for walkers and for those •chil.

the usual prices charged at inns, or
