Fanny J. Crosby. S. S. LESSON FOR NOVEMBER 25 Lesson Topic — The Prayers of Paul. Lesson Passage—Acts 20 : 36-38e Eph. 1:15, 16; 3:14-21 (Thanksgiving Lesson). Golden Text -1l Thess. 5:16-18. And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them U. (Acts 20:30. Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in. the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may •givee unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him; the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling and what is the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, .and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us -ward who believe, according to the work- ing of his mighty power (Eph. 1:15 19). For this cause I bow my knees un4' to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthen- ed with might by his spirit in the in- ner man; that Christ may dwell in ;;our hearts; that ye, being rooted end grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length and depth ansa 'height: and to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, ac- cording to the power that worketh in u:, unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus; through all ages, world without end. Amen. (Eph. 3:14-21). Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks; kr this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. (1 These. 5:1G-18). In a pamphlet on "Prayer" Robert Caldwell, F. R. G. S. says: How far the Apostle was cognizant of the de- tails of his Master's early life and practice is a question difficult to de- cide. Had he, however, been inti_ mately acquainted with, every minute incident in the life of his Lord, St. Paul could not have more perfectly reproduced in his own life the pray- erful habits of Jesus. The practice of the servant touches at all points. the practice of the Master. Both were men of unceasing pray- erfulness. Both carried the practice of prayer into the minutest details of a very busy life. Both sacrificed personal comfort that they might en- joy the unspeakable privilege of com-" minion with God. In both, their trust in God was constantly crystallizing itself into definite prayer. To pray without ceasing, as the a pined hie concerts 1 to do; is not a difficult matter when the heart is right towards God. Like his Lord, the Apostle prayed for his converts. He tells them and us that in every prayer of his he made mention of them —••• praying night and day exceedingly --spraying frequently and intensely—agonizing in prayer Without ceasing unto God for them. Not only did he pray for his imiiiiediate converts, but for all the sahits in all the churches. His were not narrow prayers, ,as ours too frequently are. What a study the prayers of the Apostle are! How far-reaching in their scope! ,Hfow a11 -embracing are. the subjects for which he prays ! His requests are frequently so dare ing that the very language staggers us. Of such is the prayer in to -day's, lesson. Were we to follow the example of the Apostle how full of prayer aur life would be! Were we to follow the exhortations of the Apostles how constantly should we .be found on our knees before God. It was his desire that men in everything and with thanksgiving should make their re- quests known unto God. It was his oft -repeated request that he himself —as an ambassador of Christ— should have the constant, earnest agonizing prayers of all who knew him. It 'was his desire that his fel- low -believers should uphold him in his work, so that his mouth might be opened to speak boldly the Word of God as he ought to speak ---that open doors might be found for, the preached Gospel—and that the Word, when preached, should in answer to prayer, be caused to have free course and be glorified. WORLD MIISSIIONS C1iatra stood waiting to drive his herd into the stable as they carne with the village herds from the jun gle. Gloom was written on every feature, and despair was in the droop of his frame. He watched the glow- ing west with apprehension. That sky meant frost. .Around the earner came the missionary from her eve- ning stroll after a strenuous day in ca ood evening, brother. The fields are beautiful." His face brightened at her greeting and rrihen clouded. "Look at that skyl Prost to -night. Alas; for the wheat and; .the ehanna! Our kabias are alniopt empty, for the brain, vilified the corn crop.

The gjo\v of the camp -fire fell upon circ]e of anxious faces of the eld- ers aid the carefree ones of the younger crowd. "It is cold.' Will there . be frost 'to -night?" sent all eyes to the clear, cold sky. A chows of, "Frost to -night and the wheat and channa will .go!" spoke their convic- tion. Taking up the Book and turning to Genesis 8.22, the missionary explain- ed the Harvest Convenant, Then turning to Psalm 66:18, she read: fPIf I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me." She then• called for humiliation Lend confession of sin: Heads were bowed, but only God knows what and by whom sins were • confessed. Quiet whisperings only Were heard below. In a few words the Convenant-Cry arose from one and another.. Thanksgiving, simpleand earnest, followed, and they, azeee to go. Stretching him- self,'$aliu Chatra remarked, "We al- ways have two nightsof frost.". "And we shall have two nights of prayer," was the prompt reply. Early next morning the missionary looked out of her tent door. Mar- veloius•! The sky was overcast with light fleecy clouds, and consequently, no frost. What a cry of thanksgiv- ing was sent up! Next evening a thankful group gathered about the camp fire. Again the answer came—no frost. They organized to snare rabbits; kestrele were seen hovering over, and diving into the wheat fields after the mice and when the wheat ripen- ed, a group was seen beating out a sheaf and examining the grains: "Not much damage," was the ver- dict. "`Merely coincidences," some. one will say. Maybe, but very soul -sat- isfying coincidences that give cause for thanksgiving and rejoicing to many poor folk. Some weeks later, the missionary" hastening to catch the motor, which would take her home, passed through beautiful wheat fields. But for that coincidence, those now heaping with thankful hearts would have been heavy -laden and downcast, and she praised God for His coincidence. Every editor an expert.

Pain is the symeitom of rheumatism that every :victim i' cognizes, and he generally -attributes the trouble -to cold, damp or changeable weather. But doctors know that thin blood is a marked characteristic of the. trouble. Trying to cure rheumatism while the blood remains thin and poor, is an im- possible task because there is nothing to build on. A tonie like Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills that enriches the blood and frees it from poisonous im- purities sdon banishes rheumatism from the system. :So long as the blood is 'maintained in a healthy condition the trouble will not return. This is not theory. It has been proved in hundreds of cases; here is one:—Mr. J. W. Rose, R.ft. No. 2, Albany, P.1;.I., says:—"For some years I was a great sufferer from rheumatism and al- though I tried a great many rem- edies, I did not get any permanent relief until after I took Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The trouble was located mostly in my shoulders, and at times was so had that my right arm was almost useless. Of course I suffered much pain and great inconvenience. My attention was directed to Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills through an adver- tisement in our newspaper, and I de- cided to try there. .I took the pills according to directions with the re- sult that the rheumatism has left me, and I have never had twinge of it since. If this meets the eye of any rheumatic sufferer my advice is try, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills at once. You can get these pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medi- cine Co., Brockville, Ont. P. 11 WORTH THE MONEY. As the old lady strolled through the park, two urchins confronted her. "I say, lady," said the taller of the two, "my brother does fine imitash- ings: Give 'im a penny and he'll im- itate a hen." . "Dear, dear!" smiled the old lady. "And what will he do—will he cackle ?" "No," replied the lad, with a look of contempt, "'e won't do no cheap imitashings o' that sort. 'E'il eat a worm!" t i Qui S 1/2 the Stomapa Illangerous Gas, Pain, Bloating and a feeling of .,ful'iness after eating are almost certain evidence of excessive hydro- chloric ,acid in the stomach. Too much acid irritates the delicate stomach lining, frequently causing chronic Gastritis and dangerous Ul- cers. Food ferments and sours, forming a gas that distends the stom- ach and often serigusly. affects the heart. It is genuine folly to neglect such a condition or to treat with artificial digestive aids that cannot neutralize the stomach acid. A better way is to get from your druggist some Biser- ated Magnesia (powder or tablets) and•take a little after each meal. 'Phis famous but simple and inexpensive stomach sweetener and anti -acid can be depended upon to prove its value in less bean five minutes. In most instances, relief comes instantly ! Pleasant and perfectly harmless to use—Bisurated Magnesia does give. wonderful relief in nine out of teh' eases. Ask .your Doctor or ]Druggist. MT. ETNA -THE OLDEST OP WORLD'S VOLCANOES • There is an eruptioti of Mount Etna about every Ave years, and that which semis noar to be subsiding will not be reckoned With the great overflow. Wihat causes the molten lava to gush from the crater or, what is even more likely, to force its way through new fissures in the side of the gigantic mountain is not clearly understood, but the inhabitants of the region long ago abandoned any hope that human ingenuity would find a means of stop- ping the outbreaks or rendering them harmless. So they accept them with fatalism when they come, and in be- tween tines eultiyate the rieh soil along the lower slopes. These are densely inhabited, and besides being covered with farms and orchards, they are the sites of numerous vil- lages and the large city of Catania. It is not the lava from the, constant- ly smoking crater that alarms the in- habitants, for this is so far distant from human habitation that the moles ten stone that ,pours from it cools` and becomes stagnant,,, over other beds pf lava that have been ejected in p M'ious eruptions. It is the sud- den appearance ofa new fissure in• the side of the s oiiiltain that eattses alarm : end wreaks., destruction, for there •is . 14s. tolling where ea leve `17i11 Inuovlorth nor in what direction. it 'win. flood. , .The lava 'iia been Ind t rant fr tea a101sntfid: bolt t ear to the 11411 „ ....

The present flow of lava is fully s mil wide, and has flowed in an east- southeasterlY direction, while the eruption 0± 1023 flowed northeast. No matter in what dire ion from the mountain people' live they are eq- ually exposed to the dangers of a new eruption sines nobody can tell at what spot it will break forth. T'he greatest of all Etna's eruptions oc- curred on March 11, 1669, when a fis- sure 12 miles long opened on the southeast side of the mountain about a mile from the peak. It flowed down to Catania and destroyed that city, efterwards flawing out to sea ani '•arming a promontory half a mile In the course of this terrible dis- a:large, it is estimated that not less than 780,000,0010 tans of rock were discharged and spread over an area of 9,500 acres, most of which had been productive land. Fourteen villages were overwheimecq in the three months that the eruption continued, and the celebrated cones known as the Monti 1ossi were created. 'In 1693 there was another memorable eruption, accompanied by an • earth- quake. From 60,000 to. 100,000 lives were lost; Catania was once more destroyed, and 40 other towns and villages wiped out. In 1755, there was a summit eruption which had un- usual complications since the lava melted the:, accumulated snow and ice and sent a devastating flood of water into the valley. In 1852-3 there wee an eruption which lasted for nine months and gushed forth a stream of; lava two miles wide. On this oc- casion little damage, was done. In 1169 an earthquake accompanied the eruption and laid the City of Catania in ruins, causing the death of 15,000 persons. This occurred on the vigil of the Feast of St. .Agatha, and the Cathedral of Catania was crowded with worshippers, all of whom, in- cluding the Bishoe and 44 Benedictine monks, perished. This shock caused a disastrous tidal wave. at Messina. Mount Etna is by far the oldest known vollcatnic mountain. It has been in eruption through the entire course of human history of which we ;have any record, and there are ac- counts of fourteen outbreaks of more than unusual severity before • the Christian era. . So venerable indeed is Etna that it provided the Greeks and Romans with many of their clas- sical myths. Its great riva(1 in fer- ocity, Vessvius, was not suspected of bei an active vote** until the yea 79 A.,D. Otherwise it too would `ha a figured in ancient folk lore. .Ac- cording to the Greek poets, Jupiiter buried Enceladus,- or Typhon beneath Etna, and the flames that gushed forth at intervals were supposed to proceed from the giant's. breath. W'hen he turned from one side to the other an earthquake resulted. Etna was also supposed to be the site of Vul- can's forge, where he prepared the thunderbolts of Jove with the aid of the Cyclopes. Here, according to a well-known legend, the philosopher. Empidocies, flung himself so that the manner of his death might not be known, and he would be accepted as a God. This plan was frustrated because an -erup- tion heaved up •one of his sandals, and he received no more renown than was fitting for rash philosophers who tried to deceive the public. Legend hath it too, that in the eruption of 477 B.C., two heroic youths, Ananias and Amphinomus, performed a deed which was referred to by Seneca and other ancient writers. When the lava. was about to overwhelm Catania, they carried their aged parents shoulder high, and the lava, in admiration for their exploit, . phrted in the middle so that they Vealkedk safely. It is true that modern sciece has correct- ed many of these ancient errors and misunderstandings, but that is -about So &r — and, yet sol rk. °°I Qmust call John by Liorti Distance and let him know 11 got here all right.
