LESSON FOR SEPTEMBER 28 Lesson Topic—Review: The Great- ness of the Godfearing. Golden Text—Psalm 111:10. July 6th—Abraham. —Genesis 12:1-3; 13:7-12; Hebrews 11:8-10. —Hebrews 11:8. In the life of Abram we find the outline of the providential system under which we live to -day. As God calls and we respond so do we live our lives in accordance with the will of God. It is in Him we live, and move, and have our being. July 13th—Jacob. —Genesis 25:29-34; 28:18-22; 29: 18-20; 33:1-4, 18. —Matthew 16:26. Jacob's underhand nature was seen by his treatment of his brother. Twice he got the better of him but was forced to leave home and coun- try. Gad met him as he fled and showed him there was One he could not flee from. Years after as he re- turned • home he had to be taught an• other lesson—the need of a humble spirit. July 20th—Moses. —Exodus 3:1-12. —Hebrews 11:27. While busily engaged at his hum- ble task of keeping the sheep, 3loses was attracted by an unusual sight— a burning bush caught his eye and he turned aside to inestigate—he saw, he heard a voice and listening, re- ceived a call to higher service. He hesitated, feeling his unfitness, but received assurance from God that he would not attempt the task alone. "Certainly I will be with Thee." July 27th—Deborah. —Judges 4:1-10. —Isaiah 35:4. Deborah, the prophetess, belam the Judge of the Israelites and thei deliverer from the oppressor—th Canaanitish King who for twent years had laid a cruel hand upon th people. She and Barak lead th army against Sisera and prevail and freed the people. August 3rd—Naomi and Ruth. —Ruth 1:6-10, 14-22. —Acts 17:26. In this lesson we have an exampl of a woman makins a great decisio for the sake of another whom sh loves. The decision entails) leavin home and kindred and going into far country never to return. In th end the gain was far greater tha the less. August 10th—Hannah. —1 Samuel 1:9-18, 24-28, 2:19. —Proverbs 1:8. Three things are marked about Hannah's prayer. It was unspoken; it was commended by the priest without his knowing its intent; it was answered in her heart first. She prayed for a son—the great Samuel whom she in due time took to the sanctuary and dedicated him to God's service thus becoming a great exam- ple to all mothers. August 17th—Saul. —I Samuel 0:15-17, 25-27: 10:1 ; 19:9-11; 31:1-4. —I Cor. 10:12. The Israelitish nation desired a king and God chose through Samuel a young man well filled by natural gifts and physical appearance to be the ideal of the people He was appointed King but in time his own will became more to him than G4ssi's and he declined in character and in power. August 24th—Jonathan and David. —1 Samuel 18:1-4; 20:14-17, 32-34, 41, 42; 2 Samuel 1:25-27. —Proverbs 18-24. At the very first meeting between es these two men the oul of one went out to. that of the other ,and there never after was any cleavage be- tween them. Their friendship stood the test of trial and sorrow. It was indeed until death do us part. August 31st—Amos. —Amos 1:1; 7:10-15; 2:11, 12 ; 3:7-8. —Isiah 6:8. The prophet Amos was trained as were other great men of the Bible in much solitude. When called of God it was to a work of reformation. He denounced the evil that had arisen in the nation, in society and in indivi- dual life and tried to arouse all to a better condition. They had forsaken the God of their fathers and the pro- phet cried against tlieem. TIIE WED • OSJTOE go et- any Past 40. Seven Out of Ten Are Victims But Writer Tells How "Uratabs" Bring Swift, Amazing Relief With Renewed Vital Force. "No one knows better than I, tha horror of joyless days and sleepless nights. There have been ernes when I felt hopeless and helpless --and when my weakness caused me the. most in- tense humiliation. Only those who have gone through such tortures can possibly realize my great eatisfaction when Dr. Soutleworth's URATA'BS brought me quick relief. URATASS are truly wonderful, and I give them full praise." 'Such amazing evidence serves as convincing proof of the power of URATABS to relieve those distressing ailments so often a handi- cap to those in middle life. Overworked, sluggish Kidneys, and Bladder Weakness, bring on so many distressing ailments which so often lead to serious diseases that every sufferer from Lameness, Pains in back and down through groins, scanty but frequent urination, "Getting -up - nights," Nervous Irritability and Lack of Fore—should try the amaz- ing value of Dr. Southworth's URA.- TABS at once! Any good druggist will supply you on a guarantee of satisfaction or money back. AUTHOR OF AUNT HET PRINTER AND EDITOR Years ago we came across a poem whose refrain was -God loves the man who makes LID laugh," written as we infer, not by one of those men. The men who can make us laugh are much more righly regarded and correspond- ingly compensated than the man who makes us think; but now and again in one man the two gifts are combin- ed, and to them go the rarest rewards. These are the true humorists. We have said often enough that humor and wisdom are allied; that is as im- possible to have humor without wis- dom as it is to have music without harmony. The humorist is much more than a wisecracker: in fact there are few wisecrackers who are humorists and few real humorists who make a practice of turning off such bright sayings as are to he read every mern- ing in front of the oil stations. Peo- ple are naturally interested in those e men who day after day and year af- r ter 3 -ear provide them with those lit- tle smiles which are a far more val- ued tribute than :he occasional gut'- Fontaine Fex and Robert Quil- len are both humorists. In addition, Mr. Fox is, in our opinion, a genius. But it is of Mr. Quillen that we have to speak. He is the outhor of Aunt Het, and also, though here we are but guessing. of Poor Pa. Be- tween the two they provide the so- called Morning Argument. Our per e sanal admiration for Aunt Het is con siderably less than it is for the skip - a per of the Teonerville Trolley, Mr. e Bang and the rest of the Toonerville folks, but nevertheless she is regard- ed as a popular and valuable feature of the paper and of several hurdre, other papers. too. At least, she is no wisecracker. She is a kind of fe- male David Harum, a homely, some what vulgar and quite disillusioned married woman who has a clear cold eye to turn on the human comedy. It is life that Aunt Het regards. She is beyond vanities and pretensiureev en to herself. In a word, she is a philosopher. and if she is a shade re- petitious, we beg to remind you .tha she is a married woman, living in a small town. Unquestionably she is the most agreeable woman .in .that town to live with. By a wide margin she escapes being a bore. Robert Quillen, the creator of Aunt Het, was recently the subject of a bio- graphical sketch in Holland's, a mag- azine designed to instruct and enter- tain the people of the Southern States, For Mr. Quillen is a southernee.. He lives in a little town called Fountain Inn, South Carolina, and there he gets out a little weekly paper with the as- sistance of a printer. He was edit- ing the paper when the attention of editors in other parts of the United States was drawn to his ability to write humorous paragraphs, and con- tinue to produce the paper despite the fact that his paragraphs and oth- er features are published in hundreds of American papers and magaziues. He is undoubtedly a famous man. Will Rogers reads his stuff and says of him: "You all know him. He is the fellow that writes , those little short sayings that make up in thought what the long ones lack in sense. He is a wonder." We'll say he is a won- der after reading his daily chores, which include an editorial, 21 para- graphs. in addition to Aunt Het and another character called Willie Willis, wibh a longer Aunt 'Hlet for Sundays, and his weekly paper in addition. Nothing is said here about Poor Pa, but our conviction that he writes it is unshaken. Robert Quillen is a product of the South and West. His father was a September 7th—Josiah. —2 Kings 22:1, 2, 8; 23:1-3, 21-25. —Psalm 119:105. When but a child Josiah turned to seek after God. He put his religion into practice by purging the nation of its idols and restoring the Temple. The finding of the original roll of the Law of Moses was the beginning of a revival of the celebrating of the pass- oreer and the renewing of a Covenant with God. September 14th—Jeremiah. —Jeremiah 1:4-10; 31:27-34. —,-Romans 14:12. In teeday's lesson is an account of Jeeemiah's can to the office of a pro- phet; the promise of God's presence going with him giving him the mes- sage of God to the people and the assurance that He would make a new covenant—.a cove-nant ,of grace which in gospel times would reach unto all the people.

North a Ireland man whose family used to be Macs, and his mother was of French stock. Robert was born in Manses, where his father was first a school teacher and later 13, newspaper editor and farmer. It was in , his father's newspaper offiee that he got his first knowledge of the trade that he was later to follow as journeyman printer. He knocked about the world for some years, and finally went to Fountain Inn to establish a weekly newspaper. Then he went west again, but returned to Fountain Inn and for some years was indistinguishable from any one of ten thousand weekly news- paper editors in the United States. For ten years it as been said he wrote stuff that no newspaper editor wanted and that no paper but his own would print. Then the tide turn- ed, and since then he has not been able to write enough stuff fol. the hundreds of editors who clamor for it., His first reputation outside Foun- tain Inn was made, by writing para- graphs for the Greenville Piedment. They were bright and humorous and original. They attracted the atten- tion of the clipping editor for the Lit- erary Digest, who helped himself copiously to them, and gave the Pied- m6nt wide publicity. They were not- ed by the editor of the Saturday Ev- ening Post, who asked Mr. Quillen to contribute to his paper, which he did for a year or so. He was next in- vited to Baltimore to write para- graphs for the, Sun, one of the best edited papers in the United States, but he could net accept because he did not want to leave Fountain Inn. By this time others were shouting for his stuff, and he began to syndicate it with the results already noted. So Mr. Quillen has, reached fame and affluence, and we are free to say that if he writes twenty-one paragraphs a day and ten of them are really good that he has deserved them and con- tinues to work hard for them. THE ANAEMIC GIRL Who Has Lost Her Charm and Beauty. "She seems to be losing her looks." This remark is often heard about girls who were once noted for their spark- ling eyes, their rosy cheeks and their vitality. The cause is not far to seek—they have become anaemic; that accounts for the pallor and the loss of charm. The anaemic girl, if she neglects her health, may be a sufferer all her life. Take heed, you pale, anaemic girls. Plenty of fresh air, nourishing food and rest will help you, but what you need most is good blood. Those wretched headaches; that fickle appe- tite arid those terrible heart palpita- tions can only be banished if the blood is rich, red ared pure. Good blood—the kind that brings good health is created by Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills. The whole mission of these Pills is to build rich, red, health -giving blood. The Pills are sold by all dealers in medicine or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. FORTUNES IN ALIMONY I'AID AT HOLLYWOOD Some anonymous humorist has call- ed Hollywood the Garden of Allah (money). It has won its name be- cause divorces seem to be commoner in the screen world than elsewhere and because money is also more plen- tiful. Why they are commoner and why the screen stars are generally rich do pot require explanation, nor is there space here for a consideration of one of the greatest of American rackets, namely the collection of ali- mony. We infer that the laws of California do not make any bigoted distinction between a woman who is found to have broken her marriage vows and is therefore liable to divorce and an undetected woman of whom her husband has merely tired and who seeks to end the legal bond that unites them. In either case the judge who dissolves the union is generally pretty liberal in his views about alimony. He does not commonly consider the mor- al right of the woman to alimony, nor the fact that the husband's fortune may have been acquired wholly in consequence of his own industry and ability. He merely considers how much the husband has and how much it will take for the divorced wife to live in the stele to which she has been accustomed to her indulgent hut hand. This, in addition to portly counsel fees and other expenses, is then awarded her and it is the busi- ness of the husband to dig it up. If he happens to fall on evil days, that is merely his individual hard luck which it would be unreasonable to ex- pect his former wife to share. He either pays or he goes to jail •;r es- capes to some more civilized country. The other day, according to a des- patch to the New York World by A. L. Wooldridge, Charlie Chaplin sat at a desk in his studio and gazed at a little slip of yellow paper. It re- minded him of a much more serious slip, to wit his falling in love with Lita Grey. It was a cheque made out to her for the sum of $1150,000, and represented the residue of a cash set- tlement of $626000 which she wrung out of him. For two more years he will be required to pay her $1,000 a month, after which he will establish for her a trust fund of $200,000 and the slate will be wiped clean. He will not owe her any more ,money, Miss Grey was his wife for less than two years, and that idyll will have cost him $950,000 in addition to the money he lavished on her while they were husband and wife. It proved a much costlier experiment lihan his marriage with Mildred Harris, for he had as pay his first wife only $107,000 in full set- tlement. Miss [Greys lawyers and co-urt costs represent $136,000 which is included in the amount Chaplin has paid her. Ms two reatrimenial ad- ventures will have cost the comedian mitre than a mill/4n &Mars.

But he still has his horse. Adolphe Men - jou, another screen idol, has also fin- ished paying his first wife, Kathryn, $67,500 at the rate of $650 a week, but the divorce cost him an addition- al $100,000. John Gilbert has also completed his 'chore by which Leatrice Joy benefits to the extent of $156,000 but he must. continue to pay $2,600 a year until their &lid is 18 years old. It will be two years before Bernard P. Fineman can really for- get Evelyn Brant, whomhe married in New York in 1922. They separat- ed three years later, and in 1927 she brought suit for divorce. Under the terms of settlement Fineman agreed to pay her $200. a week far five years. Well might Miss Brent exclaim, "Such a Fineman!" She is now married a- gain. Five years ago Ronald Cole- man was astonished to meet in a Hollywood theatre his wife, 'Thelma, -whom he had supposed to be in Italy. He feared the worst and was nut dis- appointed. A suit was. begun and a claim madel for ha -IV -his property and an allowance of $1,000 a month. Coleman continues to pay, although the amount is not known, Carey A. Wilson, a widely known scenario writer, was practically dis- possessed By a court decision in fever of his wife Nancy. He was ordered to hand over to her his home in Bene- dict Canyon, which cost him more than $100,000; $500 a month alimony for a year, an $18,000 automobile and an additional $250 a month for the support of his two children. All he had left was an equity valued at $20,000 in a piece of real estate and his clothes. He begins life anew. "Ukelele Ike" as he is known to radio udiences is in private life the Mr. Clifford Edwards who made a settle- ment of $104,000 op his wife when they separated last year. In this settlement, she promised to conduct herself properly, but he says that alio has not done so. When Mr. wards, seeking $250 a week alimony, told of his earnings as a singer he remarked: "If my wife thinks my songs are so valuable I'll sing her one or two for alimony." It is the contention of divorcees in Hollywood that they require $30,000 a year to live in the style and clignity befitting their position, and recently Mrs. Christine Aaronson, wife of the orchestra leader, listed as monthly necessaries: Rent, $200; tips, $50; cook and maid $100; laundry, .$25; dry cleaning, $50; food, $300; clothing, $750; entertain- ment at home and clubs, $150; auto- mobile and chauffeur, $200; estimated doctors bill', $150; massages, $501; personal care, hair, nails, Facials, $25. Total, $2,050. Not long ago Lloyd Hamilton was in court to ex- plain why he had not kept up his payments, and was in fact $7,500 in debt to his first wife, One the same day in another court his second wife was suing for divorce and was p‘aci- fied with $1,250 in cash. Al St. John was in jall last year because he had been negligent in his alimony pay- ments. The judge said that he would remain there for the rest of his nat- ural life if he did not satisfy the judgment of the court. Hoot Gib- son will he naying his first wife $150 a week until the summer of 1933, to make a totalof $30,000. He is also bound to carry a life insurance policy of $100,000 for the benefit of his daughter, aged six. A TRUE FABLE There was once a every old-fashion- ed man who hopefully relied on a let- ter to bear important news. It miss- ed its intended receiver and sat for two weeks on an office desk. When the old-fashioned man discovered this, he was extremely annoyed—with him- self. He made a solemn vow to there- after use the Long Distance telephone.
