The Bible as a storehouse of texts
has been in familiar use for many gen-
erations. The fact that it was so used
has made it a book that repelled many
Intelligent men and women, who
wrongly adjudged the book unworthy
of notice. In the last generation there
have been many highly educated peo-
ple who would not be able to under-
stand a reference to a Bible story.
At the centennial celebration in
Philadelphia a picture entitled “The
Sons of Rizpah" attracted great num-
bers of people, who were eager to read
the story, of which they were entirely
ignorant. The tragedy spoke for itself
in the painting;«but it had never at-
tracted them in the book.
Professor Swing of Chicago told me
that* when Dr. Parker of London gave,
a lecture in Chicago he told the story
of “The Prodigal Son," and turned the
end of it into a joke. He described the
descent of the wayward boy from one
stage of poverty to another. At first
he pawned his cloak, then his coat, then
his last undergarment, then he came
to himself. The pun was a poor one.
and possibly some of our readers will
not understand it. The record is that
when he came to himself he said. “I
will arise and go to my father." Rro-
pessor Swing said that after the lec-
tare a distinguished lawyer asked him
what the story was to which Dr. Park-
er referred, and why did the people
laugh.
__Of late a new use has been found for
the Bible as n 'storehouse of passages
applicable to present conditions and
persona Without knowing much about
them, the general public has become
accustomed to read allusions to the
cave of Adullam, the warnings of the
prophet Ezekiel and the battle of Ar-
mageddon. There have been many
other passages of biblical events used
to point a political moral and adorn a
speech.
An amusing instance ot a double-
ender of a quotation came in a con-
gressional discussion of the policy- of
Chinese exclusion. Senator G. F. Hoar
advocated a generous hospitality, and
quoted in a loose way a passage from
the Acts of Apostles. He said. "God
hath made of one blood all nations of
men to dwell on all the face of the
earth”; here he stopped, and an alert
opponent immediately asked. "Why
does not the honorable gentleman quote

ing the period of their assocatlon

dict in Much Ado About Nothing. Mal-

Merchant of Venice. An enumeration
of these few ports show only too well
what Mr. Kellerd has accomplished in
his chosen field. Alan Dale and Wil-
liam Winter pronounce him the great-
est artist of his day.
Charles B. Hanford is known all over
the country. For years he toured with
his own organization, and also co-
starred with R. D. Mac Lean and Odette
Tyler. He has Dlayed over fifty
Shakespearean, roles and is considered
an authority on.the works of the Bard
of Avon.
Khyva St Albans is a very beauti-
ful young woman and a remarkably
talented actress. Last season she gave
New York the most magnificent pro-
duction of Romeo and Juliet. The
critics were enthusiastie about her
work and offers came for many New
York productions. But ambition won
the day and Miss St. Albans decided
to continue in Shakespeare. She, Will
be seen as Ohpella and Desdemona.
Owing to-the fact that Sothern-Mar-
lowe have retired, and Mantell is on
the screen, Mr. Kellerd has been able
to secure some of the best classic
actors in America. So our playgoers
have a rare treat in store for the pro-
ductions will be perfect in every de-
tail. -

texts of doctrine. This kind of read-
ing does not necessarily Involve famil-
iarity with the wonderful historical
portions that are full of examples from
which we may take warning or gain
instruction.
It may be worth while to quote a few
passages to show why they are so
often referred to but not quoted. The
cave of Adullam has a bad reputation,
although it came into history in an
honorable fashion. As an epitheta of
opprobriumn it was first used in the
British parliament to cast contempt on
a new party of radicals. It has been
used of late by one of our own states-
men. who to his many accomplish-
ments adds a remarkable familiarity
with the Bible. Thus runs the orig-
inal story: "David departed thence,
and escaped to the cave of Adullam;
. . . And every one that was in dis-
tress, and every one that was in debt,
and every one that was discontended,
gathered themselves unto him; and he
became a captain over them."
There are a hundred passages relat-
in construing the anti-nepotian law
it was held today by the Attorney
General’s Department that the Legis-
lature means both bodies. House and
Senate, consequently the Speaker of
the House can not appoint to any of- .
flee, position or clerkship any person
related within the second degree of
affinity or within the third degree of
eensanguinityto any member of the
House or to any member of the Sen-
ate. The effect of this opinion is to
prohibit any member of the House
from having any relative within the
prohibited degree appointed to a posi-
tion in the Senate or vice versa.
. Here in America there is much suf-
fering from catarrh and head noises.
American people would do well to-con-
sider the method employed by the Eng-
lish to combat this insidious disease.
Everyone knows how (Lump the English
climate is and how dampness affects
those suffering from catarrh. In Eng.
land they treat catarrhal deafness and
head noises as a constitutional dis-
ease and use an internal remedy for
it that is really very efficacious.
Sufferers who could scarcely hear
have had their hearing restored by this
English treatment to such an extent
that the tick of a watch was plainly
audible seven and eight inches away
from either ear.
Therefore, if you know someone who
is troubled with catarrh, catarrhal
deafness or head noises, cut ont this
formula and hand it to them and you
may have been the means of saving
some poor sufferer perhaps from total
deafness. The prescription can be
easily prepared at home for about 75c
and is made as follows:
From your druggist, obtain 1 oz. of
Parmint 4 Double Strength), about 75c
worth. Take this home, and added- to
it %- pint of hot water and 4 ounces of
granulated sugar; stir until dissolved.
Take.a tablespoonful four times a day.
Parmint is used in this way not only
to reduce by topic action the inflam-
mation and Swelling in the Eustachian
Tubes, and thus to equalize the air
pressure on the drum, but to correct
any excess of secretions in the middle
ear, and the results it gives are usual-
ly remarkably quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in
any form should give this recipe ar •
trial. Van Smith Drug Ca can sup-
ply you.

In recent years investigation by
means at X-rays, th® observations of
scientists such as Cannon, Grutzner,
Pavlov, Fowler, Hawk, prove that an
abundance of water is necessary in
good bodily housekeeping. To drink a
pint of hot water before meals is good
practice, and those suffering from a
catarrhal condition of the stomach will
find benefit in adding about 10 grains
(one-sixth of a level teaspoonful) of
baking-soda, drinking it an hour be-
fore each meal.
If your kidneys are sick, or you suf-
fer with lumbago -or rheumatism at
times, pain in the back or back of
the neck, take a little. Anuric before
meals. Anuric (double strength) can
be. found at any good drug store, and
was finit-discovered -by’Dr.Piercel.S)L.
the Surgical Institute in Buffalo, N. Y.
When run-down, when life indoors
has brought a stagnant condition in
the circulation — most everyone is
filled with uric acid—especially is this
so of people past middle age. This urio
acid in the blood often causes rheu-
matism, lumbago, swelling of hands or
feet, or a bag-like condition under
the eyes. Backache, frequent urination
or the pains and stiffness of the joints
and high blood-pressure are also often
noticed. Everyone should drink plenty
of pure water and exerc.se in the open
air as much as possible. I have found
that Anuric is an antidote for this
uric acid poison and that it will dis-
solve tho accumulation of uric acid in
the body much aa hot water dissolves

Mr. John E. Kellerd is one of tho
most versatile adors on-the American
stage today. It is natural, of course,
to associate his name with his won-
derful performance of Hamlet, he be-
ing the only actor who played this ro‛e
for 102 consecutive performances on
Broadway. This was two years aso,
and since then Mr. Kellerd has toured
the principal cities of the United States
and Canada.
We are one of the fortunate cities
to be booked for his Tri-Star combir
nation this season, for Mr. Kellerd has
Mr. Chas. B, Hanford, the celebrated
Shakespearen star, and the beautiful
Khyva St, Albans to assist him when
he comes to the Hancock Opera House
on Monday and Tuesday night.
Mr. Kellerd was for many years co-
partial judge of human nature, and he
has furnished savings good for any oc-
casions and either side of a question.
For instance, he says, “Answer not a
fool according to his folly, lest thou
also be like unto him." He also says,
"Answer a fool according to his folly,
lest he be wise in his own conceit.”
Isaiah and Ezekiel, Hebrew proph-
els. have furnished the advocates of
"preparedness" with many appropriate
passages. See Ezekiel xxxiii, where
the Lord says to the prophet, "I have
set thee a watchman unto the house
of Israel." In a passage . of. extraor-
dinary vigor Ezekiel defines the duty
of the watehman when he sees tho
sword approaching, with a definition of
the watchman’s responsibility to give
the warning and a transference of the
responsibility to the citizen when he
has heard the warning.
The battle of Armageddon has a fa-
miliar sound, used as a party rally-
ing cry. it has no meaning, or, if any
meaning, a sinister one. for in the Book
of Revelations the fight is between
angels and devils at the end of the
world—but to the record: “For they
are. the spirits of devils, working mir-
acles, which go forth unto the kings
of the earth and of the whole world to
gather them to the battle of that great
day of God Almighty. . . . And he
gathered them together into" a place
called in the Hebrew tongue Armaged-
don.”
