A South American Lizard Mot Its Match. DUNN; Dose With Purgativesâ€" Tonic is All You Need. Snakes on the pampas of South America, have many enemies. Butt rowing owls feed on them, and so dc herons and storks. which kill them with a, blow of their javclin beaks. The tyrant bird picks up the young snake by the tail, and [lying to a, branch or stone, uses the reptile a, flail until its life is battered out. The large lizard of the pampas. the iguana, is a. famous snavkc~killmx It smites the snake to death with its powerful tail. Mr. Hudson, in his “Natur- alist in La .l’lata,” tells this story: A QUOD MEDICINE FOR THE SPRING Not exactly sick-~th not feeling (quite well. That’s the way most [.r-ople feel in the spring. Easily tired, appetite fickle, sometimes headaches and a feeling of (lepresw hi n, Pimplcs or eruptions may “mm-air on the skin, or there may bu iw’nges of rheumatism or neural~ gin. Any of these indicate that the Mood is out of order; that the in- door life of winter has left its mark upon you, and may easily develop into more serious trouble. Don’t dose yourself with purgativos as muny people do, in the hope that you can put your blood right. Pur- gatives gallop through the system and weaken instead of giving strength. Any doctor will tell you this is true. What you need in the spring is a tonic that will make new blood and build u the nerves. Dr. Willinms’ Pink ills is the only medicine that can do this speedily, so.er and surely. Every does oi this= medicine helps make new blood, which clears the skin,,strengv thong the appetite,» and makes tired, depressed men and women bright, active and strong. Miss Mary Baker, Tancook, N. 8., says, “Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have been a great blessing to me. Last year while I was attending school I be- came so weak and completely run down that I thought I would have to give up going to school. I was affected with dizzy spells and would fall down at any time. I got half a dozen boxes of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills and before they were half gone I felt my strength returning. By the t'me I had used them all, the dizzy smalls were completely gone, and I was again enjoying good health.” One day a, friend of. mine was ridâ€" ing out, hmking after his cattle. 0110 0nd of his lasso was attached bu his saddle. and the remainder 0f the fortyâ€"foot line was allowcd to [mil on the ground.

Simonâ€"He received the name Peter (“rock”) at the time of his initiatory call (John 1. 42), and was the spokesman of the apostles. Imâ€" pulsive, over eager, he was, neverâ€" theless, able at the last to make earnest protestations of his love for the Master (John ‘21. 17), a love that found. expression in twoscore years of faithful service as an apostle. Evidence is not. wanting that he died a martyr at Rome, crucified, at his own request, head downward “since. he deemed himself unwonty to die like his Lord.” Andrew his brother and he were fishermen of Bethsaida, and had met. Jesus early in his ministry at Bethany beyond Jordan. Andrew is said to have been crucified in Achaia. 2. Twelve apostlesâ€"The name is introduced at this point, inasmuch a: the disciples were now “sent forth” for the first time upon a dcâ€" finite mission. Later the term 'as extended to Paul, Barnabas, and others. Chapter 10, Verse 1. His twelve disciplesâ€"These specially chosen followers are variously designated in the Gospels as “the twelve dis- ciples,” “the twelve apostles,” “the twelve,” and sometimes simp- ly. “the disciples.” Matthew speaks four times of “the twelve disciples,” and only once of “the twelve apostles.” There were variâ€" ous stages in the gathering together of these men. Five at least had al- ready been summoned to leave their ordinary pursuits and become com- panions of Jesusâ€"Peter, James, John, Andrew, and Matthew. Philip and Nathanael had also enjoyed intimate relations with him. The number correspond to the ancient tribes. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL 36. He was moved with compas- sion-F0r he saw the multitudes as none other (John 2. 25), and he saw that the bare limitations of time made it impossible to cope singleâ€" handed with the needs of so many mignorant, diseased, spiritually lostâ€"like sheep not having a shepâ€" herd (quoted from Numbers 27. 17), worn out with travel (literal mean- ing of distressed). and scattered (an easy prey, therefore, for their eneâ€" mies). Gave themâ€"In this chapter it apâ€" pears that Jesus gave the disciples not only authority to cast out un- clean spirits (see note on “(16‘ moms” in lesson for March 13), and to heal, but also fellowship in his suffering (22â€"23), assurance of necâ€" essary equipment (9, 19, 20), and identification with him (40). Lesson 11. The Mission of the Twelve, Malt. 9. 35 to 10. 1-5, 40-42. Golden Text, Matt. 10. 8. Verse 35. This verse sums up the mmistry 0f Jesusâ€"teaching, preach- ing. heahng. 37, 38. Jesus seems to change the figure suddenly and to refer to the multitude as a. plenteous harvest, to which the few laborers are un- equal. But Matthew probably in« troduces into this connection a, say- ing of Jesus uttered on another oc- casion (Luke 10. 2). It is, however, a fitting prelude to the calling of the twelve to the apostolate. James . . . and Johnâ€"Two other brothers, sons of Zcbedee, a pros- perous fisherman, with whom the sonu were in partnership. Since their mother was sister of Mary, they were own cousins of Jesus, after the flesh. They were called, from their vehemenee or their fiery elm‘prence, Sons of Thunder. Luke 9. 54, is in keeping with this. John enjoyed a long and glorious minâ€" istry. but James was early marâ€" tyred. These first four were grant.- ed an unusual intimacy with Jesus; one. of the fathers calls them “the most elect, of the elect.” -3 Philips-See John 1. 4-4; G. 5 (Was he a sort of “commissary of subsistence" to the apostolic band ); .12. .‘21; ’4. 8; also Acts 8. BarlholomewflThe meaning of the word is “Son of Tolmai,” and he was probably Nathanael, who would fitvtingly be sent out on the mission with Philip, the man who ln‘buglll} him to Jesus. Compare the mention made by John (who never speaks of Bartholomew) of Nathanael, who is never mentioned ‘in the other Gospels (John 1. 45; 21 1.14). Thomas~~CaHed Didymus (John 11. 16), which, like Thomas, means “the twin.” Tradition gives him the. name of Judas. John’s referâ€" ences to him give us the picture of n. despondenb, pessimistic type of man, yet a man of courage, and possessed of a dogged devotion to the Master. Matthewa-This was the name gir INTERNATIONAL LESSON, APRIL 10. 5, 6. Here is indicated the sphere in which the apostles were to work. Gentiles and Samaritans were exâ€" cluded, because, while the ultimate aim was a worldâ€"wide. kingdom, it was necessary for Jesus to secure a strong base of operations among the chosen race. This was accord- ing to the divine programme. which we find illustrated again and again in the method of Paul. James‘David Smith and others conjecture that Alphaeus, the fa- th er, is identical with Clopas (John 19 25), and that; his w1fe, Mary, was one of those at the cress; fur- ther, that Levi and James may have beer brothers. This James is called by Mark “the little,” to distinguâ€" ish him from James the son of Ze- bedee. His companion, Thaddaeus, is called by Luke “Judas the son of James.” He also went under the appellation of Lebbaeus. Only once does he figure in the Gospels (John 14. 22). Judas Iscariotâ€"So called because he was from the'villagc of Kerioth, in southern Judah. Though brandâ€" ed “thief” (John 12. 6), “bet-ray- er" (Matt. 10. 4), “traitor” (Luke 6 16), “a devil” (John 6. 70), and “son of perdition” (John 17. 12), he must have been a man of apos- tOIic proportions to have been called by Jesus. 7 8. The nature of their work. It was to be gratuitously performed, in accordance with the autlmrity an] assurance of strength which they had freely received. No in- stance is recorded of their raising the dead on this mission; but even that; was accomplished in the later labors of the apostles (Acts 9. 40; 20. 10). 4. Simon-~The margin gives “Zea- lot” for Canaenean. The Zealots were the opposite extreme from the publicans like Levi; for they were patriots to the death, and were bit‘ terly opposed to the Roman rule. en Levi, the publiean) after his call. The other lists of apostles make no reference to his hated previous ocâ€" cupation, and when Mark and Luke tell of the early summons of Levi they charitany omit to identify him with the future apostle, though Matthew publishes the. identity (see notes on lesson for March 20). 9-15.

Opium and morphine have been resorted to in the past, as relief measures. But now it is learned that, the system must be. treated to rid it of inflamâ€" mation and congestion.
