Famous Bell Sacred
Silent for nearly a century and n
quarter, the old ship's bell of Lord
Nelson's flagship Victory was receutly
rung in the presence of a gathering of
distinguished persons In St. George's
hall In Liverpool, given for the benefit
of seamen's institute*. The bell Is
held sacred by the English people
and considerable official formality at-
tended the release of the bell for this
occasion. It could not have been ac-
complished for any other cause.
Lots of people actually seem proud
of the fact that they have nothing to
be proud of. v

Men of Proved Bravery
Have Moments of Fear
What Is the main quality of a liero7
Fearlessness, Isn't It? You'll say, In
discussing tlie chief character of a fa-
vorite book, "Why, there Isn't a thing
he's afraid of." Often you wish that
you were like him.
It's hard to be absolutely unafraid.
A courageous hunter of big game, for
Instance, who will face lions ahd tigers
without a tremor, often will dread
crossing a busy street, through trafllc
that you would navigate without a
single thought. He feels safe In the
Jungle, where he Is at home. A Hon
as big as a house couldn't scare blm.
but he loses his head In traffic be-
cause It Is unfamiliar to liim.
Most of your fears, If hacked Into a
corner, will turn out to be as thin as
a halloween ghost. Next time you are
afraid of something, examine K from
all angles and see whether It Is really
as terrible as It seems. It probably
won't be.—Washington Star.
Birthatone Now Made
Matter of Authority
Historical records of many races
concerning the symbolic significance > f
birthstones have been examined by a
committee appointed by the National
Jewelers' association, England, and an
agreed list nng been adopted.
As a result, the association has as-
signed the various stonea to the months
In the following order:
January, garnet; February, ame-
thyst; March, bloodstone; April, sap-
phire; May, emerald; June, turquoise;
July, onyx; August, carneilan; Sep-
tember, chrysolite; October, aqua-
marine; November, topaz; December,
ruby.
This list coincides closely with the
beliefs of the ancient Roman, who,
however, favored the agate for May,
emerald for June, and surdonyx for
September.
There Is envy enough without stir-
ting up more by flaunting wealth or
advantages.
A man with egotism often succeeds
and sometimes mistakenly.

Lesson for May 22
PETER HEAL8 THE LAME MAN
LESSON TEXT—Acts S:l-4:31.
GOLDEN TEXT—Neither la there
salvation In any other (or there Is
none other name under heaven riven
among men whereby we must be
saved.—Acts 4:1S.
PRIMARY TOPIC—Peter Heals a
Lame Man.
JUNIOR TOPIC—Gifts That Money
Cannot Buy.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP-
IC—Giving Our Best for Others.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP-
IC—Gifts That Are Better Than Money.
1. Peter Healing the Lame Man
(Acta 8:1-10).
I., The place (vv. 1, 2).
Peter and John were on their way
to the house of worship. This man
had been placed at the entrance of the
place of worship where he might re-
ceive the sympathetic attention of
worshipers.
2. The man (v. 2). i
This beggar was Infirm from his
birth. He was n#w more than forty
years old (4:22) and had brought hla
ailment with him Into the world.
When he saw Peter and John he asked
alms.
3. The method (vv. 3-8).
(1) The man's attention gained
(v. 4). j
Peter and John commanded him to
look on them.
(2) Peter commanded him In the
name of Jesus ChHlst of Nazareth to
rise and walk (V. 0).
(8) Peter took him by the right
hand (v. 7),
This was rn&ant to give Impetus to
his faith—not strength to his ankles.
4. The man's response (v. 8).
Strength came to bis feet and ankle-
bones at once. He stood, he walked,
he leaped and shouted praises to God.
6. The effect (vv. 9-11).
The people were so filled with won-
der and amazement that they ran to-
gether to behold this wonderful thing.
Note:
(1) This helpless beggar had to be
carried to the temple gate. Men and
women out of Christ are so helpless
that they need to be brought where
the light of God can be applied to
them.
(2) Peter taking the man by the
hand shows the manner of helping the
lost.
II. Peter Witnessing Before the
Multitude (2:12-20).
Though this miracle directed th$
attention of the people to Peter and
John, Peter Immediately turned their
attention from himself to Christ. He
told them that It was faith in Jesus
Christ whom God had glorified and
whom they had deliberately betrayed
and crucified that had healed this
man.
III. Peter In Prison far Christ's Sake
(4:1-4).
It was his fidelity to Christ that
brought him this persecution. Observe:
1. T*ne leaders—priests and Saddu-
cees—in this persecution (vv. 1, 2).
The priests were Intolerant because
these new teachers were encroaching
upon their functions.
2. Tbe result (vv. 8, 4).
Though they were held In bondage
by chains, Christ continued to work.
The number of believers had greatly
Increased.
IV. Peter Witnessing Before the
Sanhedrln (4:5-21).
1. The Inquiry (vv. 5-7).
This Inquiry admitted the reality of
the miracle. They wanted to know
what It signified. >•
2. Peter's answer (vv. 8-12).
Being filled with the Holy Spirit,
Peter calmly and graciously answered.
He showed them that they were not
on trial as evildoers but for doing
good to the helpless and needy man.
Since they could not deny the miracle
he boldly declared that It had been
done In the name of Jesus Christ
whom they had crucified and God had
raised from the dead.
3. The Impression upon the Sanhe-
drln (vv. 13-22). '
(1) They marveled (vv. 1-13).
They saw that Peter's behavior and
words were as unusunl as the miracle.
(2) They took knowledge that Peter
and John had been with Jesus (v. 13).
(3) They forbade them to speak in
Christ's name (v. 18).
(4) Peter and John's reply (w.
19, 20).
They expressed their determination
to obey God rather than men.
(5) Their release (v. 21).
Seeing the people-were on their side,
there was no way to punish tliem.
V. The Church at Prayer (vv. 23-31).
As soon as Peter and John were set
free, they hastened away to their fel-
low disciples and told them their ex<
perlence. They praised God for dettv.
erance' and prayed for boldness to
apeak the Word of God.
Thinking of Faults
Think of yoHr own faults the first
/>art of tbe night when you are awake,
and of the faults of ethers the latter
i urt of the night when you are asleep.
Worldliness, Selfishness
Worlrillnesn and selfishness have no
power to breatho the atmosphere of
th« kingdom of God—Echoes.
God's Way
God's way of exalting His chllrtnsn
Is contrary to tbe flesh.—Echoes.

Relieving Pain With a Reading
Lamp
A SMAIX reading lamp has great
possibilities In Its light rays, as a
reliever of pain. The rays of light
seem as powerless to cure pain as the
air to carry f:he radio message until
one has actualy tried them, as they
are now being resorted to In hospitals,
In sanitariums, and In tbe tuberculosis
camps for the cure of disease.
While large wattage lamps are nec-
essary for deep therapy, to produce
general bodily reaction, a small nitro-
gen reading lamp will relieve the local
rheumatic pain, or the twinge of neu-
• *V '
* -1' _

HI ' I -ft
rltis, especially If the rays be brought
down within ten or twelve Inches of
the area, and a cloth covers the lamp
to concentrate the rays on the aching
spot
The earache, toothache, the pain In
the foot or hand, knee joint, elbow
or shoulder can be successfully treated
at home in this manner. Many mas-
seurs and physicians order light rays
for twenty minutes, alternated with a
dash of Ice, which keeps up 'a con-
stant stimulation of. the blood In the
painful area, and It Is by this cura-
tive action of the blood that the pain,
abscess, or inflammation Is removed.
Many Uses for Old Phono-
graph Needles
OLD phonograph needles of the
inetal style will sing songs of
Other varieties when they have fin-
ished their tasks on the phonographs.
There Is no tack made which Is so
soft and so practical for use In fram-
ing pictures as Is the phonograph
needle. It has no rough edges or top
to Injure the back of the picture of
mat, and Its smooth, sharp point Is
easily pushed with the screw driver
Into the wood frame to hold the pic-
ture In place.
Needles placed In a fancy glass or
china bowl take the place of the shot
/ \' «•; •v\ * •<
which holds the quill pen on the desk,
Both wooden and metal needles may
be used for this purpose.
To clean a milk bottle In which the
milk has soured and caked on the
Bides, a handful of steel phonograph
needles, shaken up and down In the
bottle, will do the work In a few
seconds, scraping and cleaning It off..
Warm water with a little soap added
to the needles, of course, Is necessary.
A spark plug held at the top of a
test tube In which there Is some gas<
ollne and a handful of phonograph
needles will be quickly loosened of Its
stubborn carbo- after a few shak-
ings.

invented Pendulum
Guy gens, a Dutchman, born in 1639,
was the first practical exponent of th«i
pendulum, employing It in the mechan-
ism of the clock. However, he was
not the original discoverer of its prop-
erties. I-eonardo da Vinci (1452-1520)
left notes as to his study of the pen-
dulvm and Galileo (1564-1642) contln
ued these studies.
Excellent Simile
The simile "naked as a needle" Is
/aken from the writings of Wllllum
Langland. In its original form the
word "needle" is spelled "nedle." Our
authority is the collection of similes
edited by Paul Wllstachi There are
ftw articles so devoid of adornment as
a needle. It seemingly affords an ex-
cell Ant opportunity to coin u almlls.

to understand
about used car
allowances
1 When you trade-in your used car for
a new car, you are after all making a
purchase, not a sale. You are simply ap-
plying your present car as a credit toward
the purchase price of the new car.
2 Your used car has only one fundamental
basis of value; i. e., what the dealer who
accepts it in trade can get for it in the
used car market.
3 Your used car has seemingly different
values because competitive dealers are
bidding to sell you a new car.
4 The largest allowance is not necessarily
the best deal for you. Sometimes it is;
sometimes it is not.
5 An excessive allowance may mean that
you are paying an excessive price for the
new cbr in comparison with its real-value.
6 First judge the merits of the new car in
comparison with its price, including all
delivery and finance charges. Then weigh
any difference in allowance offered on
your used car.
