force of de

diei has one that will eventually hunt down
and arrest that iiartieutHt disease.
Lung and bionchial disease, ure among
the most baffling complaints w inch doctor
have to deal with; because it isn't the lungs
or bronchial tubes alone which are anected,
but every corner of the system furnishes a
lurking place for tnese elusive maladies.
They change and reappear and dodge
about the system under numberless ois
guises. They are almost alwavs compli
cated with liver or atomach troubles, nerv
ousnesa, neuralgia, or "general debility."
The best detective remedy which Nature
has provided to search out and arrest these
perplexing ailments is Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical IHscovery. It lays an arresting
hand directly upon the poisonous, naralyi
ing elements hiding in the liver and digea
tlve organ.
It gives the blood making gtands power
to manufacture an abundant supply of pure,
red, highly vitaliied blood which reinforces
the lungs with healthy tissue ; feeds the
nerre centres with power, and builds up
aolid muscular flesh and active energy.
Forweak lungs, spirting of blood, shortness
of breath, nasal catarrh, bronchitia, aevere
coughs, asthma, and kindred affections, it
ia a aovereign remedy- While it promptly
curet the severest cough it strengthens
the system and puri6ea the blood.

A lady came to uin once and said: "Mr
Moody, tell tlie how 1 can become a Chris
tiati." The tears were rollinj; dowu her
checks, and she was in a very I; vnrable
iiiond: "but," slic said, "1 don't want to
be one ol your kind."
"Well," I usked, "have I pit any
peculiar kind?" What i the matter with
my Christianity?"
"Well," she said, "my father was a
doctor, mid Iind it larn,c. prnelicc, and lie
used to ta'sc us to the theater. There
was it lurjie family of girls, and we had
tickets for the tl.ealer three or four times
a week. I suppose we were there a good
detil ofteiiei than we were in church. 1
am matried to a lawyer, mid lie has a
large, practice. He takes us out to the
theater," and she said, "I mil far better
aciiiuiiitcd with the theater and theater
people than with the church and clinrdi
people, and don't want to give up the
theater "
"Well," I said, "did you ever hear
me say anything about theaters? There
have been reporters here every day for
II the different papers, and they arc
giving my sermons verbatim in one pa
per. Have you ever seen anything in
the sermons against the theaters?"
Shi! said, "No."
"Well," I s.iid,'! hive seen you in the
audience every afternoon for several weeks
d have ymi heard tne say anuhing
ainst theaters?"
No, she hadn't
"Will," 1 said, "what made you bring
lliein up?"
'Why, I supposed ymi didn't believe
in theaters."
'What made you think that?"
'Why," she said, "do you ever go?"
No."
' Why don't you go?"
'Heeause 1 have got something bettor.
I would sooner go out into the street and
eat dirt than do sniiieof the things 1 used
to do before I became a Cbristi in."
"Why," she said, "I don't iinder
tand." ' Never mind," I said, "when Jesus
Christ has the pre ituiiieiiee, you will un-
I' lstand it all. He didn't come down
here to say that we shouldn't go there,
and shouldn't go here, and lay down a
lot of rules; but he laid down great prin-
iples. Now, be says if you love him,
you will take delight in pleasing linn.
Ami I began to preach Christ toiler.
The teats started uuaiu. Sho said:
"I tell you, Mr. Moi.dy, that sermon
on the iuilwe.ling Christ yesterday after
noon just broke my heart. I admire
him and want to be a Christian, but I
on't want to give up the theaters "
I s.iid "please don't mention them
again. 1 dm t want to talk about thea
ters. I want to talk to you about
Christ."
S i I took my itihle and read to he!
about Christ.
lint she said agiin, "Mr M only, (can
I go to the theater if I h c-ime a (I'hris-
taiti.
"Yes," 1 said you can go to the thea
ter just as much as you like if you arc a
real, true Christian, and can go with his
blessing."
"Well," she said, "I am glad you are
not so natrow minded as some."
She felt ipille relieved to think that
she could go to (he theaters and be a
Christian, lint I said:
If you can go to the theater for
the glory of Hod, keep un going, only be
sure that you go for the glory ol Hod,
ll you area Christian; you will beglad to
In whatevi r will please liilll "
I really think she became a Christian
that d..y. The burden had gone thcte
was joy; but just as she was leaving tne
at the door, she said:
"I am not going to give up the thea
ter "
In a few days she came back to tue am)
said: "Mr Moody, 1 understand all about
that theater business now. I went the
other night. There was a large parly at
our house, and my hush.ind wanted us t
go anil we wetii; hut wln n the curtain
lifted, cvervihin; looked so different
said to my husband, 'this is tin place fur

verted in the Moody nits tings; and if you
go out it will be all through fashiouablc
society. I beg of Juu d.itt't uiuke a fooi
of yourself by getting up ami going out '
But I said, 'I have been making a fool ol
myself all of tuy life."
Now; the theater liadu't changed, bill
she had got something better and she
was going to overcome the world. "They
that are after the flesh do mind the things
of the fli)sh;but they that are after the
Spirit, the things of the Spirit "
When Chtist has the first place in your
heart you arc going to get victory. Just
do whatever you know will please him.

it that they gel the mastery, and become

author dwells at some length on lliesu'itle
flattery eonvejed iu applying what is ordi
nirily termed a "pet name" to the object
of one's alTeetioii and re ts with em

indorsed in omy a hall hearted way. In
making love to a widow," our author
iys, "you have nothing to do but tn
answer her iUcslinns ami to return her

then, you must lir.st be sure that you

She, of course, docs not give you much

in, but will discuss the marriage ceremony
