Weldon, N. C. There is a toucliiiii; story told of a littlu girl who was under going an operation. The phy sician said to her as he was about to place her on the oper ating table: "Before we can make you well we put must you tosleep." The little girl look ed up and smiling, said, "Oh, if you are going to put me to sleep, I must say my prayers first." Then she knelt down beside the table and said : "Now I lay nie down to sleep, I tirav thee, Lord, my soul to keep; If I should die before I wake, I prav thee. Lord, my soul to take." The surgeon said afterwards that he prayed that night for the tirst time in thirty years, This little trirl was about her Father's business as Christ was j when He was listening and an I swering questions. Xo one is ! so small but lie can attend to ! the business of prayer. Thank I Ond that there are littlu pray ers, little burdens, little words, deeds, and songs adapted to little children, for shall they not lead us? (Is. i):i!.) Record of Christian Work.

Women Are Constantly Being Restored to Health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. "Worth mountains of gold," says one woman. Another says, "1 would not give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for all the other medicines for women in the world" Still another writes, "I should like to have the merits of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound thrown on the sky with a searchlight so that all suffering women could read and be convinced that there is a remedy for their ills." We could till a newspaper ten limes the size of this with such quo tations taken from t he letters we have received from grateful women whose health has been restored and Buffering banished by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable t'oni)ouiid. Why has I.ydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound accomplished such a universal success? Why has it lived and thrived and kept on douig its glorious work among th j sick women of the world for more than :i0 years ? Simply and surely becauso of its sterling worth. The reason no other medicine has ever approached its success is plainly and sim ply because theie is no oilier medicine so good for women's ills. Here are two letters that just came to the writer's desk only two of thousands, but both tell a comforting story to every suffering wo man who will read them and be guided by them. MRS. WILLIAMS SAYS: Elkhart, Ind. " I suffered for 14 years from organic inflammation, fe tuule weakness, pain and irregulari ties. The pains in my sides were increased by walking or Btanding on my feet and 1 had such awful bearing down feelings, was depressed in spirits and became thin and pale with dull, heavy eyes. I bad six doctors from whom'l received only temporary relief. 1 decided to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound a fair trial and also the Suni tive Wash. I have now used the remedies for four months and cannot FROM MRS. I). II. UKOWX. lota, Kansas. "During theChaiiRe of Life 1 was sick for two years, lie fore I took your medicine 1 could not bear the weight of my clothes and was bloated very badly. 1 doc tored Willi three doctors but they did me no good. They said nature must have its way. My sister ad vised me to take Lydia E. l'inkham's Vegetable Compound and 1 purchased a bottle. Hi' fore it was gone the bloating left me and I was nut so sore. I continued taking it until I had taken VI bottles. Now I am stronger tliau I have been for years and can do all my work, even the washing. Your medicine is worth Its weight in gold. 1 cannot praise it enough. If more women would take your medicine there would be more healthy women. You may use this letter for the good of others."

"Sometimes we are almost discouraged, The way is so cumbered and steep; Sometimes, though, we're spent with the sowing, There cometh no harvest to reap, And we faint on the road and we falter, As our faith and our courage are gone, Till a voice, as we kneel at the altar, Commands us : "Take heart and go on." " 'Take heart !" 'Tis the word of our Leader, And e'en when our vision is dim, VC'hat else can we do, but, arising, Uplift weary eyes unto Him? " 'Take heart" Why, 'lis Christ who hath spoken; And what can we do but obey? Though He gives us no tangible token, Himself is the sun of our day. And in His own lime He will show us Why sorrow and trial were sent X'hy we toiled and saw naught for our toiling, And home empty-handed we went, Though He gives us no tangible token, Still must we arise and go on, As sure as His body was broken l-'or us, that our tight shall be won. Then fain for a touch of His garment When crowds hem us in and 'tis dark; We'll cling to the thought of His goodness, Press on, with the cross for our mark. Take heart ! Yes, our own blessed Master, Till the last of our heartbeats are gone, Amid conflict and loss and disaster, We'll just take heart and go on." 0 iaoaoacN If MRTHAMPTflN L HFRTFfiRIl RAN WAY C(fi I1WII I III Hill IWM W) llblll I n - U Kh'AD DOWN l)ajlyjWilSunlays IN II I III Al'KII I.

A sentinel angel sitting high in glory, Heard this shrill wail ring out from purgatory : "Have mercy, mighty angel, hear my story : "I loved and, blind with passionate love, I fell; l.ove brought me downiio death, and death 10 hell, For (iod is just, and death for sin is well. "I do not rage against His high decree, Nor lor myself do ask thai grace shall be; I'.ut for my love on earth who mourns for me. "('real Spirit ! Let me see my love again, And comfort him one hour, and 1 were fain To pay i thousand years of Hre and pain." Then Mud the pitying angel : "Nny, repeni Thai wild vow ! Look, the utai ringer's bem Down 10 the last Tiour ol thy punishment." But still she wailed, "I pray ihee, lei me go ! I cannot rise 10 peace and leave him so. Oh, let me sooihe him in his bitter woe I" The bran gates ground sullenly ajar, And upward, joyous, like a rising star, She rose and vanished in the ether far. Bui soon adown the dying sunset sailing, And like a wounded bird her pinions trailing, She fluttered back, with broken hearted wailing. She sobbed, "I found him by the summer sea Reclined, his head upon a maiden's knee She curled his hair and kissed him. Woe is me I" She wept, "Now let my punishment begin, 1 have been fond and foolish. Lei me in, To expiate my sorrow and my sin." The angel answered, "Nay, sad soul, go higher I To be deceived in your true heart's desire Was bitterer than a thousand years of fire." A Loving Daughter, the Touch of Whose Caressing Fingers Brings a Happy Light to the Weary Lyes of a Father and Mother. Yes, wanted a jjirl a duugh- ; ' ter in a thousand homes, blight, smiling, helpful, always willing to hold the baby, set ; the table or sweep the floor, and to do these things so hap- ! pily and cheerfully and well,! that Ihn baby will crow, the ta ble will look like a well-hal-anceil picture, and the careful, critical grandmother will Mini no dust under the chairs or in the corners of the room. Want eda loving daughter, the touch of whose caressing lin gers brings a happy light to the weary eyes of a father and mother, the sound of whose cheery voice and merry laugh ter is a joy to the whole house hold. Where is there a home in which such a daughter is not wanted? Does any one know such a girl!-' There is a situa tion open for her. She is ad vertised for, sought for; she can have any place she wants; the world is hers, but why are thera not more applicants? Ah, she is already occupied. She has a h o in e of her o vv n which she cannot give up: she is enshrined in the hearts of father and mother; her broth ers have bound her about with the chords of love, and will not let her go. i hf: wronq passenger. The Blues Flee Before Him asthe Fog Before the West Wind. mi-- va. 0 KPSFCola One afternoon not long ago, in the vicinity of Druid Hill Park, in Baltimore there might have been seen a young man industriously pushing up and down a baby car riage, intently reading a book the while. "Henry! Henry!" called a young woman from the second siory of a house opposite. Henry heard nm, but continued to push the baby carnage and to read his book. In about an hour the cries for "Henry," were repeated. "Well, what do you want?" he demanded, rather impatiently. "Nothing, dear," was the irri tating response, "except to inform you that you've been wheeling Harriet's doll all the afternoon. I think it's time for the baby to have a turn now." Harper's Magazine. SHE KNEW. The man whose ha! ha! reaches from one end of the street to the other may be the same fellow who scolded his wife and spanked the baby before he got his breakfast, but his laughter is only the cr.idle of thorns under the pot. The man who spends his laughter ' through his life before a late j breakfast; when he misses the train, when his wife goes visiting i and he has to eat a cold supper; j the man who can laugh when he finds a button off his shirt, when the furnace goes out at night and the twins come down with the ! measles at the same time he's the fellow that's needed. He never tells his neighbor to have faith; somehow he puts faith into him. ; He delivers no homilies; somehow the sight of his face, the sound of his happy voice and the light of his blessed life, carry conviction : that words have no power to give. The blues flee before him as the fog before the e-,i wind He . conies into his own home like a tlood of sunshine over a meadow of blooming buttercups, and his wife and children bloom like June roses. His home is rendc lent with sympathy and love. The neighborhood is belief for Ins life, and somebody will learn from his life thai laughter is better than . tears. The w orld needs this man. Why are there so few of them? Can he be created ? Can he be evolved ? Why is he not in every house, turning rain into sunshine, and winter into summer all the year around until life is a perpetual season of joy ? M others, Have Your Children Worms ?
