been in constant use for the relief of Constipation, Flatulency,
Wind Colic and Diarrhoea; allaying Feverishness arising
therefrom, and by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, aids
the assimilation of Food; giving healthy and natural sleep.

Oaahier,
'Honor Thy Pather And Thy
Mother."
The words, "Honor thy father
and thy mother" mean four things
always do what they bid you,
always tell them the truth, always
treat ihem lovingly, and take care
of them when they are sick or
grow old. I never yet knew a
boy who trampled on the wishes of
his parents who turned out well.
God never blesses a willfully diso
bedient son.
When Washington was sixteen
years old he determined to leave
home and be a midshipman in the
navy. Alter he had sent off his
trunk he went to bid his mother
good bye. She wept so bitterly
because he was going away that he
said to his negro servant, "Bring
back my trunk. 1 am not going to
make my mother suffer so by my
lejving her."
He remained at home to please
his mother. The decision led to
his becoming a surveyor, and af
terwards a soldier. His whole
glorious career in life turned on
this one simple act of trying to
make his mother happy. And
happy, too, is the child who never
has occasion to shed bitter tears
for any act of unkindness to his
parents. Let us not forget that
God has said, "Honor thy father
and thy mother." The Little
Christian.

Maxine was visiting a friend.
Her mother t told her to return
home at four o'clock, and when
the time arrived she put away her
playthings and prepared to leave.
Her friend urged her to play iust
a little longer, but seriously she
replied: "No, Molly, I can't play
any longer, for it' my daddy comes
home from work and I'm gone he
will cry his blue eyes out."
BUT HE LIVETH.
A negro registant from a farming
district was called to service. Ar
riving in town, he found the local
board had moved to another street.
At the new address another negro
languished in the doorway.
"Is dis whar de redemption bo'd

"Sho' is," answered the second.
"But de blessed redeemer done

THE HOME AFAR.
BY FRANK L. STANTON.
I dwell.not with the rich and great, where shiny temples rise,
But I've a heavenly estate a mansion iu the skies;
I envy not the mighty ones the lords of all the lands;
I know my titles yonder, in a house not made with hands.
Few earthly friends to welcome when she gleam o' gold I see,
But o'er the crystal river they are beckoning to me;
1 see the lights of Canaan far shinine o'er ihe tide -The
bright lights of the city that is on the other side.
An' so, my soul is singin' 'midst the red thorns of the way ;
The Rose of Rest is bloomin' in the eve rlastin' day ;
An' the love that lives forever at a shiny portal stands,
An' calls the weary traveler to the house not made with, hands.
