It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne

during the day, and to get up many
limes during the night. The mild and

Horse Sense for People Who Think
That prolific writer and really great moral philosopher, Opie
Read, aas one of his characters say, in substance: "It is not
what a man refuses to do in this life that makes him strong. It
is what he QUITS DOING."
Turn this over in your mind a few times, think on the amount
.of truth it contains. A man may refuse to do a wrong thing be
] cause it does not tempt him —another man may be tempted by
the same thing, and yield. He may contract the habit of doing
this wrong thlDg. The man who refused, because it did not
tempt him, showed no strength —none was necessary. But the
man to whom it was a temptation, and who yielded, but who af
terward realized the wrong, and QUIT, showed strength and was
made stronger by the act. Whenever a man fights a battle and
wins a victory he is made stronger.
QUIT DOING WRONG—BE STRONG.
Many men persist in the wrong of reiu:iiig adequate pro
tection to their families, such as a good life insurance policy
would afford—quit refusing —be strong—see us, .pr write to us.
WE WILL HELP YOU.
