Why is 1t that three bottles Of BIB. are

edy, and twice as much consumed in the State

need take our words, but simply ask the drug
gists. Ask the people, They are competent
witnesses. Six houses in Atlanta arc buying
B. B. B. in five and ten gross lots, and some of
them buy as often as every two months. Why
these unprecedented sales here at home with
so little advertising? Modesty forbids us max

A Weak Spot.

Some OF the questions appearing in
the Watchmdn of late, and the evident
restlessness manifested by some Chris
tian young men on the subject of
amusements leads me to the conclu-
sion that there is weak spot in the
armor which is being taken advantage
OF by the great enemy Of souls. Are
we to conclude that after all surren-
der to Christ is but form? That it
means routine OF Christian work
with permission to throw in between
the worlds pleasures? The man that
appreciates Christian character and
the influence thereof should know the
Importance attaching to every act, no
matter how the world may try assure
its harmlessness. How are you going
to convince the young man who goes
to the common dance that he should
not do so when you attend the select
gathering and dance? You will find
he goes on the same principle that you
do at such times that is, takes the
highest circle Of society which will adj
NIT him.
Perhaps the young man you have
been trying to lead to Christ has not
the opportunity as you have to spend
the evening in elegant mansions with
select company OF ladies and gentle
men playing games fur prizes, but he
knows jolly lot Of young men who
are exceedingly glad to have him join
them in playing for money, which is
more convenient for them than other
things might be; and he is not much
impressed with your character, as he
thinks it merely question OF social
standing between the games. To him
one is right ii the other is. You can't
afford to please yourself at the ex-
pense Of your influence over uncon-
verted young men, and remember that
il at any time during your Christian
life you have spoken a word against
worldlness, the worldly young man
remembers it, and is waiting to see
whether you meant what you said or
not. What shall he say Of you?-W
X. Brown.

The following rules, in regard to en-
gaging in social and public amuse-
ments, were adopted by Mrs. Marsh,
the biographer OF Hedly Wears. They
may help others in solving questions
of personal duty:
GAS belong to the Lord Jesus by
creation, by redemption, by His choice
and by my choice, I will not go to any
entertainment where / could not as
opportunity might occur, give mes
sage from Him to any one who should
converse with me; where if He were
still on the earth, could not have ex-
pected to meet Him. and where, if
he should return suddenly, 1 would
rather that He should not fine me-"
Remember, the mightiest means OF
moral influence is not wealth, or tai
ents, or high social position, but a
high standard of personal religion,
Christians who "are manifestly epis-
ties OF Christ, known and read of all
men," are the salt OF the earth and the
light of the world, in more senses than
one. If we can thus be such a great
blessing to others in this world, ought
it not be a mighty motive to induce
us to make higher attainments IL
practical religionP Would you then
upon the broadcast possible scale, dt
good? Would you pass your days il
the most useful manner, and Civ,
those you know the greatest reason tt
bless God for your existence? Thel
determine in Gods strength you vii
be New Testament Christian. Seel
the high honor OF wearing Christ
name, and care nothing for the world
prominence. Seek to believe il
Christ more strongly, love Him NOR
ardently, and copy his examples NOR
closely than ever before. What high
er enconium could be paid you, wha
higher standard is there for you t
reach, what nobler epitaph could b
inscribed over your tomb, than tina
you were a Bible Christian?- Wdtcl

a rhyme that kept running in hel
head. She finally got up, took her
pencil and wrote out the lines which

BOB.
There was an old man and he had two sons
And those two sons were brothers.
Robert was the name Of one
And Alfred was the other.
As Cleveland was Democrat
I'm shure that don't see
Why the Governor of this State
ADemoerat should not he.
Now, maybe Alf's as good as Bob
And better may be so,
But then you see my dearest friends,
Ofthat do not know.
And until some one proves me wrong
I'll ride my Democratic hobby.

And give three cheers for Bobby.
