Catarrh CAN'T be Cured

With local applications, as they can
not reach the seat of the disease. Ca
tarrh is not a blood or constitutional
disease, and in order to cure it you
have to take internal remedies. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and
acts directly upon the blood and mucus
surface. Halls Catarrh Cure is no
quack medicine. 1t was prescribed by
one of the best physicians in this coun-
try for years and is regular prescrip-
ton. 1t is composed of the best tonics
known, combined with the best blood
purifiers, acting directly upon the mu-
Gus surface. The perfect combination
of the two ingredients is what pro-
duces such wonderful results in curing
catarrh. Send for testimonials free.

Charities Question.

Charlie, full Of fun and play,
Had sober thought one day,
Sitting in his chair at school,
Trying to be dutiful,
Though hard task 1t may be
For boy so full of glee.
=" Teacher, why do people pray2
Asked he then, in curious way;
He had thought 1t DER and DER
Until he could think no more,
Asking what he wished to know;
Older people all do So
Charlie, will tell you why"
Said the teacher in reply;
People pray for what they need,
As we in the Bible read;
Everybody ought to pray
For new blessings every day.
So they pray for daily bread;
BY Gods hand we all are fed;
Should his hand withhold the rain,
We should have no fields OF grain;
~ idiiiht VIC ehOuiu say
Send us food, o Lord, we pray
Trouble comes, and we must go
To the Lord, for he doth know
Everything that brings us harm;
Strong and mighty is his arm;
He can help us, you and me,
Charlie, pray, and you will see."
Very silent was the boy
While the teacher gave employ
To the other pupils there,
And a soft and tranquil air
Filled the school-room like a balm,
Such strange, unwonted calm.
Half an hour of quiet passed,
When tide of fun ran fast
Der the school-room; like an elf.
Charlie was the cause himself;
At some mischief on the sly
When was turned the teachers eye.
Charlie, for this broken rule
You must tarry after school"
Here was trouble for the child
Full OF sport and laughter wild;
Happy all the scholars went,
He was left for punishment.
Very lonely was the place,
Very sorrowful his face;
How he wished to get away,
Anxious only for his play;
But the teacher held him still,
All so much against his will.
Teacher, let us prayl" he said,
While she looked and wondered
At his sweet and anxious face,
Now imprisoned in the place;
Only one way in his doubt
Gould he pray and thus get out =?
" Charlie, you may CO." said she,
With IA kiss, and out with glee
Went the child, perhaps to learn
Wisdom for life's duty stern;
When in trouble, then to pray,
And go happy on his way.

The Call OF the Christian.

Not always as the whlrlwind's runs
On Horebs mount of fear;
Not always as the burning bush
To Median's shepherd seer;
Not as the awful voice which came
To Israels prophet bards;
Nor as the tongues of cloven flame,
Nor gift Of fearful words.
Not always thus with outward sign
OF fire and voice from heaven,
The message of truth divine,
The call of God Is given;
Awaking In the human heart
Love for the true and right,
Zeal for the Christians better part,
Strength for the Christians fight.
Oh, then If CLEANS of truth and light
Flash DER thy waiting mind,
Unfolding to thy mental sight
The wants of human kind;
If, brooding over human grief,
The earnest wish is known
To soothe and gladden. with relief
An anguish not thy own.
Though heralded with naught Of fear
Or outward sign or show;
Though only to the inward ear

Though dropping, as the mama fell,
