Gladness Comes

With a better understanding of the
Wv transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before properef-
forts-gentle efforJs-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-intormed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

4 It is not light thing to govern the
British empire, not In any sense because
we regard the task as beyond human pow
ers. We know that 1t is not, and that firm
and honest hearted men, who will do their
best and fear not, can steer the ship Of
state as we'll now as In former times. Our
course may be through reefs and shoals,
but the perils Of navigation never stopped
an English ship or made towards Of the
captain and crew. Though the RESPONSE
bility is great, it Is not greater than the
courage Of those who are called to deal
with the burden Of the empire.
In recent controversy on the question
OF foreign clerks in the city, London
merchant wrote to explain that German
clerks were III all respects but one vastly
superior to English clerks. They talked
more languages, they were more regular In
their hours, they cost half, they mover
grumbled, they took shorter holidays and
worked longer, and they never drank or
gambled or gave any trouble. The one
drawback was that they could not be in
duced to take responsibility, whereas the
stupid, III educated, tiresoine Englishman
would, and that made him, after all,
worth twice us much as tho German. No;
the failure to take responsibility is not the
vice Of our race, and while this Is 90, we
need not fear the burden Of empire becom-
ing too great. Be the problems that beset

THE OLD CHURCH BELL.

High up DER the heads of the people
That pass like vague ships on the street,
It hangs in Its home in the steeple,
That throbs with the winds rhythmic beat.
What heeds it the world or its noises2
What reclzs it of traffic Is loud din2
OF tears or tho clamor of voices
That speak of the light hearts withinf
Enough that its duty is ringing
In every condition of weather;
Enough that Its mission is bringing
The spiritual household together:
Enough that it strikes for the hours
That speed in a ne'er ending chain,
And chimes over nuptial flowers,
And tolls for the funeral train.
Enough that 1t speaks to the mothers
In clear, unmistalxable tones,
And fathers and sisters and brothers.
From oil the earth populous zones
Enough that 1t brings to the altar
The ones who have strayed from the truth,
As well as the weak ones who falter
Mid trials unknown in their youth
80 there, while the pale stars are marching,
And rivers roll on to the sea,
And heavens blue vault is o'erarching
The bell In its belfry will be,
And then, when Its mission is ended,
And turned Is the last5burial sod,
Its echoes full toned Will be blended
With trumpets that call us to God.

Although in the first instance as slug
gish as tortoise, the kidneys become as
cricket when healthful impulse is
given to them with Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, a promoter of activity in these
organs which counteracts a tendency TO
their ]ethargy and disease. Inaction Of
the kidneys, it should be remembered, is
the first stage Of those dangerous renal
maladies against which the resources Of
medical science are too often exhausted
in vain. Peril Is forestalled by the Bit
ters, which averts Bright's disease, dia-
betes, dropsy, gravel and the troubles
arising from weak bladder. Equally
efficacious is it in checking and eradicate
ing malarial bilious and nervous all
ments, dyspepsia, constipation and rheu-
matism. Appetite and sleep are i'm
proved and convalescence hastened by
its beneficial action. Either when health
is slightly or seriously impaired, the value
Of this restorative and preventive medi-
