AN ORDINARY WOMAN
HANNAH WAS SIMPLY AN OLD FASH
IoNEo CHRISTIAN MOTHER.

Yet DIR. Talmage Says Her Industry, Her
Intelligence aud Her Christian Devotion
Refined Her For Heaven-A Plea For
Our Mothers.
WAsHINGToN, July 10.-This radical dis
course will no doubt have its practical re
suit in many homesteads throughout
Christendom. The text was l Samuel H.
10, Moreover his mother made him lit
tie coat and brought it to him from year
to year when she c..me up with her hus-
5and to offer the yearly sacrifice"
The stories of Deborah ard Abigail are
very apt to discourage a woman's soul.
She says within herself, 1T is impossible
that l ever achieve any such grandeur of
character, and 1 don't mean to try as
though child should refuse 10 play the
eight notes because he cannot execute
William Tell This Hannah of the text
differs from the persons just named. She
was an ordinary woman, with ordinary
intellectual capacity, placed in ordinary
circumstances, and yet by extraordinary
piety standing out before all tho ages to
come the model Christian mother. Han
nah was the wife Of Elkanah, who was a
person very much like hersolf-unromantic
and plain, never having fought battle or
been the subject Of marvellous escape.
Neither of them would have been called a
genius. just what you and l might be,
that was Elkanah and Hannah. The
brightest time in all the history Of that
family was the birth Of Samuel Although
no star ran along the heavens pointing
down to his birthplace, think the angels
of Goa stopped ut the coming of so won
derful a prophet. AS Samuel had been
given in answer to prayer, EllSanah and
all his family, save Hannah, started up to
Shiloh to offer sacrifices of Thanksgiving.
The cradle where the child slept was altar
enough for Hannah's grateful heart but
when the boy was old enough sherlock him
to Shiloh and took three bullocks and an
ephah of flour and a bottle of wine and
made Offering of sacrifice unto the Lord |
and there, according to a previous vow, |
she left him, for there lie was to stay all
the days of his life and minister in the !
sanctuary
Years rolled on, and every year Hannah !
made with her own hand garment for |
samuel and took it over to him The lad |
would have got along well without that |
garment, for l suppose he was well clad by 1
he ministry of the temple, but Hannah !
Gould not be contented unless she was all |
Inc time doing something for her darling |
10y. Moreover his mother made him a |
little cont and brought it to him from year
o year when she came up with her hus-

That
Tired Feeling

Makes you seem call broken up" with
out life, ambition, energy or appetite.
It is often the forerunner of serious ILL.,

troubles. It is a positive proof of thin,
weak, impure blood; for, if the blood is
rich, red, vitalized and vigorous, it inn

organ and tissue OF the body. The
necessity of taking Hoods sarsaparilla
for that tired feeling is therefore apparent
to every one, and the good it viii do you

THECLOVERLEAR BOYCOTTED
DECLARED YESTERDAY BY JOINT
TRAFFIC ASSOCIATION.
A Series of HOmeseekers' Excurslons
Planned-Questiono of Permits to
the Clergy Unsettled-Oth-
er Railroad News.

The Joint Traffic Association in session
at Chicago has declared boycott against
the Glover Leaf and all roads in the as
sociation have been ordered to cease all
business with it after October %. None Of
its tickets will be accepted for transpor-
tation over any of the joint traffic asso-
citation roads after that date. The reason
for the boycott Is declared to be the ac-
tions of the Glover Leaf in cutting rates
and giving sleeping car and chair car
privileges to the holders of second class
tickets.
The roads in the Western Passenger AS
sociation continued their meeting yester-
day. and as on the preceding days the bulk
of the matters disposed of was of routine
nature. The most important matter set
tied was the decision of the roads to run
a series of three homeseekers' excursions
in the near future. The excursions that
have been run this fall and during the
latter part of the fall have not been en-
tirely satisfactory on account of the po-
litical excitement. and the roads have de-
termined to give the people who have not
been able to avail themselves Of the ex-
cursions already run another chance to
look for a home.
The Illinois Central has decided to re-
sumo its trans-continental passenger serv-
ice via New Orleans. Beginning November
1t will run two trains weekly to connect
with the Sunset limited of the Southern
Pacific at New Orleans.

ing to severe sore throat that had made
his voice almost unintelligible. He spoke

shipments of grain and live stock i'm the
territory tributary to this city have reach
ed enormous proportions. and all the roads
centering here are in imminent danger of
