When cultured Athens, arts historic flower,
Too lofty nurtured to retain her power,
Yielded her treasures to barbaric war;
Like glded galleon reft on rocky shore;-
Rude Roman soldiers spoiled her sacred
shrines
And drained from priceless cups their common
wines.
Over her choicest gems quarrclled and fought
And found in purest art but sensual thought
Thus ever will the coarse, untutored mind
Degrade Gods saintliest gifts, to beauty
blind.
Drag from their holy haunts things pure and
chaste,
And all the wealth ofgarnered wisdom waste
And even stain where high it shines above
The lofty luster of ennobling love.

beauties you once g!oried. Where there
is a complete surrender of the best of
each to each, there will never be content
ment with grossness; the completion Of
love will remain lofty and sancti6ed.
But where the act degenerates into lust
it becomes as unlovely as the satisfied
grunting of breeding swine. Then our
little Eden will become closed to us by
the flaming sword Of the outraged higher
qualities.

admitting the truth of all said to you
,os+ week about the compelling force of
,o,e and its moldng influence, so strange
4hot purified thought has forced out
..ossness, so transforming that music is
!, vour soul and poetry on your tongue,
% volcanic that the crust Of selfshness
tbicl, over your heart is rent asunder and
stream of thoughtlulness Tor another
nrsbes orth:-admitting this, say, you
'nrst concede another fact that exists in
o,orv Christian civilization. Every
,orog fellow, no matter how lowly or
io+v. no matter how uneducated or
harmed. no matter how badly or well
brought up, gains from his feeling of
deyoton to one dear woman-choice of
bs beart-a glimpse at least of the real
grandeur of living and ray at least OF
tbe sunshine of life possible to all OF us
forever and ever through woman,
tbe wcak-strong complement OF man.
This lift of better understanding of the
responsibility Of existence comes to all
who truly love; with some it fingers for
ave. with Others it vanishes like the dew
IN A summer morning. But to all it
comes, whether treasured or disregarded.

To avoid the misery depict, bear in
mind that fire is a good servant but
irlghttul master; that the added freedom
Of marriage will have a tendency to con-
luse your thought so that the minor
functional function whose qualification
has not hitherto been essential to your
happy communion with her-is in danger
OF becoming major feature OF the
united life. Instead of being Sub
ordinate enjoyment, merely added that
the mental and spiritual attachment may
De more firmly welded, it will, like a
cuckoo in the home nest, grow and hight
Tor the mastery of all and will succeed
unless you watch. The abuse OF the
physical duties and privileges will, like
the scorching heat Of a desert, destroy
the fragrance and delicacy OF life. The
dividing line between love and lust is
easily crossed, and then, like paralyzed
KING in the lower floor ofhis three-storied
palace, it will be hard to reach the higher
stories of her mind and spirit, in whose

To avoid the misery depict, you must
keep alive in your heart its present con-
viction that perfect love consists as much
in communion with her dear mind and
spirit as it does in securing contact with
her precious body. know you have felt
this way and ought to still, for you like
to think as she does; opinions and beliefs
expressed by her tender lips and her bright
eyes have become for awhile more real
touches of Divine wisdom than you think
you ever heard before. Ofcourse she is
not the wisest mortal, but the effect on
You is Just as good as if she were; for it
draws you to her side and you both
rejoice in being together. Il this feeling
can be made to last, your future will be
one of beautiful growth in wisdom and

been a consistent taker of his own medi-

DR.. True early adopted the study OF
natural history, and especially botany,
and became so proficient in these studies
that he has long been recognized as al
authority. These studies led to the dis
covery of the "elixir" which has been
household remedy for nearly half a CEN

When wear begins to exceed repair in
your body you are going to fall sick. The
signs of it are loss OF flesh, paleness,
weakness, nervousness, etc. The repair
needed is food. You think you eat
enough, and yet you feel that you wear
out more tissue, energy, nerve-f force, than
your food makes for you. The difficulty
is that you do not digest enough, And
this is so serious it is worth sitting down
seriously to think about. If you can't
digest what you eat, take a few doses of
Shaker Digestive Cordial. The effect of
it Will be to increase your flesh and make
you feel stronger. You won't fall sick
Proof that it is in control of your repair
apparatus. It's easy enough to test this
for yourself. Take few bottles of

To VOTERS, III have no doubt that
in a general way you agree with the state
ment that "the people" can be trusted;
perhaps because the phrase sounds famil-
lar, as nearly every one asserts it. But
like our assent to a great many scraps OF
proverbal wisdom, We too often agree to
statements without thinking Of al that
they imply. Please look with me a little
deeper not that would shake your faith
in the people, but rather that you may

A PECULIAR FACT.

Thousands of People Have Dyspepsia in
It's Worst Form and Do Not Know It,
A weak stomach is the cause of
about nine-tenths of all diseases, yet
in most cases the wrong thing is treat
ed and the true cause overlooked.
This is because weak digestion pro-
duces symptoms resembling nearly
every disease because it weakens and
disturbs the action of every nerve
and organ in the body; poor digestion
causes heart trouble, kidney troubles,
lung weakness and especially nervous
break down or nervous prostratiOn,
the nerves cannot stand the wear and
tear unless generously fed by we'll d.
gested, wholesome food.
Keep the digestion good and no one
need fear the approach of disease.
Mrs. Fl. M. Lee, of Rochester, N. Y,
writes: For the sake of suffering hu-
manity l want to say that from child
had very weak stomach, threw up
my food very often after eating and
after few years nervous dyspepsia
resulted and for more than twenty
years have suffered inexpressibly.
l tried many physicians and adver-
tised remedies with only temporary
relief for nervous dyspepsia and not
until commenced taking Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets last September, six
months ago, have been free from SUI
ferlng caused by the condition of my
nerves and stomach; in short, chrome
nervous dyspepsia.
| have recommended Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets to many of my friends
and now 1 want in public way to say
they are the safest, pleasantest and
believe surest cure for stomach and
nerve trouble. 1 write my honest
opinion and will gladly answer any
letter of inquiry at any time and feel
that | am, in my small way, helping
on a good cause.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets is not a
patent medicine, but they contain
only the fruit salts, digestive acids,
and peptOnes necessary to help the
weak stomach to promptly and thor
oughly digest food.
All druggists sell Stuart.s Dyspe psia
Tablets at 30 cents for full size pack
age and anyone suffering from dys-
pepsla, sour stomach, headaches, acid
Ity, gases, belching, etc., will find
them not only quick relief but a
RADICAL cure.

toms and treatment of the various
forms of indigestion.

If asked the question "HaVe you got
a stomach?" it would be safe on gen.
eral principles to answer Eyes," But,
If you are sure Of it, that is, if you
ever feel any distress after eating or
any pains of whatever description in
the region of the stomach, you have
got something more than an ordinary
stomach; in other words, you have
got a diseased stomach. The stomach
is powerful muscle, and the proper
remedy for a tired muscle is rest.
Try the Shaker Digestive Cordial, for
this product not only contains digested
food, which will nourish the system
without any work on the part of the
diseased organs, but 1t aids the diges-

fling sum of 10 cents. Sample bottles
at this price are carried by all drug
