Story of a Slave.

To be bound hand and foot for
years by the chains Of disease is the
worst form of slavery. George D
Williams, of Manchester, Mich. tells
how such a slave was made free. He
says; "My wife has been SO helpless
for FIVE years that she could not turn
over in bed alone. After using two
bottles OF Electric Bitters, she is
wonderfully improved and able to dc
her own work" This supreme rem.
edy for female diseases quickly cures
nervousness, sleeplessness, melan.
choIy, headache, backache, fainting
and dizzy spells This miracle work.
ing medicine is a godsend to weak,
sickly, run down people. Every bot
tie guaranteed. Only 90 cents. Sold
by G. 4. Taggart, druggist.

A Perfect Child.-Luke 2:40-52.

A Perfect Child.-Luke 2:40-52.
Christ is our perfect example. He
was a perfect child just, as He was a
perfect man. We see from the story
Of His visit to Jerusalem when He
was about twelve years old that He
began the work of His Heavenly
Father at very early age. But He
returned home with them and was
subject unto them.
Our relation to God is similar to
that of child and its parents. God
may have left us free agents and He
does not prevent US from forming
judgments of our own, but He de-
mands obedience from His children
and His way should be followed for He
knows best.
