Do Not Give Up in De-
spair-There is Hopel

For ages it has been thought
that Cancer is incurable, and
those SO unfortunate as to have
this dreadful affection have con-
sidered themselves beyond hope of
recovery. The doctors are alb
solutely unable to afford any re-
lief, and the poor sufferer might
we'll consider himself on the way
to an early grave.
1t is now easy to see why the
doctors have failed to cure Cancer.
Their theories have been all wrong,
and hence their treatment mis-
directed. They have made the
mistake of thinking that by cut
ting ,--sv the sore or ulcer, known
as Cancer, the disease would be
gotten rid of, and the patient re-
stored to health. But the cruel
knife accomplishes nothing, for
the Cancer promptly returns, and is
always more virulent than before.
1t has been demonstrated beyond
doubt, that Cancer is a blood disease,
and can not be cured by the surgeon
knife because the blood can not be cut
array.
Several years ago my wife had an
ulcer on her tongue, which, though an
noying, was not regarded seriously at
first. 1t refused to heal and began to
grow, giving her much pain. The doc
tors treated it for quite a while but

The Railroad Mans PRAYER,

The old railroad man was converted
so the story goes, and was asked to
lead in prayer. This is the way he
worded it; 80, Lord, now that
have tagged the devil, lift up my feet
from the rough road Of sin, and plant
them safely on the deck of the train
of salvation. Let me use the safety
lamp of prudence, make all the coup
lings in the train with the strong
link of Thy love, and let my lantern
be the Bible. And Heavenly Father,
keep all the switches closed that lead
off on the sidings; especially those
with a blind end. o, Lord, if it be
Thy pleasure, have every semaphore
block along the line show the white
light of hope, that l may make the
sun of life without stopping, and
Lord, give US the Ten Commandments
for schedule, then when have fln-
ished the run on schedule time, pulled
into the great dark station of Death,
may Thou, the Superintendent Of the
universe, say, well done, thou good
and faithful servant, come and sign
the pay roll and receive the check for
eternal happiness"

Don't be IL Kicker.


Exchange.
If your neighbor is prosperous, let
him prosper. Don't growl, grunt or
grumble. Say IA good word for him
and let it go at that. Don't be a
kicker. Your turn will come. No
one is a whole show. If you see the
town is moving along nicely feel good
about it. Help things along. Shove
little. Push. Try to get some Of
the benefit yourself. Don't waste
your time feeling sore because some
fellow has little more sand and sense
than you have. Do little hustling
yourself Don't be a kicker. If you
can say good word say it like a
prince. IL you are full OF lille and dis
posed to say something mean keep
your mouth shut. Don't be Il kicker.
No man ever got rich or happy mind
ing everybody's business but his own.
No man ever helped himself up per-
manently ~ kicking his neighbor
down. Give Others a kindly word.
Give it literally. 1t won't cost you
a cent and you may want one yourself
some day You may have thous-
ands to day and next year be without
the price of a shave. Sc don't be a
kicker. You can't afford to do it. 1t
won't pay. There's nothing in it. If
you want to throw something at some
body, throw cologne or roses. Don't
throw brickbats or mud. Don't be
kicker. If you must kick, go out be-
hind Il barn and kick yourself, for il
you feel that way you are the man
that needs kicking. But whatever
You do, don't be kicker.

He tried everything he could hear Of
winding up at an Institute but the
drink habit could not be eradicated.
One day he said he would try an orig
inal experiment on himself. He
would take large bottle with him
for day, and whenever he wanted a
drink would pour il into the bottle
Instead OF into his gullet. He denied
himself nothing but went the same
old rounds, a glass OF rye here, glass
of Bourbon there, beer yonder, gin
somewhere else, cocktails everywhere.
When the day was done the bottle
contained mess that looked SO un-
palatable and emitted 50 foul an odor

THE FIRST BABY.
Its Coming is Looked Forward to
With Both Joy and Fear and its
Safe Arrival is Hailed With
Pride and Delight by All.

The arrival of the first baby in the
household is the happiest and most inn
portant event of married life. The young
wife who is to become mother delights
to think of the happiness in store for her
when the little one shall nestle upon her
breast and latterly she shall hear it lisp
the sweet and holy name, mother. !"
But her happy anticipation quickly van
fishes when she realizes the terrible pain
and suffering through which she must
pass while bringing the little one into
the world. An indescribable fear OF the
danger attendant upon the ordeal soon
dissipates her joyfulness.
Thousands of women have learned
by experience that there is absolutely
no necessity for the sufferings which at
tend childbirth; they know that by
the use of Mothers Friend"-a scien-
tific liniment-for few weeks before
the trying hour, expectant mothers can
SO prepare themselves for the final
hour that the pain and suffering of the
dreaded event are entirely obviated and
1t is safely passed through with COM
paratively little discomfort.
All women are interested, and es-
pecially expectant mothers who for the
first time have to undergo this trial, in
such a remedy for they know the pain
and suffering, to say nothing of the dan
ger, which is in store for them. Moth.
