still go in Morocco to-day. AT the
duar OF Charifin a man stole donkey

affected by l.. An immediate trans

instance. an ugly blue or red into n
cheerful yellow. and see what results
follow. Yellow not only expresses a
certain cheer, making up as IL does
that is. as well as IL cantor the alb
sence OF sunshine. but 1t conveys also
n certain impression OF elegance. Ii
Is no unusual thing To have some one

I ssrzzsgI fS,, |, ,s'N1SeSSs2H, D

You will never find our Doc
tor out. He is here to give
advice without charge to those
who need him to those who
don't, sometimes. He doesn't
always recommend the Aver
medicines, because the Aver
medicines are not "cure-alls." ;"
Perhaps if we tear a leaf
from his correspondence it will
show you what we mean. Here
is a letter which came last
March.
"DEAR DR.. AVER:
l want your advice for my little boy.
He is getting very thin. He has no appe-
tite. He is fifteen years old. When he
was four years old he had lung fever, but
his health was good until two years ago.
Since then he is failing last. The doctors
here say he has the bronchitis. He spi,s
all the time awful bad. The spits are big,
thick, and white. Yours truly,
Mrs. MARGARET MURPHY,
March 80, 1900. Kinbrae, Mimi"
And this is the way the Doc
tor answered Mrs. Murphy:
"DEAR MADAM:
ave enclose our book on The Throat
and Lungs, in which we trust you will find
just the information you desire.
"You should begin at once the use of
this Cherry Pectoral for your son, giving
il in moderate doses. Then procure some
good preparation of cod-liver oil, ss
SCOTS Emulsion, and give him that, as
well Pay particular attention to his diet,
giving him such nourishing foods as rare
steak, lamb chops, good milk, eggs, etc.
Above all, keep him out of doors all that
the weather permits. There is nothing
tha, will do him more good than plenty of
fresh air. Let him live out of doors all
that is possible. BY carrying out these
general suggestions we shall hope to hear
soon that your son is improving in every
way. Very truly yours,
April 5, 1900. J. c. AVER"
You see, it wasn't only the
Aver medicines that we recon-
mendcd. The first idea Of the
Doctor was to cure that boy.
The result is told in this letter:
"DEAR DR.. AVER:
"My little boy has improved so much
since ! received your advice that want TO
write and tell you how thankful / am.
"When / first wrote you, on March
90, he only weighed 60 pounds, but now
he weighs 81 pounds; and al this gain
since the Sth of Apnl, when ! first began
20 follow your directions.
"Plesse let me thank YOU again for what
you have done for my boy.
July ", 1900. MARGARET MURPHY
Perhaps it was the cod
liver oil; perhaps it was the
Cherry Pectoral. Probably it
was both. But, more than
either, it was the good, sound
advice the Doctor gave in the
first place. We are here to
serve you in just the same way,
and we will tell you the medi-
cine for your case or tell you
what medicines TO avoid.
Five out of ten Of our cor
respondents need a doctor
rather than a prepared medi-
cine, and we tel them so. If
the doctors only knew it, we
are working with them every
day.

Converting the Chinamen.

When 1 first met him the Greek
archimandrite had been 40 years in
Peking, and had never been anywhere
else except for two caravan journeys
to Russia. He was an elderly gentle
man, with a smile like BENJAMIN
Franklin's, and was famed at the Chi
nese capital for keeping the best wines
and the best tobacco. He was a
bachelor, and today 1 recall him when
I try to fancy Epieurus in the body.
He wore the Chinese pigtail and
clothes to match, and people said he
could give Chinese mandarins points
on etiquette. He gave me, at least,
many happy hours, for he talked with
Afrankness and facility rarely united
in a Russian, least of all an archi-
mandrite.
One day, for instance, asked him
bluntly how many converts he had
made. He answered that he thought
he had made one, but he did not wish
to be taken as stating this positively.
When returned to China after an in
terval Of 21 years, all my inquiries led
me to respect the honesty of this Rus
sian. He said, furthermore:
II have been here 40 years, and per-
haps have converted one Chinaman.
When missionaries tell you that they
have done more than that, do not be-
leve them."-Poultney Bigelow In
