STRIVE. WAIT AND PRAY.

Strive yet | DO not promise
The prize YOU dream Of to-day
Will not fade when you think to grasp It.
And melt in your hand away:
But another and hOlier treasure,
You would now perchance disdain,
VIII come when your toll Is over,
And pay you for all your pain.
Wait; vet ] do not tell you
The hour you long for now
Will not come with its radiance vanished,
And shadow upon it's brow:
Yet far through the misty future.
With a crown OF starry light,
An hour of JOY YOU know not
Is winging her silent flight.
Pray; though the gift you ask for
May never comfort your fears
May never repay your pleading
Yet pray. and with hopeful tears
An answer. not that you long for,
But diviuer, will come one day:
Your eyes are too dim 20 see II.
Yet strive, and wait. and pray.

A REPUTATION.
How 1t Was Made and
Retained In Akron.

A good reputation is not easily
earned, and IL was only by hard, con-
slstent work among our citizens that
Doan's Kidney Pills won their way
to the proud distinction attained in
this locality. The public endorsement
of scores of Akron residents has rem
dered invaluable service to the com
munity Read what this citizen says:
Mrs. f. NJ. Wolf, of 800 South Main
ST., says: Before using Doan's Kid
ney Pills sold by Lamparter & Co
l had a dull, grinding, aching over my
kidneys, was lame in the small of my
back. my kidneys were sluggish, and
/ suffered from a feeling of WEAKNESS
the whole time. The treatment re-
moved the trouble in my back and my
kidneys acted normally. They are a
splendid remedy" .
