Prepare Yourself for Spring
Take DR.. Greene's Nervura, the Best
Spring rlediCine i'm the World.

gave up the thought of ever being a well man
again. To-day am a well man in every sense
of the word, and all through the use OF DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy,
of which am proudto speak and stand ready
to give helping word to suffering humanity.
MY health is my greatest blessing and words
fail to express the gratitude | feel for DR..
Greene and his wonderful remedy"
No other remedy in the world will do
you so much good as DR.. Greenes Ner-
vura blood and nerve remedy. 1t is the
true spring medicine, the ideal spring
restorative and strength-renewer.
No remedy is so sure to purify the
blood and strengthen the nerves, to
bring back bloom and color to the wan
and faded checks, the brilliancy to the
hollow ana ..dgg ard eyes, the lightness
and elasticity to the weak and weary
steps. the strength, vigor, and vitality
to the unstrung, shattered, and worm
out nerves 1t is, indeed, the greatest
of all spring medicines, for it makes
those who use it well and strong.
People have more confidence in DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy than in any other medicine, be-
cause it is the prescription of a regular
physician and therefore perfectly adapt
ed to cure. DR.. Greene, 81 Temple
Place, Boston, Mass, can also be con-
suited free in regard to any case, per-
sonally or by writing to him.

THE FAMINE IN INDIA.
Interesting Talk by Rev. Henry Fair.
bank. Missionary in India.

Rev. Edward Fairbank. a mission.
airy in India under the auspices of
the American board and seminary
classmate of Rev II. r. Miles. spoke
at the Friday evening meeting of the
church on the famine in India. at the
Sunday morning meeting on his
methods of work in India and at the
opening of the Sunday school session
on the orphan children in India. Mr..
Fairbank has a way of putting things
UNDERSTANDINGS and probably there
was not person in any of the three
audiences who was not touched as
they never had been before by ANYTHING
they had heard or read concerning the
needs of some of the people of India
or the work of the American mission.
aries among them.
Perhaps the most interesting talk
was that on Friday night about the
recent FAMINE. Mr.. Fairbank said
that at the beginning of the last famine
there was grain enough in India to
supply the entire population of 80 600
900 people over three years, that at
the beginning of the previous famine
there was enough grain in India to
supply the entire population five years.
and at the present time there is grain
in pits that has been stored there
more than % years. The cause of
the famine is this: There are two
rainy seasons year in India. After
each rainy season the farmers begin
planting. In this planting the farm
ers give employment to 10000. 600 peo-
pie who have absolutely nothing laid
by, who own nothing but the rags on
their backs and who are entirely de-
pendent on the farmers for their liv-
ing. If the rains do not come no
planting is done and those $4,000. 900
laborers have no way of getting
livelihood. The grain is owned by
well-to-do people who care nothing for
the lower caste people. the price goes
up, and the poor people look either to
the missionaries or to the English gov
eminent Mr.. Fairbank said that
Notwithstanding the report to the con.
trary the English government did
everything in its power to relieve the
famine. He related many personal
experiences, which made a profound
impression upon the audience.
