womanly diseases. 1t is useless to at

NARCOTICS ARE DEADLY
for the nervous woman whose need is
not to make the nerves sleep but to
make them strong, not to numb them
but to nourish them. The best medi-
cine for nervous women is DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t cures nervous
ness because it cures the causes which
are behind nervousness. 1t establishes
regularity, dries the drains which under
mine the health and strength, heals
inflammation and liberation and cures
female weakness. 1t makes weak women
strong and sick women well.

who have neither the legal nor the pro.

they dared to put out their signs with

medical training, medical knowledge or

PHILADELPHIA. Feb. S-The
question of infant damnation
which has been a bone of corten-
ton in the presbyterian church
for decades, and which, at times,
has threatened to disrupt the
church. seems to have been set
tied at last. The committee on
creed revision which has been IN
session here has announced.
among other things, that it had
decided to revise chapter 1C
sec. 3. Of the confession of faith
on the salvation of infants, and
while no definite statement re-
garding the nature of the revi-
sion was made public 1T is gen
orally understood thatif the next
general assembly accepts the
committees report the doctrine
oflnfant damnation will be drop
ped.
The Rev. William II. Roberts,
the stated clerkof the last gen
eral assembly, who is member
of the general committee. gave
out the following statement;
.'The committee has decided
tentatively to revise the doctrine
Of the third chapter Ct the con-
fession by declaratory statement
also chapter 10, sec. 3, on the
salvation of all infants; also,
chapter %, sec. 3, on oaths, and
chapter 25, sec. 6, by revision of
the text. They appointed SUBJ
committees to prepare a final
FORM"
None of the members of the
committee would discuss the
matter, all of them saying that
the formal statement was all
that the public. should know at
this time. From reliable sour.
ces, however, it was learned that
the revision, as recommended,
practically removes the doctrine
Of infant damnatlon from the
presbyterian creed.
The report of the committee
must now go to the next general
assembly of the church, and in
the session of that body the bat
tie must be fought over again.
The opinion is expressed by
prominent clergymen that the
action of the committee. what
ever it may be, will be approved
by the governing body of the
church, although much opposi-
ton is anticipated.

WISE WORDS.

Enthusiasm is the headlight on the
train Of progress.
A gift has no value whatever, save
in how it is used
The successful man never regrets
the cost Of his experiences.
When we get justice-the reality-we
may dispense with charity, the sham.
Never build upon a possibility; there
by you will be saved much disap-
pointment.
The axe cleaves the wood, but it is
largely because Of the weight Of the
poll behind the edge
After eating we allow time for di-
gestion. After reading, how much
time do we allow for thought?
Both man and woman solve many
vital problems by guess. The only
difference lies in the fact that in wo-
man it is called instinct and in man
reason.
Life is so complicated game that
the devices of skill are liable to be
defeated at every turn by air-blown
chances, incalculable as the descent of
thistle down.
Charity must never become a tax;
unless there are in it the sweetness
and tenderness Of free impulse and
human inclination it loses its value
and purpose.
Every moment you now lose is so
much character and advantage lost;
as on the other hand, every moment
you now employ usefully is SO much
