Once we knew a man who was
known throughout his corner of the
state where he lived as "The Great
Starter" He was starter of many
enterprises, and all of them failed
promptly and decisively.
1t is not that kind of a career that
we advise when we urge, "Be a
starter" And yet, every noble or
ganization in existence, every splen-
did philanthropy, every Christly in
stitution, every lesser means of doing
good among the children of men, has
had its starter. And the good things
for which the world is waiting, the
reforms for which society is crying
out, the woes that need comfort, the
wrongs that need righting, the little
difficulties and perplexities of our
lives, all alleviations of the human
lot, large or small, for which we may
hope in the future, must have their
starters. And why should not you be
one of them?
"But l am not original" is the fire.
quently heard excuse. 81 cannot
lead; can only follow"
This common impression of the
scarcity of originality is responsible
for much of this worlds stagnation.
AS matter of fact, in almost every
case the man who is original enough
to see an opening for Christian work
is original enough to fill it Every
one is original in some way. The
rarest kind of originality is the clear
vision of lack. Thousands have a
vague dissatisfaction with affairs, for
everyone that can put his finger on
the cause of the dissatisfaction. If
you can do that, you can probably
lay your hand on the remedy.
Are you troubled by the muddiness
of the cutters? Then start a village
Improvement society. Do you per-
ceive how corrupt the city govern
ment has grown? Then start
municipal league. Do you worry
over the church's neglect of the
children? Then start a Sunday school
and a Christian Endeavor society.
For every lack there is somewhere a
supply, for every wrong right, and
half the strength spent in useless
complaining would suffice to discover
the right and apply it to the lack and
the wrong.
| The scarcity of starters is due not
| to the modesty which is commonly
alleged, but to sloth and cowardice.
1t is so much easier to find fault than
to find remedies. 1t is 80 much safer
to deal in generalities than in definite
plans. 1t is so pleasant to get repu-
tation as sharp critic, and 80 difficult
to earn and keep a reputation as a
constructive organizer and reformer.
And yet it is part of our Christian
duty to be ''starters" 1t ia ours to
SOW the good seed-all the good seed
we can and wherever we can. Ours
ID only the sowing; it is Gods to give
the increase. We are to be like the
traveller in the the fairy tale, con-
fronted with see mingly impenetrable
forest. In obedience, however, to a
mysterious voice, he started for
ward; and 10! ss he moved onward
the trees and the underbrush parted
before him to left and right, and
made of their own accord his path
way to his goal.-Christian EndeauoT

When physician tells woman suffering with
ovarian womb trouble that an operation is neces-
sary, it of course frightens her.
The very thought of the operating table and the
knife strikes terror to her heart.
And our hospitals are full of women who are
there for ovarian and womb operations!
1t is quite true that these troubles may reach
stage where an operation is the only resource but
such cases are much rarer than is generally sup
posed, because great many women have been cured
by Mrs. Pinkham's medicine after the doctors had
said the operation must be performed.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has
been very successful in curing ovarian troubles In
fact up to the point where the knife must be used to
secure instant relief this medicine is certain to help
Ovarian troubles are easily developed from
womb troubles and womb troubles are very
common that Ovaritis is steadily on the increase
among women. 1t is, nevertheless, a most seri-
trouble, and to recommend wrong treatment
for it is crime for which there cannot be too
deep penalty.
It is, therefore, with full consciousness Of the
seriousness of the disease and the steady failure of
other medicine to cure it, that present for
ran and womb trouble Lydia e. Pinlham's Vege-
table Compound the most certain to help of any
medicine in the world to-day Any person who
could read the letters in Mrs. Pnkhams files at her
Office in Lynn, Mass. would be convinced of the eff
cheney of Mrs Pinkham's Compound.
The strongest and most grateful statements
possible to make come from women who have
escaped the operating table by the of this
medicine Let any woman suffering from these
troubles, or anything which may develop into
them, write and get hrs. PiIizham's advice.
If you are beyond the reach Of the medicine,
you will be frankly told So but, if not, you will
be fully, and carefully, and kindly advised q

Indigestion Causes
CaGarrh Of the
Stomach.

Catarrh of the Stomach caused indigestion
and dyspepsia, but the truth is exactly the
opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re-
peated attacks Of indigestion inflames the
mucous membranes lining the stomach and
exposes the nerves of the stomach, thus caus-
ing the glands to secrete mucin instead of
the juices Of natural digestion. This is
called Catarrh of the Stomach.
