not despair. But should he never re-
turn. there is One who never forsakes,
who is ever ready to comfort and bless.
Tomorrow morning the Easter bells
will ring to recall the scene of His
death and resurrection. So may we all
triumph over sorrow and the grave II
we will but trust in Him."
The words and manner of the Sister
stirred the girl strangely. Looking
into the tranquil eyes of the holy wom-
an, she felt wave of peace throughout
her whole being. The flush died
out of her cheeks, the sob died in her
throat, and going to Sister Cecilia she
put her arms about her saying quietly:
ST know what you say is true, even
though I rebel against the teaching of
the church. They who are of it, not
you, sweet Sister, but the others, the
neighbors, even my mother, have been
so harsh and cruel, have said such
1ieve in the religion they protested.
But I felt I must tell my sorrow to
some one or I should die. And so
come to you who are always gentle and
kind"
''You did right, Marie, and I will do
all I can to help you. All, the tears, the
bitter tears that love has wrung from
confiding hearts. But who shall say
that unselffsh devotion and sacrifice in
the manner of love shall find harsh
Judgment in the eyes of Him who
taught us love is the greatest of all the
virtues, the very soul of life"
The Sisters words were like PRAYER
and benediction and Marie went away
feeling greatly comforted She hur-
ried through the districts that led to
her mothers shop and, climbing the
narrow stairway that led to her own
little room, fell on her knees before
the Madonna praying earnestly for for
giveness and guidance.
That night as she slept the room
seemed to be slowly filled with a soft
radiance and the Madonna, coming
down from the wall, stood at her side
with hands outstretched above her
while she repeated softly:
"There is no death, the flowers say;
In faith we hide our souls away.
While tempests desolate the earth.
And patient wait the promised birth
The Southwind chants, there is no death.

Against his falling walls I set

And yet is comrade to the rose.

Thy comfort, shield and final rest.

PAINE'S CELERY

Does a Wondrous Work for a Lady
Who Was Almost Crazed with

Ii is well known that terrible rheumatism,
sciatica, and neuralgia cause more helpless
ness, acute suffering, and agony, than any Of
the other diseases that af1ct humanity. The
great medicinal virtues of Paine's Celery Com
pound make it the only trustworthy specific
for the cure of all forms of rheumatism and
neuralgia. Thousands Of strong testimonial
letters from the most prominent people of the
land, prove that Paine's Celery Compound
has banished these terribly fatal troubles when
all other treatment has failed. Mrs. Mar
garet Bethel of Rrainerd Mimi, after thirty
years of agonizing tortures had desire to end
her life, if it was the will of Heaven; she al
most prayed for the time to lay it down.
Heaven directed, she made use of Paine's
Celery Compound, and is enjoying true life
once more. She says:-

ferer from neuralgia in the head, and also
with rheumatism in the whole body. began

She was a slight young girl, not

She seemed little more than a child,
and yet the light that shone in her
large dark eyes spoke of passion, and
grief and a woman's woes.
'My dear child,'' replied the Sister,

The Sister crossed herself devoutly

Have Seen the World.

There is no city in the world in
which so large a proportion of the
residents have had wide and varied
experience in travel and observation as
Salt Lake City. The explanation of
this lies in the fact that a large pro-
portion of the young men in the Nor
mon church are sent to foreign coun-
tries, where, after learning the Ian
guage, they preach as missionaries.
These return with cosmopolitan ex-
periences, broad outlook and greatly
augmented knowledge.
