God held soul within his hand one day,
fair young SOUL with untitled eyes for sight,
With ears for sound attuned, with hands Alright
For action, all alert to work her way.
The lips unchorused in the earth's deep speech
Like bow that never shot an arrow out
The virgin heart, athirst to be devout
To any love which came within her reach
God put that soul upon the worlds highway
The jostlng crowd soon soed her raiment fair:
The pipers. with rude testing, babe her play
The unloved ones of earth laughed at her prayer;
Till God. down reaching her glance astray
And caught her back to rest within his care

riding down the road reading a letter

some reason did not clear the track, al

The Easy Pill.

DeWltt's Little Early Risers do not
gripe nor weaken the system. They
cure biliousness, jaundice, consti-
patton and inactive livers, by arousing
the secretions, moving the bowels
gently, yet effectually, and giving such
tone and strength to the glands of the
stomach, liver and bowels that the
cause of the trouble is removed
entirely. These famous little pills
exert decided tonic effect on the or
gans involved. and IL their use is con-
continued for few days there Will be
no return of the trouble. George A
