We bend our energies with longing eyes

pinnacle of fame and glory it may be

for Immortality.
"And love, the greatest Of these three;
love Of God, our country and our fellow

Love wings and wakes the soul, stirs her to

Her flight aloft, nor e'er to earth decline
Tis the irst step that leads her to the shrine
OF Him who sla kes the thirst that burns with
in"
"For this, brothers, is the fundamental
principle upon which our noble order is
love, fidelity is love. Our God is the
God of Jew and Christian alike, the God
OF that book OF laws on which we say ie
founded justice, the God that commands
justice and charity. fidelity and brother
ly love. They are virtues without a
peer, they are beautiful, they are en-
nobling. These dead brothers aspired
to them. To be just and faithful is
Godlike, and brotherly love is divine.
We compass them all with charity, the
sweetest exhalation of th5 human heart.
There is charity Of thought and word,
as we'll as charity which relieves the
distressed, visits the sick, and tenderly
buried dead brother. 1t is that charity
which always has a kind word, which
can tiud a good motive, which never says
hurtful thing Of man or woman, which
always sees the good, and fails to see the
weakness OF brother We are blind
sometimes to the kind thoughts, the good
words, the generous deeds Of our neigh

faults across the skv for the world to see.
NO creature accursed can be,
But some good thing in him loving eye can
see"
"This is charity. The faults of our
brothers we write upon the sands, their
virtues upon the tablets OF memory.
Love does not die. Memory does not
words do not die. You will pick them
up some day across the great divide as
pearls for the crown OF immortality.
Does the soul which seeks these things
die Does the spirit which strives for
the good and the beautiful and the true
perish before reaching itsend? Does that
spirit. God like in intelligence the coun-
ter-part OF the Creator, the image of the
Almighty, go out forever at one fell
stroke!
mo, it is not SO. The human soul
will not be annihilated. 1t will co-exist
with it's creator. 1t is as imperishable
as the indestructible God 1t is as death
less as eternity. L. will endure
when earth has faded whirl of smoke,
And the last withers in the wrinkling
skies"

in the whole scheme OF creation. A con
ception which could emanate only from

An eminent physician says that
"Women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician" This statement
should be qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this is only in re-
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There can be no more terrible ordeal
to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked, even by her family physician
This is especially the case with UNI
married women.
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot get the proper information to
work on?
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now CORE
spending with Mrs. Pinkham. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
SO that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients,
through her correspondence with them
than the physician who personally
questions them.
Ifyou suffer from any form of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass, and she
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Pinkham, is appreciated, the thou
sands of letters received by her prove.
Many such grateful letters as the fol
lowing are constantly pouring in.
