men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God himself shall be with them; and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain; for the former things are passed away.
 They are not on the throne, they stand before the throne nearer to it than the angels. They are in the pres. ence of the King, who now reigns King of Kings for ever and ever.
 They are arrayed in white robes and palms in their hands. They are vic- tors, they came out of great tribula tion. Their life here was one of con- flict as we'll as suffering. They wept often for themselves and oftener fo1 others, but now they are conquerors through the blood; all their trials and conflicts are now over, their warfare is accomplished. They wrestled not with flesh and blood but with princi. palities and powers. They fought the good fight of faith and laid hold on eternal life. They had their doubts and fears, their cares and anxieties which are the common lot of us all but now they reign with Him in glory Do you wonder at the rapture of Johr as he sees his future home? Our souls thrill with a joy too full for words as we stand aS if were llnOn Mt PiSpah and view the blessed sight.
 But from these high scenes we must go down again into the common world where tears, sin, and sorrow, and death still are and hold dominion Duties and pains, and trials await us here and often we grow faint anc weary under them.

clad, or sumptuously fed, or rolling in wealth. "Oh! if I can only get to heaven," is the expression of even the purest minded here, for the purer the mind the purer will the conception of heaven be. "And there shall in no wise enter into it anything unclean, or he that maketh abomination and a lie, but only they which are written in the Lambs book of life." "Oh! that beautiful city. with its mansions of With its glorifed beings, in pure garments of Where no evil thing cometh, to despoil what

 They stand before the throne. They are where the angels stand round about them in ranks of glory upon glory.
 THEY ARE WHERE GOD IS, and the Lamb of God the Light of heaven is in the midst of the throne. The very same Jesus, whom they loved, when they were upon the earth, though they saw Him not, but now behold Him face to face. They are satisfied for they have awoke with His likeness and are in the attitude of those who serve Him in His holy temple.

worthless article cannot be advertised

worthless article cannot be advertised profitably.
 Those who know advertising know that the cost of selling a bottle or package to a new user is several times the profit made on it. The only hope of profit comes through continued use; and, without merit, continued use can- not be expected. When a man has made success in advertising a medi- cine, is to me the best evidence possj- ble that he has something good.
 A physician may put up a prescrip- tion for some individual case without giving much thought to it. But if that physician is going to spend fortune on advertising, with no possibility of getting his money back unless he sat- isfies millions of users, he is naturally going to put up the best prescription he can make. If he is wise he will get the best prescriptions for his purpose that any man can make.
 Then there is the question of alcohol
 which MT Box seems to consider such perilous one. All the fluid extracts and tinctures used in medicine must employ alcohol as solvent and pre- servative. Prohibit physician from using alcohol in his prescriptions and YOU would make the practice of medi- cine impossible. If a physician must
 use alcohol in certain prescriptions, shall we complain that a ready made
 medicine employs it for the same pur'
 pose?
 If we are going to avoid the use of alcohol we must banish the extracts and essences used in our kitchen. Fluid extracts, whether they are medicinal or culinary, cannot be made or pre- served without alcohol. The use o1 alcohol in medicine is approved by the
 nharmaocopoeias of all nations. It is l in accord with the practice of all medi' cal authorities in the world.
 The abuse of alcohol is another mat
 ter. but cost alone is enough to prevent ahnse. Alcohol costs about S2.60 pei
 gallon. It is too expensive for any medicine maker to use more than he needs of it. And he cannot hope that
 people are going to take the medicine
 because of the alcohol when good
 whisky can be purchased for one-tifth as much. A dose of medicine which contains even 20 per cent of alcohol does not seem to me very dangerous matter. That means one-tifth of teaspoonful

of alcohol at, time. Physicians do not hesitate to give brandy to a child in teaspoonful doses, and brandy is half alcohol. When one compares medicine with wine or beer, he should also compare the dosage. One takes more alcohol in a glass of wine than he takes in great many doses of medi- cine.
 MT Box is also most unfair in his reference to poisons used in proprietary medicines. It is true that some medi- cines contain poisons in small percent general as in physicians prescriptions. A great many drugs which are recog- nized by every physician as helpful in small doses are poisonous when taken in excess.
 An elderly druggist told me few days ago that he had personally exam ined more than 100000 physicians prescriptions, and, by actual count. 70 per cent of them contained an Opiate. Yet analysis shows not trace of opiate in the largest sellers among the proprietary remedies.
 Strychnine is another dangerous drug largely prescribed by physicians. It is used as tonic and stimulant. Yet this drug is rarely found in pro- prietarieS.
 The maker of a proprietary medi- cine must be more careful about the use of any poison than the physician. The physician is in position to direct his doses and to watch the results. He is able to take chances which no maker of a general remedy will take, for fear that the directions will not be adhered to.
 There are thousands of physicians whose interests are opposed to proprie- tary remedies. They are ready. to de nounce ready made remedy at the slightest evidence of harm from it. Yet how seldom we hear of any harm from proprietaries. I have myself never heard of single authenticated case.
 It is the lack of poison, rather than it's presence, which forms the real ob- jection to proprietaries. It is by using a poison which the medicine maker avoids that the physician often secures a greater effect. The maker of a remedy has too much at stake to use anything which will result in occasion al harm. And this caution leads him often to omit ingredients which he knows to be valuable.
 Proprietary remedies are used not alone by the poor who cannot afford to call physician. They are employed by those to whom expense is of no im- portance. And in ordinary ailments, when a physician is called, he pre- scribes ready made remedy. Proprie- tary remedies are at some time taken by all of us. They are found in nearly every home.
 And I know of no business where fraud has less chance of success than in medicine. A worthless remedy is very quickly found out. A sick person will not long continue remedy which does not help. The lack of merit in food may remain long undiscovered, but if medicine lacks virtue the fact is at once apparent.
 When need a remedy for any or dinary ailmen my choice goes to remedy so good that it made its maker rich. A Defender.

prOclUy
 The fact is that the term "patent medicines" as applied to advertised remedies, is misnomer. Very few of the remedies advertised to the laity are patented. The real patent medi- cines are advertised to physicians alone. They are brought into use al- most solely through physicians pre- scriptiOns.
 Practically all the synthetic chemi- calls produced in late years are pro- duced by patents. The most valuable products used by modern physicians are patented. The coal tar prepara- tions which are most widely used, and the most effective germicides, are among them. All physicians pre- scribe these remedies, yet they know that their owners control monopoly. The largest pharmaceutical houses are not those which make remedies ad- l vertised in the newspapers. They make the remedies which are adver- tised to physicians alone, and they control these remedies absolutely by a patent or trademark. If the medi- cal profession ceased to use these pat ented remedies, half the prescriptions which are written would need to be altered.
 This does not bear out MT Box $ theory that the discoverer of rem edy of real value gives it freely to the world. The custom with those who invent such remedies to-day is to pat ent them and control them, just as does the man who invents new ma chine. And the medical profession recognize and approve the method, for every modern physician prescribes patented remedies more frequently than any others. And enormous enter prises are built solely on this fact.
 The mere fact, therefore, that man controls remedy, either by patent or trademark, does not argue against it. It is rather evidence t0t a man has something which he considers worth controlling.
 If the man, in addition, spends large sums in advertising, whether to phy- sicians or to the laitY, it forms to me further evidence of value. Nothing is more certain than the fact that a

Fat is of great account to a baby that is why babies are fat. If your baby is scrawny, Scott's E m Il s o II is what he wants. The healthy baby stores as fat what it does not need immediately for bone and mus cle. Fat babies are happy they do not cry /; they are rich ; their fat is l a i'd up for time of need. They are happy because they are comfortable. The fat sur- rounds their little nerves and cushions them. When they are scrawny tn os e nerves are hurt at every ungentle touch.

Beginning with today Annapolis is
practically pastorless. With but two
exceptions the entire clergy of the
town is on his vacation. st. Anne 1
has her rector and assistant of the
parish to look after her work. Aside
from that the entire parish work of
the two Methodist churches, the
Presbyterian Church, Lutheran
Church and Baptist Church devolves
upon one minister. the pastor Of Mary
land Avenue Nj. K. Church.
There may be a few deaths and no
marriages for the next month. There
will probably be some sick TO visit, if
none that are bereaved. 1t does ap-
pear to the laity that il would be both
wise and expedient for the ministers
who must needs have months vaea-
tion TO take that month consecutiyely
aud not all in a bunch. A clergyman
is very necessary sometimes, especial
" at q deathbed. A few years ago a
young lady of Annapolis died at the
time in the favorite vaction month of
August. when every minister in town
was on vacation save one, the assistant
to one of the parishes, and be was in
swimming and not accessible.
Ministers must have vacation. They
work hard and earn it, even if some
of the rest of Us don't, but let them
not all take it at the same time.
