Suffering
Will Not Help Your
Disease, but Will
Weaken Your
Nerves.

Folks who think it is better to bear
pain than soothe it-are wrong.
Old-fashioned doctors used to say it
was better, because they had nothing
with which to ease pain but dangerous,
heart-paralyzing drugs.
But now, that safe remedy has
been found, DIR. Miles Anti-Pain Pills,
it is wrong to suffer. for nothing can be
gained but weakened nerves.
A safe rule to remember is: When
in pain, take an Anti-Pain Pill.
This will soothe your quivering nerves.
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills relieve pain
by restoring the natural secretions, in
which they differ from opium and sim
liar narcotic drugs, which relieve pain
by checking the action of the glands.
They are sure and harmless, and are
the latest medical treatment for the
cure of Headache, Neuralgia, Backache,
Rheumatism, Dizziness. Toothache,
Stomachache, Menstrual (Monthly)
Pains. Also nerve irritations like Sea-
Sickness, Car-Sickness. Sleeplessness,
Indigestion, etc.
Pleasant to take, quick in results.

Pills for sick, nervous headache, and

Abraham and the
Fire Worshipper

For whole week no wayfarer had
come to claim the hospitality of Abra-
ham, the friend of God 1t was his
habit not to eat his morning meal with
out the company Of some necessitous
traveller. He went out and looked in
every direction: he surveyed the whole
extent of plain. He saw only one soil
tary figure, like reed in a desert. AS
the figure approached he saw it was an
old man whose hair was white with the
SHOWS of age. He addressed the strang-
er with a courteous welcome, and gave
an invitation after the manner of the
East.
80 dear to me as the apple of mine
eye. do me the kindness to partake of
my bread and salt. -
The stranger gladly assented; he
leaped up ant, quickened his pace. for
he knew the reputation of his inviter.
The attendants who served the friend
of God seated the poor old man in the
seat of honor. They prepared the table
at command and the company seated
themselves around it. But when they
began the prayer. ''In the name Of
God. no voice was heard from the old
man.
Then Abraham said: go thou that
hast seen many days, l perceive that
thou art not pious and earnest as an old
man should be. Is it not proper when
thou eatest thy daily bread to name the
name of the Lord who gave it 20
The stranger replied: 81 do not fol-
low thy way in this, for l was never
taught it by the Priest of the Fire-wor-
shippers. of whom | am one"
Then the friend of God knew that the
old man was an infdel, doomed to per-
dition. And when he saw this he as
sailed him with reproaches as a wicked
wretch too impure to consort with the
holy.
Then came an angel from the creator,
who reproved Abraham sternly, saying:
81 have bestowed upon him life and
daily food for hundred years, and has
he become an abOmnation to thee in a
single day? What if he hath offered up
his alteration before Fire, art thou,
therefore, to withdraw from him the
hand of kindness?''
