How We Might Live.

For any of us can there be on the
road Of life a sweeter fruition than to
learn Gods will and to dwell within it,
as within q secure abode? Not 70
make exceptions. not to choose, not to
murmur, not to strain at the leash, but
to feel in every pore of being and in
every conscious breath that Gods will
is best and that it is joy and Gladness
to be used as God pleases.
So living, We can never know defeat
OF disappointment. Failure on the
earthly side may be success Oh the
heavenly side.
If we STUMBLE. we are aware of a
hand that pierced, swift to uplift us.
If we sin, we repent and begin again,
sure that our intirmities are pardoned
and our sins Dlotted out. And the way,
though steep and stony, is forever up,
up, up, till we leave the bounds OF
time to enter into the golden hereafter
Of an eternity in Immanuers land.

Ger1nany's Big Annual Drink Bill.

Germany's enormous drink bill is eX-
blamed in letters to the Bureau Of
Manufactures, Washington, from Con-
suls Britain and Gunther. Each in
habitant consumes a yearly average Of
six and one-half quarts of wine, 129lA
quarts of beer and nine quarts OF
brandy. For a population Of 10000, 600,
the expenditure for liquor is $672,5SS,-
600. The average for male citizens
over fifteen would be S37.36. German
expenditures for schools were 500, 1922
600, for working peoples insurance
S1O4, ,244, 900 and for the army and navy
O3,S47,0O0.

TRANSFORMATION
Curious Resu. Is When Coffee Drinking Is
Abandoned.

1t is almost as hard for an old coffee
topper to quit the use Of coffee as it is
for whisky or tobacco fiend to break
off, except that :he coffee user can quit
coffee and t,.ke up Postum Food Coffee
without any feeling Of loss OF the
morning beverage, for when Postum is
we'll boiled and served with cream, it is
really better in point Of flavor than
most of the coffee served nowadays.
and to he taste of the coLnoisseur it
is like the flavor of fine java.
A great transformation takes place
in the body within ten days or two
weeks after coffee is left off :nd Pos
tum Food Coffee used, for the reason
that the poison to the nerves has been
discontinued and in its place is taken a
liquid that contains the most powerful
elements of nourishment.
1t is easy 20 make this test and prove
these statements by changing from COT
fee to Postum Food Coffee.
There's a reason"

AWFUL PSORIASIS 35 YEARS.
Terrible Scaly Humor in Patches AL
Over Body-Skin Cracked and
Bleeding-Cured by Cuticura.

Bleeding-Cured by Cuticura.
IT was afflicted with psoriasis for thirty
five years. 1t was in patches all over my
body. | used three cakes Of Cuticura
Soap, six boxes of Ointment and two bot
ties of Resolvent. In thirty days l was
completely cured, and l think permanent
ly, as it was about five years ago. The
psoriasis first made its appearance in red
spots, generally forming circle, leaving
in the centre a spot about the size OF a
silver dollar of sound flesh. In a short
time the affected circle would form a
heavy dry scale of white silvery appear
ance, and would gradually drop off. 10
remove the entire scales by bathing or
using oil to soften them the flesh would
be perfectly raw, and light discharge OF
bloody substance would ooze out. That
scaly crust would form again in twenty
four hours. 1t was worse on my arms and
limbs, although it was in spots all over
my body, also on my scalp. If let the
scales remain too long without removing
by bath or otherwise, the skin would
crack and bleed. | suffered intense itch
ing, worse at nights after getting warm
in bed, or olood warm by exercise, when
it would be almost unbearable. W. NJ.

THE GREAT DESTROYER
SOME STARTLING FACTS ABOUT
THE VICE OF NTEMPERANCE.

We Should All by Example and Advice
Try to Keep as Nj any as Possible From
Being Deceived by the Fatal Wine
Cup-President Harrison's Experience.
Walking along the street one day
we noticed, just ahead of US, young
man, whose appearance and actions at
once attracted our attention. His
clothes were worn and untidy and his
step so unsteady that at times he
seemed likely to fall. Soon he drew
a half-filled bottle from his pocket and
displayed it to those about him as he
might have done had it been some
great treasure or something very beau
tiful.
Just across the street were some
other young men who seemed to be
making sport of the poor boy who was
not himself because Of drink and
laughing at the foolish talk which his
muddled brain and stammering tongue
caused him to utter.
But we felt more like weeping than
laughing to see that young man who
might have been an honor to his
friends, thus made a subject Of ridi-
cule because he had yielded to the
temptation of the evil one.
Oh, what a deceiver is the wine cup.
Sometimes boys and girls are tempted
to drink a glass of beer or wine at a
friends home or in company with
other young people who seem to think
there is no harm in it, but if every
one of US thus tempted would stop
me, some other young person who is
tempted just as I am, and if 1 refuse
to drink, it may help that one to be
true to his convictions" how it would
strengthen the determination to do
right, no matter how strongly pressed
to take lust one glass" What q
mighty influence we WELD perhaps
none of us fully realize.
Some young men think they can
drink social glass" now and then,
without ever becoming drunkards, but
they are not sure of that. A young
man once said to a friend, when urged
to leave drink entirely alone, II know
enough to take glass and / know
enough to let it alone" But alas! the
appetite once formed, took strong
hold upon him, weakened his will, de-
stroyed, in some measure, his true
sense of noble manhood, and he be-
came q source of grief to his loved
ones and was brought to an untimely
death.
Oh, how my heart aches when I see
a young man or woman enter saloon.
Had l the power, how gladly would
I persuade everyone to turn away
from the death traps of Satan.
Why cannot every young person and
older one have as much courage as
President Harrison, who when urged
several times by friends to drink
social glass with them, positively re-
fused, giving for his reason the fact
that out of a class Of seventeen school
companions, he alone remained, the
other sixteen having all filed drunk
ards graves, and that but for his
principles of total abstinence he very
likely would have gone down with the
rest.
Let us all, by advice and example,
keep as many as possible from being
deceived by the fatal wine cup, re-
membering the inspired words Of the
wise man, "At last 1t biteth like a
serpent and stingeth like an adder

Ban ON Trailing Skirts.

The order of the authorities at Nord-
hausen, Germany, forbidding women
to wear trailing skirts within the boun-
daries of the town on the ground
that they scatter germs and are a pub
lie nuisance has resulted in an angry
controversy. The police have been or
dered to arrest all offenders, who will
be liable to fine Of So for the first
offence. Obdurate repeaters will be
liable to imprisonment. The women
claim the right to wear their gowns
as they please. and the legality Of the
prohibition will be tested in court.

Grace Comes Through Obedience.

God calls us to duty, and the only
right answer is obedience. Undertake
the duty, and step by step God will
provide the disposition. We can at
least obey. Ideal obedience includes
the whole will and the whole heart.
We cannot begin with that. But we
can begin with what we have. 1t is
better TO obey blunderinglJ than lot to
obey at all.-George Hodges.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the
diseased portion OF the ear. THERE'S only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by consti-
tutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an
ipflalred condition OF the mucous lining or
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and whea it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result. and unless the jnflam-
nation can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever. Nine cases out Of ten
