Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation.

Women suffering from any form of female we akness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women only. A woman can freely talk of her private illness to woman; thus has been esta blished the eternal confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Out of the vast volume of experience which she has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge that will help your case. She asks nothing in return except your goodwill, and her advice has relieved thousands. Surely any woman. rich or poor, is very foolish if she does not take advantage of this generous offer of assistance.
 If vou are i'll, don't hesitate to get 8 bottle of Lydia F. Pinkhan'sEegetab ab1e Compound at once. and write Mrs. Pink ham, Lynn Mass, for special advice.
 When a medicine has been successful in restoring to health so many women, you cannot wei, say, without trying it. :" do not believe it will help me.

ON JOSEPH SMITHS TRAIL
Salt Lake Prosecutor Must Show Cause

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Sept u.

before Judge Armstrong and show why
he should not direct the issuance Of
warrant for the arrest of Joseph i.
Smith, president of the Mormon church,
on charge of sustaining unlawful rela-
tiOns with one Of his five wives.
The citation was issued on the petition
of Charles Mostyn Owen, who has been
active in gathering testimony against
Senator SmoOt in the proceedings before
the United States Senate committee on
privileges and elections. On September
II Owen appeared before Il justice of
peace and swo,e to a complaint making

demonstrating to its very gates,
with Gods own face and voice at the
top of it, even the ladder of the cross.
\ perfect acceptance of Him who as
cended and descended upon that cross
will turn every affection into blessing,
and stony pillows and hard beds Will
become means of heavenly knowledge
and sacred experience.
They make our common law divine,
And every land a Palestine.
We need these things so much. Let
us go in quest of them. Without them
life is a barren, beclouded and miser-
able journey, but with them it is trans
formed and glorlfied. Oh, that We may
all discover God, and cling close to

shaken by such movements ever since
the country has been known to history.
The strata of the continent has been
pushed up to heights of nearly 10000
feet, all along the western side of South
America. A large number of volcanoes
exist in the chain of the Andes. but
they are not continuously distributed.
There is one numerous group in Colon
bia and Ecuador, and then gap oc-
ours, Peru being almost free from vol
canoes, the second group occurring near
the southern boundary of the country
in the Lake Titicaca district. Then an
other break occurs, and the third series
OF volcanoes begins just south of San
tiago.
The sectional view shows how the
great range of the Andes rises on the
western edge of the continent and slopes
away to a wide plain towards the east.
The ocean depths off Valparaiso are also
severe, the 6,000-foot line coming close
in shore as indicated in the one-column
map. The strata adjacent to these
great inequalities of height and depth
are in state of great strain.

TRUTHS NEEDED BY ALL MEN,
BY Rev C. @ Wriuh

by new. ~. u. wright.
And Jacob awaked out Of his sleep,
and he said, surely the Lord is in this
place; and knew 1t not-this is none
other but the house Of God, and this
is the gate of heaven.-Genesls xviii,
1917.
In that primitive age when Gods
outdoors was the only cathedral of the
people and the rude wayside altar was
the only chapel-when there was no
scripture nor pulpit nor press for en-
ightenment-this lad fed, fled from
his crime and home and started out on
his first journey in the world. 1t is
strange, hard, alarming experience and
he falls upon some astonishing truths
at the very outset of his pilgrimage.
Jacob discovers the misery of wan
dering. How utterly homesick and mis-
cradle he must have been. To this is
added the consciousness that he is the
guilty author Of all this wretchedness-
that he himself has made this bed he
now lies upon.
Oh, how many wanderers there are
to-day, fleeing out into the world from
homes they themselves have made i'm
possible. But Jacobs heart was not
hardened by his misfortunes. | have
a suspicion that the poor lad wept him
self to sleep that night and that he
murmured his mothers name many
times before the vision came. It takes
a tender, chastened heart to dream holy
dreams and see heavenly visions. His
hard situation was about to be furned
into a noble blessing. His hard pillow
proved a rugged bit of good fortune
in that from its troubled dreams he
discovered the angels. His eyes were
opened to the dear fact of angelic pres
ence and ministrations to the open way
to the beyond-he beholds the very
scala santa up to heaven.
How tremendously these things en-
rich and dignity human life and being.
and Jacob must have matured marvel
ously by this experience in the holy
night of their realization.
But all truths are linked together
and revelations are built, one upon the
other, toward the ultimate light of the
throne eternal, and so more and yet
more astounding things come crowding
through his shining dream, till beyond
the ladder and beyond the angels the
enthralled sleeper finds God.
Behold the Lord stood above It"
and he speaks forth from the deep ex-
perience of all of US when he ex-
claims, Surely the Lord is in this
place; and I knew it not"
He begins to perceive, as ali should.
that ali places are holy where we meet
God and fulfill duty; that every abid-
ing spot may become house of God
and a gate of heaven if We make it so.
Like Jacob Of old, we all have need OF
both to know of and to know God. Nor
can we too soon discover that He is
not far from each one Of US; for in

To Keep Young.

Never retire from active life if you
can possibly avoid it; keep lin the
swim; keep the mind active; never
refer to your advancing years or say
at my age"
To preserve youth, you must have a
variety of experience. The country
woman at forty, although breathing
purer air and living on a more health
full diet than the city woman, often
looks fifty, while the latter at the same
age does not look more than thirty.
BIT her mind is more active than that
of her country sister; that is the secret
Of her more youthful appearance.
Nothing else ages one more rapidly
than monotony-a dead level existence
without change Of scene or experience.
The mind must be kept fresh or it will
age, and the body cannot be younger
than the mind.
Few minds are strong enough to
overcome the aging influence of the
monotonous life which rules in the

CHURCH THAT DOES NOT PAY.
By Rev. w. a. Bartlett. D. D


A Chicago preacher recently used his
church to make the statement that the
church does not pay. 1t seems a poor
return for a man to make whose bread
and butter comes from the pay he re-
ceives from the church. There is a
church which certainly does not pay.
1t is the church so liberal that it has
lost its hold on honest mems lives by
discarding all authority in its teaching
and openly stating to its members that
the time has passed when there needs
to be any special restraint in the man
ner of life and calls for no denial of
self in seeking personal Righteousness.
1t is this easygoing, broad churchism
which has much to answer for. Nor is
this spirit confined to the so-calied lib
eral churches.
1t is the spirit of the age. We preach
ers too often try to twist the teachings
Of the word to suit the demands of a
worldly age. 1t is the story Of the man
and the dog. When the dog would not
come to him his owner said: Lie there,
then" When church members have
said I'VE will not be held down to mar
row and old-fashoned IDEAS" there has
been tendency to hunt up passages in
the Bible to ease the situation and this
has been called the new theology"
Some of us have never believed in
that newer theology or preached it. 1t
is a suicidal policy for the church TO
turn her back to the commandments
Of Almighty God and listen to the de-
mands OF an age which wants to wor
ship the golden calf. If l temper my
preaching to suit the man who neglects
his home, who wastes his substance in
riotous living, who rents his buildings
for saloons and immoral purposes, l
can not expect the prosperity Of heaven
or the respect of earth. If the preach
ers permit the church to drift as I'M
the lines of selfish and fashionable
pleasures where the woman Is devoted
to the world, they are like ostriches
hiding their heads in the sand and
thinking the world is deceived. But no
one is.
The living church has got to gain
possession over the lives and hearts of
the people. And the people are wait
ing for that kindly yet tremendous
voice that shall call them back to a
sober and orderly way of life. The
moral life Of our city is like the man
sick with nervous exhaustion-full of
pains and troubles, from the mayor
who discards the laws down through
dishonest police to the lawless citizen.
And | have the hardihood to say
that, While I believe in the church and
that it is the best institution we have
and l rejoice to be in it, much of the
Waste of life and the low moral tone
is due not alone to the condition of DO
litical and grating ambition, but to the
fact that many professed Christians
have forgotten God and have demanded
to be free from high responsibility.
