HABITS AND ASSOCIATIONS.
We are Influenced in our habits,
character and destiny by. our asso-
ciates. which is proved by the philoso-
piers. Our character is indicated by
our companions. and a business man
would not give a young man a position
of responsibility if he saw him spend
ing his time with loafers. Our destiny
is effected by our companions and if
we fall into their habits it means des-
tiny. Kingly associates mean kingly

and we become like him by associating

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful It Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal Is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same
cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of it the better; It is not a
drug at all. but simply absorbs he
gases and impurities Arrays present in
the stomach and intestines and carries
them out of the system.
Charcoal sveetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating
onions and other Odorous vegetables.
Charcoal enec.-ally clears and i'm

teeth and further acts as a natnraI
and eminently safe catharUc.

Ask your doctor if when

who, when ordered to get

some wine, cordial or extract
of cod liver oil and think it IS
the same thing or better. #

Gratitude

For more than a year I
had been a sufferer, completely
broken down. I had not slept
but two or three hours any
night for weeks. I had such
awful misery in my head, and
oh, 1 was SO irritable. I could
not depend upon my judge
ment, and my memory was
falling. I realized that I was
losing my mind, and I thought
the grave, or worse, the asy-
lum, would be my doom. My
doctor said my case was be
yond the reach of medicine. I
went to a druggist and told
him my condition. He recon-
mended DIR. Miles Nervine;
he was pretty sure it would
help me, so I bought a bottle.
That night I took a table
spoonful, and fell asleep in 4
few minutes, the first rest I
had in weeks, and oh, I will
never forget that sweet sleep
while I live. I have continued
taking it. and sleep like a baby,
and gain rapidly"

We cannot get a right understand

We cannot get a right understanding
Of Christian EndeavOr work until we
realize thai it is For Christ" This
sublime motive must underlie every
true endeavor. 1t is not ourselves, nor
society. nor the Christian Endeavor
is the object of our efforts. but our di-
vine Master himself. Our pledge is
to do whatever He would like to have
US do.
h ode of Christ IS not a set of
rules. His law is a spirit rather than
a list Of regulations. To promise to
do whatever" He would have US to
do is more in accord with the genius
of the gospel than to specify certain
deeds which we will perform Christ
wishes to be completely sovereign over
us, so that in every unexpected and in
conceivable situation we nay obey his
Will.
When we do the truth. we know we
soon know more truth to do.
The pledge itself is worth studying
over; while many societies have modi-
fed its provisions, yet the form OF
words remains the same for the greater
part of the Christian movement.
Trusting in the Lord Jesus Christ
for strength, I promise Him hat 1 will
strive to do whatever He would like
to have me do; that I will make It the
rule of my life to pray and read the
Bible every day, and to support my
own church in every way, especially
by attending all her regular Sunday
and midweek services, unless pre-
vented by some reason which I car
eonscientiously give to my Saviour
