not you see how wise Paul was in his humility?
 Seven days pass by, a whole week, and still Peter and Paul do not cease their talking. Paul asks Peter to tell him all about Christ. Then methinks l can see Peter take Paul's arm and say: Come, Paul. want to take you up to Bethany to meet Mary and Martha and Lazarus Come. I want to show you the garden of Gethsemane, where we all slept, and the palace where I denied him. Come and l will show you where he died and where he was resurrected and where he left us for the last time" The days slipped Into the first week, then into the second, and the fifteenth day came. and still they talked. Then Paul said: well Peter, had better leave you now and go and work for my Master. We both love him, Peter. You walked with him in the flesh. I saw him face to face in Damascus. May God help me to testify alright for him" As Paul went up to Jerusalem to put himself under the in- huence of Peter, the great Christian apos- tie, are you and I ready to put ourselves under the care of the noble Christian men and women who are around us7
 And now comes the practical ques- tion where are the modern Arabian deserts? In order to find one do we have to travel to Damascus, as Paul
  We have our Arabian deserts in tho western hemisphere as well as in Asia In our lives as Paul had in his life. think that one of our Arabias may be our sick beds Hour after hour we may have to lie in the invalid's room. Oh how near to God we can then get? Then another Arabia is when death comes to some of our dear ones Alone, aloner' we say. All. all alone! Then another Arabia is when persecu- ton or islander comes. Our best earthly friends may turn against us but God never turns if we call upon his name. Another Arabia may be just after we have been living over again the past, Even now we seem to see the dear faces of our departed kindred come up. We seem to again see the day when we first consecrated our lives to God at the church altar.
 My friend who described for me that trip over the desert told me also about the wonderful mirages. He said they would be travelling along when suddenly ahead of them would be seen a brook and falling waters and mountains and green fields and gardens. They were all there. He would turn to his travelling compan- ion and ask DO you see this? Do you see that?" 'Yes," would be the answer; "I see them all" That of course. was only false vision. But here today in the

and Investigating mind, an earnest seeker after knowledge, and above all. possessed of a wonderfully sympa- thetic nature.
 In 1s43 she married Isaac Pinkham A builder and real estate operator, and their early married life was marked by prosperity and happiness. They had four children, three sons and a daughter.
 In those good old fashioned days it was common for mothers to make their own home medicines from roots and herbs, natures own remedies calling in physician only in specially urgent cases By tradition and ex- perience many of them gained a won derful knowledge of the curative prop critics of the various roots and herbs.
 Mrs. Pinkham took great interest in the study of roots and herbs, their characteristics and power over disease. She maintained that just as nature so bountifully provides in the harvest fields and orchards vegetable foods of all kinds; so, if we but take the pains to find them, in the roots and herbs of the field there are remedies ex- pressly designed to cure the various ills and weaknesses of the body, and 1t was her pleasure to search these out, and prepare simple and effective medi- cipes for her own family and friends.
 Chief of these was a rare combina- ton of the choicest medicinal roots and herbs found best adapted for the cure of the ills and weaknesses pecu- liar to the female sex, and Lydia E. Pink ham's friends and neighbors learned that her compound relieved and cured and 1t became quite popular among them.
 All this so far was done freely. with out money and without price, as a labor of love.
 But in 1873 the financial crisis struck Lynn. Its length and severity were too much for the large real estate interests of tho Pinkham family, as this class of business suffered most from fearful depression, so when the Centen- nial year dawned 1t found their prop erty swept away. Some other source of income had to be found.
 At this point Lydia B. Pinlham's Vegetable Compound was made known to the world.
 The three sons and the daughter, with their mother, combined forces to
The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-02-11

restore the family fortune. They argued that the medicine which was so good for their woman friends and neighbors was equally good for the women of the whole world.
 The Pinkhams had no money, and little credit. Their first laboratory was the kitchen, where roots and herbs were steeped on the stove, gradually filling gross of bottles. Then came the question of selling it, for always before they had given it away freely. They hired job printer to run off some pamphlets setting forth the merits of the medi- cine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. and these were distributed by the Pinkham sons in Boston, New York, and Brooklyn.
 The wonderful curative properties of the medicine were, to great extent, self-adyertising, for whoever used it recommended it to others, and the de- mand gradually increased.
 In 1877, by combined efforts the fam fly had saved enough money to com mence newspaper advertising and from that time the growth and success of the enterprise were assured, until to- day Lydia E. Pinlham and her Vege- table Compound have become house. hold words everywhere, and many tons of roots and herbs are used annu- ally in it's manufacture.
 Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not live to see the great success of this work. She passed to her reward years ago, but not till she had provided means for continuing her work as effectively as she could have done it herself.
 During her long and eventful expe- rience she was ever methodical in her work and she was always careful to pre- serve record of every case that came to her attention. The case of every sick woman who applied to her for advice and there were thousands-received careful study, and the details, includ- ing symptoms, treatment and results were recorded for future reference, and to-day these records, together with hundreds of thousands made since. are available to sick women the world over, and represent vast collabora- tion of information regarding the treatment of woman's ills, which for authenticity and accuracy ! hardly be equaled in any libr in the world.
 With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her daughter in law, the present Mrs. Pinkham. She was carefully instructed in all her hard-won knowledge, and for years she assisted her in her vast correspondence.
 To her hands naturally fell the direction of the work when it's origina- tor passed away. For nearly twenty five years she has continued it, and nothing in the work shows when the first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her pen. and the present Mrs. Pinkham, now the mother of 8 large family, took it up. With women assistants, some as capable as herself, the present Mrs. Pinkham continues this great work, and probably from the office of no other person have so many women been ad- vised how to regain health. Sick wo- men, this advice is "Yours for Health" freely given if you only write to ask for it.
 Such is the history of Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound made from simple roots and herbs the one great medicine for women's ailments, and the fitting monument to the noble woman whose name it bears.

 by the living coa1s of fire from off the altar of the Holy Spirit. You knew they
 were not converted men, They may
 have known the Bible from lid to lid. Their creed or their theology of the head was all right, but the Chrstology Of the heart was all wrong. As they studied the word of God they did not pray like Paul:
 Lord. what wilt thou have me to do? Lord, make me thou servant. Lord. for give my sins Lord, help me to save my fellow men" An, 1t is important to study the word of God. but it is Just as im- portant to pray that God will send down his Spirit upon you and make you like unto his dear Son. Have you your sa- cred Arabian deserts or your regular hours for pleading with and talking to God, as well as your sacred hours Of having God talk to you?
 Can you think of Paul out in that des- ert unless he is praying? I cannot. l can no more think of a prayerless Paul than can of a prayerless Christ.

Good Advice.

A man who would go out and
stir up strife among the white and
black races is unfit to preach the
gospel, " said Bishop Moses b. Sal
ter, i'm addressing the North Missis-
sippi conference of the African
Methodist Episcopal Church, which
met in, Clarksdale last month. The
gospel you preach is a gospel of
peace and not confusion. Let your
every aim be to make friends for
yourself and race.
You are to soon receive your
assignments for the next twelve
months, and l trust that you will
work as never before to unite our
people, to have them to pay their
honest debts, obey the law, stop
buying whiskey and buy land. Do
not mistake impudence for man
hood, because it is not. Teach the
negro to be polite and courteous.
Despise no man because he is white
nor love no man because he is black
but let US love mankind. Others
may teach theirs to hate, but let US
teach ours to love.

MIR. MACMILLEN'S RECITAL.
An American Player OF Promise who Is Still
UndevelOped.

An American Player OF Promise who Is sun
UndeveiOped.
Francis Macmillen, a young American
violinist who recently appeared in an
orchestral concert in Carnegie Hall, gave
recital yesterday afternoon in Mendelssohn
Hall. Mr.. Macmillen's debut was made
on a night which was crowded with i'm
portant musical incidents, and escaped
serious consideration. Therefore it may
now be recorded that this young man has q
real talent for the violin, but-he is still very
Young. Doubtless years will provide him
with an estimate OF the relative value Of
things now denied him.
He will probably learn that bigness OF
tone is not so important as purity and re-
poseful beauty, and this will come home
70 him most forciblv in his study Of the
classic composers for his instrument. He
will probably discard those sentimental
sobs which were heard sometimes yester-
dav in his playing and he will aim at greater
clarity and accuracy in double stops and
chords.
His stvle in q chaconne by Vitah was FAR
from classic and he played the Paganini
variations (those whose theme was used
by Brahms In well known piano piece) IN
a verv slovenly manner. He was happier
in Tartinis d minor concerto and his per-
forTnance Of Bach's well known ohaoonne
mad moments OF solid merit, though as a
whole il lacked breadth OF style as well as
brilliancy OF tone.
