Profit and Loss.

From Harper's Weekly.
It had been a hard day for Mike Finne-
gan, the ''ragman." Many and varied
mad been his wanderings, but no one
seemed inclined to dispose of rags. As
he was making his way homeward at the
close Of this hot July day, through one
of the tenement sections of the city, no
heard a cry above. Looking up he saw
woman at a sixth-story window VIC
lently reckoning to him. Mikes heart
was full of hope as he stumbled up the
broken stairs.
At the top he was met by a woman
holding a weeping child by the hand.
'Hey, mister" cried the mother to
the perspiring Nike don't you take bad
little boys away In your big bag?'

tory which began with the biblical ac-
count of the creation, when the Lord
God said, 1t Is not good that the man
should be alone; l will make him an
help meet for him." That is to say a
fit assistant. But the two words have
become curiously combined into a
"helpmeet," and they are constantly
used as one. Moreover, the confusion
is increased by the corruption of the
words into "helpmate," and Macaulay
writes of the waiting woman who was
generally considered as the most suit
able help mate for person."

But give Jehu a throne-what then? Let

SUGGEST Read the tragedy of Jehu! READ
about the brusque soldier who became
a temporal king, but spiritual pauper.
There is still one more lesson which we
should learn from this swift charioteer
When God called Jehu to the Israelitish
throne, God anointed him king of Israel
by the hand of a humble man. He did
not call Jehu to be the king OF the He
brew people, as Saul, on the Damascus
road was summoned to the apostleshlp
by divine voice from the clouds. Jehu
never talked with God face to face, as
to his greatest opportunity of life by
the anointed hand of a common man.
Thus God has called us in the past to
our highest thrones of spiritual life by
the amounting hand of a mother, a IA
Their, a humble village minister a wife
or a child.
MY brother, are you willing to let the
amounting hand of a dear Christian loved
one of the past lead you today to your
spiritual throne as Jehu was raised
to Israels throne by the touch of
phophet's hand? Some time ago l read
a beautiful story of a young college lad
who spent a summer in one of the little
fishing villages of Massachusetts While
there he became very fond of a little
girl baby only a few months old. He
said to the mother, laughing, one day.
"Wil you give that baby to me for my
wife II I wait for her to grow up?' The
mother laughingly replied, yes, II you
will wait" Time passed on. Summer
after summer the young man went back
to that little town. There year after
year he played with the little girl until
in time she grew up into a young wo-
man. and then he married her. A pretty
story in the sequel. Yes, but it ought
not to be any more beautiful in its Sc
auel than the biography of your own
life When you were a little child your
Christian mother and father gave you to
Christ. All these years he mas walt
ed for you You were anointed by them
for the divine nuptlals. Christ today
as the Divine King is standing by your
side ready to lead you to a throne far
greater than any human throne Oh, my
brother, my sister. as Jehu was anointed
for kngship by the human hand, so you
have been anointed for your divine throne
by the hands of your Christian loved
ones of the past. VIII you today put
your hand in Christ's hand. as the bride
puts her hand into the hand of the BRIDE
groom at tho wedding altar?

Some important Facts Which May

Thirty years ago old-fashioned cod
liver oil had be forced down pa
tents throat. Invalids couldn't take
it, and children wouldn't. But the doc
tors prescribed it, and 1t had to be
taken by force. Yet it cured people
where enough could be taken into the
system, for 1t has ever been the great
est of all tissue builders and general
rec0nstructors known to medicine.
We are now anxious to have every
one know that Vinol Is new form of
this very old and valuable remedy
containing in concentrated form all
the medicinal elements of cod liver
oil, actually taken from fresh Gods
livers, but by an attractive and con-
centrating process 1t Is made without
oil or grease, and 1t is as delicious to
the taste as fresh orange.
Vinol does not upset the stomach
like old-fashioned cod liver oil and
emissions; its strengthening and
healing properties are remarkable.
and both doctors and patients are de-
lighted with it's action.
Many wonderful cures right here In
Bennington have been effected by its
use, and we ask all of our customers
to try Vinol ON our guarantee to re-
turn money, every time it fails to
