THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life. 1t is a feeling common
to the majority of us that we
do not get quite the amount of
happiness we are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend to make US more or
less miserable i'll health takes
first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally to be at
tributed to biliousness. No doubt
q crippled liver with the result
ing impure blood, is the cause Of
more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And whs
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate of pain, loss and fear a.
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind;
like vast cloud 1t hangs over
a multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce
ly be said to have any "bright
side" at all. Hence the eager
ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
have not attained their high po-
sition in the confidence of the
people by bald assertions and
Boosting advertisements. They
are obliged to win it by doing
actually what is claimed for them.
That this remedy deserves its
reputation is conceded. It is
palatable as honey and contains
the nutritive and curative prop
critics of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
combined with the Compound
Syrup of Hypophosphites, Ex-
tracts of Malt and Wild Cherry.
Nothing has zach a record of
success in Scrofula, Influenza,
Throat and Lung Troubles, and
emaciating complaints and dis
orders that tend to undermine
the foundations of strength and
vigour. Its use helps to show
life's brighter side. Professor
Reddy, of Canada, says al have
much pleasure in stating that /
have used it in cases Of debility
and found it to be a very valu-
able remedy as well as pleasing
to take. "eYou cannot be- disap-

China S Cry for Bread.
ayaes sagx ,ssgsk

very weakness, fell at the road side
and soon died with the dreadful famine
fever. For two days the little baby
girl was left alone in her dead moth
er's arms. For there was no one to
heed the little baby's cry. All were
starving and themselves dying of the
famine fever.
HELP THE LITTLE ONES.
DR.. J. s. Stone, well known pastor
from New York city, who is now
travelling in China, also sends his ap-
peal for help: "The cruel of beans
and sweet potato leaves will soon be
gone. Already the people are drown
ing, or giving opium to their aged
relatives, and their children, or selling
their little girls into nameless slave
ry. I love the children too much to
see them exposed to hunger or shame,
without crying loudly to their friends
to come to their help. It is not the
will of our heavenly Father that one
of these little ones should perish. -
The picture is all too dark, and yet
there are bright spots in many places,
where the Christian missionary is bring
ing food and relief to save these peo-
pie alive. From all over the United
States, and Hawaii, from the President,
who this month sent his check for
500, to the school children, who are
gladly bringing their five and ten cent
pieces, help is coming to China. This
help viii bring life and happy future
to many of these vast multitudes. The
calamity that has come to these poor,
yet Industrious people, has been great;
the floods have been most extensive;
the rains came down, it is said, for
forty days without a break, as in the
days of Noah, and yet the sunshine will
come again to China. After the food,
as did those of old, these people are
seeing a beautiful rainbow of promise,
in the missionary who comes with bread
for the hungry, and q message of love
from Christian America.
Hawaii too is finding the truth of
that old saying, that it is more
blessed to give than to receive. =
Many and some. too. with much self
denial, have gladly given to these who Is
need is SO great. May many more re-
joice in having share in shis great
work of Keller, in the Masters name.
And as we, in these summer islands,
have so freely received of our heavenly
Fathers goodness and blessings, may
gladly have part in this new con-
quest of China, not conquest of war,
or of trade, or of civilization, or even
education, but by this timely Christ
like service, help on to something far
greater, a conquest of love.

The urgent appeals for aid, to the
starving multitudes of China, are
strongly moving the great American
people. Every steamer from the Orient,
brings new story of the increasing
need in the famine district. Response
has been quick and ready from all the
large cities of America. Thousands of
dollars have been sent to buy food for
these destitute brothers and sisters IN
China. But thousands more will still
be needed, and the story must often
be repeated "lest we forget
FAMINE OF 1873.
At the time of the great famine in
China, of 1878, several million people
died of starvation. Word comes from
Marking, about the first of February,
that this famine is proving as great,
or even greater, than that terrible
famine Of thirty years ago. More is
known of China today. Transportation
is better, and quicker. The Christian
church is stronger and far weather.
now than then. 1t may be fervently
hoped that generous help will be so con-
tinued, that history will not again have
to record the awful story Of death as
occurred in that fearful year. But we
must all keep at this work of reliee,
if these our fellow human beings are
to be kept from the awful death OF
starvation. Tt is a time like this that
brings out the real brotherhood of man.
kind, and fairly persuades men to ex-
perience the great joy Of giving to
those who need.
CRYING IN THE NIGHT FOR FOOD.
Missionary McCrea, treasurer OF the
Missionary Relief Committee gives q
most pitiful picture of these people in
such extreme need. He says Of these
destitute multitudes: They are home
less, listless, hopeless. Furniture, cloth
ing, all are sacrificed, and still the poor
poverty stricken parents hear the
hungry children cry and moan in the
night, while they themselves crouch
helplessly on a damp mat in some re-
mote corner. I think Of the day when
Christ fed the hungry five thousand,
and T wonder il Christ s people will
follow in His footsteps, and have COM
passion on these hungry thousands of
China, who must perish with cold and
hunger, unless we help them Some
poor parents, who could not stand this
moaning cry for bread, have cast them
selves into the river, with their chill
dren, preferring a quick death, to that
awful cry, and that torturing hunger.

girl year old on the road, seeking
relief, at last from lack, of food, and

MRS HENRY LEE

Owing to modern methods of living
not one woman in a thousand ap-
proaches this perfectly natural change
without experiencing a train~of very
annoying and sometimes p ainf u
symptoms.
This is the most critical period of
her whole existence and every woman
who neglects the care of her health
at this time invites disease and pain.
When her system is in deranged
condition or she is predisposed to
apoplexy or congestion of any organ.
the tendency is at this per o d
likely to become active and with a
host of nervous irritations make life
burden. At this time also cancers
and tumors are more liable to form
and begin their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as sense
of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches,
haebaches. melancholia, dread of inn
pending evil. pa1pitation of the heart,
IRREGULARITIES, constipation and dizzi-
ness are promptly needed by intel
lirent women who are approaching
the period of life when this gr
change may be expected.
