My stomach was 80 bad that it
anected my heart, and many times
when 1 was suffering I thought 1
would die. could not lay on my
left side and would often have pal
p1tation of the heart Last night 1
slept on my left side without any
trouble at all.
I also wish to say that 1 have
known Mr.. Cooper all Of his life and
also his parents before him. and al
though had not seen him for q num-
Der of years until a few days ago, I
had often heard of the wonderful
work his medicine was doing I had
a talk with him and he told me he
was sure his new preparations would
do me a great amount of good, il I
would give it fair trial.
II took him at his word and have
been taking the medicine one week
and can say that I feel much better
than I have for a long time
Not only was I suffering from
stomach trouble, but I was also at
ficted with catarrhal deafness and I
was SO bad I could not hear a watch
tick unless pressed it very close to
my ear. also use Mr.. Cooper's rem
edies for deafness and after a few
applications Of his medicine could
hear the watch tick at a distance of
four inches from my ear.

Odd Preserves.

Perhaps the oldest of all jams

country is made from a red pulp OBJ
tanned from the seed vessels of the
common wild rose of Europe. 1t is
brick-red in color and, as might be
imagined, is in flavor entirely unlike
any other known kind of preserve.
In parts of the South what is
known as peach leather" is made
from peach juice, which is put into
bright pans and dried in the sun. In
the dry state it looks a good deal like
leather, and is eaten without further
preparation, keeping for an indefi-
mite time.
There is commonly manufactured
in Turkey similar product from
grapes, the juice being evaporated to
the consistency of molasses. Some
-four is mixed with it, and the stuff
is spread in thin sheets upon muslin,
being then exposed to sunshine for a
couple of days.
In the same Oriental country wal
nuts are commonly strung upon
Irvine, and after coating them with
a mixture of grape-molasses and SUI
gar are dried. Travellers bound on
long journeys frequently carry these
strings of nuts, which afford much
nourishment in concentrated shape.
r In California a delicious syrup is
made from orange Juice, which, of
course, is quite rich in sugar. And
in Virginia watermelon syrup, which
is said to be particularly delicious, is
not unknown as local product

WOrkmen Eat Much Sugar.

In lumber camps and in the mines
of Canada and the colder sections of
the United States workmen consume
large quantities of sugar in the form
of molasses. Tea and coffee is Of
ten sweetened with molasses, and in
some places is it added to almost
every article of food. The same Is
true to a greater or less extent in the
logging districts of the South, where
molasses and rice mixed together
have become almost a staple diet.
Sugar is contained in large proper
lions in many natural foods, such as
fruits. Sugar of milk is part of the
natural food of the infant.
From consulting the tables 1t will
be seen that the carbohydrates (su-
gars and starch), are needed and con-
sumed in much larger proportions
than either of the other two chief
classes of nutrients. A person re-
quires more than twice as much of
carbohydrates as he does of protein
and fats combined. Hence the carbo-
hydrates might be called the chief
class of food nutrients. They make
up large part Of vegetable food and

There can be no acceptable service

Christ's school for three years, could
do nothing until they were endowed
with power from on high.
Mr.. Moody used to say that ne
would rather break stones on q turn.
pike than attempt to preach without
the indwelling and power OF the
Holy Spirit The great reason why
some of our young peoples meetings
are such a drag is because its mem.
bers do not seek power from above.
To obtain this power we must
earnestly seek for 1t in prayer. II
ye being evil know how to give good
gifts unto your children, how much
more shall your heavenly Father give
the Holy Spirit to them that ask
Him."
To obtain more power, we must
use the power already bestowed.

Self. Conquest a Necessity.

Deeply, I fear, does this age need
to take to heart the stern, inexorable
necessity of self-conquest-not In
self-torture, but yet in earnest watch
fulness; not in extreme fasting, but
in habitual careful moderation; nor
In morbid self-introspection, but in
thorough and vigorous occupation;
not in enfeebling the body by macera-
ton, but by filling its hours OF work
with strenuous and cheerful activity
and its hours of leisure with bright
thoughtfulness and many a prayer;
by these blessed means we, too, even
in the midst of the world, may attain
to the spirit which is dead to the

A Kings Impressions.

King Carlos Of Portugal earned
the reputation OF being the hungriess
Of monarchs. His three chief meals
were colossal and he could not exist
without snack every two hours.
Being very fat. King Carlos was
forbidden by his physicians to eat
much meat. He disobeyed the doc
tors, however, and was especially
fond OF beef, OF which he ate great
quantities.
When he visited England, a few
years ago, he was stopping at Lord
4 Salisbury's country seat, where King
Edward was also a guest. One day
at dinner King Carlos was asked what
had impressed him most during his
short stay In England.
He replied thoughtfully, Well, I
think English roast beef Is very de-
lightful. e

you ais well. 4 Il
All was the reply, @of course.

Bless God for the wilderness;
thank God for the long nights; be
thankful that you have been in the
school of poverty, and have under
gone the searching and testing of
much discipline. Take the right view
of your trials. You are nearer heav-
en- for the graves you have dug, II
you have accepted bereavements In
the right spirit; you are wiser for
the losses you have bravely borne,
you are nobler for all the sacrifices
you have willingly completed. Sane
titled affection is an angel that never
misses the gate of heaven.-Parker.
