The Christians Path to Fame-Mark

No man can say, go to! will
now be famous!"--not even good
man. Anyone that rises above the
medicre achievement and ordinary in
tellectual treadmill of the crowd in
which he lives will have some recog-
milton. And the fact should be ham,
mered into the young people OF our
churches that little hard work on
some good Cooks, little persistence
in good society, little earnestness In
developing the talents God has given
most of his human creatures will GER
tainly give young man or woman
some proper recognition among folks.
Now, there are lots Of ways of be-
coming famous, and some are very
startling and some are very selfish.
And there are many ways for Chris
tian to become famous, for there are
many things to do and quite a num-
Der of people for whom they must be
done. But from the standpoint of
conscience and of character there is
but one way for a Christian to be
famous. He must use his brain and

of the second great commandment.
This is the only pathway to fame In
which he can keep his Christianity.
And, after all, this IS the abiding
basis of all true fame. The man who
is busy piling up kind deeds In love
for others will find himself some day
standing on a pyramid high above all
the glittering accumulations of sell
fshness. Sometimes one single deed
of perfect love and sacrifice will re-
veal to the world the self-forge.ful
soul that all men reverence, A
mans work must be seen to be good,
for the man himself to be visible for
long. The only abiding basis
for fame is human heart that has
been helped, human life THAT has
been enriched. The fame of loving
kindness robs no man OF his due re-
ward, but only adds premium to all
decent living.

MOTHER AND CHILD
Both Fully Nourished on Grapc-Nuts.

The value OF this famous food ~
shown in many ways. In addition to
what might be expected from its
chemical analysis.
Grape-Nuts food is made OF whole
wheat and barley, is thoroughly
baked for many hours and contains
all the wholesome ingredients in
these cereals.
1t contains also the phosphate OF
potash grown in the grains. which
Nature uses to build up brain and
nerve cells.
Young children require proportion
ately more of this element because
the brain and nervous system of the
child grows so rapidly.
A Va. mother found the value OF
Grape-Nuts In not only building up
her own strength but In nourishing
her baby at the same time. She
writes:
AFTER my baby came did not re-
cover health and strength. and the
doctor said could not nurse the baby

The Senator's Model.

The model had sat, with the neces-
sary rests, for three hours in one
position, the pose of a splendid Sena-
tor of Washington, elegant. aristo-
cratic. He had fine head. He was
quite noted for that, He had been
model for illustrations of many he
roic figures.
But the model with the fine head
wore about the dustiest suit of
clothes you ever saw. His shoes
were down at the heel. His cuffs
were frayed. His collar stayed put
with difficulty 1t was so old.
When the three hours were up he
gave a sigh of relief. for posing is
hard work.. There ls no work hard
er. The artist drew forth his wad
and paid him. The model thanked
him with a grateful smile.
"He Is down and out" said the
artist when he was gone. "He hadn't
a penny to get his lunch with"
And he looked at the picture he
had drawn of him as splendid Sena-
tor of Washington with a complacent
smile OF satisfaction with the fiAe
dignity of it.-New York Press.

A Shameless Conspiracy.

I have seen in an English news
paper the announcement that public
house is for sale, writes the Rev. The
odore l.. Cuyler, and the advertise
ment contains the following sentence:
"These premises are surrounded by
numerous manufactures, employing
thousands of well-paid hands, who in
habit numerous dwellings in this
dense neighborhood. The trade is
large, full-priced, and mostly done at
the counter, approaching $4,000 per
month"
This cold-blooded announcement
smells of the pit Beelzebub himself
could not frame more internal sem
tence than this one, in which the
dram seller tells how cunningly he
has planted his death-trap between
those laborers' wages and all their
needy wives and children. He has
reared his toll-gate right in the very
track of these well-paid hands, so that
he may levy on them at the rate OF
$4,000 per month! For this sum he
retails to these operatives disease,
poverty, disgrace and endless destruc-
tion. We feel our fingers instructive
ly twitching to get such a scoundrel
by the throat until he is as purple in
the countenance as any of his vic
tins.
But why spend our righteous indig.
nation upon a foreign liquor seller
when the same conspiracy against the
wages and honor and lives of work
lngmen is being carried on in our
land? Precisely the crime which the
Englishman so shamelessly advertised
is being perpetrated here in our fac.
tory towns, in all our cities, and in a
majority of our villages.

is being made to secure for these last
of the royal blood of the Wampano-
ags a material recognition of their
rights and of the services which their
ancestors, the mighty sachem Mas
sasoit, performed for the pioneers of
New England. For without Mas
sasoit's friendship and protection the
struggling colonists would have been
swept from the land.-Chieago News.

General Dem and

Of the Well Informed Of tho World has
always been for simple pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy Of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination Of Syrup Of Figs and
Elixir Of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits Of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one Of many reasons why
Syrup Of Figs and Elixir Of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine-manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

THE WARFARE AGAINST DRINK.
TEMPERANCE BATTLE GATHERS
STRENGTH EVERY DAY.

Drink Tnsanity--The Use OF Alcohol
Either Habitually or spasmodi-
cnlly Is an Evidence of Physical
or Nervous Disorder.
The use of alcohol, either habitu-
ally or spasmodically, Is, in view OF
DR.. T. ID. Crothers, who is an expert
On the subject, a symptom of an ex-
lsting physical and nervous disorder.
Men drink usually to anesthetize
diseased brain or assuage form of
suffering. When this condition is
periodical, people are generally well
aware of It, We all know the man
Of the drink storm" who keeps
sober for many days. very likely for
months, but in whose brain the man.
Ia is accumulating; who is nervous,
uneasy, perhaps in actual pain; and
who breaks down at last in an un-
,ontrollable orgy of drink, in which
but one impulse reigns. Generally
we sympathize with this man. He
Is regarded as a more or less helpless
victim.
But what of the one whose drink
storm" is moderate" and habitual?
Who takes his alcohol every day, and
lmagines that it is good for him. He,
Or. Crothers says. is the worst vic
tim of all. And this is very bad
news for the moderate drinker:
Measurements by instruments OF
precision and careful studies of per-
sons who drink regularly. even in So
called small quantities, indicate that
they are the most degenerate and de-
tective of all inebriates, and the most
positively insane in a general sense.
Tests show that the action of alco-
hol is accumulative, and both the
brain and the nervous system are
permanently deranged."
But If the desire for alcohol Is q
disease or insane impulse which
drink temporarily relieves or dead
ems, what is the proper cause and
treatment of the disease itself? Does
1t devolve upon the doctors, or upon
society-upon the State and the mu-
nicipallty-to remove the inducing
causes?
Here is problem which may well
attract the attention of the physl-
clans of the body polite as well as
the doctors of medicine. The fright
full evil of the alcohol habit would
yield II its cause, in the conditions
of stress and nervous perversion
which press upon the brain and
nerves. could be reached by more
wholesome ways of life. That at
least is the deduction from DR.. Gro
theirs conclusions.-New York Mali.
