THEY HELPED HER
TO FIND HEALTH
A Maine Woman Tells What Dr..
Williams Pink Pills Will Do
for Her Sex,

Neglect or improper treatment OF
woman's ills almost inevitably leads tc
| train OF unfortunate results and ire
quently to lifetime of misery. In time
almost every organ of the body becomes
affected, the nervous system is broken
down, the digestion is weakened and
symptoms of kidney trouble develop.
Women who become pale and lose
weight and ambition and are subject to
headaches and fainting spells, need such
q tonic as DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
They are especially adapted for girls
and women of all ages and give just the
aid required to bring back health and
strength to the nervous and exhausted.
What DR.. Williams Pink Pills will dc
for women is illustrated in the expert
ence of Miss Florence A. Jordan, of No.
50 Perham street, Harrington, Me. She
says:
"A cold brought on trouble to which
my sex is subject and for two years
suffered without relief until I tried DR..
Williams Pink Pills. was very irreg.
ular and at intervals suffered so that
was obliged to stay in bed. My blood
seemed to CONCEAL and my body was
covered with purple spots, my heart
f1uttered. slight exertion tired me, was
pale and my strength and ambition were
gone. Sometimes my feet swelled sc
that could not keep on my shoes.
"After consulting several doctors and
finding no relief in their medicines, an.
other physician advised me to try DR..
Williams Pink Pills. He said they had
helped his daughter who suffered the
same way I did, and so got supply.
Two boxes brought about the desired
results and few more restored me to
complete health
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent by mail, postpaid
Oh receipt of price, so cents per box; six
boxes for $3.50, by the DR.. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.
The pills are guaranteed to be safe and
absolutely harmless to the most delicate
constitution. They contain no morphine,
opiate, narcotic nor anything to cause a
drug habit.
A booklet, "Plain Talks to Women. "
will be sent free to any woman suffer
ing from weakness. 1t explains fully
why DR.. Williams Pink Pills are suited
to the needs of weak women of all ages.

has justified such salary to that COM
munity. The estimate placed upon that
service is that community affects
teaching throughout the State. Fol
over q century educators have insisted
in the words of Rousseau that the
training of children is a profession
Yet today Maine is one of four States
in the Union that make no State re-
quirement upon those who would enter
it's ranks.
1t is well known that our Maine
teachers are among the poorest paid.
This condition and that of the lack OF
professional requirements of teachers
are inseparably linke'.. The public is
not likely to pay and should not be eX-
pccted to pay high salaries to the per-
sons who, having no educational fit
ness. are given places in the school
room.
The main argument for more rigid
requirements of those who would teach
is not by any means, however, that such
requirements would result in higher
salaries to teachers. Such an argu-
ment has no place in the discussion. 1t
would imply that the schools are sup

and no one here would assent to that
idea. But looking further. to those 70,
whose interests the schools are. OF
should be, supported, the argument for
some reasonable requirements of those
who would attempt to teach assumes
special strength.

whom we are especially concerned today

plies reorganization of our school
system It is my own opinion so far as
the elementary. school is concerned
such reorganization is hardly demand
ed except in so far as hand work
through manual training is given
greater emphasis. l DO believe that it
implies new obligation on the commune
ity to Ave in special schools, in night
and continuation schools the same OPP
portunitjes to the great majority who
are to serve the world by the toll of
their hands that are now freely given
to those whose service is to give
through the more distinctly literary
callings.
Whatever new demand this extension
of opportunity may make upon our
people no one who reads Alright their
faith in education or reviews the ben
efits it has already conferred upon the
nation can doubt that such demands
will be fully met.

LURE OF CONQUEST
is PASTORS THEME.

A comparison of mans conquest OF
earth's mysteries, the secrets and
forces of nature and the progress of
pioneers in research into the field of
things spiritual, was the theme of the
Rev. DIR. Henry X. Denlinger's sermon
yesterday morning at the High Street
Presbyterian Church. Mr.. Denlinger
said, in part:
Such a celebration as the Hudson
Fulton brings home to the mind the
human races spirit of adventure. What
is the secret of this spirit? 1t is the
desire to over-pass and break down the
unknowable, to extend the borders OF
the movable. 1t is the putting OF
matter and force beneath the victorious
feet Of n1an. 1t is making the world
manageable. 1t is mind and will in
MAJ Achieying mastery over the world
the universe In which he lives. The
descendants of Henry Hudson in our
day are DIR. Cook and Mr.. Peary, and
the descendants of Robert Fulton are
Mr.. Curtiss and the Wright brothers.
How shall scientific and material
progress be made to voice the ideals OF
justice and brotherhood, of liberty and
holy love? They must be captured for
Christ, for God. 1t Is this that makes
religion adventursome. 1t Is hard to
be a Christian, because to be a Chris
tian Is to be striving to make the will
of a holy and loving God prevail among
men. Prayer itself is an adventure
Prayer is the sextant of the invisible

HUDSON'S BIOGRAPHY TALE
OF DISASTER AND FAILURE.

The Rev. william C. O'Donnell, pas
tor of st. Paul's M. e.. Church,
preached last night On the great dis
coverers and discoveries of the ages
His text, from Matthew vii, 7, was,
seek and we shall find" In part he
spoke as follows:
1.-THE seeker is the explorer; the finder
is the ~discoverer. Civilization would
have grown stagnant a 1t been shut
up within the limits of the old world,
and the best of history would never
have been written.
"There Is still another realm open to
the explorer. Man. a spiritual being,
must know the avs of the spirit: he
must find out how to plan a life, how
to shape a destiny, how to enter into
the purpose of the Creator, how to
achieve love, Joy, peace. In this realm
all men may become discoveries.
"Hudson's biography Is the story OF
failure. In 1907 he, in a small ship with
ten sailors, tried to find a northeast
passage to the Orient and failed. In
1908 he tried again n failed. In 1909
he sailed up the great river that now
bears his NAME, thinking 1t might be
a strait through the continent. He
was disappointed. In 1910 he entered
Hudson bay, never to- leave it, but to
be abandoned on its chilly waters by a
mutinous crew. The curtain fell on a
drama of disaster. Poor Hudson!'

DIR. AKED DEFENDS
ELIOT'S NEW RELIGION.
Living in a New Day, He Says
in Sermon.

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-That DR..
Eliot's religion of the future" is the
present accepted creed of a great num-
Der and that this religion, outlined by
the president emeritus Of Harvard at
the Summer School of Divinity, Is all
right with the exception of a few mis-
sions was the opinion expressed last
night by the Rev. DR.. Charles F. Aked
in the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church.
DR.. Aked's present religion has all
the points of DIR. Eliot's future re-
ligion" with the gaps filed in, accord
ing to his arguments last evening. The
most tremendous gaps, he said, were a
personal Christ and an individual NOR
tally.
"One has to remember that we are
living in q new day, when many have
grown. out of their old way of thinking
and have not yet formulated a new"
said DIR. Aked. AT the present time
1t is as If the church were moving
out of an old house into a new and
large one. Some things are worn out
and have to be Enlightened up. Other
things, nave to be given away or
thrown away There is a little dust.
The church is moving out into larger
premises. where it can entertain all OF
its friends.
II have no hesitancy in saying that
the religion of the future is the re-
ligion today of a large part of educated
English speaking people. 1t is now
the religion of people who read books
and write books. 1t is the religion that
is now preached from the intellectual
pulpits."

$500 GIFT TO PASTOR
ON RETURN FROM VACATION.
The Rev. DR.. James |. Vance the
Recipient.

After spending the summer with his
family at Blowing Rock. N. c.. and
Nashville, Tenn. the Rev. DIR. James
/. Vance returned to his home at 27
Washington street, on Saturday and
occupied the pulpit in the North Re-
formed Church at the morning and eve-
ming services yesterday.
A pleasant surprise awaited his ar
rival home in the form of a check from
one of his flock for $500 towards the
building fund of the new parish house.
DIR. Vance would not disclose the name
of the donor. DIR. Vance said his church
is progressing. and that the main effort
of the immediate future will be the
aim to make the parish building a real
ity. The new building will be erected
on a plot of ground owned by the
church on Bridge street. east of Broad,
and forming an l. to the church prop
erty. 1t will contain class rooms, a
library and gymnasium for the boys
as well as meeting rooms for various
church societies. In speaking of his
vacation DIR. Vance said:

I paid a visit to my old church in Nash
vile and preached a sermon there. The
Southern people are much interested
in the discovery of the North Pole
They believe both Cook and Peary

HUDSON'S MANY FAILURES
LESSON AT PRESENT DAY.

Yesterday vas Hudson Fulton day at
the First Congregational Jube Memo
rial Church.. The Rev. I. Arid Moffat
at the morning service preached on
Hudson and at the evening service
on Fulton"
After declaring that Hudson was not
Dutch, inc that he knew so little of
the language that he had to have an
interpreter to explain to him the terms
of his contract with the Dutch COM
pany for which he sailed; that his
name wasn't Hendrick, and that he
was by no means the first to sail the
Hudson, Mr. Moffat said:
-Four times Hudson braved the ice
n fogs OF the cruel North In his
search for that short cut to the Orient.
Two failues discouraged his English
hackers, but Hudson wouldn't give up.
He turned to Holland and sailed from
Amsterdam on the same old quest.
Again he failed and was summarily
dismissed by his employers. But three
times and out wasn't his motto.
Dauntless, he set out a fourth time.
And so we honor him today for his
courage. AS we ponder the story OF
his life may it nerve us {, a brave
perseverance that will merit us, now
or in the future, something of his
glory"

SCIENCE OF SOCIETY MOVES
BUT SLOWLY, HE THINKS,

In st. Stephens Church last night
the rector, the Rev. E. A. WATSON,
spoke on 1.-The Other Side" He said
in part:
1--WE seem to be clarifying ourselves
at least as much as Hudson or Fulton;
and no doubt we have abundant rea-
son. This age can hold up its head
with the best of them. We are improv-
ing the talents transmitted to us by
the great men and the common men
who went before. We are proud of
Hudson and Fulton. No doubt they
would be a. proud of us. They ana
their like are worthy ancestors of a
worthy people.
All sciences and their arts have
made unbelievable strides-all but the
science and art of society. Govern
mont Is not so much of an advance
over a century ago. The science OF
society rides still In Thea stage-coach
and sends it's messages by mounte
courier.
9Th number of deaths from violence
and accident in the United States In
1900 was 1873. In seven years after
it had grown to 107, $50. an Increase OF
90, 900. The population increased II per
cent: the number of accidental and
violent deaths 81 per cent.
'The horrors of war are. in COM
p~arison, trivial. In seventeen months
we do to death as a as died in the
four years of our Civil War. Gettys-
burg was one of the bloodiest battles
of history. In one year of peace we
Americans kill enough for nineteen
Gettysburgs."
