An Old Success Recipe.
Terse Comments for October "a.
why Some Men and Women Do
Not Succeed in Life" Josh. 1:1-9.
BY WILLIAM T. ELLIS.

BY WILLIAM L. ELLIS.
This topic indicates failure; the
Perhaps that is significant. Mems
fear and morbidness contemplate fail
ure: Gods program for men is sue
cess. If God did not design that the
life of every one of his creatures.
when truly interpreted, should spell
success, then his scheme for the uni
verse is not a good scheme, which is
unthinkable to anyone who knows
God. The vigorous theology of an
earlier day wore a gloomy aspect; it
missed the inheritance into which the
thought of our day is entering: name
ly, that God is good, and that he in
tends nothing but good for his chill
dren. The divine program for every
life is grander than that life's ambi-
tions for itself. The best that soar
ing spirit can dream of as q career
comes far short of Gods first thought
for it.
Real success comes only by fulfilling
the divine purpose for the Individual
life.
Canon Farrar said: There is only
one real failure in life possible; and
that is, not to be true to the best one
knows"
The god of this present world is
pot-be1lied, heavy-jawed golden image
called Success. With many cere-
monies, and almost incredible devo-
ton, he is worshipped all over the
world. Sometimes there are Moloch-
immured upon the IDOLS altar. Men
have made this god after the image
of their own thinking. He is Grass,
sordid and material deity: "4.Gold's
and Get There" is his single creed.
Certain kinds of power he confers
11<y< 90 cSx xyf, xxr{r1 hi f1 harf
it is beyond him to bestow peace. At
ter all his favors have been secured,
they are usually seen to be not worth
the cost. That is why the cult of this
idol has produced a multitude of
weary-eyed, faded and heart-hungry
people.
Many of the worlds greatest SER
wants seemed, during their lives, to
be among its greatest failures.
The lofty soul that turns aside from
its Calvary finds, too late, that it has
missed the road to the only perman-
ent success.
Failure to be kind to ones family
and neighbors, and to make life more
Iivable for all whom one touches, may
be a greater failure than business
crash.
The Bible passage on which the les
son is based consists of Jehovahs adj
monitions to Joshua. when the latter
took up the work of Moses. Moses
is dead" is it's first point Moses al
ways dies. Every leader at some time
lays down his work. There is a con-
slant demand for new leaders. Every
death is a summons for a new life.
The passing of Moses should mean the
advent of some Joshua. There are
places to be filed: that is what the
obituary columns of the newspapers

Sick Kidneys weaken the body

life giving albumen from the blood

of poisonous uric acid that goes

ing the seeds of disease. Loss of al
bumen causes weakness, languor,
depression. Uric poisoning causes
rheumatic pain, nervousness, nausea,

a kidney treatment, and the best
remedy is Doan's Kidney Pills. Great
Waxahchie cures prove it,
W. II. Odom, farmer, near WaXa-
hachie, Texas, says: Il think just as
highly of Doan's Kidney Pills today
as when | gave public testimonial
in their favor over three years ago.
At that time ! had a severe backache
which was with me for years and
was also bothered by frequent de-
sire to pass the kidney secretions.
Doan's Kidney Pills, procured from
b. w. Fearis' drug store, went at
once TO the seat of my trouble and
entirely disposed of it. Since that
time | have learned of many of my
neighbors who have tried Doan's

The estimate of 3 900 carloads of
fruit for the Grand valley is, without
doubt, very conservative. The re-
port was prepared for the Grand
junction Sentinel and is reprinted in
today's Tribune. Palisade will un-
doubtedly furnish at least 200 of
these carloads and the bulk of the
peaches will come from his district.
The crop of Elbertas is extremely
large and those farmers who thought
a few weeks since that their trees
would produce but very little this
year are heard most every day CON
graduating themselves, not only up
on the amount they are as usual dis
covering, but upon its size and quail,

clusion-that the peaches of this sec.
tion cannot be excelled anywhere
and the prices that will be realized
for them this year will prove very
gratifying TO the growers. II is good
advertising for the valley, but should
be followed up with the right kind
OF work that will bring results to all
of us.-Palisade Tribune.
