THE THREE BEST THINGS.

Work.
Let me but do my work from day to
day,
In field or forest, at the desk or
loom,
In roaring market-place or tranquil
room,
Let me but find it in my heart to say,
When vagrant wishes beckon me
astraY;
This Is my work; my blessing, not
my doom:
OF all WHO live, | am the one by
whom
This work canst best be done, in the
right way"
Then stall see it, not too great, nor
small,
TO suit my spirit and to prove my
powers;
Then shall / cheerfully greet he
laboring hours,
And cheerful turn, when the long
shadows fall
At eventide, to PLAY and love and rest,
Elfe.
Let me but live my life from year to
With forward face and unre,enting
soul,
Not Fastening to, nor turning from
the goal;
Not mourning for the things that dis
appear
In the dim past, nor holding back ii
fear
From what the future wells; but
with a whole
And happy heart, that pays it's toll
To Youth and Age, and travels ON
with cheer:
So let the way wind up the hill Or
down,
Though rough or smooth, the jour
ney will be joy;
Still seeking what | sought when
but boy,
New friendship, high adventure, and a
crown,
shall grow old, hut never lose life's
Zest,
Because the roads last turn will be
the best.
Let me but love my love without dis
guIse,
Nor n wear a mask mask Of fashion old Or
Nor wait to speak till can hear a
clue,
/ Nor play a part to shine in other
eyes.
Nor bow my knees to what my heart
denies:
But what | am, to that let me be
true,
and let me worship where my love
is due,
And so through love and worship let
me rise:
Fer love is but the hearts immortal
| thirst
To DE completely known and all
| forgiven,
/ Even as sinful souls that come &c
Heaven;
So take me, love, and understand my
worst,
And pardon 1t, for love, because con

And let me find In thee, my love, m,

4 SYSTEMIC BLOOD DISEASE

Catarrh is not merely an affection
of the mucous membranes; it is a
deep-seated blood disease in which the
entire circulation and greater part of
the system are involved. It is more
commonly manifested in the head,
nose and throat, because of the sensi-
tive nature of these membranes, and
also because they are more easily
reached by irritating influences from
the outside. The symptoms of Ca
tarrh, such as tight feeling in the
head, nose stopped up, throat clogged
and dry, hacking cough, etc., show
that the tiny blood vessels of the 1nu-
cous membranes are badly congested
and infamed from the impurities in
the circulation To cure Catarrh per
manently the blood must be purified
and the system cleansed of all un
healthy matter Nothing equals
S. S. S. for this purpose. It attacks
