Q.-is hell a condition of eternal re-
morse and heaven condition of eter-
HaI happiness?

Fai HaPPIHeSS.
Answer.-The word hell is an old
Anglo Saxon term and signified a con-
cealed or hidden state. When applied
to those who had died it meant that
these were hidden or concealed in the
grave. In the original word there is
not the slightest thought of torment or
sorrow or remorse. This is also true
of the Hebrew word sheol and the
Greek word hades, the former occur
ring in the Old Testament and the lat
ter in the New Testament. The term
hell. used in translating these --3rds
from the old manuscripts into the Eng
lish. really signifies the state of the
dead, condition of rest. unconscious
ness. The Bible says 1.-THE dead know
not anything The word heaven in
the original manuscripts signified an
elevation. a lofty place. tbs SKY, or. by
implication. the abode of the Deity,
who dwells in the high and lofty
place" In the teachings of Christ and
the Apostles. the Christians tthe ear

A nearph philosopher says: Fools

something like a joke, but it is not.
One of the worst of habits is the put

then coming to conclusion which

great deal wiser to live in ignorance
If some things than to guess at them.
Human nature prompts US to divine
what our friends or neighbors do not
care to have us find out, and too many
of us are willing victims OF a vain
ina gination You know how things
which should not concern us often har-
row up our. suspicious, and set our
minds to working in a way that is
ridiculous, il we get rational concep-
ton of the part we are playing. More
than half that is whispered in this
world could not live if it found voice
simply because it could not bear the
light We should not only jump away
from conclusions, but from suspicious,
and all else that leads up to them.
Jumping at conclusions not only makes
all kinds of trouble; but upsets rea-
son ard produces tragedies This is
why we should jump the other way.

SUNDAY MORNING TALK
HOLD YOUR THLER TRUE.

Marcus Aurelius, emperor of Rome
had brave pilot who had served him
long and faithfully. When affairs call
ed him to distant parts of his vast en-
p:re this trusted man was his con-
slant companion. Once when return
ing to Rome they were caught in so
terrible a storm on the Mediterranean
that the galley and all aboard of her
seemed doomed.
Up on deck was the old pilot steer
ing; and as he held the ship in the
teeth OF the gale he was muttering his
pr ayers. In that time ancient faiths
We're largely passing into decay. The
cid pilot wasn't exactly sure that there
was any Jupiter or any Neptune, but
still he was praying, and here is his
prayer: ''Oh Father Jupiter, Father
Neptune. You may sink us if you will;
you may save us if you will; but

There is a great deal of fun made
of the average man: bur it cannot be
denied that he is the man who pays
the bills ana supports the machinery
of government. 1t is question
whether the machinery of government
would be necessary if it We're not for
the disorderly and criminal classes.
The official duties are mostly the en-
forcement of laws against those who
have little respect for themselves or
their fellows. Did YOU ever think how
little the mayors, sheriffs, policemen,
or other salaried public officials have
to do with the average man? He is
a worker not a disturber Of the peace.
He is principally valued for his vote
and his tax-1noney, and his patriotism
and courage when 1t is needed. Inc
average man is the cornersto OF CIV
iIization. yea, even more, for the whole
structure rests upon his shoulders.
The disorderly have to be heid In
check SO that he may go on producing
and enriching the nation, even furn1sn-
ing the food fer the ones who are less
than the average and make life com
pIex and hazardous. The average man
does not require all this machinery OF
government, for he is the dependable
fellow who always behaves-the man
of industry who pays, pays, pays.

The MAN WHO TALKS


We are told The mistakes of yes
terday tell us what not to do today
They do these who want to be told:
and this is a sorry old world because
so many people will not let their mis-
takes be- of this service to them The
world is not aware that there is more
fun to be got out Of life by economi-
cal and orderly living than seeking
amusement of another character There
is nothing funny about any habits or
practices that are injurious whether
they are classed as amusements or
something else. When the mistakes of
yesterday do tell the man what not to
do today, he is walking in the path of
wisdom. T1at kind of a man cannot
be thrown down very often, for such
road is devoid of slippery places. TO
know the cause of ones mistakes is
to soon become less subject to them.
DEAFNESS to good counsel as well as
ignorance, lead direct to misfortune.
1t is UP to everybody in life to know
what they are doing, for thinking you
know is not enough Do not let conf
dence make YOU an easy victim, for
easy victims make complete mistake
of life. Size your friends up by what
they expect of you, for friend who
must be carried or gratified is simply
an unnecessary burden. If the mis-
takes Of yesterday are made the weap-
ons of protection today you will set
on well in life.

The duty of right conduct is on US all
whether or no we have satisfactorily

is in duty bound to evolve a complete
theory of the universe. But he is in
duty bound to live clean. He is not

earth in balances nor mete out heaven
with a span. But he is under bonds

What is known as parental authority

A conflict of wills in family does not

will of the younger should oftener be
set down as a mistake instead of an
achievement. Wilfulness is often just
a clash of tastes or desires for which
there is no defence. Parental author

drive square pegs into round holes
than any other single force; and the

the derivation of this name Chelsea,
says, 1T WAS once spelled Chelcythe,

not so long since we settled on modes
of spelling An old writer, talking
about the Thames at Chelsea, England,
said: Whose strand is like the chesel
which the sea casteth up of sand and
pebbles; which means it had pebbly
shore, like the chessil- banks we see

MILD. GENTLE LAXATIVE
 FOR WOMEN GIVEN FREE

So many of the ills of women are due to. habitual constipation, probably be- cause of their false modesty on the sub- ject, that their attention cannot be too strongly called to the importance of keep ing the bowels open. It is always impor- tant to do that, regardless of the sex. but 1t is especially important in women.
 From the time the girl begins to men, struate until menstruation ceases she has always vastly better prospects of coming through healthy if she watches her bowel movements. If you find yourself consti- pated. with bad breath pimply complex ion. headaches. belching gas and other symptoms of indigestion and constipation, take a small dose of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
