Ing Queen Vashti the benefit of the
doubt, this was probably her reason
for ignoring the kings request that
she come into the banquet garden.
Many will say that she did just right
in asserting her womanhood, in stand
ing up for her rights" etc. We will
not dispute that all women have rights,
and that Queen Vashti had hers and
that she exercised them. We merely
offer the suggestion that in question
of rights" along lines Of force and
compulsion, Queen Vashti won a vic
tory which cost her dearly. In Queen
Esther's procedure, which is the sub
ject of this lesson, we see the opposite
course pursued-the queen won q great
victory with happy results by totally
different method, and one which in our
Judgment recommends itself to the
wisest and best Of men and women.
While we recognize the fact that
spiritual New Creatures in Christ are
not esteemed Of God on account of
pedigree, station or sex, that there Is
neither male nor female" in Christ
Jesus, still it is true that, as the Scrip
lures declare, Man is the head Of the
woman" and she is the "helpmeet for
him." See Genesis ii, IS; 7 Corinthians
II, 3; Ephesians v, 1926.

YEARS RELIEF WORK AMONG THE POOR
Associated Charities Worked for the Future Well
the Immediate Benefit of Citys Dependents

when sickness Or lack of work made
it impossible to get along without a.
sistance.
1.-The placing of helpless children in
to homes has been the most encourag-
ing feature of our work.
Twelve children were adopted into
private homes. Twelve placed In pri-
vate homes but not adopted. Eleven
sent to reform school. Seven to
Whites Institute Three infants to
Indiana Home society.
I'VE feel that the placing of this
number of children into homes where
they are surrounded by influence that
cannot but have good effect upon
their lives is enough to justify the
expenditure of all the money of the
Associated Charities, IL no other work
was accomplished.
The Associations Needs.
The Association has certainly labor
ed under disadvantages because Of
lack of funds. Much more of this
practical work could be accomplished
IL funds were available.
Our citizens should bear in mind
that the expenses of our society are
confined to the salary of the mission
airy and office rent, a mere pittance,
when compared with the expenses of
the same class of work in cities of the
same size as Richmond.
The members OF the board are CIV
ing their time and also money to fur
Their this work. and is it right that we
as board, should carry the RESPONSE
bility of raising the necessary funds,
and that we must appear before the
public as beggars for this sum when
the good accomplished must be appar.
ent to every thinking citizen? Can
not We urge more hearty and gener-
Gus response, when the winds Of an
other winter are upon US.
Thanks
I'VE as board return thanks to our
citizens who with their gifts OF money
have made it possible to carry on the
work of Associated Charities. as far as
was done. To the coal dealers who
gave a car load Of coal to be used for
the poor; churches; public schools;
Sunday schools and societies who
gave money, provisions and dinners at
the Thanksgiving and Christmas fes-
tivities; to the Home Telephone COM
pany, who have kindly furnished a
telephone for use at the office.
Also to city papers for kindly CIV
ing notice of business meetings from
month to month and publishing other
reading matter that became necessary
to place before the public.
I'VE close our report with a vote of
thanks to our efficient missionary who
with great self-denial goes about faith
office, ministering to the sick and suf-
fering, and as far as possible reliev-
ing bodily needs, and speaking words
of cheer and comfort to the distressed
md pointing all to higher and fuller
life.

ARE COMING FOR MORE.

The remedies are sold by Spiegel on
trial, and this may, of course. account
to some extent for the strong demand
in the early days of his visit. But at
present, this is no longer the case, for
fully SO per cent Of the sales are to
people who purchased the remedies
on trial in the earlier part Of his visit
and are now coming back for more.

In case no company bids next Mon.

OF OUR CITIZENS
TESTIFY.
% REMAIN ONLY A FEW MORE
DAYS.

The cures that are credited to
Spiegels Remedies seems almost i'm
possible, yet citizens of Richmond,
whose conditions for years past has
been known by every person in the
city make their appearance on the
platform and at his office in good
health and testify to the merits of this
great remedy Sangvin. Were it not
that some of our most prominent citi-
zens have testified as to the merits
of this great discovery we could not
give credit to these reports. but al
most must, when persons of such
prominence publicly announce their
statements voluntarily.
Mr.. A. Nj. Roberts, 221 S. D street,
says l purchased a bottle of Sangvin
with the feeling that 1 was throwing
away money, for my experience in
doctoring my disease, l was beginning
stomach and kidney trouble. I used
only one-Quarter bottle Of this great
tonic and were l not able to purchase
another. money could not purchase
the remainder.
Mrs. Adolph Houson also gives her
experience with this remedy. She
says l was a suffering untold misery
from my kidneys. pains in the back
and awful agony in my stomach.
got to the stage where il had not
got relief shortly l would have been
compelled to give up my household
duties. Several days ago friend OF
mine called my attention to Sangvin
and I began to investigate the truth
of the different testimonials that had
been given by people well known to
me. and found in each case they had
received benefits. l concluded to try
bottle and after four days was very
surprised to find my condition take q
sudden change. can now eat q hearty
meal, my food digests and l do not feel
a bit of trouble with my stomach.
There is no doubt as to my mind that
Sangvin is the greatest and most won
derful remedy in the world.

Tetslaff and NiCkrent are Sore Over
Condition of Roads and Lack of Signs

work on the road from here to Phoe-
nix.
Tetslaff stated that he had no kick
coming on the Yuma people and dis
tinctly wanted them to understand it,
as they were putting up their end of
the purse and doing everything ia
their power to further the better road
NOV emcnt.
But" he said, Billiard is the man
who is the father of the race, and Bull
lard is the man who should properly
blaze the tail clear through and sign
board it in such way that all MAJ
follow one course.
Why he continued, 1--WE spent half
day yesterday following blind trails
between Ell Centre and Yuma, just to
see if we could find a short cut or a
better road than the Ole we came oy-
err, but we could not, and l want to
say that man will have to take the
tracks at Andrade unless something is
done to make road around or over
the tracks there and across the line
"And not only that, but the route
should be officially blazed and iien
boarded all the way through. OTHER
wise somebody may know of short
cut here and there, and thus the race
will not be fair AS for Nickrent and
myself, We have come over the route
for the last time unless conditions are
bettered."
The party left this morning for Ell
Centre and the return trip, and it
certainly seems to the Examiner as it
did to Messrs. Tetslaff and Nickrent,
that the whole road should be official
ly gone over and sign boarded, and a
plain road marked that nobody could
miss.
Otherwise it looks as though several
of the best drivers will be missing
when the race starts. Anything that
is worth doing at all is worth doing
right.
