highly satisfactory. At that time I

a friend advised me to try Doan's
Kidney Pills. was SO greatly bene-

ALl1TLE SERMON.

A religion of good cheer and good
will would be pretty good one
don't you think so? There is moth
ing to be afraid of but fear. Those
who have gone down into the shadow
and gotten on good terms with
Death report only hearts ease. La
zarus, who passed beyond the gates
and then came back, wasn't espec-
tally pleased with the return, but
kept fondly brooding on the things
he had seen and experienced, ac-
cording to Robert Browning.
Here is an extract from a letter
just received: -
my trip home would have been
tiresome and uneventful but for the
cheerful disposition of consumptive
who was returning home to die, and
whose persistent humor kept us in
good spirits, yet whose condition
made apprehensive that he would not
survive the trip"
l would rather be a consumptive
and have a spirit of gratitude and
good humor, with fate's pass check
in my hat, and realize that at the
next station the conductor would
call on me to change cars, than to
have double chin and go through
Ike kicking about the grub The
I.hjlistine.

in the rivers. 10 per cent. the year

the April rules these vessels were re-
quired to have life equipment for all

action was the result of protests from

maintained that the climate there did
not necessitate life boat equipment
