A CHURCHMAN'S VIEW

The North American Review for
January contains an article which
has provoked much discussion In that
it comes from a "churchman" and
that he answers in the affirmative
the question, "Must Protestanism
Adopt Christian Seience?" One Of the
authors startling statements la that
there are more inmates in our insane
ssylums than in all our colleges and
unSversitieE-that is, we are destroying
MINDS faster than we are giving higher
education. In the Sank county hospi
tsls there are about 165 hopeless pa
tients and we know that tAere are not
more than that in the higher schools
SO bis statement is no doubt near the
truth. He believes the church should
do mole to prevent. He says there is NOT
enough of the idea of pure living,
clean thinking, of loyal citizenship
aud of d&isy needs taugha by the
average denomination. The author of
lhe article would have things done to
prevent insanity-would teach the
followers more the way to live. He

the people with religious truth, and

be another of the tales that stirred his

past fortnight have been coming many
stories of the same sort, and now we
read of a little girl near Periguex,
France, devoured by the wolves which
the severe weather had driven out Of

SICK HEADACHE
PinkIets, the New Laxative, Gives
! Quick Relief in Most Cases.

AS rule sufferer from sick headache
can tell hours in advance when an at
tack is coming on.
: The trouble is caused by a gradual accu-
mutation of poison generated in the di-
gestive organs and when certain point
is reached this poison produces nausea
and the attack follows.
In very many cases the use of proper
laxative before the condition of prostra-
ton is reached will forcethe poisons from
thesystem and the attack will be avoided.
Pinklets are a dainty laxative, tiny,
sugar-coated granules that arouse no feel
ing of repulsion, and they actsso gently
that they are the ideal laxative to use in
correcting tendency to sick headache.
They do not upset the digestion, do not
grippe and have no unpleasant effect to
make them Objectionable to the extra
sensitive sick-headache patient. Old
fashioned, harsh purgatives will not do
at all in such cases. For complete infor-
nation regarding the treatment of sick
headache send to the DR.. Williams Medi-
cine Co., Schenectady, N. Y, for the
Pinklet book. 1t is free.
Your own druggist can supply youwith
Pinklets in 25-cent bottles.

Our lives depend good deal upon
our habits. Habits make or unmake
man. It all depends on the kind
of habits they are. Habits are good or
evil. They are generally formed in
boyhood, and the kind of men we are
to have in the future depends upon
tie kind Of boys we have now. The
boy who starts With bad habits is al
most sure to be q worthless man If
not a criminal.
One of the very worst habits in boy
hood is the cigarette habit. This has
long been recognized by all the judges
of the courts who deal with young
criminals, and especially by judges of
police courts before whom pass thou
sands of men every year who are ad-
dicted to incorporate habits These judi
ges know that in nearly every case the
drunken sots who appear before them
d disgrace to their parents, themselves
and the state began as boys smoking
cigarettes. One bad habit led to an
other. The nicotine and poison in the
cigarette created an appetite for alcho-
lie drink. The cigarette habit not only
had grip upon them in boyhood,
but 1t invited all other demons OF habit
to come in end add to the degradation
that the cigarette began.-Judge
