IN THE SEASON OF REBlRTH
Mankind Can See in Nature Awaken
ing an Appeal to His Spiritual
Feelings.

Between the penitential season of
the religious year, which Ash Wednes-
day opens, and the weather of win
ter's decay and of springs renewing,
Is n mysterious bond of similarity
which enhances the meaning OF the
observance. In the order of nature 1t
is a time OF the sloughing off of the
old and the quickenlng of the new; of
the release of earth and streams from
icy fetters and snow burial, and the
deep, secret STRINGS OF new life. And
these, If we will, are but the symbols
OF what may stir and quicken in us
under the influence of this season of
seIf-denials, both of the great things
and of the small. 1t is the season
which reaffirms the mystery which.
like death, no man understands until
he has passed its portals by expert
ence; the mystery, namely, that it is
only by giving up that we acquire the
greatest gifts of life. We know that
the principle holds in the little things.
yet the, fear of trying it in the great
things Is such that comparatively few
ever bring themselves to the supreme
point, and they. their selves forgotten

MISSOURI SUFFERERS
FIND GREAT REMEDY

Thousands needlessly suffer from
stomach ailments, handicapped in
their work and pleasure. The stom-
ach is the handspring of life and the
body cannot run without it.
You want to be well quick.
A great many people in Missouri
and thousands all over the country
have found the way to health by the
use of Mayr's Wonderful Remedy.
The first dose shows results. Here
are the words of two Missourians:

of Bois D'Arc, Mo, writes: please
send four more bottles of the stomach
remedy. Both my wife and l use this
medicine and think it truly wonder
full"
Mayr's Wonderful Remedy gives per-
manent results for stomach, liver and
intestinal ailments. Eat as much and
whatever you like. No more distress
after eating, pressure of gas in the
stomach and around the heart. Get one

Easter celebrations take on varied
aspects all over the world with curl
Gus customs and usages in the rural
districts and spots remote from the
great travelled highways But 1t is
in the foreign cities that one often
sees the expression OF, the big, impress

pecially so of the Latin countries. In
Spain, for instance, one sees it, as
well as in Italy and in France.
But in all countries, though 1t is
the time of outpouring it is largely
judged from an individual standpoint.
Easter in New York is different from
Easter in Rome; and so the contrast
may be carried along between many
places. What is Easter to one man
may not at all approach what another
conceives to be the day-it may be
too destitute of form and show, or
too prodigal of 1t.

Here, in the setting of the most pro-
