A Brave Mother.

One of the most heroic things |
saw was an old woman watching eight
sons march past her to the war. NV
old comrade, Mr.. Chriten of San
Francisco, spoke French so we'll | got
him to speak with this good woman.
He asked her why she smiled so to
see her eight boys go Off to death.
"Ah, Monster" she said, at is good
to have eight to fight the sales bouch-
es dirty mouths). You saw me smile.

In 1870 was hired girl of thirteen.
My father was killed by Prussian bay
onets. The soldiers came to our
house. My mother was i'll; they or
dered her to get out and cook for
them. The poor woman was not able
to cook well. The sop was cold. The
Prussians took me out and whippcd
me on the bare back, Mon Dieu, and |

Monster, to wipe out that old foul
crime"

IN 1870 so they could not pull trir-

The Admirable Towser.

GIVE got the most wonderful dog
in the world---the smartest mean,'
said one of party camping in Can
ada last fall. "When bring out my
rifle he knows am going after deer
and he never offers to follow me, but
if he sees me reach for my shotgun,
he knows that means cartridges, and
when l get to the woods l find him
there waiting for me. Actually that
dog knows the difference between a
rifle and shot gun"
"That's nothing" said Frank Pack
ard, at the other side of the table.
"You fellows have sen my little Tow
ser, havn't you? Well, when l be-.
gin to get out my fishing kit, Towser
runs no behind the barn, and begins
diggih sAworms."

The Gift of Capacity.
(Dr. j. H. Jowett, in the Baltimore
Southern Methodst.)

(Dr. j. II. Jowett, in the Baltimore
Southern Methodist.)
Silver and gold have I none, but
such as / have ] give unto thee; in
the name of Jesus Christ of Naza-
reth rise up and walk" The Church
of Chsirt is called upon to do things
that nobody else can do. Her work is
to be radical, fundamental, original
and unique. If the Apostle Peter had
given the lame man money he would
not have removed his impotence. He
would have ministereo 10 n tempo
rary want but not to the permanent
need. Money would have given the
nun relief, but Peter gave him whole
ness. Money might have given him n
brief respite, but Peter gave him a
lasting freedom. One of the minis
tries. is superficial, while the other is
fundamental. One washes leaf; the
other transforms n root. One gives u
charity the other gives capacity. One
bestows aims; the other bestows pow
er. One uses ameliorativeS; the other
imparts the gift of life. In his earth
ly ministry the Lord Jesus Christ new
er contented with the lesser gift of
aims. He always proceeded to the
greater gift Of capacity. He never
gave a lame man crutch. He always
bestowed the gift OF strength. He
came into the world to restore lost
capacity, and when He himself wished
to declare the kind of quality of His
ministry He did it in the words like
these: "The blind see, the lame walk,
the lepers are cleansed, the deaf har,
and the dead are raised" This is
the royal distinctiveness of Jesus. He
is not an almsgiver, but the Life
giver. He does not tinker and patch
up the broken soul. He proceeds to a
new creation.

strong spiritual forces. The suffer

wise leader for her family and reach
ed far beyond the confines of her
home.
The Womans Missionary Society has
lost one of its most earnest workers
and wishes to pay this public tribute

SYRUP Of figs FOR
A CHILD'S BOWELS
1t is cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.


Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the dose mother insisted
on = castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The childrens revolt is well-found-
ed. Their tender little "insides" are
injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli.
cious California Syrup of Figs" It's
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
Of mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
en- the stomach, and that teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child tomor
row.
Ask at the store for 50-cent bottle
of California Syrup of Figs" which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups plainly
on each bottle. Adv.

NOT TO BE CAUGHT MAPPING
Uncle lobe Lived Up to His RepGta-
ton and the Doctor Lost
His Bet.

There lives in certain Vermont
town quaint old character known
as Uncle Tobe," who is so con-
sentative of action and speech that It
is most difficult at times to get any
thing definite from him. Uncle lobe,
like the Father of His Country, has the
reputation of never having told lie,
and in addition he Is SO cautious OF
statement that he has never been
known to tell an Innocent untruth.
On one occasion his doctor, in con-
versation with friends touching Uncle
Tobe's characteristics, ventured to lay
a bet of five dollars that he could cause
Uncle lobe to tell what wasn't so. A
neighbor promptly took the bet.
The doctor walked into Uncle Tobe's
house next morning, and while he was
talking with the old man, the neighbor
who had taken the bet drove up to the
gate. Uncle lobe went to see what he
wanted, and then the doctor, as he had
agreed to do, went out the back door
and hid in the barn
Good morning, Tobe," said the Wis.
itor, lis the doctor in your house?"
He was there when l came out, !"
said Uncle lobe.

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up a Mixture Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make 1t at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you
will get large bottle of the famous
old recipe for about SO cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time, by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark. thick and glossy
