lRVOk0S Gods Reward
For PelIagra Cure

Jumbo, Val. II. Satterwhite writes:
81 want to thank you for what you have
done for me. You have cured my wife.
God bless you in your work. l hope some
day to see you; if l never see you l hope
to meet YOU in heaven. God will reward
you for your grand and noble work"
There is no longer any doubt that pei.
lagra can be cured. Don't delay until it
is too late. 1t is your duty to consult the
resourcetul Baughn.
The symptoms-hands red like sunburn,
skin peeling off, sore mouth, the lips,
throat and tongue a flaming red, with
mucus and choking; indigestion and
nausea, either diarrhoea or constipation.
There is hope; get Baughn's big Free
book on Pellagra and learn about the
remedy for Pellagra that has at last been
found. Address American Compromising
Co., box 2oS6, Jasper, Ala, remembering
money is refunded in any case where the
remedy fails to cure.-Adv.

II any little ones. But the day comes
when the miserable Overtaxed family
sees sunshine and e bountiful reward
from the number of brothers and sis
tiers who have come to the front and
are comfortable supporters in the
homes where once the wolf could
hardly be kept from the door.
Parents realize that the best part
Of their children's lives is yet to come.
AS they see them enter into young
manhood and womanhood. they proud,
ly W that they are possessed OF
great energy and youthful strength,
and from this time on they we'll know
that each will be apt to make the best
of his life for the sake of mother and
father and their fearful struggle
against poverty in the past.
Nothing can spur on children to be-
come great helpers like those thoughts
Of dismal days when they hungered
pitifully and were lily clad in a poor
fireless room. They have no well-to-
do outside relatives who would will
ingly lend them a helping hand. This
is the foundation of their ambition
the rise Of their future successes.
It is when they drift apart, 20
alone into the pitiless world, or marry
and get together homes of their own,
that the tie Of the large family Of
grown children proves strongest.
There are always some who are un.
fortunate in making their way. Fail
ures and friends who have turned
from them in adversely have made
them discouraged and scarce able to
hold their heads up. Then come the
uplifting brothers and sisters, their
hearts filed with pity, their hands and
purses outheld, determined to give
them a footing to get up and start
anew.
Many Of the saddest discourage.
ments which human beings have to
face are steps from which they cannot
recover themselves. They groan out
that the one wish Of their lives would
have been to have had brothers and
sisters who would have comforted
them when pitfalls and troubles were
theirs. Instead of looking back yer
the years Of hardships that large
families may have brought, one and
all should realize that the future Of
each child may bring a loving reward,
proving an ideal help when the shad.
ows are outlived by sunshine.

IDEAL HELPER

Love seeketh not itself to please
Nor for itself hath n care,
But for another gives its ease.
And builds a Heaven in Hades' de-
spair.
Many young women who build air
castles OF what they would consider
a happy married life for a woman do
not exactly knew what they should
have in a heartmate or understand
fully what varied experiences a low
ing household unfolds.
II they marry young they do not
step to consider the serious step.
There are those who marry because
they want a good home provided for
them, a nice rig to drive about, a
maid to do the homework, In short, a
lazy life for theirs. Every man should
be certain that the woman he leads
to the altar loves him for himself
alone, ever II health or the little
bank savings should take wings.
When a couple is poor. we find that
they welcome the coming of a number
of children. Deplorable this may ap-
pear to be to rich outsiders who have

MEMORY OF A KISS.

I n tell what the words were
In which his love were told;
I only know that l heard him
And that my heart grew bold.
He kissed my cheeks red roses
And held me to his heart.
Oh, henceforth, dear, together,
No more, no more, to part!
Oh, the roses of summer wither.
All beauty will fade away,
But true love will last forever,
Forever and a day.
It Is natural for young people to
meet, be attracted to each other, seek
the companionship of each other and
drift into love-making without a
thought as to the outcome Of the az
fair.
Parents will allow their young
daughter to enjoy the society Of her
beau quite uninterrupted and even
keep quite mum of the fact that they
saw the young man kiss the girl good
night as he babe her good-by on the
doorstep. Not a word could be said If
the young couple we're betrothed, but
a good deal should be said II they are
not. There is nothing in this world
more sacred than the first kiss Of love
a sweet, modest maiden receives from
her lovers lips.
To the man 1t may seem a light in
cident-quite a part Of love-making.
To q maid 1t means the awakening of
her untutored girlish heart. The kiss
is fleeing, but the memory Of 1t will
linger for all time, so wonderful, 80
sacred is It.
The girl who weds her first and only
lover lives a life quite apart from the
woman whose lips have yielded &C.
knowledgement to half a score Of
beaux, who have come, made love.
wearied Of the pastime and gone their
way. The true sentiment Of the kiss
is lost upon her.
Girls who indulge in kissing games
at picnic or party grow up to young
womanhood without the proper rever-
ence for the exchange Of loves most
sacred seal-the kiss. There are
young men too noble to ask for such a
bond of affection when they are not
engaged to the young lady. There
are other young men, and plenty of
them, who tell the girls that this is
part Of the love-making. 1t rests with
mothers to warn unsophisticated
maidens that this Is far from the
truth. "
Girls who permit the freedom Of
kisses soon lose not only a young
mans respect, but his confidence as
well. He soon wearies of her and
bows at the shrine of the girl who
holds her kisses too sacred to give to
anyone save the mar who has pro-
posed marriage to her and has been
accepted.
Too much cannot be said to warn
young women against the danger that
turks in permitting such familiarity.
Seldom, or never, do men marry the
maidens who do not frown on such a
caress offered them.
More girls lose lovers because OF
kiss indulgence than is supposed; 1t
turns more men than 1t wins. The
man who is really in love and who Is
refused kisses is all the more anxious
to marry and take the girl to a home
of their own, where they can kiss to
their hearts content. With no one to
advise-DON'T.

HOW TO HEAL STUBBORN
TORMENTING SKIN DISEASES

A Baltimore doctor suggests this
simple, but reliable and inexpensive,
home treatment for people suffering
with eczema, ringworm, rashes and
similar itching, burning skin troubles.
At any reliable druggists get a Jar
Of resinol ointment and a cake Of resi-
mol soap. These will not cost a bit
more than seventy-five cents. With
the resinol soap and warm water battle
the affected parts thoroughly, until
they are free from crusts and the skin
is softened. Dry very gently, spread
on a thin layer of the resinol oint-
ment, and cover with a light bandage
If necessary to protect the clothing.
This should be done twice a day. Usu-
ally the distressing itching and burn.
ing stop with the first treatment, and
the skin soon becomes clear and
healthy again.-Adv.

What economy he must practice
with this project in view, which he
will carry out to the letter, she must
never know. Many nights when he
was sacrificing the pleasure of her
company by being hard at extra work,
the thought of how lonely she must
be crossed his mind regretfully. What
If some would-be sutton CHANGED to

be sensible, though disappointed, and

With unmarried girls, as well as
married ones, popular pleasures now
and then are the sum and life of
their existence. One may be engaged,
Or wed to the best man the whole
wide world holds, yet her happiness
will be increased tenfold If she has
some good times and happy meetings,
mingling with those whom she knows
will be among the merry-goers. After
a betrothed girl, having a little mis-
understanding with a very exacting
lover, when he %pronounces the girl a

ment with a male cousin, or a dear
girl-chum and her escort, If 1t is i'm
possible for her betrothed lover to
take her, feels that her n CLEAN of
Joy is merged into watching and wait
ing for his coming, usually on Sunday
evenings. They walk out, arm in arm,
and hear the quiet church bells ring;
return home, after listening to an
hours sermon on duty.
No girl who has plighted her troth
need fear to be thought less loyal, low
ing, true or dutiful, II some one time
OF so she passes an hour rightly
among friends, when they have al
ways been a comfort to her, and she

gagged couples who cannot be together
often should consider that it Is just
to enquire whether, once in a while.

ton In the watch-care of some trusty

Never would that privilege lessen
the love of a faithful heart. Always
endeavor to make your sweetheart feel
assured of having your perfect trust.

out sarcastic meanings when his stay

which the sequel tells. All is forgot
