ON GUARD

At this time of the year people feel
weak, tired, listless, their blood is thin,
they have lived indoors and perhaps
expended all their mental and bodily
energy and they want to know how to
renew their energy and stamina, over
come headaches and backaches, have
clear eyes, smooth rudy skin, and
feel the exhilaration of real good health
tingling thru their body. Good. pure,
rich, red blood is the best insurance
against ills of all kinds. Almost all
diseases come from impure and impov-
erished blood. 1t is to be noticed in the
pale or pimply face, the tired. haggard
appearance or the listless manner.
Drink hot water a half hour before
meals, and for vegetable tonic there's
nothing better than DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, the old-fashioned
herbal remedy, which has had such n
fine reputation for fifty years. 1t con-
tains no alcohol or narcotics. 1t is
made from Golden Seal root, Blood
root, Oregon grape root, Queens root,
Black Cherry bark, extracted with gly-
cerine and made into tablets and LIQUID.
Tablets sixty cents, at most drug stores.
In order to insure pure blood and to
build up the system try this tonic
known as DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. Get 1t nowl

Patrick's Useful Life and Good
Works EntitIe Him to Posi-
ton of Eminence.
PLACE OF BIRTH NO MATTER
Certain He Was a True lrishman and
Accomplished Much for the Wei
fare Of the Race During His
Sojurn on the Island.

Patrick is such a favorite the
" world over is that he was 50
very human. He hadn't much
of chance when a boy, but he made
the best Of what he had. II he had not
he would have been a hogherd all the
days of his life. He was a slave, In
very truth, being bound to pagan hog
raiser in Britain.
But you can't keep a good man down
and that's q fact.
If all the legends be true, which can
hardly be possible. Patrick was a ia
vorite among the ladies, even making
an impression on the good st. Bridget
Maybe this was before they became
saints-0f course 1t was, for how could
they be saints and be alive at the same
timer
However, there Is quite a lot of writ
ings, whether genuine or not. that 20
to show that he was real human
lover, and that dear Bridget was ex-
ceedingly fond Of him, and would have
married him could be have procured
the consent Of the church.
His Life and Works.
From all that can be learned con-
corning the life and works of st. Pat
rick, he was good man, and spent his
life going about doing good for his fell
lows.
AS you know, a good man Is more
highly respected, more beloved and ex-
erts a greater influence for good in
the community In which he is known
than even the wealthiest, the most
powerful or most favored. He NAV not
wear purple and fine linen, nor fare
sumptuously, but he Is making the
world better and Is, therefore, truly.
and In the highest sense, a son of God.
There are numerous stories and leg
ends concerning St. Patrick, some of
which may be true. But It matters
little whether he was a Milesian born

In Spain. or a son of a poor swine
herd of the green isle

In Spain, or q son of a poor swine
herd of the green isle.
The history Of the world shows that
the mere circumstances of birth cuts
very small figure in the matter of real
greatness. From earliest times the
men who have figured most promi-
nently in world movements for the bet
terment of mankind have been NJ
humble origin.
In order to rise from the lowly birth
station of Lincoln or of Moses. a man
must have the true spirit of manli-
ness In him. If he survive the severe
trying-out process his will be a master
full, leading, helpful spirit which the
spirits of all must acknowledge. re-
spect and submit to.
In His Day.
We of the present day can hardly
conceive of the conditions existing in
the British islands In his day.
The native Celts were heather and
british. and had no higher ambition
than to exist, unless 1t was to rob
neighboring tribes of their cattle, hogs
and fair women. Physically they were
strong, vigorous and emotional and
possessed of good nature, wit and So
cial feeling in marked degree as COM
pared with the inhabitants of other
islands.
Noting this, st. Patrick must have
concluded there was something here TO
work on, something good; and seeing
this he took 1t as his command to as
sist In the development Of the social
disposition and good feelings Of these
people.
de therefore became one of them.
lived with them, won their confidence
and commanded their respect. In or
der that he might be an efficient leader
he occasionally went abroad and
studied under the fathers Of the church.
Tor religion Is most powerful to con-
troll the feelings and change the aspi-
rations Of men.
No matter what he may have been
born. he was q true Irishman.
A Real Man.
There are those who regard ST. pat
TICK as 1akir more or less, because
OF the miracles he is said to have,
wrought.
AS far as known st. Patrick did not
claim to have miraculous power, nor
to have driven the reptiles out of Ire
land
1t has always been the rule among
ignorant and superstitious people to
credit their religious teachers and
great leaders with having done some
marvellous or miraculous thing. With
out something of the sort other igno-
rant and superstitious people would
not heed them.
There may never have been any rep
tiles on this particular island, 1t hav-
Ing been one of the last to rise I'D out
Of the salty sea.

II Is not the fact that a man is able

Such was st. Patrick.
