have come to bless you and me. 1t
war, following the 1000 years of
wrong, are close to their end, and it
will all be closed and locked fast while
out of the tomb truth and justice shall
descend to dwell with man. A Grass
materialism was filling this world.
But out of this nightmare of darkness
the world has sped on to a new stand
ard of living. The stone has been
rolled away that hid practical life
giving, Notwithstanding Christian
ity and noble living. The central
standard of civilization is not belief
Tin abstractions), but realization.
OF the reaction of today the young
minister asked. when the stone was
rolled away and ten millions dead
strong men lay in France the world
asks, Is this all of life? Are these
lives blotted ont? Can this scourge
of death have a meaning But | say
the reaction of today is, life here is
the new vision, only the beginning, the
stone is rolled away and practical, IL
resistible belief in immortality buoys
up the world hope. After all, the spirit
of man is the wealth of this world, for
the spirit climbs on. never pausing.
This is the central message of Easter.
The music was a notable feature.
Miss Dorothy kenworthy of Grant
wood was the soloist and she sang
with exquisite taste, as she always
does. The quartet choir, composed of
Mrs. Il. Il. Brown, contralto; Miss
Dorothy kenworthy, soprano; Mr..
Gascoign. tenor, and Mr.. Armonte,
basso, with Mr.. Moody at the organ,
the voices harmoniZing beautifully,
sang well!
The minister took occasion to pub
licly extend thanks for the music and
the decorations.
The decorations We're pleasing.
Sprays of early forest shoots were in
the background on the walls and cor
ners, the yellow tracery giving ii lace
like effect that was artistic and grace
full. On the pulpit platform were pot
ted cinerariums of all shades in radi
ant flower, lending ii touch of color
at once appealing and beautiful. On
the lecturn was vase of rare hya-
cinths and asparagus fern and a vase
of Easter lilies also. while on the side
was large vase of wonderful snap
dragons in pink and yellow and aspar-
agus ferns, the whole effect being full
of feeling and seasonable beauty.

Many Kinds of Breadstuffs.

Almost everything that grows has
been called upon to make bread for
man. In remote ages the Egyptians
of the Nile valley prepared bread from
the seed of lotus flowers. These flow
ers grew abundantly in the mud of
the river bottom, and when the annual
overflow receded there was harvest
of lotus flowers, just as we harvest
wheat today.

Atmosphere is Laden With
Germs of The Disease.

Every person afflicted with Catarrh
releases millions of the tiny disease
germs with every cough or sneeze, SO
that whenever on the street cars or
street or other public place you see
person afflicted with this disease
hawking and coughing and sneezing,
everyone in their vicinity is exposed
to the disease.
You along with everyone else will
find yourself exposed to the germs of
Catarrh several times every day. The
germs multiply by the millions, and
the air you breathe is thick with these
tiny little disease demons that cause
so much distress and suffering.
Catarrh is one Of the most stubborn
diseases, and is always worse In cold,
damp and disagreeable weather. 1t
should not, however, be considered IN
durable, though there are thousands
afflicted with it who are doubtless
ready to believe that cure is impossi-
BILE, because of their experience.
But like all other Affections, the
main trouble is that Catarrh is en-
tirely misunderstood, and therefore
treated in the wrong way. Because
these little germ demons attack the
delicate membranes of the nose and
throat, choking up the air passages
and irritating the tender lining of the
nostrils and bronchial tubes, the aver
age sufferer makes the mistake Of

treating merely the symptoms Of the
disease, and overlooks its cause.
You must realize that Catarrh is
more than q mere local irritation that
stops up your nose and initiates your
throat and chokes up your breathing
apparatus.
Your blood is saturated with Catarrh
germs, and these will continue their
Irritating attacks as long as they re-
main in the blood.
The only sensible treatment, there
fore, is the one which will rout tho
disease germs from the blood.
This is why the most satisfactory
remedy for Catarrh is s. S. s., the
famous old reliable blood purifier.
S. s. s. has been used successfully
for Catarrh for more than fifty years,
and it is the one remedy that attacks
the source Of the disease, cleansing
the blood thoroughly, and eliminating
from it every trace of disease germs.
If you want a remedy that goes di
rect to the seat of the disease, begin
to take s. S. S. to-day, and throw
away your atomizers and other local
treatment that cannot possibly reach
your Catarrh. You viii be delighted
after giving this remedy trial, and
will soon find yourself on the road to
a complete recovery. s. s. S. is sold
by druggists everywhere.
Begin its use to-day, and write for
free medical advice about your own
individual case. Address Chief Med.

Origin of Medicines

The agents employed for the treat
ment of disease are taken from the
three kingdoms of nature, the vege-
table, animal and mineral. Most
medicinal substances are taken from
the vegetable kingdom and consist
of leaves, flowers, seeds, barks and
roots. The old-fashioned root and
herb remedy, Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, which owes it's
success to the vegetable kingdom,
