"CAN | BE
CURED?" SAYS
THE SUFFERER

How often have you heard that sad
cry from the victims of disease. Per-
haps the disorder has gone too far for
help, but oftener it is just in its first
stages and the pains and aches are only
natures first cries for help. Do not
despair. Find out the cause and give
nature all the help you can and she
viii repay you with health. Look after
the kidneys. The kidneys are the most
overworked organs Of the human body,
and when they fail in their work Of
filtering and throwing off the poison
that constantly accumulates in the sys-
tenn, everything goes wrong GOLD
MEDAL HARLEM Oil Capsules will
give almost immediate relief from kid
ney and bladder troubles and their kim
dred ailments. They will free your
body from pain in short order. But be
sure to get GOLD MEDAL. Look for

Golden Text; Seek ye first the kingdom, and His righteous
ness.
Lesson text; Matt. X1If:31-32, 44-50.
81. Another parable put He forth unto them, saying, The
kingdom of heaven is like to a grain Of mustard seed, which a man
took, and sowed In his field.
80. Which is indeed the least of, all seeds; but when 1t is
grown, y is the greatest among herbs, and beConstA a tree, so that
the birdsSof the air come and lodge in the branches thereof
a.. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid
in a>fieldS the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for Joy
thereof goeth and seleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
IS. Again. the kingdom Of heaven is like unto a merchant
man, seeking goody pearls:
46, Who, when he has found one pearl of great price, went
and sold allthat he had, and bought it.
At. Again, the Kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was
cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind.
as. Which, when It was full. they drew to shore, and sat down,
and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.
40. So shall 1t be at the end Of the world: the angels shall
come forth, and sever the wicked from among the Just,
so. And shall cast them into the furnace of fire; there shall
be waihng and gnashng of teeth.
