In this brief statement the Latter

character of their religion--a rellglon
| that embraces not alone definite con-
ceptions of spiritual matters and De-
lief as to conditions in the hereafter
doctrines OF original sin ana the
actuality of heaven and hell, but also
more particularly Of present, cur

respect, love for fellow-men, and de-

Religion without personal morality,
professions OF goodness without
charity church membership without
consistent conduct in the common
affairs of life are but as sounding
brass and tinkling cymbals-noise
without music, the words OF prayer
without the spirit.
"if any man among you seem to be
RELIGIOUS, and bridIetn not his tongue,
but deceiveth his own heart, this
mans religion is vain. Pure religion
and undefiIed before God, and the
Father is this: To visit the fatherless
and widows in their affliction, and to
keep himself unspotted from the

Religion Put to the Test.
A good test of a mans religion is
its utility Religious profession used
as a cloak-and that too often re-
served for Sunday wear, hiding IN
part the shabby rags OF sin--is but
sacrilege. In any attempt to analyze
a religious system or creed it is per-
tinent to examine the results of Its
operation in the lives or its adher-
ents. This is as simple and fair as
to Judge tree by the quality of It's
substance and fruit Altruism is an
essential ingredient of religion that
is worth while.

hateth his brother, he is liar: for
he that loveth not his brother whom

brother also" Il John 4:20,2D.

FLU CAUSED President
WILSON'S SICKNESS

Physicians claim that President VIII
son is suffering from neurasthenia or
nervous exhaustion. This, they claim,
is the after effect of an attack of in
fiuenZa which he had last April, while
he was in Paris attending the Peace
conference. There are hundreds of
thousands Of people today who are still
suffering some bad effect from last
years attack Of Influenza.
Doctors are agreed that the Flu is
coming back this Fall, and now that
cooler weather is here, they are afraid
it will break out any time. Even If
n RECEIVERS from the Flu, the after
effects n terrible. The only sane
thing to do is to prevent the Flu.
Influenza can be prevented; last
years results prove that. AS a pre-
ventive for Flu, Turpo has been
a pronounced success. Turpo is
an effective germicide, combining the
old-fashioned remedies of turpentine
(Which has always been known as the
best home germicide), camphor and
menthOl in a pure mineral base. These
ingredients have long been recognized
do SAISSllNc SCAHiiClucS, as WCll dS nav
ing really wonderful qualities in re-
lieving colds and congestions. Snuff a
little Turpo up the n~ostrils several
times a day, and the Flu germs will
have little chance of getting a lodging
and breeding place. Many physicians
and hospitals use and recommend
Turpo.
The fact that there have been cases
Of "lu" already reported makes ii i'm
portant that you prepare now. Buy a
thirty cent jar of Turpo, while
your druggist has a supply on hand,
and use as directed. Last year drug
gists could not supply the demand.
Remember that Turpo is a preventive,
not a cure for influenza. Take care Of
yourself.-Adv.
