An Open Bible For the World.
[By Mrs. NJ. NJ. Durey.l

10y MRS. Nj. Ma Duney.
An open Bible for the world
May this our glorious motto be!
On every breeze its flag unfurled
Shall scatter blessings full and free.
Blest Word of God, send forth tn,
light
Ger every land and every sea,
Till all who wander in the night
Are led to God and heav'n by thee.
Where ere it goes its golden light,
Streaming as an unveiled sun,
Shall dispel the clouds of night.
Undo the work sin has done.
1t shows to men the Fathers face,
All raident with forgiving love,
And to the lost of Adams race
Proclaims sweet mercy from above.
1t tells of Jesus and his death;
Of life procured for dying men;
And to each Soul of humble faith
Its Sonship gives with God again.
1t offers rest to weary hearts;
1t comforts those who sit in tears:
To all who faint it Strength imparts
And gllds with hope th'eternal years.

At the death of person in Switzer-
land the family inserts formal, black
edged announcement In the papers
asking for sympathy, and stating
that the "mourning-urn" will be ex-
hibited during certain hours on a
special day. In front of the house
where the person died there is placed
a little black table covered with a
black cloth, on which stands a black
jar. Into this the friends of the fam

cards, sometimes with a few words of
sympathy ON them. The urn is put
on the table on the day Of the funeral.
Only men, ever go to the church yard,
and then generally follow the hearse

Columbus Entitled to Honor.

Columbus di ~overed part of the
western continent on Oct. IL, 1902, and
therefore deserves the title. even
though he did not see the mainland
of America until 1893. John Cabot and
his son. Sebastian, are considered the
discoverers of the North American
continent, having reached the coast Of
Labrador or Nova Scotia, June "a,
1897 Their voyage was inspired by
the reports Of Columbus discoveries,
and to Columbus is given credit for
being pioneer discoverer, though, Of
course, Columbus never saw the North
American mainland.

The Timid Child.

The timid child is recognized at a
Stance. He is lacking in self-confi-
dence and initiative. What he needs
most is to lose himself in the games
and recitations. This is the pupil who
is not able to recite-seldom responds
for fear Of criticism. Such children
as these must gradually be brought to
the foreground by the judlcious teach

DOCTORS FIND
REMEDY FOR
COLDS AND FLU
Calotabs, the New Nauscaless
Calomel Tablets, Cut Short
Colds and May Prevent Flu
By Keeping Liver Active.

Physicians have learned from ex-
perience. during the epidemic OF in
fluen2a, that one OF the most impor.
tant factors In the prevention OF flu
and pneumonia is TO keep the liver
active so that the digestive organs
may be in perfect working order and
the system thereby enabled TO throw
off colds, check sore throats. and re.
sist serious complications For this
purpose they have found that the
new, nausealess calomel tablets
called Calotabs, are far more effec-
tive even than the old style calomel,
which was formerly the universal ia
Vorite, as Calotabs do not weaken the
patient, nor interfere with the appe-
tite and digestion.
At the first sign of cold or sore
throat, doctors recommend one Gallo
tab at bed time with swallow OF
water--that's all. No salts, no
nausea, nor the slightest interference
with your diet. pleasure or work.
Next morning you wake up feeling
fine. your liver IN active, and your
appetite is keen for good breakfast.
For your protection Calotabs are
sold only In original sealed packages,
price thirty five cents. All druggists
recommend and guarantee Calotabs.
Your money back II you are not de-
lighted taith them.--Advt.
