to do what prophets. saints. heroes.
and martyrs have done. But the small
thing, the commonplace thing, the lit
tie trivial duty, the thing that has to
be done out OF everybody's sight-in

that seems poor work to do for God.

hey, and on that occasion Premi-
er Lloyd George madean address
in which he singled out Abra-
ham Lincoln and Robert E. Lee
as the two greatest men Ameri-
lea has produced. The circum-
stances that the British Prime
Minister should have coupled the
names Of Lincoln and Lee togeth'

man who ever lived sank so deep
ly into the hearts of the people
of many lands as Abraham Lin
coin did. am not sure that you
in America realize the extent to
which he is also our possession
and our pride. His scourage, forti'
tude, patience, humanity, elem
ency, his trust in the people, his
belief in democracy, and may l
add, some of the phases in which
he gave expression to those at
tributes, will stand out forever
as beacons to guide troubled ma
tions and their perplexed lead
ers. Resolute in war, he was mod
crate in victory. Misrepresented,
misunderstood. underestimaed,
he was patientto the last. But the
people believed in him all the
time, and they still believe in
him.
In his life he was a great A.
merican. He is an American no
longer. He is one of those giant
figures, of whom there are very
few in history, who lose their
nationality in death. They are no
longer Greek, or Hebrew or Eng

to mankind. I wonder whether |
will be forgiven for saying that
George Washington was great
American, but Abraham Lincoln
belongs to the common people of
every land. They love that hag-

their regard. There is a faith and
a hope in that worship.

word from this platform to the
great people of America: This
torn and bleeding earth is call

merica of Abraham Lincoln.
In the years to come another
name will be added to Americas
famous men and it will be that OF
Woodrow Wilson, who is even
now sharing the fate that was
Lincolns in Lincolns life time. An
apt illustration was embodied in
an editorial expression by the
New York Times when it s e

 Now ohansomharoug was great flirt and already at the age of 107 he had been married seven times-once to Shimmehaha, the dancing maiden, who got the wiggling mysteries and wiggled herself to the Happy Hunting Ground, twice to Shyamaya. the tfmid one, who almost scalped him for hooking her wampum belt; and once each to Ona- pennee. who ran away and spent it. and who eroaked the week after, and almost once to Squawkasaki, the squaw who talked fast and much like Quakquawkee, the parrot And now, Hula Lula was his bride-still and yet. Then one day the little red pappoose of love was about once more to shoot his deadly arrow into the susceptible copper -colored heart of Ohansomhar- ough.

What You Will-When You Will Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
 Help Digest the Meal

Good food in itself is harmless. The usual reason stomach troubles arise is due to faulty digestion brought about by overw ork. sickness overeating, late hours, etc.
 The best way to correct faulty stom- ach troubles due to digestive mistakes is to do what nature wants. All that nature usually needs in such cases is a little assistance to do this work. This is why doctors tell you to diet. Ns~ ture is then compelled to aid herself. You do not then overwork her when she is already exhausted.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets go into your stomach just like food, They help digest food, and thus, when the next meal is eaten, the system is better pre- pared to do it's work without assistance.
 By following this practice many have corrected their stomach troubles, and have conquered the old "bugbear' of indigestion.
 Always take a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet after meals or just before bed timx By doing this you will be acting wisely and playing safe.
 Go to your druggist anywhere and buy a box now. Price, 50 cents.
