Plant Juice.

When the stomach Is distended with
foul, painful gases; when there Are head
aches, indigestion, constipation, bilious
ness and the many other symptoms Of a
disordered stomach, there can be little
Joy in life. 1t is in such cases of stomach
trouble that the remedy, Plant Juice,
has proved 20 successful and Plant Juice
not only acts on the sick, disordered
stomach but also tends TO strengthen
and build up the sytem in general which
has become weak and run down from
the stomach trouble.
People who take Plant Juice think 20
we'll of the remedy that they nearly
always recommend it to their friends
and many indorse it through the public
press. For instance, Mrs. Susan E.
Bending. popular Wilmington lady, liv-
ing at l0l6 Wawaset street, recently
gave the following testimonial.
II gratefully admit that / have been
restored 10 health by your famous Plant

Richard lgyd one, Esls5]4s::.' None,

The closest personal advisor of one OF the
richest men IN America recently told us that
his friend whose income was over half mil
lion dollars day, needed no counsel in the
game of getting, but he eagerly sought help
in the game Of giving To help without
hurting them was the problem which perplexed
him.
DO | live for myself or for others,-am
altruistic or egotistic.-am | merely my own
keeper or am | my brothers keeper |-these
are the problems which money forces you to
face and you face them just as squarey with
four hundred month as four millions month
1t is good to feed bread to the hungry but
it is better to find out why they are without
bread to help them get their own bread than
give them your bread
The highest philanthropy is more than char
ty. The curse of the world is poverty The
great war of the twentieth century is going
to be the war against poverty.
So long as money represents the product of
labor. the getters and givers of money will
find their opportunity for happiness only
through the privilege of charging the markets
of labor, rightly rewardng labor and giving
just returns to them who invest their Drawn
and brain for the good of their brothers as
well as for the good of themselves

A YOUNG man who recently inherited a
"A mammoth fortune speaking OF what his
friends called his good fortune. said
cit is not all the good fortune it seems to
be. With it has come sense of responsibility
that weighs and worries.
Moreover, no longer hold the place among
NV former friends that | used to hold and
want to retain They envy me, and envy $50
lates cannot associate in the same old way.
If I entertain my friends moderately | learn
that am accused Of being miserly. IT err
terrain them lavishly | know they must feel
that / put them beyond the hope of recipro-
eating courtesies. I find my money is putting
my friends to the test quite as much as me.
| am anxious to my money for the good
of others, not alone for my good
"Those who can share that thought with me
and help me in that desire are few. My good
fortune has built wall about me-.
Money is the insignia of labor. 1t represents
the investment of Drawn and brain He who
wastes it wants. He who squanders it upon
his own pleasures and pastimes is forced to
feel the waste even though his resources be
so inexhaustible that he may never feel the
pinch.
Mans worth is measured by his earnest
eagerness to help others.

Mystery Play of Thrills, chills and Laughs Here Next
 Week at Jefferson

High spirits, goose flesh and gen. eral excitement will prevail at the Jefferson on Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday matinee, Wednesday of next week for on those days the sensational New York thriller. "The Cat and the Canary" will invest the city with thrills, chills and laughs. No play of recent years has so caught the fancy of playgoers as this spirited play by John Willard.
 It Is mystery play. with crime and excitement running at high speed through the three acts, and an undercurrent of comedy that relieves every situation. To tell the story of the play would expose tho mystery, which is almost beyond human solu- tion until the last few moments of the play. Suffice 1t to say that the play Is entirely within reason and that It's characters are distinctly hu- man in every respect.
 To the theatre goer who enjoys real thrills and full measure of good comedy With his entertainment. "The Cat and the Canary will prove more than interesting.
 strong supporting company will give MT. Willard's play a metropol- itan presentation is identical in and the production is identical in every detail with the play as 1t is presented in New York, Chicago, and London.

.DR. STUART SPEAKS ON TRUE PATRIOTISM" AT
 M ETH0DIST CHURCH

For his subject Sunday morning at the First Methodist church pr. George R. Stuart spoke on True Patrietism." using as his text Luke vii:5: For he loveth our nation and he hath built us a synagogue" Dr. Stuart spoke substantially as follows
 T have read in your hearing to- eay an account of a magnanimous man. This centurion was not a stingy man, small of caliber, who was seeking merely to do his part, 1 but he was great of heart and spirit. and when the community in which he | lived needed a church he built it himself. We have multitudes of men who scrupulously do their share in whatever there Is to be done, but tO do more they will not.
 This man loved his country, his church and his Lord. If we had more
 men like him this country would be far better.
 There are four agencies which produce great men. The school, the church, public sentiment, and public conduct. There is no class of people | on whose shoulders rests greater responsibility than school teachers. As the teachers are so will the nation be. If the teachers have low ideals the citizenship will be an inferior type. We are not placing the em- phasis on the proper things these days 1t seems to me.
 The greatest men in America to- day for some people are such men as Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb. This is an unhealthy frame of mind to have, and 1t is brought about by an over much emphasis on the thing which Is of secondary importance. I have no quarrel with athletics per SC. l played baseball myself when In coll lege. But what I am concerned about is that we will not shift the emphasis from the things which are more im- portant to the things which are less important In our school and national life.
 'swe can't hardly celebrate na- tional holiday now without having 1t interfered with by the improper use of some form of athletics. We must preserve our national holidays. for no nation can thrive without them. T like America because she stands for the highest things. We are not concerned about getting things for ourselves. We went into the last war not to seek territory but that the peoples of earth might have freedom When our ships entered Smyrna and the Armenian children saw the Amer ican flag tehy cried with joy, for they knew that the ship had brought something good.
 Then I love America because 1t IS a land where any boy or any girl can go to the top if he or she ohosses. 1t Is indeed a land of opportunity. I | love America because 1t is a land of peace. have been critised be- cause I was pacifist and l will con- tinue to be an advocate of peace as long as I live. Jesus Himself was i the Prince of Peace and believe Tn the principles for which He stood.
