whats the use of tryingg" some
people say when confronted by a diff
ficult problem And that ends it,
for them. They see no use, They new
er try, and they never accomplish any
thing worth while. But there is ev-
cry use in trying, even though uiti-
mate failure is the result. The man
who tries is giving vent to the spiris
of progress that is within him. The
effort he puts forth, though it may be
in vain, convinces him that he does
possess the ability to do things. The
partial results he accomphshes go far
toward making clear to him the fact
that he possibly lacked certain facili-
ties and little greater degree of de-
termination in order to achieve a com
plete success. And that knowledge
gives him faith and courage to try

The Home Of the Soul.

In olden times, it was believed that
the seat of the soul was the stomach,
most likely for the reason that a man
is never so completely used up as
when his stomach is out of order. For
the cure of ordinary stomach troubles,
there is nothing quite so prompt and
satisfactory as Chamberlain Tablets.
They strengthen the stomach and en-
able it to perform its functions nat
urally. Give them a trial. They only

our SONS AND DAUeHrERs.


The tomorrow of nation may often
be predicted by its trend of thought
of today. Take our own country as
an illustration.
We have sublime faith in the future
of this country, because we are loyar
--or at least most of us are. There
fore our country win be preserved and
we will press forward to greater ma
terial accomplishments in the future.
1t is in our blood.
But morally it is different story.
Our thoughts are like water--con-
stantly seeking lower level.
A man works hard, uses his brain,
is successful in business, and becomes
the possessor Of much wealth. Tired,
and worn, heAseeks relaxation, and his
mind turns to the young and the
fresh. There is always chicken =
ready to accept his presents and re-
leve him Of part of his cash.
1t requires wealth to move in high
society, but high society with its gilt
ter is attractive to many women. If
fashion dictates that she drink high
ball and cocktails, and sport dia-
monds and pearls in profusion, and
wear & shoestring for an evening
gown, she bows to the ultimatum and
sinks her womanhood in the miro of
the social whirl. Her finer points are
blunted, and those left to her are Of
minor value.
And the boys and the girls, seeing
the pace set by their parents, hit the
high spots in an effort to keep up.
OF course, there are many good PEG
pie who are doing their utmost to
overcome these conditions, but how
impotent their effortsl
Can you predict the tomorrow that
