The woman who slumps on certain days of every month has not kept abreast of the times. Midol has made painful periods a thing of the past for thousands of women!
 Midol is not a narcotic. It does not interfere with the natural and necessary process of menstruation. But 1t stops the pain. It eases the organs affected in five to seven minutes. Furthermore, the woman who anticipates her time and takes a tiny tablet of Midol beforehand will experience no pain at all.
 Try to realize Midol does really end all suffering, even discomfort, no matter how hard a time you've always had. At drugstores in trim aluminium case for fifty cents.

THEME OF SPEAKER
New York Lecturer Discusses
Life and Intelligence as
"PWeIy Spiritual"

Life and intelligence are purely
spiritual, Frank Bell, C. S. B., of New
York City, said last night in lecture
on Christian Science in the Third
Church of Christ, Scientist. The speaker
represented the board OF lectureship of
the mother church, the first Church
of Christ, Scientist, in Boston.
IF you will begin" Bell declared, as
a systematic daily mental practlce, 70
contemplate the essential nature OF
God, as best you can conceive OF HIM,
and definitely and in an orderly
fashion to affirm in your thought the
reality of Gods nature; II you VIII IN
like manner Systematically and per-
sistently deny the essential reality OF
all that Is unlike the nature OF INFINITE
spirit II you will do this not as mat
ter of vain repetition, but with an
earnest striving to bring into TINS
activity some degree of conscious real-
zation of the actual presence and
power of God, operating in and through
YOU to bring into expression the essen
tials of His nature, you will find that,
asking bread, you will not be given
stone"
The lecturer added that the person
carving out his directions would ind,
eff your experience does not differ from
that of countless thousands OF your
fellow-men that the setting into opera
ton of these processes of Christianity
scientific thinking will begin to be made
manifest in most practical ways in your
experience, in healing of sickness, over
coming Of sin, mastery of lack, suppress
sion of discord, elimination of fear.
There is rich reward in taking your
standing mentally on the side of the
good God and His good creation"

FEBRUARY.

Februo is a Latin word mean ing to cleanse. The early Ro- mans had 8 feast day on which they went through the motion of expiating their many sins and cleansing themselves for approaching religious festi- vals. They called this feast day Februa and they named the month in which it came Febru- ary.
 In the earliest Roman calen- dar of ten months there was no February. Perhaps the Ro- mans were so busy committing sins that they had no time to say that were sorry for any of them.
 But about 700 B C., January was prefixed to the beginning of the year and February tackled on to the end of it. At that time February had thirty days. Then came Julius Cae- sar in 46 B. c. and reformed the calendar, making the year begin January 1. To perpetu- ate his exploits, he renamed Quintilius, originally the fifth month, as it's name implies, but at that time the seventh, after himself, and took one day from February to give July 31 days, so it would be as long as any other month of the year. He provided, ,however,t that Feb ruary, thus left with 29 days, should have 30 days every fourth year.
 Later Augustus Ceasar want ed a month named after him, so he selected Sextilis, then eighth month, but originally sixth, and called it August. To make this month as long as the one named for Julius, he took another day from February, leaving it only 28 days except in leap years

of superstitious beliefs.

of superstitious beliefs.
 The origin of the idea that this burrowing animal emerges on February 2 and that the character of the weather for the ensuing six weeks depends on whether the sun shines is yelled in the mists of obscuri y.
 Regardless of the day, we know that spring never ar rives in February in this lati- Jude. The groundhog is a hi bernating animal and as such has enough sense, doubtless, not to break his nap by crawl. ing to the opening of his den when winter still holds sway. We incline to the belief that he has more intelligence than the person who stakes faith on grounding day.
 The dolusion is illustrative of the difficulty in eradicating erroneous beliefs. They survive ;n memory long after they may cease to be relied on gen. orally. We declare we are not superstitious but we find it hard not to note the fact, if We run counter to signs and aug uries. There is no such thing as luck, yet we find it quite difficult at times to differenti- ate what may be called luck from circumstance , fortuitious or otherwise. If there were not a lingering remnant of super 5tition in our makeup we would never hear that the number 13 is unlucky, nor would we knock on wood"
 It is a long road from the signs and wonders which influenced the lives of our savage ancest- DTS, more or less remote, to she state which casts off entire ly such relics of ignorance and we have not covered the en- tire distance so long as we stop to note groundhog day.

He doesn't want to. He is mere- ly paying a little more to make sure.
 But in this business of making sure, he is doing his bit to help others to be sure. The practi- bility of insurance rests upon the participation of many. If thousands insure, their small individual fees will pay for the hard luck that is sure to befall the few.
 And when the hard luck does come, insurance is a matter of extraordinary importance. It is assistance that can be accepted freely and without humiliation. It comes just when it is needed and puts no mortgage upon the future It draws upon a fund that is ready, paid up in advance without constraint of persuasion or pity. It is good sense, good provision and good business.

LINCOLN

An humble child, of manner mild,
 And born in lowly station; He rose, in might, to godlike height,
 And saved war-torn nation! A hired hand, who titled the land!
 A newer stout of wood, Who gained at nj ght by fire light,
 Such knowledge as he could! A lawyer, kind, who knew the mind
 And very heart of man! When hope grew dim, men turned to him; To Father Abraham! An, loved thy name! And when shall Fame
 Fer write a record greater; O, friend of slave, thou strong and brave, Thou Great Emancipator!
