Sleepless Nights
“My wife is of a nervous tempera
ment, and has suffered much from
sleeplessness. Since using Dr. Miles* -
Nervine she has greatly improved
and now sleeps well.”
W. W. FISHBACK, Redkey, Ind.
When the nerves become weak,
worn-out, excitable from over
work, worry, grief or mental ex
haustion, their turbulent condition
prevents that total relaxation that
induces sleep.
Dr. Miles’ Nervine
by its soothing and quieting influ
ence and by strengthening and re
plenishing the exhausted nerve force
brings profound and restful sleep.

The Lady Trom Alabama
It was an allegory, an embodiment
in paint, of this man’s life, a tragic
epitome of his agony, and, in a wider
sense, of his brother’s—those who can
not cry out against world scorn,
though their souls be sorrowful, even
unto death.
The willow over his head was his
juniper tree, and she was his minis
tering angel, that had not the least
idea how to minister. The situation
was most difficult; it was harder even
than bringing down the hawk a-top of
the Temple of the Winds. She must
handle the dangerous rifle of Pity
with more skill than she had manipu
lated the rifle of War.
He helped her, unconsciously, by
wiping the tears from his hard, bronze
cheeks and replacing his hat.
She must act quickly. She rose
gracefully to her feet, as only a wo
man trained to college athletics can
rise. The soft, green grass might
have been an old gymnasium mat for
all she cared, and picking up her sil
ver-handled fishing rod, she did the
cool, impersonal, insouciant thing.
She began to reel in her line.
She knew that he was watching her,
but she gave no sign. He was not
one of the Elishas of the city or one
of the Herods, in that bustling, semi
metropolis, where Fate had allowed
both of them to live, but only a man
of the people, one of the common lot,
a human man, with a great heart,
that had come down —down —down to
the very last of the bitter dregs in
the grim Cup of Life.
She faced the sunset, presently,
where God’s angels must have been
watching her, where the invisible
host stood; and, as some fair-browed
immortal, with her face turned from
him, every line cut like a cameo of
noblest pattern, the glory of a pity
not of earth, the light that was not on
land or sea, made luminous in her
eyes, she spoke:
“Sir, you seem weary with the
day’s sport.”
He took off his hat, as if he had
just discovered her presence, and,
with the gallantry that is born in the
blood of the South, rose grandly to
meet the unusual situation.
“I am tired, thank you, Miss
Churchill; very weary, if you will par
don the superlative adjective, with a
long day’s fishing.
He had not stooped to pretence that
he did not know her name. It was a
point in his favor. She reeled up her
long line slowly, watching the sunset
clouds, meditatively, at one instance,
at the next the dark, tarn-like shad
ows that were drawing like a thick
veil over the brightness of the pool.
The dusk intensified the ivory tone of
her almost majestic beauty.
“Have you had much luck?”
“No, I can not honestly say that I
have had much success, Miss
The Little Family Doctor.
Hardly a day passes that parents are
not called upon to treat some kind of
malady. This is especially the case where
there are many children. If you are a

ily remedy that for over half a century
has been the useful and efficient helper

carbuncles, old sores, chronic ulcers, bone
felons, burns, festering cuts, poison oak
and many other ailments it will prove
your best friend. Keep it always on your

send your name for a small free trial
box, which we will gladly send postpaid

Churchill. A few channel cats, a gold
perch or so, a very young trout, a
small minnow that would be caught,
is all that I have to show for my long
day’s tramp. But I came out for the
holiday more than the fishing.”
“I see. You are very kind to ex
plain your ‘catch.’ And you are won
dering, I suspect, that I should talk
with a comparative stranger in this
manner, are you not?”
“I needed your talk,” he said, sim
ply. “You merely answered to a very
strong mental demand, and I thank
you for speaking. I was wondering,
though, how deep that pool was, when
I stumbled ...”
He checked himself with a slight
gesture.
“I used to believe, when I could be
lieve anything, that God sent good
women across the path of the wicked
in some moment of terrible tempta
tion, to save them.”
“What have I saved you from?” she
asked curiously.
'“From stepping backward into the
waters of that small Dead Sea, and
because it is not salt, but fresh, I
might not have cared to come up, and
they would not have forced me to.
Such men as I, Miss Churchill, grow
weary of a perpetual Garden of Geth
semane and the dolorous, deadly odor
of the continual cedars.”
“What is it that troubles you, Mr.
Morris? Why should you take life so
desperately?
“This life of ours, what is it? a very
few
Soon ended years, and then —the
ceaseless psalm
And the eternal Sabbath of the soul.”
“Why should I take life so desper
ately? I will tell you, Miss Churchill,
since you are kind enough to ask,
since this unusual conversation has
been brought upon us by some mighty
power outside of our little selves. I
can not be at all like the perfect God
that has been preached to me. I have
prayed desperately and long for a
beautiful home, that will look and be
something like God’s home, and a mis
erable box, on an unpaved street, is
the answer to that prayer. I can not
honor God, in my habitation, because
the nature of rewards is insurmounta
ble. My sins have not been the whole
barrier that have kept me from this
God-like environment, for I know
good, virtuous and pure-minded men
w’ho have been denied the same thing.
I do not, and I can not, believe in a
God that grants only stones and hard,
brutal, flesh-cutting stones at that,
when his children cry unto Him for
bread. I would like to honor God in
my daily dress and very often I have
to wear clothes that dishonor me. I
can not believe in a God that has not
scientific sense enough to dress
in something besides rags those who
believe on His name. I desire that my
table should be equal to the table of a
king, and instead the food is often in
sufficient and the cloth mere cotton.
I would enjoy these things just as
much as they, and yet I had the grim
pleasure, Miss Churchill, of saving
three dollars and ninety-eight cents
last year, after my debts were paid,
from the claw-like clutches of the
washerwoman, the saloonist and the
great loafers who ornament our city
hall, and tax every comfort from out
of the home, under the lie of law.”
Here was a story white-hot off the
flaming anvil of life. Tears came into
the dark, pitying eyes.
“Three dollars and ninety-eight
cents’” she mused. “Why, I spent
that much on a seat in a New York
A REAL BLESSING

What enjoyment there is in feeling
well! Life is all pleasure, and work
Is but play. But If one is continually
ailing, life seems scarcely worth liv
