LET ME CURE YOU ED FI?
OF RHEUMATISM ri\ll/E
I took my own medicine. It permanent
ly cured my rheumatism after I had 'suffer
ed tortures for thirty-six years. I spent
$20,000 before I discovered the remedy that
cured me, but I’ll give you the benefit of my
experience for nothing.
If you suffer from rheumatism, let me send
you a package of my remedy absolutely free.
Don’t send any money, I want to give it to
you. I want you to see for yourself what
it will do. The picture shows how I suf
fered. Maybe you are suffering the same
way. Don’t. You don’t need to. I’ve got
the remedy that will cure you and it’s yours
for the asking. Write me today. S. T. De
lano, Dept. 326, Delano Bldg., Syracuse,
New York, and I’ll send you a free package
the very day I get your letter.
may speak. Another girl who is
minding her own business may walk
unmolested from one end of the city
to the other.
Ever since the world began woman
has occupied the enviable position of
being the one sought after. Man has
placed her on a pedestal, and has been
content to worship her and work for
her, and woo her. Just as long as
she keeps her womanliness she will
keep her place on the pedestal. When
she, of her own accord, climbs down,
making nerself easy of conquest and,
therefore, tess desirable, she is in dan
ger of losing! her place on the pedes
tal for good and all. The girl who
flirts and has men following her and
speaking to her is laboring under the
mistaken idea that she is receiving
attention. Well so she is; but it is
attention of a most objectionable sort
and is dangerously near insult.
I will come later, and, if you like,
tell a story about a husband and wife.
THE TRAMP.

THE ABANDONED GIRL.
By Mary Wood-Allen, M. D.
Once there blossomed in a beautiful
home a perfect flower of maidenhood.
Care-free and joyous she lifted her
pure eyes to the bright skies bending
above her. The singing birds were
echoed by her voice, and her merry
song was heard from morning until
night. Her gladsome presence made
light aiid joy in the home, and the
world seemed brighter and more beau
tiful because she lived in it.
Kind friends removed every stone
from her pathway, and led her in a
blissful ignorance of life’s realities,
through a world that seemed to her
to blossom only with the fairest flow
ers under whose leaves no serpent
lurked and whose perfume could not
be poisonous. There were some who
loved her that feared her lack of
knowledge might lead her into wrong,
but when they hinted of clouds and
storms she answered only with a
laugh.
Into this world of innocence came
one with a regal presence, to her he
seemed indeed a very demigod. His
»
voice thrilled her, his touch com
manded her, his eyes wooed her, and
in all the blissful abandonment of
her ignorant young heart she loved
him; she trusted him; she listened to
his word of evil persuasion, forget
ting the counsel which in the past
she had so carelessly received.
The words, so obscure in their im
port to her Christlike understanding,
were forgotten in the torrent of his
ardent plea, and when he called on
God to witness to his truth, she could
not longer harbor a mis’trust and she
gave him her heart’s richest treasure.
She gave herself and believed that
she did no wrong.
For a little while the world seem
ed all the brighter, and then there
came a change. Friendly eyes
began to look askance at her, and
unfriendly tongues grew busy with a
rumor of her shame. There were
bitter words in the once happy home.
Angry words from the father, heart
broken cries from the mother, and
when at last the door of home was
closed against her and she turned for
consolation to him who had wrought
her woe, she found herself alone, be
trayed, deserted, abandoned. Oh,
friends, we talk of the abandoned
woman as one who has abandoned
honor and purity but she has been
abandoned by the Christian world;
and no shipwrecked traveler on a des
ert island is more helpless than she is
in this cruel abandonment.
IS THE WORLD GROWNING WORSE
—TO YOU?
Local preachers are in a controversy
over the question, “Is the world grow
ing better or worse?” It’s the same
aid question that they’ve been trying
to solve almost since the beginning of
time. And yet there are today just as
many pessimists on the one side and
just as many optimists on the other,
as there ever were. After all, it de
pends largely upon the individual
point of view. When the milk of hu
man kindness begins to sour and cur
dle in a man he is pretty apt to be
lieve the world is growing less at
tractive. But when the sunshine of
joy pours through the heart and lights
up the soul, the world takes on a dif
ferent hue. In the winter all is snow
and rain and fog; in the spring sun
shine and perfume and color. Some
men’s souls die before their bodies;
with them the winter of life sets in
prematurely. To them the world is
bleak and drear; the clouds never lift.
With others it is always spring; the
snow of age may whiten their head,
but it does not chill their heart. They
pass out of this life into the other
Mailing and singing—believing, yes

Love may be blind, but Love can see
That there’s plenty of room for two,

On one schall chair if they sit with

OFF THE TRACK.
To add to ißunkerton’s discomfiture
in losing his way, he has now been
brought to a standstill by the abso
lute impassability of the highway, and
his temper, already sorely tried, final
ly gave way.
“What kind of people are you up
here in this rotten old State?” he
cried, addressing an old countryman
who stood close by, Inspecting his
stranded car with curious eyes.
“I dunno,” said the old man.
“Baout the same ex most folks, I
cal’lato.”
“Do you call this blankety blank
•car on the face of nature a road?”
roared Bunkerton.
“Not ez I knows on,” returned the
old man. “This here haln’t the pike;
It’s Mose Whlbley’s traout stream run
dry. I wondered what ye was driv
ln’ up it for.” —Harper's Weekly.
