♦ THERE IS UNBELIEF. ♦
There is no unbelief;
Whoever plants a seed beneath the
sod
And wants to see it push away the clod
He trusts in Go.
There is no unbelief;
Whoever says when clouds are in the
sky,
"Be patient, heart; light breakets by
and by,”
Trusts the Most High.
There is no unbelief;
Whoever sees ’neath winter’s field of
snow,
The silent harvest of the future
grow— 4
God’s power must know.
There is no unbelief;
Whoever says “tomorrow,” “the un
known.”
“The future,” trusts that Power alone
He dares disown.
There is no unbelief:
The heart that looks on when the eye
lids close,
And dares to live when life has only
woes,
God’s comfort knows.
There is no unbelief:
For thus by day and night uncon
sciously
The heart lives by the faith the lips
leny;
God knoweth why.

MISSIONARY NOTES, FIRSI* i
METHODIST CHURCH. i
The regular meeting of the Woman s
Missionary society of the First Meth
odist church was held Monday after- i
neon. A helpful Bible lesson was giv- I
en, after which several interesting pa
pers were read. The literary subject ■
for the afternoon was “The Causes and
Results of Poverty.” j
Recent investigation shows that 1
fourteen per cent of people in prosper
ous times, and probably not less than I
twenty per cent in "hard” times, are i
in distress. These figures represent '
only the distress which manifests it- ■
self. We know that only a part of those 1
in poverty in any community apply for 1
charity. The results of poverty are
sickness, death and sorrow. Children i
of the slums are forced by poverty to 1
lie on the streets, where evil sur- <
rounds them. •
Street work is one of the most de- 1
moralizing forms of child labor. Mes- i
senger boys, especially night workers <
are surrounded by vices which poison 1
their minds and many of them find i
their way into reformatories and jails. !
Girls are thrust out into the world as
the result of poverty and forced to ’
make their living as best they can, and 1
often fall victims to the evil one.
These boys and girls are to be the •
future citizens of our country "Christ
ian America.” What are we to do with
this great problem? 1
bet each Christian ask himself aud
herself this solemn question:
“Am I my brother’s keeper?”

DRINK A GLASS '
OF REAL HOT WATER
BEFORE BREAKFAST.
both look'ancj fool I
'clean, sweet and fresh'
and avoid Illness
~~
Sanitary science has of late made
rapid strides with results that are of
untold blessing to humanity. The lat
est application of its untiring re
search is the recommendation that it
is as necessary to attend to internal
sanitation of the drainage system of
the human body as is the drains of
the house.
Those of us who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise,
splitting headache, stuffy from a cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom
ach, can instead, feel as fresih as a
daisy by opening the sluices of the
system each morning and flushing out
the whole of the internal poisonous
stagnant matter.
Everyone whether ailing, sick or
well, should, each morning before
breakfast, drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in It to wash from the stom
ach, liver and bowels the previous
days indigestible waste, sour bile and
poisonous toxins; thus cleansing,
sweetening and purifying the entire
alimentary canal before putting more
food into the stomach, he action of
hot water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach is wonderfully In
vigorating. It cleans out all the sour
fermentations, gases, waste and acidity
and gives one a splendid appetite for
breakfast. While you are enjoying
your breakfast the phosphated hot
water is quietly extracting a large
volume of water from the blood and
getting ready for a thorough flushing
of all the inside organs.
The millions of people who are both
ered with constipation, billious spells,
| stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness;
I others who have sallow skins, blood
, disorders and sickly complexions are
■ urged to get a quarter pound of lime
-1 stone Phosphate from the drug store.
This will cost very little, but is tuffi
cient to make anyone a pronounced
, crank on the subject of Internal sani
tation.
