Neighborly Society. “Oh, mother,” cried Mabel, who had never visited in the country, “I have just had a letter from my schoolmate inviting me to spend two weeks on her father’s farm.” Mabel’s mother looked up lan guidly. “Yes, dear,” she remarked, “and what does she say about the society in the neighborhood ?

I thought it was vou, pet.” v When God Probes. God loves us too much to let what would hurt us stay with us. So, because of this love, he him self is willing to hurt us in order to save from the greater hurt. Probing is done in order to get rid of something that would injure. And so, as Prebendary Webster has said: “Do not be afraid of God’s probing. He never wounds except to heal. He never humbles except to exalt. Do let Gotl deal with you; do not be afraid of his probing.” Most of us have been afraid of it; we may be dreading it just now. We shall not fear it if we remember what kind of love is back of it: that all-sacrificing love that died for us on the cross. So we can safeiy, gladly let our selves go utterly into his hands and ask those nail-pierced hands to do with us what they will. Then he can begin to show us his his love as we may never yet have known the meaning of love.—Sun day School Times. ' ' 4 \ , When the dust is on the counter and the cobweb’s on the shelf and there’s no one in the store but your own disheartened self, and your stock is getting shelfworn, and everything looks stale, and bills enough are coming in to make a banker pale.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There Is only one way to cure catarrhal deafness, and that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in flamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed. Deafness is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an inflamed condition of the mucous sur faces. Hall’s Catarrh Cure acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the sys tem. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Circulars free. All Druggists. 76c. F. J. CHENEY & CO.. Toledo. O.
