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 ?
Does she she mention anyone?”
“No,” answered Mabel thought

Shortage in European cotton

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.

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. Oh! then’s
the time a fellow is a feelin’ kind
o’ blue, and is puzzled with the
thought of the proper thing to do.
In such a situation but one reme
dy applies. If you want to get
the customers you’ve got to ad
vertise.
This world is willing to tolerate
a lazy man who has money.
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.

Inactive Kidneys *
Cause Disease
"I (ball not soon forget the benefits I derived
from the ose of Foley Kidney Pills."— AL A.
Godfrey, Forest Grove, Oregon.
Too much work and too little work
seem to have abbut the same effect
on persons past middle age. Proper
action of the kidneys is necessary to
good health. They act as a filter
and remove from the blood poisonous
waste matter which if permitted to
remain in tho system leads to many
complications.
Many nervous, tired, run-down men
and women suffer from pains in tfae
hack and sides, dizzy spells, bladder
weakness, sore muscles and stiff
joints and fail to realize that rheuma
tism, diabetes or even Bright’s dis
ease may result. *
If you have cause to believe that
your kidneys are weak, disordered or
inactive you should act immediately.
Foley Kidney Pills have been used
by young, middle aged and old with
complete satisfaction. They act quick
ly and surely and have given relief
In cases of ten years' standing.
