66 Years Success The Wonderful Record of Dr. Thacher’s Liver and Blood Syrup. Those medicines which live for even a quarter of a century are exceptional, and continuous use for over two-thirds of a century is indisputable evidence of wonderful merit. Dr. Thacher’s Liver and Blood Syrup came into existence in 1852, and from that time to the present it has grown in the confidence and estimation of its yearly increasing number of users. Through all these years it has steadily grown in popular favor. Its wonderful building up power is shown in the experience of Mrs. C. E. Chadwick, Seale.

I began the use of Dr. Thacher’s Liver and Blood Syrup and today, lam thankful to say ,‘l am in perfect health and weigh 155 pounds. 3 attribute my good health to the use of that most wonderful medicine.

Thacher’s Liver and Blood Syrup.” If you need a tonic, or a blood puri fier; if your liver is out of order, your stomach troubles you, or you are con stipated, liav» indigestion or dyspepsia, try Dr. Thacher’s Liver arid Blood Syrup.

JEFF LESTER. By E. M. SMITH. J. H. McCALLA, Ally’s for Applicant The Lonliness of Age. As 1 sit alone in my little room at my daughter’s home, I view the bu«y throng as it passes by in haste, some in their autos and others going and coming, busy with their daily work. I realize how lonely the hours of old age are to those who once were hab ituated to a busy life. All alone, amid the busy throng, they feel their isolation, I see the busy hen with her brood of little chicks. I hear the chirping sparrows as they build their nest'over my head. I listen to the warbling red breast, the twittering of the wren and the shrill whistle of bob white in the nearby meadow, all busy with their cheerful songs. The sweet music is broken by the shrill whistle of the locomotive as it passes by with its long train of passengers, hastening to the busy call of the day. How lonely I feel. Although I sit here alone, I lift my eyes to the scenes of nature around me. Seated in an easy chair I see the bushing roses nod their lovely buds to the gentle breeze. I watch them as they unfold their blossoms in every varied color in greeting to the bright sunbeams of the day. No, lam not alolie. This is the compensation of old age. With God for my companion, 1 have had my days of busy life. 1 enyy not the busy strife of today. lam only enjoying the richest of God’s blessings as he is showering them so bountitully around me while I am waiting for the call up yonder. I am blessed, not only with food, raiment, loving children and friends, hut also by the songs of nature, with a foretaste of a new and brighter world that awaits the righteous. There the breeze of God’s spirit shall fan my soul and the flowers of eternal life shall never fade away. The busy scenes of eternal felicity will be a reality. No, I am not alone as I gaze up on these crowded throngs. I do not feel that all their charms are wholly gone. True voices which once were dear have ceased and faces 1 loved so dearly have been laid away, out of sight. It’s the lot of all. But to see the bright faces go away and leave us alone; where, oh, where are the sunny brows, the long known voices? Thus 1 ask, but in vain; the silence is my only answer. I am not alone. Oh, what is the worth of magic fancy, if all His heart cannot call forth out bliss like those we felt in the days passed and gone? Lips now mute, eyes now closed. When Jesus was found alone on the mount of transfiguration and Peter, James and John had become heavy with sleep there came a voice out of the cioud which they understood but they could not express what they had seen. So, you.see, lam not alpne for Jesus is with me all the time. MRS. R. J. C. Don't Let it Linger. A cough that follows lagrippe or any other cough that “hangs on” from winter to spring wears down the sufferer, leaving him ot her in a weakened state unable to ward off sickness. Jos.

Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry. Now, if 1 know my own heart, my spirit is stirred within me to day. And not only today, but al most all the time. The morning, March 29, how my heart cried to God to comfort the dear mothers and fathers that have to see the dear boys go from home. And now the dear old Weekly has come, and I have read what Kate Brannan has said, and the part of the bible she has refered us to. My spirit is stirred so deep I want to say to everybody and her, too, that she has written the sentiments of my heart. Yes, Kate, I know deep down in my heart that that is what our United States need, and I do wish all would do as you have in writ ing, have God in it. My heart is made sad so often, when I read, plant big crops and raise food stuff, and never say a word about praying the Lord of heaven and earth to send us rain to make them grow. Oh. we are so help less without God’s help in all things. Paul’s spirit was stirred within him when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry. Now you all may think me crazy, but mine is stirred within me, because I think our United States are partly given to idolatry. Now you may ask why. Because we are not read ing the bible and obeying it. The bible tells us there is but two ways; one is right and the other is wrong. So when we are not, serving God, we certainly are serving the wicked one. We have these words in Ist Chronicles, 16th chapter and 15th verse: Be ye mindful always of His covenant; the word which He commanded to a thousand gener ations. Now we are dne of those generations. And what the bible says is all to us now. Oil, the cry of my heart is for all to turn and trust our God for help, and not so much in man and money. Now, I want to say another word to our-dear soldier boys: Please get your mamma’s bible while you have a chance and study it, read the 17th chapter of Samuel anyway, and the 7th chapter of Judges. And if you go, go as David and Gideon did. Now, to everybody: Help me pray to God daily to send rain on His lands and help us to use all for His glory, for we are com manded to do that, even the fruit of our lips. • Just a word now to Brother r*: i , t i nnu~ \jriiinuie. i reau m me vv cci\iy what you had to say about the prayer meetings. It filled me with joy, and I want you to know this, I am still not able to be with you all in body, but try hard, with God’s help, to be with you all in spirit. Jesus prayed and told all to pray. Read the 26th chapter of Matthew. Mrs. Shirley Kelley. • Women Braver Than Men. Women often do their tasks in home, office or factory while suf fering pain and misery that would put a man in bed. However, much of women’s suffering can be alleviated. Backache, sore mus cles, stiff joints, • rheumatic pains, dizziness are caused by disorder ed kidneys and bladder. Mrs. Thos. Davis, Montgomery, Ind., writes: “I doctored several months without relief, when I commenced using Foley, Kidney Pills, and got relief. Eight bottles ■cured me.” Safe, harmless; quick 1 results..
