Miss Lulu Stevons, daughter or George Stevens, the well-known blacksmith, of Gas- port, Niagara, County, New York, has sur¬ prised her neighbors considerably, by not dying five mouths ago, when the physicians said ahe could not live. This was quite a remarkable case. The young wommif who is very well known, on account of her musical ability, had be*-n a very healthy girl, until about one year ago, when she began to fail, and grew so pule aud apparently bloodless and so weak that after a few mouths she was given, up to die. Last winter a physician wno was a visitor at Gas port met Miss Stevens, aud seeing her emaciated condition, and hearing from the local doctors that the disease was anaemia, prevailed on the girl's mother to make her try Dr. Williams’Pink Pills. Directly she commenced the treatment she began to mend, and now since February, when she decided to take thorn, she has become well and strong and the picture of good health. The mother of the girJ, Mrs. Stevens, says: ■“Every Tills one Lulu, in Gasport knows that thankful P.nk cured and i feel very that we heard of them in time to save my child's life.” densed Dr. Williams 1 Pink Pills contain, in a con¬ form, nil the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are also a specific for troubles peculiar to females, such as suppressions, irregularities and all forms of weakness. They build up the blood, and restore the glow of health to pale and sallow cheeks. In men they affect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork or excesses of whatever nature, Pink Pills are sold in boxes (never in loose bulk) at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50, and may be had of all druggists, or tlireCt by mail from Dr. Will urns’ Medicine ComDau company, y s sem,noni. c h«neemdv N Y THE GREAT FEUD AND ITS END. It is seldom in this workaday age that one encounters a genuine family feud, inherited from sire to son through no less than six centuries. Such a feud actually existed in the dominions of Queen Victoria until a short time ago, and its final settlement was brought about by the ingenuousness of a boy of nine. The two leading Anglo-Irish families in Ireland have long been the Fitz¬ Geralds and the Butlers. From being comrades in arms of the invading strongbow, they became by degrees ri¬ val barons, and fierce contestants for the vice-sovereignty of their adopted country. In the wars of the roses the Butlers sided with the white rose of Lancaster, the Fitz-Geralds with the red rose of York. Factions gathered around in two great houses; and the bitter feud brought forth death and bloodshed from as early as 1250 down to the Williamite wars. Butlers, whose chief had obtained the dignity of earl of Ormonde, succeeded in crushing the power of the elder branch of the Fitz¬ Geralds, earls of Desmond. It is told of a warlike Desmond that while being borne prisoner on the locked shields of his feudal foe’s clansmen, the But¬ lers taunted him with the bitter words: ‘‘Where is now the proud Fitz-Ger- ald?” To which the indomitable earl ans¬ wered : “Fitz-Gerald is where he ought to be—on the necks of the Butlers.’* This proud reply will give an idea of the intensity of the strife. Now it happened that her majesty’3 Irish viceroy gave a garden party in the viceregal lodge at Dublin, and thither were bidden by,accident the marquis of Ormonde, head of the But¬ ler family (familiar to the Americans through his yachting interests) and the little duke of Leinster, boyish chieftain of the house of Fitz-Gerald. With the duke, who was not quite nine years of age, came his widowed mother, one of the beautiful Duncombs sisters. The duchess of Leinster lost sight of her son for a space, and in going to look for the lad, found him engaged in earnest conversation with a tall, elder¬ ly gentleman, in whom she was sur¬ prised to recognize the marquis of Ormonde. What was her horror when, on approaching nearer, she distinctly heard the youthful Geraldine remark in somewhat slangy phrase: “Well, I suppose I ought to punch your head on account of the feYid, but I say, you know, you’re too jolly decent a chap for that. Can't we shake hands and call it square?” With the utmost gravity Lord Or¬ monde grasped the small hand of his hereditary foe, and when the amused mother came to congratulate them on the happy settlement of GOO years of bitterness, she found young hopeful perched, like his famous ancestor, on the neck of the Butler. Thus ended a feud, undoubtedly one of the oldest, and possibly the bloodi¬ est in the world.—Atlanta Constitu¬ tion. REV. DR. TALMAGE. THE NOTED DIVINE’S SUNDAY DIS¬ COURSE. Subject: “An Everyday Christ.” Text: “She, supposing Him to be the gar¬ dener.”—John xx., 15. Here are Mary Magdalene and Christ, just atter His resurrection. For 40»0 years a grim and ghastly tyrant had boon killing people and had drugging them into his cold pal¬ ace. He a passion for human skulls. For torty centuries ho had been unhindered In his work. He had taken down kings and queens and conquerors and those without fame. In that cold palace there were shelves of skulls and pillars of skulls and nltars of skulls and evou the chalices nt the table were made of bleached skulls. To the skeleton of Abel he had added the skeletons of all the ages, and no one had disputed his right until one Good Friday, about 1867 years ago, as near as I can calculate it, a Mighty Stranger came to the door of that awful place, rolled back the door, and went in, and seizing the tyrant, threw him to the pavement and put upon the tyrant’s neck the heel of triumph. Then the Mighty Stranger, exploring all the ghastly furniture ot tho place and walk¬ ing through the labyrinths, and opening the dark eellars of mystery and tarrying under a roof the ribs of wliioh were made of human bones—tarrying for two nights and a day, the nights very dark and the day very dis¬ mal, He seized the two chief pillars of that awful palace and rocked them until it began to fall, and than, laying hold of the ponder- ous front gate, hoisted it from its hinges and marched forth crying, “I am the resurrec¬ tion.” That event we celebrate this Eastar morn, Haudelian and Beethovean miracles of souud added to this tioral decoration Whioh has set the place abloom. There are three or four things which the world and the church have not noticed in re¬ gard to the resurrection of Christ. First, our Lord in gardener’s attire. Mary Mag¬ dalene, grief struck, stands by the rifled sar¬ cophagus of Christ and turns around, hop¬ ing she can find the tracks of the sacrilegious resurrectionist who has despoiled the grave, and she finds some one in working upparei come forth as if to water the flowers or up¬ root the weeds from the garden or set to re- climbing the falling vine—some one in working apparel, His garments, perhaps, haying tho sign of the dust and the dirt of the occupation. fresh Mary Magdalene, on her face the this rain work¬ of n shower of weeping, turns to man and charges him with the desecration of the tomb, His when, !o! the stranger responds, flinging whole soul into one word which trembles with all the sweetest rhythm of earth and heaven, saying, “Mary! tile In that peculiarity of accentuation all incognito fell off, and she found that instead of talking with an humble gardener of Asia Minor, she was talking with Him who'owns all the hang¬ ing gardens of heaven. Constellations tho clusters of forgetmenots, the sunflower the chief of all, the morning sky and midnight aurora, flaring terraces of beauty, blazing like a summer wall with coronation roses and giants of battle. Blessed and glorious mistake of Mary Magdalene! “She, suppos¬ ing Him to be the gardener.” What’does that mean? It means that we have an every¬ day Christ for everyday work in everyday apparel. Not on Sabbath morning in our most seemly apparel are we more attractive to Christ than we are in our everyday work dress, managing our merchandise, field, smiting our anvil, plowing our tending the fly¬ ing shuttles, mendingthe garments for our household, providing food for our families or toiling with weary pen or weary pencil or weary chisel. A working day Christ in work¬ ing day apparel for us in our everyday toil. Put it iDto tho highest strain of this Easter anthem,“Supposing Him to be the gardener.” If Christ had appeared at daybreak with a crown upon His head, especial that would have for seemed to suggest sympathy monarebs. If Christ had appeared in chain of gold and with robe diamonded, that would affluent. have seemed If Christ to be especial had appeared sympathy with for sol¬ the dier’s sash and sword dangling at His side, that would have seeinod to imply especial sympathy for warriors. But when I find Christ in gardener's habit, with perhaps the flakes of the earth and of the upturned soil upon His garments, then I spell it out that He has hearty and pathetio understanding with everyday work and everyday anxiety and overyday fatigue. Boll it down in comfort all through these aisles. A working day Christ iu working day apparel. Tell it in the darkest corridor of the mountain to the poor miner. Tell it to the factory maid in most unventilated establishment at Lowtll or Lancaster. Toll it to the clearer of roughest new ground in western wilderness. Tell it to the sewing stitcii woman, a stiieh in the side for every in the garment, some of their cruel em¬ ployers having no right to think that they will get through tho door of heaven any more than they could through the eye of a broken needle which has just dropped on tho hare floor from the pricked and bleeding fingers of the consumptive sewing girl. Away with your talk about hypostatic union and soierioiogy of the council of Trent and the metaphysics of religion which would freeze practical Christianity out of the world, but pass along this gardener’s coat to all nations that they may touch the hem of it and feel the thrill of the Christiy brothor- hood. Not supposing the man to be Cassar, not supposing Him Him the to gardener.” be Socrates, but “sup¬ posing to be helped Joseph toiling Oh, that amid is the what and the Wedgwood, heat dust of the potteries, until he could make for Queen Charlotte tho first royal table service of Eng¬ lish manufacture. That was what helped James Watt, scoffed at and caricatured until he could- put on wheels the thunderbolt of power which roars by day and by night in every furnace of the locomotive engine of America. That is what helped Hugh Miller, toiling amid the quarries of Cromarty, until every rock became to him a volume of the world’s biography, aud he found the foot¬ steps of the Creator in the old red sandstone. Oh, tho world wants a Christ for the office, a Christ lor the kitchen, a Christ forthe shop, a Christ for tho banking house, a Christ lor the garden, while spading and irrigating tho territory! Christ Oh, of course we want to see at last lu royal robe and bediamonded, a celestial equestrian mounting the white horse, but from this Easter of 1897 to our iast Easter on earth we most need to see Christ as 3Iary Magdalene saw Him at the daybreak, “supposing Him to he the gar¬ dener.” Auoiher thing which the church and tho world have not noticed in regard to t he res¬ urrection of Christ is that He made His first post mortem appearance to one who had been tho seven deviled Mary Magdalene. One would have supposed He would have made His first posthumous appearance ton woman who had always been illustrious for good- ness. There are saintly women who have always been saintly—saintly in girlhood, saintly iu infancy, always saintly. In nearly all our families there have been saintly auncs. In my family circle it was saintly aunt Phebe; in yours saintly aunt Martha or saintly aunt Ruth. One always saimly. But not so was tho one spoken of in the text. While you are not to confound her with the repentant courtesan who had made her long locks do the work oi towel at Christ’s foot washing, you are not to forget that she was exorcised of seven devils. What a capi¬ tal of demonology she must have been! What a chorus of all diabolism! Seven devils— two for the eyes and two for the hands and two for tho feet and one for the tongue. Seven devils; yet all these are extirpated, and now she is as good as once she was bad. and Christ honors her with the first posthu¬ mous appearance. What does that mean? Why, it means for worst sinner greatest grace; it means those lowest down shall come, perhaps, highest up; it means that the clock that strikes 12 at midnight may strike 12 at inidnoon; it means that tho grace of God is seven times stronger than sin, Mary Magdulene the seven deviled became Mary Magdalene tho seven anceled. It menns that when tho Lord meets us at last Ho will not throw up to us what we have been. All He said to her wus, “Mary!” Many people having met her under such clreumstanqes would have said: “Let me soe, how many devils did you have? Oue, two, three, four, five, six, seven. What a terrible pleoe you of were when I first met youl” Tho most the Christian women in our day would have nothing to do with Mary Magdalene even be after her conversion, lest somehow they compromised. The only thing I have to Bay against women is that they have not onough mercy for Mary Magdalene. Christ put all pathos and all reminiscence and all anticipa¬ tion and all pardon and all comfort ami all heaven into one word of four letters, “Mary!” Mark you, Christ did not Hannah appear to some ruble E'izabeth or Bible or Bible Esther or Bible Deborah or Bible Vnsh- ti, but to Mary; not to Mary against whom nothing was .said; not to Mary the James; mother of Jesus; not to Mary the mother of not to Mary the slater ol Lazarus, hut to seven deviled Marv. There is a man seven deviled—devil oi avarice, devil of pride, devil of hate, dovil of indolence, devil of falsehood, devil of strong drink, devil of impurity. God can take them all away, seven or seventy. Irodo over the new cantilever bridge that spans Niagara—a bridge 1)30 feet long, 831) feet of chasm 1rom bluff to bluff. I passed over It without any anxiety. Why? Because twen¬ ty-two locomotives and twenty-two cars laden with gravel had tested the bridge, thousands of people standing on the Can¬ adian side, thousands standing on the Ameri¬ can side to applaud the achievement. And however long the train of our immortal in¬ terests may be, we are to remember that God’s bridge of mercy spanning the chasm of sin has been follv tested by the awful ton¬ nage of all tho pardoned sin of all the ages, church militant standing on one bank, church triumphant standing on Ihe other bank. Oh, it was to the seven deviled 31 ary' that Christ made His first post mortem ap¬ pearance. There is another thing that tho world and the church have not observed in regard to tills resurrection, ani that is, it was the morning twilight. If the chronometer had been invented and Mary had as good a watch as some of the Marys of our time have, she would have found it was about half past 5 o’clock a. m. Matthew says it was iu the dawn; Mark says it was very early in the morning; John says it was while it was yet dark. In other words, it was twilight. That was tho o’elo-k at which Mary Magdalene mistook Christ for the gardener. What does that mean? It means there are shadows over the grave on- lifted—shadows of mystery that are hover¬ ing. Mary stooped down and tried to look to tho other end of the crypt. She gave hys¬ teric outcry. She could not soe to the other end of the crypt. Neither can you see to the other end of the grave of your dead. Neither can we see to the other end of our own grave. Oh, if there were shadows over the family plot belonging to Joseph of Arimathea, is it strange that there should be some shad ■ w - over our family lot? Easter dawn, not Easter noon. Shadow of unanswered question! Why were they taken away from us? Why were they ever given to us if they were to betaken so soon? Why were they taken so suddenly? Why could they not have uttered some fare¬ well words? Why? A short question, but a whole crucifixion of agony in it. Why? Shadow oa the graves of good men anil women who seemed to die before their work was done. Shadow on all the graves of children because we ask ourselves why so beautiful a craft was launehed at all if it Was to he wrecked one mile outside of the harbor? But what did Mary Jiagdalene have to do in order to get more light on that grave? She had only to wait. After awhile the Easter sun rolled up, and the whole plnee was flooded with light. What have you and I to do in order to get more light on our own graves and light upon the graves of our dear loved ones? to wait. Charles Y. of Strain, with his servants'and torches, went down into the vault of the necropolis where his ancestors were buried, and went deeper, farther on until he came to across arouud whioh were arranged the caskets of his ancestors. He also found a enskek,.''.attaining the body of one of his own family. He had that casket opened, and there by embalmer’s art he found that the body was as perfect as eighteen years before when it was emtombed. But under perished. the explora¬ Oh. tion his body and mind my friends, do not let us morbidly struggle with the shadows of the sepul¬ cher. What are we to do? Wait. It is not the evening twilight that gets darker and darker. It is t ho morning twilight that gets brighter and brighter into the perfect day. I preach it to-day. Sunrise over Pore le Chaise, sunrise over Greyfriars chnrhyard, sunrise over Greenwood, over Woodlawn, over Laurel Hill, over Mount Auburn, over Congressional burying ground, sunrise over ev-ry country graveyard, sun¬ the rise over tho catacombs, sunrise over sarco phagl where the ships lie buried. Halt past 5 oY’lock among tho tombs now, but soon to be the noonday of explanation and beatitude. It was in the morning twilight that 3Iary Jiagdalene mistook Christ for a gardener. world Another thing the and the churchj have not observed—that is, Christ’s pathetic credentials. How do you know it was not a gardener? His garments said He was a gardener. The flakes of the upturned earth scattered upon His garments said He was a gardener. How do you know He was not a gardener? Ah! Before Easter had gone by He gave to some of His disciples His three credentials. He showed them His hands and His side. Three paragraphs written in ri gid or depressed letters. A scar in the right palm, a scar in the leit palm, a scar amid the ribs—scars, sears. That is the way they kueiv Him. That is the way you and I will know Him. Alter Christ’s interment every cellular tissue broke down, and nerve and artery and brain were a physiological wreck, and yet He comes np swarthy, rubicund aud well. When I see utter such mortuary silence such radiant appearance, that settles it that whatever should become of the bodies of our Christian dead, they are going to come reil- up, the nerves restrung, the optio nerve luminod, the eardrum a-vibrate, the whole body lifted up, without its weaknesses aud worldly uses lor which there is no resurrec¬ tion. Come, is it not almost time for us to go out to meet our reanimated dead? Can you not hear the lifting of the rusted latch? Oh. the glorious thought, the glorious consolation of this subject when I find Christ coming up without any of tho lacera¬ tions—for you must remember He was lac¬ erated and wounded fearfully in the eriiei- llxion—coming up without one! What does that make me think? That the grave will get nothing of us except our wounds aud imperfections. Christ went into the grave exhausted and bloodless. All the current of His life had poured out from His wounds. He hud lived a life of trouble, sorrow aud privation, and then Ho died a lingering death. His entire holy hung on four- spikes. No invalid of twenty years’suffer¬ ing ever went into the grave so white and ghastly and broken down as Christ, and yet l;cre He comes up so rubicund and robust she supposed Him to be the gardener. Ah, all the sideaehes, and the headaches, and the baok aches, and tho leg aches, and ihe heart aches we will leave where Christ left His! The ear will come up without its heaviness, tile eye will come up without its dimuess, the lungs will come up without op¬ pressed respiration. Oh, what races we will run when we become immortal athletes! Oh, what circuits we will take when, all earthly imperfections substrac-ted and all Celestial velocities added, wo shall set up our resi¬ dence in that city which, though vaster than all tho cities of this world, shall never have htandiiig obsequy! morning round the shattered this of our Lord’s tomb, I point you to world without hearse, without muffled drum, without tumulus, without catafalque and without a tear.

She says: “ From the time I was sixteen years old till I was twenty-three, I was troubled with weakness of the kidneys and terrible pains when my monthly periods came on. I made up my mind to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and was soon relieved. After I was married, the doctor said I would never bo able to go my full time and have a living child, as I was constitutionally weak. I had lost a baby at seven months and a half. The next time I commenced at once and continued to take your Compound through the period of pregnancy, and I said then, if I went my full time and the baby lived to be three months old, I should send a letter to you. My baby is now seven months old and is as healthy and hearty as one could wish. “ I am so tliankfui that I used your medicine, for it gave me the robust health to transmit to my child. I cannot express my gratitude to you; I never expected such a blessing. Praise God for Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and may others who are suffering do as I did and find relief, and may many homes be brightened as mine has been.”—M rs. L. Z. Whitney, 5 George St., E. Somerville, Mass.
