To Cure Headache Dunk Plenty ot
Water.
Thr I’ro*rri h-ive Farmer.
It IB a strange thing that we value j
only that which wo have to pay dollar*
and cents fur. We think health is
bound up in a bottle or tablet at so
much per.
We are all alike in thinkiug bo; the
difference in us is that some of ua have
reasoned ourselves into the truth, and
more of us ■•till think in error. What in
the world are our thinking caps for,
though, if not to use them in considera
tion of those things which will keep our
bodies free from imperfection?
Therefore, then, ye who beg me to
recommend some headache medicine,
remember this—a headache is not a dis
ease; it is a sign of something wrong.
And nine times out of ten thut some
thing is constipation.
So next time you think of writing me,
try this remedy first, and if it does not
cure, then write. Here ia the remedy;
Sip three cups of hot water, just as
hot as you can stand it, at least half an
hour before breakfast. Sip a glass of
milk that has come just to a boil in
stead of tea or coffee at breakfast.
Then drink at least six glasses of wa
ter between it and dinner, continuing it
until you feel qufte well.
When you get tired of cold water,
take it hot; add a little salt, sugar, lem
on juice, or anything to change the fla
vor. The main point is to Hood out the
system, wash out its impurities, start
toe secretions.
Try these remedies which have lieeri
given to this Christinn world without
money and without price, which cure
instead of deaden, which help and have
no after-effects.
Practically all headache medicines are
heart depressants. A heurt depressant
is something which either slows or
weakens the action of the heart. The
after-effects are due to destructive
changes in the blood, and thus the user
of "tyeadache cures" habitually suffers
from "thin blood,” with pallor, short
ness of breath, palpitation of the heart,
and weakness of the muJcles,
Got in the ha 1Ht of drinking plenty of
water. It will help to ward off head
aches and accompanying ilia.
Hut don't drink out of the same buck
et or dipper as did the "butcher, the
baker anil the candlestick maker," who
harbor "coughs and colds and conta
gions untold. ”
Recommends Ghamborlains Cough
Remedy.
"I take pleasure in recommending
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to my
customers, because I have confidence
in it. I find that they are pleased with
it and call for ii when again m need of
such a medicine,” writes .1, W. Sexson,

A Legend of Easter.
The story runs that when Adam felt
death approach he called his son Seth
to his side and hade him ask the arch
angel. the keeper of the garden, for a
balsam thut should save him from
death.
"The time of pardon is not vet
come," said the archangel. "Four
thousnnd years must pass. But as a
token that his future pardon is assured
the wood whereon redemption shall be
won shall grow frutn Adam's tomb.”
He then gave three seeds to Seth and
hade him place them in his father's
mouth when he died. Adam died three
days later. .Seth obeyed the directions
of the archangel, and the place of his
father's sepulcher was Golgotha, when
in course of time three trees grew
from the seeds. One was a cedar, an
other a cypress, and the third a pine.
It was with a bough from one of these
trees that Moses performed his mira
cles in Kgypt, brought water out of
the rock and healed those whom the
serpents had bitten in the wilderness.
After a time the three 'rees incorpo
rated themselves with each other and
became a single tree, beneath which
David sat when he bewailed his sins.
In the days of Solomon the tree had
become the finest of all trees, so was
cut down to assist in the building of
the temple. Hut magic seemed to have
taken possession of the wood, for noth
ing which it was wanted to serve for
would answer, until at last Solomon
cast the tree over Cedron so that all
might trample on it as they crossed the
brook.
There it was discovered by the Queen
of Sheba, and she, recognising its vir
tue, had it raised. It was then buried,
but the spot where it lay became the
pool of Bethseda and healed all the
sick who flocked to it. When the time
of the crucifixion drew near the beam
of wood rose to the surface and Was
brought out of the water, and when
the executioners sought for a beam for
the cross they discovered this and
found that it fitted their purpose. So
the prophecy was fulfilled.
Before the First Easter.
On I'aim Sunday each year the minds
of millions of Christians the world over
are occupied with thoughts of a scene
in Jerusalem.
On the eastern spur of the Mount of
Olives lies the little town of Bethany,
a few furlongs away from Jerusalem.
On the memorable rnorning^if His en
trance into the city Jesus secured mar
Bethany the donkey upon which he
made his memorable journey to Jerusa
lem. The occasion was the feast of the
Passover, and pilgrims from Galilee
and eastern Judea, the localities in
w hich His ministry had been performed,
accompaincd Him upon the journey. As
they beheld Him riding on an ass (the
royal beast in the days of David) the
hopes of the multitude were suddenly
revived. Quickly the news of His
coming spread through the long lines
of pilgrimB. Those ahead tore palm
branches from the trees by the wayside,
while others spread their garments and
cloaks along the way on which He was
to pass, while they all joined in a tri
umphant Hong:
lI'i.Annfl u< (h** son of f lrivi'1!
ih Hi* who comet h in the name of the Lord!
J loHunnu in th** highest.
Slowly the procession came around
the southern end of the Mount of
Olives, with the gorge of the Kedron
to the south, until the wonderful city
of Jerusalem burst into view. Then,
descending into the valley, Jesus en
tered the city through this gate in the
midst of a cheering multitude of peo
ple, who waved their palm branches be
fore Him. Just as the sun was setting
behind the*, hills He found His way to the
temple. He sought not a waiting throng,
but a quiet place for worship. Then in
the hush of the evening, refusing to give
any encouragement to the selfish ma
terial hopes of the populance, He
quiatly returned to His humble home in
Bethany.
The gate, as we see it to-day, is en
tirely sealed. Many hundred years af
ter Christ had passed through it the city
fell into the lands of the Turks, and it
was their belief and fear that our Lord
Jesus was about to return and re-enter
the city through this gate. It was not
their will that He do this, and they be
lieved that hy sealing it up in this man
ner Ilis coming would lie prevented, and
so it remains to this day, the Sealed
Golden Gate, the most remarkable and
interesting Biblical landmark in the
world.
Resurrection’s Sip.
It is told of the great. Teacher that
He was approached and told that if He
would manifest a sign to prove His di
vine originalle would be accepted. He
replied that if the signs and miracles
which were evidence all around were
not sufficient, no others would be given.
It would seem that then, even as
now, man in his egotism demanded
more proof of a self-evident fact. To
day our scientists are trying to explain
the phenomena which surround us, and
the more they try the more do they
demonstrate their own gross ignorance
to every one hut themselves. We
boast that we are the masters of elec
tricity, yet no two of even the most ad
vanced of our scientists are agreed as
to the nature, origin or final destination
of our so-called servant.
We build structures which we fondly
believe will endure for all time, anil we
boast that we have studied and mas
tered the natural laws, so that we can
defy nature herself; and in that mo
ment nature stirs, takes an extra long
breath, and these mighty buildings
crumble into dust, and man’s work dis
appears from the face of the earth.
It is well that we should have days
like this of Faster to chock us for
even a moment in our headlong course
in pursuit of tin 1 more sordid things of
life. Such days are in the nature of
resting-places where wo can refresh
ourselves with the purer, clearer air of
better things and gain strength, hope
and new life from the realization that
there is something more in life besides
the sordid daily routine, the struggle for
the few dollars which are essential to
the continuance of the inestimable priv
ilege of toiling and sweating from one
day to another.

Sixteen Million Bales.
Macon Telegraph.
So it is well over a sixteen-million
bale crop. And several perfectly good
million bales not yet sold, nor likely to
be sold except at a low price. Nice
prospect, isn't it? Especially nice
since the information begins to seep
through the cities that the farmer,
often so encouraged by his supply man,
is pitching plenty of cotton again.
Somebody is going to get caught next
September and October in a jam there
will be no getting out of. A country
can survive but one winter like that of
1914-15 an>I still keep on doing even a
straitened business with its credit still
good.
The farmer who plants cotton this
spring is not working for himself —he’s
in business for the warehouseman and
supply man. They can get their money
out of cotton atsix cents a pound -even
five, if pressed. There is a good profit
in the turnover of the staple, to the
mills; there is a big profit in the goods
sold to the farmer, to secure which he
gives a lien on his planted cotton; and
then there is the interest on the credit
advances. Taking all these things into
consideration the man in town doesn’t
need to get such a whale of a price for
his spot cotton to come out at least
even, if not better. He cuts his melon
too many ways.
The farmer can't pay all these com
missions for the privilege of having his
cotton marketed for him at less than
ten cents. He may do it one year and
hold his land, but the next year the
money to pay that mortgage interest
won’t be forthcoming, and the money
lender will not feel that he ought to
make extensions to a man big enough
fool to plant a crop that common sense
should have told him when he was put
ting it in would never bring him a dol
lar. A Georgia farmer had better first
see that he grows the actual food for
his family the year around, then a lit
tle food to sell—then plant a very little
bit of cotton; thut is, if he can get it
planted without mortgaging his eternal
soul to the fertilizer men and others
who finance the cotton crop. He must
see that he himself provides enough
for the family to eat before anything
else. Nubody else is going to do it for
him.
i feel in myself the future life. I am
like a forest once cut down—the new
shoots are stronger and livelier than
ever. I am rising, I know, toward the
sky. The sunshine is on my head. The
earth gives me its generous sap, but
heaven lights me with reflection of un
known worlds. You say the soul is
nothing but the resultant of the bodily
powers. Why, then, is my soul more
luminous when my bodily powers begin
to fail? Winter is on my head, but
eternal spring is in my heart. Thus I
breathe at this hour the fragrance of
the lilac, the violets and the roses as at
twenty years. When I go down to the
grave I can say, like so many others,
"I nave finished my day’s work.” But
1 cannot say, "I have finished my
life.” My day’s work will begin the
next morning. The tomb is not a
blind alley; it is a thoroughfare. It
closes on the twilight; it opens with
the dawn.—Victor Hugo.
Many a political candidate stands on
his record for the purpose of keeping
others from getting at it.

All Share in Joy.
Christian H**rmld.
When anyone is reading a book what
he is most anxious to know is; "Does
it end happily?” We dislike to read a
' look which leaves us in gloom. There
are two happy endings to the two great
narratives of the New Testament. The
j first narrative is the life of Jesu3
Himself. The second narrative is the
life of His church. The story of Jesus’
life on earth would be immeasurably
sad if it left Him on the cross. That
would indeed be the world's most rayless
tragedy. Those hands so busy in useful
toil and in kindly service, nailed to
the rough cross; those feet, which
had sought out sorrow in order that re
lief and comfort might be brought, also
pierced and torn; the eyes, which had
looked forth with infinite tenderness
and pity upon thp sorrows of men and
women and little children, and which
had revealed undreamed of depths of
sympathy, closed in death; the brow,
on which the light of heaven had shone,
dark with the shadows of death,
covered with dust and with blood from
the crown of thorns; the heart, that had
throbbed with love for the sad and the
needy and oppressed, pierced with the
Roman soldier’s spear. That would
have been an ending too grievous to
endure. But the story does not end
that wai. There are no tears in its
ending. The Savior met His weeping
friend Mary, of Magdala, in the garden 1
with the comforting words; “Whyj
weepest thou?” Since He is risen there j
is no longer any reason for despair and j
grief. He spent those days before Hia
ascension in bringing to His friends as
surance of peace and joy. And He wen‘
back to heaven promising that He Hirr
self in actual spiritual presence woul.i
be with them always, even to the er. ;
of the age.
The happy ending in Revelation i
but another part of this same hap; y
ending of the Gospels. All Christ s
followers are to share in the joy ard
splendor of His resurrection. We ate
to come to Him with songs and evei-
lasting joy upon our heads. May our
faith in Him, our love for Him, our a 1 -
logiarice to Him, be so strong and bright
this year that, of all the Easters it shall
be the gladdest we have ever known.
"A train leaves New York,” sup
posed the teacher, "traveling forty
miles an hour. It’s followed thirty
minutes later by a train traveling
eighty miles an hour. At what point
will the second train run into the first?”
The class seemed at a loss; that is,
all except Willie Green, who was
standing in the aisle vigorously wag
ging his hand.
"Well, Willie?” said the teacher.
"At the hind end of the rear car,
ma’am," answered Willie.
