but her parents object to her going
out with me. How can I make it up

So writes William D., who is finding,
perhaps for the first tinie in his life,
what it moans to overcome dislike.
He may bo an exemplary young man,
with every intention honorable. He
may have a good Income, come of a
good family, and possess every quality
that would be desired in a son-in-law.
But he wants to take Daughter away
fmm her home forever. He wants to
rob the household of ils greatest treas
ure.
If be had all the virtues of the an
gels, and sought to do this, very few
parents could look upon his scheme
for stealing their daughter as ft wise
natures old-fashioned plan, and wel
come him.
No father who finds his greatest joy
in the daughter of his house will re

more previous he did the same thing.
"Th it," he will say. when reminded
he once called at a home for the pur
pose of winning the daughter's love
and taking her away, "is different."
Now He Is “The Robbed."
The "difference” is that in those
days he was the robber anil in these
days he is the man who is fobbed.

objection to all young men in general,
and to Daughter’s favorites in par
ticular, William D. will find his path
up-hill, though he have all the virtues
of an angel.
He must know that the opposition is
not against him as an individual. It
is that which all mothers and fathers
feel against the established order of
creation. An order that gives them
children to bear In agony and to raise
in toil and pain, and takes those
children from them just when they
have reached an age when recompense
seems in sight!
It is true they have had all the joy
of their children in this way, but
anxiety, uncertainty, fear, toil, sick
ness, and sometimes privation, at

The children are grown. They have
passed successfully through the phys
ical ills of childhood, and the greater
perils as a more mature age.

A Lesson All Must Learn.
My dear William D.. you are learn
ing a lesson that every young man has
had to learn. And the lesson teaches
you understanding, patience, tenderness
and the value of the girl you want for
your wife.
For this is always true—the more
valuable a girl in her own home the
more valuable she will be in the new.
When there is a feeling of relief when
a girl marries and departs, it doesn't
mean peace and happiness in the home
to which she is going.
There is nothing that William D. can
do but wait. A period that must be
conducted as honorably and carefully
as if he were in line for some splendid
business opportunity and knew that the
eyes of those in position to award it

SEVEN YEARS
OF MISERY
How Mrs. Bethune was Re

Sikeston, Mo. "For seven years I
suffered everything. I was in bed for

Stime every month,
and so weak I could
hardly walk. I had
cramps, backache
and headache, and
was so nervous and
weak that I dreaded
to see anyone or
have anyone move in
the room. The doc
tors gave me medi
cine to ease me at
those times, and said that I ought to
have an operation. I would not listen to
that, and when a friend of my husband's
told him about Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg

for his wife, I was willing to take it.

nothing, and served carrots again next
