The responsibilities connected with teaching in Sunday school are so great that we can only open the sub, ject and leave the discussion to the brethren. An eminent Baptist recently said that the feminiDe pronoun is properly used in speaking of the Sunday school teacher. Following bis suggestion we use the feminrnnnnn hnt. what, if? Said is UIU(/ [/IUUUUL|| ?/?v equally applicable to both men and women. Eow many and grave are the responsibilities of the mother in whose hands the child receives its earliest impressions'? There are many others whose responsibilities are almost as great, among whom is the Sunday school teacher. The teacher should have a true concept of what is needful that she may teach effectively the truths of the Bible. She is training, moulding for eternity, for in man is the spirit that never dies. In addition to having a knowledge of the Bible rka mnai Ha nnHfilfish. cheer JUU V9B\sUW* '" *"" wv , fol, ever happy, sympathetic and filled with the Holy Spirit. Unselfish, for when possible, she must be present every Sunday, which will necessitate the giving up of many pleasure. If self is not entirely conquered, though she is present, she will appear to be making a sacrifice which will not have an influence for good on her class. Cheerful; that while feeling the grave responsibilities of her office and knowing the sins and temptations that surround her class, 6he will see for them bright futures only. Happy; for who, whose face bears marks of discontent and unhappiness, can teach much of the love and beauty of Gad? Sympathetic; how lasting the impression mad* bv a kind hand, sympathetic word! How near the teacher seems to the one who feels that she takes a personal interest in him! The more thorough and systematic the knowledge of the Bible the better she oan teach it as a whole, but she realizes the depths of influence, has unbounded faith in God's ability to do what he promises and in Jesus as her Saviour, and has grasped the truth of the fullness of the world wide love of Christ, she is competent to teach in Sunday school and eternity alone will reveal the success. Filled with the Holy Spirit; for all efforts will be in vain except when blessed by the Spirit. No one can lead closer to Jesus than be himself is, therefore, the teacher Bhould live near to God and commune with him. It is a great privilege to ask him daily to bless each of her class. It is the teacher's duty to present our Saviour's life mission so clearly, his personal interest in each so plainly and his puze and unselfiieh love for each so forcibly that lasting impressions will be made. Everyone who has heard of Jesus has a kind of faith, though it may be little and weak. Great care must be exercised that the faith be not shaken, but strengthened that a staunch, strong structure will arise to glorify his name. It is the teacher's duty to study the individuality and character of eaoh that she may know the personal needs and bring the message so near that each can grasp its truths and assimilate its spirit. It is the soul that must be won for Christ. The younger the child when self is Burrendered the easier and better the fight through life against Satan. Tbe older ones who attend Sunday school want to learn more of Jesus; their faith must be strengthened. They ; t? are preparing iur iue jujiuiouu?utc, they must be relieved of soul burdens. What answer can he who stands before them give if he neglect such important duties? Selfishness, one of the strongest sins man has to fight, is a great hinderance to the cause of Christ. It makes one think he is doing service when he has done nothing. Therefore, from the class of little ones to the class of old men, the teacher must try to uproot this evil, must try to develop instead an unselfish spirit, a great love for humanity, a deep reverence and love for Christ. What is there in a selfish man that uplifts himself, his community or his church? On the other hand self respect keeps men far from sin; inculcate self respect from earlist childhood. The Bible teaches it. The Sunday school teacher cannot afford to leave it off. Personal charms in the character of a teacher have much to do in keeping the class together also in holding the attentioD. There can be little effective work without both: truths caunob be taught the absent nor impressed upon the inattentive. The influence of the teacher's every day life will tell on the class. She must think at all times of the responsible position she holds for the Master. Early impressions are most lasting, therefore the responsibilities in teaching the little ones are greatest. The heart is soft as wax in childhood. How easy bo make deep impressions ?when made they can never be ef ITS MERIT IS PROVED RECORD OF & GREAT MEDICINE A. Prominent Cincinnati Woman Tells How Lydia E. Pinkkam's Vegetable Compound Completely Cured Her. The great good Lydia E. Tinkhara's Vegetable Compound is doing among the women of America is attracting the attention of many of our leading scientists, and thinking people generally. The following letter is only one of manv thousands which are on file in the ^inkham office, and go to prove beyond question that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound must be a remedy of great merit, otherwise it could not produce such marvelous results among sick and ailing women. Dear Mrs. Pinkham:? 14 About nine months ago I was a great sufferer -with womb trouble, which caused me evere pain extreme nervousness and frequent headaches, from which the doctor failed to relieve me. I tried Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and within a short time felt better, and after taking five bottles of it I was entirely cured. I therefore heartily recommend your Compound as a splendid uterine tonic." It makes the monthly periods regular and without pain ; and what a blessing "it is to find such a remedy after so many doctors fail to help you. I am pleased to recommend it to all suffering women."? Mrs. Sara Wilson, SI East 3d Street, Cincinnati, Ohio. If you have suppressed or painful menstruation, weakness of the stomach. indigestion, bloating, leucorrhoea, flooding, nervous prostration, dizziness, faintness, 44 don't-care" and 44 want-to-be-left-alone " feeling, excitability, backache or the blues, these are sure indications of female weakness, some derangement of the uterus j or ovarian trouble. In such cases there is one tried and true remedy?Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. faced. "Train up a child in the way it should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." May all present strive to make only such impressions whose indelibility will strengthen Christian character and lead to Christ Jesus. As an illustration you will here pardon a true story from a sister county. A boy who was a member of a consecrated woman's class, attended Sunday school regularly, learned eoDga about Jesus, seemed interested in the school and loved bis fond teacher. He grew and the time to enter a higher class came, he was promoted How soon he began to lose interest! He was often absent, h8 missed the sweet influence and personal interest of bis former teacher. His friends were sorry to see the change. Soon the call for volunteers came from President McKinley. This boy, dow a young man, the pride of a Christian home, offered his young life to his country. While on picket duty he was singing the songs learned at Sunday school when an older soldier, whose heart was hard and cold with years of indifference and toil, heard the young man singing and was so touched by the songs that he often asked the young man to sing. Together the two marched into a certain battle?the older was killed. When the war was ended the youth returned from Cuba. To his mother he related the incident and said, "Though I am now grown, I want to go back to Sunday school and join Miss M 's class of little ones. If auy laugh I don t care." Miss Sue H.

It is reported that the young king of Spain declared to his ministers concerning his marriage that he did not want a stupid European princess, but would prefer a bright American girl with plenty of life and money. While it is not at all likely that the youDg king ever made tb9 remark attributed to him, it is certain that be might do much worse, though it is equally certain that the bright American girl might do much better.
