---Po:son Ivy.
Poison ivy (Rhus toxleodendron) Is
also known as three-leaved ivy. and in
some locations as poison oak. In
growth it much resembles the harm

(Ampelopsis quinquefolia). To avoid
mistaking one fpr.the other. remembcr
that the poison ivy has but three leaf
lets on a stem, wh'de the Virginia
creeper has five. Children distnglisa
them as "three-leaved ivy" and "five
leaved ivy." The poison ivy bears
clusters of small smooth berries, that
are greenish white when ripe.

Another club woman, Mrs.

how she was cured of irregulari
ties and uterine trouble, terrible
pains and backache, by the use
of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound.
" DasB M.s. 1IKHix :-A while
ago my health began to fail because of
female troubles. The doctor did not
help me. I remembered that my mother
had used Lydia E. - Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound on many oc

troubles, and I felt sure that it could

Monthrs ago in Judea he had foi0ow(d iis

ilrst time he then saw and heard the M'
sidh. With Peter, to see and hoar was in
stantly to decide. He became a di cip:e,
forthwith. In the interval. Peter has i,een

and trafficking; medi,ation his co'i:::nt
"vocation:- to testify of the Chri,t to o.h
er_, as he met them in the contacts of the
strand or the market. his habit and his
pleasure. No largard, half-hearted disei
ile would Peter be, we are sure. His zeal
an. =4+husiasn would lead him rather to
overwork the role of advocate: to nree
men with heat and energy to accept the
Messiahship . of .Jesus. even before they
were ready. There is at unwritten chanter
of Peter's life as only a disciple. which
would be well worth the reading. if we had
it. After its perusal we should be less
disposed than now we are to think that
usefulness in Christ's service is necess:rily
connected with ordination thereto as an
exclusive calling. There could hard;y be a
more effective showing of what a mere
disciple can do for his Master and his fel
low men than this lost leaf of Peter's bio
graphy would furnish. If this were not
the case you may be sure Jesus never
would have called Peter th;s day to the
continuous opportunities of the ininistry;
nor. later, to the weightier responsibilities
of the apostoiate.
For an incipient erisis had been precini

there would be no escape for Him. Re

the spirit and preparing them to he His
nerpetuators and internreters. So He left
Nazareth to take up His residence at Ca
pernaun. that He misht be near the most
nrominent and promisin'; of the groan of
His early disciples. What though these
were only a quartet of fishermen! ' The
Lord saw not as rien-saw. but with the in
sight of one who "knew what was in man.
and needed not that any should testify of
man." He knew the time had row come
to senarate unto Himself and the service of
His kingdom the founders of His church.
His eye saw every nrecious possibility in
their nature. He discriminated them one
from another. appreciating the individual
it of each, and yet diseerning their corn
nlimental temperaments and ouanlifi cations.
With Him to feel was to act: when His
"hour" had come He never deferred.
In the early mornine. therefore. 'Pe be

The peonle were abroad, as the manner is
in the East. with the break of day: taking
the air, basting on their errands. following
each his beat. But soon Jesus became the
centre of their interest and attention. The
fame of Him was already everywhere. To
see Him was to wish to hear Him. with an
eagerness that would not he refused. Ac
companied by a continually enlarging

He sought were washing and mending
their nets after a night of'unrewarded toil
on the lake. The boats were drawn up on
the beach, in the midst. Entering the one

him to "thrust out a little from the land"
that He might use the boat for a nualpit,

to Peter He turned His first thought when
He set about the business of seleatin:t His
future ministers. Whatev'er pre-emiinene

BOY GAVE THEM IDEA.
f-ow Railroad Men Got Their Engine
Off "Dead Center."
A traveling man relates that while
riding on the new Orient line between
Harper and Anthcny a few days ago.
one of th,e side rods of the engine
broke, and the other side stopped on
a "dead enter," so that when the re
pair was madc it 'was impossible td
start the train again. He says:
"The engineer, the conductor, and
all the passengers took turns going
over the thing and trying to devise a
way to make it run. Finally a boy
came cut of the field where he had
been plowing to see what was going
on. He crawled through the wire
fence and sat down on the bank and
fanned himself with his straw hat.
"'If you'd back that last car up the
grade an' let 'er come down kerchunk,
that 'ud start her,' he finally suggest
ed, deliberately.
"The railroad men snIffed contemnpL
ously, hut the passengers aided with
the boy. Finally the conductor gave
orders that~the rear car be uncoupled.
No less than fifty passengers caught
hold and pushed the car up the grade.
Once at. the top the car was let go.
The loose coach gained momentum as
it came down the hill, and in spite of
the engIneer's admonition to '1et her
come down easy,' the emergency bat
tering ram crashed into the train with
a tremendous thump. The engine was
bumped off 'center' all right"--Kan

Food.
A little boy of eight years whose
parents dlid not feed h!m on the right
kind of food, was always necrvous and
sufferedu fr'om a weak eondiition of the
stomiacih and bowels. Finally he was
takenx down with appenicitis and after
the oper'ation the doctor, knowing that
his intestinal digestion was v'ery weak,
PuL him on Gr'ape-Nuts twice a day.
He rapidly recovered and about two
moths thereafter, his Father states,
"e has grown to be strong, muscular,
and sleeps soundly, weighs 62 pounds,
Rnd his whole system is in a tine con
dition of health." Name given by
Postum Co., Bat,tle Creek. Mich.
It is plain thxgt if he had been put on
Grape-Nuts at an earlier period in his
ife, and kept from the use of fnods
that he could not digest he never
would have had appendicitis. That
lisease is caused by undigested food
lecaying in the stomach and bowels,
2ausing irritation and making for the
gowth of all kinds of microbes, setting
up a diseased condition 'which is the
ictive cause of appendicitis, and this
s more marked with people who do not
properly digest white bread.I
Grape-Nuts is made of the selected
arts of wheat and barley 7.nd by the
>eeuliar processes of the cooking at the -
'actory, all of the starch Is turne'd into
ugar ready for immediate digestion
tnd the more perfect nourishment of
ill parts of the body, particularly the
>rain and nerve centres.

Optimists believe,that .Dr. Stephe:
Smith, surgeon of the eye departmen
of Battersea Park Hospital, Notting

treatment of the eye which will practi
cally abolish spectacles. It is stylei
"manipulation of .the eye," and is get
tle and gradual, occupying a few mir
utes daily, causing no pain and havinj
no injurious effect of any sort. Som
patients are cured in a week, and i:
all cases improvement is rapid.
Thirty patients who had bee:
obliged to wear spectacles for a Ion
time have so far been treated by Di
Smith, and, with a single exception, a]
have discarded glasses and can not
read, at either long or short distances
as well as people who have neve
needed assistance.
