Letter from Tesas. Oa this cloudy day, it makes m?feei like I want to do or say something to cheer and make others ra re happy. We, as in the reign of Caesar Augustus, when Corist was born, have had a lone rest, j Probably most of the younger | people have been going to school J ?nd some are yet going, and for tbic-?use we ad should strive to m?k J this year more pr..livable toourselve j nod others tbao we have done before Cue mam thing tor the young pen- t pie to do 18 10 strive for an education ? 1 pract'C*! education; so tb^fc ?bH\ may be better fitted and quipped to enter lifeV battle, whether it. be jo bu-iness circles or iu the humble w*lks of life I' dov8 seem to me that if Abra ! ham LiucoId, aod other great men besides, grew to the knowledge and attitude they did in studying b\ burning the midnight oil under so many difficulties, we certaiuiy oughi to do better than we do considering our opportunities. Of course, we don't expect to reach the position that those great men did, for we could not all possibly get there, but we can get an education if we trv and apply ourselves Y >u remember that Lincoln split rails and did other laborious labor during the day aod studied at nigbt. The fault with us is we never put ourselves to any trouble to leatn anything; especially if it is anything that will be as beneficial as an education. The mos> we think about is getting wealthy, or having some sweet girl smile in us and have a nice time. But if we rhink of ourselves we would at one* desist from the latter. Of course <he girls are all right, but we sbould know something else We ought to emulate the great Stonewall J-tcksou when he was in the battle of Bui) Bun. He was standing like a stone wall, when B*e rushed up to him and exclaimed: ''General, tbey a?e beating us back!" Uumoved by tte storm of bursting shells and whist liDg bullets, he replied: "Sir, wh will give them the bayoDei " Let us be as firm and determined as Jackson W8B aDd we will surely succeed. Education is woat we most need and must have; bo let us all press forward to that end. You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments that stand out?tbe moments when you have really lived?are the moments when you have done things in a spirit of love. However good you may be, you have faults; however dull you may be, you can find out what some of tbem are; and however slight they may be, you had better make some effort to get rid of them. No mau or woman of tbe humblest walks of life can really be strong, pure and good without tbe world L M frtu fr m If k f UOtUg tut) UCHCi iui il mvuuuu somebody being helped aDd comforted by the very existence of this goodness. Do everything well? make that the rule of your life, and live up to it, and you will find it most conductive to your own happiness and to the happiness of those with whom you are brought into contact or communication. The little things which you may do for those about you will fall back upon your heart as the summer dew falls upon the vineyards. What if it is nothing but a kind word to a schoolboy crying in the street"? It dries his tears, and the aching heart grows light and glad again. Who knows what a cloud of darkness a kind word may dispel? Wear a smile and make others happy. There is no joy so great as that which springs from a kind act or a pleasant deed. Send your little child to bed happy. Whatever cares press, give her a warm good aiffht kiss as she goes to her pillow. The memory of this in the Btormy years which may be in I store for the little one, will be like j Bethlehem's star to the bewildered j shepherds. "My father, my mother, I love me." Nothing can take away that blessed heart balm. Lips parch- i ed with the world's fever will be- ! come dewy again at the thrill of ! youthful memories. You find yourself refreshed by the j presence of cheerful people. Why ! not make earnest efforts to couple j that pleasure to others? You will j i find half the battle gained if you j j never allow yourself to say anything j 1 gloomy. | The key to success in any departj ment of life is self denial. Idleness, i laziness, wastefulness comes from j lack of it; while industry, promptitude, economy, thrift and a success- j i ful career are the result of it. Don't 1 | object that your duties are insignifi- j j cani; they are to be reckoned of j j infinite significance, and alone irn- j ] portent to you. Were it but the ! ncfonf ronnlafinn rif tjoih" onartmcrif | the sorting away of your clothes and ] I trinkets and the arrangement of your i i papers. "Whatever thy hand findeth j j to do, do with all thy might and j i all thy worth and constancy." i Dodd H. Roans Prairie, Texas, March 21, 1905. Once in a while a boy knows j enough not to know more than his ! father. j | Woman Lydia E. PinKham's Veg'e cially Successful ii Disease. Of all the diseases known, with which women are afflicted, kidney disease is the most fatal. In fact, unless early and correct treatment is applied, the weary patient seldom survives. Being- fully aware c^f this, Mrs. Pinkham earl3" in her career, gave exhaust-; ive study to the subject, and in producing her great remedy for woman's ills?Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound?was careful to see that it contained the correct combination of herbs which was sure to control that fatal disease, woman's kidney troubles. The Vegetable uompouna acts m u?rmony with the laws that govern the entire female system, and while there are many so called remedies for kidney troubles, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is the only one especially prepared for women, and thousands have been cured of serious kidney derangements by it. Derangements of the feminine organs quickly affect the kidneys, and when a woman has such symptoms as pain or weight in the loins, backache, bearing down pains, urine too frequent scanty or high colored, producing scalding or burning, or deposits like brick dust in it; unusual thirst,, swellingof hands and feet, swelling under the eyes or sharp pains in the back running down the inside of her groin, she may be sure her kidneys are affected and should lose no time in combating the disease with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, the woman's remedy for woman's ills. The following letters show how marvelously successful it is. LvdSa E Pinkham's Vegetable Connmnd Aged Lawyer Convicted. Fayeuevlle, Gi * March 23?Col j Stephen D Riofree, a lawyer about ; 77 years old, was convicted this after- j dood of the murder of hie daughter- j in-law.

He claimed self-defense Reafree i* quite fteble, and during the greater part of the trial reclined on an improvised couch in the court room The case will probably go to the supreme court. . For an Impaired Appetite. Loss of appetite always results from faulty digestion. All that is needed is a few doses of Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets. They will invigorate the stomach, strengthen the digestion and give you an appetite like a wolf. These Tablets also act as a, gentle laxative. For sale by The Kaufmann Drug Co. Ths State House Suit.

I cannot thank you enough for what Lvdia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done forme. When I lirst wrote to you I had suffered for years with what the doctor called kidney trouble and congestion of the womb. My back ached dreadfully all the time, and I suffered so with that bearing-down feeling I could hardly walk across the room. I did not g-1 any better, so decided to stop doctoring with my physician and take Lyaia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and I am thankful to say it h as entirely cured me. I do all my own work, have no more backache and all the bad symptoms have disappeared. I cannot praise your medicine enough, and would advise all women suffering with kidney trouble to try it. Mrs. J. VV. Lang, of 626 Third Avenue, New York, writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:? I have l>een a gi-eat sufferer with kidney tron hlp. Mv hack ached all the time and I was discouraged. I heard that I-vdia E. Pinkbam's Vegetable Compound would cure kidney disease, and I began to take it: and it has cured me when everything else had failed. I have recommended it" to lots of people and they all praise it very highly. Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation. Women suffering from kidney trouble, or any form of female weakness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs Pinkliam, at Lynn, Mass. Out of the great volume of experience which she has to draw from, it is more than likely she has the very knowledge that will help your case.
