HOW MRS. BOYO
' AVOIDED AN
OPERATION
Cftnfnn Ohio.?"I suffered from a
female trouble which caused me much
suffering, and two
B doctors decided
that I would hava
i to go through an
operation beiore I
! could get well.
" My mother, who
| had been helped by
; LydiaE. Pinkham's
Vegetable Com:
pound, advised me
I to try it before submitting
to an operaj
tion. It relieved me
"""' from my troubles
?o I can do my house work without any
difficulty. I advise any woman who is
B afflicted with female troubles to give
Lydia E. Fink ham's Vegetable ComW
pound a trial and it will do as much for
\ them."?Mrs. Marie Boyd, 1421 5th
St., N. EL, Canton, Ohio.
NO, Sometimes there are serious conditions
where a hospital operation is the
only alternative, but on the other hand
30 many women have been cured by this
famous root and herb remedy, Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, after
doctors have said that an operation was
necessary?every woman who wants
to avoid an operation should give it a
fair trial before submitting to such a

The spiritual life of the church has
been deepened and quickened. We
are gratified with the interest of the
people, old. middle-aged and young.
I Thov cippm to havp rauoht new vis
ions. These visions have been transj
forming their lives. We believe there
j is more progress for the church in the
j future. There is work to be done, a
will to do it: so after the will has
been applied the result will be progress.
There is a bright future for this
church. The possibilities are so many
and so great that they almost confound
us. but the help which comes
I
from the neop^e and from God. ursre
us forward. God has been with us.
Where -He ?oes thingrs happen and
lives change. j
Twenty-one of our boys have answered
their country's call. They are
j heroes. God bless them f This war
! will draw their latent manhood to the
I surface and develop it. A widowed
mother wrote me some days ago that
another of her boys had been called
I into service. Sb lid that when he
} received the caL tit went to the bank
, and drew' his deposits, boarded the
first train for home to spend a day
! and night before going to the camp.
I and just before saying good-bye to
all. he handed his purse to her, saying
""Mother, this is what I have saved,
j it's all the money I have.. I jjive it to
you and the children. What I am
, belongs to my country and I go to
' eive myself to her.* That is what
''Ood wants us to do for Him. "When
i He gets that, iHe can bless us and
: make us blessings. I

LETTERS FROM THE BOYS
"OVER THERE."
Letter From Corporal Livingston.
i
Corporal J. P. Livingston writes a
l. 1 ~ _ J
iricnd saying ne is in good ? ea.ii.ii aim
: <js been since Ms arrival overseas.
Tlf- spen' eight days in the front lirrrs
uud caine out all O. K. Also made a 1
f- \v trip:.. in No Man's Land. He says i
tl"? v.-orlf is real interesting, but of
corrs* there are no safe jobs there. !
."I vrould rot take anything for what
I've seen," he writes. "You know
vc-jr.^elf t>at I don't let danger inter
:ere with fluty, for the manhood about
ine is :.o dj ray duty even at the risk
of my life. There is not a drop of cownri
blond in me. There is much to
with here, but I am man
cno- g!: to stand it all and I believe
[ will be back with my friends some
lay. So far as physical work we do
very little of that now; it requires
much more headwork." He says they
hnve had some very nice times since
their arrival?"not with girls, but
among ourselves; the girls over heros!
don't interest me in the least?that
is not my mission over here anyway." j
He adds: "Don't think I am homesick.
for I am not; still all would be
glad if this great war was over, so we
could choose our own professions. '
Dnt (still tViic ia n p-rpat lPSSOn to UT !

all." .He concludes: "This is a beau- !
tiful country, with plenty wine and
beer to drink. When I set back I can
tell some interesting stories that I
feel sure you would be surprised to
know."
Another Letter From Corp. Livingston
Corporal Livingston under date of
July 6, wrote his parents, iMr. and
.Mrs. T. X). Livingston that he was in
the best of health; that he basn't "been ;
sick in the least since arriving in j
France. Is constantly seeing new j
t.hines and experiencing new work. 1
He "spent eight days in the front
lines already and came out lucky. Of
course I was there to do my duty, as
the other boys. Things are quiec
enough in the lines at times, and
other times they are enough that one '
would not care how soon it would
'op. Must say that I held a quiet
nerve and a level head all the time.
The only thine: a man can do is onlv i
I
protect himself in every way possible
and take chances at. the rest. Am of
opinion that this war will not last
much lonsrer. Don't think I am home- j
sick, f^r I am not. The boys in gen- j
.eral are passing it off with much less '
crumbling than when in the 'States.'*.
After writing of private matters he ,
goss on to say: "Don't think I am
suffering for anything, for I am not. j
We have plenty to eat and get plenty
money to buy our little extra needs.'
Well. I will know a few things to tell
vo" when I arrive again which I fee!
sure you will fte inerested in. Don't
worry, for I feel that all will be to our
advantage. 'Don't think I will ibe tak.
en off by some of the temptations,
as vou have heard of others. Unle?s
T am effected by the Germans I will
come back like I left."
Third From Corp. Livingston. '
Under date of July 12 Corporal J
R. Livingston writes his mother from
Belgium that he is still in excellent
health, which he says "is a great
blessing from above," and he acknowledges
that the upraise for good
health is due to the source above
whence it. comes, "so don't worry
about me; with the help of God I j
will be back to my dear old parents j
" _ I
some day." .He believes "this is a'
good cause that causes this separation ;
ard we will be blessed for it in some
way. though it may not be as we ask
it?but we sometimes know not. what \
I
we are asking. My belief is that if
we trust in the Lord in true faith we !
will be together asrain. It. may sound
strange to you when I say that I am |
satisfied and so far from home and In !

Letter From Hfinrv fL BiVVprt
Henry C. Dickert writes a letter to
his father, (Mr. Geo. T. 'Dickert, formerly
of Newberry 'but now living in?
Columbia, jn which he says he is "enjoying
an almost perfect health and
getting lots to eat. Sidney is now
camping near me for a few days. He
is getting along nicely. Was talking
with him yesterday afternoon. From
the way he speaks the war is not
worrying him at all; in fact,, he
seems to like it. You would laugh to
hear him tell about getting caught in
what is known as the crying gas. And
lo make things worse he has a misplaced
eyebrow just about as thick
as the hair in the palm of your hand
As to the war I don't seem uch change
only that if the Germans make another
drive like they did this soring the game
will be up with them. Our troops arp
doing some great fighting, but the ,
fighting must be done in such a man- j
ner that it is hard to tell what they i
are really doing. Yesterday evening i
I was at a point where I could watch j
the operation of our artillery and see j
i
every shell that burst. I don't see j
how any living being could stay in !
and around where they were falling
last night. About 12 p. m. the Americans
used a very large gun from a
point that must have gotten the Germans'
goat for they at ones dropped *
about fifty shells in the spot where j
the gun was, and 'before the Boche
"knew what had happened the same
^un orened fire from another point:
and what made thipgrS *o bad
on the square-headed Dutchman's

the American runners with their

wri'e more but my paper is very low
and it is too far to walk in plain view
of the Boche to the Y. M. C. A. dugout:
furthermore it is raining."

The Work of the Y. tf. C. A.
V Xo. 136 Camp Jackson. S. <J.
Aug. 6, 1918.
Dear Mr. Editor:
There is so much being said these j
days about the Y. M. C. A. work with j
the soldier hoys that I am constrained j
to write you, a letter about the work
and to call attention to a phase of th?
work about which so little is known
ty the general public. I
The work here in camp with the:
boys is a great one and there is & !
o-re^t need for more mep especially
for the work on the other side.
- - - - . . . i
Before being assigned to work ia
the camps the Y. M. C. A. men are
cent to the .Blue Ridge Association
srrounds for a period of intensive
training and I want to tell the people
e-omPthin2: of Blue Ridge and the work
that is being done there.
(F^'vp thousand ODe hundred and
of^htv-eight. different persons were
trained at Blue 'Ridge 'between June
1. 1917. snd Aneust 1, 1918. Of these
c^'*en hundred and seventeen are now
J
Army and Navy' Secretaries and are
?ervint? our soldiers and sailors in all
T>?r* s rf the world.
At least two thousand more Armv
pTirt \nw ;cp<%rptaiM>s will be trained
ft -Blue Ridge during the next ten
months. ;Besides this great war work
Blue Ridare is meetinq- four great
re?^. First., it. is training the leader*
in moral and Christian work for
all the colleges of the south. In the
second olace. -R1ue Ridge is ministering
to the Young iMen's and Younr
Women's Christian 'Associations in.
their city, industrial, railroad, boys,
and other departments p.f service by
furnishing trained leadership. On the
third place. Blue Ridge is a place for
training the vouns: neoDle in the
churches in an interdenominational
manner. Fourthly. Blue Ridere has a
distinctive place as a conference
grounds in that it heads up and fosters
many c,f the Social Service interests
of the south. Dr. W. W. Alexander
of the V. 1VT. C. iA. War Work
says of it: "I consider Blue Ridg3
Association the most important institution
in the social and religious
life of the south." j
T wish more ^f our neonle could gro
t.here and catch the spirit of service ,
which permeates it.
