Ten years ago a friend told me to try
Thedford’s Black-Draught, which I did,
and 1 found it to be the best family medi
cine for young and old.
I keep Black-Draught on hand all the
time now, and when my children feel a
little bad, they ask me for a dose, and it
’ does them more good than any medicine
they ever tried.
We never have a long spell of sick
ness in our family, since we commenced
using Black-Draught."
Thedford's Black-Draught is purely
vegetable, and has been found to regu
late weak stomachs, aid digestion, re
lieve indigestion, colic, wind, nausea,
headache, sick stomach, and similar
symptoms.
It has been in constant use fur more
than 70 years, and has benefited more
than • million people.

death’s destruction at the frave In
Bethany.
Death is not the outcome of God’s
will. It ig the outcome of the vio
lation ''of natural law, the effect of
natural causes, in a created order
perverted and spoiled by sin. "Byj
man sin entered into the world, and
death by sin."
Starlet fever or diphtheria enters
the dear thild’s body and leaves it
a ruin, and we try to train our
selves to believe' that this Is “kissing
the rod.” We are wrong; What

Jn discussing this profound ques

thoughts have come to him through
his reading, and especially from a
book review that some years ago
claimed his attention -and helped to j
lift his mind out of the rut of blam
ing Providence for almost every
thing that happens. He submits

Part FI,
m this second article I as^ >onr
permission, Mr. Editor, to speak out
my beliefs on thye subject of Provi
dence. with a freedom born of no
short lived/ impulse, hut of the
prayer and study of years.
Though years of frequent fellow
ship with sorrow, I have pondered
this problem, until it hap seemed it
times my heart would break with
sympathy for those by whom our
Father’s will is so misunderstood.
The busy brain and the busy hand
of a fellowman are withdrawn from
the arts and industries' of life,
and are. resting out in the grave
yard. The gloom of sorrow /ills the
scene once so full of sunshine and
when dhe little children laugh and
Tday without a thought of tomor-
toyrs grief and woe. The cry of
orphanage is heard from these or-
' phanaced ones to whom the voice >f
father and mother will speak no

ot her thild, or the little one is be
reft at its mother: and out of a de
sire doubtless, to proclaim the spy-
ereienty of Cod over His creations
add to recognize after some fashion
His hand in all the events o' life
we are told that Cod did tins, and
thus a fearful perversion of His'true
relation to human suffering, lo.-
siekn^s and death has spread like
nn untimely frost over"the*minds of
men
From Him, we are told came these
mysterious visitations; the pesti
|once that wrecking in darkness
the destruction that wasteth at
poonday; the railway rrash. the fin
tragedy the insidious disease, th
fever thatebreaks out in the beauti
ful child —all are charged up to
Providence. Does not this discount
our faith irf ( a merriful and loving
Cod. and must we not break away
from such forms of popular speech
which continually misrepresent and
dishonor Cod in His relations to
death? We mujtf' teach ourselves
to stop saying at the death bed of a
friend. "God is taking them away
from you.” It is not only trite, but
cruel, as well as untrue. If this is
the only consolation one can speak
to a broken heart, it would be bet
ter to say nothing.
God hates death. Death is His
enemy as well as ours. He who

Speedy and
There’s little comfort in most low priced
cars. You can’t use their speeds. They
jostle you — they ride roughly — they
don’t hold the road.
g * »' f
‘The $635 Overland is different. It is. not
only the speediest of low priced cars—
' But you can use the full speed of its power
ful motor when you need it.
Easy Riding
It has long 42-inch, easy riding, shock ab
sorbing cantileverrearsprings. In addition
the 75 B Overland is a longer car—104-
inch wheelbase. And it has 4-inch tires.
Its smoothness and ease of riding at any
speed would do justice to a much larger
and heavier car.
