DO YOU GET DP WITH A LAME BACK ? KUnc) TroaMe Makes You Miserabk. Sx, „ , i it. r 1 Almost everybody who rea.ds the news- ffiipers is sure to know of the wonderful cures made by Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney, Jiver and bladder remedy. It is the great medi- i cal triumph of the nine teenth century; dis covered after years of scientific research by , Dr. Kilmer, the emi nent kidney and blad der specialist, and is wonderfully successful In. promptly curing lame i>ack, kidney, bladder, uric acid trou bles and Bright’s Disease, which is the worst <orm of kidney trouble. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is not rec ommended for everything but if you have kid ney, liver or bladder trouble it will be found lust the remedy you need. It has been tested In so many ways, in hospital work, in private pract ! ce, among the helpless too poor to pur chase relief and has proved so successful in every case that a special arrangement has been made by which all readers of this paper »ho have not already tried it, may have a ^sample botti* sent free by mail, also a bock telling more about Swamp-Root and hew to find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble.

I remark, we must bring the religion of Christ into our employ- ! ruents. “Oh.” you say, “that is very well If a man handle large sums of money t r if he have an e::t« nsive traf fic. but in the humble werk in life that I am called to tue sphere is too small ! for the aeticu of such grand, heavenly I principles." Who told you so? Do you not know that G d watches the faded 1 leaf on the brook’s surface ns certainly es he does the path of a blazing sun? j A..1 the moss that creeps up the side ' of the rock makes as much impression i upon God’s mind as the waving tops I of Oregon pine and Lebanon cedar. | ani the alder, crackling under the cow’s hoof, sounds ns loud in Gad’s ear ! as the snap of a world’s conflagration. When you have anything to do in life, i however humble it may seem to be. God is always there to help you to do it. If your work is that of a fisher- resounding position; text. 1 Corinthi ans x. 31. “Whether, therefore, ye eat ! man. then God will help you. as he or drink or whatsoever ye do, do all t) I helped Simon when he drogaod G( li the glory of God.** When the apostle in this text sets forth the idea that so common an ac tion as the taking of food and drink is to be conducted to the glory of God. he proclaims the imp rtauee of religion ties: ret. If your work is drawing wa ter then he will help you. as whin he talked at the well curb to the Samari tan woman. If you are engaged in the more grace than would have mad? twenty martyrs pass triumphantly tin- ugh the fire. If y u are not faith ful in an insignificant position in life, you would not be f .ithful in a pan’ mission. If you cannot stand *h? bite of a midge, how could you endure the breath of a basilisk? Do not think that any work G d gives y ;u to da in the world is on too r.nail a scale for you to do. The whole universe is not ashamed to*take care < f one little flower. Plato had a fable which I have now nearly forgotten, but it ran something like this: He said spirits of the other world came back to this world to find a body and find a sphere of work. One spirit came and took the body of a king and did his work: another spirit came and took the body of a poet and did bis work: after awhile Ulysses came, and he said: “Why. all the fine bodies are taken, and all the grand work is taken. There is nothing left f< r me.” And some one njilie i. “Ah. the best one has been left fos you." Ulysses said. “What’s that?" And the r* ply was. “The body of a comm n man. doing a common work cust m house, he will lead you. as lie ; f or a common reward.” A go >J led Matthew sitting at the receipt of fable f< r the world and jus f as good a customs.

If there is any thing glad about it. anything beautiful about it. anything important about it. we ought to be continuously discuss ing. I have noticed that men just iu proportion as their Christian expe rience is shallow talk about funerals and graveyards and tombstones and deathbeds. Ihe real, genuine Chris tian man talks chiefly about this life ind the great eternity beyond and not so much about the Insignificant pass between those two residences. And ytt b ‘tv few circles there are wher-* the religion of Jesus Christ is welcome. 1 <io into a circle even of Christian peo- i pie. where they are full of joy and hi- i larky. a!»d talk uliout Christ or heaven ' and everything is immediately silenced. ' As on a summer day when the forests | are full of hfe. chatter, chirrup and ; carol—a mi^ty chorus of bird harmo ny. every tree branch an orchestra—if a nawk appear iu the sky. every voice slops and the forests are still. Just so 1 have seen a lively religious circle silenced on the appearance of anything like religious < on versation. No one had anything to say save perhaps some old patriarch iu the corner of tb<- room, wh i really thinks that something ought to be said under the circumstances: so he puts one foot over the other and heaves a long sigh and says. “Oh. yes; that's no. that’s so!” It Make# the Heart Glad. My friends, the religion of Jesus Christ is something to talk about with a glad heart. It is brighter than the waters: it is more cheerful than the sunshine.
