There are thousands of keys In the world—only one or two unlock your door. So we know of only one or two combinations of iron that seem to do the work. By far the most generally useful prescription we know of Is Vinol. It has helped a great many cases in this town. It contains the medicinal qualities of cod liver oil, iron- that-can-be-digested, and a little table wine. It works wonders in weak women, pale children, old people, and any run-down condition.

Embroidery occupies an important place among the season’s decoratior.s, and blouses of white flannel or cashmere are lavishly elab orated in black and white Corticelii silk in a pattern of bow knots and fancy stitches. A tucked yoke that was in pointed outline at the center of the front was the characteristic feature of the shaping of a waist of this order, that was made to accom pany a Norfolk suit. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Mrs. Jim Dye, of Chester, is a guest at the home of W. 8.

The chorus for the cantata, Esther, is well underway, great enthusiasm is manifested by the memners, and many have already committed their parts. Those interested in the suc cess of the cantata had their hopes satisfied when they heard the rehear sal of Tuesday night; the music is inspiring and pleasing, and Prof. Maxim Uas them fully under control. A little explanation may be neces sary concerning Esther, and Mor- decai, and Hainan, aud how, in the reign of Artaxerxes, the whole nation of the Jews was in danger of perish ing. The king gave orders to certain persons to choose out of the virgins that were in his kingdom those that were esteemed the most comely. 80 when a great number of these virgins were gathered together, there was found a damsel whose name was Esther. 8be being a Jew, was most beautiful of all the rest; she was brought up with her uncle Mordec&i. When Esther appeared before the king, he was pleased with her and made her his wife. 8ome time after the marriage, two eunuchs plotted against the king. A servant of one of tne eunuchs, by birth a Jew, made known the consoiracy to the queen’s uncle, Mordecai, and be, hy means of Esther made it known to the king; this troubled the king, but he dis covered the truth and hanged the eunuchs upon a cross, while at that time he gave no reward to Mordecai. Now there was one Hainan, the son of Hammedatha, that used to go into the king. All the foreigners and Persians worshiped him as Artaxerxes had commanded, but Mordecai was so wise and observant of bis own country’s laws that he would not bow down to the man. This made Haman indignant and he not only commanded that Mordecai be killed but the whole Jewish race. This of coarse meant death to the queen. Esther sent a message to Mordecai to go to Shushan and gather all the Jews together and request that they abstain from all food for three days and make supplication to God and she and her maids would do the same that their people might be saved. As the story goes on, we find that when she approached the king, that he held out the golden sceptre which was a sign that she was favorably re ceived. The king told Esther that she should have what she asked even to the half of his kingdom. The success of Esther remained wholly in the fact that she relied on G^ri to carry her through, and she had the united prayers of her people to sustain her in her anxiety for her tribe.
