"V Wl'MMS HOUSE l l . k A ^. 0 ♦ WORK Thousands of American women in our homes are daily sacrificing their lives to duty. In order to keep the home neat and pretty, the children well dressed and tidy, women overdo.

It is to these faithful women that LYDIA E.PINKHAM’S VEGETABLE COMPOUND Domes as a boon and a blessing, as it did to Mrs. F. Ellsworth, of Mayville, N. Y., and to Mrs. W. P.

Pinkham’s Vcpo- tableCompound helped me wonderfully, and I am so well that 1 can do as big a day’s work as I ever did. I wish every lick woman would try it. FACTS FOR SICK WOMEN.

Kyle Davenport's A SHORT SERMON. “R. e. J.” Ha* Something to Say on “Fools.” “Let no man deceive himself. If any man thinketh himself to be wise among you in this world, let him be come a fool, that he may become wise. 1 ' This text which may be found in 1st Cor., 3:18, is too often used as an excuse for ignorance by some peo ple who profess to be Christians. It ha s keen well and truely said that “education enlightens worlds,” and I am a friend to education. We need enlightenment, especially on the Bi ble. I need it. you need it; we all need it. What we need is to be able to get the original ideas of the writ ers impressed upon oar minds, and I am sure that to know how to read Hebrew and Greek would greatly As sist us in the study of God’s word, and yet we know that it is too often the ease that men try to use know ledge of his kind to change the sound and sense of the Scriptures. Well, do we remember how. when a boy in North Carolina, (our native State) we would quake and trimble and lay low and sing easy when they would tell us that the fool killer was com ing our way. We really thought that there was a man appointed to that task. However, we have found out our mistake and learned that this task is accomplished by his satonic majesty, the devil who cooperates with the dispensers, blind tigers and durnkards. Many who think they are wise now. when the midnight cry is sounded will be like the foolish vir gins and find they are deceived. “The fool has said in his heart there is no God” and as long as he says that in his heart, he is a fool regardless of what he says in words. “The way is so plain thet a fool need not err therein.’’ And yet how many there are who allow men to deceive them and cause them even to fight against IToliness. when God says in his words without it no man shall aee Him. Friends, our Lord is soon coming, and unless we have a pure heart we will be shut out from the marriage supper of the lamb. Some people are ready to call everyone without a college education a fool. Some seem to think all the poor people are fools (we would if it was through choice that they were poor) and there are others who call all who are bom without common sense or reason a fool. 'Now, in these three classes we have fools from a human standpoint, but God’s word teaches us different, it does not teach that the illiterate, the poor and the idiots are fools. In the Bible we read of a man who was so rich he knew not where to store his goods. No doubt he was a learned man, and yet because he failed to give God the glory the Lord said “Thou Fool, this night shall thy soul be required of thee.’’ And another man the Lord said he would liken to a foolish man that built his house on the sands. From there two lessons alone we learn, that the man who fails to ac cept Christ and be saved is the fool in a Bible sense. A man may be president of a col lege and be a fool, or a man may not know his letterp and be a wise man in the sight of God. We read in the 19th verse of this chapter that “the wisdom of the world is foolishness with God.” We do not have to choose between salvation and education. Thank God. we may have both. Af ter reading so clearly that Jesus, our Saviour counts all such as are un saved fools, it is easy to understand that St. Paul, in our text desires to convince the signer of his foolish or sinful condition in order that he may repent and he made wise. The Lord says “he that heareth their sayings, I will liken him to a wise man that built his house on a rock, and the rains decended. and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house and it fell not, for it was founded on a rock.” How are you building? On the rock, or on the sand. Jesus Christ Is the only foundation. "A rock in a weary land, and a shelter in the time of storm” and all who build thereon are wise. There was once a young man who went off to college and graduated with honors. When he came home he met his minister, who told him that he had heard that he was an ex pert on mathematics. The boy re : plied that he could work any sum that he ever saw. The nthe minister gave him a sum that caused him to get saved, and to you who are un saved, we wish to put this same problem. “What shall It profit a‘ man if he should gain the whole world and lose his own soul, or what will a man give in exchange for his soul.” R.
