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. A female
weakness or displacement is often
brought on and they suffer in silence,
drifting along from bad to worse,
knowing well that they ought to
have help to overcome the pains and
aches which daily make life a burden.
It is to these faithful women that
LYDIA E.PINKHAM’S

as it did to Mrs. F. Ellsworth, of
Mayville, N. Y., and to Mrs. W. P.
Boyd, of Beaver Falls, Pa., who say:
“I was not able to do my own work,
owing to the female trouble from which
I suffered. Lydia E. 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.

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. E. J.
