regained health :—
Frankfort, KY.—"I suffered so much
with female weakness that I could not
do my own work,
had to hire it done.
I heard so mush
about Lydia E. Pink,

Compound that I
tried it. I took three
bottles and I found
it to be all you
Claim. Now I feel aa
well as ever' did and
am able to do all my

recommend it to any woman suffering
from female weakness. You may pub-
lish my letter if you wish. "—Mrs. JAmisS

No woman suffering from any form of
female troubles should lose hope until
she has given'Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg-
etable Compound a fair trial.
This famous remedy, the medicinal
ingredient's of which are derived from
native roots and herbs, has for forty
years proved to be a most valuable tonic
and invigorator of the female organism.

rompnuies returning at different times.
The first company was taken captive
In 000 3I. C., and this first company of
returndg ones iris, according to the
date at the top of the page in my Bible,

Lord Codd ie. 0c„Iva )ave Cyrus his

might go up to Jerusalem to build the
(louse and that those who did not go
should help those who slid go with sil-
ver and gold and goods and beasts, be-
sides the frac wi11 offering for the
house.
Many maiming, homesick ones among
the captives may possibly have given
up all hope of ever returning, or if re-
minded by a fete who did not forget
the words of Jeremiah that the Lord
had said they would retni'n (for there
are always a few believers like the
Simmons and Annas at the time of our
Lord's birth) they probably said it

There aro always nanny leren among
the Lord's .professed followers who
have no use for those who take the
word of God literally, but Itis word
stands in spite of all the scoffers and
unbelievers and shall be literally ful-
filled in Ilia time.
Daniel had been n eaptiveallthrough
the seventy year's, and he tells us that
about this tine, because he had been
studying the words of Jeremiah, he
gave himself to prayer and fasting,
with confession of the sins of himself
and his people, land earnestly asked
God to forgive their sins and to re-
member Jerusalem. That prayer
brought Gabriel from heaven to Daniel
before he had finished praying to tell
him of the Messiah, iris suffering and
glory, and of the time of a greater
restoration than the approaching' one
from Babylon, when his people sicced
be forgiven their iniquity and obtain
everlasting righteousness (Dan. ix).
It is just as difficult to get people to
believe God now as It was then, and
all the talk today is men and muni-
tions, and who shall win in the great
cortftlet, and how peace can be brought
about, but the thought of the Lord in-
terfering and doing' something does not
enter matey minds, yet it is written:
"Our God shall come and shall not
keep silence. A fire shall devour be-
fore 114, and -1t shall be very tem-
pestuous round about Him.” "Behold
the Lord v; tet tome with fire and -with
His chariot, like n whirlwind, a e
for by lire ami by Ais sword will the
Lord plead with all flesh" (Ps. 1, 13;

$16,000,000..00 a year.
Every minute of the city and night it costs $30 to minister to the sick and wounded

Last year Ontario's magnificent contribution paid for the entire work of the British Iced

This year, in view of the greater need, it is earnestly and confidently hoped that Ontario's
