SUFFERED FROM HER NERVES. Mrs. Thomas Harris, 8 .Corrigan St., Kingston, Ont., writes: "I had been a constant sufferer, for many years, with my nerves, and was unable to sleep at night, or do any work through the day. I at last decided to consult a doctor and find out what was really the trouble. The first one told are I would have to go under an operation before I would be well, but I would not consent to this. One day I took a fit of crying, and it seemed that if anyone spoke to me I would have to order them out of the house. I must have been crying two hours when my insurance agent came in. He advised me to try a box of Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills, and I at once sent to the drug store and got two boxes, and before I had there taken I felt like a different person. I have told others about them, and they have told me they would not be without them. I am very thankful I started to take Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills."

Lest too many people should become interested the adven- ture was essayed on the night of Oct. 2. Early uext day the travelers and their guides reached tbe rebel out- posts. Tlie young lady, who seemed to be at home in this wild country, at once urged her horse into a pace whol- ly beyond the equestrian powers of ber staid companions. They protested vainly. She waved a farewell band, cantered over several miles of a rough road and dashed up to the Liberation- ist headquarters about 8 o'clock. There was no hesitancy about her movements. She drew rein in approv- ed gaucho style, bringing her mount to a dead stop from a gallop, "Where is the president?" she asked breathlessly. "There, senliora," said an orderly,. pointing to a marquee open on every side, wherein De Sylve sat in confer• encs with his stag, She entered the tent and uttered a little scream of de- light when • the president, who was writing at a big table, happened to glance at her. De Sylva rose hastily. with an amazed look on his usually unemotional face. Forthwith the girl flung herself into his arms. "Father!" "Carmelal" - San Benavldes, whose back was turned, heard the joyous cries of the reunited father and daughter. They were locked in each others embrace, and the eyes of every man present were drawn to a pathetic and un- expected m e e t- ing. For that rea- son and because none gave a thought to him the pallor thnt changed the bronze of bis forebead a n d cheeks into a particularly un. healthy looking tint of olive green passed unnoticed.

Yes, Salvador was there -by ber side .--striving most despefately to look 'ov- ernice, They clasped bands. "You have come to briug me luck, Carmelo men;" said De Sylva, stroking his daughter's hair affectionately. "Today we make our first real ad- vance.

"Adeos, senhoral" echoed San Bena- vides, bringing ills beels together with a click and saluting. Be gathered a number ot papers from the table with nervous baste aid at once began to issue instructions to several otdcers. De Sylva renewed the signing of docu- ments. Russo abet he conversed in low tones. A buzz of talk broke out in the tent. Carmela went out, unhitched her tired horse and walked to the house. Filled with tumultdous memories, ber heart all throbbing at the prospect of her father's fortunes being re- stored. the Senhora de Sylva was en- tering a gate tbai led to the left front of the house when a young man came out whom she had seen leaving the headquarters tent.

The close connection which exists between the heart and the kidneys is well known nowadays. . As, soon as kidneys are diseased, arterial tension is increased and the heart functions are attacked. When the kidneys no Longer •' pour forth waste, uremic poisoning occurs and the person dies, and the cause is often given as heart disease, or disease of brain or lungs, It is a good insurance against such a risk to send 10 cents for a large trial package of eAnuric"-the latest dis- covery of Dr. Pierce. Also send a sample of your water. This will be examined without charge by expert chemists at Dr. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y. When you edffer from backache, frequent or scanty urine, rheumatic pains here or there, or that constant tired worn-out feeling, it's time to write Dr. Pierce, describe your symptoms and get his medical opinion without charge -absolutely free. This eAnurid" of Doctor Pierce's is found to be 37 times mom active than lithia, for it dissolves uric acid in the system as hot water does sugar. Simply ask for Dr. Pierce's Anuric Tablets. There can be no imitation. Every package of eAnuric" is sure to be Dr. Pierce's. You will find the signa- ture on the package just as you do on Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery for blood and stomach, WORRY, DESPONDRFIQY. Kidney Disease is suspected by medical men when patients complain ot backache or sinew with irregular urination, dis- turbed, too frequent,' scanty or painful passage. The general symptoms iserhen. matte pains or neuralgia, .headaches, dizzy spells, irritability, despondency, weakness and general misery. Worry is a frequent cause and sometimes a symptom of kidney disease.

SUNDAY SCHOOL Lesson I. --Third Quaver, For July 2, 1916. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson,' Acts xvii, 1-15. Memory Verses, 11, 12 -Golden Text, Acts v, 31 -Commentary Prepared by. Rev. D. M. Stearns. In the lesson of two weeks ago we saw Paul and Silas leaving Philippi after the night of wonderful events. Before they departed they comforted the household of Lydia and the breth- ren, who bad no doubt been mutts in prayer for them (chapter xvi, 40). He would no doubt comfort them, as be did in his letter to them, by the as- surance that all that had happened had fallen out rather unto the further- ance of the gospel, and as his great desire was "by all means to save some" he could and did rejoice in spite of all his sufferings and shameful treatment (Phil..;, 12, 18; I Cor. ix, 22). His next place of testimony was Tbessalonica, where in the Jewish syn- agogue for three Sabbath days he rea- soned with them out of the Scriptures, working between times at his trade night ;and day that he might not be any expense to them (Tbess. it 8, 9). The gospel he .preached was in the power of the Holy Spirit, for he spoke not as pleasing men, but God, wlrj trieth our hearts, and they received ft not as the word of men, but as it 1s in truth the word of God,' and it effectual- ly worked in those who believed, leading them to tarn to God from idols to serve the living and true God and to wait for Ills Son from heaven, who, had delivered them from the wrath to come (1 These. 1, 9, 10; it' 13). Judging from the two epistles to the Thessalonians, probably the first that Paul wrote, we cannot help no- ticing how felly he must have instruct- ed nstructed them in the coming again of the Lord Jesus, both His coming for and His coming with His saints (I Theis. 1, 9, 10; ii, 19; id. 13; iv, 16-18; v, 23). • Then in his sel_ond epistle he cleared updor them some difficult les which they had concerning His coming in glory and the great .and dreadful clay ofthe"Lord, The e(- e etof this sadly neglected out gi2dn4alw, I 1 !haveorioeus seen itoctrifore overisfortyaysas years% 10 nhtr]re ,people more olive to tell out ;the glad tidings and to label' more earnestly to bring the king dom (1Thess. 138)., In 'verse 3 our less on we,note that Paul open ed to ahem the Word concerning the necessity thatjthe Messiah should suffer and rise isg,ain from the dead, but can you teachers who who read this 61othat7 Do you see the promise of a de- 5iverei' and the wa.y of satvatioil arta the asaurauce of resurrection glory in Gen 111,15,21 el?, Do .you see the death and resurrection of Christ (ores bedewed in the story of Isaac in Gen. xxii?

As to the kingdom, ,with Israel asilhe rent oe it is in the Prophets every, he. e Acts iii, 21; x. 43; xiii 3122-130; , If those who 110)0r the word would not take the teachers or thepreaoher's wordaor what they betie:ve but test all that they hear by the bible itself they would then be able to say. as the Samaritans did, "Now we believe, not because of thy saying, for we ,have heard (hint ourselves" (Jobu iv, 42). Believers will never be well establish- ed nor grow as they should unless they hear God speak to their own hearts directly -from His own word. Our hearts should say, "I will bear What God the Lord will speak;" then His message will come expressly to us, as it did to Heektel (Ps, Mese, 8; Ezek. i, 3). In verses 4, 12 we read of some iesults at Tbessalonica and Be- rea. At the former place some believ- ed and of the devout Greeks a great multitude and of the chief women not a few; at the latter many believed, also some honorable women who were Greeks and of men not a few. The results in every place are brief- ly summed 'up in chapter xxviii, 24, "Some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not." We will 'always find the four kinds of soil of the parable of the sower, but wheth- er results are great oesmall or adverse we should never be discouraged, for He is not, and His word wail not fail to accomplish His pleasure, whether for lite or death, but He is not willing that any should perish (Isa. sift, 4; Iv, H; II Cor. 11, 15, 16; II Pet. 111 9). The adverse results at these two *wee are seen ha verses 5 to 7, 13. When anything is accomplished for Ged the devil is ever ready to oppose sad blind and deceive, and so it will be till he shall be shut up in the pit (Rev. xx). Being persecuted at Berea, Paul's friends brought him to Athens, leaving Silva and Timothy at Berea. But Pani sent back word by bis con- ductors that they should come to him with all speed (verses 14, 15). While believers should be able to say, "Truly, our fellowship is with the Father and With His Son, Jesus Christ," yet the fellowship of human beings who can say no with us is often very refreshe Lig On one occasion Paul wrote,' "God, who comforteth these who are east down, comforted us by the come ing of Sl5tus." Andagain, "I bad no rest in my spirit because I found not 'thus, my brother" (I John 1, 3; II Cor. ' �/n `self '.rte A Christian college -home, healthful situation.

If there were a siege, how long could sodiers and civilians live after the food supplies gave out? Science says that if he can got drinking wa- ter an ordinary man can exist for about thirty days without food, At the end of that time the machinery of the body will not be spoilt, and can be entirely strengthened back to its old standard by careful feeding, About one-quarter of our body weight is fat, and it Is mostly this fat which is absorbed as food during the period of starvation. We can absorb and burn up our muscles until 60 per cent., of their weight has gone. We can do the same with from 30 to 40 per cent. of our livers and digestive organs and 20 per cent, of our lungs. Our hearts can lose 10 per cent, and our brains and nervous -system can lose five per cent. It will thus be seen that the more vital organs, brain and heart, yield least of their valuable substance for the life of the body; wbilst the less valuable sub- stances, fat, muscles, and so on, are consumed first.

P.'s views, or thought he was slack in his duties, they did not hesitate to "sack" him and get another in his place! In the reign of Edward II., for ex ample, M.P,'s were usually paid 4s. a day, though- oven that sum was con- sidered so exorbitant that many con- etituoncies refused to send a repre- sentative to Parliatnent, while others compromised on some lesser pay- ment, Thus Ipswich paid its mem- ber only 5s. -a week. The last constituency to pay its member before the 1400 a year was granted was Bull, which paid An- drew Marvell, the famous poet, Os. 8d, every time he attended Parlia- ment.
