--"Don't!" the sudden protest might',
have been a cry of physical pain, "Ma',:
Van Vechten,,I am wholly unworthy
of any gentleman's forbearance and
courtesy; the meet ordinarly civility
from you but heaps humiliation upon
humiliation. I deserve nothing from
you but scorn and contumely. That, I
can endure; but kindness-?" She was
enable to proceed.
At last Van Vechfen was beginning•
Le comprehend the motive behind this
visit,.
"If you don't compose yourself," he
'paid pleasantly, "we are not Likely to,
Melva at any sort of :understanding.
For Your Root Crop. We will mix
it for y'oti at the store. •
!"Suppose You Tell Me Who You Are."
Please drag a chair over close to me -
I can't see you very well, you know;
nor can I observe all the niceties of
behavior with which I would like to
celebrate this event and make you
welcome. For, believe me, nobody
ever 'crowed my threshold who was
more welcome!"
He could see well enough, however,
to note that any reference to his pres-
ent incapacity hurt the girl. She did
pot stir.
"If you don't,"
shall be obliged
anyhow."
At once she brought a chair over
close to him and sat down. Support-
ing her chin with one hand, she rest-
ed the elbow upon an arm of the chair.
She was so winsome and pretty, aud
albeit so distressed, that Van Vochten
wanted more than anything else to
a ludicrous her seeludi rous side of the.
wbole affair. But as yet he had no;
hint of how vitally serious it was to
her; at present her intense nature
was much too earnest to be swayed
by any attempt at levity, or any play
of his cynical humor..
Prettysoon she gained her self-con-
trol, and began speaking with a degree
of calmness.
"Mr, Van Vechten, if somebody had
told me the story of what happened
Tuesday afternoon about some woman
other than myself, I would have be-
lieved it too monstrous to be true."
"But you did nothing," Van Vechten
objected. "You were in deadly peril;.
the fellow was irresponsible."
"I could have broughtyou assist-
ance,
s i •t -
g 9 6
ance and I did not-deliberately.I
even kept the affair
to myself, not
mentioning it to a living soul; 'except
tb.at I took measures to protect myself
from future similar annoyance by that
dreadful creature." In a sudden pas-
sionate outburst, she sat upright. "My
'God! -he might have murdered you!"
"But he did not, you see. Nor did
he injure you. So why talk about it?
'I can think of a thousand pleasanter
;topics -yourself, for example. Sup,
pose you tell me who you are?"
The dark eyes were regarding him
tragically.
"My name does not in the least mat,
ter," she demurred. "1 am a'despicable
creature who had the effrontery to
hate you just because your name hap-
pens to be Van Vechten."
That young gentleman pricked up
his ears at this. He quickly inter,
'posed:
"That being the case, I seem to be
more concerned than you are willing
to admit. Why should you hate the
name Van Vechten? I must confess
that I have added nothing u to its line
;ter, yet neither have I besmirched it,
for allowed the clan's gonfalon to trail
in the dust. You see that my feelings
towtird you are anything but harsh
'and vindictive; so why not ten me

"No, no -I am too full of shame and
;mortification!" she cried bitterly. "I

WOMAN IN
TERRIBLE STATE
Finds Help in Lydia E. Pink.
ham's Vegetable
Compound.
Cape Wolfe, Canada.-" Last March I
was a complete wreck. I had given up
all hope of getting better or living any
length of time, as I was such a sufferer
from female troubles. But I took Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and
today I am in good health and have a
pair of twin boys two months old and
growing finely. I surprised doctors and
neighbors for they all know what a
wreck I was.
"Now I am healthy, happyy and hearty,
and owe it all to Lydia E. Pinlcham's
remedies, You may publish this letter
if you like.. I think if more women
used your remedies they would have
better health." -Mrs. J. T. COOK, Lot
No. 7, Cape Wolfe, P.E.I,, Canada.
Because your case is a ditl'ieult one, and
doctors having done you no good, do not
continue to suffer without giving Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable, Compound a
trial. It surely has remedied many
eases of female ills, such 'as inflamma
tion, ulceration, displacements, tumors,
irregularities, periodic pains, backache,
and it mayexactly be what you need.
The Plnkham record is a proud and
peerless one. It is
a record of constant
victory over the ob-
stinate ills of women
-,-ills that deal out
despair. It is an es-
tablished fact that
Lydia E. Pinkbam's
VegetableCompound
has restored health LYB . 5 P,0
to thousands of such suffering women.
Why don't you try it if you need such a
medicine?
(myself before you. I hated You. But
)you are a courageous, noble, high,
'minded gentlema•. If yon knew -eve
ierything-"
Again she was unable to go on.
.4 "Why not tell me --everything?" he
gently urged.
"You would hate and despise me
!more than ever."
i He took one of her hands In hie.
i "It is impossible that I should hate
or despise you; there is the very best
for reasons why I could not, My ap.
,pearance is all agaivat any cause I
might plead, but -you are trembling!'
he abruptly broke off.
"I am utterly wretched!" she
;moaned,
' For once in his life, at least, Van
!Vechten was at a loss. The girl was
so determined to humble herself, the
idea was so repugnant to his nice
cense of fitness. and his attempts to
THE WEAK SPOT
IN THE BACK.
When the kidneys get ill the back
gives out.
But the back is not to blame.
'1'he ache comes from the kidneys,
which lie under the small of the back.
Therefore, dull pain in the back, or
sharp, quick twines, are warnings of
sick kidneys -warnings of kiclney trouble.
Plasters and liniments will not cure
a bad back, for they cannot reach the
kidneys which cause it.
Doan's Kidney Pills reach the kidneys
themselves. They are a special kidney
and bladder medicine. They heal the
diseased surface of kidneys and bladder,
and help'them to act freely and naturally.
Mrs. Chester Romain, Port Coulonge,
Que., writes: `I had been troubled with
sore back for over four years, and could
get nothing to dome any good until
I heard of your Doan's Kidney Pills.
T got three boxes, and took them and
now I am completely cured."

Lesson VIII.—Second Quarter,
For May 23, 1915.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the 'Lesson, 1I Sam. il, 1-7; v,
1 -5 -Memory Verses, v, 2, 3 -Golden
Text, Ps. xxviii, 7 -Commentary Pre.
pared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
In the two portions assigned for this
lesson we have the record of David's
second and third anointings over
Judah and over all Israel (11, 4; v,
3), the [first, anointing being at the
hands of Samuel (L Sam. xvi, 13). As
all anointings are suggestive of the
work of the, Holy Spirit and of Him
whom' God anointed with the Flory
Ghost and with power(Actsx, •88);
who also anoints and seals the believer
with the Holy Spirit (II Cor. 1, 21, 22),
we will turn for a few minutes to the
other lesson for today in I Cor. ail,
1-13 to notice that no one can say that
Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy
Spirit, and that by the same Spirit
each believer receives gifts for service
as the Spirit sees fit; to every man ac-
cording to his several ability, to every
man his work (Matt. xxv, 15; Mark
xifi, 34). As our Lord Jesus Christ, the
son of David, is waiting for His king-
dom, when willHe occupy
the throne
of David, so all true believers anointed
kings and priests, associates of Him
who shall be a priest upon His throne,
the true Melchizedek, are waiting with
Him and for Him, He at the Father's
right hand and we in the conflict here
(Luke 9, 32, 33; Itev, 1, 5, 0; Zech. vi, 13;
Gen. xlv, 18; Ps. ex, 1, 4). While we
wait it is our privilege to suffer with
Him and to serve Him in any way or
place which He may assign to us,
knowing that the glory of His king-
dom will abundantly recompense 'for
all suffering or service during the little
while of waiting. Returning to our
lesson in Samuel, we note that, though
Saul was dead, the rule over all Israel
did not come to David at once, but in
Hebron over Judah for seven years
and then in Jerusalem over all Israel
and Judah for thirty-three years (chap-
ter v, 5).
We may find an analogy in the com-
ing of the kingdom of our Lord Jesus
Christ when all the kingdoms of this
world shall have become His (Rev. xi,
15), and we may then see more clearly
the significance of David's three anoint-
ings.
We cannot help noting David's la-
mentation over Saul and Jonathan,
with its thrice repeated "How are the
mighty fallen!" (II Sam. I, 19, 25, 27).
How he could say that Saul and Jona-
than were lovely and pleasant in their
lives 1 do not know unless on the same
principle that God diel not see iniquity
iu Jacob nor perverseness in Israel
r cerin a the
(Num. xxin 21),ace covering s n
s
wrong. We can more .easily under-
stand how David could say of Jona-
than, "Thy love to me was wonderful,
passing the love or women" (1, 26),

"I can highly reconnneild "Prnit-a-

lot of good and I cannot speak too
highly about them. About four years
ago, I commenced taking "Fruit-a-
tives" for general break -down and
!they did me a world of good. We
,bought a good many dollars worth.
'but it was money well spent because
they did all that you claim for them.
Their action is so pleasant, compared
with other laxatives, that I found only
pleasure, as well as health, in taking,
them. They seemed to me to be,
particularly suited to women, on
account of their mild and gentle action,
and I trust that some other women
may start taking "Fruit-a-tives" after
readingmy letter, and if they do, I am
satisfied the results will be the same

a"u rust ,esus ", 0) we � ••r..w tcs v iove
that was ever seen 00 known -the love
of God in Christ Jesus to sinners
(Rom. v, 5; John fid, 10; l John iii, 16;
iv, 10). See David's habit of inquiring
of the Lord concerning guidance iu all
matters of the kingdom (1i,1; v, 10, 23;
also I Sam. xxiii, 2, 4; xxx, 8), remind-
ing us of some of the good advice of
his son, Solomon, "in all thy ways ac-
knpwledge Him, and He shall direct
thy paths" (Prov. 111, 6).
Although David knew that the king-
dom
inedom was now his, he would not do
anything without tbe Lord's guidance
as to when and where- At the Lord's
command he went to Hebron with his
own and his faithful followers' house-
holds, and there the men of Judah
anointed him king over the house of
Judah. See the story of Hebron in
connection with Abraham and Isaac
and Caleb, and let as learn to live in
fellowship with God, David's words
to the men of Jabesh•gilead are for
us also, that we may be strong and
valiant for God (id, 7). The intervening
chapters in our lesson story tell of the
opposition to David by the house of
Saul. but that David waxed stronger
and stronger and the house of Saul
weaker and weaker (Iii, 1), In our
present conflict it cannot be said that
the devil is waxing weaker and weak-
er, for his greatest effort will be jest
before his final overthrow, but iu due
time be will he overthrown, and Jesus
Christ shall reign (l's. lexii, 11).
After David became1
.c• � kium over all
f
Israel it is written that "David went
on and grew great (went going and
grotviug- margin), and the Lord God
of hosts was with him" (v, 10). That
the Lord was with him is repeated
agate and again in his story (1 Sam.
xvi, 1S; xviil, 12, 14, 2.9) and reminds
us of this blessed assurance to Isaac,
Jacob, Muses, Joshua, Gideon aud oth-
ers aud of His word to all who go
forth in His 00010 as Elis messengers
(Gen. xxvi, 8; xxvili, 15; Ex. iii, 12;
Josh. 1, 11; Jude. vi, 10; Iso. xli, 10;
Hag. 11, 4, 5; Matt. xxviii, 20). The
Lord's presence does not insure us
rroedom from all adversaries, but it
Sloes assure us of victory over them.

Num. xi, 14; I Icings six, 7; Ps. xxxv,

nothing is too hare for Him (Gen. xv!ii,
19; Jer. xxxii, 17), and roli all cares
and trust Hint
and burdens upon
Him
to carry you and them. All real work
for God must be by the Spirit of God,
and when He is in control we will
fear no mountain nor despise any small
things (Zack. iv).

The Senate was a great disape
pointment to Bob last session, ride
figured, that .the iRed Chamber
would throw the 'votes!-for-)fSid-
iers bill out and give him and his
friends a chance to wave the ell
flag, Instead of .'that the bra,'e
old Senate, which is/ r subtle as it
is brave, got together and made
the bill as nearly perfect as poss-
ible. The Senate is a great obsta-
ole to coarse work in • the Lower
House, and it's Bob thattesnows it.
Hence these tears. The. real trout
hie with the Oppoe2tilon as, 'Bob
sees it, is its mibetllding partrio-

For instance, Premier Borden will

The Manitoba situation
The change of government in
Manitoba! 'occurred under circum-
stances almost unique. The legis-
lature was not in session, there
had been no recant vediet against
the government at the polls
and yet the entire cabinet' gave
their portfolios and retired' to
psis ate lite They even go further
and guaranted their former seats
in the legislature 'to 'opposition
candidates by acclamation
We can only parallel it by im-
agining the ,Borden IGrovernment
resigning under circumstances
which wuuld ,rake it quite feasi-
ble to return Libeled candid'ites
by acclamation in West )Toronto
and Dufferin. Naturally the pro-
vince 10 greatly stirred and specu-
lation is rife as to what has beep

The Roblin government has been
going down rade since ;the pro-
v incial (elections in 1010 and
should have thrown up the the
sponge after the elections of last
July. The scandal in connection
with the new parliament building
\vas the ifnal straw. Neverthe=
less, 'there will be much. dissatisfac

scandal is quietly hushed up A
change of government should not
