Secure Your Order for Fertilizer Potash By Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege- table Compound -Their Own Stories HereTold. Edmonton, Alberta, Can. - " I think it is no more than right for me to thank you for what your kind advice and Lydia, E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound have done for me. 'When I wrote to you some time ago I was a, very sick woman suffering from female troubles. I had organic inflam- mation and could not stand or walk any distance. At last I was confined to my bed, and the doctor said I would have to go through an operation, but this I refused to do. A friend advised Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and now, after using three bottles of it, I, feel like a new woman. I most heartily recommend your medicine to all women who suffer with female troubles. I have also taken Lydia E. Pinkham's Liver Pills, and think they are fine. I will never be without the medicine in the house." -Mrs. Fundic Eecsncv, 903 Col- umbia Avenue, Edmonton, Alberta. The Other Case. Beatrice, Neb.-"Just after mymar- riage my left side began to pain me and the pain got so severe at times that I suffered terribly with it. I visited three doctors and each one wanted to operate on me but I would not consent to an op- eration. I heard of the good Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was doing for others and I used several bot- tles of it with the result that I haven't been bothered with my side since then. I am in good health andl have two little girls. "-Mrs.R-B.CRILD,Beatrice,Neb. SMILE ALL THE TIME Example of What Good Nature and Originality Will Do for, Any Man. Ey FLORENCE LILLIAN HENDER- SO N. For a week John Bartly had lived. week a half. The on two dollars and ahead, unless he secured employment,' would start with an empty pocket-, book and no credit. The situation 'rya's a desperate one. Still, John smiled. It was a habit with him, and no gloom or disap pointment could change it or daunt' him. A natural-born optimist, ener- getic, ambitious, clean cut in his char- acter haracter and habits, he had come from a Little country village two months pre- view, full of enthusiasm and hope. As he reviewed the sixty days in question just now, he was forced to confess that they had brought neither comfort nal' encouragement. At his native town his exceptional good na- ture and accommodating ways had made him a favorite' with everybody. The result was that he was popular, and, as a clerk, a success -but that was among people unspoiled by the rueh and pitiless selfishness of the great city. "Wish I'd stayed at home now," he soliloquized, as he walked thought- fully down the street. "Two weeks' work out of two months won't do at all. I bate to go back and confess myself beaten, though-" It was the unfriendly ways of city folks that hit John the hardest- When. he first arrived he kept on his old, cheery smile. He recalled where he bad picked up an umbrella for a lady, smiled back at her indifferent "Thank you," and had received an ley stare for the "familiarity," as she deemed it, not being brought up in td souls. t °n e • atmosphere sore of nn ax the p Then, again, there was the man who nearly hired him. An owl -faced, dis- mal -spirited tyrant, he had int down promptly on what he considered the freshness" of a hired clerk, when John smiled his joy at the prospect of steady work. Every succeeding day John had felt More and more friendless. People were suspicious if he got confidential, and edged away from him If he acted pleasant. He, found the city world a hard, practical treadmill. One morning, his worst morning yet, for he had lived up what he had earned three weeks previous, John teas 'passing a large establishment given over to the manufacture of an improved carpet sweeper.

IIer eyes seemed to follow John as he kept looking back. So pleasing was the impression, that morning after morning he would go out of his way to come under the cheery, encouraging influence of that fascinating face. "Well, I guess I'll have a smile at that girl of mine this morning, just to see if it won't bring me some luck," joked John, "Hello!" FIs said this coming to a dead stop as he reached the store where the picture hung. It was not in its ac- customed place -nut another face was, a far prettier one, a face of real flesh and blood. A girl, neat and bright as a new geld coin, had swung aside the paste• board sign, and was bent close to the great plate glass window pasting a written sign upon it. She chanced to look up. She must have been both knd-hearted and a reader of human nature. The startled yet wistful ex- pression of the face of John amused, interested her. She smiled at him in a pleasant, friendly way. It was like a benison to his thirsty, longing soul. Then the girl disappeared, and then almost mechanically John read the sign: "Solicitors wanted -liberal commission." "I never peddled anything," said John to himself. "Not because I wouldn't, but because I fancied I couldn't. Perhaps--" A sudden resolution bracedhi m up. 0 He entered the place.

She has charge of the solicitors." John removed his hat and entered the little office, to face the young lady he had seen putting up the sign. Again she smiled, again John felt his heart warm up. "I saw the sign," he said, a trifle awkwardly, swinging bis hand towards it. "I know you did," replied the young lady. "You"are a prompt caller." "I have to be, you eee," smiled back John, "seeing that I have no work, Tell you, miss, I don't know whether I will do or not, but I'm desperately ready to try." "And not get discouraged, ;if at first you don't succeed?" chatlenged Miss Dennison playfully. "Keep on smiling under all circumstances?" "I always do that," declared John. Miss Dennison became all business at once. She explained their system of canvassing in detail. John listened attentively, then thoughtfully. Then he said: - "You couldn't, let me have one of those smiling pictures with the eam- ple could you? 1 have an idea, you see." That's good. Originality pays," responded the girl. "You shall have one,- certainly." John Bartley's idea was based on a system of smiles. HIe took his eam- ple.and the pasteboard advertisement under his arm and left the store, the memory of the encouraging treatment of Miss Dennison buoying him up considerably. He struck out for the suburbs. There seemed to be a different class of people among the trees and the flowers and the lawns. At the first house at which John stopped its mis- tress was seated on the porch. John began diffident, he wound up eloquent. First he showed the pic- ture, He declared that smiles meant health, wealth and happiness. He claimed that any one using his carpet sweeper could not help but become satisfied, well nigh gay over the eta nomic, sanitary and labor-saving. features it represented. He sold one sweeper. The purchaser gave him the address of a sister. The sister sent him to a neighbor, the latter to a cousin, the cousin to a friend. BY nightfall eight sweepers were sold - all on smiles. "Fifty cents commis- sion on each; four dollars, Hurrah! John was all smiles as dusty, warm, but luxuriously tired, be persuaded his landlady that an Saturday night he could pay up. Every morning John reported to MIss Dennison, ev6ry morning that encouraging smile of hers armed him for a day of striving and victory. He learned that her name was Ma- bel. He discovered that she lived with an invalid mother. With his first new suit of clothes, proudly earned, he was prouder still to be invited to call at her home. At the end ofsix months John was err charge of the solicitors and had money. saved at bank. A year later he heard of a pretty suburban cot- tage at a bargain, and wondered to.

(Copyright, 1912, by W. G. Chapman.) NEATLY CAUGHT IN TRAP Wealthy Man for Once Called on to Provo That He Loved Art for Art's Sake. Peter De Wint, the English Iand- seepo painter, was accustomed each year to have a semi -private show of his pictures before sending them to the Water Color Society's exhibition. On such occasions his friends fre- quently bought pictures, which, of 'course, appeared at the public exhi- bition marked "Sold." Among the painter's friends was a wealthy man who wanted to appear a patron of art and at the same time. keep his money. He managed this by :loudly admiring the paintings already sold. He was always a bit too late to 'buy the pictures that pleased him most, and • having seen them, as he was wont to declare, he could never 'content himself with less beautiful vrorks. 1 De Wint at last suspected the man's sincerity and when the next show -day !came round, he concluded to test him. 1 After plentyof time had been allowed for De Wiirt's friends to make their [purchases, the rich man arrived. As iusual, his eye soon fell on two "per- ifect gems" marked "Sold-" Turning to the artist, he said, :'Now, De Wint, those are exactly the things I should like to possess; what a pity they am not to be had." ' "ISy dear sir,' said the painter, slap - t ping him on the back, "I knew ,you :would like them, so I put the tickets Ion to keep them for you."

THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES'.. 1 -ext of the Lesson, 1 Kings x, Memory Verses, 8, 9 -Golden Toro, Prov. viii, 11 -Commentary Prepareai`, by Rev. D. M. Stearns. We saw in a previous lesson that `~Solomon's wisdom excelled all the wis- dom of the east and of l}lgypt and that people came tom all the earth to hear his wisdom (1 Kings i v, 20, 30, 34; Chron, ix, 23). Rio writings are men- tioned in I Kings iv, 32, 00, The Song of Solomon was probably written ire. the joy of his first love to the Lord ire his younger days when be first became - king, Proverbs reads like his more mature experience, while Ece1esiastest. is the sad retrospect of his great fe1lO, and sin after' he had turned away; from the Lord, for his wives turned away his heart after other gods, anal . his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God (I Rings xi, 4, 6). Although he was beloved of his God and among many nations there was no king like Will, nevertheless even him did strange. women cause to sin (Nei. xiii, 20). Aft- er the dedication of the temple the. Lord appeared to him the second time and assured him that His eyes and His.. heart would be perpetually upon that house because Ills name was there (1 Kings ix, 1-14). What n precious as- surance for all the redeemed to ap- propriate, for what was true of a building is surely true of those where are temples of the Holy Spirit Tier and his people were warned, however, that it they forsook the Lord Ile wonlhil make them a proverb and a byword among all people (I Kings ix, 0, 7). So we are warned that if the salt loses ata savor itis good for nothing but to be trampled under foot of man. The rea- son of today, with the parallel record in Il Chiron. ix, shows how it might have been if Solomon had continue[& faithful and how It will be when a_ greaterthan Solomon sball sit on Da- vid's throne and the glory of the Loa upon Israel shalt draw all nations - They shall come from Sheba, bringing; gold and incense, and shall strew fortis: the praises of the Lord, and the wealtb of the nations shall be brought to Is- rael whoa the Mighty One of Jacob that! be their Lord and Saviour ilea. lx 1-3, (3, 11, 16). Then peen of Sheba beard of them fame of Solomon concerning the name of the Lord; therefore some one most have told. We know of a greater than Solomon and of a greater glob than Inc ever had, which our Lord and Saviour wants to share with all who are willing to receive flim and follow Him, but so few think it worth while to tell these good news that two-thirds of the people ou the earth never heart yet. When the queen heard she came to see for herself if the report Was true She (:area with a great r'etinaer and with camels, bearing spices atria gold and precious stones. Suet) are abundance of spices never came to Jerusalem• before, and She gave to Sole omou 120 talents 02 gold, which, at $25,000 a talent, would be about 1$3,•- 000,000. See verses 2 and 10. According to verse 14, Solomon was in the habit of receiving 000 talents of gold yearly. That would be over. 313,1)00,000 in gold alone, So we eo not wonder that silver was as stones.. and nothing accounted of (verses 22, 27). The queen had many hard ques- tions to ask Solomon, but he told ter all. There, was nothing hid from hints that he could not tell her. And witex5 she heard his wisdom and saw tds buildings and his home and his serv- ants ereants there was no more spirit in here. mid she bad to acknowledge that, while before she came she did not be- lieve all that she heard, now she had to confess that his wisdom and pros - r pe•it exceeded all that she had heard y e and the half had not been told her - (verses 4-7). It reminds us of Ise. ixdv, 4; I Cor. if, 9, where we read thek the things which God hath prepared: for His redeemed exceed all. The Spirit ins indeed told us soma - what, but we are slow to receive It, and we are not like the apostles, wilo> said, "We cannot but speak the thiugo- whlch we have seen and beard (Lett tv, 20).
