The Clinton New Era, 1913-04-10, Page 7EV ERYTHINO For Years, RestoredTo Health by Lydia E.Pinkham's Veg- etable Compound. Canadian women are continually writ- ing us such letters as the two following, which are heartfelt expressions of grati- tude for restored health: Glanford Station, Ont.' -"I have ta- ken LydiaE, Pinkham's Vegetable etable Com- � ;pound a n d never found any medicine to compare with it. I had ulcers and fall- ing of; womb and doctors did me no good. I suffered dreadfully for years until I began taking your medicine. I al- so recommend it for nervousness and in- digestion. " - Mrs. HENRY CLARK, Glanford • Station. Ont. Chesterville, Ont. - "I heard your medicines highly praised, and ayear ago I began taking them for falling of womb and ovarian trouble. "My left side pained me all the time and just before my periods which were irregular and painful it would be worse. To sit down caused me pain and suffer- ing and I would be so nervous some- times that I could not bear to see any one or hear any one speak. Little specks would float before my eyes and I was always constipated. L cannot say too much for Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills, for there are no medicines like them. I have taken them and I recommend them to all women. You may publish this testimonial." -Mrs. SIE- PHEN J. MARTIN, Chesterville, Ontario, Canada. Pineapple Tops Will Sprout, Those who are always looking for something out of the ordinary plants for home decortation, find a very interesting .plant grown from the discarded . top of the ordinary pineapple. After the is cut from the fruit, it should be placed in a jar of water with the leaves above the surface, and in a few days fine roots will appear, and in a short time a mass of root growth will have former, and the foliage will then grow rapidly, forming a graceful plant tht resembles some of the palms. Itis one of those ,odd things peo- ple like • to watch and study care- fully as itis developing. Young students in botany will find in this experiment is something well worth the time required to care for it. Alittle moss and pebbles might be placed in the jar after the roots form, but itis best to• start the roots in clear water. The water can be , renewed as evaporation • takes place, but entirely fresh water is not essential, although it does not harm the plant hilts growth.

"Well," and the porter rubbed his 'eyes' with the back of his hand as he 'chuckled, "well, they's a mighty lov In' couple out theah in the corridor." "That's tbeatt-theyit!" Instantly everything was alive and fu action. It was as if a bugle had 'shrilled in a dejecta camp. "Get ready!" • Shaw commanded. ,"Here's rice for everybody." "Everybody take an old shoe," said ;Hudson, "You can't mise in this nar- irow car." "There's a kazoo for everyone, too," said•Shaw, as the outstretched hands ;were equipped with wedding ammuni- tton. "Do you know the 'Wedding 'March'?" 9 ought to by this time;" said Mrs.-. Whitcomb. Right into the tangle of prepara- tion, old Ira Lathrop stalked, on his way back to his seat to get more cigars. "Have some rice for the bridal couple? said Ashton, offering him of ,his own -double-handful. But Lathrop brushed him aside with a romance -hater's growl. "Watch out for your head, then," cried Iiudson, and Lathrop ducked just too late to escape a neck -filling, hair -filling shower. An old shoe took him a clip abaft the ear, and the old woman -hater dropped raging into the same berth where the spinster, Anne Gattle, was trying to dodge the same downpour, Still there was enough of the shrapnel left to overwhelm the two young "friends," who marched into the aisle, trying to look indifferent and prepared for nothing on earth Ness than for a wedding charivari. Mallory should have done better. than to entrust his plans to fellows 'like Hudson and Shaw, whom he had, known at West Point for diabolically ,joyous hazers and practical jokers. Even as he sputtered rice and winced from the impact of flying footgear,. he was cursing himself as a double - dyed idiot for asking such men to, en- gage his berth for him. Ile had a 'sudden instinct that they had doubt- less bedecked. his trunk and Mar- jorie's with white satin furbelows and ludicrous labels. But he could not shelter himself from the white sleet and the black thumps. He could hardly shelter Marjorie, wino cowered behind him and shrieked even loud- er thanthe romping tormentors. When the assailants had exhausted the rice and shoes, they charged down the aisle for the privilege of kissing the bride. Mallory was dragged and bunted and shunted here and there, and he had to fight his way back to Marjorie with might and main. He was tugging and striking like a demon, and yelling, "Stop it! stop it!" Hudson took , his punishment with uproarious good nature, laughing: "011, shut up, or we'll kiss you!" But Shaw was scrubbing his wry lips with a seasick wail 01: "Wow! I think I kissed the dog." There was, of necessity, some pause for breath, and the combatants draped themselves limply about the seats. Mallory glared at the twin Benedict Arnolds and demanded: "Are you two thugs going to San Francisco with me?" "Don't worry," smiled Hudson, "we're only going as far as Kedzie avenue, just to start the honeymoon properly." If either of the elopers had been calmer, the solution of the problem would have been simple. Marjorie could get off at this suburban station and drive home from there. But their wits were like pied type, and they were further jumbled, when Shaw broke in with a sudden: "Come, see the little dove -cote we fixed for you." Before they knew It, they were both t ha.e d along the aisle to the w o g a bite 1 w satin atroclt eve in' a bungalow,- said un ao a y L g said Hudson: "Sit down -make your- selves perfectly at home," "No -never -oh, oh, oh!" cried Mar- jorie, darting away and throwing it empty se herself into the first e p Y at-ira Lathrop's berth. Mallory followed to console her with caresses and mur- murs of, "There's there, don't cry, deaths!" Hudson and Shaw followed close with mawkish mockery: "Don't cry, dearie." And now Mrs, Temple intervened. She had enjoyed the initiation cere- mony as well as anyone, But when the little bride began to cry, she re- membered the emembered'the pitiful terror and shy shame she had undergone as a girl wife, and she hastened to Marjorie's side, brushing the men away like gnats. "You poor thing," : she comtorted. '"Goole, any child, lean on one, and have a good cry." Hudson grinned, and put out his own arms: "She can lean on me, if she'd rather." I Mrs. Temple glanced up with indig- nant, rebuke: "Her mother is far away, and she wants a mother's breast to weep on. Here's mine, my dear."

"I was a sufferer from Fearful Head- aches for over two years, Sometimes, they were so bad that I was unable to work for days at a time. I took all kinds of }medicine, was treated by phy- sicians, but yet the Headaches persisted. A short time ago, I was advised tq try "Fruit-a-tives and I did so, with Invest confess, very little faith. But after I. had taken them for three days, my Headaches were easier and in a week' they left me. After i had taken a box of these tablets, my headaches were quite cured.

Tnrtirlated at this bride -baiting, Mal- lory rose and confronted the two imps with clenched fists: "You're a pretty pair of friends, you are!" The imperturable Shaw put out a Pair of tickets as his only defense: "Here are your tickets, old boy." And Hudson roared jovially: "We tried to get you a stateroom, but It was gone." "And here are your baggage checks," laughed Shaw, forcing into hie fists a few pasteboards. "We got your trunks on the train ahead, all right. Don't mention it -you're entirely welcome." It was the porter that brought the first relief from the ordeal. "If you gemmen Is gettin' off at gedzie, `avenue,, you'd better step smart. We're slowin' up now." Marjorie was sobbing too audibly to hear, and Mallory swearing too in- audibly to heed the opportunity Ked- zie avenue offered. And Hudson was yelling: "Well, gooa-bye, old boy and olds girl. Sorry we can't go all the way." He had the effrontery to try to kiss the bride good-bye, and Shaw was equally bold, but Mallory's fury enabled him to beat them oft. He elbowed and shouldered them down the aisle, and sent after them one of his own shoes. But it just missed Shaw's flying coattails, Mallory stood glaring after the de- parting traitors. Ile was glad that they at least were gone, till he real- ized with a sickening slump in his vitals, that they. had not taken with them his awful dilemma. And now the train was once more clickety- clicking into the night and the west. CHAPTER X. Excess Baggage. Never was a young soldier so stumped by a problem in tactics as 'Lieutenant Harry Mallory, safely aboard his train, and not daring to leave it, yet hopelessly unaware of his s f h was�to dispose o lovely how he D but unlabelled baggage. Hudson and Shaw .had erected a •white satin temple to Hymen in berth :number one, had created such commo- tion, and departed in such confusion, that therehad been no opportunity to proclaim that he and Marjorie were "not married -just friends." And now the passengers had ac- cepted them as that enormous fund of amusement to any train, a newly wed- ded pair. To explain the mistake would have been difficult, even among friends. But among strangers -well, perhaps a wiser and a colder bran than Harry 'Mallory's could have stood there and delivered a brief ora- tion restoring truth to her pedestal. But Mallory was in no condition for such a stoic delivery. He mopped his brow in agony, lost in a blizzard of .bewilderment. He drifted back toward Marjorie, half to. protect and half for companionship. He found Mrs. Temple cuddling her close and motheringher as if she were a baby instead of a bride. "Did the poor child run away and. get married?" Ma1orie'r f n ra t:c "Bo o-hoo-hos" g' might have meant anything.thing. Mrs. Temple took it for assent, and mur- mured with glowing reminiscence: "Just the way Doctor Temple and 1 She could not see the leaping Sash tot wild hope that lighted up Mallory's face, She only heard his voice across her shoulder^ "Doctor? Doctor Temple? Is your husband a reverend doctor?" "A reverend doctor?" the little old lady repeated weakly. "Yes -a -a preacher?" ' The poor old congregation -weary soul was abruptly confronted with the ruination of all the delight in her lit, 'tle escapade with her pulpit -fagged husband. If she had ever dreamed that the girl who wagweeping in her arms was weeping from any other fright than the usual fright of young brides, fresh from the preacher's ben- ediction, she would have cast every other consideration aside, and told the truth. But her husband's last behest be- fore he left her had been to keep their precious pretend -secret. She felt -just then -that a -woman's first ;duty is to obey her husband. Besides what business was it pf this young 'husband's what her old husband's, 'business was? Before she had fairly 'begun to debate her duty, almost auto. matically, with the instantaneous in- stinct of self-protection, her lips had 'uttered the denial: "Oh -he's -just a -plain doctor. There he is now." Mallory cast one miserable glance d v'n the aisle at Dr. Temple coming !back from the smoking room. As the (Continued next Week. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES, Text of the 'Lesson, Gen. xxviii, 10-22. Memory Verses, 20 -22 -Golden Text, Gen. xxviii, 16 -Commentary Pre- pared by Rev. la. M..Stearns, 'Isaac, having iudursed the going away of Jacob, blessed him again, and this time truly, and sent him away to WI mother's people that Ise might find a wife among g the daughters of Labau, bis rnother's brother. So Jacob went out from Beersheba, where Isaac seems to have continued to live since the record in chapter xxvi, 32, 83, and went toward Haran, • Plarau was the name of Lot's father, and he died' in Ur before Abram was called out, It was also the name of the place where Abram tarried until Terah, his father, died (chap- ter xi, 27-82). • It was from thence Re- bekah came to be the wife of Isaac It would have been a long journey for Jacob from Beersbeba'to Bethel in one day (between forty and fifty miles>, so it was perhaps his second night out on which he had this remarkable ex- perience. That:matters not, however. It was the dream or vision that count- ed rather than the time when. That one who had acted as ,Jacob had should have such a revelation from the Lord is the wonderful part of the transaction. There are, how- ever, two very prominent facts in all the Scriptures -which continually at- tract our attention; One is the ex- ceeding sinfulness of man, with his deceitful and desperately wicked heart, and the other is the exceeding riches of the grace and love of God. It does not matter as to the kind of ladder, whether steps of stone or some other kind. But the great fact is that Jacob saw a way of access from earth to heaven, angels ascending andde- scending, and he heard Jehovah front the top of the ladder talking to him most graciously and in such words as uo mortal could expect or by any means deserve. Because of Jacob's unworthiness and the wondrous grace of God notwith- standing even 1 have ventured to ap- propriate and have proved in world- wide journeyings the comfort uf. verse 15. The Lord, who stood above the lad- der and spoke the words of love and grace, no doubt referred to that night and that event when he said to Na - theme!, ''Verily, verily, 1 say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see beavea open and the angels of God ascending and descending npou the Son of Man" (John 1, 51). Some day when the New Jerusalem shall have taken its place over the earth and the elect church glorified and the elect Israel all right- eous and the holy angels shall all he in perfect accord with the Lord in ad- ministering the affairs of the kingdom we may think of and understand this vision more fully. Meantime let us think of Hjm who is "the way, the truth, the life," who become man for us. The ladder was set tip on the earth. It starts fleas just where. you are. You may step on it if you will. but it must be with both feet clean off the earth, actually in Christ. It reaches heaven; it is not too short, To mount day by day we must look tip steadfastly and see Him who is in beaven for us. Run with patience, looking unto Jesus. The angels will be always ministering (Ueb. xii, 1, 2; 1, 14). Notice the four ."beholds" of verses 12, 13, 15. Between the time of Jacob's leaving home and this night's experlence it looks as if the Spirit had been working some true penitence in Jacob's heart, and this special revelation and message was the result of it. When we turn home- ward the Father always runs to meet us, according to Luke xv, 20. Such overwhelming grace made Ja- cob feel somewhat as Simon Peter did when the Lord filled the seeps with fishes and Peter seid, "Depart from me, for 1' am a sinful man, 0 Lord!" (Luke v, 8.) We do well. to remem- ber that the Lord is ever with us and that every place with Him may be lo us the house of God and the gate of heal'eu. Tile pillow becoming an anointed pillar ane the fact that believers are called stones (1 l'et. ii, 5) suggest that instead of being prone upoiu the earth w„ may become t I night anointed liv- ing stones to the glory of God. Jacob's vow in verses 20 to 22 may be good or not so good. If he is bar- gaining with God affer all the gra- cious racious assurances, as our authorized ver. Sion would seem to indicate, then his language and his spirit were poor in. deed. But if he said, "Since, on seeing that, Cod will be with ine"' (verse -201, his words are better.
