various parts of the kingdorra me was
eonstantly: engaged in the religious inter-
ests of the netion, ,One 'pi "hie important
labors being to care for the different
echoels of the prophets. On his journey;3
he .frequently passed through Shunetu,

growing plain of Esdraelon, within sight
of Mount Carmel, seven miles from Naz-
areth of 'New Testament . times The
hospitable and wealthy family mentioned
• in vs. 8, 9, made comfortable provisions
for the entertainment of the prophet,
fiting up a room with a bed, a set, a
table and a light, all that warn essential
to his comfort. Whenever he saw fit to
occupy the room it was at his disposal.
,So -relit was Elisha"s .appreciation of
the kindness Shown him that are offered
to ask a favor for the family from the
king•or.the•head of the array, but the
woman of Siiunc.ip was contented and de-
sired that no request be made. Upon
asking his .servant, Gehazi, what ruu[d
be done in return for all the favors
shown by the family, the suggestion was
Made that the family was childless,
which was considered by: Orientals to
be a grave misfortune. The prophet
therefore predicted that.
in a year a on
would bless their home, and the pro-
phecy was fulfilled.
II. Sorrow in the Home (vs, )8.24).
.When the child was perhaps six or seven
years old he found his way to the har-
vest field, where his' father and his men
were at work. and was suddenly taken
sick, suffering no doubt from sunr,ti•oke,
for Thomson says, `'I know by experience
that this country glows like a furnace in
harvest time." Being taken to his
mother by a servant,' -he was field in ber
lap until he died. This child of proniice,
who had been the joy and light of the
home since his birth, was dead, and the
affliction seemed mysterious. As if there
might be virtue. in. the prophet's room
to restore life, the anxious ;nether plac-
ed her dead chisel upon the bed there.
Without telling her husband of the
hoe's death, she hastened toward Mount.
Carmel, where she hoped to find Eliehla
and a:rquaint.him with the calamity
which had befallen her home. Mounting
the beast of burden she gave direction
to the servant. who walked or ran be-
hind the animal as the driver, not to
slacken his speed except at her com-
mand, as if she believed that the reetor-
atton of the child's life depended upon
her presentation of her afflie.tion to the
prophet at the earliest possible mo-
ment.

Because your ease is a difficult one,
doctors having done you no good, do
not continue to staffer without giving
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound a trial. It surely has cured
many cases of female ills, such as in-
flammation, ulceration, disp)acemente,
fibroid tumors, irregularities, periodic
pains, backache, that bearing -down
feeling, indigestion, dizziness, and
nervous prostration. It costs but a
trifle to try it, and the result is worth
millions to many suffering women.

did a woman of Shunem do for the com-
fort of Elisha and his servant'( How
was she rewarded for her kindness?
'What did the woman do when she came
to Elitiha. What did- Elisha, tell Geha.zi•
to do? Why was this? Why did the
woman refuse to leave Elisha? What did
Elisha. do when he reached the dead
child? Why did he stretch himself upon
the child? What were the signs of re-
turning life? By what power was the
child's'life restored?

Tells What Zam-Buk Did Far Hint
Many famous persons have testified
to the )meat value of Zam-Buk, and
amongst the most recent is 4dmiral
Rodney M. Lloyd. Writing from the
Royal Navy Club, Portsmouth, Eng-
land, Admiral' Lloyd says:
"I have found Zam-Buk most reliable
for stealing tarts and abrasions; while
for the relief of skin irritation it is
invaluable."
Another famous user of Zam-Bulc is
Mr. ]:rank Scudam•ore. the War Corres-
pondent, who supplied Canadian news-
papers with their dispatches during the
Boer War. 11r. Scudamore says: "Some
poisorions dye on my underclothing came
in contact with a small ulcer on my leg
and blood poisoning set in. Inflamma-
tion, pain and swelling followed. My
medical man's treatment did not seers
to do any good, as ulcer after ulcer
broke out, until my left leg from knee
to foot was one mass of cores. 1 had
seventeen deep ulcers at one time. 1
could not put my foot to the ground,
and was really in a pitiful state. A
friend advised lam-I3uk, and 1 applied
theis herbal balm. It was really won-
derful how it soothed the pain and ach-
ing and gave me ease.
"I continued with it, leaving off all
other treatment, and at the end of a
week's treatment my leg wa.s not like
the same. A few boxes of Zam-Buk
healed all the sores, and bit by bit new,
healthy skin covered the places 'which
had been, so deeply pitted arid, scarred
by ulceration and blood poison. The limb
is now perfectly healthy, and with no
marks of the old ulcers. For this splen-
did result I have only Zany -Birk: to
thank."
Zam-Buk is a cure for piles, eczema,
eold cracks or chaps, ulcers, ringworm,
poison, cuts, abseeases, burns, children's
rashes, abrasions, and for all skin in-
juries and disease: All druggists and
