"I had for a long time been thinking Of trying the
Tasteless Samaria Pre, cription treatment ort my
timbal -el for his drinkin habits, bat I was afraid he
would discover that I was giving hien medicine, and
the thought tumerved me. I hesitated for iaearly a
week, but one day when he came home very much
intoxicatedand his wee - s salary nearly all spent. I
threw °Hall faux and de ermined to make an effort
to save ourhome from ti e ruin I saw coming, at all
haeards. I sent for y lir Tasteless Samaria Pre-
scription, and put It In his coffee as directed
next morning and wa ched and, prayed for the
result. At noon I gave dm. more and also at simper.
Renewer suspected a th ng, and I then boldly kept
tight on giving it reg tarty, as I had discovered
sonaething that set ever nerve in my body tingling
with hope and happine -, and I could see a bright
future spread out before mc --a ' peaceful, happy
home, a share in the go things otlife, =attentive
loving husband, comfort and everything else dem
to a woman's heart ; f my husband had told me
that whiskey was vile stuff and he was taking a
dis-
like bolt. It was only t o true, for before I had givee
him the full course he had stopped drinking alto

gone, and then sent for neither ler, to have on haat

The insPired 1)s4mist, censiciering
the passing of en eartlily lr e, lies a
beautiful simile. 154oses, to -
psalm is ascribed, i Was :notoily a
great legislator and a p werfule lead-
er, but a poet. IIe not only opened
a path across the; Red Sea with his
rod, but he cut a- kire path into the
gratitude !and an:le-lieti of, alll i good
men and women bY the sharppoint
of his pen. Thus an aneient aiithor,
who was a pioneer in the Making of
books, compared the , earthy ex-
istence of every human life -to le tale
that is told." The seconds are the
letters. The minutes aeel the words.
The hours are the seateeces. e The
days are ehe paragraphs., Thelweeks
are the pages. The moiaths are the
chapters. , The years are I the hooks.
May God help me on tine last Sab-
bath of the dying ' year So interpret
aright how "we spend Our yea* as a
tale that is told." I I ! II
Every tale, whether I fietitions or
no, has a bright or a sect beginning.
In almost the first words!! whicji the
narrator speaks he introduces his
listeners to the hero or ,t; he heroine.
Sometimes he rocks the hero's cradle
down among the plantations of
Loideiana or Georgia, sometimes
among the snows of the New i ,Eng-
land hills or in a palace :of Europe,
where the prince! or princess I, was
born. But, though many heroes and
heroines of fictitions tales xuay :have
bad unhappy childhood influences, I
clo not believe it Was thus- with us.
The brightest passages , of the "tale
of life'' wile* applied to our own
most part in thbse first days which
t
biographies are to be fatted for the
we spent in the Old ho tead. -
