The trenches, in short, have become the 1 cross of Twentieth Century Christian., •ity, and the stupidity and selfishness, the blindness and s-elf--righteousnessy which for long hid this from the eye' of thousands not engaged in the bat tie, is yielding to an almost awed consciousness of the truth' to whic their eyes were hoiden. the whole civilized wort For years had been racing along the broad road to the music of the tabors of pleasur and the shrill squeal of the pipes o envy anal hate. The worship of bloo had given place -to the worship o mammon, the motto "noblesse o rlige to the motto "put money in •th purse." 4. Never did the world seem , to those who had, a more delightfu(i place to. live in than •in the.summe of 1914, or a world better worth strive ing fora place in, to those who ha not. And yet, all the time, the le in the great carnival, whose confetfl was, being showered from New Yor to St. Petersburg, and from Stoc holm to Rome, was beginning t stack, and there were spectres to be -seen as gauntas any who ever herded in the faubourgs in '93, or lurked in the deep woods round the chateaux. The awakening, however, was not destined to come that" way. It came through the ambition of ambition, • through the arrogance of arrogance. In: a sentence, through the desire Of ' unbridled human will to draw into lits maw the power, the wealth, an the dominion of the world, the worl was delivered up to war, and to w r waged with a fierceness, a horror, an a remorselessness, which had bee unknown since the days of Attila and Alaric. . , Then it was that, in the midst of its desolationand its shame, the e came to the world, the revelation c f the- trenches, and that humanity h gan to realize the fact of the ind struetibility of good. Evil comes and evil goes, with all the foam and fitfu - ness of the tide of passion, but goo stands like the great rocks again. t which the waves of evil crash, only , to be scattered and powdered into `\spray. • In July, 1914, what is called. Society was drifting in an aimless, pleasure -logged way; along Piccadilly or the Boulevard des Capucines, in i s pleasure barge. Youth in the pro and folly at th.e helm, it was shou - ing, like the Israelites of old. "L t .us eat and. drink, for to -morrow e may die!" but, all the same, witho t any expectation of death. And 11 that time the Socialist clubs and t e Labor Unions were -meeting, and d nouncing,the crew of the barge; a d planning:plans for wrecking it. Th n, suddenly the skies split, and the war - clouds thundered amidt the light- ning. And, marvel of Jinaryels, the pleasure seekers climbed out of their barges, and the Socialists and La or Unions closed their meetings, and .1 marched together, shoulder to shou d- er, into the trenches to defend Pr n- eiple. That night Mephistopheles must have sat puzzled, angry and alarmed. Nothing had gone the way he h= d calculated; and, as he- watched t e transformation in the trenches, e must,iliave realized that the game w s lost, ,t-4We went into the trenches " said a British offifficer, not long age, "Christians by education, infidels in - practice, And this is what t trenches have done for us—to-da'y, we know that there is a God." What the pulpit .was powerless to teach, the trenches have • taught. Self -denies self-sacrifice, self-renunciation in th trenches have taught men what Lev meant on Calvary.

FOR THE DAY'S WORK Depends Upon Good Red Blood to Nourish the Body -- Weak People Need a Tonic: The tonic treatment through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for run, down condition of the health is based on sound medical principles and on common sense. More and more men and women are realizing that pure,' red blood means" health, and that efficiency in the workshop, th'bffice, the home or in any of the varied walks of life depends entirety upon the quality 'of the blood. There are, however, thousands of people who do- not realize the truth of these statements. They - are without ambi- tion or strength to do ` their day's work; are. always tired out; have but little appetite and a poor diges- tion; cannot get a refrshing night's sleep and are subject to headaches, backaches and nervousness, because their blood is weak,'watery and tin - pure. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills give.quiek relief and 'permanetly cure such Hien and women, because of their di- rect action on the blood, which they puriify and build up to its normal strength. As through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills the blood becomes, rich. and red, it strengthens the 'muscles, tones up the nerves, makes the stomach capable of digest- ing -the food and repairs the waste caused by growth or work. The need in every family of a safe and effective tonic such as' Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, is shown by the following statements of Mrs. Julius Tuck, Mull, Ontario, who says:—"Before I began the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills I was in a most wretched and run down condition. ' My blood was thin and watery and my nerves were in such a condition that the least noise would mage me start and tremble, and what a burden my housework seem- ed. One of my neighbors advised me to take Dr. Williams Pink Pills and I ,have great reason to be glad that I followed her advice, for before I had used a half dozen. boxes all symptoms of my trouble had disap- peared, and I was as well as ever I had been in my life. I have also given the pills to my daugters with the most beneficial results, and - I shall ever have a gbod word to say for them." If you are feeling the least run down, weak or depressed do not de- lay—take these pills, at • once and note how speedily your old-time health will return» You can get the pills from any dealer in medicine or by mail 'at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Wil- bairns'. ilBairns.
