Twenty Years
of Itching Piles
Mr. Alex. McLaughlin, thirty years
resident of Powmanville, Ont., writes :—
"For twenty long years I suffered from
itching pilaf), end only persons who have
been troubled with that annoyingdisease
can imagine what I endured during that
time. About seven years ago I asked a
druggist if he had anything to cure me.
He said that Dr. Chase's; Ointment was
most favorably spoken of, and on his
recommendation I took a box.
After three applications I felt better,
and by the time I had used one box I was
on a fair way to recovery. I continued the '
treatment until thoroughly cured, and as
that was seven years ago, and I have not
suffered any since, I am firmly convinced
that the ointment made a per ect cure,
"1 consider Dr Chase's Ointment an
invaluable treatment for piles. In my
case I think the owe was remarkable when
you consider that 1 am getting up in years
and had been so long a sufferer from this
disease." 6o centa box at all dealers, or

Chicago, Jan, 18, — Many people
who are passing through (a period of
trouble may obtain consolation and
encouragement front the dectrine
Rev.. F. De Witt Talmage teaches in
the following sermon on the text
Matthewxiv, 22, "Jesus constrain-
ed his disciples to get into, a ship,"
There it Is! See! Yonder is the
disciples' boat, tossed about on the
waves of Lake Galileo, Every Mo-
nica the disciples expected their
boat' to founder. Some of them
were veteran fishernaen, yet they had
given up all hope of ever reaching
land again,
The danger of drowning in Lake
Galilee was not the only danger, nor
indeed the greatest danger, which
• threatened the disciples. They were
in spiritual danger.. Having seen
Jesus only a few hours before feed a
multitude of 5,000 persons with' five
loaves .and a.few fishes, they had
lost sight of his spiritual Mission
and were about to hail him as a
• temporal leader. Like the multitudes
which- had been fed, they began to
• whisper among themselves: "Why not.
make Christ our king? Such a mir-
acle working. leader as this could nt
e
only feed us and clothe as without
any work upon our part, :but he bleo
could liberate us from Roman tyran-: •
ny and be to us another -Moses, an-
other Joshua �r another David." In
order to counteract this design of
making him merely a temporal king,
which would have brought Min into
collision With the Roman' power and
have degraded his• mission into a
mere insurrection, he . determined to
teach • the disciples their weakness
.and helplessness. He compelled them
to launch their boat and enter into
a fearful cointrat of at least ton long
hours with the Galilean tempest. S9

was not until Rome had .been .bornea
by the bloody Nero; :Who • latighed
and fiddled. Whilethe conflagration
raged; ;net until. the Christians had
suffered:under the -fale-charge of •be-
ing'the incendiaries that • the thuren
was purified. and telly' launched on
its great evangelistic Work. Itwas
when Martin Luther had to face , the
diet Of Wornis and had been impris-
oned ' for months ' in the Wartburg
• that the 'reformation was' started:
Arid ie no time of • church history
can you 'find thata great religious
awakening has occurred or a great
religious; leader has come forth with-
. out the previous roar of the Galilean
tempest, as it yawned to destroy, the
.ciiiirch and. engulf Christian. faith.
Some time ago I heard a' - greet
'minister 'of our coiinti'y developing
this thonght. In part, he Said: "The
reason WQ do not have:. Savonaredas •
and. John Knoxes and John • Husses
in. -the present day• is because we do
not bavo .the :ancient opersecutions
which nitrified and ennobled the an-
cient catirch." • Sonic people are
foolish enough to suppose that the
• best and greatest day of the, early
Christian church was when the • Em-
peror Constantihe joined • the 'church
with the state and had thousands
upon thousands 61 his subjects'bap-
tized by the.: priests 'in :the • different
rivers. Bet I want to tell you that
when Constantino joined •the church
with the state it. was a sad day for
the history of the Christian chtirdh.
With the regal ,power of the church,
•it became a corrupt' cherch. With the
regal: Power of, the church there came
the sips Of a licentious . and niercen-
any minded church. Then came .the
sins of :the dark ages.' It is by per-
secution that the Christian church IO
purified, . not, by commendation of
sinful kings and fawning nobles. The
chuechby its past history ought to
know that God's loving and saving
voice can be heard in the growling
thunder as well as in the, whispering
stuniner Wind. -Me divine love can

rending tears as well as in the smile
of an April shoWer or in the pale
glow Of a June ;sultrier). •
What tempestuous struggles have
accomplished for the. church as

you not feel that you were being i
struck by tt, Galilean teMpeSt, as
were the diseiples of old? Do you
not feel that through the dark shad-
ow of the death angel's wing you
have been able to see the spiritual
face of Jesus °Mist as never before?
It was trouble that did it—tempest-
uus trouble alone whith made you
use the hillock of a grave for a kneel -
ng stool at the altar of mercy and
pardon and love.
The dark, tempestuotis nights in
your sickroom have often been in
God's sight the bright dawn of a
day of Christian usefulness.
It was physical pain that helped
make Fredetack W. Robertson one of
the greatest soul winners of his day,
It was physical pain that helped
draw the multitudes to the cross
when Robert Hall preached in Lon-
don and john Summerfield preached
in Ann:erica:. And it is physical pain
whiah nearly all of us have suffered
in the past and physical weakness
whieh many of ue are suffering now
whieh ousht to make us turn our
faces toward the Goed Pbysician who
can heal the body and heal the
soul,
Now, trouble comes to us en one of
two ways, and it rests with every
one to decide in which of the two
ways it shall come to him. It may
come as a sa.nctifid trouble or as
an unsanctified tnouble, it canes in
both forms to the thieve.s who were
crucified with Jesus. To the one
thief the physieal agony was unsano-
tailed trouble, causing him to . curse
and deride Christ; to the other it
• oante as sanctified trouble, causing
him to plead for Mercy and love.
Uneanctified trouble conies to a man
who stands by his child's open cas•-•
ket, and it embitters him and camas
him to set his jaw in rebellion and
say, "No godid Cod' would have
taken that child out cif my arms,"
Sanctified trouble came to a young
ofilder of my church and caused him
to say to the visiting minister: "I-
do not want a pastor to come into
my eickroom to make merely a
social call. I Want him to come in
to pray; yes, 1 want him to come
in to Pray." In the midst of your
sorrows and trials .are you ready to
let your troubles become eanctitied
troubles? Ane you ready. to sing
about, the tempestuous nights of
trouble, as the Christian poet • once
sang. about' beautiful Lake Galileo?
It is not that the wild ganalle
Cornea down to lap thy tide,
But he that was pierced to Save
. • from hell •
'Ott watle.ed by thy side. '
Graceful around thee the mountains
Met• , .
Thou calm, reposing sect.
But, ah, far more, the '.beautiful
• Of ...Lstis walked o'er thee.
• Are you 'ready to feel that in the
darkest hours of your aight Christ,
i't waiting to speak • to youa • that
• Christ is ready. .to help. you that; he
is tervily to :appear unto you?
There is an old and familiar. story
on 'a Christian lady in. 'the' far east
who had two beautiful boys: 'Both
her sone died itt •• the same night
while her. husband. Was :away. on
iotaney: When the father returnd;
the Mettler • met him with a smile
and said: "Husband, • wnile you.• '

Then he returned the next day • and
wanted them back again. 1 gave
them to him, Should I have done

"If the two aewcis belonged . to the

Intestinal
• Indigestion
Thera are forms of indigestion and dys-
pepsia which can never be reached by
ordinary itomacb medicines and Inacalled
digestants. The kidneys and liver are
involved, and though the stomach may be
all right, It is the part of digestion which
takes place in the intestines that is
imperfect.
All over the country are people who SIM
suffering from just this kind of indigestion.
They don't get well, because they
dont use the right medicine. Dr.
Chase's Kidney.Liver Pills are admirably
oohed for this very trouble. They act
directly on the kidneys, liver and bowels,
reMOve the dime, and make it permanent
