EAR CR':'LIC A ND C AP d These and many other bowel com- plaints such'is dysentery, cholera morbus, • 'cholera infantum. or any other looseness of the bowels, may be quickly relieved by a few doses of Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Strawberry. It is without a doubt one of the safest and most reliable remedies in existence. It has been a .household remedy for the past 74 years. Its effects are instantaneous, and it docs not leave the bowels in a oonsti- plated condition Mr Joseph Dale, 730 10th S't., Saska- toon, Sask., writes:—"having. used Dr. Fowler's Blared of Wild Strawberry for many years, I am in a position to strongly recommend it for diarrhoea, colic, and cramps. In violent cases of alkali water poisoning it has proved a remedy of superlative quality, and many a time some poor harvester or laborer has .,, b1c sed me for the administration of a dose of this valuable and highly efficient remedy. I would advise every home- steader and thresherman to keep a bottle on hand." If some unscrupulous druggist tries to talk you into taking some other prepara- tion when you ask for "Dr Fowler's" refuse to take it, as theee no -name, no reputation substitutes may be dangerous to your health.

Golden Text, Psahns 86: 12. The lessons of the past quarter ..ye dwelt upon the highest subjects of human thought—God, Christ, the Holy Spirit, human nature, sin, grace, repentance, faith, obedience, prayer and love. What have we learned of all these, and what have we made our own permanent possession to enrich mind and heart? Our opportunity has been great; have we profited by it? Three great outstanding facts we have ]earned: (1) That God is our Father in heaven, loving IIis childrenu, even the erring and lost ones, with a father's changeless love; (2) That the gracious love of God in Jesus Christ and through His Spirit has •entered into the world to redeem, re- generate and save; and (3) That our response to God's work of love in Jesus Christ is in sincere repentance, faith, doing God's will, prayer, and above all love, love both to God and .our fellow men. This response to the love of God, which it is our high privilege and joy to make is described in the passage selected for to -day's reading. It is, Paul says: (1) The willingn;":;s to put everything else aside, to "count all things but loss; for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord." It is (2) to follow Christ in the way of faith, doing our appointed task as a service rendered to God, and so finding not a righteousness of our own devising, but "the righteous- ness which is of God by faith." And it is (3) seeking to know Christ and, even through suffering, if it be nec- essary, to rise with Him into.. the triumphant life of the Spirit, and to press forward in' the strength 'and hope of this new life to the attain- ment of the "prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus," that is the life eternal. Our response, then, is in putting Christ first, in following Him, and in seeking to be like Him.. Through Him we come to God. His presence with us now is in the reality and aliger of the Spirit. We trust in Him and yield ourselves to His command. He binds us to Himself by the indis- soluble bond of love. He gives eter- nal life. 'Ie is "abundantly able to save." IS YON HEART NM TEST IT OUT. The way to find out if your heart is weak is to put your finger on your pulse. The average heart of the average man or woman should beat 70 times to the minute. If it beats much below or above this average there is something wrong. There may be palpitation, shoot- ing pains through the heart, sleepless 'mess, shortness of breath, faint and dizzy spells, waking up in the night as if smothering, a feeling of oppression, the feet and hands become clammy and cold, a bluish tinge appears about the lips, the blood rushes to the head, or there is a sensation of "pins and needles". If any of these symptotns arise take Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills, and .you will find they will fix up the tvealc heart in no time. They do this by regulating the heart's action and invigorating the nerves. Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills are 50e. a box at all dealers, or mailed direct on receipt of price by The T. Milburn Cup..

Not for the lakes of glancing blue "love this land of mine, , • Not for the dark Laurentian streams Berimmed with spruce and pine, Not for the blushing winter peaks Where snows forever shine! * * * * Nay. Were my land a wilderness, Still here would I abide. It Is the soul of Canada That lifts my head in pride. Mother of half -a -million men - Who Tyranny defied. re-ntville' n "I've got a quarter to spend for firecrackers for Dominion Day," said Raymond Hart. He pulled from his pocket a shiniig coin and showed it to Nelson Harney and Bobbie Lin- coln, who were sitting with him under a spreading elm in his dooryard. "I'm going to have more than that," said Nelson. "I'm helping Mrs. Harris keep the weeds out of her garden this month, and all that she gives me is going to be spending money for the First. It will he a lot —a dollar, anyway." Then Raymond began to tell what he should buy with a dollar, if he had as much as that to spend for the First.. He was sure that it would be something that would make a lot of noise. Nelson was of much the same mind, except that he favored buying a drum instead of firecrackers. A drum would last longer. At first Bobby Lincoln listened without saying a word. Then he be- gan to fidget a little, and suddenly he spoke up. "I've saved almost a dollar," he said, "and before the First I shall have some more. I'm going to spend it all for thrift stamps." "What are thrift stamps?" asked Raymond. "They are something like our pos- tage stamps," answered Bobbie, "only you don't put them on letters. The money that you pay for them goes to help pay our war debts, and by and by the postmaster or the bank man will buy- back the stamps from you and give you more than you paid for them, too." "But if we spend our money that way, we shall have none for the First," said Raymond. "Well, isn't it better to help our country than to buy a lot of fire- crackers or drums?" asked Bobbie, stoutly. "Yes, of course," agreed Nelson, "but what we have is not really enough to help." "Every little bit helps," said Bob- bie. "That is what my father says, and my teacher said so, too. ' And a thrift stamp costs only a quarter." "Where do you buy the stamps?"' ay asked Raymond, taking the shining coin out of his pocket again, "At the post office or the bank," answered Bobbie. "Some of the stores have them, too. And when we buy the thrift stamps, you know, it isn't real- ly spending our money, for we shall get it back, and more, too, in a few years. Then we can have a celebra- tion if we want to." • Raymond kept turning over and over the (Furter in his hand. Nelson looked across the shady street to the garden of Mrs. Harris. "If we buy stamps," said Raymond, "why isn't that a pretty good way to celebrate Dominion. Day this year? What do you think, Nelson?" "I think that it is the very best way," said Nelson promptly. "It will not make a noise like firecrackers or a drum, but it will help Canada." "Then let's call- it settled, and we will all buy thrift stamps with our Dominion Day money," said Ray- mond. "All right," agreed Nelson, "and we'll do more than that. We'll see the other fellows and get all that we can to do the same thing." "I guess that it will be the strang- est Dominion Day that Brentville ever knew," said. Bobbie, "but I be- lieve that it will be the best one, too." That is how it began. The other boys .in the village were ready enough to join the Thrift Stamp Club that Bobbie, Nelson and Raymond formed. Some of them, indeed, were already saving their money for stamps, as Bobbie had been saving his.. Bobbie was right. It was indeed a strange Dominion Day celebration for the Brentville boys, but every one of them was proud of that, for .it meant that many quarters had been saved to help pay for the great war. And when the boys marched to the post office to buy the stamps with the money from the club treasury, and then marched to the batik ate give the stamps to Mr. Fletcher, the cashier, for safe -keeping, the fathers and mothers of the village were proud of them. I think' they had a right to be. And no doubt the boys of many other places are like those of Brentville. It will be well, therefore, to make the review lesson centre in Christ, and to think chiefly of our relation to IIim, our choosing of Hint as Lord and Master, our enlisting in His ser- vice, our finding true life in Him. We may think also of what Christ is doing in and for the world, the spread of• His gospel, His power over the hearts of men, His law of peace and good will, His supreme obedience to the law of love, which He would make, through His Spirit, the law of all the world. "0 Love that casts out fear, 0 Love that casts out sin, • Tarry no more without, but come and dwell within. True sunlight of the soul, surround me as Igo; • So shalt my way be safe, my feet no straying know." • Where He Won the"Name.

No one can be healthy with the kidneys in a diseased or disordered state. The poisonous uric acid which it is their duty to filter out of the blood is carried into the system, and produces all kinds of kidney troubles, such as backache, weak, lame or aching back rheumatism, swelling of the feet and ankles, urinary disorders, bladder troubles, headaches, etc., and unless these are attended to promptly, serious compliesa tions aro sure to arose and perhaps de- velop ..into dropsy, diabetes, Bright's diseases or other serious kidney trouble. Mrs. Abel Corkum, East Berlin, N.S., writes:—"T was a great sufferer from kidney disease, headache and constipa- tion. The trouble was of a dropsical nature as my kgs would swell up and 1 could scarcely. walk. The doctor did not seem to help me, so I started to use Doan's :Kidney Pills.

Neither do I like girls who bring themselves to the attention of men in a bold way; but, my dear, as between forwardness of that kind and complete aloofness, there is a happy medium, and you should cultivate an approachableness. By all means take advantage of the opportunity to meet this most de- sirable young man at his sister's home. That is the nicest way yon can manage it. F. W. R.: What can you do to en- tertain the boy who is too quiet and "just won't talk?" Absolutely no- thing apart from being as entertain- ing and sympathetic as you can. Lots of girls like quiet, reserved men and to me such reserve of manner is many times an indication of real worth. If you do all you can to bring him out, by talking of the things in which he is most interested, and he still re- mains silent and taciturn, then either resign yourself to his type and see the good points in him or drop his friendship. Mrs. John R.: "My daughter has coal black hair, clear blue eyes and a very fair skin. She is in high school and is sensitive about colors. Could you give me some •suggestions as to the best colors to use in her school dresses?" Coal black hair, blue eyes, and a very fair skin are rather an unusual combination and I can readily under- stand why you are puzzled as to the colors that are best suited to her. Our daughters are far more sensitive about colors than most of us imagine and it is the wise mother who con- sults her daughter's preferences and then, with a little study, determines what is most becoming to her. This girl can wear all shades of blue and I would suggest one-piece dresses of navy blue serge or poplin for school wear. She should wear cream or ivory white wash satin collars with these. Brown in the golden and golden tan shades, very dark red, all the shades of grey especially blue grey, soft shades of yellow and shell pink or apricot, are her colors. All these are classed as subdued colors. The strong colors should never bew orn by any- one of this type. If she has a good deal of color in her face, black will also prove very becoming, though she is rather young for it yet.
