ADJUSTING STOP
A PARSON'S
REMEDY
By M. QUAD
Copyright, 1912, by Associated Lit
erary Press.
The widow Goodhue had come east
from Michigan and settled In a Con
nectlcut village. She was a childless
woman of forty-five, and the villagers
liked her looks and gave her welcome.
For five or six weeks .all went' well,
and then the widow broke out.
A villager who had done some paint
ing for the widow called for his money
She opened fire on him at once. After
tongue lashing him for five minutes
she picked up a club and drove him
from the premises. She had a garden,
and she had given a neighbor permis
sion to cut the grass for his cow, He
was cutting away when the woman de
scended upon blm and gave him a cuff
on the ear and rushed blm out of the
yard a much frightened man. The gro
cer happened to be passing, and he
halted at the gate to see the run. Mrs.
Goodhue walked out to him and said:
"See here, you baboon faced son of
a gun, you trot right on or I II break
your knees."
The grocer stood with mouth open
and wondered if he bad heard aright.
"Didn't I tell you to trot?" demanded
the widow as she whirled him around
and administered a kick that raked bis
heels six Inches from the ground.
Across the street a carpenter was
building a fence. As be hammered
away a shadow fell across his feet At
the same time a stick fell upon bis
bead.
"What! What's this?" be asked as
he whirled around.
"Too much darned noise!" replied the
woman.
"Why, lady. I have got to hammer In
the nails."
"Then I've got to hammer yon with
this stick!"
And she sailed In and drove blm from
his Job, and, like the grass cutter and
the grocer, he went away to spread the
report that the Widow Goodhue had
gone plumb crazy. The facts In the
matter later renchefl the ears of Dr.
Beazler, the oldest practitioner lu the
county and an acknowledged authority
on mental diseases, and be made a call
to see how bad the case was. He
found the patient seated on the floor
lu the middle of the room, with her
hair down and a broken chair beside
her. At the flrst glauce he decided that
she was crazy.
"Well?" she asked after they had
b tared at each other for half a minute.'
'Ton are not feeling very well?" he
half queried.
"You are an Infernal liar!" she
promptly replied.
Dr. Beazler smiled like the bloom on
a bull thistle and sat down. As he Bat
down the widow Jumped up. He read
his peril In her eyes and made a bolt
for the door and got most of his body
outside before her foot bit the rest of
It That settled it The newcomer
wus as crazy as a March. April or May
bare. She must be restrained. The
law must be appealed to. The village
was agog over the news, but It had
something more' coming to It Next
day and before any steps had been
taken the smiling and good natured
widow was asking the neighbor why
he didn't cut more grass for his cow.
She was at the grocery ordering a big
bill of eatables. She was bowing to
Dr. Iteazler across the street, and she
repaid three or four social calls. Crazy?
Why, the person that said so must be
a born fool. She was Just lovely, she
was.
Five times In one year the widow
had (hose queer spells. Then the good
Deacon Watklns came from a distance
of nine miles to court her and win ber
baud and carry ber off to Medina, it
was all done In six weeks' time, and
none of the villagers posted the wooer
as to those strange spells. He had
been a bridegroom for several weeks
and was still feeling mushy when one
of tliein enme on and gave blm the
surprise of his life. He was cuffed
and kicked down cellar and upstairs
and out of the bouse, and for two days
ho ate raw turnips and slept In the
barn. Then peace aud love were re
stored and all went merrily. There
were four outbreaks before the deacou
began, to think of divorce. Then be
went to his pastor to talk things over.
"She doesn't get hold of liquor?" ask
ed the parson.
"Not a drop; not even cider."
"Was there Insanity In her family?"
"She says not."
"Deacon, you run the house, don't
you?" asked the parson'. x
"Y-e-8, kinder that is, I guess I do."
"Which means that your wife does."
"Um!"
The parson reflected for five mln
utes. and then for five more he was
busy whispering Into the deacon'i
right ear. Then the deacon smiled
and nodded and went home. The next
day the parade weut on his vacation,
und It was six weeks before they met
gain.
"Well?" asked the parson.
"She started In to have another."
"And you"-
"Gave her the gad-licked her good
and stout."
"And she"-
"Cuddled right down; said that was
what ailed her she wanted a strong
hand to boss her. She'll have no more
spells."
"I'm glad to bear It"
"But parson," asked the deacon.
with a puzzled look on his face, "how
did you know the remedy for such
cases?"
The parson didn't say. He simply

ODAY'S lesson gives a special
illustration' along the line of
faith in God. A person was
brought to the Savior to heal
who was deaf and bad an Impediment
in his speech. The Instance under
consideration is peculiar. (1) Because
Jesus took the man
away from the mul
titude and healed
blm privately; (2) it
Is peculiar as to
the means used. He
put His fingers into
the man's ears, as
though to start
some life current
through them; then
He spat and touched Be touched
the man's tongue. '""
Ml
We understand that these methods
were used In order to attract the man'
attention and assist blm in tbe exer
cise of faith.
The statement that Jesus' sighed Is
worthy of note; We can only surmise
that It indicated His deep sympathy
with the man before Him and with the
groaning creation In general. The
lesson seems to be that He was
Touched With a Feeling of Man's In
firmitiee,
as bad been prophesied. He was per
fect, He did not have a body with
aches and pains and blemishes, such
as other men have, but this did not.
make Him cold and unsympathetic.
rather the reverse. His perfect mind
would make all His sensibilities more
active than ours; His sympathy would
be strouger. His sense of pain keener,

accustomed to many of our surround
ings that they are commonplace and

uralforgetting that the natural order

and that the blemished state Is the un
natural.
In yet another way may we suppose
our Master was touched with a feel
lng of our Infirmities, 'namely, by rea
son of His losing vitality on the occa
sion of each miracle. Is not this the
meaning of the Scripture which de
clares that "He poured out His soul
unto death?" Dally, hourly, His vi
tallty was being exhausted hi the heal
lng, blessing, comforting and Instruct
ing of those with whom lie was In
contact This thought should properly
bring our hearts Into very close touch
and sympathy with Him, and give us
that much clearer view of the Savior i
love,
The day before His crucifixion our
Lord said, "My , soul Is exceeding sor
rowful, even unto death; I have a bap
tism to be baptized with, and how am
I straitened until It be accomplished!'
It was accomplished fully the follow
ing day, o'n Calvary, when He cried,
'It Is finished!" His baptism 'Into
death was accomplished,
It is following the account of this
miracle that we read that tbe multi
tude declared the words of our text
We are not to understand that merely
this one healing was the basis of their
comment, for the account of these
same Instances by St. Matthew (xv,
20-31) tells of great multitudes gather
ed, having with them many lame,
blind, dumb and maimed and many
others, and they cast them down at
His feet, and He healed them, Inso
much that the multitudes wondered
and glorified God.
"Manifested Forth His Glory."
Let us never lose sight of the great
central 'thought connected with our
Lord's miracles.
His mission was not
te heal the sick and
to cast out devils,
but to "give His
life a Ransom for
all, to be testified
iu due time." The
secondary feature
of Ills work was
tbe calling of the
"Israelites Indeed
to be' His footstep
followers, who
Who touched Iter woM be reoeIved
of the Father and begotten of tbe
Holy Spirit at and after Pentecost
The miracles were merely Incidentals
and not His real work
It would have been a still greater
and grander work for Jesus to bave ex
pounded the Divine Flan, and to have
opened tbe eyes of the understanding
of the people, and their deaf ears; but
tills work could not be accomplished
to any extent until after He bad as
ceuded up on ulgh. and bad appro
priated the merit of His sacrifice to the
Justification of believers. Hence It
was that Jesus said to His disciples,
"Greater works than these shall ye do.
because I go to My Father."
Tbe account in tbe conclusion of this
lesson, of the feeding of four thousand
people with seven loaves, and the tak
ing of seven hampers of fragments,
was another manifestation of Jesus'
power, or as He would express it of
the DIvlue power In nim. When the
five thousand were fed, five loaves and
two fishes were used, and they were
gotten from a small boy. In this case
tbo disciples themselves had seven
loaves, and gave their all for the feed

TURNED THE TABLES.
A Comedy That Wae Enacted In the
House of Representatives,
In the closing days of 'tbe first ses
sion 1 of tbe Fifty-seventh congress
Uncle Joe Canuon, then chairman
of the appropriations committee, had
vigorously attacked some provisions of
the naval appropriation bill that bad
been Inserted by the senate. Finally
be' secured a vote in tbe bouse, instruct
ing the conferees of tbe bouse not to
recede on their disagreement to one
particularly obnoxious provision.
The matter was debated In confer
ence for about three weeks'. Finally
the bouse conferees yielded In a minor
particular to the senate and reported
an agreement to tbe house. When this
agreement was read and Mr. Cannon
learned that the position of tbe bouse
had been altered by the conferees he
took the floor and In scathing language
denounced the conferees for having, as
he said, "betrayed the house."
A vote was taken, and Mr. Cannon's
position was sustained. Thereupon tbe
speaker, Mr. Henderson, took the
measure out of the hands of the mem
bers of tbe committee on naval affairs
and appointed a new conference com
mittee, consisting of Mr. Cannon (Uncle
Joel. Mr. Moody of Massachusetts and
Mr. Shafroth.
The following morning these confer
ees met tbe senate .conferees, nnd after
a stormy session of several hours' du
ration they found that they, too, would
have to yield to the senate conferees in
minor particular. They then reported
an agreement to the house.
As soon as it bad been read the late
Amos J. Cummlngs. who had been one
of the original conferees, arose at bis
seat, aud. taklug almost the exact
words of Mr. Canuon uttered the
evening before he told -the members
how they had been "betrayed" by their
new conferees. Then, turning to Mr.
Cannon, be said with withering scorn;
"For three weeks the former conferees
of the house fought tbe-senate confer
ees Inch by Inch. It was only when the
members of this house began to ap
peal to us to reach an agreement In
order that they might get away from
the beat of Washington's summer that
we finally yielded In a trilling matter,"
Then, shaking bis Auger at Mr Can
non, who stood across the aisle from

HAPPY THO MARRIED ?
There are unhappy married lives, but a large percentage, of these unhappy
homes are due to the Illness of the wife, mother pr daughter. The feellngi of
nervousness, the befogged mind, the ill-temper, the palo and wrinkled faoe, hollow
and eircled eyes, result most often from those disorders peculiar to women. For
the woman to be happy and good-looking she must naturally have good health,
Dragging-down feelings, hysteria, hot-flashes or constantly returning pains aud
aches are too great a drain upon a woman's vitality and strength. Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription restores weak and sick women to sound health by regu
lating and correcting the local disorders which are generally responsible for the
above distressing symptoms.

I suffered eroatly for a number of years and for the past three
years was so bad that life was a misery to me," writes Mrs. B. F. Dick
over, of Utlca, Ohio, Route 4. " The doctors told me I would have to
g-o to a hospital before I would ever be better. A year atro this winter
and spring 1 was worse than ever before. At each period I suffered like
one in tormont, I am the mother of six children. I was so bad foj
five months thnt 1 knew something must be done, bo I wrote to Dr. B. V,
Pierce, telling him as nearly bb I could how I suffered. He outlined a
Bourse of treatment which I followed to the letter, 1 took two bottles
of Favorite Prescription ' and one of ' Golden Medical Discovery ' and a
(I'ty-cent bottle of 'Smart-Weed,1 and have never suffered much since,
I wish 1 could tell every sufferlnn woman the world over what a boon
Dr. Pierce s medicines are. There is no use wasting time and money
doctoring with anything else or any one else."
