An Illustrated Commentary on the In
ternational Sunday School Leisoni
May Be Obtained by Saving the Art!
olet From Thie Paper Handy Com
pendium For Bible Student,
The Brooklyn Tabernacle articles on
the International Sunday School Les
sons bring out the Instruction Intended
In a way which can be seen to be more
harmonious, beautiful and reasonable
than Is generally understood.
There never was a time when re
Ilglon was Investigated as generally
by all classes of people as It Is today.
There never was a time when helpful
explanations of the Sunday School Les
sons were more needed. The Brooklyn
Tabernacle Lessons are the timely aid
for alL They present the various frag
ments of truth on the different sub
jects In such language as best enables
all classes of readers to grasp the gen
eral thoughts of the lessons clearly.
The Sunday School Teachers and pu-
Dlls who devote fifteen minutes of
study ordinarily, with the hope of mas
tering their lessons, are often disap
pointed; but to those of our readers
who will give Just time enough for a
careful reading of the Brooklyn Taber
nacle single-column article we offer as
surance of pleasemcnt and lasting good.
It Is the design of many readers to
save the Lessons for a period of time
and then have them bound together.
This will constitute a valuable and
helpful commentary upon Sunday
School topics.
The Brooklyn Tabernacle Interna
tional Sunday School Lesson will be a
regular feature In this paper each week.
AN EXPLANATION

A- ' - ' $Z7L. ' 'A,
Tho babies of the St. Agnes
Home at l'arkplace are to nave
a Christmas tree at the home on
Christinas afternoon at 3 o'clock.
although improvements are being
matie in tne interior or the home,
and to the addition north of the
main building. Tho good sisters
of the institution, these being of
the order of bisters of Mercy,
never fail to give the little ones
a Christmas they never forgot. It
nas heen tne usual custom to
have an excellent program ren
dered by the little folks at the
institution heretofore, but it will
be impossible to have the musical
and litoraiy program tnis year,
owing to the improvements Deing
made.
Donations of clothing, shoes
and other articles will gladiy be
received. These will make the
ittle tots haDDy. Last Christmas
many of the residents of this city,
as well as of Portland, were very
liberal with their donations.
The Sisters ot Mercy have ui
children at their home, ranging
in ages from two days to about
12 years. They are received re
gardless of religion.
At tho present time a heating
apparatus is being installed for
tho comfort of the children at a
large expense, and two dormitor
ies are being added to accomo
date the children that are being
cared for. Visitors are alowed on
Thursday and Sunday afternoons
when they are shown through the
building. The dormitories are
kept spotlessly clean, and the tots
are given about five meals a day.
The institution owns eleven Jer
sey cows. Since the typhoid scare
in Oregon City the Sisters have
been boiling the water used by
tho little ones.
During tho past year many
children have heen adopted into
good homes from tho St. Agnes
home. During the month of Oc
tober, three little tots were ad
opted and eight were taken dur
ing November.
The babes are looking forward
with a great deal of pleasure
the arrival of Santa Claus, and
there is no doubt but that many
people from this city will assist
the Sisters in remembering the
children.

"FAGGED-OUT" WOMEN
Will Find a Helpful Suggestion
In This Letter.
Overworked, run-down, "fagged
out" women who feel as though, they
could hardly drag about, should profit
by Miss Rlchter's experience. She
says: Last winter I was completely
run down and felt fagged out all the
time, was nervous and had Indiges
tion. .
"One of my frionds advised me to
take Vlnol, and it has done me great
good. The tired, worn-out feeling is
all gone, and I am strong, vigorous
and well. The stomach trouble soon
disappeared and now I eat heartily
and nave perfect digestion. I wish,
every tired, weak, nervous woman
could have Vlnol, for I never spent
any money In my life that did me bo
much good as that I spent for Vlnol."
Marie Rlchtor, Detroit, Mich.
Thousands, of women and men
who were formerly, weak' and sickly
owe their present ' rugged health to
the wonderful strength-creating effects
of Vlnol. We guarantee Vlnol to build
you up and make you strong, If
it does not, we give back your money.

PROFITABLE DAILY TITHING.
"'Daily Heavenly Manna."
This little book is having the largest
circulation of any of its kind and is
conceded by Christians everywhere to
be the most helpful.
If Christians allow the rush and
crush of selfish ambition to deprive
them of their dally portion of heaven
ly food, they must not be surprised if
they grow spiritually leaner day by
day, and if the peace of God gives
place In their hearts to the discontent
which is growing in the world, not
withstanding the multiplication of our
comforts and privileges.
Daily Heavenly Manna contains a col
lection of Scripture texts with appro
priate quotations for every day in the
year. Surely the little tithe of tune
daily spent in partaking of Its morsels
of heavenly counsel cannot fall to
profit all who partake. It is published
