MEDICINE
Stock and poultry have few
troubles which are not bowel and
liver irregularities. Black
Draught Stock and Poultry Medi
cine is a bowel and liver remedy
for stock. It puts the organs of
digestion in a perfect condition.
Prominent American breeders and
farmers keep their herds and flocks
healthy by giving them an occa
sional dose of Black-Draught Stock
and Poultry Medicine in their
food. Any stock raiser may buy a
25-cent half-pound air-tight can
of this medicine from his dealer
and keep his stock in" vigorous
health for weeks. Dealers gener
ally keep Black-Draught Stock and
Poultry Medicine. If yours does
not, send 25 cents for a sample
can to the manufacturers, The

CHOOSE.
God Doe Hot Impose Arbitrary a4
EarttMOMblei Command, Bat
Se4a Before Vm Facta.
The Bible does not impos upon, as
arbitrary and unreasonable commands.
It sets before us facta, and inviis us
to decide with enthusiasm for one al
ternative or the other for God will
have no lukewarm service. In view oi
the awful temptations and the noble
opportunities with which every life
abounds, it savs to every man who has
ears to hear: "Choose." A glance at j
anv concordance, says tne bunaay
School Times, will show how often
the Bible presents us with the
thought that God makes choices.
Choice is one of the highest ex
ercises of the rational nature, and
the divine command to choose
such a command as was urged by Moses
and Joshua, by Christ and Paul, by all
teachers and leaders who have felt
the everlasting importance of life's
issaes such a command can dis
honor no man. It assumes that we
are rational beings, who were not
made to be driven, but who can exam
ine, and decide for ourselves.
The power to choose, which lifts us
above the brutes, is a power 1-ha.t we
exercise all too seldom. Most lives are
neither conspicuous, successes nor
brilliant f ailures, just because men so
seldom arrest- themselves and make
some deliberate resolve. The mistake
which, blights so many lives is, not that
they make a definite choice of evil, but
that they never choose at all. Too sel
dom do men look alternatives honestly
in the face. They do not choose, they
drift. You could almost count tip on
the fingers of your two hards all the
men you know who have ever n:ut!e
some great and solemn choice which
has seriously shaped their subsequent
career. How many could tell why they
are in this trade or profession, and not
in that; in this church, and not in that?
We are where we are, often, simply be
cause our, parents, or some other of the
powers that be, put us there. So far,
that is right; we must receive our start
in life from other. But, as we love
God and our own eoujs, we must not
;tand there; we must learn to choose
for ourselves, and not drift into the
other world with the helplessness of
the beasts that perisht
Numberless, things of the highest
moment were determined for us before
ever we saw the light. We did not
choose our parents, our family, our
country, our language, our religion,
our soeial station, the sphere within
wlfich our friendship axe possible or
by which our education is limited.
We stand, as it were, within a charmed
circle, across which w often feel we
cannot step. If we move at all, it is
only, like the prisoner, to walk to and
fro and round and round. Yet God has
so made us that it is in our power to
choose the greatest things. Our path
may sometimes seem to be tracked out
for us before ever we begin life's jour
ney; we may seem to be sternly com
passd about by necessity, yet God's
word to every man is "Choose." And
woe to him who stops his ears and al
lows himself to be borne onward
every day nearer and nearer to a goal
which he has never once looked
straight in the face!
Ivor need our choice be a blind one.
it is to be made in the light of our ex
perience. God asks no man to choose
without giving Him facts to deter
mine his choice. We cannot look over
our little lives, still less over the ex
panse of history, without choosing for
God. if we choose at all. Do you not
see how your life has been molded by
Divine fingers? how the disappoint
ment which a few years ago you felt
sure would crush you has opened up
for you other treasures of undreamed
of happiness, which would have been
forever sealed had God then given
you your own foolish vray? Do you
not feel that the bereavement which
seemed to bury your own heart, in the
grave of your dear dead has brought
you after many days- a peace, and
even a quiet joy, which you never
knew before? Your past is written all
over with the finger of God; it is in
the light of all that that you are to
make your choice. The God who bids
you choose is the God who helps you
to choose, who
"From our mother's anna
Hath blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love.
And still ls-ours to-day."
- And the time to choose is to-day.
Time has- no meaning for God: for Him
who is, and was, and i to be, there is
no yesterday and no to-morrow. But
we are creatures of time. A hundred
years ago we were not; in another
hundred years we shall not be not, at
