I. Death—Sorrow (vv. 32-35; also w. 19-21). Try as we may to temper its cruel blow, the fact remains that death is the enemy of man. It came into the world as the result of sin (Rom. 5:12), and only in Christ is it “swallowed up in victory” (I Cor. 15:54). Until the glorious day of MARK Christ's returning when the redemp Mary Ball at 22, When She Wed Nothing better for that rasp or cough than the famous, soothing I tion of the body will be complete Augustine Washington.

III. Christ—Resurrection (vv. 25, 26. 38-44). Majestic and authoritative are the words of Christ, “I am the resur rection and the life.” He it was who gave life, for was he not “in the beginning with God"? And is it not said of him that "all things were made by him”? And Paul tells us that “by him all things consist.” He is the only one who could say, “I lay down my life. I have power to lay it down and I have power to take it up again.” (John 10:17, 18.) So it can rightly be said that if we BEFORE YOU NEED A QUART have Christ we have everything— both in this world and in the world to come. But if we do not have Christ we have nothing. We are without God and without hope. One can sense the urgency of the soul-winner’s task, when this truth is known and realized.

Isn’t that the one that you were telling the girls about at the Bid- Or-Bi club last week, Mabel? Yes, it’s my Sew-Your-Own and I’m real proud of it because it fits so smoothly. There’s no bunchiness at the waistline or hips—it’s fitted, you see—and yet there’s lots of room around the bottom. And do you know how long it took me to make it—no self praise, but exactly two hours by the clock. I simply followed the pattern’s instruction chart— as easy to do as to concoct a new dessert. Tie, Buttons, Hat to Match. It would be grand for a tailored dress like mine, wouldn't it, Ma bel? Just the thing! Are you off to the Civic League luncheon at the Hall? Your dress made up beau tifully in that aquamarine, Grace. I’m crazy about it. The yoke-and-sleeves-in-one idea is swell and the black tie and but tons to match your hat make you look like Mrs. Merriweather her self. Now, now, cut the rave. You know that neat-but-not-gaudy is my motto. Bye, I’ll see you in print. So long . . . Anne, since you like my slip so much, I’ll be glad to help you make one like it, if you want me to. That’s lovely of you, Mabel, but would that sort of thing be right for a “Stylish Stout” like me? You should hear George when I call myself a “Stylish Stout.” He says I flatter my self. That Slenderizing Effect. Leave it to the men! This slip would be especially good for you, Anne, because it’s fitted and, George or no George, you look stylish in that dress you're wear ing—but you DON’T look stout. The panel in front breaks the skirt line, and the jabot and col lar do wonders for the "Buz- turn." It would be grand made up in a flowered print for Spring, Anne. That very idea occurred to me. Why don’t we get together to- morrow afternoon and sew—are you game? Come to my house. I baked a batch of oatmeal cook ies today. It’s a date, Anne, I’ll be over in the morning as soon as the kids are off to school. The Patterns. Pattern 1200 is available in sizes 14 to 20 (32 to 42 bust).

Even my heart seemed to hurt. A friend sug- ested Adlerika. The first dose I took rought me relief. Now I eat as I wish, sleep fine and never felt better.” —Mrs. Jas. Filler. Adlerika acts on BOTH upper and lower bowels while ordinary laxatives act on the lower bowel only. Adlerika gives your system a thorough cleans* ing, bringing out old, poisonous matter that you would not believe was in your system and that has been causing gas pains, sour stomach, nervousness and headaches for months. Dr. H. L. Shoub, New York, reports: “In addition to intestinal cleansing, Adlerika greatly reduces bacteria and colon bacilli.** Give your bowels a REAL cleansing with Adlerika and see how good you feel. Just one spoonful relieves GAS and stubborn constipation. At all Leading Druggists. Good Advice Let us harken unto good ad vice, and spmething may be done for us.—Franklin.
