Sife even to his own siitlsfartion.

CHURCHES AND THEATERS.
Every little while seme preaeher de
plores what he believes to be the fact
that the theaters are more successful
la eeenring audience than the churches.
7b it trnel
It may be doubted if in any given
city more persons attend the thoater
than go te the eberehes. Ami all thlnga
considered It way be said that the
chnrfhes meeeed better than the the
aters. The theater has these advantages:
It changes its actors and ita perform
ances frequently. It Is always present
ing something new. The church has
the seme message and the same man
in 'the pulpit from Sunday to Sunday.
And yet fho churches are filled.
In anothor important feature the
theater has an advantage. It adver
tises thoroughly and successfully. A
large percentage of its earning go into
modern advertising. Seldom docs the
church spend a dollar for advertising;
or if it does spend a little money it is
injudiciously spent.
And yet the church draws.
There must be a reason. There is
a roaon. ,Tho church ministers to a
great hutnnn need. It appeals to what
is highest and best in life A great
vacuum, requires to be filled. A great
.longing clamors to be satisfied. Men
and women realize that thoy aro three
fold beings and that to cultivate body
and mlad nlone is only two-thirds of
culture. The man whoso spiritual life
1m atrophied may not feel this, but the
normal' mini dooa. This is the church 's
opportunity and tlio reason for its ex
istence. The church makes mistake when it
fails to advertise It has the best
thing in the world. Tho demand is al
ready created. There can be no sub
stitutlun. It has n monopoly. There
fore it should advertise.
The rhureli ulso mn"ki's u mistake
when It ermils Its ministers to whino
alfout church attendance and call at
tention to the aueecst of tho theater
und other "worldly" entertainments.
Vu never catch a theater manager dc
ploriug a small house. He uovar whines
in public, lie talks big house. And
works for them. And gets them.
The church Is doing very well. In
deed when one considers its methods,
it does surprisingly well.
If with its tremendous advautage,
it would adapt itself semewhat to the
plana of the age it would achieve the
greatest succewi it ha ever kuowH.

Many mothers of families in the United
States have reason to be grateful to the
person who recommended Dr. Piette's
Favorite Prescription. This is a medi
cine specially prescribed for diseases of
womankind. It does not cure eczema,
catarrh in all its forms, nor heart dis
ease, for it is put up for the single pur
pose of curing diseases peculiar to wom
en. It has a reputation of over thirty
five yesrs of cures, and has sold more
largely on this continent than any other
medicine for women. Another point in
its favor it does not contain a single
drop of alcohol or of any narcotic It
is purely vegetable. An alcoholic com
pound for women is something no wom
an should take. Womanly weakness
will always bring on nervous irritability I
and a nervous condition, for which alco-1
hoi is the worst thing in the world.
"What the woman needs is a vegetable
tonic, like Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription, which will build up her deli
cate system and bring about a healthy
tone. It cures the drains and weak
nesses of women, and the manufacturers
offer to pay 500 reward for any case of
Leucorrhea, Peraale Weakness, Prolap
sus, or Falling of Womb, which they
cannot cure. All they ask is a fair and
reasonable trial.
If you want to kuow what ails you
the United States mail will bring you
the best medical advice for only the cost ,
of writing materials and stamps.
Many people owe their present good 1
health to the fact that they consulted 1
Dr. Pierce by letter, giving him all pos-'
Bible information about their condition,
symptoms, etc, and received in return
good medical advice zvhich cost them
nothing. This is why wc advise you to
write to Dr. R. V. Pierce, the founder 1
of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical In
atitute, at Buffalo, N. Y. '
Dr. Pierce by no means confines him-1
nelf to prescribing his well-known medi-,
dnes. He tells vou in the most com-1
mon-sense way what ails you, what you
ought to do, what line of treatment
should be followed out in vour particular
case, and if vour case does not indtcate
the need of his proprietary medicine, he
m-
tells you plainly and frankly what you
do need, and the best possible method of
improving your health. If yon are a
young woman just entering upon the
duties of life, ou should have good
medical advice of a confidential nature.
If you're the mother of children, you
may want advice about yourself and how
best to put your system in order that
your children may 'be healthy. To suf
ferers from chronic diseases which do
not readily yield to treatment, or to
people who are past the youthful stage
of life and want confidential advice about
their ailments or their physical condi
tion, Dr. Pierce offers careful considera
tion and the lest medical advice within
his power, free of cost.
" Favorite Prescription is indeed an
ideal medicine for women, and bv far
the best I have known to restore" lost
health and strength," writes Mrs. R C.
Roelker, 24 Ingram Street, Henderson,
Ky. "I suffered misery for several
years, lieing troubled with monorrhagia
My back ached and I had bearing-down
paius and frequent headaches. Would
often awake from sleep in such pain and
suffering it would be hours before I
could close my weary eyes again. I
dreaded the long nights as well as the
weary days. Consulted two different
physicians hoping to get relief, but find
mg thst their medicine did not seem to
cure me. I tried Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, as a friend had recotn
mended it so strongly. Am glad that I
followed her advice for it wis the only
medicine for me. Every ache and pain
K 8af. and nt only this, my general
health has improved. I feel well and
strong, have a fine appetite hive eafeed
flesh and never looked better! sg $.

'Favorite Prescription' and they wS
