EVERYTHING BUT WORK
The simple statement that "of all the allied countries. France has
the creates! resources, but will be unable to meet her war ooiiga
tions,'' was made at the American Bankers' Association Convention
in New York last week without explanation or comment.
It was unnecessary, however, that reason for the situation ex-
Dressed in the closiue words of the statement be offered. Those who
heard the declaration, and those who read it in the news reports of
the gathering, understood. France has been and is so busy spending
money for other purposes aside even from her task of restoring war
desolated regions of her domain that all her available money
gleaned from her superior resources is being absorbed in these ae-
tivities.
England, with business less successfully operating than is in
dustry of France, has money for meeting her pressing claims, and
pledges payment of every debt. The reason is that England has been
rininir rrnnA fiimnrnprinfT nd well ns much nolitical wire-pulling. The
"-t) ci ; o -
former has, as a matter of fact, had better results than the latter.
America is, of course, far better off than Old "World countries,
singly or all together. The reason is not difficult to find. The United
States has not been looking to any outside interest or people to sup
port her citizenship in part or in whole while they enjoyed worklcss
existence. This country has been the scene of a vase ajnount of fam
ily quarreling in the last four years but how we have done business
at the same time! "Work! With both hands and with every mental
faculty alert. We knew we had to do this or starve to death, for the
rest of the world has never held out a helping hand to the American
Republic, and neter will.
Work work work! That is America's program it has been
this race's way since the days when the first settlers landed on the
New World's shores. - No wonder our country is successful and pow
erful and rich ! Work made it that way and is keeping it so. The
Old World had better opportunities, better aids, more people, fewer
'obstacles to overcome but trusted to politics instead of human ef
fort directed along every line demanding labor and swill and courage
and persistence. St. Louis Times.

WOELD-WLUS PROHIBITION
WORLD'S TEMPEEAKCE SUNDAY
(ItJiu 61:1-9.)
Drunkenness is severely and with
out qualification condemned as degrad
ing and sinful. The sin of drunken
ness has come down through the ages.
There is every Indication from both
, sacred and profane history that the
making of strong drink is almost as
old as the human race itself, and that
In consequence, drunkards were among
the first of the sinners. The Bible ut
ters the most threatening warnings
against drunkenness, promising woe
and punishment to those who fall into
its snare.
In the early days of Moses we hear
him say that men should separate
themselves from strong drink. (Num.
6:3). "He shall separate himself from
wine and strong drink" then to take In
the light wines and beers demanded In
our day the Word says that he shall
not even drink the liquor of grapes,
nor the moist grapes, or dried. This
was tho vow of the Nazarlte. The pun
lshment was "Woe. Woo untl them that
rise up early in the morning, that they
may follow strong drink; that continue
until nlgbt, till wine inflames them,
Prov. 81:4-6. "They drink and forget
the law." Isa. 6:11. Intoxication is a
sin not only against God and the Indi
vldual solf, but against the social unit
whether It be the city or the nation.
The lesson for our discussion an
nounces a day of world-wide recon
struction. Not only along the Hue of
temperance but II iuuludss both the
spiritual and temporal welfare of tbi
world. We use to live la a day wbsn
H wm great dlsunce eve serosa our
own United States but that day is past
and we have all been made to realize
that the whole world is but a large
community. The world is practically
one body. The welfare or distress of
any one part cannot bo confined to
that part. This fact is rapidly being
taken Into account by our leading
statesmen and diplomats of the world-
powers. That day of world-wide recon
struction as dealth with In our scrip
ture lesson has no reference to any
particular ein as that of drink but ap
plies to all sin existing In the fabric
of social institutions. Prohibition,
either national or world-wide was far
from the tbohghl of the writer of this
passage of scripture.
When the prophecies of this lesson
are fulfilled In toto we will have world
wide prohibition and all other immor
alities and social wrongs will have
done away and the heart of Christ will
be satisfied for righteousness will
reign supremely. Seeing then that tbi3
it the hope of the Christian and in the
plan of God, we should take courage
that these principles aro not only the
thoughts of bigh-minded prophets
alone but His plan la becoming the
plan of practical statesmen. The chris
tian should therefore more vividly keep
this goal In mind and seek Ma attain
ment with all brotherly love.
The accomplishment of so great a
missionary task we will share our
blessings with the world, even to the
ends of the world, and the persuading
of me nto acceut this blesslnc by their
'own decision will, U seems to the writ
er, necessitate tho preaching and
' teaching to all nations the Oospel of
W Lord and Sartor, Jesus Christ

98 Out of Every 100 Women
Benefited
An Absolutely Reliable Statement
Important to Every Woman
Remarkable Results Shown by a Nation
Wide Canvass of Women Purchasers of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
r Astsv 111 a
au.uuu women Answer
For some time a circular has tcn
enclosed with each bottle of our
medicine bearing this question:
"Have you received benefit from
taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound?"
Replies, to date, have been re
ceived from over 50,000 women
answering that question.
S8 per cent of which say YES.
That means that 98 out of every
1 00 women who take the medi
cine for the ailments for which
it is recommended are benefited
by it
This is a most remarkable record
of efficiency. We doubt if any
r ther medicine in the world
equals it.
Think of it only two women
out of 100 received no benefit
CS successes out of a possible 100.
Did you ever hear of anything
like it? We must admit that
we, ourselves, are astonished.
Of course we know that our med
icine does benefit the large major
ity of women who take it. But
that only two out of 100 received
no benefit is most astonishing.
It only goes to prove, however,
that a medicine specialized for
certain definite ailments not a
cure all--one that is made by the
most scientific procete; not from
drugs, but from a combination
of nature's roots and herbs, can
and does do more good than
hastily prepared prescriptions.
You see, we have been making,
improvingand refiningthis med
icine for over 50 years until it is
so perfect and so well adapted to
women's needs that it actually
has the virtue to benefit 98 out of
every 100 women who take it.
It's reliability and recognized
efficiency has gained for it a sale
in almost every country in the
world leading all ethers.
Such evidence should induce every woman suffering from
any ailment peculiar to her sex to try Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and see if she can't be one of the 98
