NOT FOR HUMAN EYE
Insight Into the Mysteries of
God’s Plans Concealed From
His Children.
There are many paths of thought
and experience which lead to atheism,
but none perhaps which is more fre
quently traveled 'ban that of the in
ability of the human soul to interpret
^rationally and morally the workings
of the universe. Again and again we
find ourselves standing dumb and
helpless before the inexplicable mys
teries of earth. How to explain the
stupendous cataclysms of nature, the
universal horror of the struggle for ex
istence, the innumerable agonies of
animal life, man's inhumanity to man.
the ravages of disease, the barbarisms
of war. the sorrows of death—how to
reconcile the hard facts of evil with
the conception of an all wise, all just
and all powerful Qod—this is a ques
tion which we cannot seem to answer.
And. failing to answer, we Jump at
once to the sweeping conclusion that,
these things being true, there is no
God. “I cannot understand the uni
verse," is the line of argument, "and
therefore 1 cannot believe in God."
Infidelity Not Logical.
Now, that we should find it difficult
to understand the world of nature and
of man is not a thing to be woudered
at. The further we penetrate into the
great world of being the deeper be
comes the mystery in which we find
ourselves involved. But that we should
| immediately assume, because of the
inability of our little minds to fathom
every depth and Beale every height,
that God is a sheer lffcmeut of the
imagination is certainly a thing to be
wondered at to the very end of time.
For when has failure to understand
ever before been taken to be bona lido
evidence that there Is nothing to un
derstand? The schoolboy is undoubt
edly unable to work out the answer to
I his algebra problem, but what right
I has he to throw down his pencil and
shout that tho problem has no anewer?
! 1 certainly fail In miBcruble fashion to
! decipher the inscription on this broken
| tablet from the Egyptian desert, but
{ this does not prove that the letters
| have no meaning.
Not Given Us to Understand.
For countless ages men saw nothing
but conflict and disorder in the world
of natural forces, but this demonstrat
ed not that the universe was chaotic
but that tho human reuson wus not
yet acute enough In observation and
daring enough in imagination to be
hold the law and order which has
since been unveiled. And so with the
great question of God. It may be true
that I cannot see any evidence of di
vine goodness and wisdom In the
world. It may be true that I cannot
understand the place of flood and pes
tilence and sudden death in a world
created and ruled by a beneficent
Deity. It may be true that I can work
out no answer to thl« tangled problem
of existence. Hut who am I, pray, that
I should expect to do this thing? And
why should my failure be taken as in
any sense proof positive that it is not
to be done at all? Where is the logic
of such a conclusion from such a
premise? Is it not more logical to
argue that my failure to understand is
perhaps a reflection upon my powers
of understanding, rather than a reflec
tion upon the understandable charac
ter of the problem Itself? Is it not at
least possible that the answer is there,
even though I cannot see it, and that
some day a mightier understanding
than mine will make It plain?
Ho at least I try to think. It is my
faith that God lives and that his reign
is at once wise and good, even though
I fail to understand. “I believe; help
thou mine unbelief.*'—Rev. John
Haynes Holmes.

WESTERN CANADA
CAME INTO EVIDENCE
A T THE CRUCIAL PERIOD FOR
SUPPLY OF WORLD'S FOOD*
STUFFS.
The present demand for foodstuffs
In all parts of the vorll, and the ex*
penae of producing It on high-priced
lands, would make It seem that west
ern Canada came into evidence at the
crucial period. There is to be found
tho opportunity that will be a large
factor in meeting this demand. With
its millions of acres of land, easily
cultlvatabie, highly productive, acces
sible to railways, and with unexcelled
climatic conditions, the opportunities
that are offered and afforded are too
great to be overlooked.
There have been booms in almost
every civilised country and they were
looked upon as such, and in the course
of time the bubble was pricked and
was burst. But In no country has the
development been as great nor as
rapid, whether in city or in country,
as In western Canada. »
The provinces of Manitoba, Sas
katchewan and Alberta have the larg
est area of desirable lands on the
North American continent, and their
cultivation has Just begun.
Even with a two hundred million
bushel wheat crop, less than eight
per cent, of the land is under the
ploughs, four per cent, being in wheat.
Less than five years ago the wheat
crop was only 71.000,000 bushels. It
Is a simple calculation to estimate
that if four per cent, of the available
cultlvatabie area produces something
over 200.000,000 bushels, what will 44
per cent, produce? And then look at
the Immigration that Is coming into
the country. In 1901 It was 49,149,
17,000 being from the United 8tates;
In 1906 it was 189,064, of which 57,000
were Americans, and In 1918 It was
about 400,000, of which about 140.000
were Americans. But why have they
gone to Canada? The American farm
er Is a man of shrewd business in
stincts. Just like his Canadian brother,
and when he finds that he can sell his
own farm at from |100 to |200 per
acre and move into Canada and home
stead and pre-empt half a section for
himself, and similarly for all his sons
who are adult and of age upon lands
as rich and fertile as those he left,
and producing Indeed several bushels
to the acre in excess of anything he
has ever known, it will take more
than an ordinary effort to prevent him
from makintr tho chnnee
And then, too, there is the American
capital following the capital of brawn,
muscle and sinew, following It so as
to keep In touch with the Industrious
farmer with which It has had dealings
for years back. This capital and tho
capital of farming experience Is no
small matter In the building up of a
country.
Nothing Is said of the great mineral
and forest wealth, of which but little
has been touched.
No country In the world’s history
has attracted to Its borders a larger
number of settlers In so short a time,
or has attracted so much wealth In a
period of equal length, os have tho
Canadian prairies. Never before has
pioneering been accomplished under
conditions so favorable as those that
exist In western Canada today.—Ad
vertisement,

Reliable evidence Is abundant that women
are constantly being restored to health by
Lydia E. Plnkham’a Vegetable Compound
The many testimonial letters that we are continually pub*
lishing in the newspapers—hundreds of them—are all genu
ine, true and unsolicited expressions of heartfelt gratitude
for the freedom from suffering that has come to these
women solely through the use of Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound.
Money could not buy nor any kind of influence obtain
such recommendations; you may depend upon it that any
testimonial we publish is honest and true—if you have any
doubt of this write to the women whose true names anq
addresses are always given, and learn for yourself.
Read this one from Mrs. Waters:
9*?®**** N’J’*—“1 was sick for two years with nervous spells, and
my kidneys were affected. I had a doctor all tho time and used a
gal vanio battery, but nothing did me any good. I was not able to go
to bed, but spent niv time on a couch or in a sleopinir-ch&ir. and 90011
became almost a skeleton. Finally my doctor went away for his
health, and my husband heard or Lydia E. Pinkham’s vegetable
Compound and got me some. In two months I got relief and now J
--—vrrw iwmuia X gui *01104 HI1U X1UW I
am like a new woman and ain at my usual weight. I recommend
your medicine to every one and so does my husband.”—Mrs. Tir.r.ra
Watkus, 1135 Knight St., Camden, N.J.
And thls«one from Mrs. Haddock:
Utica, Okla.—“I was weak and nervous,not able to do ray wotIi
and scarcely able*to bo on my feet. I had backache, headache, palpC
totion of the heart, trouble with my bowels, and inflammation. Slnoa
taking the Lydia E. IHnkham’s Vegetable Compound I am better
than I have been for twenty years. 1 think It is a wonderful medl
cine and I have recommended it to others.”—Mrs. Maht Ann h*™.
dock, Utica, Oklahoma.
Now answer this question if you can. Why should a
woman continue to suffer without first giving Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compoiind a trial ? You know that
it has saved many others—why should it fail in your case?
Fop 30 mra Lydia E. Plnkbam*8 Vegetable
Compound has been the standard remedy for fe
male ills. No one sick with woman’s all men is
docs Justice to herself if she does not try this fa
mous medicine made from roots and herbs, It
has restored so many suffering women to health.
