lift them up. Thus the last vestige of hope
is taken from them,
stripping the slain,
The point I want to make is this:
hard, cruel and merciless,
like Baul and his comrades, you lie on the
field, it will come and steal your sword and
helmet and shield, leaving you to the jackal
and the erow,
But the world and satan do not do their
respectabls impenitent man comes to die,
He is fiat on his back. He could not get up
ifthe house was on fire, Adroitest medical
skill and gentle nursing have been a failure,
He has come to his last honr. What does
satan do for such a man? Why, he fetches
up all the inapt, disagreeable and harrowing
things in his life. Hp says: ‘Do you remem-
ber those chances you had for heaven and
missed? Do you remember all those lapses
in conduct? Do you remember all thoes op«
probrious words aud thoughts and actions?
{Don't remember them, eh? I'll make you re-
member them.” And then he takes all the
past and empties it on that deathbed, as the
mailbags are emptied on the postgffics floor.
The man is sick, He cannot get away from
them,
Then the man says to satan: “You have

On the left side the road there was a Hon,
and the man asked the bad angel, “What is

Hon of all devouring despair.” A valtum
flew through the sky, and the man asked the
bad angel, “What is that vulture?” and the
answer was, “That is the valture waiting for
sroasses of the alain.”
And then the man began to try to pull off
him the folds of something that had wound
him round and round, and he said to the bad
angel, “What is it that twists me in this aw-
{ ful convulsion?” and the answer was, “That
is the worm that never dies.” And then the
man said to the bad angel: “What does all
| this mean? I trusted in what you sala at the
corner of Broadway anl Houston street; I
trusted it all, and why have you thus de.

Hence its great value in Consumption, wherein it arrests
the wasting by supplying the most concentrated nour-
ishment, and in Anemia and Scrofula it enriches and
vitalizes the blood. In fact, in every phase of wasting
it is most effective. Your doctor will confirm all we
say about it. Don’t be persuaded to accept a substitute!
