Gratitude is the best possible fer

MONDAY EVENING,
j for these blessings.
| Such a prayer ploughs Its way
I through space and makes an avenue
j for the descent, of other blessings.
The 1 .ords of Karma who stand
. guard over our Uvea are pleased with
| our gratitude. They are the High
: Officials sent out by the Mighty One
J to lead us into the paths most neces
; sary for our best development.
Whe nxve give praise for anything
life has bestowed upon us, these Lords
j of Karma know we are gaining in wis
dom and worth, and they are ready to
i off"r us greater opportunities."
But to the ungrateful and com
plaining soul they send trouble and
; pain, until it learns its lesson of grati
tude for every ray of light which falls
upon it.
Gratitude must not be confounded
j with self-satisfaction.
The self-s.itislied soul obstructs the
i path of its own progress.
There is a healthful discontent
| which means growth, and this, too,
pleases the great Lords of Karma.
When we have finished our
prayer of gratitude for the blessings
and the opportunities of life it is well
to begin a brief analysis and to lay
bare to our higher perceptions the
weaknesses and faults which have pre
vented our best achievements.
"Have I been indolent? Have I
postponed my duties? Have I done
careless work? Have I lacked in
promptness and dispatch? Have I
been too well satisfied with myself
and my methods? Have I been too
sell-centred and shown too little ap
preciation of others? Have I allowed
unworthy sentiments and emotions?
Then let me ask the great Lords of
Karma, to lead me to higher ideals
and to endow me with greater strength
iio-aay 'hat I may rise above these
I errors and make myself worthy of
; my blessings and my opportunities."
L? h ? n ' lavln S made this analysis and
I his invocation, go forth joyfully to
? <vP 11 rid profit in every event
lor the day, conscious that vou are
I slowly but certainly climbing'to suo-
I cess through the pathway of aspira-
I tion. r
You are building a worthwhile char
i u C tfi"' arK ' w '°rtli while character
builds a satisyfing destiny and brings
>OU eventually back to God. For that
J® the Purpose of life —getting back to
God.
j AH the aim of life is just getting back
to God;
Spirit casting off its dust, getting back
to God.
Every grief we have to bear—
Disappointment, cross, despair
Each is but another stair climbing
back to God.
Step by step and mile by mile getting
'back to God;
Nothing else is worth the while, get
ting back to God.
Light and shadow fill each day;
Joys and sorrows pass amay.
Smile at all, and smiling asy.
Getting back to God."
Wear his glory on your face, getting
back to God;
Radiate the light of grace, going back
to God.
Take what pleasures you can find,
But through all the paths that wind,
Keep the purpose well in mind,

LACK OF FRESH AIR
Causes Rundown Condition
How to Keep Strong
Statistics prove that the death rate
is very much greater in the winter
months than in summer, and that the
lack of fresh air is largely responsible
for this condition.
If the system becomes rundown,
blood thin and watery, circulation
poor, no appetite, don't dose with
drugs, but take our delicious cod liver
and iron tonic Vinol, not a patent
medicine, as everything in it is named
on every package, and if It does not
give you a hearty appetite, enrich the
iilood and create strength we will re
turn your money; that shows our faith
in Vinol.
A case has just come to our atten
tion from Knoxville, Tenn. Miss Car
rie. King says: "For three years I was
ill run-down, weak, had no appetite,
and after all that time I am glad to
say Vinol has brought back my health
and strength."

Women Should Take Warning
If the statement made at a New
York assembly of women, that healthy
American women are so rare that they
are almost extinct, is true, it is time
for the women of America to take
j warning and look to their health. It
may be headaches, backaches,' drag

iof some organic derangement for
which Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable

QUITMEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take a glass of Salts if your
Back hurts or Bladder
troubles you
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, 'says a
well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid, which excites the kidneys,
they become overworked from the
strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the
waste and poisons from the blood, then
we get sick. Nearly all rheumatism,
headaches, liver trouble, nervousness,
dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary dis
orders come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or If
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, stop
eating meat and get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take
a tablespoonful in a glass of water be
fore breakfast and In a few days your
kidneys will act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
flush and stimulate the kidneys, also to
neutralize the acids in urine so it no
longer causes irritation, thus ending
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
com plications.—Advertisement.
