I suffered terri- ble pain about my stomach all the time, and at times I would turn so deathly sick that I could hardly re. tain a thing I had eaten. I dropped off twenty-#even pounds in weight and hardly had strength to raise my hands, and was so nervous for al most six weeks that I hardly slept at all I finally got down flat on my back in bed—couldn't take a bit of nourishment except a little milk— and for five weeks [ thought sure I would never pull through. “I was stopping with my nephew, in Tacoma, at this time, and as he had seen Tanlac recommended so highly, he went down and got a bottle for me. Well, sir, by the time I finished ty first bottle I was on my feet and feeling like a different man. My appetite picked up right away, and I soon got so I couldn't get enough to eat, and ever since I finished my second bottle I have been feelnig strong and fine as you please.

CHARLES STELZLE One of the greatest tragedies in connection with the Russian revolu- tion is the pitiful position of the Greek church—the state chureh of Russia. Under the old regime the armies of Russia marched under the ban- ners of the church—the Greek cross dominant. Today, while the soldier still has the spirit of religion in his heart, his contempt for the church is supreme. Apparently, the influence of the Greek church during the trying days of Russia's tragedy amounts to al most nothing, altho it was assumed that {t had a strong hold on the peo- ple, judging by the number of eccies- iastical buildings scattered thruout the country, and the formal observ- ances by all the people of feast days and holy days For gmerations every newspaper thruout Russia had on Easter morn- ing, printed in large type across the front page, the words: “Christ is Risen.” Last Easter most of the news: papers printed in its stead: “One hundred years ago today Karl Marx was born.” ‘There are at least two reasons for the failure of the Russian ehureh: First, it had been largely used by the government in its spy system to capture “agitators of social un- rest"—the men and women who were protesting aguinst Siberia, the Rus- sian “knout"—the cruel whip of the police, the Cossack, the hell of the for generations. Being a state insti- tution, the ‘church dared not stand for such “radicalism” against the czar. Second, while Russia was in the |throes of its rebirth, the church at |its conventions and conferences dis- cussed, not the problems of the peo- |ple, but purely academic questions |which had nothing whatever to do |with the fire thru which Russia was passing. Here and there a priest was loyal to the people and fought with them and for them, but in the main, the [church stood for the existing order, Its present position proves it—one of helplessness and lack of power in jthe most opportune moment in its history. Isn't there a lesson here for the church in America? Not that the church {n this country is as indif- \ferent to the needs of the people as the Russian chureh has apparently been, but even here there are those who insist that the chureh has noth- ing to do with men’s bare backs and empty stomach#—that its sole busi- ness 1# that of preaching the “sim. ple gospel"— whatever that may mean, would) state) Political despotism that ruled Russia} 1 id | TOUCHING A MAN’S HEART | Even hia old —— a | He was looked upon by his business a a stern, gruff, settled old business man. stenographer often referred to him as a “ero thing!” In his home, his children carefully picked the proper opportunities to climb upon his knee and ask him to sing to them, or to tell them stories.
