Powar of Lightning.
Lightning has been proved to have
struck a building with a force equal
to mure than 12.000-burse power. A
single horse power, In mechanical cal-
culation, Is equivalent to raising a
weight of 33,000 pounds one foot In
a minute. Thu force of lightning,
therefore, has been proved to be equal
to the rslslng of 3S4.000.000 pounds
one foot In a minute. This Is equal
to the united power of 12 of our larg-
est steamers, having collectively 24
engines of 600-horse power each. The
velocity of electricity is so great that
It would travel round the world eight
times In a second.

ANURIC!"
NEWEST IN CHEMISTRY
This is a recent discovery of Doctor
Pierce, head of the Invalids' Hotel,
Buffalo, N. Y. Experiments for sev-
eral years proved that there is no
other eliminator of uric acid compa-
rable. For those easily recognized
symptoms of inflammation—as back-
ache, scaldihg urine and frequent uri-
nation, as well as sediment in the
urine, or if uric acid in the blood has
caused rheumatism, "Anuric" acts
quickly. In rheumatism of the joints,
in gravel and gout, invariably the
pains and stiffness which sc frequently
and persistently accompany the dis-
ease rapidly disappear.

He like heavy stones between us and
our departed dear ones, and we say:
"Who shall roll away the stone?"
The message of Kaster is an an-
swer. Tba Inspiration of Easter is
that we. too, find tho stone rolled
away. We are often told that we err
to sorrow for our loved ones gona,
but this Is not true Jesus sorrowed
greatly with those who had met such
losses as ours He would not have
us sorrow aa those who have no
hope, but he recognised that It would
be unnatural nqt to grieve, and un-
kind not to remember. Let us re-
mind ourselves that Jesus would not
have us put away all signs of those
gone out of sight: that he would not
have us live as though they had
never been with us. "They are not
dead; they are Just away." This is
one stone rolled away from our
aepulchers.
Here we desire to do many things
which the limitations of the flesh
prevent. But when the fleshly limi-
tation is removed our love, our mem-
ory. our aspiration, our results of rich
experience, all those real qualities
which make us ourselves, are free to
do and to be. One of the highest In-
ducements to a spiritual life now is

this fact that we are making here our
status there. Death is the commence-
ment of greater effectiveness for life.
That stone is rolled away from our
aepulchers.
It is also true that Christ gave
ground for believing that our loved
ones gone are still with us. He told
his disciples that where they were,
there he would be in the midst of
them. He spoke of a home he had
gone to prepare and of coming to take
them to it. Enframe this as one may,
the picture is the same—reunion with
the loved ones gone. You come home
from a trip abroad. As you draw near
the pier the hands of loved ones wave
to you, the steamer ties up to her
wharf and you are again in the arms
of those so dea/ So it is at death.
You have been long away from those |
at. home, but the vessel that has car- j
ried you—your body—ties up some
day to the little green wharf on some |

joices.
In city and country; in art-domed

monious cadence, sometimes soft and
low, and, then again, in accelerated
movement, the glad tidings of Easter-
tide, with its message of the day and
to the day's toilers. "Christ is risen!"
So man must ever seek to rise
superior to the destructive forces
around him. He must measure up
to his ideal if he would escape the
debasement wrought by the domi-
nance of his lower self. In no other
way can he expect to live the ideal
j life. His inspiration and ideal are
found in Christ. His entrance as an
! amateur into the Christian life is
but indicative of his growth into that
j of an artist. And in this progressive
I cumulative ascendancy he is con-
J scious of the leadership of One, who.
by one decisive stroke of matchless
power, in the resurrection from the
death, proved his Sonship, authority,
superiority and divinity.

Operations
These Three Women Tell How They
Escaped the Dreadful Ordeal of
Surgical Operations.
Hospitals are great and necessary institutions, but they
should be the last*resort for women who suffer with ills
peculiar to thfir sex. Many letters on file in the Pinkham
Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., prove that a great number of
women after they have been recommended to submit to an
operation have been made well by Lydia E. Pinkkam's
Vegetable Compound. Here are three such letters. All
sick women should read them.
Marinette, Wis—"I went to the doctor and
he told me I must have an operation for a female
trouble, and I hated to have it done as I had been
married cmly a short time. I would have terrible
pains and my hands and feet were cold all the
time. I took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound and was cured, and I feel better in every
way. I give you permission to publish my name
because I am so thankful that I feel w#ll again."
—Mrs- Fred Bernice, Marinette, Wis.
Detroit, Mich.—"When I first took Lydia E.
I^1 Pinkham's Vegetable CompouncLrwas so run down
with female troubles that I could not do anything, and our doctor
said I would have to undergo an operation. I could hardly walk
without help so when I read about the Vegetable Compound and what
it had done for others I thought I would try it. I got a bottle of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and a package of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Sanative Wash and used them according to directions.
They helped me and today I am able to do all my work and I am well."
—Mrs. Thos. Dwyer, 989 Milwaukee Ave., East, Detroit, Mich.
Bellevue, Pa.—u I suffered more than tongue can tell with terrible
bearing down pains and inflammation. I tried several doctors and
they all told me the same story; that I never could get well without
an operation and I just dreaded the thought of that. I also tried a
good many other medicines that were recommended to me and none
of them helped me until a friend ad-vised me to give Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound a trial. The first bottle helped, I kept
taking it and now I don't know what it is to be sick any more and I
am picking up in weight* I ara 20 years old and weigh 145 pounds.
It will be the greatest pleasure to me if I can have the oppor-
tunity to recommend it to any other suffering woman."—Miss Irene
Froelicher, 1923 Manhattan Sfc, North Side, Bellevue, Pa.

He took various medicines and tried doctors, but neither did him any good.
A friend advised him to try
