UNBEUEVERS

The Atheistic un
believer must be-
lieve there may be
design without a
designer, law with-
out Intelligent
cause. The Bible
in calling him a
fool draws his pic-
ture accurately, for
he must violate
the laws of his
mind in order to
say that there Is
no God. Savages in
their rudest state
do not say so.
They infer a great cause from the
great results that they see about them.
Their conceptions of God are crude
and false, but they are not fools.
These sons of nature allow their rea-
son to work, and though their minds
are full of superstitious fears caused
by ignorance, they see a God behind
the material universe as plainly as
they see the sun’ in the heavens. It re-
mains for the modern atheist, be ho
scientist or philosopher, to turn him-
self into an intellectual fool by predi-
cating of dead matter only what can
be predicated of intelligent mind.
The agnostic unbeliever must be-
lieve a theory against facts which
have been proved by competent wit-
nesses. His theory is that no one
can know God. The facts are that Sir
Isaac Newton, the mathematician,
said: “I know God.” AgaSslz, the
scientist, said: "I know God.” Kepler,
the astronomer, after tho discovery
of his great law, fell upon his knees
and exclaimed: "O God, I think thy
thoughts after thee.” Havelock, the
soldier, said: "I know God,” and
prayed to him daily. Gladstone, the
statesman, said: ”1 know God.” Abra-
ham Lincoln, the liberator, said: “I
know God,” and spent whole nights in
prayer to him. Thousands of lawyers,
merchants, judges and physicians
have declared that they know God.
Agnosticism must believe that these
competent, trustworthy witnesses are
deceivers or deceived.
Agnosticism evidently believes that
ignorance has a right to speak and in-
struct knowledge. When a man con-
fesses that he knows nothing, and can
know nothing on any subject, it be-
comes him to keep quiet on that sub-
ject, but agnosticism writes books and
magazine articles, parading its ig-
norance with intellectual pride. It has
established a sort of science of ig-
norance, and formed a blind man’s
club for the propagation of blindness.
Now, God has given us a text book
called the Bible, in which he has re-
vealed himself so clearly that all who
will may know him. When the ag-
nostic says: "I don’t know,” be sim-
ply proclaims the fact that he prefers
darkness to light; he turns away
from the sun that he may grope in the
dark cave of his own prejudice and
ignorance. If he has looked through
his telescope at the stars and through
his microscope at the flowers without
seeing God, he has simply established
the presumption that God will reveal
himself in some other way. When he
opens the Bible the first words he
reads are: "In the beginning God.”
He ought now to be glad that God has
revealed himself in a book, but he is
not glad, for his pet theory has been
destroyed.
The anti-Bible unbeliever shows a
credulity that Is truly marvelous. He
must admit that the Bible claims to
he inspired. "God said,” "Thus saith
the Lord,” rings through its pages.
He must admit also that the book was
written by bad men or by good men.
If good men wrote it, it is, of course,
inspired, for good men would not de-
The last years of life are the sweet-
est, and yet the most difficult to pro-
long. It is then that the greatest care
is exercised in maintaining bodily
health. But the chief care should al-
ways be with regard to the food you
eat and whether you are digesting it
properly. You should not allow your-
self to become constipated.
No doubt you have tried salts and
cathartic pills, purgative tablets, etc.,
and have come to the conclusion that
they are violent in action and do but
temporary good. Listen, then, to the
voice of experience with regard to a
wonderful and mild laxative, Dr. Cald-
well’s Syrup Pepsin. It is not new,
only we are trying to find new friends
for it.

READY FOR ANY CONTINGENCY
Second Wife Has Put on File Accurate
Record of "Mother's” Pos-
sessions.
An Atchison woman who married a
widower, and who is wise beyond her
time, has filed a most peculiar docu-
ment in tho courts. It is to this ef-
fect: "My husband's first wife left
two petticoats of cotton, and one of
wool, all badly worn; one old corset,
two pairs of hose, two house dresses,
three shirt waists, one dress skirt, a
thin gold ring, a hair switch, a gold
breastpin, one pair of house slippers
and a winter coat. I have had them
earefully itemized and sworn to be-
fore a notary and they now lie sealed
in the attic of our^ home. This docu-
ment goes on record to forestall any
further litigation from my stepchil-
dren for the possession of ‘mother’s
things.’ if at any time they want
‘mother’s things’ I will be glad to turn
the sealed box over to them.”—Lin-
coln State Journal.

LEWIS’ “SINGLE BINDER."
A hand-made cigar fresh from the
table, wrapped In foil, thus keeping
fresh until smoked. A fresh cigar
made of good tobacco la the Ideal
amoke. The old, well cured tobaccos,
used are so rich in quality that many
who formerly smoked 10c cigars now
smoke Lewis’ Single Binder Straight
5c. Lewis' Single Binder costs the
dealer some more than other Be cigars,
but the higher price enables this fac-
tory to use extra quality tobacco.
There are many imitations; don't be
fooled. There la no substitute! Tell
the dealer you want a Lewis "Single

Fighting Tuberculosis.
Three large fraternal orders are at
present conducting sanatoria for their
tuberculous members. Tho lloyal
League, the first order to take up this
form of work in the United States,
has a sanatorium at Black Mountain,
North Carolina. The Modern Wood-
men have recently opened a sanator-
ium at Colorado Springs, and Vue
Knights of Pythias, one at the East
Las-Vegas, New Mexico. The Royal
Arcanum and the Brotherhood of
American Yeomen will consider prop-
ositions at their coming grand coun-
cils for the erection of similar insti-
tutions.
The Cause of War.
The fair .young debutante was sur-
rounded by an admiring crowd of of-
ficers at the colonel's ball. Mamma
was standing near by, smiling compla-
cently at her daughter's social
cess. The discussion was over
quarrel of the day before between two
brother officers.
"What was the casus belli?” asked
the fair debutante.
"Maud!” exclaimed mamma in a
shocked voice, “llow often have I

Every mother of sons ought to keep

of adhesive plaster, a package of ear-

and some soft old linen. A fresh cut

by saying, "None of those taking part

Children Need Acting.
Rev. Perry Grant of New York

need, and is looking for the rich man
who will build a theater for children.
The purpose of such a theater, he says,
is educational and is in keeping with
the discoveries of Froebel, who knew
that play is an instinct implanted by
nature for educational purposes.

Don’t Poison Baby.
JTORTY YEARS AGO almost every mother thought her child must have
■ PAREGORIC or laudanum to make it deep. These drugs will produce
sleep, and A FEW DROPS TOO MANY will produce the SLEEP PROM WHICH
THERE IS NO WAKING. Many are the children who have been killed or
whose health has been ruined for life by paregoric, landannm and morphine, each
of which is a narcotio product of opium. Druggists are prohibited from selling
either of the narcotics named to children at all, or to anybody without labelling
them “ poison.” The definition of “ narcotio ” is: "A medicine which relieves pain,
and produces sleep, but which in poisonous doses produces stupor, coma, convulr
sions and death.The taste and smell of medicines containing opium are disguised,
and sold under the names of “Drops,” “Cordials,” “Soothing Syrups,” etc. Yon

Letters from Prominent Physicians
addressed to Chas. H. Fletcher.
Dr. J. W. Dinsdale, of Chicago, 111., says; “I use your Castoria and
advise Us use in all families where there are children.'*
Er. Alexander E. Miatie, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: “I have frequently
prescribed your Castoria and have found it a reliable and pleasant rem-
edy for children.”
Dr. J. S. Alexander, of Omaha, Neb., says; "A medicine bo valuable and
beneficial for children ns your Castoria Is, deserves the highest praiso. I
find it in use everywhere.”
Dr. J. A. McClellan, of Buffalo, N. V., says; "I havo frequently prescribed
your Castoria for children and always got good results. In fact I use
Castoria for my own children.”
Dr. J. W. Allen, of SL Louis, Mo., Bays: “I heartily endorse your Caa-
toria. I have frequently prescribed it In my medical practice, and have
always found it to do all that is claimed for it”
Dr. C. H. Clidden, of SL Taul, Minn., says: “My experience as a prac-
titioner with your Castoria has been highly satisfactory, and I consider it
an excellent remedy for tho young.”
Dr. II. D. Benner, of Philadelphia, Ta., says: “I have used your Cas-
toria as a purgative in the cases of children for years past with the most
happy effect, and fully endorse it as a safo remedy.’*
Dr. J. A. Boarman, of Kansas City, Mo., says: “Your Castoria Is a splen-
did remedy for children, known tho world over. I uso it in my practice
and have no hesitancy in recommending it for the complaints of infanta
and children.”
Dr. J. J. Mackey, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: “I consider your Castoria an
excellent preparation for children, being composed of reliable medicines
and pleasant to the taste. A good remedy, for all disturbances of the
digestive organs.”

If the unbeliever asserts that bad
men wrote it, then he must believe
that the book which has produced the
highest civilization on earth, and has
developed the noblest characters in
the world, was written by liars, who,
at the same time, denounced them-
selves unmercifully for their decep-
tion.
But, says the rationalistic unbe-
liever, God has given to man a reason
as guide. Yes, but does reason guide
man aright? Look at those monstrous
idols in pagan countries. Are they
images of the true God to whom men
without the Bible have been led by
their reason? Are they not, on the
other hand, reflections of the depravi-
ty of human nature into which man
has sunk by the aid of his reason,
which fell with his other faculties
when he sinned?
The anti-Christ unbeliever who re-
jects the deity of Jesus must believe,
if he accepts the Bible, that he
claimed to be divine, for he said:
"Before Abraham was 1 am.” "He that
bath seen me hath seen the Father,’
and "O Father, glorify thou me with
the glory which I had with thee be
fore the world was.” Now, all such
unbelievers admit that Jesus was a
good man. They praise him for his
stainless character. As an unbeliever
he must believe, too, that a good man
can at the same time be a hypocritical
deceiver. Jesus Christ was either
what he claimed to be, the Divine Son
of God, or he was a wicked deceiver.
There is no middle ground. To be-
lieve that he was good is to believe
that lie was God, unless we do vio-
lence to our reason by believing the
absurd proposition that a good man
can make a false claim.

This indigestion caused palpitation of
