L*V,
“The wages of sin is death.”
Since the time older than the sins
of Babylon, older than the fall of
Sodom and Gomorrah, older than the
days when Christ coming from the
Mount of Olives and sitting in Judg-
ment uponv the man and woman
brought before Him by the vast mul-
titude, said: “Woman, go thy way and
sin no more,” the unsanctified love of
woman for some lecherous man has
smirched the stories of cities and of
natihns with scandals of foulness, and
stained the hands of men with the
blood of their fellowmen.
From the time the words, “Thou
shalt not” were graven on the tablets
of stone, on through the forty years of
wandering through the wilderness; on
through the days of Abraham and the
unfortunate Hagar; through the times
of David, the sweet singer of Israel,
with his wives and concubines; past
the times of all the Caesars, from Cal-
ligula to Julius, when the mighty An-
thony sacrificed honor, soul and coun-
try at Cleopatra’s shrine; through the
days of the barbarous Albert of early
England, and those of the Norman Wil-
liam; through the times of the lecher-
ous Henry the Eighth, into the courts
Of France and her Louis Fourteenth,
where the marriage vows became a
jest and woman’s virtue a by-word;
back to the times of Helen of Troy,
and on again through the time when
the priest-led Crusader met the fiery
Saracene; onward until the vows of
the clergy were as naught in the days
of Abelard and Helolse; the words,
"Thou Shalt Not,” have been blazon-
ed upon the dying brains of the ones
whose sins have found them out.
v From the time the ancient patri-
arch was confronted with his own sig-
net ring, placed by he himself in the
hand of the wronged widow of his
own son; from the time the beautiful
Egyptian felt the 3ting of the deadly
asp resting where had rested the head
of the recreant lover; from the time
the beautiful Lady Pompadour gasped
out her life in mortal agony, and when
the frail Anne Boleyn laid her slen-
der throat across the headsman’s
block, the same old, old almy has been
written again and again. '
Through all the years, one follow-
ing the other, until century has piled
upon century; from the^days when,
under the laws of the Meades and
Persians the guilty were stoned to
death; up to the present time, when
the seething flame of electric fluid
flashed through and seared the brain
of the betrayer of Avis Linnell; down
to yesterday when the rending bullets
from the gun of the outraged husband
flashed to eternity the soul of the com-
panion of his youth and the friend
of his mahhood, who had repaid that
friendship by forgetting the sanctity
of home, and, wrecking the life of the
friend, had blasted the life of the trust-
ing woinan—through all the years, in
letters, of fire, herring the gates of
the life beyond the grave, has stood
the words, “Thou Shalt Not.”
And, as it has been for nearly ten
thousand years, so it will be for ten
thousand times ten thousand more—
so it will be as long as the sun of day
shall shine and the stars of night
twinkle above this terrestrial sphere.
Though the bottom of the cup be al-
ways and forever filled with the bit-
ter dregs of eternal despair, sweet
waters will be surreptitiously drawn
and the goblet drained to the last poi-
soned drop, while clasping the form
of his Helen, his Cleopatra, his HeloiBe
or his Lady Jane, the man whose sin
has found him out will go before his
Maker with the commandment, “Thou
Shalt Not" burned upon, his brow as
indelibly as though it were the very
mark of Cain.
And the dark angel of Despair shall
brood with raven wings over the dy-
ing moments of the victim of the out-
raged husband, while the “woman who
lived, not wisely, but too well” shall
spend the remainder of her days on
earth a social outcast and a moral
leper.—Ardmore (Okla.) Weekly Ard-
morite.

Mrs. L. B. Thomas, Short Street,
Sulphur Springs, Texas, says:-“About
a year ago I suffered from kidney
trouble. My back pained me so badly
that I was obliged to take to my bed
and remain there for about a week-
Sharp swinges darted through me
when making the slightest move and
my kidney did not act right Head-
aches and a feeling of languor clung
to me. On my mother’s advice, I be-
gan taking Doan’s Kidney Pills. They
soon showed their effectiveness. The
contents of three boxes of Doan’s Kid-
ney Pills rid me of my trouble and I
have since recommended them to my
acquaintances.”

SURE IT WAS WEDNESDAY.
The lawyer was determined to dis-
credit the witness.
“Tou are positive this happened on
Wednesday?” he demanded.
“I am.”
“Sure it was Wednesday?”
"Yes.”
"Can’t be mistaken?”
“No.”
“Why couldn't it have been Thurs-
day or Tuesday? How is it that you
can fix this day so positive in your
mind?”
“Because,” answered the witness
with some spirit, "we had chicken that
day. Chicken day i3 Wednesday
