Fix it now—why wait ’til to-
morrow ?
Waiting may only bring you
sorrow.
A car not working right may go
to smash,
And the smaller the job we do

There’s one thing all agree to,
I’m sure—
Prevention costs much less
than cure.

And comfort was theirs for the tak-
ing, and with comfort, no doubt, came
courage and strength and some meas-.
uro of wisdom for the trials when they
had to be faced again.
Most of us spend too much time in
taking pains and too little in taking
comfort. Martin Luther once advised
PLilip Melanchthon to give up man-
aging the universe and let the Al-
mighty God do it. An old colored
mammy, asked how she could be so
cheerful when she had no easy time
of it, replied,"Lor, chile. I wears the
world like a loose garment!"
. And so it is suggested for a Merry i

PAINS
QUIT COMING
"When I was a girl, I suf- "
ered periodically with ter-
rible pains in my back and
aides. Often I would bend
almost double with the in-
tense pain. This would
last for hours and I could
get no relief.
"I tried almost every-
thing that was recom-
mended to me, but found
nothing that wm-4 help
until X began taking
OarduL My mother
thought it would be
good for me, so she
got a bottle of Cardul
and started me taking
it X soon improved.
The bad spells quit
coming. I was soon

the same time the sun was
shining. Some ice was reported
Friday morning of last week.
Saturday was a disagreeable
day when a cold rain fell all day : .
and business men possibly took

and possibly not. Monday was
pretty with a cloudless sky, but -
it was cloudy Tuesday.
