She was mar ried in Plattsmouth June 2, 1898 to Charles W." Stoehr and since their marriage they have made their home on the farm near this city and have reared a family of six children, who with the grief stricken husband and father remain to mourn the death of this good woman, Elmer, Verna, Clif ford, Carl, Leonard and Theodore, are the living children and all reside at home."

TANLAG IS WORTH WEIGHT III GOLD Weaver Says Wife Gained Forty founds as a Result of Tak ' ing Tarilac. "If everybody only knew what a blessing Tanlac has been to my wife they'd say as I do that it is worth its weight in gold," said Edward Weav er, of 700 Ninth St., Lincoln, Neb. "For eighteen years," he contin ued, "my wife has been a terrible sufferer and- had gotten so she was unable to do any of her housework. She was so nervous that the least little noise would upset her and she suffered dreadfully from rheumatic pains all over her body. She had no appetite and her stomach was so weak she had to live on the light est kind of diet. She had awful headaches and her life was one un broken period of suffering. Some times she would have sinking spells, when it looked as though she would go out. "Her recovery through the use of Tanlac has been almost like a mir- i acle, for she has gained all of forty pounds in weight and looks like a different person. Her appetite re turned while she was taking her first bottle, and it wasn't long be fore she could eat just anything, and then she began to pick up in strength and weight. 'The pain she had suffered from and her nervous ness are entirely gone and she now sleeps like a child every night. She says she is feeling well and she cer tainly looks it, and I can't praise Tanlac enough for what it has done for her." Tanlac is sold in Plattsmouth by F. G.

A businesslike Answer to a businesslike Question THIRTY denominations cooperating in the Inter church World Movement have budgeted their needs. No business could have done it 'more scientifi cally. They have united to prevent the possibility of duplica tion or waste. At least a million dollars will be saved by the fact that thirty individual campaigns are joined in ona united effort. Each denomination has arranged its budget under sis main heads : - ' IFOR THE CHURCH'S WORK AT HOME. A score of item come under this hemi. Consider only one. Five and a half million people in the United States cannot even read and write the English language. Who is to carry forward this vast work of Americanization if the churcb doe not? - 2 FOR HOSPITALS AND HOMES. Every yearthousandsof men and women seriously ill ore turned away from Church hospitals because of lack of room. The children's homes are compelled to turn away more children than they can receive. 3 FOR HIGHER EDUCATION. Of the 450,000 American students in institutions of higher irrad;. one half are in institutions founded and . support e J by the Churches. Many of these institutions have had no great endowment campaigns, but their needs are just as pressing as the needs of larger schools; and you have only to read their list of alum ni and alumnae to measurethe value of their contribution to America. 4 FOR RELIGIOUS TRAINING. At least 12.000,0OOchildren and young people under 25 years of age are en tering American life without any retigioustraining at all. Remember ing the faith of Washington and Lincoln, do you think that America will continue to produce Washing ton and Lincolns if faith dies out of the hearts of its youth? 5 FOR THE CHURCH'S WORK ABROAD. Influenza came first from the Orient thirty years ago; nearly all plagues are Oriental plagues. So long as China has only one physician to every 400.000 people the Orient will continue to be a menace. So long as one-third of the babies of India die before their sec ond year our own babies are not safe. A Christian doctor or teacher sent abroad is working for America as truly as though be worked at home. 6 PREACHERS SALARIES. The preacher is called the "forgotten man." and well he may be. Eight out of ten preachers are paid less than $20 a week I Each denomination has its own detailed budget, and will administer its own funds. Your pastor has copies of the budget: examine them for yourself. In the week of April 25th-May 2nd you will be given your opportunity to help. You can 'do it with the full satisfaction of know ing that every dollar of your gift has its post assigned to it in advance. Every dollar for better Arfierica and a better world. When your church calls on you give and give with your heart as well as your pocket-book.
