Plattsmouth, Nebraska Jl Yesterday was observed at the Meth odist church as Mother's day, and the spirit of love and admiration of moth er was made the keynote of the ser vices in the different Sunday school classes as well as at the morning wor ship hour. The choir at the morning service gave a special anthem which introduced verses of the dear oid sac red hymns which has so often been heard from the lips of the mothers in the years gone by, and these songs brought many tears to the eyes of the members of the congregation as mem ory brought back the scenes of other days. Preceding the sermon, Mrs. William Baird gave a short reading, "Mother" which was given in a very pleasing manner and was a beautiful and tender tribute to motherhood. The pastor, Rev. Druliner took as his sub ject, "Motherhood," which was a very eloquent and pleasing sermon and ex pressed in beautiful language the love that a mother holds upon those near est eo her; of the faith and love that she lavishes upon her family and of the struggle that is made to make the lives of those near her more like the life of the Master. There was a large number present at the service w-hich was very enjoyable throughout. A Symbol of Health. The Pythagorians of Ancient Greece ate simple food, practiced temperance and purity. As a badge they used the five pointed star which they regarded as a symbol of health. A red five pointed star appears on each package of Chamberlain's Tablets, and still fulfils its ancient mission as a symbol of health. If you are troubled with indigestion, biliousness or constipa tion, get a package of these tablets from your druggist. You will be sur prised at the quick relief which they afford.
