PS , s ' Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never Suspect It Applicants for Insurance Often Rejected. Judging from reports from druggists who sre constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that hns been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healipg influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its reninrk.tble record of success. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the as tonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are re jected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the Urge majority of those whoso applica tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. It is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium nnd large. However, if jou wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Hinghamton, N.

I'RIMARV TOriC-Dolne; Our Dest JUNIOR TOIMC-Dutics and Rewards INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC -Faithful Use of Our Abilities YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC -The Use or Neglect of Our Resources. This parable, like that of the ten virgins. Is associated with the Second Coming of Christ. In both Instances he unpropuredneHs for His coming on the part of the people Is exhibited. In that of the ten virgins their unreadi ness consisted In their failure of In ward llfe-ubi.cncc of the Holy Ghost. In this of the talents It consisted in their failure to properly Uhe the gifts which had been Intrusted to them. The first wns failure to watch; the second, failure lo work. I. The Distribution of the Talents (vv. 14, 15). 1. It wus n sovereign act. He called His own servants and distributed to them bis own money. The Ixrd did not consult us as to our gifts. 2. It wns nn Intelligent net. "Accord, lug to his several ability." The Uod who made us knows our ability to uso gifts, therefore has made the distribu tion upon that basis. The reason some hove greater gifts than others is due to the fact thnt they possess the ability to use them. 3. It was a purposeful act. The tal ents were given to be traded with. They were not given to be used for one's own guln and profit, but as stock In trade for the enrichment and glory of the Master. II. The Employment of the Talents (vv. 10-18). 1. All the servants recognized that the talents were not their own thnt they were responsible to the Lord for the use made of them. We are not re sponsible for the creation of gifts, but for the employment of such gifts as hnve been given to us. 2. Two servants used their talents. The live talented man put his to use and gained five more. The two tal ented ftnan put bis to use nnd gained two more. This shows that God's gifts can be Increased. The exercise of any gift Increases It. The faithful use of what we have In the place we ore will prepare us for greater usefulness nnd honor. 3. The one hid his talent. Tho fact that one possesses but one talent should not dlscouruge htm, but should mnke him strive hnrder. God sees not reward according to what we possess, but according to our faithfulness. The crime of the one talented man was not that he had but one talent, but thnt be hid the talent which the Lord guvo htm. III. The Accounting for the Talents (vv. 19-30). 1. Its certainty. There Is a day coming when ull must give an ac count of our stewardship. 2. The time. This will be at the coming of the Lord. If we hnve done well we shall, then hnve prulse. If we huve been unfaithful we sllnll then be cast out from the presence of the Lord. Watchfulness Is not Idleness. 3. The Judgments announced. (1) He ward of the faithful, (n) Prnlse "Well done." We all like to be praised. How blessed will It be to bear from Hie very lips of the Lord the word "well done!" (b) Promotion "Be thou ruler over many things." Promo tion Is desirable to nil. Much of that to .which we look forwurd In life Is the passing from lower to higher privi leges and positions. (c) ICn trance upon the Joy of the Lord. The five talented man and the two-talented man received the same prnlse nnd sume promotion. (2) Punishment ot tho faithless. The one-talented man lied when brought to account. The talent when dug up was not the sume us when It wus burled It wuj. not of the snme weight. Gifts unused are lost. The natural oyes lose their power If we live continually In darkness. This Is true spiritually. The one who ceuses to grow in knowledge and grace loses the capacity to grow, (a) Ilepronch he was called slothful and wicked. To be called Inzy Is a reproach which even the lazy man dislikes. (b) Stripped. The talent which was given to him was tuken from lilii). (c) Cast out. He wus condemned on his own ground. The very fact that he know the character of the Lord should have been un Incentive for him to have ex erted himself. Ills condition was bin own fault. In the day of accounts' there will be no excuse to be made. Fountain of Gladness. A kind heart Is a fountain of glad ness, making everything In Us vicin ity to freshen Into smiles.
