Louis, 111, "i was in' a serious condition with kidney trouble; my feet and ankles were terribly swollen and tho kidney secretions caused agony in passage. I had ter rible rheumatic pains and often got so dizzy I dared not walk for fear of falling. 1 felt as if I would go frantic. I frrnw wpnlr aa a lafiv and often had to grasp something to keep from falling. My nerves wero all unstrung and the least noise startled me. Nothing benefited me and I was discouraged. .A neighbor happened to recommend Doan's Kidney rills and I began using them.

I can(glvo you no better Interpreta tion of the character of French woman hood than to nttempt to visunllzc what will always remain In my memory ns the most touching sight I hnve yet seen In the war, Isaac F. Marcosson writes in tho Saturday Evening Post. It was in the devastated region where tho Ilun had left n troll of ruined towns, blnckcncd forests and despoiled land in his wnkc. I was on my way hack from tho front, chilled and depressed by tho horizon of waste that hemmed mo in. Suddenly I heard, a steady hammering a strange sound it wns in tho midst of such desolation and no loneliness Is quite so utter ns tho solltudo of tho ravaged places. I stopped my car, got out and walked toward n dilapidated house the only structure with four walls that remained in what was onco a thriving hnuilct. When I reached tho spot this is what I saw. A woman stood at an Improvised an vil, beating out n horseshoe. Her hus band, as I learned, had been a black smith. He had fallen In bnttlo nnd 6ho woro his uniform. A child played at her feet while tho sparks flow up ward. All she had In tho world, savo this mlto of humanity nnd the ruins of her home, had been wiped out by tho war. Even the roof above her head was wrecked. Tot she kept to tho task that had onco sustained her. Between the strokes of her hammer I could hear the boom of tho far awny guns, sounding like tho doom notes In the last act of "Alda." It was n thrill ing nnd unforgettable contrast. Tho woman of that rudo forge was the heroic Incarnation of dennnt will the symbol of her sex. Some great artist might have painted the sccno nnd made it tho companion picture of the great ennvns that depicts Joun of Arc wnlklng with her vision In tho little churchynrd nt Domremy. Theso two daughters of Franco nro of tho same Immortal sisterhood. Writers Are Queer Fish'. In an article which Emerson Hough', tho great novelist, has written for tho American Magazine, he says: "At one time It became necessary In our household to discharge a largo blond person who had never been any thing but an alien enemy to our dishes nnd digestions. As she departed, full of wrath, Goosta turned at tho door nnd remarked : "'Veil, ay hope you get better girl ns may, ma'am 1 Ay lak youse veil enough; but your hoosbnn, liny ess somehow kveer.' "Perhaps Goosta was right. I make no doubt that many believe that any writing man Is somehow queer. I be lieve my wife a strictly competent human being who keeps mo jumping through hoops Is" of the same belief. It looks strnngo to see n strong man, who would have mnde a good black smith, sit around with no menns of support except a typewriter and a pleco of paper. "Yes, perhaps Goosta was right. For Instance, I have two places where I work: One my home office nnd one my downtown office. I do copy nt the for mer and transact business nt the lat ter. On the desk nt each place Is n skull, which I Installed years ago as n corrective measure. Across tho fore head of each Is written tho ominous words intended to keep me from going fishing, 'Life Is short V" When Beards Were Taxed. In tho reign of Elizabeth every beard of a fortnight's growth was sub ject to a tax. Peter the Great, In 1705, Imposed a tax upon tho beards of tho Russian nobles of 100 rubles, while the common people's beard tax amounted to ono kopec. This tnx cnused much dissatisfaction, but In spite of this the Impost wns extended to St. Petersburg In 1714. The tnx on beards was confirmed by Catherine I in 1720, by Peter II in 1728, by Em press Anne in 1731, nnd In 1743 by tho Empress Elizabeth, it was ro pealed by Cathcrino n In 1702. In France a. beard tax was imposed upon tho clergy. The celebrated Duprat, lord high chancellor of France, was tho adviser of the measure, and a hull was published by the popo enjoining the clergy to shave their chins. Then n tnx wns levied by the king upon nil who wished to bo exempted from tho hnrsh decree. The bishop nnd others who could nfford the means pnld tho tnx, hut the poorer clergy wero obliged to yield 'nt tho point of tho razor.- London Tit-Bits. Wlro Splints for Wounds. A new kind of surgical splint In which gnlvnnlzed wire netting takes the place of wood has been put on tho market, says tho Popular Sclenco Monthly. Tho steel entering Into tho construction of this woven wire splint is so tempered thnt it can be molded by hand. Being gnlvnnlzed, the wlro Js sterilized nnd nt the snmo tlmo weld ed into n single piece that cannot fruy out nt looso ends. As it is porous, it allows a certain nmout of evaporation and air circula tion to tho dressings beneath, which wood or plaster does not. The splint comes rolled llko a bandage and Is lighter nnd less bulky than wooden fpllnts. A Leap Year Hint. "When wo got better acquainted," said he, "I shall call you by your first name." "All right," she rejoined. "And I dope our .acquaintance will reach tho nolnt whero my friends can call mr V your lost naioo." DOG A PROBLEM IN ENGLAND Diminishing Food Supply Makes Ca nine Industry Difficult One From War Standpoint. Tho British government Is wrestling with tho problem of what to do with dogs, in view of tho rapidly diminish ing stocks of food. It seems settled that the number of dogs Is to bo re duced. There arc hardly any dog bis cuits left, nnd no more will bo manu factured, as tho low grade Hour from which they nro niude Is wanted for tho textilo trades. Bonnr Law, chnnccllor of the exche quer, refused to Include n henvy tnx on dogs In his budget, which he In troduced iu tho last week of April. Ills friends said thnt such n tnx would kill dog-breeding us un Industry, and would work unequally between rich nnd poor. Tho poor man's dog would bo sacrificed, whllo tho pampered Pekinese would flourish. Now tho alternative proposal Is to prohibit the breeding of dogs during the war except under license. Tho ef fect of this would be to allow tho per pctuntlon of pedigree breeds, which have taken many years and lnrge sums of money to produce, nnd nlso useful dogs, like sheep dogs and army dogs. The breeding of mongrels nnd prob ably off purely fancy dogs would bo prohibited. There will bo no Interference with people who nlrendy have dogs.
