During the World war a well-known. French publicist was invited to ad dress a large audience of children from the elementary schools of an American city. Walking quickly onto the stage, he commenced speaking in his own tongue, and then smiling at the bewil dered children,-he said, in perfect l?hg lish: “You do not understand me, cio you? There, my dear children, you have the root cause of this and nearly every other war.' Only through a lack of proper understanding of the point of view of other nations are wars pos sible.”—Christian Science Monitor. “Santos” Coffee From Sao Paulo. ‘ It is against the law now to label as “Java” coffee that does not come from Java or Sumatra. Real Mocha is grown In Arabia, and after the coffee became well known and very popular some unscrupulous dealers applied this name to coffee from other countries. Coffees frequently take their names from the ports from which they are shipped. The most widely used vari ety in this country is called “Santos,” after a port of Sao Paulo, the great coffee-producing state pf Brazil. Volcanoes in United States.

The Spanish peaks of Colo rado are also the remains uf ancient volcanoes. Most of these mountains have visible craters on their summits or on their sides. ^ Allowing Days of Grace. In tlie reign of Henry II the day first mentioned In each term of court was called “essoign day,” because the court then took the essolgns or ex cuses of those who did not appear according to the summons of the writs. I?ut as—by a custom traced by Piackstone to the Germans of the days of Tacitus—three days of grace were allowed every defendant In which to appear, the courts did not sit for the dispatch of business until the fourth day after that time. On the other hand, they continued to sit until the fourth day after the last return. The rule allowing days of grace in the United States was adopt ed from the English law. THROUGH WORK. How An O’Neill Citizen Found Free dom From Kidney Troubles. If you suffer from backache— From urinary disorders— Any curable disease of the kidneys, Use a tested kidney remedy. Doan’s Pills have been tested by thousands. O’Neill people testify. Ask your neighbor. Can you ask more convincing proof of merit? R. H. Mills, carpenter, O’Neill, says: “I gave a statement some time ago telling of my experience with Doan’s Pills and since recommending them I have had no further need of a kidney remedy. I still have a word of praise for Doan’s however, because of the very satisfactory relief they gave me from backache and lameness in my back that I had when my kidneys were in a disordered condition.” FOUR YEARS LATER, Mr. Mills said: “It has been ten years since I had need of a kidney remedy and 1 have been strong and healthy ever since Doan’s cured me.” Price 60c, at all dealers Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Pills—the same that Mr. Mills had.
