^Jig w a Farmer was freed from Misery, dr*£i. _ a A w m VkHMoam ORTHT of a hlgh recommendation than I can find **'m AwA words to expreBS.” mmWm ■ This is what Mr. f f I J. H. Flangman (of ^ Til Bberman, Tex.) m 1 1 a says of Doan’s Kidney Pills. He tells his experience in the following words: He says, “Sometime In Septem ber I was taken with a dull aching pain across the small of my back, directly over the kidneys. I paid small attention to this at first thinking it would pass ofT. But instead of getting better it became worse and in a short time the pain centered through my left hip and nain serosa down my left lep Kr aC as far as the knee." tu€ Sffldll Of This is precisely fhfi hast''what Wdney trou *y*tr l/aLA/im ble will do with the body. It does not al ways show Itself at first, but ap pears just In this way, when some unusual movement or action brings sharp pains and exhaustive aches, telling of sick kid neys. So Mr. Plang man’s experience bore this out. Continuing, he says: “X did not knew the cause of the trouble, but I am led to believe now that It was first brought about by Jumping in and out of the wagon and In some way I may have strained my back. “I was constantly growing worse,” he continues, “and I became very much alarmed about my condition. I knew that something had to be done or serious results were sure to follow. I went to a specialist here In Sherman, and under went a rigid examination.” Then he relates how the doctor told him that it was a serious case, but that he eould oure him for fifty dollars. However, necessity knows no law and Mr. Flangman paid half down and took the treatment and followed it faithful ly for four weeks. Naturally, he thought that he would soon be rid of the trouble, but In spite of tha doctoring he goes on to add, “I wa-s In such misery that It was almost Impossible for me to do my work.” “It was at this juncture that Doan's Kidney Pills came n • » to my notice and I ram w procured somefrom j Pi f the drug store of C. tell E. Craycroft. I wf used these plus according to direc tions and to my surprise I was con siderably relieved on the second day and in a short time completely cured," This is the uni versal experience of those who havo been sufferers from Kldney trouble and who have been for tunate enough to test the merits of Doan's Kidney Pills. | Thero is nothing wonderful or mag ical about this remedy. It simply does the work by direct action on the kid neys. Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kidneys only and this accounts for their speedy and certain action. Early Indications of kidney trouble come from two sources, the back and the bladder. The back becomes weak ar.d lame be cause the kidneys are sick, and re lief from backache can only be com plete when the kidneys are eet right. bladdeV show. ,b« WtOUM 1M the kidney* are out J'rfraina/f of order.

His heart had stopped beating for forty-five min utes, his respirations had ceased and his pupils were widely dilated. Sick opened the pericardium, massaged tho heart, and applied hot compresses to It while respiration was being per formed. In half an hour the heart was beating strongly and regularly, and life was resumed, the patient liv ing for twenty-seven hours, when he died in collapse. The case Is Illus trative of tho extreme value of direct cardiac massage in cases of sudden death.

The visitor said his name was John Hoop and that his home was la Minnesota, but that he arrived there recently tc fight Dr. Dowie and his hosts. “He is no prophet,” said Hoop; “be is s faker. The only real prophet is my self.’’ Peter and Paul the seconds are already evangelizing Brooklyn and drowning out the voice of the woman Messiah who opened shop two weeks ago. The Teacher Won. Hinton, Ky., Nov. 2.—For over two years two of the best physicians in this part of the State have been treat ing Mr. E. J. Thompson, a popular local school teacher, for Diabetes. They told him that but little could be done to help him. He made up his mind to try a new remedy called Dodd’s Kidney Pills, and says: “They saved me when the doctors held out no hope. I took In all about ten boxes. I will always praise Dodd's Kidney Pills for the great good they have done for me.’’ Many people, and some physicians, stlH persist in the belief that Diabetes is an incurable disease. Our teacher, Mr. Thompson, says it is curable, for Dodd’s Kidney Pills cured him after two good phtwicians had treated him tor two years without success, A remedy that will euro Diabetes will surely cure any case of Kidney Trouble. A practical Joke Is often so near downright meanness that there's no fun in it. i Some Good Shrubs. Those of our readers that have visit ed the Minnesota Agricultural College will remember the very effective ar rangements of shrubs between and around the principal buildings. The shrubs used on this campus are hardy In almost all portions of the middle West. On a recent visit to the col lege, the writer made a note of some of the most beautiful shrubs, which he felt he could recommend to readers of the Farmers’ Review. Below are some of them: Juneberry (Amelanchier). This Is a plant that has a variety of forms, some of them mere shrubs and some of them trees from twenty-five to forty feet high. In Its different varieties It grows in temperate climates around the world. The writer saw it growing on the banks of the Saskatchewan in British America, where it was known as the Saskatoon. It is there highly prized for Its follago and fruit. Sas katoon berries are very popular. To tho writer it seemed to be Identical with the wild "sugar plum” of Ntw England. The trees or shrubs bloom very early in the Bpring, and do well on a great variety of soils and sltua tlons. They also succeed well in dry climates. Caragana (Caragana arborescens). This is a shrub, or rather tree, from Siberia. The form mentioned above is the only one that grows to the size of a tree. It seems to be very hardy. It was seen growing in all parts of the Canadian Northwest and Beemed to he a general favorite. In some places where It was thriving the rain fall is only ten Inches a year. This would indicate that it can stand both cold and drouth. It belongs to the order legurainosae, and some mem bers of its immediate family are found from the Himalayan mountains in southern Asia to Siberia. Tartarian Maple (Acer tartarlca). This is a very beautiful maple, the leaves being long and deeply serrated, with a tint that draws attention to It in any group or trees, it is pronamy hardy In nearly all situations. Dogwood (CornuB sangunea). This Is one of a family of twenty growing m North America. This one (san gunea) has purple or dark red branch es, which lend a charm to the shrub at any time of year. The flowers come in May and June and are green ish-white, growing in dense cymes. The fruit when ripe is black. Buffalo Berry (Shepherdia argen tea). This is one of the three Ameri can plants belonging to Sheperdla. The leaves, as of the others, are sil very. The staminate and pistillate blossoms are borne on different trees. Both kinds are grown at the Minne sota college. The tree is prized most ly for its foliage, but its berries aro edible. We Lave seen these trees at Cornell University loaded with fruit In the fall. The fruit Is acid and edi ble. It may some day become popu lar. Cut-Leaf Elder (Sambucus Nigra aurea). This is quite commonly known as "Golden Elder” and is distinguished by its golden foliage, as is indicated by its varietal name "aurea.” It is very effective when planted in small masses. Red Berry Elder (Sambucus race mose). This is a variety that is being quite extensively planted. It is nearly identical with Sambucus pubens. The red fruit begins ripening in June. Golden spirea (Physocarpus Opull follus aurea). These are well adapted to shrubbery formations and are suit ed to almost any soli. The leaves of this variety are bright yellow at first, but gradually change to a golden bronzy yellow. Sheepberry (Viburnum Lentago) This is a shrub or small tree that fre quently attains a height of thirty feet. It holds Its fruit over the winter till spring. This fruit is bluish-black, with quite a bloom upon it, and helps add to the beauty of the landscape in which it 1b found. Garland Syringa (Philadelphus cor onarius), known also as the Mock Orange. The flowers are creamy white and very fragrant. Individuality in Plants. The whole tendency of modern plant breeding, as we have seen, Is to be gin with a plant because It has indi vidual merit rather than because it represents a particular variety. That Is, we are constantly giving greater attention to Individuality In plants. This the animal breeder has always done. If no two Cuthbert raspberry bushes and no two early Crawford peach trees are alike, why not propa gate from those that are best? 1 have an orchard of Crawford peaches, all purchased from one of the best and most reliable nurserymen, but I have at least twenty different kinds of Crawfords, some of them practically worthless. If I were to plant anothei Crawford orchard, I should want ti know what trees the buds were taken from. If I were to propagate India criminately from my own orchard, persons to whom I should sell the :rees would probably say either that 'he stock was "mixed” or that the Crawford had run out. Now, I admit that the stock would have been *mixed” and yet every tree be a Crawford. Suppose, now, that I should propagate only from the very best trees, what then would likely be the -esult? I believe the time has come when the nurseryman must cease to propagate Indiscriminately from stock merely because it belongs to a given variety. He should propagate only from stock or trees that he knows to have direct merit.—Prof. L. H. Bailey.

While many In the past have been, some In the present are and a few In the future will be born to be "owned” by employers because they are lack ing in financial Intelligence and there fore are commercial children, yet the best employer Is the buslnessllke-in-all things person, and the best employe is the one who works for the employer the same as the employer works for the customer. The Ideal employe Is not an em ploye In the sense that word Is used, but a seller of time, skill and earnest ness, and really becomes a partner on a salary and an annual dividend de pendent on conditions. Many employes remain longer wnn some firms and become more success ful than some partners. Where an employer In place of increasing an employe’s salary has given the em ploye an annual ram dependent on work and profits the plan has been so successful that In some cases em ployes have asked for a reduction In salary and an Increase In the annual. The best employe works for the em ployer at whatsoever with a concen trated energy. In place of seeking other places, other places are seeking this employe. Such employes never think about "getting In line,’’ because they are in line and know that to get odt of line Is to murder thei; own ability, which is their stock In trade. They do as they would be done by. They "speak well,’’ “think well” and “stand by” their employer. What interest in a firm does nn em ploye have who draws a salary of nlno dollars a week? That menns an Investment of over nine thousand dol lars at five per cent interest. If it had not been for brains, money pnd hard work of others what would an em ploye have to do to earn nine dollars? I know of a case where an office boy gets a salary larger than the income of a man and his wife and a grown-up son with a ter. thounand-dollar Invest ment. The office boy is bright and de voted to his work, but he does not work very hard, while the three peo ple mentioned do work very hard. The good side for the three hard workers is that they respect their money and make dimes do the work of dollars. For all I know that office boy makes good use of his money. I know that some do not, and you know that a large part of many easy incomes Is spent to the Injury of the owner. But this special boy may be caring for a mother and sister or educating the brother or helping his father get out of debt. It Is for our good to think well and hope better and be cheerful and constructive. Everybody Blunders. Leaders and followeds, teachers and students, employer, employe, custom er and visitor, all make mistakes, and some of the mistakes are so mutually expensive that all can very well afford to unite in fighting inaccuracies which do no one any good and every person harm. GAIN SOME EVERY DAY. Though we may know everything to be known about our work we will con tinue to make mistakes unless we keep clear headed, earnest, strong and knowing more about ourselves every day. Any kind of valuable information on any kind of a useful subject will help some one somewhere, at sometime, to become more accurate. The every day easy errors are due to discontinued study, lack of self control, indiiTerence. poor memory and wandering thoughts. The growing of greater ability is more useful to the employes than to the employers, but it is of sufficient interest to the employers to have them encourage the collection and exchange of information on such subjects as have been mentioned. When we read, think or work we should try to secure useful thoughts for others. While it is claimed that customers make three times as many errors as employes, the desire for greater accur acy should not be diminished among tho employes on that account SICKNESS * AND YOUTH. All but health! Friends, money, schooling, opportunity, yet discourag ed and a sufferer. The young person with poor health has the sympathy of the writer be cause twenty years ago he was in the same condition. There is an age in one’s growth where depression of life’s forces puts one beyond the influence of drugs, travel, recreation and the help of friends. Should a little strength be gathered and hope return, unconscious careless ness wastes the strength and scatters the hope, till time comes when this temporary improvement has been se cured and lost so many times, it is looked upon with doubt whenever it returns. The encouraging and educating of a young person with continued poor health is a department in personal sci ence. How to think in time to save strength Is mental preventive medi cine. How to grow a substantial en thusiasm that will not be displaced by any common emotion or temptation, is a Rtudy in self-control. This column will take these subjects up again and again if any interest is shown by the readers. The strong are otien puzzled to know how to encour age the discouraged and the sick may wonder how to use the time that Is so useless, so that they may hasten the day of strength and cheer. What would you like to know? Ask a speci fic question. What do you know on this subject others may long to poss ess? MENTAL OCCUPATION. At thirty-five he had money and honors but lost them. For twenty years he lived a very simple and wan dering or Inactive life. During the last five years he has been picking up and now has >25,000 with a good posi tion and an income of several thou sand a year. A few days ago I called upon him. He has an unusually com fortable office. He had boon reading how successful men eat and he told me that they were reported to eat anything they came across, not paying any attention to their stomach, but all of them were busy at some kind of . work. His observation had been that when a man stopped work he soon went to pieces; that systematic thought and exercise were necessary for continued health. A mechanic, who has a little shop he has run for many years, Is some times tempted to close it because it pays him so little. My advice to him has always been that he could afford to run It for his health. Were he to stop his work he would lose his digee tlve power and then his energy. He cannot do the heavy work he did thirty years ago, but at sixty-seven he is In better health than he waa at torty-flve. I have often thought of the story of the butcher who had made sufficient 'money upon which to retire. He sold his shop and soon became miserable. His wife missed him day by day and became suspicious. Upon lnvestlgfr tlon she discovered that he was work ing for another butcher in a nearby town. Would you live better and longer— then push some useful work as lonj as you live. • ■ II .1 " —. ■ ■ I STUCK STAMPS. II I The boyi! have been told that they were to be written up. They are running a retail store, andi are honest, hard-headed fellows. But they have a few things to learn'.' Their success is almost positive be cause they take a suggestion good naturedly and are willing to profit by others' hints. They are in business for money, hon estly if they can get it so. and “close up shop” is not honestly obtainable. • They are weak on pipes. Both of them like to get in the rear of the store and pull their old tobacco stove. Smoking is their only vice that I know but they are losing money by it, more money than they put into pipeB and tobacco. That is enough in that direction. About stuck stamps: They got an or der by mail and the distant customer put in about 200 postage stamps. The weather was damp and hot and when the boys got the order the stamps were very friendly. The post oflice would not exchange good ones for them so the stuck ones were sent back. They did not again hear from that customer and the chances are that they never will. Now, there is a man near them who does more business in one day than they do In six months and his mall clerks never send back stuck stamps. They soak them apart, dry and use them. lo the business world, to have a growing trade and please the various kinds of people, one must do his own duties well and often do the work that belongs to others. A good busi ness man does more than his part, and does It cheerfully.
