FIRST KIDNEY PILL MADE.
THE ORIGINAL DISCOVERY.
THE ONLY GENUINE.
Wm. IT. Nrionnons. tlio well
known jeweler of West Main
Street, Wytheville, Va.f nays :
"Some four years ago an attack
of grip settled in my back, and
I have suffered off and on ever
since with a dull, heavy aching
across the small of inv hack,
always • more severe in the
morning. It was difficult for
me to stoop or straighten, and
if I sat down for any length of
time it was hard for me to
arise. I took two boxes of
Doan’s Kidney Pills, and the
dull, disagreeable aching left
mo.”
II. P>. McCarter of 201
Cherry Street, Portland, Ore
gon, inspector of freight cars
for the Transcontinental Com
pany, says: ‘I used Doan’s
Kidney Pills for backache and
other symptoms of kidney
trouble which bad annoyed me
for moDtlis. I think a cold
was responsible for the whole
trouble. It seemed to settle in
my kidneys. Doan’s Kidney
Pills rooted it out. It is several
months since I used them, aud
up to date there has been no
recurrence of tho trouble.”
i
Mrs. George Wallace, Jr.,
of Elmira. N. V., wife of
George Wallace, broker, of
West Water Street, ami living
at 007 Baldwin Stmt, gays:
“In March, 1HU7, I was cured
of kidney and bladder trouble
by Doan's Kidney Pills. My
physician said at that time that
iny life could be saved otily
by an operation. Night after
night I bad been kept awake
for hours at a time with ter
rible pain in my back, and the
secretions from the kidneys
were in as bail a stab; as pos
sible. I suffered w ith hemor
rhages frequently and wa9 in
a weak state. Four boxes of
Doan’s Kidney Pills cured me,
and I now gladly ret’ndorse the
remedy, because during the
time which has since elapsed,
nearly seven years, 1 have never
had the slightest sign of a
return of the trouble.’

Best Papa of All.
Walking home from school, the oth

the perfection and usefulness of their
respective fathers. "My father's the

tle girl; "he is a minister. He makes
people go to church.” "Mine is the
host.” piped another; "he's a doctor.
Hi makes sick people well so they
can go to church.” “Throe or four
more enlarged upon the benefit the
world derived from their fathers, when
finally a sweet, blue-eyed little girl
6aid: "My papa's the best of aTl. He’s

Quiet Reform.
Those interested in the fall elec
tions would do well to take a look at
an article in the November Every
body's if they are at all uncertain
what, a reform administration can ac
complish. In “Reform that Reforms"
Alfred Hodder tells specifically some
of the changes for the public good
that have been brought about in New
York during the present administra
tion—notably by the commissioners of
health and charities. The quiet re
l irms of which the public does not
hear are often the most significant—
the stopping of a leak, accomplished,
for example, by paying fifty cents of
the public money for a gallon of al
cohol in place of a former $5.75; the
rigid inspection of drugs and groceries
to chebk adulteration. Reform may
make its mistakes, but one is inclined
to think that these aro mistakes in an
uncommonly good direction, after con
sidering Mr. Hodder’s facts.

policeman did not know me. My

Bangs, Bangs, do you mane that Bangs

HIGH HONOR FCR WOMAN.
Miss Violet Oakley to Decorate New
Pennsylvania Capitol.
For the first time in the history of
'reerican art a woman is to be iunnst
cil with the mural decorations of a
great public building. When the new
capitol at Harrisburg, Pa., is finish
ed one of the most interesting e ights
the guides will have to show visitors
will lie a great frieze entitled "The
Romarce of the Founding of the
State.”
Violet Oakley is to be the creator of
this work. She returned from Europe
prepared to settle down to her task,
and in the quaint building at the Red
Rose inn, In Villanova, Pa., where she
has established her studio, is now pre
paring the designs for the panels.
The loom in the capitol which Miss
M7JJ VIOLET OAKLEy
Oakley Is to decorate Is 70 by 30 feet
and 10 feet high. The frieze, divided
into panels, is to be five feet in depth,
beginning eleven feet from the floor
The subject allows latitude for origi
nal treatment.
Miss Oakley is one of a trio of tal
ented women who form a colony at
Villanova. Her name is associated
with those of Miss Jessie Wilcox Smith
and Miss Elizabeth Shippen Green,
the three having leased the picturesque
old inn, which was once a famous
roadhouse, and made a workshop of
the barn at the rear of the main build
ing.
Each of the three has her special
vork, but Miss Oakley, unlike her
"ompanlous, has not confined herself
o illustration only. It is in mural de
sign and in stained glass work that
he excels. Her decorations in the
Church of All Angels in New York,
Paced her name among the leading
irtists in that line of work. The de
ign consisted of an altarpiece in mo
saic—a study of the Ascension—with
wo curving side pieces representing
he “Heavenly Hosts.”
Just how many years it will take to
■omplete the work Miss Oakley has no
dea. As a preliminary she went on a
our of Europe, visiting Assisi, Venice,
Naples, Rome and Florence, studying
he work of Italian masters of mural
lecorations. Then she went to Eng
and to olnain the historical (lata which
vas to be obtained there. At the Ken
ungton Museum, Oxford and else
rnere Miss Oakley found the neces
ary groundwork for the compositions
md then returned to her studio to be
lin her designs.
The young artist thus honored with
vork that none hut a master would
>e intrusted with was born in New
Vork, where she first started her les
ions at the Art League, working for
a while under Carroll Beckwith.

Dread Tale of a Letter.
A man in Hiawatha, Ivan., recently
received a letter addressed to him,
but instead of the name of the town
was a bar or so of music. The post
office officials had passed the letter
along until one was found who could
sing, and he sang the music and found
It to be a part of the song which lias
driven so many to the brink of an
early grave. The letter was then
sent at once to the man in the Kan
sas town.—New York Tribune.
Shoe Polish Explodes.

unusual capacity for combining num

their psychological peculiarities, hoi.
over, seem characteristic of most of
the known cases; an extraordinary
memory for numerical combinations,
and unnsual methods for grouping
numbers. That their ability is not
entirely the r< suit of special training
is attested by the early ago at which
the power is manife led. Titus, ct

problem, to find the product of doub

express'd In pounds, being a number
of 39 figures. Zcrah Colburn, at 9
years of age. gave at sight the factors
of .394,907,297, and in 20 seconds
found mentally the number of hours
in 1,811 years. Raising 991 to the
fifth power in thirteen operations, and
giving the product of any pair of two
figure numbers in 1 1-2 seconds, are
feats accomplished by Arthur Griffith,
who also memorized the squares of all
numbers up to 130 and the cubes up
to 100.
Birds That Blush.
An observer finds that some birds
blush. He writes: "We have a very
fine specimen of the blue and yellow
macaw which displays this trait—not
often, for he Is remarkably gcod-tem
pered—and the ‘blush’ is an invari
able sign of anger; so much so, that
we warn all friends that while his
cheeks remain white all attacks are
feigned and in play and can he disre
garded. yet if the 'danger signal'—
red—shows, to look out and keep out
of reach." The owner of a blue and
orange macaw says that its white,
parehment-llke face becomes bright
pink, especially above the beak, when
ever it is angry or excited.
For Human Wrecks.
This gospel lighthouse is at Coney
Island. In the midst of the liurly-hur

and other noisy engines of amuse
ments, is this church, little different
in architecture from the structures
which surround it. The "lighthouse"
adjoins the church and is a skeleton
tower rising to a height of sixty-five
feet above the sandy beach. The lan
tern at the sunmit of the tower is an
electric transparency on the four sides
of which are emblazoned nightly the
words "Jesus Saves.”
Equator Not a Perfect Circle.
A startling fact which has recently
been demonstrated Is that the equator
is not a perfect circle. If you could
drop a plumbline from Ireland
through to New Zealand, It would be
somewhat longer than another which
cut the earth at right angles to It.
The difference has not yet been as
certained with absolute accuracy.
Watch of Historic Interest.
Horace A. Moody of Cornwall, Vt.,
has a Swiss watch which was once
the property of his grandfather,
Joshua Stockwell, one of the pioneers
of Cornwall, who died in 1840. The
watch was carried in the Harrison
campaign of 1840 and again in the
Harrison campaign of 1888.

The fishing steamer Leander Wil
