A Society Leader and Club Woman of
Kansas City Writes to Thank
Doan’s Kidney Pill* for a Quick
Cure.
Miss Nellie Darts, of 1216 Michigan
Ave., Kansas City, Mo., society leader
and club wo-.an,
writes: “I can
not say too much
in praise of
Doan’s Kidney
Pills, for they ef
, fected a complete
■ cure in a very
'short time when
1 was suffering
from kidney troubles brought on by a
-x cold. I had severe pains in the back
.A and sick headaches, and felt miserable
M all over. A few boxes of Doan's Kid
ney Pills made we a well woman,
[without an ache or pain, and I feel
compelled to recommend this reliable
remedy.”

Blue Light for Inflammation.
The effect of bhie light in reduc

skin, has been shown by several re
cent researches.
Every housekeeper should know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but* because
each package contains 16 oz.—one full
pound—while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in %-pound pack
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you a
12-oz. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let
ters and figures "16 ozs.” Demand
Defiance and save much time and
mo^ey and the annoyance of the iron
nicking. Defiance never sticks.

Refreshments in Church.
Family pews were introduced at the
beginning of the seventeenth century.
Some of these had a table and fire
place. also curtains and window
blinds, so as to secure the utmost
privacy. This led to abuses. In
some of the closed pews card playing
was not uncommon and the tedium of
a long service was sometimes relieved

Old Man’s Secret.
Alpena, Mich., Sept. 5 (Special).—
Seventy-five years of age but hale
and hearty is Mr. Jerome K. Four
nier of this place, and to those who
ask the secret of his splendid health
he gives the good advice “Use Dodd’s
Kidney Pills.”
When asked for his reason for s«
strongly recommending the Great
American Kidney Remedy, Mr. Four«
nier related the following experience:
“I recommend Dodd’s Kidney
Pills because they cured me of Dia
betes. I suffered with my kidneys
for a. long time and suffered terribly
from those Urinary Troubles that are
so general among aged people.
“Then I started to use Dodd’s Kid
ney Pills and eight boxes of them
cured my kidneys, regulated my wa
ter and made me feel like a hearty
young man.”
Dodd's Kidney Piils make the old
feel young because they make sound
kidneys. Sound kidneys mean health
and health is the other name for
youth.
Making It Emphatic.
Concerning a certain archdeacon in
Ine English church a tale of modesty
is told. He forbade one of his friends
to call him “doctor,” saying, “If you
call me doctor I will do the same for
you.” “Oh, but you can’t,” replied
the other. “I am not a doctor.” “You
soon will be,” was the answer. “I’ll
! be- if I am,” came the retort.

When Your Grocer Says
he does not have Defiance Starch, you
may be sure he is afraid to keep it un

IS CRIME INCREASING? I JAPAN’S EMPEROR.
Whenever a crime of unusual turpi
tude is committed, and particularly
whenever a number of such forbid
ding events occur in quick succession,
we hear much about the “epidemic of i
crime,” accompanied by lugubrious !
comment to the effect that wickedness i
is increasing, that it is outrunning !
the growth of population, that the j
country is rapidly degenerating. It :
has become the settled conviction of
minds chronically indisposed to look
upon the sunny side of things that the
criminal population is increasing at ,
a more alarming rate than at any j
time in the country's history, yet no ,
prof is at hand to support this pessi
mistic view.
Penologists are awaiting trust- :
worthy and sufficiently comprehensive !
statistics on this interesting subject. :
Samuel J. Barrows, Commissioner for j
the United States on the Interna- ’
tional Prison Commission, declared in i
a paper published in 1903 that for
want of any comparative statistics in
the United States it is extremely dif
ficult to say whether criminals are in
creasing with reference to the popu
lation, inasmuch as so much depends
upon the activity of the police. Mr.
Barrows observes that as social rela
tions multiply the standard of pro
priety and good conduct and of social
protection is constantly raised, and
when new laws are rigidly enforced
“we may expect an increase for the
time being in the number of offenders
until society has adjusted itself to the
new requirements.”
It may be noted that the system of
news gathering has been brought to a
high pitch of efficiency in our day.
Every crime of importance occurring
almost anywhere in the country is im
mediately reported. We hear very
much more about crime than our for
bears did. The diligence of the re
porters and the news agencies creates
the impression that the world is
growing worse. The law-abiding
millions attract little attention.—
Philadelphia Ledger.
"
A CHANCE FOR PUBLICITY.
ff it were possible to compel the i
national committees to keep an accur
ate record of and publish a true ac
count of their expenditures for cam
paign purposes a work of the utmost
importance would be accomplished.
England has virtually eliminated the
bribery of voters in her parliament- i
ary elections by requiring that each |
candidate's campaign expenses shall ■
be recorded and made public.
If the campaign fund accounts were
made public, instead of being kept
secret, there would be no need to
“fry the fat” from corporations or
men. AH the money actually neces
sary for an honestly conducted cam
paign would be willingly contributed
by public spirited citizens of either
party. Only through publicity, full
and complete, will campaign funds j
cease to be corruption funds.—Phila
delphia Ledger.
FARMERS EAST AND WEST.
|
An Iowa farmer who was bred in
New England, after making a visit to
the old farm, remarks that he ob
serves an absence of the old-time
thrift and application that once exist
ed among the farmers of New Eng
land. He says they work 300 days a
vear in Iowa and that the New Eng
land farmer would have more “cash
money” if he would labor on his farm
at least one-third of each twenty-four
hours for at least nine months in the
months attend to the work of turning
year, and during the other three
the forests into fields. He admits that
the New England farmer can make
more dollars from an acre of corn
than they can in the west, but that
the western farmer makes it up by
having more acres under cultivation.
—Boston Globe.
CULTIVATE A HOBBY.
“Since the home woman is the in
dispensable woman, it is a pity she so
often allows herself to fail in her full
development and reward,” says an ed
itorial in Harper's Bazar. “She is apt
to be so unselfish and so conscientious
that she lets the four walls of home
narrow about her, and the simplest
remedy is to have at least one out
ride interest. The woman who takes
up one hobby, one charity, one line of
.work beyond her household cares,
and follows it steadily, will find that
!t brings freshness and power with it.
(t becomes both outlook and inflow
to her. And the woman with a hobby
grows old so slowly that she often
never grows old at all, but keeps to
the last that freshness of interest
which is the mark of youth.”
HUMANE EDUCATION. ^
The world is only half civilized,
while the majority of people look with
indifference on the overworked and
overladen horses. The horse whose
footsteps are beginning to totter with
age, yet still dragging heavy burdens;
the horse whose hopeless eyes and
prominent bones tell that he is al
ways hungry; the cat crying for food
»n the home where there is plenty,
and turned off with a few miserable
scraps that only acute hunger could
force any animal to eat; the starved,
deserted cat; the kitten dropped in
the streets; the faithful dog deprived
of liberty and miserably cared for;
the butterfly struggling with the cruel
pin that fastens it to the wall; the
half-crushed toad by the wayside; the
bird lamenting for his stolen nest;
the dead bird murdered for sake of
weak and vain women—all these sad
sights may be seen every day. The
law does not reach them, for it is
only cases of extreme cruelty that can
be punished, and who can begin to
estimate' the immense amount of suf
fering that constantly goes unpun
ished?—Our Four-footed Friends.
Very few people have ever known
the emperor of Japan closely. He
must be undergoing something of an
evolution, for theoretically he is de
signed us a national figurehead rather
than as a natural ruler. The present
crisis must have brought him out as
never before.
The English sometimes date their
pedigrees back to the conqueror with
a certain pride. But Mutsuhito-tenwo,
emperor of Japan, is the present rep
resentative of the oldest royal dynas
ty extant. He is the 121st emperor of
his dynasty, which dates back in an
unbroken line 2,555 years. He is the
direct descendant of Ginmu, the “di
vine conqueror,” who, according to
Japanese mythology, “descended from
heaven on the white bird of the
clouds.”
Lp to the opening of the present
war the Japanese always carried the
Oriental notion that their emperor
should maintain a certain seclusion
appropriate to his position. The fact
that he was hardly known personally
to his own people made him, however,
more free to go among them incog
nito, which he is said to have done
extensively.
In the emperor's reign the bands of
feudalism that bound Japan to the
middle ages have been broken. He
granted a constitution voluntarily.
Literature, science and industry were
encouraged. It was only the remark
able advancement in the reign of Mut
suhito that made it possible for Ori
ental Japan to be equal to the task
of a possible successful war with
Russia.
War is costly, but it often lends the
most powerful stimulus to advance
ment. Japan has made more prog
rcss within a few years than other
Oriental nations have accomplished
in centuries.—Boston Globe.
SPORT AS A PEACEMAKER.
International sporting events are oi
immense value in promoting good feel
ing between neighboring peoples. Men
are like boys in that respect; good
playmates seldom become very bittei
enemies. Orientals break bread to
gether and are thereby debarred from
lifting their hands against each other
Occidentals break "records” in friend
ly competition, with a like effect.
The Lipton races for the America’s
Cup have been great promoters of the
Anglo-American “entente.” They do
not, of course, decide the question foi
statesmen; but they incline the com
mon people—who are the rules of both
nations—toward a friendly policy.
The automobile races between the
French and the German chauffeurs
have also been having an undoubted
effect in bringing those two peoples
together.
King Sport is a peaceful Prince.
Friendly sporting clubs can do quite
as much for the world's peace as so
many peace societies with their sol
emn resolutions and their lurid defini
tions of war. Peoples who visit each
other as competing athletes and who
entertain each other so generously
that the visiting club never has quite
a fair chance for the trophy, can with
the utmost difficulty be induced to go
gunning for each other in deadly earn
est.
The Sportsman's Cup is the modern
substitute for the pipe of peace.—
Montreal Herald.
RUSSIA SHOULD RECALL HIS
TORY.
Few, if any. incidents in her history
have reflected more credit upon Rus
sia than her declaration of neutral
rights, in 1780, which led to the for
mation of the first armed neutrality.
It is true that that declaration wa‘s
formerly, perhaps first, made by Fred
erick the Great of Prussia, and that
from him it was carried to Russia and
suggested to the Russian empress by
France. But Russia has always had
the popular credit of it, and it would
seem ungracious to try to rob her of
it. Rather is it profitable to recall
that in that famous declaration Russia
limited the list of contraband articles
to the items of arms and ammunition
and sulphur. Nay, more. The imme
diate provocation of that act of Rus
sia’s was Spain’s seizure of two Rus
sian vessels laden with foodstuffs!
It would be a strange turn about for
Russia now to repudiate the principles
of her famous declaration of neutral
rights and herself to approve and com
mit the very acts against which it
was a protest and a prohibition. In
1870 she organized an armed neutral
ity to uphold the principle that food
was not contraband of war. Can it be
that in 1904 she will set herself
against all the world by declaring it
is contraband of war? In a century
and a quarter has the world, in her
opinion, relapsed so far toward bar
barism?—New York Tribune.
THE BEST BRAIN WINS.
The Japanese are well-informed
and wait steadily with wonderful self
control until their preparations for
the grand attack are quite complete.
It is in brain that they beat the Rus
sians, whose soldiers die in heaps
with all their old heroism, and who
suffer less in morale from defeat than
more mobile or better-commanded
troops. They are there to die for the
Czar, and they do their duty with a
splendid unflinchingness which rival?
that of the Japanese.—London Spec
tator.
GOOD SAILORS FROM THE WEST
The recruiting service of the navy
is getting plenty of desirable youn$
men of American birth just now
especially from the west, and it is a
singular fact that a western lac
makes a good sailor, though he may
never have seen salt water before he
joined his ship or arrived at the train
ing station. But the quality is in the
bicod of the race and a few genera
tions passed on the prairies does not
eliminate it.—New York Press.
Most Spoken Languages.
There are 382,000,000 Chinese speak
ing the same language, making Chi
’ nese the most spoken language. There
ere so many dialects which are entire
! ly different that they seem scarcely
to belong to the same tongue. The in
habitants of Mongolia and Thibet can
; barely understand the dialect of the
people in Pekin. Putting Chinese
aside, the most spoken languages are
as follows, in millions; English, 120;
German, 70; Russian, CS; Spanish, 44;
Portuguese, 22.

Smallest Monarchy on Earth.
The sovereign who reigns over the
smallest monarchy in the world is the
king of Cocos, a group of islands near
Sumatra. These islands were dis
: covered about 300 years ago by the
j captain of the Keeling, but were com
I paratively little known till 1825. When
Mr. Ross, an Englishman, visited them
he was struck by Aeir beauty and
took up his abode there. It is his
grandson, George Ross, who now
holds sway over the Cocos.
Churches on Bridges.
The custom of building churches on
bridges was common a hundred years
and more ago. Several of these quaint
old buildings are still left in Europe. |
j The Chapel of Our Lady still stands
on the bridge which spans the Don at ;
Rotterdam. The little chapel was j
i built in the fifteenth century and was ;
; restored about a hundred years ago.
For several years, however, it has
! been used as a tobacco shop.
Keeping Nervous System Healthy.
As the nervous system exercises
great power on ail the functions of
I the body, it ought to be kept in a
healthy condition by regular mental
j work and judicious occupations. The
fear often expressed that steady men
| tal work is llkeiy to wear out the .
brain too soon is unfounded. The wear- j
ing theory is wrong, as well for men
tal as physical work, both of which
i may be continued in old age.

W ® Fibroid Tumors Cured. W
A distressing case of Fibroid Tumor,
which baffled the skill of Boston doctors.
Mrs. Hayes, ot Boston, Mass., in
the following letter tells how she was
cured, after everything else failed, by
Lydia E* Pinkham's Vegetable Compound*
Mrs. Hayes’ First Letter Appealing to Mrs. Pinkham for Helps
“Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—I have been under Boston doctors’ treat
ment for a long time without any relief. They tell me I have a fibroid
tumor. I cannot sit down without great pain, and the soreness extends
up my spine. I have bearing-down pains both back and front. My ab
domen is sw ollen, and I have had flowing spells for three years. My ap
petite ^is not good. I cannot walk or be on my feet for any length of fimo
“The symptoms of Fibroid Tumor given in your little book ac
curately describe my case, so I write to vou for advice.”—(Signed) Mrs.
E. F. Hayes, 252 Dudley St., (Roxbury) Dos ton, Mass.
Note the result of Mrs. Pinkham’s advice—al
though she advised Mrs. Hayes, of Boston, to take
her medicine—which she knew would help her —
her letter contained a mass of additional instruc
tions as to treatment, all of which helped to bring
about the happy result.
“Dear 31 rs. Pinkham: —Sometime ago I wrote to you describ
ing my symptoms and asked your advice. You replied, and I followed
all your directions carefuliy, and to-day I am a well woman.
“ The use of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound entirely
expelled the tumor and strengthened my whole system. I can walk
miles now.
“Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is worth five dol
lars a drop. I advise all women who are afflicted with tumors or
female trouble of any kind to give it a faithful trial.”—(Signed) Mtm.
E. F. Hayes, 252 Dudley St., (Roxbury) Boston, Mass.
Mountains of gold could not purchase such testimony — or take
the place of the health and happiness which Lydia E. 1’inkham’s
Vegetable Compound brought to Mrs. Ilaycs.
Such testimony should be accepted by all women as convincing
evidence that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound stands
without a peer as a remedy for all the distressing ills', of women; all
ovarian troubles; tumors; inflammations; ulceration, falling and dis- i
placements of the womb; backache; irregular, suppressed or painful
menstruation. Surely the volume and character of the testimonial let
ters we are daily printing in the newspapers can leave no room for doubt.
Mrs. Hayes at her above address will gladly answer any letter*
which sick women may write for fuller information about her illness.
Her gratitude to Mrs. Pinkham and Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound is so genuine and heartfelt that she thinks no trouble is too
great for her to take in return for her health and happiness.
Truly is it said that it is Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound that is curing so many women, and no other medicine; don’t for
get this when some druggist wants to sell you something else.
