TIRED BACKS.
The kidneys have a great work to
Io in keeping the blood pure. When
they get out of order
it causes backache,
headaches, dizziness,
languor and distress
ing urinary troubles.
Keep the kidneys
well and all these
sufferings will be
saved you. Mrs. S. A.
Moore, proprietor ot
a restaurant at Wa
terville, Mo., says:
"Before using Doan's Kidney Pills I
suffered everything from kidney trou
bles for a year and a half. I had pain
In the back and head, and almost con
tinuous in the loins and felt weary all
the time. A few doses of Doan's Kid
ney Pills brought great relief, and I
kept on taking them until in a short
time I was cured. I think Doan's
Kidney Pills are wonderful."

HAD A FELLOW FEELING.
Aunt Susan's Heart Went Out to
"Pore Missus Astor."
Uncle EH felt he knew the metropo
lis pretty well. Had he not been there
three times in four years and twice
he had ridden on the elevated. So
when he brought Aunt Susan with
bim (on the fourth trip) he naturally
assumed the role of guide.
She marveled at everything until
they sat down for luncheon. They
had gone into the Astor house for that
meal, but all its other marvels seemed
lost on the visiting country hostess, as
she looked open-eyed at the crowds
that filled not only the corridors but
the restaurants. Scarcely had they
found seats, when this amazement
took definite shape.
"Eli," said she in a stagey whisper,
"I can't set here an' eat peaceably. I
jes' must go downstairs an' help pore
Missus Astor with the cookin' an'
dishes." Bohemian.
Pure Food.
The pure food law does not prohibit
the sale of Cream of Tartar Baking
Powders because Cream of Tartar is
as pure as Alum but It is a well
known fact that a baking powder in
which Alum is used instead of Cream of
Tartar is less injurious. Dr. Herman
Relnbold, the expert German chemist,
in a recent official report concerning
Baking Powders, declares that a pure
Alum baking powder is better and less
injurious than the so-called Cream of
Tartar powders. He says tftat if the
quantity of alum contained in a suf
ficient quantity of baking powder for
a batch of bread or cakes for an ordi
nary family, be concentrated to one
mouthful of food, and taken into the
stomach of any one person, no matter
how delicate, it could do no harm.

Spson's Eye Water
A'OES OF TELEPHONE LINEMAN.
Ho Was Ambitious, but Grew Dizzy
and Fell Into the River.
"Nearly anyone can become a good
telephone lineman after three or four
years," said a Kansas City electrician.
"A few men, though,' never can learn
the trade because they grow dizzy
when they get to the top of a pole.
V "Safety belts have been worn only
about ten years. Just a little while
before they came into use I had a
man working with me who couldn't
learn to control himself when on a
pole. He could climb all right, but
after he got there he couldn't do any
thing except to hang on so tight hat
he left his nail marks in the wood. .
"One day we were working on a
telephone line close to town, and had
a good-sized audience watching us.
This would-be lineman thought he'd
try to nail some brackets up about
20 feet from the ground. He put his
ax in his mouth and shinned up the
pole. Then he stopped. The natives
came around to watch him and he did
his best, but it was no use. There he
stayed for a full minute and couldn't
put his hands up to get the ax. So he
came down again.
He tried one day to cross on a high
truss we were wiring over, the Missou
ri river. We told him he couldn't do
it, but he went ahead, and, as usual
last control of himself and fell. When
we pulled him out he had changed his
mind about becoming a lineman. Lat
er he went into the-grocery business."

Trouble at the Moore Cottage.
In the Adirondack Cottage sani
tarium, at Trudeau, N. Y., the patients
are supposed to be in bed at ten
o'clock each night. The lights at
that hour are supposed to be extin
guished, and talking is strictly pro
hibited. Any violation of these rules
is reported to the resident physician.
To enforce the rules is part of the
duties of a watchman who has been
with the .institution for years. This
watchman, a middle-aged German,
whose only name, so far as anybody
ever knew, is John, is the soul of
fidelity in carrying out bis duties, and
violations of rules are always re
ported by him without delay.
John is not a college man and some
of his reports are gems of the purest
ray. The other night he heard loud
talking at the Moore cottage. The
lights were lit and he hastened to see
what the trouble was. His reception
was more vigorous than polite, and
next day he formulated this report to
the powers that be:
"Trouble at Moore cottage last
night, ten thirty. Three beds empty.
One bed said 'Go to H .' "
The report is destined to live long
in the annals of the sanitarium.
Miner's Hard Fate.
A Welsh colliery fireman named
Evan Howells died recently as the re
sult of terrible injuries he had sus
tained in a fire in the Rhondda valley.
While the men were working at the
pit bottom the pit "knocker's" clang
ing gave warning that something was
wrong. Howells went up in the cage
to see what was the matter, and near
the top of the shaft he found a fire
had broken out. The cage was drawn
up into the middle of the flames, and
just as the man arrived in the heart of
the fire the "knocker'" wire broke.
and, the signal to stop the cage was
given automatically. The shrieks of
the man in the cage drew the atten
tion of those on the bank, and by the
time the cage had been drawn to the
top, Howell's clothes had all . been
burned upon him. It is stated that the
guide ropes were white with heat, and
as soon as the fan was stopped to pre
vent the fire getting into the pit a ball
of flame rose from the shaft, shot up
by the air pressure.
The Favor He Asked.
. The second floor people had often
been annoyed by the running back
and forth of the little boy upstairs,
but being peaceable folk with an in
fant of their own, they didn't want to
complain. One day a package - of
laundry was left with the second
floor tenants for the upstairs people,
who were out. That night tbe man
of the house took it up.
"I met the husband at the door,"
he explained to his wife afterward.
'and he seemed a very decent sort;
obliged and all that sort of thing.
Wanted to know if he couldn't ac
commodate me some way.
" 'There's just one thing,' said I.
" 'What is ft?' said he.
" 'Have your little boy wear rub
bers in the house.' "
Boxer Chief Well Treated.
Duke Lan, one of the Boxer chiefs,
who is supposed to be in prison at
Sinkiang, on account of his share in
the rising of 1900, seems to be having
a very good time. It is reported that
he is using the Chekiang guild house
as his residence and, as he regarded
the grounds as too small, he extended
them by taking in the adjacent land.
He draws from tle treasury a large
monthly allowance for his mainten
ance, always goes out in an official
chair borne by four persons, with a
large number of bodyguards, and is
very fond of theatrical performances.
The officials, from the governor down
ward, are in the habit of going to his
house to pay their respects twice a
month.
Results Are the Same.
Singleton A scientist claims that
drinking too much coffee will eventual

Wedderly Yes; and telling his wife
that her coffee is "slop" produces the
same result.
HOME-MADE REMEDY
INEXPENSIVE AND EASILY PRE
PARED BY ANYONE.
Is Said to Promptly Relieve Backache
and Overcome Kidney Trouble and
Bladder Weakness Though Harm-'
less and Pleasant to Take.
What will appear very Interesting
to many people here Is the article
taken from a New York daily paper,
giving a simple prescription, as formu
lated by a noted authority, who claims
that he has found a positive rem
edy to cure almost any case of back
ache or kidney or bladder deoxnge
ment, in the following simple prescrip
tion, if taken before the stage of
Bright's disease:
. Fluid Kxtract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syru Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Shake well In a bottle and
take . in teaspoonf ul doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well-known authority, when asked
regarding this prescription, stated
that the ingredients are all harmless,
and can be obtained at a small cost
from any good prescription pharmacy,
or the mixture would be put up if
asked to do so. He further stated that
while this prescription is often pre
scribed In rheumatic afflictions with
splendid results, he could see no rea
son why it would not be a splendid
remedy for kidney and urinary trou
bles and backache, as it has a peculiar
action upon the kidney structure,
cleansing these most important or
gans and helping them to sift and
filter from the blood the foul-acids
and waste master which cause sick
ness and suffering. Those who suffer
can make no mistake in giving it a
trial.
NOTHING HID FROM KAISER.
How German Emperor Keeps In Touch
' with World's Affairs.
The German emperor's interest in
everything that goes on in the world
Is well known, but few are aware of
the trouble he takes to keep in touch
with current affairs. According to a
Munich newspaper, the kaiser reads
at least threej papers every day, chang
ing the list several times a week in
order to become fully acquainted with
the Ideas of all political parties in the
state. But this by no means exhausts
his appetite for information. Every
day the ministry of foreign affairs, as
well as that of the interior, has to pro
vide newspaper cuttings, properly
named and dated, and pasted on slips
ready for the emperor's perusal.
These he carefully reads, making mar
ginal notes as he goes along, and they
are then scrupulously classified and
put aside ready for immediate refer
ence. Often, too, the emperor asks
for cuttings relating to the particular
technical subjects in which for the
time he is specially interested.
FURIOUS HUMOR ON CHILD.
Itching, Bleeding Sores, Covered Body
' Nothing Helped Her Cuticura
Cures Her in Five Days.
"After my granddaughter of about
seven years had been cured of the
measles, she was attacke'd about a
fornight later by a furious itching and
painful eruption all over her body,
especially the upper part of it, forming
watery and bleeding sores, especially
under the arms, of considerable size.
She suffered a great deal and for three
weeks we nursed ' her every night,
using all the remedies we could think
of. Nothing would help. We tried the
Cuticura Remedies and after twenty
four hours we noted considerable im
provement, and after using only one
complete set of the Cuticura Remedies,
in five consecutive days the little one,
much to our joy, had been entirely
cured, and has been well for a long
time. Mrs. F. Ruefenacht, R. F. D. No.

WALKING WITH HEAD DOWN.
The liabit of walking "head
down" seems to be growing upon us.
I can not help noticing that a vast
majority of men are gazing blankly
at the pavement as they proceed.
Are they immersed in thought? Are
the' weak in the neck? Are their
hats too heavy? Do they try . to
avoid acquaintances? Are they en
deavoring to make an ' impression
that they are working out some
giant problem? Is there anything
pretty in the pavement? Are their
shoes attractive? Are they ashamed
to lift their eyes, throw out their
chests and look the world in the
face? How many men do you know
who si- erect in a public convey
ance, eyes on the level, head well
poised on a straight nock? New

IMPORTS SONG BIRDS.
Dr. Charles McCutcheon of Ta
coma, Wash., has long felt that the
woods of the Puget sound district
are too silent and need the joyous
songs of birds to enhance their beau
ty. A year ago he bought a number
of skylarks in England and liberated
them in Washington. They have
thrived and multiplied and now lie
is going to make a similar experi
ment with other kinds of birds.
PROLIFIC GARDEN
ENGLISHMAN'S FIRST AND SUC
CESSFUL ATTEMPTS IN MANI
TOBASOIL PRODUCES
STRIKING RESULTS.
The Winnipeg (Canada) Free Press
of a few days since contains account
of tbe success that 'followed the ef
forts of William Knowles, an English
man who located near Winnipeg, Man
itoba. This is but one of many let
ters giving experiences of settlers,
and should be encouraging to those
who are looking about for a new
home in which they may better their
conditions. The following is a copy
of the article referred to:
William Knowles. who cultivates
some twelve acres of land just below
Middlechurch ferry on east side of the
Red River has probably as fine a dis
play of horticultural products as any
in Manitoba. The whole of his hold
ing is in a high state of cultivation
and literally crowded with splendid
vegetable specimens, which have for
tunately escaped damage by hail, al
though heavy storms have more than
once occurred within a few miles. The
potatoes are a wonderful crop, and he
expects to raise 1,500 bushels from
his patch of iys acres. A half dozen
of tubers selected yesterday average
more than a pound each. Adjoining
the potatoes may be seen a marvelous
collection of tomatoes. There are 600
plants, all gyowing under an enor
mous weight of fruit. One single
stock picked yesterday contained
eighteen tomatoes and weighed four
pounds. This extraordinary example
of marvelous growth, together with
some of the potatoes were sent to the
Free Press office.
The proprietor was the first In
town with several specimens, includ
ing green corn. The season has been
favorable for onions, and one square
patch of nearly an acre is looking re
markably healthy. In addition there
are good crops of cabbages, cauliflow
er, turnips, parsnips, carrots, pump
kins, marrows, cucumbers, celery, peas,
lettuce, rhubarb, etc. The floral de
partment has not been neglected and
a charming display of all the well
known blooms were shown.including
a specially choice lot of asters.
Mr. Knowles, who gained most of
his gardening experience in England,
is loud in his praise of Manitoba soil
for vegetable raising, and is gratified
with the result of his first attempt at
extensive horticulture.

Women Avoid
Operations
When a woman suffering from
female trouble is told that an oper
ation is necessary, it, of course,
frightens her.
The very thought of the hospital,
the operating table and 'the knife
strikes terror to her heart.
It is quite true that these troub
les may reach a stage where an ope
ration is the only resource, but a
great many women have been cured
by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound after an operation has
been decided upon as the only cure.
The strongest and most grateful
statements possible to make come from women who by taking
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
made from native roots and herbs, have escaped serious operations, as
evidenced by Miss Rose Moore's case, of 307 W. 26th St., N.Y. She wntes:-
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-' 'Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has
cured me of the very worst form of female trouble and I wish to express
to you my deepest gratitude. I suffered intensely for two years so that
I was unable to attend to my duties and was a burden to my family. I
doctored and doctored with only temporary relief and constantly objecting
to an operation which I was advised to -undergo. I decided to try Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; it cured me of the terrible trouble
and I am now in better health than I have been for many years."
This and other such cases should encourage every woman to try Ly
dia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound before she submits to an operation.
Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation to Women
Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. From the
symptoms given, the trouble may be located and the quickest and surest
way of recovery advised.
