years I suffered
with -terrible pain
in my back. I ex
perimented -with
doctors and medi
cines , but got little
if any relief. I
actually believe
the aching in my
back and through
the groin became
worse. I did not *
know what ft wa
to enjoy a night' * ,
rest and arose in
the morning feel
ing tired and unrc-
freshed. My suf
fering sometimes
was simply Indescribable. Finally I
saw Doan's Kidney Pills advertised
and got a box. After * few doses I
told my husband < bat I was feeling
much better and that the pills were
doing me good. When I finished thatj
box I felt like a different woman. I
didn't stop at that , though. I continued
the treatment until Ihud taken five
boxes. There was no recurrence until
a week ago. when I began to feel mis
erable again. I bought another box
'and three days' treatment restored mete
to health. Doan's Kidney Pills act
very effectively , very promptly , relieve
the aching pains and all other annoying
difficulties. I have recommended theni
to many people and will do so when' '
opportunities present themselves. "

What a boon it is to shake off coffee
sickness and nervous headaches as some
can if determined upon.
One woman accomplished it in this
way : "A few years ago I suffered ter
ribly from sick and nervous headaches ,
being frequently confined to my bed two
or throe days at a time , the attacks com
ing on from one to four times in every
month , 1 tried medicines of all kinds ,
but could jiet no real relief until my
parents finally persuaded me to quit the
use of coffee altogether and try Postum
Food Coffee. It had come to a point
where I was so utterly miserable that I
was willing to make any reasonable trial.
"A person couldn't believe what fol
lowed , but the results speak for them
selves ; that was two and a half years
ago , and I have never tasted coffee since.
I use Postum not only for its delicious
flavor , but more for the good it has done
me. All of my troubles disappeared as
if my magic and I have for the past two
years been doing all the work for my
family of six. I seldom have even a
slight headache and I would not give up
my Postum and go back to coffee now
unless I deliberately intended to commit
suicide.
"All my neighbors , it seems to me ,
now use Postum in place of coffee , and
some of them have been doing so for
several years with splendid results from
the health point of view. " Name given

When Great-Uncle Henshaw's letter
brought the invitation for Jiminie to
spend his vacation at Dovedale , there
was grea- excitement in the household.
Uncle Kwishaw was the distinguished
membe.t. * " thf1 family , rich , unmarried
and old ; mic' as Jiinmie's mother said ,
"No one knew what might happen. "
Of course Jimmie's father laughed at
that , and. Raid he hoped Uncle Hensh
would live forever. Whereupon his
wife said she meant nothing of the
kind , only Jimmie alone remained
calm He had never seen Uncle Hen-
shaw. He wondered vaguely whether
he would like the gr at man.
"What kind ia he ? " he asked.
"Why , " began his mother , and paus
ed , at a loss for a description which
should be impressive without being
vulgarly snobbish , "why , he almost re
ceived the nomination for governor. "
"Is that .1 kind by itself ? " asked
.Tinimie , with unc. nscSous irony.
His mother said .liimnie was so like
his father that she did not believe it
was n bit of use for him to make a
visit sit Dovwlnle. But despite the un
promising outlook , she spent the time
before his departure striving to make
him ns unlike his father and himself
as possible by words of admonition
and caution.
Jimmie's parents saw him off. Great
was their surprise to have him return
ed two days later with si note. The
note was written on one of Uncle
Henshaw's visiting-cards , and was
brief :
"Your son will tell you why he was
sent home. "
"It must be something that you
said , " Jimmie's mother began. "After
all I said to you. too ! "
"No , honestly , mother , I never said
a thing ! " protested Jimmie. "I only
asked questions. "
"Then it was something you did , "
affirmed his mother. "What did you
do ? "
"Not much. " said Jimmie. with a
reddening face. "I just caught the
goldfish in his aquarium. "
"How many ? " asked Jimmie's
father.
"I don't know. He got there before
I could count up. "
"Oh. how could you be so cruel ? "
said his mother. .
"I don't know. " said Jimmie des
perately. "I didn't feel cruel. Truly ,
I didn't. But that was the only thing
I could think of that you hadn't told
me not to do. "
WHERE WALKING IS WORK.
In Constantinople It la a Pierce and
Active Strujjirle.
To walk , in Constantinople , is like a
fierce and active struggle. One should
look at once before , behind and under
neath one's feet ; before , behind and
underneath one's feet some danger or
disgust is always threatening. I never
walked up the steep road which leads
from the bridge to Pern , without feel
ing that I was fighting my way
through a hostile city , says a writer in
Harper's Magazine. A horn blows
furiously , and si black man runs up the
hill , clearing the way before the dash
ing and struggling hcrses of the tram.
At the same moment a cab drives at
full speed down the hill , and the horses
set their feet on the pavement , In
front of you a man balances slices of
offal on a long pole across his shoulder :
they dtingle before and behind ; he
swings cheerfully with his burden
through the crowd. A Kurd , stopping
under a weight hearier than himself ,
follows , step by step , behind you. A
dog with a red wound behind his ear ,
and a long strip of mangy skin on his
back , 118 asleep in the middle of the
pavement. You step into the road to
avoid the dogs and the hamals , and
wheels and horaea are upon you. You
step back into the midst of the dogs
and. the hamals ; as you stand aside for
a moment a beggar with a handless
arm rounded into a stump , a woman
with her face eaten away in the cavity
of the hood which she draws back be
fore you. appears suddenly , filling what
had seemed the only alley of escape.
The sun soaks down into the narrow
street ; the smell of the mud rises up
into your nostrils , mingled with those
unknown smells which , in Constant !
uople , seem to ooze upward from every
door and window , and pour out of
every alley , and rise like a cloud oul
of the breath snul sweat and foulness
of the people.

Staunton , Ark. , Aug. 31. News
comes from Duff. Searcy Co. . this
State , that Mr. T. E. Reeves , a Justice
of the Peace at that place , has written
a letter recommending Dodd's Kidney
Pills in which he says :
"I think Dodd's Kidrey Pills can't
be beat for Kidney Trouble , and I
wish them every success. "
The local J. P. , Mr. E. B. Cor , agrees
with his brother Justice on this point ,
for he says :
"I had n bad case of Kidney Trouble
end was not able to do a day's work
without great distress. I bought six
boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and after
I had used three boxes I was all right.
I am as well sis ever , and I cannot
praise Dodd's Kidney Pills too highly.
"I have given the other three boxes
to some friends of mine who had found
out what it was that had cured me so
satisfactorily and quickly , and they all
epeak highly of Dodd's Kidney Pills. "
