TOO MUCH WORK
For u Healthy Existence.-That's
Why tho Kidneys SO often Fail.

Nature has provided certain amount
of work for every organ Of the human
body; overtaX them and disease eventu-
ally follows. There is not one por.
ton of our organism that is so overworked
as the kidneys; on them is placed the i'm
portant function of filtering the blood of
the impurities which naturally form in the
regular action of life and digestion. The
kidneys are consequently termed the sew
erage of the system; clog up this sewer,
and the blood becomes tainted with poison
Gus uric acid, which brings on disease
in many forms. The back is the first to
show this stoppage From there comes
the warning note it should be needed,
and the kidneys receive prompt attention.
Doans Kidney Pills will right the action
of the kidneys quickly, relieve the back of
pains and aches, and cure all troubles Of
kidneys and bladder. Read the following:
Mr.. VIM. Nelson is q wcll-known bust
ness man of Kalamazoo, he resides at S22
Portage Street, and his business is that OF
grain buyer. He says:
"For five years have suffered from an
inability to urinate, which resulted from
what was said to be stoppage of the blad
der. During these years l have taken min
cral and electric baths and used other means
in expectancy of getting better, but they
all proved unavailing. Some months ago
began using Doan's Kidney Pills, which
had heard highly recommended, and can
now say that the flattering reports were
not greater than they deserved. I got
better right along, and am free from any
trouble now. feel better than | have
done for three years past If Doan's Kid
ney Pills were well known all over they
would do an immense amount of good.

An Army Hard to Get Into.

There is but one army in the world
that is hard to enter, and that is the
little army of the United States. Most
European armies are hard to keep out
of. since over most of Continental Eu-
rope every able-bodied man must do
military service. The British army is
still maintained by voluntary enlist
ment, though the British recruiting
sergeant has winning ways Of his own
that exercise compulsion upon his
victims different in kind from that OF
the press gang, but almost equal in de-
gree. The recruiting sergeant in the
United States army is not required to
exercise any such influence upon men
eligible for enlistment, for at every re-
cruiting station in this country there
are many more applicants than are
needed A recruiting officer in the
army of the United States may be as
nice as he will in choosing his recruits.
There is no great rush to enter the ser
vice, but there are always many more
men Offering than arr needed. The
physical test for applicants Is extremely
severe, so that only tie soundest men
can stand it, while the applicant must
have fair education and proper certif-
icates of character from at least two
reputable persons. 1t is still true that
less than majority Of those seeking
to enter the service are native Ameri-
cans, but 1t is required that every man
enlistng shall at least have declared
his intention Of becoming a citizen Of
the United States, and the effect Is IL
possible to obtain natives. The stripe
Of men applying is remarkably good.
Germans are now more frequent than
others. Danes and Swedes also present
themselves, and make good soldiers.
The Germans usually have the advar-
tage of having seen military service at
home. Refreshments are frequent, and
as about half score Of non-commis-
stoned officers receive commissions
every year, the man that holds by the
service has a chance to do well. There
is strong prejudice in the English
army against rankers, as these
men that rise from the ranks
to commissions are called, but
there is said to be no such
prejudice in our own army. 1t is said
that favoritism Is unknown in the mat
ter of promotions from the ranks in the
United States army.

herd of buffalo, which, think, diverted
large portion of the wolves from fol-
lowing me. Still some of them kept
after me until 1 got within five miles
of the post, when I had only four rounds
OF ammunition left, and / felt IL was
necessary to make the supreme effort
to escape from them. My horse was
nearly exhausted and bleeding from
the wounds of the wolves, but l put
spurs to him, urging him to his utmost
speed, and reached the bank Of tho
Smoky Hill river, on the side opposite
that on which the post was situated,
completely worn out with fatigue and
excitement, and my horse dropped dead
before I could remove the saddle. I
then waded the river filled with floating
ice."

Grant and Sherman.

In all her letters and writings Mary
Anderson de Navarro's fondness for
the friends of her early days Is clearly
shown. In the Ladies' Home Journal
she recalls some of those who have
passed away, notably Booth, Manager
Macauley, John T. Ford, and thus re-
cords her meeting with and estimate of
General Grant: ut was during my de-
lightful southern tour dhe firsD that
DR.. Griffin presented me to General
then president-Grant, whom he had
known in old soldering days, when the
general had captured and imprisoned
him. 1t was pleasant to soc these enc
mics in war so friendly in times of
peace. Kindliness and simplicity were
marked traits of the president, while
certain ruggedness of manner and
speech that was suggestive of his earl
Ter life gave an additional interest to
all ne said and did. In showing us
over the White House his pleasure in
pointing out trophies was undisguised
and boyish. While lunching with him,
the natural way in which he brought
himself down to the level of my youth
and small experience of life without
touch of that visible condescension so
annoying to the young, was charming"
Meeting him some years after, and fail
ing to recognize him, Mrs. de Navarro
records that after his speaking to her
and announcing himself as General
Grant, before she recalled him, he said
joldngly in response to her confused
utterance that he had 80 changed:
eyes, have grown thinner and paler;
l am no longer president, you see, and
1 am consequently less banqueted."
''It was about this time that
my friendship with General Sherman
also began" writes Mrs. de Navarro.
"He was one of the few eminent men l
have met whose interest in every sub
ject of conversation was so great that
his particular meter could not have
been guessed. He knew much about
the stage, Shakespeare and the drama
generally, and was passionate lover
of the arts, thinking them all worthy or
equal regard. AS critic he was good,
though, perhaps, too enthusiastic over
any excellence, however small, II gen.
uine enthusiasm can be called q fault.
His manner was brisk and hearty. His
personality gave the impression of
rugged strength, so much so that his
entrance into q room waS like breath
of fresh, invigorating air. He scorned
fear and Encouragement Of every kind,
and refused to allow any one to give
way to either"

AN~as.- AS you came down
in our country to
give battle for the
right.
II I'm not so much mistaken, you
found out we "rebs" could fight.
There was something that was weird In
the screech our boys would make,
Sounding like the ''yips" OF blood
hounds who with gore their thirst
would slake,
AS we fought like very demons both on
mountain, hill and dell,
And where'er our lines extended one
could hear the rebel YELL"
Mortimer tell us that at night time,
when they could not see the gray,
They could tell where we were fighting
from the sound like hounds at bay;
And have heard it when we charged
them 'bove the noise of shot and
shell,
For it followed with our bullets, that
blood-freezing rebel YELL"
But the voices that did utter those
most awful screeches then
Have for many years been silent, or
have spake as other men,
But should England ever treat us in
way we liked not well,
Ger her borders would be screeching
that historic rebel YELL"
So, my comrades of the southland, that
were fighting 'gainst the blue,
Get your vocal chords in order, as they
may have need of you,
For "Old Glory" that floats DER us we
our very lives would sell.
But before we had departed John"
would hear the "rebel yell"
