WILT a WOMAN THINKS

Kindness is the secret of courtesy.
A man is poor indeed who is poor in
charity.
Children behave when out as they
behave at home.
Lots of women have dresses they are
afraid to wear.
How many times have we spent tn
money we have lost?
A man never loses any of his self
respect by an honest apology.
Is there any state more to be pitied
than kittenish, giggling old age?
A designing woman-the dressmak-
er.
A man never throws himself away
until he is worthless.
1t costs much more to avenge- a
wrong than to suffer it.
To be able to read aloud is TO be re-
garded as an accomplishment.
The clever woman always laughs at
mans jokes, even if she has heard
them before.
How many people can find a chap Ell
in the Bible without looking at the m
dex?
The woman with a sour face ought
TO apply for a position in pickle fac
tory.
When a young author puts lots of
color in his stories he usually intends
them 10 be read.
There is only one man who finds
that ii pays to make fool of himself
the circus clown.
The devil. a contemporaneous phil
osopher assures us, owes much of his
success to the fact that he is always
on hand.
Some women wear simple gowns
with an air of elegance that is entire
ly lost in the magniflcence of another
woman's toilet.
The aim of the well-dressed woman
is not so much TO follow the exact line
Of fashion as TO adapt 1t to her own
individuality.
When a boy begins TO be particular
about the crease in his trousers IL is
a pretty sure sign of an attack of the
first symptoms of love.

DOWN ON THE FARM.
TilIers of the Soil Appreciate the Lit
tie NOnder-Workers

Near the little town of Woods Cor
ners, about six miles from Ionia, resides
r. l.. Pierson, a farmer by occupation,
and like all hard working tillers of the
soil he has found the burdens the back
must bear no light load to carry. Few
people who never lived on the farm APP
preciate what il means TO follow the
pillow from sunrise TO sunset, but if the
public in general don't know how hard
such work is, the kidneys do. Long
hours of work of any kind means long
hours for the kidneys, and they can't
stand it without rebelling. When the
farmer comes home tired out at night,
if he only realized that the tired feel
ings mostly always come from tired
kidneys, and that the little wonder
workers, Doan's Kidney Pills, would
right the wrong brought on by over
work, life would be easier for him.
Read what Mr.. Pierson says about his
experience:
Il noticed when / stopped, lifted or
changed my position suddenly, early
in the fall of 1897, that l was always
rewarded with sharp pains across the
small of my back, and in the morning
/ was so lame and sore that l could
scarcely get out of bed. The too fire.
quent action of the kidney secretions,
especially annoying at night, plainly
indicated that my Kidneys were the
cause of the trouble. j had often heard
Doan's Kidney Pills spoken about by
my neighbors, and as it was the first
time / required such a preparation /
procured a box. l noticed their bene-
fetal effects in day or two, and l con-
tinued the treatment until my back
ache was cured and the other weakness
was thoroughly relieved. ] make no
mistake when / say that Doan's Kidney
Pills cure backache and kidney COM
plant"
Doan's Kidney Pills are sold by all
dealers. Price so cents per box, or six
boxes for $3.50. Mailed by Foster-AIil-
burn Co., Buffalo. n. Y, sole agents for
