prejudice there had been no reception up

The particulars related by this repre-
sentative citizen of Akron are similar
to hundreds of others in this city.
When there are scores of people all
anxious to tell about the benefits re-
celyed from the use of Doan's Kid

ron must be convinced. Read this:
Mrs. B, w. Whitehead, of 205 Poplar
St, says; "In the spring of 1896 pro.

They cured him of kidney complaint
and up to the present time and it is

have been no occurrences. | have the
greatest confidence in Doans Kidney
Pills and have no hes.tancy in re-en-
dorsing my opinions expressed public

The Cost of Cutting an old Atlas.


In the state department at Washing.
ton is the most comprehensive and
complete set of aliases and maps to be
found anywhere in this country. As
can be readily appreciated, they are
vitality necessary 20 the carrying on Of
the department. and therefore neither
trouble nor expense is spared In keep
ing them constantly up to date. 1t
would be supposed that their extreme
value and Importance would be patent
to every one.
Some years ago, however. one of lhe
most valuable aliases was found with
two Of the maps cut out. The maps
had not been distracted. They had
simply been detached from the bind
ing. Investigation proved the mutila-
ton to be the work of a certain clerk,
who on being hauled up by his superior
explained why he had done it as fol-
lows:
''Those books are terribly heavy and
hard to handle, and so l cut the maps
out in order to get at them easier. The
aliases We're very old. and didn't sup
pose they were of any value or that
any one would care
To the state department an atlas is
like bottle of wine TO judge of fine
drinks-its value increases in direct
ratio with its age. 1t was felt in the
department that that particular clerk
had mistaken his calling in life, and to
him was accordingly given an opportu-
nifty to pursue another one.-New York
Tribune.
