LOAFIN'.

One time I fixed my work all up.
There want no chores to do,
Says I, I'll jes' enjoy a day Of loa1n'
through and through;
1 won't get up no picnics nor do any
such fool thing,
A-botherin with the victuals an a.
pushin' Of the swing.
1 won't do any readin', cause book
your mind will test,
An when you're thinkin' thoughts, of
course you can't be quite at rest.
I'll have the time my dreamin' has so
long and fondly priced,
An revel in the sweetness of ambition
realized!
So, with both hands in my pockets, l
walked out and viewed the sky;
An then sat down a-waitin' while the
lazy hours went by,
An then I thought I'd lose all earthly
cares in sIumber deep,
An that's the first time in my life
ever couldn't sleep.
I grabbed an ak an jumped right in
fur fair, a-choppin' wood,
To ease my nerves, an nothin' ever
done me so much good,
An I've jes' about concluded, as
think it over anew,
That there amt much fun in loafn'-
'ceptin' when there's work to do.

Ever since l was about three years
of age l have suffered severely with
Kidney Disease.
Last year spent some time at the

MY doctors in Paris and Hamburg
could do nothing for me.

to Montreal, Canada, and when | ar
rived in the Canadian city | was half
dead.
Il read an advertisement of DOdd's
Kidney Pills in a newspaper there and
began to use this remedy, and after
two days treatment | felt that my
pains were leaving me, and in a week
| had no pains at all.
'Dodd's Kidney Pills are the most
wonderful remedy in the world. | keep
them always with me for l believe
could not live without them"

A Chicago Laundry Found That it
Hurt the Business.
About a year ago, said a Chicago
patent lawyer, I secured a patent on
a smoke consumer for a client OF
mine. He came into the Office the
other day, and I asked him what he
was doing with his invention.
''Well," he said, 81 haven't had
much success with it. It's hard
work to get thing like that intro
duced. Last spring, after a lot Of
arguing, l got West Side laundry
firm to try it, with the understand
ing that Twas to take it out at my
own expense if it didn't give salts
faction. After it had been in use a
month or so I thought I'd go over
and see how it was working.
GAS l approached the laundry I
saw that there wasn't a bit of smoke
rolling out of the stack. In fact,
il was almost impossible to see from
the outside that there was a fire IN
the boil r. 1t made me feel mighty
good to see that the thing was work
ing so well, and went into the office
full of confidence.
"fWelI,' I said to the senior part
ner, how do you like your consum-
er?'
GIVE been going to write to you
about that he replied. we want it
taken out
What's the trouble?' I asked
him.
"'You agreed to take it out at
your own expense if it wasn't salts
factory, you know. We have the
contract in writing
"'That's all right I'm not deny
ing that I agreed to take it out; but
I'd like to know what's the matter
with it. I looked at it just now, and
it seemed to be consuming the
smoke all right
"'Oh, it consumes, as far as that
is concerned, but since the smoke
has quit rolling out of the stack a
lot of our old customers seem to
think we've shut down here, ano
they're taking their laundry some
where else

and I can't imagine where we ever

She expressed a desire to hear the

they exercise their voices chiefly in

But who would care with Santa true?

And went to bed when he thought

goats with an armed force. A year
ago Mrs. Irving attracted attention
by appearing in Chicago in the role OF

$1,000 to anybody who could prove
that he was an honest man. As no
body was found who could pass her
tests she decided that honest men
were creatures of the imagination.
Her skepticism has only been
strengthened by her experience at her
goat ranch in Pinon Mesa, where her
herds have been raided by rufians
and robbers. She is said to be backed
in her goat-raising venture by Chi

bark in the manufacture of mohair.
