that his paper aims 10 advertise
only the best In its columns, and
when he saw Chamber1ain's Pain
Balm advertised therein for lame

a bottle of 1t for his wife, VINO for
eight weeks had suffered with the
most terrible pains In her back and
could get no relief. He says. "Af
ter using the Pain Balm for few
days my wife said to me, I feel as
though born anew and before
using the entire contents of the
bottle the unbeatable pains had
entirely vanished and she could
again take up her household du-
ties" He Is very thankful and
hopes that all suffering likewise
will hear of her wonderful discov.
cry. This valuable liniment IS for

PLAIN PROOF
What This Gentleman Says Is
a Mere Statement of Facts.

No one can have any reason tor
dissenting from the particulars and
proofs which follow, for verihcation
of the same Is within easy reach OF
every resident of this vicinity.
That Doan's Kidney Pills promptly
and effectually cure kidney COM
plants Is substantiated not only IN
this particular case, but by all who
have given them a fair trial. Test.
mony likewise shows that you do
not have to take them indefinitely
to be cured.
Walter McLachlin, a machine
hand, employed at J. Holiday q
Sons planning mill, Wheeling, .ad-
dress 3oS2 Jacob street, says: Had
I not used Doan's Kidney Pills
when I did I would not be alive
now. "I was In a terrible condition
AMI although I took quarts o. med
iclne I got no better, but worse.
Friends spoke Of my bad appear
ance aud thousands knew about 1t.
1 could hardly get around and felt
and looked like a dead man more
than living one. Doan's Kidney
Pills were a blessing to me, half a
box relieved me, three boxes en-
tirely cured me and now I feel as
though my back was as strong as
that of any horse In Wheeling. I
wonld rather have a box of Doan S
Kidney Pills than the services OF
all the doctors In the State"

The criminal branch Of the District Su-
preme Court will be occupied until the date
set for the commencement Of the hearing
of the first local cause growing out OF the
Post Office Department Investigation with
the trial of murder cases. At least SIX men
are now under indictment here accused OF
capital offenses
When arraigned recently two OF these al
legged murderers entered pleas OF guilty.
Such pleas are not accepted In connectlon
with capital crimes, however, so the cour.
directed the clerk to record that each OF
the defendants had pleaded not guilty. On
all other charges a plea of guilty does away away
eide must stand trial whether they admit
guilt or contend that they are innocent

Learning a Trade"
From st. Nicholas.

From st. Nicholas.
In the general march OF Improvement
specializing was the order of the day, and
the old machinist has been practically re-
placed by a dozen or more skilled workers
in various lines, ALL however, directly con-
nected with the machinist's work. Today
we find the machinist a specialist ire
quently working in very narrow lines, as,
for instance, running a lathe day after day
and month after month and even year after
year, with no change whatever in his daily
routine. Another man will be known as
a planer hand. running a metal planer and
having practically no experience In any
other line of work. Then, we have filters of
various degrees of skill. their business being
to take the parts of a mechanism, large or
small as the case may be, and, by putting
on the finishing touches, either assemble
them into the finished machine or prepare
them for some other workman in the work
of assembling.
AS consequence. learning trade" as
1t Is called today, is a misnomer. Generally
speaking there are few opportunities for
a young man today to acquire the trade OF
a machinist in the shops of this country.
In the first place, establishments are fire.
quently so large that an individual is en-
tirely lost sight of. If he meets his hours
of work and is able to do the work assigned
to him satisfactorily. he is allowed to re-
main at his special line indefinitely. FIRE.
quently the training of years in one shop
will not enable a man to get employment
at good wages in another.
