Doan's Kidney Pills cure all kidney
ills from common backache to dan
gerous diabetes. ~
A. t. Ritenour, owner of the wood
yard at 1875 East Cork Street, Win
chester, Va, says: "Ever since I had
La Grippe I have been a sufferer
from kidney troubles, which made
themselves apparent in racking
pains through the region of the kid
neys and across the small of my
back. The pains were always Sc
we're, and sometimes so sharp and
biting that they compelled me to
take to my bed. The kidney secre-
tions furnished further evidence Of
disorders. They were off color, IT.
regular, and painful of passage.
Added to this there was an annoying
weakness. The: newspaper advertise
ments of Doan's Kidney Pills attract
ed my attention, and L procured a
box of that remedy at Franck Baker
O. Sons drug store. The relief I ex-
p%erienced was magical. The pills
lifted me from my bed of sickness,
placed me on my feet, and made me
a well man. I can work as well as
ever. Doan's Kidney Pills, I believe,
saved my life. They are a great
remedy to stop kidney troubles re-
sulting from colds"

They had not walked through the
streets together for a good while
not wen to church. Horatio Whit
ney was keenly sensitive to the fact
that his overcoat and hat were shah
by. He did not care to remember
how long it was since he had bought
new ones, and he did not want
Martha to remember. So he stayed
at home quietly, and grew a little
grayer and a little older every day.
So he had stayed at home Sunday

gave up urging him after awhile.
The next morning Martha walked
downtown with HOratio, through
Jermyn street. It was a beautiful
day.
Down the street a little way prog
ress was temporarily blocked, and
Horatio and Martha came to a stand
still. A heavy dray was being backed
ross the sidewalk.
They we're abreast of a splendid
plate-glass show-window, and Martha
turned to IT for entertainment. What
woman was ever at loss for amuse-
ment with a show-window at her ell
bow? But this one-Martha turned
away a little Disguised. It was only
a mems furnishing store.
The drayman took his time.
Martha was driven back to the win
dow in self-defense, and it was this
time that she saw the coat that re-
minded her. A little thrill ran over
her, for it was the exact shade-the
soft, deep gray-of that other coat.
1t was not distinguishably different,
either, in style-queer that Is years
should make so little change!
Martha glanced at Horatio's shabby
overcoat. The pitiless sun gave it no
quarter. She saw all it's fadedness
and meanness, and the listless, de-
jected sag of it. 1t gave her a start
Of surprise that she had not noticed
it before. She scarcely ever noticed
Horatio's clothes. They were always

rarely anything to mend.

Almost at once it settled back to it's

Whitney gave up his youth.

"Well, I'm not!" laughed his wife.
"When I'm old, I won't ask you for

"Easter-Sunday after next? Are

FAIRBANKS WILL
OPEN STATE FAIR
indiana Senator Accepts Invita-
ton to Deliver the PrinCi-
pal Address.

Senator Charles w. Fairbanks, of In
diana, will open the next Minnesota
state fair with a speech delivered be-
fore the. grand stand.
This is the latest of the announce
ments which the managers of the fair
have been making from time to time
during the winter and spring. They
regard securing Senator Fairbanks for
the opening address at the fair as one
of the best things they have done in
preparation for this fair of 1903; for
Senator Fairbanks, while one of the
most conspicuous men in the United
States today, is also essentially man
of the people and besides has a special
interest in agricultural matters.
Col. w. M. Liggett, of the board Of
managers of the state fair, has known
Mr.. Fairbanks from boyhood and has
very high opinion of him. both as a
man and as public speaker. Mr.. Fair
banks was born in Union county, Ohio,
near Marysville, and within short
distance of the farm where Col. Lig-
gett spent his boyhood and youth He
was graduated from the Wesleyan uni
versity at Delaware, Ohio, and after
studying law went to Indianapolis,
where he has since lived and where he
has not only acquired a competence,
but has secured the confidence of the
people of his state. Col. Liggett speaks
of him as a boy who was always loyal
to his home, his local school and the
home people, and says that that char
aeteritic is still prominent. Senator
Fairbanks likes to revisit Marysville, to
meet his old friends and to see the old
scenes. Since he became well-to-d do he
has made some gifts of consequence to
the town.
Some time ago an invitation was sent
to Senator Fairbanks by President c..
N. Cosgrove and Secretary E. w. Ran
dali on behalf of the board of managers
of the state fair, and this invitation
was accepted in the following letter
recently received by Secretary Ran
dali:
My Dear Sir: I have your invitation of
the 25th instant, on behalf of the board of
managers fthe Minnesota State Agrcul-
tural society, to attend the opening of
your state fair on Monday. Aug. 81. and
deliver an address. 1t gives me great
pleasure to accept your very generous in
vitation.
Respectfully yours,
Charles w. Fairbanks.

CROWDS FLOCK TO

Ideal Day Brings Out Thou.
sands of the City
ToiIers.

Out at Como yesterday, where ma
ture, with exhausting skill, has carved
each valley, dale and HILL the tired
workers of the week hocked to catch
breath of air, pure and indebted. The
guard at the station platform express
ed the opinion that about 5000 persons
were within the precincts of the park at
o'clock and that the most of tfFem
were from the Mill City. Why this
should be so he did not attempt to eX-
plain, but whether the visitors were st.
Paul or Minneapolis people, surely no
happier, merrier pleasure seekers ever
skinned over the placid surface of the
lake, sought freedom from care IN the
shade of the beautiful trees. watching
the exquisite tints Of the Schiffmann
fountain, or wandered through the
mazes of the various green houses. For
the day was ideal.
Here and there upon the green sWard
might be seen merry parties or families
who had brought their luncheon along
and were enjoying the spread on Ma
lures Verdant tablecloth. Beneath the
shade might be seen young couples OBJ
liViOus of the good natured smiles they
proved; or a young father and mother
who had brought their babe with them
to revel in the beauties of nature.
Every boat was in commission and
dozens upon dozens waited with tick
cts in hand for their turns. The Min
nesota State band occupied the stand;
and the afternoon concert was opened
by the playing of two new marches by
S. Witt the author of THE Moth and
the Flame" These were a march enti-
tied, "The Glow Worm and the Moth"
and a song, when the Fields Are
White With Cotton" both selected from
the musical comedy, Nancy Brown"
SlOane's new excerpts from THE Mock
ingbird." were also we'll received. In
the evening, at S:15 o'clock, excerpts
from "The Sultan of Sulu," caught the
fancy of the large crowd; and the de-
scriptive waltz, Jolly Girls" elected
spontaneous applause. The street car
service was adequate.
At Wildwood an even greater attend
ance was in evidence than at Como,
where the attractions were of a differ
ent nature. In the afternoon e. G..
Czerny, young musician. executed a
trombone solo, "a Choir Boys Dream
in a pleasing manner, and in the even
ing o. r. Joiner played "a Gypsy Love
Song" from Herbert's Fortune Teller"
as a cOrnet solo.
In the afternoon the opening num-
Der by the band was march entitled,
I'm Jonah Man" One of the most
pleasing numbers was "Haidee,' an
Oriental composition, by Lorraine. In
the evening the opening number was
a march, ga Prince of Good Fellows"
and one of the most appreciated even
ing numbers was a selection from
Martha"
The beach and water were well spa
tronized at. Wildwood until late in the
evening. The crowded condition of the
cars caused much unfayorable COM
ment.

instantly became delirious and raved
violently. He was seized and held to
