A FRIENDS ADVICE
viii Often Help You Greatly-Read
What a Mexico Citizen Says.

You may hesitate to listen to the
Of strangers, but the testi-
mony OF friends or residents OF Mexico
is worth your most careful attention.
1t is an easy matter TO investigate
such proof as this. The evidence must
be conclusive. Read the following;
Mrs. ]. L. Hill, Of Breckenridge
street, south side OF the school, says:
"For four years / had trouble with
my kidneys, causing pain in my back
just across the loins, at times very
severe. Often / was so bad / could
hardly attend to my work, despite the
fact that / was constantly taking all
kinds OF medicine. Noticing Deans
Kidney Pills advertised tocure kidney
complaint and that only, l went 10
Buckner s. Whitney's drug store for a
box. After a dose or two / knew that
they were taking effect. A continual
ton OF the treatment thoroughly
proved that Deans Kidney Pills more
than act up TO the representation
made for them. So satisfied was
with the results obtained from then
that / gave them to q child of MINE

fted by the treatment

White Blackberries are Yellow When
Green.

Among the Missouri fruits to be ex-
hibited at the Worlds Fair at st.
Louis next year is the white black
berry. L. A. Goodman, superintend-
emit Of the Department Of Horticult-
ure Of the Missouri Worlds Fair Com
mission, has preserved already several
jars Of the fruit at the st. Louis lab
oratory. One especially fine specimen
Jar Of the berries has just been dona-
ted by II. w. Thles, OF Wellston, who
has contributed generously to several
exhibits underN horticulture. An ap-
parent paradox in connection with
the subject is that the berry is yellow
while green and is white when 1t
becomes a perfect blackberry.

A LITTLE EASY MONEY"
Jeffries Got $500 a Minute, or $32,-
72S Out of His Fight With
COrbett

James j. Jeffries' share OF the gate
receipts in the big heavyweight cham
pionship fight at Frisco was $50, 72s.
The champion earned $500 a minute
for every minute he faced Corbett in
the ring. The latter's share u gate
money was s10,eo9, a tidy sum for the
ex-champion.
When the match was arranged it
was generally believed Corbett would
not have a hook In, but later, when II
was learned that the ex-champion had
fortified himself with a thick coating
OF muscle, WA pounds heavier than
ever and therefore a much harder hit
ter, he was given an outside chance.
1t appeared that the Jeflries who
faced Corbett was not the same man
who defeated Gus and Bob. He was ..
new man in every point Of the game.
He wa faster, more aggressive, better
schooled--in fact, so per cent. better
than the Jeffries OF one, two or three
years ago. He proved himself Cor
belts superior in every point OF the
game.
Corbett acknowledged after the bat
tie that Jeffries' improvement in the
finer points Of the game surprised
him. Stu, after the eighth round
some thought the plan OF battle he
had mapped out would land him a
winner at the end OF the twenty
rounds. But, as Corbett stated after
the fight, a left hook which landed In
the pit of his stomach In the second
round convinced him he had nc
chance.
He said: "It was the hardest blow
| ever received in a fight and knocked
my plan Of battle completely out Of
me. How / ever recovered from it il
beyond my conception. The blows
which sent me down for the count
after that did not hurt me as much al
: did that, but they took the wind oul
OF my sails, nevertheless

SOME people seem to be troubled a
great deal in reference to who will
run Hon. Joseph Folkn II he becomes
Governor of Missouri. We don't De-
lIeye there need be any trouble about
this matter, as we presume Mr.. Folk
as Governor would be controlled by
his ideas of right and wrong as he is
while serving as Circuit Attorney of
ST. Louis. Mr.. Folk seems to be con-
trolled by his conscience rather than
BY individuals.

"a donkey stepped into a store and
the proprietor approached the beast
and asked: What are you doing herei
You know this is no place fort donkey.
4 am here, said the donkey, because
saw your advertisement On the fence
that surrounds my pasture. l know you,
too, must be a donkey or you would
place your advertisement in a paper,
where IT would be read by people, not
donkeys. Being lonesome to-day
thought i would be neighborly and
