fered for numbers of years with
kidney complaint. There was duh
aching across the small of my back

helped me until got Doan's Kidney

output of few much needed products
and reducing the demand for all COM

has put much wheat and cotton be-
yond danger and brought other crops
nearer maturity. Dealers are pro-
viding for the future little more free
ly, and in several important branches
of industry orders come forward in
greater bulk. Owing to special con-
ditions, the leading branches of manu-
facture do not make uniform progress,
complications as to supplies of raw
material making the current situation
particularly puzzling at the textile
mills and shoe shops. Dry goods buy

Beware Of Ointments For Catarrh That
Contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense OF
smell and completely derange the whole sys-
tenn when entering it through the mucous
surfaces. Such articles should never be used
except on prescriptions from reputable ply
sicians, as the damage they will do is ten fold
to the good you can possibly derive from
them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. ]. Cheney d Co., Toledo, o., contains
no mercury, and is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucoussurfaces
ofthe system. In buying Halls Catarrh Cure

Comparing notes on sons,
The worry they had caused their sires
With horses, boats and guns;
They each retailed the money which
Their escapades had lost them.
And sighed to think of sleepless nights
Those thankless lads had cost them.
Just then Dame Venus happened to
Be passing and to hear;
"Ah, friends" she said. you do not
know
Whereof you speak, fear;
I have son who shoots no guns,
But just bow and arrow,
And yet the damages I've had
To pay would freeze your marrow
