the Sufferer From Kidney
Troubles.

No peace for the kidney sufferer
Pain and distress from morn to

ST., residing at No. Second ST.,
says: 1.-The efficiency of Doan's
Kidney Pills was amply proven in
my case. / suffered from backache
a great deal, often so severely that
L could not turn in bed. In the
morning when l got up, it was a
common thing to feel lame and sore
in the back. Being on my feet so
much of the time in my store no
doubt tended 10 aggravate the
trouble. Anxious To find some re-
lief and n permanent cure, it pos
sible, when | learned of Doan's
Kidney Pills, and saw them so
highly recommended by people liv-
ing near by, l went to j. w. Gayle's
drug store and got u box. 1t was n
glad surprise to me- TO find that
after taking them for day or two
they were removing the pain. |
continued the treatment, and by
the time | had finished the box, the
trouble was entirely removed. Up

schools To inaugurate at the same

is the most expensive part of our
present educational system.

the teacher is the real center of all
education, not the place where
school is kept. A large view of

Where Are Wicked People BurleC
Are the wicked folks immortal?
DO the naughty people die?
Are the wicked sinners buried?
Do the sorry people lie
In a cemetery, hidden,
OvergTown with thorn and weed,
Do they write their wicked doings
That the visitor may read2
All The monuments they chisel,
All the epitaphs they stamp
Are above the good and holy,
Never read about a scamp.)
And an hooest man is craven
AS the noblest work of God,
But the fellow doubled measures
On the country lightning rod,
There's message DER the lawyer
To the idle passer by:
Truthful man beneath is lying,
(And he never failed to lie,)
And faithful kind Of fellow,
Broken up by death, must 60
Pay a debt ne owes to nature
Never paid debt before.
All the folks they ever buried
IRE the best the country had.
Amt the breed a CROWN scarcer?
Amt the world GROWN bad?
Seems the better sort are dying,
Else the cemeteries lie,
That the meauer kind a G living,
That the wicked never die.

When The Wind is in The Cane.
AS the mists afe adrift i'll the meadows,
And the robes Of the evening are spread
On the hills where the poplars are glow
ing,
And the dark and the daylight are wed,
Blended silver and gold i'll the zenith
AS the moon at the gates of the dawn
With the goldo star at her bosom
Creepeth up when The streamers are
gone
Creepeth up shooting arrows Of silver
TO the heart of the hills and the plain,
There's a whipporwill singing, LeoIa,
And the breeze whispers low in the
cane,
In the wealth of the golden September,
Where the winter and summer are mat
In the snow and the bloom Of the cotton,
And the days in their dreaming forget
All the cold Of the dreary December
And the feverish heat Of the June,
Where the roses aud vio1ets blossom,
And the dews .catch the glow OF the
moon
am dreaming again Of Leola,
All the music of pleasure and pain,
And the heart is in tune, rs the breezes
OF the night whisper low in the cane,
the years are her features before
me;
There was night in the deeps of her
hair,
In her eyes were the violets blooming,
Iii her cheeks were the tintings as rare
AS the shades of the SHOWS and the roses,
AS bloom from the garden of dreams.
In her form was the grace Of the willows,
lii her voice was the song of the streams
Singing on to the seas in the shadows,
Smiling back to the sun tretted plain,
And the dream comes again Of Leolas
AS the winds touch the harps of the
cane
Through the days come the dreams of
Leola
And the roees that faded away,
But the fragrance of roses may linger
In tile vase that is shattered today.
AS the breeze is adrift i'll the meadows,
And the quail from his piping is stilled,

Washing Shawls.

The soft, feecy appearance of the
Shetland shawls and other knitted wraps
is often destroyed by careless washing,
and it is well to know just how the work
should be done before attempting 1t.
The white and the delicate tints are OF
course the best colors, and for that
reason are frequently passed by with a
sigh when new wrap is selected. This
is entirely unnecessary, as they can be
perfectly cleared without injuring their
color or fleeciness.
Prepare a strong suds of soft water
and pearline, putting in more of the
powder than is required for other clothes,
as there is a harsh feeling to the wrap
when first washed that requires con-
siderable of the pearline to remove.
Have the suds warm and have another
tub of clear water of the same tempera-
ture for rinsing, says the Housekeeper.
Put in the wrap and wash it about in the
water, squeezing it between the hands,
but do not rub or wiring 1t. If the
water seems much soiled it will be best
to make another suds in the second tub
and give it a second washing; then, be-
fore taking it from the second suds, pre-
pare the warm rinsing water as before.
After rinsing it well put it through
the wringer and hang on the line to
dry in cool breeze. If it is white, it is
best to hang it in the sun; but, if
colored, the shade is best for it. A white
wrap may have little bluing in the
rinse water, but it must be of the best
kind to prevent spots or streaks. A pale
blue wrap is improved in appearance by
the use of little bluing in the rinse
water, but other colors must not have it.
The wrap must be we'll shaken before
putting it on the line, and the shaking,
stretching in every direction, and especi-
ally the swapping out of the fringe, must
be repeated every few minutes until it is
dry.

INDIGESTION CURED.

There is no case of indigestion, Dys-
pepsia, or Stomach Trouble that will not
yield to the digestive and strengthening
influence of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. This
remedy takes the strain off the stomach
by digesting what you eat and allowing
it to rest until it grows strong again.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure affords quick and
permanent relief from Indigestion and
all stomach troubles, builds up the
system and so purifies that disease can
not attack and gain foothold as when
in weakened condition. The constant
ly increasing use of Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure by physicians of hospital and
general practice of itself tells how this
most wonderful modern discovery has
proven to be the greatest digestant for
the alienation of a suffering humanity.
Its many cures of both children and
adults grows larger day by day. Sold

She did not see very much of him

tic and amusing. My mother had Il
great admiration for the "Curiosities of
Literature" and was anxious to make
the acquaintance of Disraelis father,
but there was 4 difficulty about this, us
at the moment he was not on good
terms with his father.
However, lie appeared one day with
his father in tow. AS soon rs they
were both seated Disraeli turned
around and, looking ut his father rs if
he were piece of ornamental china,

Notes on Etiquette.

1t is etiquette to reply to letters as
soon as possible after their receipt, while
business letters should always be ans
wered at once.
Business letters should be as concise
and clear as possible, and the shorter
they are the better, for the simple reason
that really busy people cannot afford
time, even if they have the patience, to
wade through long, rambling COM
munications.
If YOU commence "Dear Sir" then you
can very we'll conclude by signing your
self "Yours very truly"
The golden rule as appertaining to the
beginning and ending of letters is that
each denotes an equal degree OF init
macy, friendship, or affection.
Letters of introduction are given with
the envelope unfastened, as they are pre-
sumed to contain nothing of private
character.
They may be closed by the one to
whom they are handed, and should be
left with the visiting card upon the per-
son to whom add essed.
Letters of introduction should be de-
livered as soon as convenient after arri-
val at a place, thus conveying the idea
that you appreciate the kindness of the
writer and that the new acquaintance is
desired.
Answers to engraved invitations are
always written, being worded in the
third person; but when friendly little
notes are sent, these should be acknow-
lodged in a corresponding way.
Invitation cards with the letters R. S.
V. p. in the lower left hand corner inn
ply that an answer is requested, and this
reply should be sent as early as possible,
for naturally hostess is anxious to
know how many guests she may expect;
and in the case of refusal, time and OPP
portunity is given her of filling up any
vacancy at the dinner table, etc.
Letters of invitation to stay at a house
are written by the hostess, and it really
saves much awkwardness if fixed date
of arrival and departure is mentioned.
1t puts both the guest and hostess at
ease on this point, besides enabling the
guest to make other plans and accept
other invitations.
Such invitations should naturally be
answered without delay, and on the
termination of visit, never omit to send
"a letter of graceful and expressive thanks
for hospitality shown and kindnesses re-
ceived.
When in mourning never omit to write
on black bordered note paper, the depth
according to your degree of loss, etc.
