Leroy Grant, state auditor, with of.
fees in the state capitol, residence
2214 Capitol avenue, Cheyenne, Wyo.,
gave the following for publication in
the month of May, 1899. 1t is exactly
as Mr.. Grant expressed himself, and
should be doubly interesting wnen con.
firmed in the Cheyenne papers. Mr..
Grant said: Il am not counting pub
licity when | state that Doan's Kidney
Pills were used in my family and
brought unequivocal benefit. When
there are so many preparations on the
market, all claiming especial merit, a
sufferer Is in doubt as to which to Sc.
lect. Basing my opinions on actual
facts. l advise anyone annoyed with
backache or weakened or overexcited
kidneys to try Doan's Kidney Pills.
They will moi be disappointed" In the
month Of November, 1902, Mrs. Leroy
Grant confirmed the above as follows:
"Mr. Grant gave for publication in
May, 1899, a statement about Doan's
Kidney Pills. During the three years
and a half which have passed that
statement has repeatedly appeared in
the Cheyenne papers, and Mr.. Grant
has never lost an opportunity of cor
robortating it in personal interviews.
We have told a great many people that
dependence could be placed on Doan's
Kidney Pills, and We know of quite a
few where the treatment brought
decidedly satisfactory results. l am
pleased to re-endorse the original
statement made by Mr.. Grant"

KNEW ALL ABOUT APPENDICITIS.
Jersey School Superintendent Looses
a Little Mistaken Lore.

Many a layman has been "stumped"
in trying to master the intricacies of
the vermiform appendix. But let every
body take heart.
In an aristocratic New Jersey sub
urb recently the superintendent of
public schools was visiting a grade
while a lesson in physiology vas be-
ing demonstrated. The teacher was
explaining the construction of the
spinal column. She compared it to a
string of beads in order to show its
formation, and drew n diagram for
further illumination.
When the lesson was finished the
superintendent suggested that a most
important feature of the spinal col
m had not been explained.
ut is this curious, pointed section
at the base" he said. indicating the
end of the vertebral column. which is
called the vermiform appendix. You
have all heard of appendicitis? Very
good. Well, that is the name given
to a disease which is caused by an in
fiammation of this appendix. An OPP
Grafton for appendicitis means an
amputation of this useless appendix"
There is a new superintendent OF
public schools in that suburban New
Jersey town. T.

lad for Optimism.

One Of the most wholesome fads
that has been prevalent among soci.
ETY. at large is the newest of all-op.
timism.
For it is no longer the fashion to go
about looking as though you bore the
burdens Of the world upon your de-
voted shoulders. But, instead. you're
expected to look blithely upon the
world and its troubles-and your own
troubles, too, says the Philadelphia
North American.
Perhaps it is our free outdoor life
that has developed the quality. Per
haps it is only u new pose-for pub
lie opinion must have its poses. like
every individual.
Surely, it should make happier,
healthier communities out of our cities
and states. Good cheer is more or
less of a habit-pretend to have 1t,
and you suddenly wake up to find
you've really got it. and, too, have cre-
ated a more joyous atmosphere for
yourself. that gradually grows neces-
sary to you.
The happy habit is a good one
much better than the tragic-faced,
world-weary type that preceded it.
May the new fad stay in fashion!

A New York landlord has been con-
verified to the Roosevelt idea. 1t has
been the custom among the landlords
Of Gotham to bar tenants with fami-
lies, but this particular landlord has
opened his heart and invites the par

The Beauty Of Repose.

Sitting and rising may be motions
Of ease and grace or suggest the ma
neuvers Of a seal. To fall into a seat
with a thump and spill all over 1t is
not pretty, nor is it necessary. The
woman who takes a seat in this way
clutches wildly at anything in reach
when she attempts to rise. and strug.
giles awkwardly to her feet. Control
of the muscles will prevent all this.

tice.
