A CHAPTER ON DIRT

Mrs. B is the dirtiest woman
l ever saw"
Maud gasped.
well, she is" / said vindictively.
She sees dirt, smells dirt, hunts
dirt, thinks dirt, and dreams dirt.
She wraps a sheet around her
husbands feet at night, ties a towel
under his chin at table, and makes
him take off his boots at the door.
She dusts with one cloth, and
then compares it with a clean one 70
see if the first has found a grain OF
dust. She covers every register with
white cloth, sweeps her lawn with n
broom. and speeds the parting guest
with a mop
But she always makes me en-
yious." said Maud, weakly, whenever
/ see her beautiful home, always in
such perfect order"
"Enyious!'-with my nose several
degrees higher than its usual altitude
mo true woman need envy her, for
she is the poorest woman I know
She grovels so low that she misses
the sunshine of heaven. the love of
friends, the Ginning touch of little
hands, and the warmth of the heart
Of home.
Her house Is only a place in
which to eat and sleep; and her hus-
band is as homeless as the most for
lorn tramp.
mo child crosses the threshold,
nor runs to meet her with loving cry.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1905-04-13

She Is a living exponent of race sui
eide, and shining example of it's
effects upon the woman of the future.
"lier home is tomb where she
has buried all that makes woman
what God meant she should be whei.
He gave to earthbound Adam this
greatest gift of ALL
Now, I am not very partial to dirt,
myself; but there is dirt-good,
wholesome. dirt-and dirty dirt.
And good clean dirt never hurt
anybody.
/ have not a particle of doubt but
she thinks 1 am poor, shiftless
housekeeper; but it did my soul good
when she came in the other evening

ner, was whistling over his jack

ings. and the wee grille talked
mother" to the array of dollies in a
circle around her. John" went on
serenely mending a piece of old har-
ness, while his boots and other para
phernalla were placed in the disorder
dear to the masculine heart, while
81" as Kipling has it, Just gloated."
The marks of little muddy feet
upon the clean floor can be easier
removed than the stain when those
feet go down into the mud of the
highway of evil.
The prints of little fingers upon
the window pane" can not shut out
the sunshine half so much as the
shadows that darken the mothers
heart over the one "who is but a
name" through coming years.
And If my John finds his home a
refuge from care and trouble, and his
greatest happiness within its four
walls, he can put his boots in the
rocking chair and hang up his coat
on the floor every day in the week.
And If l can stand 1t and he enjoys
1t, can not see that it is anybody
else's business.

4 WEAK, A LAME, on An ACHING
BACK II NATURES WARNING
THAT TIE KIDNEYS
ARE SICK.
Cure Them With Doan's Kidney Pills.

Backache and urinary troubles are
danger signals sent to tell you that
the kidneys are clogged and longest
ed; that the system is rapidly filling
up with uric acid and other poisonous
waste that should be passed OF in the
urine.
Healthy kidneys filter out of the
blood every day more than an ounce
OF poison. But when the kidneys are
sick. this filterlng process is either
hindered or suspended. So the body
can never be well when the kidneys
are ill; and II is because 30 many
people neglect sick kidneys that kid
ney diseases are causing more deaths
than any other human ills.
IL is easy to cure any form of kid
ney trouble with Doan's Kidney Pills
before 1t reaches a fatal stage, and
there are many symptoms to tell you
when you have kidney disorders
The most common of these symp-
toms are:
Pain in the small Of the back. hips,
or sides; pain when STOPPING or lift
ing.
Headaches and dizzy spells.
Nervourness, languor.
Too copious or too scanty dis
charges of urine.
Thick. cloudy, discolored and Ill
smelling urine, with deposits of sed-
iment.
Having to get out of bed at night
to pass urine, etc.
The blood carries the urinous waste
to every part Of the body. 1t gets
into the nervous system and causes
neuralgia or sciatica: 1t gets into the
muscles and causes rheumatic pains
and gout 1t weakens the lungs and
initiates the heart. causing the heart
to fiutter and palpitate: 1t crystal
ICES into gravel and stones In the
bladder and kidneys.
You lapse into general rundown
and languid condition and drift every
day towards diabetes and Bright's
Disease
You may have only one Of the above
symptoms, or you may have several;
but danger turks in every one, and
you should beGin treating the kidneys
at once with Doan's Kidney Pills.
This great specific is composed Of
simple vegetable elements which are
absorbed Immediately by the kidneys
and act on the kidneys alone It
heals and cures diseased tissues, al
lays Inflammation and congestion,
and restores normal kidney action.

PRESIDENT IN BROOKLYN.
Delivers Stirring Address at Unveil.
ing of the Gen. Slocum
Statue.

New York, May 31.-In a stirring ad-
dress delivered at the unwilling of a
big statute of Gen. Henry N. Slocum in
Brooklyn Tuesday President Roosevelt
paid splendid tribute to the men who
composed the northern armies, but did
not forget those of the southern hosts.
Most notable in his speech was an ex-
preston of his hope that as the nation
increased in strength there would
come corresponding increase in its
sense of responsibility which should
prevent its people from either injuring
or insulting other people, and his dec
laration that the surest way for a ma
tion to invite disaster is to be opulent,
aggressive and unarmed. Significant,
in the light of recent events, was his
assertion that:
eff our navy is good enough We have
a long career of peace and prosperity
before us, and the only likelihood of
trouble ever coming to us as nation
will arise if we let our navy become
too small or inefficient. A first-class
navy, first-class in point of size, above
all first-class in point of efficiency, and
the individual unit as units in combi-
nation, is the surest and cheapest
guarantee of peace. l should think
that any man looking at what is hap
pening and has happened abroad and
in our own history during the past few
years, must indeed be blinded if he
cannot read that lesson clearly"
