The White Mans Burden.

Kipllng's lines, 1.-THE White Mans
Burden" have been urged as the excuse
for a great many things that have been
done by the Caucasian race in their
dealings with men of other colors. At
the present time the Germans are fight
ing with the natives in Southwest
Africa; there is trouble between the
French troops and the nomadic tribes
of the desert to the south of Algeria;
the British have a force operating in their
Nigerian territory; the Dutch are stin
carrying on their more than a generation
long war in northern Sumatra. We have
had our own troubles in Jolo and Samar,
and within a few days there has been the
disgraceful scene at Chattanooga and
shortly prior to that the trouble in SPRING
field, Ohio Then there is the terrible
condition which exists under Belgian con-
troll in the Congo. All of which may give
rise to the question whether the white
mans burden" does not rest heaviest on
the colored mans shoulders.-[Boston

in Doan's Kidney Pills today as had seven
years ago when I gave my recommendation
of this remedy for publication. 1 had suf-
fered for some time with disordered condition
of the kidneys and when I learned about
Doan's Kidney Pills I procured box and
began using them. I am glad to say they
acted up to the representations made for
them. During the years which have passed
since my first experience with them have
used them on several occasions when cold or
overwork has brought on slight occurrences of
the trouble, and they have never failed to
bring prompt and effective relief"

go to North Sutton, N. H. to succeed
Rev. DR.. Dwight Spencer. 1t had been
known for some time that the climate
here did not agree with Rev, Mr., Buzz
zell, also that he contemplated going
elsewhere, so that his resignation did
not come as a surprise, but it caused no
less feeling of regret, Rev. Mr. Ruz-
zell and family having been highly re-
spected by the church and community.
The resignation will take effect the last
Sunday in this month. It's text is as fol-
lows: 1T is nearly Is months since l
came to you as your pastor. How much
or how little has been accomplished for
the Masters kingdom only eternity will
reveal. And while 1 have not accom-
plished all that l hoped and possibly all
that 1 might, yet in a certain sense 1
do not feel that my work is finished
here. l find that my health is failing
and by advice of physicians 1 feel that
l must relinquish the work here, and 1
ask you to release me from the work the
last Sunday of this month And believe
me when 1 say that this is one of the
hardest tasks that I have ever been
called upon TO do in my ministry, for /
never served a more united people,-a
people who have ever shown kindness and
sympathy. And l leave you with deep
est love- profoundest gratitude, and with
an earnest prayer that God may richly
bless and reward you and soon send you
a true man who shall be able to better
lead you. Sincerely your pastor, A s.
Buzzell."
