Careless Postmaster.

It was in the Greenroom club, New York, last week.
 They were talking of peculiar phases of ignorance encountered often in unexpect- ed places Taxed for an experience with in the compass of the symposium, Frank Daniels told this one:
 husband living in Springfield, Mass, was wont to pay surreptitious trips to New York to indulge his passion for the races Whenever he left home he eased the concern of his wife and her mother by pre-esta blshing an alibi, proving his presence in Holyoke, where he operated a business. Forgetting all about his Ho- lyoke alibi during a secret visit to New York one day he wrote his mother-in-law and absent-m -mindedly dropped the message in a corner letter box in Manhattan. When the mother-in-law got the note next morning. she looked at the postmarks on the envelope confusedly. Then she took the envelope to her daughter
 "We'lI have to get after our postmaster, Maria" she said handing the wife the envelope ''See what he's done! Here's a letter that comes from Holyoke, and it's postmarked New York!'

SPRING GUN FOR TIGER.
Putting End to Marauding Expeditions
 of Man Eater.

From the Straits Budget.
 The report that shuge tiger had been seen roaming at large near the quiet little town of Kota Tinggi ere ated a f1utter among its inhabitants. The beast had been foraging around Kota Tinggi and carried off most CT the dogs of the planters and villagers. Consequently planters and villagers stood in fear of their lives.
 A huge bullock the brute disabled with a single stroke of a forepaw, and then. while the herdsmen howled for help, Stripes" walked off with his prey with as much ease as you might with a rabbit. Presently the animal stopped for a meal and while discuss ing 1t MT. Bertus approached within rifle range. The shot which he fired struck one of the upper teeth of the tiger the bullet finally lodging in tho skull over the right eye. The wounded animal then bolted, leaving the par tally devoured bullock by the road side.
 Of course it would return to eat the remainder of the carcass. Accordingly, Mir. Bertus, with some help, put up a fence around it; leaving, however, a V-shaped aperture only large enough to allow for the intrusion of the tigers head. Above this was placed spring rifle loaded with six cartridges. True enough, the tiger returned some time later obtruded his head through the opening in the fence, and the spring gun did it's fatal work as the tiger was in the act of dragging the carcass out. Every one of the six bullets

TODAY IS WOMAN'S
BY MRS. SAM WILL JOHN.

In taking a broad sweep over humanity one finds woman standing foremost as the optimist.
 Today the bar. r.iers that confined her tal- ents to keeping house have been forged asunder, and she is no longer schooled to think that administering to mans physi- cal wants Is the lottiest ideal of her life.
 That woman was made from one of Ad- an1's ribs, symboncal of her standing side by side as mans equal in thought and ac- ton, Is the force that dominates her movements to the summit of life today.
 Marrow, false and jaundlced views of her part in this big world are entertained only by the untnllghtened heather.
 She is here as born beneath the dancing stars, to love, to laugh. to work and to sway a benign influence over all creatures of this mighty world. While today has its selhshness and love of power, yet her 1 dauntless spirit 1scourages every Ham, let's word, How weary, stale fiat and improbable seen to me all the uses of this world!'
 The old regime of bringing her up un- der stern obedience, ded-in-theology, is one of the evils of long ago, plotted out by the love and tenderness made by a
 
 The woman of back ages, never think ing upon subjects beyond the walls of home, blindly accepted mans opinions as the acme of wisdom. She of today, look ing into the heart of the deeps, has found that there was no harshness in Christ's teachings except when He thrashed the thieves from His temple. Such a punish ment His infinite wisdom saw was neces- sary, and He left the healing balm in woman's hands and womans voice. With this ointment she stands as a benefactor and lover of mankind to enrich with grace not only the homes, but all vacations of man.
 Today she may realize her ideals see beauty in everything, not only in people, but in field, forest, birds and animals. | She responds to the calls of the everyday | toiler, conducts his vision to her dancing | star. and teaches him that it is there he l finds a soul and heavenly imaginations- ! that beauty in itself Is the discerning eye ! that sees it in everyday, ugly things

ITS YOUR KIDNEYS.

any doubt in your mind that the kidneys are affected, notice the urine for a few days. If passages are irregular, palntui' or too scanty, discolored, or full of sedi- ment. the kidneys need help right away, and there is no other medicine more helpful than Doan's Kidney Pills, sim pie remedy for the kidneys, yet so pow erful that it quickly cures the cause and so ends all the painful and annoying symptoms. Home testimony proves the unfailing merit of Doans Kidney Pills.
 BIRMINGHAM TESTIMONY.
 Mrs. Herburt A Tucker of TIT Allen street, Birmingham. Ala, says: 'I had spells of kidney trouble for more than two years, and at one time it was so bad that I thought it would kill me. The pain in my hips and back made me take to my bed and I could not get up. The first six doses of Doan's Kidney Pills. which began using at this time, relieved me so that I had no more pain in the back and scarcely any bladder trouble. I kept up the treatment until cured. Since then I have kept box of Doan's Kidney Pills in the house. though I have not felt the need of any kidney medicine up to this time.''
