The Apostle Paul could not be ac-
cused of being prohibition crank,
he was not fanatic, he could see
all sides of question, he never laid
down a prOsposition that was I'M
tenable, he was master of logic and
he had heart big enough to APP
preciate the conditions under which
all men are placed. In his day. as
now, there were many burning is
sues and fiery discussions. Personal
liberty and sumptuary laws were
unknown terms in his day, but the
facts involved were the same. There
were those who brushed aside all
considerations but those which were
personal and there were those who
were fierce IN their denunciations
of such people. Now-said Paul
it is perfectly lawful for this man to
act as he does, you have no right to
say it is not. But instead of stand
ing up for his rights, it would be
more Christian thing to abstain
from doing what it would do him
no harm to do, for the sake Of the
weak brothers who think different
ly." That is the sublime teaching,
strength bending down to weakness,
that the weak may itself sometimes
be strong.

Tom Blowett raised a fine mustache
during his quarantine, but his many
friends poked SO much fun to him
about it that he went to black
smith shop and had it amputated.

Weak KIDNEYS MAKE WEAK BODIES
Kidney Diseases Cause Half the Common
Aches and Ills of johnson
City People,

As one weak link weakens chain, so
weak kidneys weaken the whole body
and hasten the final breaking-dow
Overwork, strains, colds and other
causes iniure the kidneys, and when
their activity is lessened the whole
body suffers from the excess of uric
poison circulated in the blood.
Aches and pains and languor and
urinary ills come, and there is an ever
increasing tendency toward diabetes
and fatal Brights disease. There is
no real help for the sufferer except kid
ney help.
Doan's Kidney Pills act directly on
the kidneys and cure every kidney ill.
johnson City cures are the proof.
L. s. Jones, electrician, twenty years
q resident of johnson City, now living
on King street, says "My belief in
Doan's Kidney Pills as remedy of
rare virtue was based upon personal
experience They we're used by myself
and wife for backache and other results
of kidney disorders with the utmost
benefit. have bought them freqently
at the store of Patton Drug Co., and /
do not hesitate to recommend them al
worthy of trial by all sufferers from
backache and other kidney troubles,
for know they can be relied upon"
For sale by all dealers. Price 80 cents.

New Electric Lamp.

A new electric lamp, which promises
to revolutionize the present system of
incandescent lighting, has been invent
ed by an Austrian chemist after many
years of experimenting. The principal
cost at present of incandescent bulbs
is the expensive flament wires, which
soon wear out This new lamp has q
substitute for the glow thread by form
ing one out of common and cheap met
ais and metalloids. The new lamp
hardly needs one quarter of the electric
current which the ordinary electric
lamp with a tilament wire requires.

listen TO long stories not pertaining t.

They have discarded the old RENE

suit specialists of reputation.

ma mont c,1r,as obtained
